Writers Guild Presents: Write A Way, Chapters 12 & 13!

Art by @ines2925 💜

Two chapters this week! I hope you enjoy them both 🥰

CW/tags: self-doubt/esteem issues, past trauma due to being neurodivergent in a neurotypical world, light angst, smut, explicit sex (eventually), slow burn, human AU

Summary:

Azira Fell and AJ Crowley are both successful authors in their own right, invited to speak at the same national book festival. Despite a falling out a couple of years ago, they've never actually met in person - so this event is going to be excruciatingly awkward for both of them.

Right? 

As it happens, and unbeknownst to them, it seems they share a love of a certain TV show... and being very active parts of its fandom (yep, it's Fanfic Writer Crowley and Fanfic Reader Aziraphale time!)

Excerpt:

Crowley had now leapt off the park bench as a veritable council of waterfowl had surrounded him. He tried to stride off to lose them but the birds only waddled after, angrily continuing their complaints, much to the delight of the nearby Londontourists and Azira. Finally, rolling his eyes with a dramatic sigh, Crowley reached into his jacket pocket and reluctantly threw out some shelled sunflower seeds, which pleased his feathered gang no end.

Azira laughed, a deep, warming thing that wrapped itself around him like an embrace. His gaze drifted to the bench and he took a moment to examine the graffiti etched onto it, left by other fans of Accurate Prophecies: quotes from the show or book, small illustrations of the witch hunter and the seer. It was a monument to their love of AP - the fondness in those scrawls was evident, the desire to reach out and share that connection with others so strong it made Azira’s heart full. 

How lucky he was, he thought to himself, that he had eventually found his own Andrew.

do you have more adhd crowley headcanons bc you’re like the only mutual i have who’s talked about it and i want more

dajfcndjks okay, here you go. I shall feed you ADHD Crowley. For real though, I'm so confused on how there isn't more ADHD Crowley content (You get Crowley being a slut gif because I like you :D)

This demon cannot sit still, and if he does, it's because he's not sitting in the chair properly

The minute he's sitting properly he's moving nonstop

Leg is bouncing, hands are moving, head is swaying and shaking

The first time Aziraphale notices is the last time he ever allows Crowley to sit properly around him because he sees how much of a struggle it is

Crowley tries to read the things Azi likes but physically can't

He tries so hard to focus but the words just aren't processing, and he get s o booooored (he also has dyslexia. You can pry this hc from my cold, dead hands)

He feels bad that he can't share Aziraphale's interests, but Aziraphale understands

He turns into a snake to stim by slithering around

He also gets so much dopamine from just slithering around the shop and scaring customers

Jumping around in puddles also gives him dopamine, he just needs to make sure to avoid Aziraphale when he does it

A little bit of a weird headcanon, but the way he walks is a stim itself. I will not elaborate

He's a caffeine addict. Nothing to do with ADHD. Just a general headcanon

His ADHD gets so much worse when he's drunk

He goes on so many more rants and rambles than normal (dolphins)

That's all I have because I put most of my bigger headcanons on the first post lol. Sorry this took so long to answer. Got wrapped up with some shit and then took a while to think these up

[feralbutfluffy]

Anthony Crowley is surely the patron demon of ADHD.

[name-s-are-not-important]

Headcanon - Autistic Halt & ADHD Crowley & Gilan

Because they are so close and feel more comfortable with each other than with anyone else, Cralt sometimes repeat stims after each other. It all started with Crowley, who, wanting to reassure Halt that he didn't need to hide stimming in front of him, started to show it more himself. In time they both became comfortable enough with it to have some stims in common.

The first person besides them to realise this was Gilan, who at the beginning of his training still hadn't dealt with the trauma of the first war with Morgarath, and as a result had a few tics. This happened to set off the dominoes of reaction a couple of times, as Crowley picked it up from him, especially the vocal tics, and Halt, mimicking Crowley's stimming, joined in too. Gilan got better with time, but sometimes still triggered the 'stimming break' when he sat alone with them. It amused him a little to see Halt looking at him menacingly, but he still visibly relaxed, repeating snippets of a song under his breath that now refused to leave Crowley's head, or tapping his fingers in the same way as they did.

Crowley doesn't mind at all, especially since he has realised that his example emboldens others too, and sometimes all it takes at a Gathering or some Rangers' meeting is for them to see that he is stimming for others to join in too.

