    Summary

    When Aziraphale, former Supreme Archangel of Heaven's Third Choir, is unexpectedly invited to the South Downs Antiquarian Book Fair, he is not only forced to contend with the chaotic antics of humanity, he is also thrust back into the orbit of one Anthony J. Crowley: his cosmic adversary, best friend, and, despite their eight-year estrangement, the object of his incessant desires.

    As he is confronted by old ghosts, older choices, and a village determined to drag him back into the messy, inconvenient business of being known, Aziraphale is forced to confront a truth he has spent years avoiding:

    Freedom is easy. Living with it is not.

    (A Good Omens romance with the DNA of Jane Austen's Persuasion. Updates every Thursday.)

    Summary

    “I thought you’d be dead to the world by now,” Aziraphale says, despite having brought in tea for two. He sets the tray on the bedside table and then sits in the open crescent of rumpled duvet beside Crowley. “Are you feeling quite sated after your swim?”

    “Depends on your idea of sated, I s’pose,” Crowley mumbles, both golden eyes barely cracked open in the late morning light filtering in. “Took the hard edge off a bit, yeah, but there’s always something left to be desired…mmh. Quenched, maybe, is a better word.”

    Aziraphale gently arches a brow at this but reaches for his cup of darjeeling. “Is there?” he asks, blowing at the steam curling off the top. “Give me an example of these things you find yourself needing quenched.”

    Crowley snorts and lets his jaw crack around another wide yawn. “If you wanna play charades about it, angel, you can come under this duvet and I’d be glad to give you a demonstration.”

    Summary

    Post Season 1, pre Season 2 events;

    After saying farewell to the flat in Mayfair, Crowley spends his first night with Aziraphale in the flat above the bookshop. Permanently. For real-real, this time.

    It's a long-standing place of familiar comfort and warm welcome, but turns out there's a whole hell of a lot more to unpack than just a few boxes and some unwitting houseplants.

    Summary

    It’s all ever so new still, is the thing — the cottage, the us, the touching Crowley so intimately in a bed they can call theirs. A matter of months, not millennia. Not yet.
