Good Omens Fic Rec: Oh, Maker
"The humans are strange and graceful as they explore the garden, explore themselves, explore each other. The trouble is, the humans stare back, which makes him uncomfortable; there’s nothing particularly interesting about him. And, though he rarely admits it to himself, the humans make him lonely; he has no Other to explore."
Or: how many times can you take a bath with your best friend before you kiss him?
Length: 57,034 words
AO3 Rating: Explicit / Spice Level 🔥🔥🔥
Best for: Mostly Safe in Public, At Home, Angst, Romance, Slow Burn
Triggers: None/ Religious Trauma themes
Read it here, fic by voluptatiscausa
*Minor Spoilers* I've had this fic bookmarked for months, I love this author and all the stories of theirs I've read. But my ADHD often has me piling on more without diving into what I already have saved. So, when I was about to begin the author's latest fic, I paused. I realized I needed to prioritize this story first, and appreciate it fully. And now, I want you to do the same!
This is a pre season 2 "through the ages" story, visiting some of the historical settings we're familiar with and adding new ones as well. We watch as the weight of the world hangs on Aziraphale and Crowley’s shoulders. The impossibility of alleviating human suffering, the pain of being abandoned by their Creator, their Mother, and the lingering desperation for her approval. So when they've burnt out, they turn to each other. They comfort each other with warm intimacy through baths, manicures, brushing each other's hair, each taking care of the other and showing us how holy love can be. It's gorgeous and heartbreaking all at once. Their love is so true, even if they have trouble believing they're worthy of being loved and desired. “It’s because love can’t be earned, sweetheart. It’s given.”
The beauty of fanfic is that it can exceed the canon. This is not just in character; to me it's more in character than the canon itself. The book and show are comedies; they don't have time to dive this deeply into their characters' motivations and histories. And, of course, that's not a bad thing, especially since it brought us all here. But when I read something like this, something that brings a real depth and understanding to the characters, I'm amazed. This isn’t the only fic I’ve felt this way about, but it’s a prime example of that feeling. It’s just that, when I read a story that specifically focuses on their entire 6,000 years together and all the history they’ve gone through, I get frustrated that those moments are played for laughs in the book/show. The Flood, the Crucifixion, the Spanish Inquisition all throw away lines that don’t stop to dive into the wealth of story that’s possible there. I get why it doesn’t linger, I do, but fic narratives are so much more interesting to me than what the canon alone can provide.
This is a deeply moving and powerful story. Full of musings on shame, desire, religious trauma, and the beauty of the world we live in. Life is a terrible and wonderful thing. While this is mostly safe for public, I really suggest making this an at home read. It's a bit heavier, something you want to be in the right headspace for, and it features very rich prose. Never dense or hard to follow, but very beautiful, and you'll want to give it your full attention. I realize I may have made this seem like full angst, but it’s not! There's some wonderful loving fluffy moments to be found as well. Be sure to check out the other works that belong in this series! They are devastatingly good as well. Pair with some fruit for the full effect!

Might I recommend my own fic? I just overcame my writer's block and It's the first I ever posted, so I'm quite proud of myself. I hope someone will have a good time reading it :)
Malady - Chapter 1 - miniyoongi - Good Omens (TV) [Archive of Our Own]
Thank you!
Malady by miniyoongi [NR]
Stubbornness is going to kill him one of these days. No, love is. Because for what other reason would Crowley find himself seated on Aziraphale's couch, smiling indulgently at what the angel was saying while his side was on fire? With spots dancing before his eyes and his mind getting groggy, all he could think of was "pretend". The Angel mustn’t worry.
Takes place sometime after season 1, but before the events of season 2. Hell hasn't sent anyone in as Crowley's replacement yet, so he still has his apartment.

