Summary
EDIT: this fic is currently being rewritten, check out the series for full details :)
-
Eleven years ago, the Antichrist was born, set to bring upon the end of the world in due time. He was suppose to be delivered to the Order of the Chattering Nuns the night of his birth by the demon Crowley.
And that’s what happened. Well, what everyone thinks happened.
In reality, Crowley snuck the baby home to a lovely little bookshop in Soho, where him and an angel by the name of Aziraphale lived. The couple decided that instead of letting the boy be raised by humans who didn’t understand his destiny, they would take over custody of him themselves.
That was eleven years ago. Now, the day of Adam C. Fells eleventh birthday is coming to, and with his parents and friends by his side, Adam hoped he could face his destiny and not let the world die, since he quite likes the Earth and doesn’t want it to end.
Well, except for the fact there’s a lot of other players in this game running about, and thing don’t go exactly as planned. That’s alright, I guess. You’ve got to work with what you got.
(aka, another Aziraphale and Crowley raise Adam AU)

Summary
Eleven years ago, the Antichrist was born. Set to bring upon the end of the world, the baby was to be delivered to an order of satanic nuns by the demon Crowley. The baby would then be raised by a human family, come into his powers upon his eleventh birthday, and the Earth would end in fire and brimstone.
And that is what happened.
Or, what everyone believed had happened.
In reality, Crowley was a little sick of things ending in fire and brimstone, and thought the idea of the Earth going down like a lead balloon to be a bad one indeed. His partner, the angel Aziraphale, also agreed. Now eleven years since, Adam C. Fell is just about to celebrate his birthday, and he doesn’t really want Armageddon to happen. It would be a shame if the world ended, and if he is the one who has to stop himself from doing so, then so be it.
But these types of things are never quite that simple, and with so many other players in this ineffable game running about, things won’t go exactly as planned. That’s alright, I suppose. You have to work with what you got.
