This is it folks, this is My Favorite Gif of Good Omens.
Tumblr media
I love the joy of this scene. It’s one of the rare times where Crowley seems childlike after the fall.
Bonus: Aziraphale’s reaction 😂

I have something that has been banging around in my head related to Crowley’s apparent loss of memory. This is probably not original but I haven’t seen it articulated quite this way so I’m just going to write it out. Crowley has a few interactions with Gabriel where he is trying to remember things that Heaven “erased”. On one occasion Gabriel says - “I can’t” and Crowley says “Yes you can” with certainty. Another time, Gabriel says “It hurts” and Crowley says, “I know, do it anyway.” I have THINGS TO SAY about this below the cut.
I think we can take it as given that Crowley has had his memory erased by Heaven, as evidenced by him not remembering Furfur or Saraqael or why they decided to have gravity. If it was one thing, I would buy it as a throwaway but the lack of memory is so specifically and repeatedly called out that I don’t think we can take it as a coincidence.
It’s equally clear to me that he hasn’t forgotten EVERYTHING about his time as an angel. He remembers that he worked on a specific nebula in S1, he remembers going into battle, he knows that if he gets into Heaven he’ll be able to access top secret files. And you cannot convince me that he doesn’t remember Aziraphale in Eden. Aziraphale doesn’t know his *demon* name, so Crowley introduces himself, but Aziraphale never does the same because Crowley already knows who he is.
SO I have made the mental leap to conclude the following - Crowley had his memory wiped by Heaven when he fell, he remembered nothing just like Gabriel, and he FORCED himself to remember some parts of his time in Heaven. Meaning, he tried hard to remember, it *hurt* and he *did it anyway*. I like to imagine that he did so because he wanted to know who he was (which of course is reason enough) but also because he wanted very much to remember a friendship with a certain Principality.
When Gabriel had his memory wiped, he still knew he needed to get to Beelzebub. I believe that when Crowley had his memory wiped, he still knew he needed to get to Aziraphale. So he went through a lot of pain to claw back some of his memory. He didn’t get everything back, but he got something. We know Heaven didn’t wipe the memories of all the Fallen, so Crowley’s memory was probably erased (or I would argue ‘suppressed’ is more accurate because the memory is still there, he just can’t access it readily) because he was high ranking, but also because he *knew or saw something specific and significant*.
Upshot is, I now desperately need a fic that features Crowley fighting to remember himself. Does this exist?? Do I need to write it?? Anybody else have this train of thought?

Hi!
I'm so happy you are getting into the Good Omens fandom! I've been brain rotting about it since October and I love being part of the space! Just an ettiquette thing to note tho, as it seems that you are new to fandom space, is that AO3 is not the place to be posting Fic Requests. As per the Archive's Terms of Service, the site is only for "Transformative Works" which means either completed fics or metas. https://archiveofourown.org/tos_faq#fannish_nonfiction
Here's a section of the Terms of Service FAQs that helps explain the purpose of the Archive more! Most folks are on the Archive just to read works, not request new ones be written. The best thing for you to do to get fic requests is to make another Tumblr post for it and tag your friends. Or, you can also go looking through the tags for the Good Omens fandom some more! I know I and a lot of other fic writers have found a lot of inspiration from seeing people's fanart of the show!
And last but not least, if you are up to writing something a bit more than a one shot, there are events called Bangs. They are about making fanfic/fanworks centered around a specific theme :). The ones I think that have open signups right now are the Silver Screen Bang, the Spooky Bang, and the Good Omens Big Bang. You can find out more about such events on the Good Omens Calendar!!
i’m currently looking to start making oneshots for good omens on my ao3 account!
just looking for any kind of requests! can be fluff/smut/anything really unless it’s extremely problematic. any gender/sexual identity is allowed for characterization. focused on aziraphale and crowley.
this is the link to my oneshots fanfiction page:

Hi hi hi thank you so much for posting this!! It made me brave enough to publish this fic that I wrote The Day you posted that drawing of Crowley with the cigarette from 1941. I had been too nervous to ask you permission to link your art. 😅
I get asked a lot if people can use or link my art in their fanfic. And the answer is always yes.
I love and support the writers in our community.
I don't mind if it is teen or explicit. If you want to send me the link or tell me about it, lovely, I love checking out new stories, but you don't have to.
Just tag me appropriately and have the common sense to not use it anywhere I might get upset people coming for me.