Game Over
TK accidentally lets something slip during game night at Carlos' place.
AO3
It's a few months after they officially became an item. It didn't take long for TK to be at Carlos' almost 24/7 when they weren't at work, especially once his mom came down and covid hit. At first, his excuse was to keep Carlos in his circle or to get away from his parent, but Carlos could tell TK would be there regardless of the circumstances.
TK made himself at home. Carlos made sure of that.
On this particular day, the 126 firefighters (sans Judd and Owen) are over again. They're in the midst of a brutal game of Splendor.
Its neck and neck with TK falling closely behind Carlos and Marjan barely behind TK. Carlos believes he has it, though. He's planning his next move and is about to grab the card when he sees his boyfriend take the very same card. Carlos is confused. He calculated this perfectly and knows TK's coins wouldn't buy him the card. But oh, the dumb rule that none of them ever use. A player can take a card and reserve it either for them to buy later or stop another player from buying it. TK had him.
"Dammit," Carlos playfully exclaims as the rest laugh. "I was going to buy that card."
"I know," TK grins, sticking his tongue out.
"Hate you," Carlos chuckles.
"Yeah, love you too," TK grins. He looks at the card he just stole from his boyfriend and waits.
Everyone is silent. TK looks up from his hand. "Wh...what?"
He looks to Marjan. She's hiding her mouth to stop from smiling. Paul and Mateo are wearing similar shocked faces. TK looks to Carlos, whose eyes are wide. He quickly looks away when TK looks at him.
"What?" TK asks again.
"You," Paul starts.
"You just said," Marjan continues more. "Wait, is that the first time?" She asks. She turns to Carlos, who is back to staring at TK.
Carlos manages to nod his head slightly.
"First time what?" TK asks innocently.
"Do you not realize?" Paul asks. "You just said 'I love you''.
"Yeah, dude." Mateo agrees.
"What?" TK scoffs. "No, I didn't"
"Yes," Marjan grins. "Yes, you did."
TK knows he did. He felt the words escape his mouth. He was just hoping no one else did. Especially not Carlos, if he doesn't feel the same way.
"And," TK looks down. He plays with the card he just 'stole' from Carlos. "What if I did," He looks up. He debated going for sheepish or confident. He goes with confidence. He tilts his head and smiles warmly, but deep down he's panicking a little bit. He's not sure what he'd do if he got rejected.
Carlos' shocked face drops into a warm smile. "Well...maybe I love you too."
TK's body relaxes. "Just 'maybe'?" He says playfully.
"Okay," Carlos grins as he moves his body closer to TK. "Maybe I really, really love you." Their knees are touching. Carlos rests his hand on TK's leg.
"Yeah?" TK asks. His eyes soften.
"Yeah," Carlos says. His other hand grabs the back of TK's head and pulls him in for a kiss.
The others giggle and "aww" at them, but they ignore them.
"Alright, alright," Paul exclaims, getting up from his seat.
"Yeah, guys. Get a room," Mateo says.
TK and Carlos laugh in their kiss as they pull apart.
"I think it's safe to say TK's won this round," Paul says as he cleans up the board.
"In more ways than one." Marjan comments. Paul high-fives her for that remark as she gets up from her seat. They all laugh.
"Come on, Mateo," Paul says. The game is packed. "Let's give the two love birds some alone time."
Carlos and TK attempt to protest, but it falls flat.
"Next time, I'm bringing a different game," Paul says as he heads to the door with Marjan and Mateo close behind.
"Oh yeah, what's that?" Marjan asks.
"This game called Catan. I think we'll all enjoy it."
Carlos and TK watch their friends disappear behind Carlos' front door. They turn back to each other once they hear the door click shut.
"Say it again?" TK asks.
"Hmm?"
TK smiles. It's genuine and full of love, but Carlos can also see TK metaphorically sitting on the edge as if Carlos would snatch the three-word phrase away.
"I love you, TK," Carlos says again as he raises his hand to TK's neck once more. He rubs comforting circles with this thumb on the spot behind TK's ear.
"I love you, Carlos," TK says, confidently this time.
They pull each other in for another kiss as Carlos guides TK down on the couch. They kiss for a bit more but end up lying down entangled in each other, both hearts full of love.

I don’t think we talk enough about how the head demons used to be Crowley’s friend group up in Heaven. I really desperately want to know more about “Lucifer and the guys.” I want to know about him piggybacking around with Furfur and how he and Beelzebub used to tell scary stories to cherubs.
I want to know what happened after The Fall. Did they drift apart slowly? Did it start before that? Did it happen all at once? Did he tell them he never wanted this? When did the people he once thought to be his friends start dragging him down to Hell for punishment? When did Lucifer begin to terrify him? When did Beelzebub? Were Hastur and Ligur a part of that group? When did they decide he wasn’t worth trusting? When did he start to dread the next time they would meet? Did the loneliness set in gradually or did he realize with a start that he was all alone?
The more I think about the differences between the Crowley that we know and the Angel we met in the season 2 opener, the more tragic it becomes. They used to be his friends.

