Good Omens. Fic recs.
To quote ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
promethia_tenk:
There's something about this fandom in particular that I think this has helped me put my finger on, which is that it is so entirely focused on how people show they love each other? Like, that's it, that's the fandom. No wonder we're all just walking piles of goo at this point.
So, here come a few recs. The thing to do, obviously, is just to go on AO3 and follow the Good Omens tag, but there is SO MUCH so to be honest this is mostly a way for me to keep track myself. And to highlight a few truly amazing and unusual contributions.
Also, just look at THIS (can't be described). Very short, no spoilers, but the creator(s) are just made of joy and love.
Or Michael Sheen talking about reading fanfic.
Although speaking of, this is a fic that he admitted to reading, and ye gods, it's magnificent:
Salinity (And Other Measurements of Brackish Water), 3455 words
Summary: It's an odd thing, getting on after the End of the World. Crowley takes to sea-watching.
First of all This rec list from Tumblr. This is where I started and I just... *hands* Go read them all (well, there's everything from very chaste kisses to NC-17 stuff, it's all labelled.)
Rec list from DW
More Tumblr recs
And yet more
Individual recs:
This is technically not a fic, but it's delightful and made me laugh and then wibble quite a lot.
i'd like for you and i to go romancing by dollsome, 6748 words
In which people keep mistaking Crowley and Aziraphale for a couple, and Aziraphale starts to wonder if there might be something to it.
In Holy Matrimony by Myracuulous, 6129 words
Crowley and Aziraphale get married. As told by their confused but heroic wedding planner.
what a way to make a living by attheborder, 5016 words
In which Aziraphale is an introvert and Crowley becomes an Uber driver.
Once Meek, and in a Perilous Path by rainjoyswriting, 4324 words
An angel and a demon walk into the High Wycombe Travelodge... (FitB re. the bus journey back to London)
Obligatory wing fic:
Birds of a Feather by Kedreeva
A collection of unrelated platonic wing!fic involving Aziraphale and Crowley.
And owlboy has written a lot of snake-fic (and brilliant it is too, just follow the link & start reading):

And then:
YOU’VE HEARD OF WINGFIC, GET READY FOR THE NEW WEIRD THING: NESTING FIC.
Just this concept post is worth reading on its own. For more, just go to AO3 and go on the ‘nesting’ tag. God I love fandom.
Last, but not least, because this is... No, no words:
Discredit - Excerpts from A.Z. Fell and Co.’s Yelp Page (Part 1)
Discredit - Excerpts from A.Z. Fell and Co.’s Yelp Page (Part 2)
This is difficult to describe, the creator calls it ‘picture-fic’. Suffice to say it is ridiculously brilliant and funny and just go read it.

Thank you! :) I found it on t'internet somewhere... *waves hand vaguely* and cropped it down. Or re-sized it or something. I forget.
I should look for icons about this...
If you find some, let me know! All I've got is what I've found on fandom icons, and this one which I made myself in about 5 minutes and keep meaning to update...
