Hello! Thank you so much for your hard work, people :D I found lots of amazing fic from here and I must say, I very much appreciate it. The titles you people recommend are always amazing.

I wanted to ask for your help on recommending me fics in which Crowley is a human and Azi an non-human, if possible? Preferably Azi as an angel, but anything is fine. I've read when it was Human Azi and Demon (or other non-human entities) Crowley, so I was searching for the opposite. Once again, thank you!

Hi! You can check our #human crowley for more fics like this. Here are some to add to the collection...

There was something … wrong … about Aziraphale. Well, not wrong, exactly, but not right either.  Not … normal. No matter how nice he was, there was no getting around the fact that Aziraphale was too weird to pass for a high school student. That didn't mean that Crowley didn't want to be his best friend.
"Uh, are you a demon?” His face crumbles, clearly distraught by the implication, and Crowley winces. He shakes his head vehemently, “Oh, Heavens no. Quite the opposite, really.” Before Crowley can question whatever that means, he raises a brow, considering, “Were you attempting to summon a demon? I don’t believe that would be a very wise course of action. Awful company, demons are. They have never been known for their manners, I can assure you.” “Er, right. I’ll take your word for it… Wait, no, I wasn’t trying to summon a demon!” (Or, Crowley accidentally summons an angel, attempts to find his soulmate, fights some demons, and falls in love.)

Guarding Anthony by Magnolia822 (E)

When middling angel Aziraphale is assigned as guardian to one Anthony J Crowley, aging playboy and heir to an industrial fortune, he finally has the chance to prove himself to Heaven and earn his place on Earth. Armed only with the compendious yet vague Binder of Guardian Angel Protocols, he must learn to trust his own instincts if he is to stop Crowley from self-destructing. Anthony Crowley has been living his life in the shadow of a tragic incident from his past. He never expects help to come from the most unlikely quarter: a dowdy, yet intriguing, bookseller named A.Z. Fell. Neither of them expects to fall in love. But on this crazy place called Earth, anything can happen. Can't it?

Pure of heart by taj_mahal (G)

After a particularly harrowing day in heaven, trying to avert the Second Coming from the inside, Aziraphale decides to treat himself to a visit to earth to indulge in one of his most treasured earthly delights – a meal at a new up and coming restaurant in London. He is not prepared for what he finds.

Who wants to live forever? by jessescreations (NR)

Antony Colby is a young man living in London, who is suddenly plagued by nightmares of fires, angels and demons. In search for simple answers he discovers big errors in his life - trying to make sense of things, he comes in contact with a bookshop owner who seems to know more than he wants to admit and the longer the search goes the larger the pile of questions grows - in the end of it all Antony Colby has to make a choice or Crowley is punished with a mortal life and does not remember the past 6000 years.

The Mourning Star by RavenMelon (M)

In the aftermath of the thwarted Apocalypse in this alternate universe, Crowley has forcibly lost his memory and taken on a humble life as a greenhouse keeper in Upper SoHo. Meanwhile, Aziraphale, believing Crowley perished during the tumultuous events of heavenly punishment, has adopted a young girl he named Nebula in his process of healing. Their paths unexpectedly cross when Aziraphale seeks horticultural knowledge for Nebula, leading to a heart-wrenching reunion with a forgotten past. Will the Angel be able to find new happiness? Will he bring his Crowley back to him from beyond?

"Though I've lost you, I'll never forget you, I cannot forget you, my love, my love, my love..." - Pray For Us, Icarus

I recently binged season 1 of Good Omens. Perfect timing too, with season 2 releasing so soon. I quite enjoyed the first season, and am thoroughly excited for the next one! In the meantime, I found a recommendation for the fanfic series, Pray For Us, Icarus by Atalan. oH BOY it hit me in the feels like a ton of bricks. I very much enjoyed it. Read the whole series in less than 24 hours. Highly recommend giving it a read.

While I was reading, I knew I wanted to draw something for it. A few ideas were floating around in my head as I continued through, but when I got to this sentence...

"And it was like being hit by a wall of water, like being bowled over and bruised and broken and baptised, like taking a breath and drawing water deep into his lungs, so much water he could barely hold it within his skin, too many memories, too many lifetimes, flowers and music and fear and loss and Aziraphale, Aziraphale—"

..it was like instant inspiration. Immediately I had the whole scene in mind. The figures inside the silhouettes, Crowley near drowning in his own mess of memories, Aziraphale watching helplessly. Aziraphale tied to his duties, Crowley tied to an unknown force dragging him deeper under the surface...

Man, I'm always so happy when an idea in my brain looks good on paper too. Sometimes I need to remember to trust the process, even with my own work.

Hope you enjoy! :D

This is the bouquet I made for “Flowers for Anthony” at the start of Pray for Us, Icarus (G/T) by Atalan, a truly lovely story.

It has daisies for loyalty and faithful love, allium for patience, and pink carnations for “I’ll never forget you.” I couldn’t find/make all the flowers mentioned in the story, so I added campanula for attraction and maturity and poppies for loss and death. I also added the blue cornflowers which stay fresh if your love is returned but otherwise fade quickly.

oh my. i may have to look up some actual titles and stuff, but off the top of my head... and in addition to anything you wrote!

current bedtime story is the quiet man by ivy blossom as read by ffinnagain, one chapter at a time, on their wordpress blog https://fffinnagain.wordpress.com/

which is awesome because each chapter is just the right size for a bedtime story. (i have also lost count of how many times i have listened to the reading on ao3 which is in a few massive chunks)

pretty much any podfic by @gorillazgal86 but especially pray for us icarus, which i am savoring for a second time.

old vines by sevdrag is one of those wips with huge chapters but which i got sucked into early on and have to drop everything to read when it updates.

also a bunch of fics in the good omens rom com group; that go-events tumblr is a real hazard, i mean, gift to fandom. like the tadfield cheese rolling one (=groundhog day).

i also re read Truth may vary, yet again, by amalnahurriyeh. i just want to give that whole fic a big hug i love it so much.

i will think of a bunch more as soon as i post this

"I'd marry you, you know, if it were permitted for men like us."

A year ago I've read a fic that inspired me to pick up the pencil again, after almost 10 years of inactivity. Since then I bought a tablet and been drawing like crazy:) That story was Pray for Us, Icarus by @brightwanderer and this particular era stuck in my memory so much I've always wanted to portray it. Thank you, bright, for your works ❤️