Halt insists that he hates the way Gilan 'gives the stimming order', but he has honestly never felt more comfortable and ordinary with stimming than at times like this.

we don't appreciate this exact clip enough for really giving us a look at how Crowley walks

[gryfflepuffinthetardis]

Gryfflepuff in the Tardis' Masterlist

All my Works, characters are colored by which Hogwarts House I think they're in. I am a Primary Hufflepuff, Secondary Gryffindor and I genuinely think Hufflepuff is the best and most underrated house. (Since Tumble removed the yellow color, Orange will represent Hufflepuff, except in the condition of Good Omens' Crowley who I am stuck between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. If you disagree, please give me your best argument and I'll offer my insight of David Tennant's Crowley... Since I have nothing written for Crowley and I'm still conflicted about the news on the new "season" (THERE SHOULD BE SIX EPISODES, NOT ONE!) I've added him and other characters I haven't written for YET to my "Who I'm Willing to Write For" post.

I don't do reblogs, just because I feel that when you're searching through the posts, the reblogs clutter up the blog and get mixed with original posts but I am willing to do fan fic recommendations if requested.

You can call me either Gryfflepuff or the Eccedentiast (Not to sound by Lemony Snicket but "a word that means 'someone who hides their pain and tears and sadness behind a smile'.").

--------------------

I have created an OC to be the Henderson!OC and Dustin's father and I always choose David Tennant, he just really gives off protective I-will-kill-anyone-who-hurts-you dad vibe and I have a soft spot for an overprotective dad for his daughter (I never had that. My dad wanted a boy--granted the disapproval that's implied is possibly because my mom told me this--and he is ADHD and was always sleeping and then he moved two towns over which was an hour's drive but seemed longer in my ADHD mind but so he could sleep and I could play video games on the Xbox that's memory wouldn't save the game so I continuously had to start over. Oh, and also, there's the fact that a TV fell on me when I was five/six because I didn't understand gravity and I locked myself in the dryer when I was seven/eight. What, is that not normal? 🙄) I'm not a big crier but a father that's willing to do anything for his daughter is your best bet. Sorry for this rant.

[chaoticvintagelesbian]

Crowley is adhd, and aziraphale is autism. Neurospicy, queer angels.

[sporadicwerewolfwonderland]

Good omens but make it pride and prejudice

Love them (not Neil Gaiman though)

[hopefulgardenshark]

Neurodiversity is a reality of my life, my family. This is why I love Good Omens. I see myself in it, this vibe is more important to me than the queer vibe. And then I go reading fic on A03, Good Omens fic. Sometimes both characters are portrayed as extremely neurodivergent. The tags that go along are in the line of "Crowley is a mess", "They are idiots"... and it is supposed to be funny while both are portrayed struggling against the world full of blatant discrimination. The comments under these ficts are the worst: "Poor Crowley", "Poor Aziraphale".... So patronising. Reading this hurts. And there are no warnings about the content. No equivalent to "period typical homophobia" kind of thing. This fandom is so great about calling out different forms of discrimination, but somehow it treats neurodiversity as a non-issue. But it is not! People irl suffer - and the longer you live, the more complicated it gets, bc as I tell my students yeah accommodations end at the college doors on your way out. I wish we could create these safe spaces for everyone. I wrote this bc I just joined the "safe blog for autism" on tumblr and I realised that the subjects GO talks about and their form are not always safe.

Crowley's head canons, part 2！

Here's part 1

Again big thanks for （@bright-omens ） who sparked the idea of nurodiversed Crowley.  When I wrote this, I looked around and my room was pitch black because it was night time already. Ahh shi―

Well this will be way more head canon stuff then part 1 but still loosely based on it. enjoy！

1）you know how he cant tell when to say thank you. It's like Gabriel no one really says it to him so he's like, “right... humans say it now... right?”

2）dosant mask.  Drink it in. Yep.

3）suppresis swearing arouned Aziraphel because Aziraphel dosant like it.

4）when ecited starts stuttering, docent really tries to stop it if it's not an emergency because he doesn't care what others think.

5）vocalises thoughs because he can think better when hes alone.（when hes alone in the aprtment, when hes in the bar after azis book shop burns down）

6）This demon gota have a big book of ducks next to the space.

7）Literally can't stand silense and keeps on talking when ever one else is silent.

