Love, and Other Ineffable Things by IneffablePenguin
Fandom Good Omens (TV), Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
24 Dec 2020
Summary
6,000 years of slow burn has to catch fire eventually.
This story picks up immediately upon conclusion of the Good Omens show, Season One. It chronicles the (at long, long last) romantic aftermath of Not-Armageddon in the first main installment, “Ineffably Inevitable,” then continues chronologically in little individually-posted vignettes/chapters/segments to create one larger story. Some are short and sweet, some are longer; from random drunken episodes to marriage proposal to major life changes to more nsfw activity (not in that order).
It’s about accepting yourself, and growing, and finding your courage, and light overcoming darkness. But most of all it’s about love.
[There is also a PWP (smut) companion account to this series- all part of the same story, just set apart to avoid overload. If interested the account is here: firenzia]

Summary
1941 is the London Blitz and the year that MI5 really comes into its own with the now infamous ‘double cross’ system. The service keep tabs on suspects, root out enemy agents and try to turn them into doubles.
Anthony J Crowley is fucking great at this job. He can be sneaky, underhanded and damn ruthless but also charming and kind. It’s what makes him good at turning.
Aziraphale is just a regular Soho bookseller who loves his shop and books and good food and wine when he’s approached by a woman claiming to be MI5, wanting to recruit him for espionage. The poor man is too trusting and gets the shock of his life when he’s approached by a charming but dangerous-looking man also claiming to be MI5.
Crowley recruits Aziraphale to double cross a double crosser and Aziraphale takes to espionage like a duck to water.
Danger, hijinks, and sex ensue.

Summary
Because sometimes love IS a victory march, rather than a "cold and broken Hallelujah." Not always. But sometimes.
So. Hosanna to God in the highest. And here on Earth? Love.
No. It's not another Sussex Downs. It's another free standing. The goal, as it so often is, was to find routes into sex and physical love that are sober more than purely fluffy. Not to say that I don't like me some fluff: but I also love imagining characters who are mature, deciding things with open eyes, brave enough to find their way to happy outcomes without adding TOO much comic relief. Not "no comic relief." But without being laughed at, rather than gently laughed with. So--hot and sexy and plausible and successful for all concerned.

Summary
“They think I’m immune to demon fire, see,” Aziraphale said, in a slightly airy voice. “So they had to… get creative.”
“Aziraphale, what. Did. They. Do?”
“Can’t you tell?” Aziraphale gave a little laugh. This must be what shock felt like. “Can’t you sense it?” He grabbed Crowley’s hand and pressed it to his chest, so the demon could feel his rapidly beating, very human heart. “I’m a human now, my dear. Very, very mortal.”
Aziraphale is punished. Crowley refuses to accept it. Shenanigans, feelings, and plots ensue.

Summary
After everything, Aziraphale and Crowley, by unspoken agreement, begin sharing their lives.
---
Why? Aziraphale wanted to ask him, why millennia of the way things were, and now this?But while Crowley seemed to have little issue upending every unspoken rule they’d ever written for themselves, Aziraphale was not so flexible, and they had spent thousands of years never quite addressing whatever it was this had stemmed from. Words, Aziraphale had always felt, were for bickering about where to eat for lunch, or hashing out ontological debates, or other trivial nonsense; there was no need to trifle with the imprecision of language, with phrasing and the possibility of being misconstrued, when it came to important matters if the other person simply understood, without needing it said. Six thousand years ago, when Aziraphale had met Crowley on the wall of Eden, watching the first two humans set out to begin the rest of history, something deep within him, more central even than his Grace, had thought, oh, it’s you, and that had been enough for him--for both of them, he assumed--for three millennia.
However much he wanted to ask, he didn’t know how. The words simply weren’t there.

Don't give up on your faith. Love comes to those who believe.
(Aziraphale wants love. But how to balance that with his faith, when the two seem necessarily at odds?)

Summary
It was strange, Aziraphale’s bookshop had not burned down - though that was not what was strange, given all that had happened in the past week his bookshop miraculously un-incinerating itself barely even registered. No, what was strange, was that Aziraphale’s bookshop was still standing and yet somehow he found himself staying at Crowley’s place anyway.