Both the opening scene and “Every” share a small theme/musical melody that creates a deep emotion context to the pairs inner feelings.
Listen below to how the notes ascend and descend:
Pre-Fall Crowley’s still has an angelic choir, a holy radiance and innocence we haven’t heard associated with him before. The theme sweeps into a bright major as he laughs at the joy of his hard work and the birth of something bright and new.
However, Crowley making a nebula fills him with the same joy as a kiss with Aziraphale. The melody plays in dramatic strings that cry out with a smaller choir which slowly drags away. A melodic interpretation of the fallen angel. Yet, the music falls to minor after the initial hope of the kiss. Sadder. Slowly falling apart.
This isn’t a birth of something new like his joyful nebula, but potentially a loss.
In conclusion: Season 2 is actively slowly killing me. David Arnold went insane this season.
More GO Analyses:
- The Metatron is a Parallel to Original Sin/the Serpent of Eden

Good Omens Fic Rec: on purpose, on purpose (i am going to care about you)
“Hold on. Hold on,” he hissed, going stiff under Aziraphale’s hands. “Are you— did you— what are you doing? Do you know what you’re doing?”
“I’m playing with your hair, dearie.”
“Yes, yes, I noticed,” croaked Crowley, and he slid right out of Aziraphale’s lap and into a shellshocked sprawl on the floor at his feet.

*Minor Spoilers* oh! oh! jail for this pre season 2 fic! jail for One Thousand Years!!!!! “There’s a thought,” he said, wonderingly. “It can just be… us. ” How dare you!!
For real though, this is a very tender and loving short story about Aziraphale slowly introducing touch. Casual intimacies without actually addressing their feelings until Crowley completely blue screens. It’s very sweet, you can’t help but fall in love with a story like this. If Neil Gaiman cares about me at all he’ll give us Aziraphale playing with Crowley’s hair in season 3. I really loved this one, and it will give you the warm fuzzies.

Seems that two days before the premiere there will be a 2 episode sneak peek in US cinemas available for Prime users. I still hold hope that they will do some in Europe because it's BBC+Amazon and not just Amazon...
Edit: Wa-fucking-hoo! :)

“Why are you whistling?” Eddie asks after he’s heard Steve do it for the fourth time.
“Huh?”
Eddie imitates him; it’s not like Steve is just casually following a tune in his head—it sounds deliberate. Encouraging whistles, one right after the other, in groups of three. Like a… like a call to something.
“Oh.” Steve chuckles slightly, gestures vaguely to the trees around them—to the evening fog that’s settling in, clinging to the branches. They’ll be nearing Lover’s Lake soon, surely. “Guess ‘cause of, uh… it’s just… a habit.” He smiles as if to himself. “In case of… dogs. So they come to me first.”
Eddie shakes his head. “Dogs. Right. Do I need a translator around you all?”
Steve’s smile grows. “Maybe. Not gonna spill all our secrets just like that, Munson. Gotta respect, um…” He clicks his fingers. “Narrative tension.”
Eddie snorts. “Fine. I’ll get the full story outta you yet, Harrington. Just you wait.”
“Mm-hmm. It’s a good one.”
“Why?”
Steve shrugs, but Eddie follows where his eyes linger: Lucas, Max. Dustin.
“Uh, I guess… it wasn’t really the beginning of… everything. But, um, it kinda was one. A beginning, I mean—for me, anyway.” He huffs, seems to hear himself. “Sorry. That was cryptic as hell and I wasn’t even… Hey, man, lemme know if you find a translator, think I need one for me, too.”
Eddie smiles. “Sure.”
But even as they’re walking towards uncertainty, even though Eddie knows there’s so many little stories he’s missing, all tangled up in the big one…
He finds that he can understand a lot about Steve without needing words.
There’s a tautness to his body as he walks, like even when seemingly relaxed, he’s always ready to run. Like there’s an unbreakable string pulling right from the centre of him, and Eddie already knows that it’ll lead straight to the kids.
Three whistles in the dark.
So they come to me first.
Eddie’s growing certain that this story in its entirety won’t exactly put his mind at ease. But for some reason, as they walk side-by-side, his heartbeat slows, like he’s finally calm enough to feel something other than fear.
Something close to fondness.
Maybe.
I don’t need a translator, Steve Harrington. Turns out I can read you pretty damn well.