8）likes enphsizing words because its FUN.（loud voice, rhytorical question stuff）

9）strugles with stuttering more when hes suppresised tired exited or nervous

10）Probably the type of person that jumps up and down before starts running

11）thinks if he uses a big voice people wold be scared of him haha god thanks for the trauma

12）likes doing call back to what others say（could be because its a cool thing for a tv show to do i like the idea that he likes going arouned qoting stuff）

13）When he's tired he will muddle up words more and won't correct himself. Because who cares.

14）if he dosant know how to say stuff with words, Literary will go full in body language（Ex： the nose sniffling thing when changing or moving a conversion forward, the KISS that makes me cry when i think about more then ten seconds）

15）when trying to remember something clicks his fingers

16）when upset or under presher words dont flow well.（Ex：“I, won't, even, think, about, you！”）

17）i noticeed this but dont know what it means. Like Crowley will say something and then smile at the end of it. Like why not smile and say it. He would have to have a straight face and say stuff and then give a big smile. It's cute.

18）bad at phone calls.（dosant pick up azis phone call antill half way though and nealy keeps it on voice message, dosant know when to talk, talking to azi“its me” no dear say your name. ）

（The way he looks unconfidun af when he's in the book shop answering the phone for azi makes me cry the way he says everything before the other can speake.. i sobed）

19）and missed social ques sometimes（not raising hand for the magic trick, the exact thing with azi. Again.

20）gets adrenaline from driveing his car super fast.

21）struggle making eye contact when talking about intimate topics（lookin at everwere but azi, sunglases）（it so sweet how he tryed to talk to him with out the sunglases the hell hit)

22）would rather moov stuff with his legs but azi looks at him with"the loon"（like opening doors he would kick evet door open if he got his way）

23）can't control the volume of their voice when I'm excited. （When he points at the book when azi asks about it and him pulling it out and shouting）

24）he's not good at spacialaly awer and the sunglases make it super difficult to walk. （Literary walks in to every thing）

25）His hypich voice that he uses to play arouned is a stim.（“HELLO”, “Celestial Harmony”, “EtirNity！

26）when nervous hands shiver so badly and drop stuff by mistake. Drops cups and shit. He normally fixes it with his miracles but it's still pretty annoying.

”I love Crowley so much. I won't talk about him every day from now on. Please someone let's talk about good omens for an unhealthy amount of time...

Writers Guild Presents: Letting Go - a Write A Way one-shot!

Art by @ines2925 💜

The boys are back 😎 I'd been thinking of doing something with these two disasters again and then I got the Dom/Sub prompt for the @goodomensafterdark Fall Ball Kink Thrall event.

CW/tags: Dom/sub, Soft Dom/Top Crowley, Sub/Bottom Aziraphale, explicit sex, past trauma due to being neurodivergent in a neurotypical world, smut, human AU, ADHD Crowley and Autistic Aziraphale, dirty talk, blow jobs

Summary:

Azira and Crowley have been together for a few months and things are going great. However, when Azira catches sight of a particularly smutty piece of Accurate Prophecies fanart, it leads to him realising there's something he'd quite like to explore with Crowley, especially as it might alleviate some workplace stress...

Or: Crowley engages in some soft dom roleplay so he can give his angel exactly what he needs to stop thinking.

Excerpt:

While Crowley certainly found the illustration compelling, the effect it had upon Azira was far more interesting. His pupils were blown wide in arousal, barrel chest rising in stuttering breaths, lips hanging open as his tongue edged out to wet them. A flush began to grow across his cheeks, creeping slowly down that beautiful throat until it disappeared beneath a buttoned up shirt and bow tie.

The reaction was fascinating and Crowley took a moment to appreciate the sight of Azira Fell blue-screening. He and Crowley had been physically intimate for a while now and, while they’d both enjoyed being top and bottom at various points, they’d not discussed anything around submission and domination. The two things didn’t automatically go hand in hand, after all. Azira hadn’t mentioned being interested in such things, let alone a preference, but Crowley was starting to suspect his angel might have one.

“Alright there?” he asked, and watched as Azira slowly came back to himself, blinking rapidly and clearing his throat as he did.

“Oh yes,” he squeaked unconvincingly, “ah, tickety-boo! I hope it’s, well, given you some fodder for your next chapter!”

Eyebrows raised, Crowley let that exclamation pass (“tickety-boo”? Fuck, he really did love him) and covered his disbelief with a long sip of coffee. As Azira fussed with some imaginary fluff on his trouser leg, Crowley decided to wait and see. They hadn’t been together long, but one thing Crowley understood was that Azira took maybe a little more time to process how he felt about things.