Is This Desire?
a Good Omens fic by @adverbian with art by @ineffableigh
created for the High Pollen Count 2024 Good Omens Sex Pollen Event!
(Note: Uncropped version of art by @ineffableigh embedded about halfway through Chapter 1 — scroll with caution!)
Explicit; 15.5k words; 2/2 chapters
Mind the tags: Dubious Consent, Sex Pollen, Fuck or Die (more tags on AO3)
Excerpt:
Aziraphale arranged himself against the black silk pillows, all pink and cream and pale gold, spreading himself out like the kind of erotic photograph that Crowley hadn't seen since the reign of Queen Victoria. There was a lush Dieffenbachia seguine beside the bed, its supple green leaves broad enough to wrap around one of Aziraphale's luscious thighs. A Tradescantia pallida trailed overhead, all imperial purple, rich as the wine they'd drunk in Rome. Aziraphale looked like a fantasy draped in a tropical paradise. Crowley wanted to taste every inch of him, slowly.
I won't lay a finger on you, angel. Not like this.
Read and see more on AO3!
(Tagging my wonderful co-mods @malachitegrey and @voluptatiscausa !)

Our CHitters had to write a fic or create a piece of art that was inspired by or included a game show, and there was a bonus for pulling a Monty or mentioning Monty Python.
TreeFrogie84 wrote a Leverage genfic that has a great line regarding accidentally killing Captain Kirk/Shatner in the process of just breaking his leg: "She wouldn't be killing him. Eliot would." 😂
Maya also learned a new phrase thanks to TreeFrogie84 this month. A phrase he had to look up on Urban Dictionary. Congrats on that one, TreeFrogie84!
March 2024 Fic Link: The Millionaire Job
If you haven't done so already, please check out TreeFrogie84's fic and let them know how much you enjoyed it!

OOOHh yes the Zorn palette mentioned!! Specifically made for oil painters to have lucious and vibrant skin tones for portraits and such!!
I love what you've done with it and Crowley!! I hope you have fallen in love with Yellow Ochre as much as I have :) :)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I have heard about the Zorn palette for a while now but I have only tried it on digital today. I'm completely in love....This is a new series of sketches but it's fem!Crowley this time.

I think one of the most telling hints that Muriel is actually quite bright, despite how everyone treats them, is when they not only immediately get what Crowley is saying about bees, they extend the metaphor by arguing, "But you don't look like a bee, you look like a murder hornet!"
Like. That's actually some pretty sophisticated comprehension and communication from an angel who's been kept isolated in an office in Heaven for so long they don't know how long humans live or the name of any "human settlement" other than London or what a cup of tea is.

Who answered Aziraphale's "Hello? Is there anybody there?" and opened the circle gate?
Do we have theories on this? Has Neil ever said? It only just occurred to me to wonder about this.

I bought Aziraphale's Bible so you don't have to.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Am I insane? Yes. Was it worth it? Maybe. In most* of both season 1 and season 2 of GO, there's a very specific Bible on a bookstand next to Aziraphale's desk. It's a vintage illustrated plate book by Harold Copping, known as the Harold Copping Bible, published by the religious tract society in London in 1910. It features some of the most well known Old Testament stories, summarized and annotated by the Bishop of Durham at the time, and illustrated by Copping, who was freshly returned from a sojourn in the middle east. Ironically, It was meant as a lay-person's version of a comic book, short, exciting by use of exotic illustrations, and easy to read.
But my (expensive) gain is now your gain! As I've collected here every visible page in both seasons for your reading and viewing pleasure.

Season 2: Episode 2 Imaginary page from HCB, Job KJV Job (18:1) / HCB N/A
Tumblr media Tumblr media
S2E2 22:29, S2E2 40:05 Obviously, the plate illustrations and text look different here than in the real bible, because they were created for the show. But there are a few more particularities here. For one, this layout with the thin grid around the text, as well as the paragraph symbol next to the first title, indicate that this would have been a printer's proof copy, not a finished book. It shows you the layout grid and can be annotated for changes. Second, there seems to be a war going on between fonts. Where the "chapter" of Job begins, we get a font and a style similar to the original bible, which gets rudely interrupted by a dropped capital (from the real book) and a Gothic-style font/verse numbers like in the original King James version of the printed Bible.
