Help fam, please! I have a spreadsheet of Good Omens AO3 fics I’ve read and downloaded listed by title and a short summary. Somehow a chunk of about 50 Post S2 titles got deleted but luckily they were in alphabetical order and the summaries remained.

After an extensive email and files search, I’ve found all but 3. Any help identifying them would be appreciated. Thanks!

1. Crowley is inspired to run after Aziraphale by a rom com. (Starts with “The” and 2nd word is alphabetically between Nightingale and Resurrectionists.)

2. Aziraphale comes back after 3 years and woos Crowley with a gift each day. (Starts with “The” and 2nd word is alphabetically between “Second” and “Stars”.)

EDIT: The Sound of Stars

3. Set over time post S2. Crowley uses a scroll to summon Aziraphale. Jesus in in Tibet. God is trapped in human form. God lets Azi think Crowley is dead for months before bringing him back. They end up together in their cottage. (Alphabetically between “Threshold” and “Time.”)

EDIT: Through the Ages series

Thanks to those who solved 2 and 3!

It’s Good Omens professors AU! Obviously Crowley is Professor Brick Wall and Aziraphale is Professor Overshare.

Valentine’s themed sequel to @sunrisesinthesuburbs’ Beautiful Things. Crowley (who got kicked out of his kitchen and now teaches cooking classes on social media) and Aziraphale (famous Shakespearean actor who lost his passion after an ill-advised American adaptation but regained it by supporting a young director) get a surprise from their dog Fluffy.

Two lovely fluffy stories here. #1 finds Aziraphale and Crowley figuring out their way over the hurdle of actually saying out loud how they feel (even though they both know because they felt it during the body swap). #2 is the sweet smutty aftermath of that confession.

[handyowlet]

Somebody write this with Aziraphale and Crowley, please!

Got to see MacBeth today with FunkyEarthChild/EyesonHisThighs today and took my @mayfairnursery ineffable babies along for the ride. Ran into @curiouspupsicle too! Had a lovely time 😀

[handyowlet]

And here’s a great ace fic to accompany it. Thanks @inherently-human

Crowley comes out to Aziraphale as asexual. Aziraphale reacts exactly how you think he will.

In celebration of Crowley with a vulva, Omegaverse, and mpreg (which are always welcome in this fandom). Thanks @cemeteryangel725!

Quick PSA, because there seems to be some severe lack of education regarding Asexuality among a certain bunch of opinionated people, who frankly have no place having such strong opinions about something they've demonstrated to be so ignorant about:

Asexuality =/= a lack of libido, sexual appetite, sexual drive, or sexual activity.

Asexuality does = no experience of sexual attraction.

There are many forms of attraction. For example, some of them may be: romantic attraction that you'd experience towards a romantic partner. Aesthetic attraction that you may experience when you see someone's fashion style or overall appearance. Platonic attraction that you may experience towards a close friend. Etc.

Asexuality IS a spectrum, we call it the Asexuality Umbrella; SOME people under the ace umbrella may experience no interest towards sex/intimacy whatsoever, some may experience disgust re anything sex/intimacy related, some may be indifferent or neutral about it, and some are positive or even enthusiastic about it. These things may include acts such as kissing and physical touch of the non sexual kind. ALL of these people are still asexual, and their sexual activity or lack thereof has nothing to do with it.

Asexual people may choose to engage or not in sexual activity, and the circumstances under which they choose to do so, and the reasons why, are very varied: physical pleasure, closeness to a partner, emotional connection, finding pleasure in pleasing a partner, etc, etc.

The ways in which an asexual person may choose to find their pleasure is also very varied. And yes, it may be through fiction, because it can be a safe way to do so without being expected to behave or perform in a certain way that may be uncomfortable for the individual. Nothing wrong with enjoying a good smutty book or fanfic, or comic. Harms no one involved. Enjoying this doesn't mean you're not asexual.

Asexuality does exist, and it's way more nuanced and varied than just equalling it to "not getting any."

Now read all that again, but switch Asexuality for Aromanticism. Also a spectrum, also varied, also incredibly nuanced.

So, yes. A fictional character CAN be asexual, AND also engage in sexy times with the chosen ship partner. A Queer Platonic Relationship is also a very valid option, because NEWSFLASH, sex is not the only valid bonding point of a relationship. It can be a strong, important one depending on each individual, but it's not the only way to connect with a partner.

And, NO. Asexual people are NOT "repressed." Asexual people do NOT need anyone to "change their minds". Asexuality is NOT a problem, a symptom, or a sign of trauma.

Some sources to know more about the topic:

AVEN - Asexuality Visibility and Education Network

The Invisible Orientation - by Julie Sondra Decker

The ABCs of LGBT - by Ash Hardell

ACE: What Asexuality reveals about Desire, Society, and the Meaning of Sex - by Angela Chen

There are many more sources out there, support groups and communities on social media that you can find mainly through AVEN, or with just a simple search about Asexuality on any search bar nowadays.

There's too much info about it now compared to some years ago to remain so ignorant about it.

Do. Better.

Is it just me, but the people who judge Aziraphale for leaving just don't get what was going on? He didn't get a choice, the choice was a lie. He knew that, he isn't stupid and he knows what Heaven is like

I was today years old when I realized R.P. Tyler from Good Omens narrated The Repair Shop!

Don’t forget- if you want to send a thank you to Colleen Doran for her work on the GoodOmens graphic novel, the deadline is tomorrow! My ineffable babies came in just in time to use in my message.

Typical bad family angst, a little pining, but lots of fluffity fluff. Highly recommend.

The hubby thinks I’ve lost it because I’ve been snickering and snorting up a storm reading this. All you need to know is Aziraphale & Crowley make a bet on who can last the longest being “human” and not using miracles, and being human also means dating. Read this! Thanks @the-rogue-bard