Placing his phone on the table, he wrapped an arm around Azira and cuddled up against him, drawing a pleased hum from the adorable man. No, Crowley thought, better he worked things through. He’d talk to Crowley when he was good and ready.

It turned out “good and ready” only took a day.

ADHD Crowley Headcanons because I love them very much

ADHD Crowley lives rent-free in my heart. Also, I will be switching pronouns for him throughout this because genderfluid Crowley

He stims by moving his head from side to side (like a snake)

They vocal stim by doing a Scottish accent randomly

They'll just be chilling with Aziraphale in the bookshop and they'll both be silently doing their own thing

And then out of nowhere...

He'll just start saying random things in a Scottish accent, and he'll stay like that for hours until he gets a good amount of dopamine from it

His hyperfixation is stars and space, obviously

He sticks his tongue out as he does important things so he can focus more

She loves sorting things. If she ever needs dopamine or if she's just bored, Aziraphale has a bunch of boxes of little trinkets and things for her to sort and fidget with

Speaking of fidgeting, Crowley hoards fidget toys like there's no tomorrow

She just pulls them out of nowhere

She's in a meeting with Hell and getting bored?

*Fidget toy has been summoned*

All the demons in Hell find it so annoying because they'll take them away

Only for her to have even more than before

They've given up on confiscating his fidget toys

Listening to songs on repeat is a form of stimming, so I feel like they'd hear a specific Queen song and they're like "Oh, here's the song that I'm focusing all my energy on for either a week or the next 5 years"

They hoard blankets

If they get too stressed out they turn into a snake and slither around the bookshop

They will make random little noises in the silence, just to fill it

"Blop. Blop. Blop. Beep. Beeeeep. Beeeeeeeee-"

"Crowley, dear, will you stop beeping?"

Aziraphale doesn't care what sound she makes, as long as it isn't beeping

When Crowley is low on dopamine, she gets so incredibly depressed

She just sits and does nothing for weeks

Aziraphale usually tries to bring her out of it by taking her to space museums or giving her space books to read

It doesn't always work, but Crowley appreciates the effort

When he's on about a hyperfixation though...

Let's just say that he puts the "hyper" in hyperfixation

Aziraphale loves seeing him like that

All smiley and happy and bouncing around

Crowley could go on for hours about any little topic that interests him when he gets like that

[hoarder-of-dragons]

[Season 2 summed up]

Aziraphale's thoughts: Oh I shall team up with Crowley and make Nina and Maggie fall in love and make them confess. Oh what if I also confess then. I need to prepare everything to set the scene.

Still Aziraphale's thoughts: Ooohh a ball with dancing and tiny snacks to make it fancy and it will be like a Jane Austen novel coming to life and then I will ask Crowley to dance and all our problems will go away as I stare into his eyes....

Crowley's thoughts: Keep Aziraphale safe Keep Aziraphale safe Keep Aziraphale safe Keep Aziraphale safe FUCK YOU GABRIEL Keep Aziraphale safe Keep Aziraphale safe Keep Aziraphale safe PLEASE HOLD MY HAND AZIRAPHALE Keep Aziraphale safe JANE AUSTEN WAS AN AUTHOUR?!?! Keep Aziraphale safe-

[somanystars]

crowley's brain: ANGEL there are DEMONS EVERYWHERE OUTSIDE it is an EMERGENCY

crowley: oooh angel has pretty eyes and is enjoying his dance :)

crowley: WAIT NO THE DEMONS FUCKJDCASKJIFJ

I feel like nobody talks about this. Crowley pauses before he speaks and they just kind of look at each other for a few seconds. I thought it was really cute.

[gryfflepuffinthetardis]

Who I'm Willing To Write For

I don't know if I'm being paranoid but people seem to be not liking my posts as they usually do. So I'm going to simplify my Masterlist because I haven't written for most of these.

So I'm going to add these here. Remember the characters are color-coded by what Hogwarts house I think they're in and since Tumblr removed the yellow color, Orange will represent Hufflepuff except in the condition of Good Omens' Crowley who I am stuck between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. If you disagree, please give me your best argument and I'll offer my insight of David Tennant's Crowley.

Ninth Doctor - Brooding Time Lord Who Tries To Hide His Light with Darkness

Tenth Doctor - Hyperactive Time Lord Who Is Always Being Slapped Born From His Love For a Human Who Tries To Hide His Darkness and Trauma With Light

Metacrisis Doctor/TenToo (My Headcanon is that he chose the surname "Noble")

Fourteenth Doctor - The Face That Returned, now arguably more Hyperactive and Traumatized

Campbell Bain - Bipolar Nineteen-Year-Old Walking Ray of Sunshine That Somehow Doesn't Do Well With Girls

Alec Hardy (Broadchurch) - Grumpy and Broody Scottish Detective With a Heart Condition yet a Heart of Gold (Doesn't Know He's a DILF)

Emmet Carver (Gracepoint) - The American Version of Alec

Crowley (Good Omens) - A Hyperactive Drama Queen "Vaguely Sauntered Downward" Angel Turned Only Demon with an Imagination

Barty Crouch Junior - The (Possibly Bipolar) Misunderstood Boy Who Never Got His Father's Love and Was Manipulated By Voldemort (I think I read that he was actually a Ravenclaw but I do see a lot of Hufflepuff in him, his insistence of a fair fight and honesty and loyalty)

Peter Vincent (Fright Night) - Hyperactive Alcoholic Magician/Vampire Hunter with a Heart of Gold

Dave Tiler (Single Dad) — The sweetheart dad with too many children with so much love in his heart who fate was so cruel to.

Kilgrave (I've never seen Jessica Jones, I just feel like with him having the same accent and looks the same, it might ruin David Tennant's Doctor for me, and I love David Tennant as the Doctor.)

Cale Erendreich (Bad Samarian; Haven't Seen This Either)

Steve Harrington (Stranger Things) - The Hair; Nomenee for Mother of the Year

Isaac Lahey (Teen Wolf) - The Abused Puppy With a Heart of Gold Who Only Wanted the Power to Defend Himself and To Not Be Scared

Spencer Reid (Criminal Minds) - The Genius Pretty Boy

Raymond Wadsworth

Chip Taylor (68 Kill)

Kyle Orfman

Lesley Juniment-Smith

Thornton "Thorn" Adams (King Knight)

Joe Harper (The Band of Robbers)

Fred Weasley

Yes, there are a lot of David Tennant characters. I don't want to write for the actor himself, I just feel a little creepy doing that. In my numerous Steve Harrington fics, the more recent ones (The OC is always Dustin's older sister, except in one) I think he is the best Doctor and I think he should officially be titled as the biggest Doctor Who Fan ever. (He became an actor because of Doctor Who, he says he thinks he underplays how much he loved Doctor Who, he became the first regenerated Doctor and the first one to last more than one season on the revived Doctor Who, he met his future father-in-law, like a year before he met his wife, Ty Tennant, Georgia's oldest son and David's now adopted son, in 2008, considered the Tenth to be his favorite, and hilariously, his grandfather was nowhere on the five-year-old's list--then David Tennant met Georgia (at the time) Moffat on the set of Doctor Who as she, the daughter of the Fifth Doctor, played the daughter of the Tenth Doctor, I heard that David Tennant met Ty on the set, and according the Peter Davidson, Georgia didn't even realize that he liked her when they started going out (apparently he was offended when she said she hadn't seen any Shakespeare), then David Tennant counts as the unofficial twelfth regeneration (there was the War Doctor who the Doctors deem as not worthy of having the name of the Doctor), then he adopted Ty Tennant and married Georgia; he returned for the 50th and 60th anniversary (and I hope he never stops returning), now is the Fourteenth Doctor, that's three official regenerations, and Good Omens is full of Doctor Who references. I don't think anyone can beat him for the biggest Doctor Who fan. His life like revolves around Doctor Who in a way that every fanboy/fangirl dreams of. *(Can't pinpoint what house Alec Hardy and therefore Emmet Carver would be in, the only blog I've found on it, discussed how he may be a burnt Hufflepuff (just google it, it'll send you to the tumble immediately) but discusses his desperation in season two suggests Gryffindor, also implying his ignoring of his heart condition but he's aware that he has it, so he's gone to the hospital and he takes pills, he's just aware that the doctors told him that he may not survive his surgery to have the pacemaker put in and he feels like he owes it to the families to get the closure they deserve, so it doesn't strike me as impulsive but more dedicated, determined, and "unafraid of toil". Then the blog argues that his need to protect people he views as in his care and how he related to the Sandbrooke case as Slytherin but I don't see that. I think perhaps a "Burned Hufflepuff" is accurate.*
