Have you been waiting for more? With the chaos of season 2 our inspiration has been revitalized, and a full second epic of quips and capers are in the works for Jahaziel (our (newly) fallen angel Crowley) and Aziraphale (our tenured demon librarian slash demon-reforming reverend) - so in the meantime, please have a sweet and fluffy fic visiting our wonderful husbands on their first official wedding anniversary!
Please reblog and share with your friends - the other completed works in the Bittersweet Omens AU series are connected to this story as well, for your reading pleasure (or displeasure, there's a fair amount of angst there, too ;) )
Penned lovingly by @niceisa4letterword and @heavenslittlehellion!

You're in a pitch-dark room, sitting at what might be a poker table and the Dealer is smiling. There’s blank cards, infinite stakes and you've been considering giving up on asking about the rules of the game. A swipe of the hand for flourish as the cards are dealt, and Their sleeve catches on two of the cards, sending them tumbling into pitch-black darkness.  'Oops,' says the Dealer, still smiling, and leans down to pick up the cards. As They place them on the table again you can't help but notice that – from your point of view, at least – the two appear to have been swapped. Though you open your mouth to point out the mistake, on second thought the words die in your throat. You think it best to keep quiet, actually.
— First Temptations ⚜ A Good Omens swap AU
dramatis personae:
Rahaphiel (he/they, occasionally she/her) — Seraph appointed as Guardian of the Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden – a stressed-out florist with a shop on a corner of Whickber Street in Soho, modernly. Nowadays a lower-case 'a' archangel, as well. Mistakenly added to the heavenly Archangel triumvirate by overeager theologians who were quite bad at spelling.
Lilith (he/him) — Fallen Angel, considered to be the first temptress, though things between him and Adam never really went anywhere. The demon who suggested Eve should eat the Forbidden Fruit – the whole serpent bit was the result of a particularly long game of telephone. Moonlights as an owl. Owns a flat in Mayfair that could be mistaken for a library's backroom.
and, the Citroën: Lilith's 1980 Citroën 2CV "Charleston", with a habit of turning any album left in it for more than about a fortnight into a Best of Depeche Mode album

Sometimes I see Good Omens Roleswap AUs where Angel!Crowley is still wearing primarily black, and, like, I can’t pretend I don’t think that’s a little weird but also… I kinda love the Concept that not even Divinely-Mandated Dress Codes could ever truly override Crowley’s Aesthetic.

Some long-overdue fan art for @asleepyyy 's delicious Good Omens roleswap AU, Oopsie!Omens. They are cranking out comic pages like an absolute maniac right now, and I can't help but be in awe of both the commitment and the creativity.
Thoughts below:
Oopsie!Omens, for those who don't keep up with the comic, roughly follows the events of the Good Omens TV show, but with one significant change: Aziraphale deliberately takes the fall on the Starmaker's behalf back before the Beginning, so here, our ineffable duo are the demon Azazel and the Archangel Jophiel. So far, Jophiel hasn't learned what exactly transpired, but bless it if this odd little barn owl demon isn't both strangely familiar and inexplicably endearing...
This has been the first roleswap/reverse Omens AU that I have been able to get on board with, largely because our heavenly/hellish pair are recognizably them; Azazel is devout, meticulous, and willing to march into the unthinkable to defend what he loves, while Jophiel is clever, snarky, jaded, fiercely protective, and will let nothing stand in the way of finding the truth.
Besides the above, there are two things I really love about this comic: One is that the artist has taken considerable liberty with the ways that the two appear over time, through mannerisms and costume, and every form they take, whether it's a palette change or gender presentation, is a delight. The other is watching how the comic, from a technical and storytelling standpoint, keeps outdoing itself. The artist was always skilled, but it is sheer pleasure to see how much their work advances with each update.
Did I mention that the comic is also funny? It is FUNNY. Brace yourself for the occasional heart stab, though.
Azazel's hands burn when he attempts to pray to God. The thought of the smoke forming art nouveau-esque swirls was entirely too good to pass up.
The actual art (watercolor pencil, layered over with standard colored pencil) looks a bit more radiant in person. My camera was more interested in the pencil marks than the colors.
Asleepyy, if you're reading this, stay well, don't burn yourself out, and know we'll always understand if you need to take a break!

made this good omen roleswap au, it was fun c:
thoughts/notes under the cut -
okay so i'm not much of a writer - i'm not sure exactly how the story would be different? it would probably follow similar beats over time, just with a slight shift in the character dynamic (and obviously they're on the opposite sides)
i don't know why demon!az is rats, it just felt right to me. also i don't know what their names are - i don't know how demon names are chosen, and we were never told crowley's angel name (and also it wasn't lucifer)
after the fall, aziraphale becomes more reticent and withdrawn. he still retains his sense of nobility & wanting to do what's right, but it's buried under a mask of sorts - angel!crowley has to draw it out of him over time
crowley on the other hand is much more similar to how he was in the one scene we get of him as an angel. he's a little sillier, a little more whimsical, and smiles a lot more, but there's always that sense of walking on a tightrope around the other angels (especially gabriel)
i think angel!crowley would get to keep his creativity - i could imagine the bookshop being some kind of gallery/art studio in this au
i don't know what the rook in the corner is for - i just wanted to draw a rook, really

im obssessed with your roleswap good omens. ive been thinking about michael as crowley and david as aziraphale for ages now... the idea of a darker more violent crowley and the cheekiness of david's aziraphale... AHHH. you're captured it perfectly <333
Thank! I’d be terrified if Michael actually played a demon. He’d be too powerful, but David as a cheeky silly angel would be so cute. My versions of the AU are pretty much kinda just Michael and David playing themselves tbh lmao

20 questions for fic writers
Tagged by @marypsue, thank you!
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
106 so far!
2. What’s your total word count?
321,819, which is somehow both lower and higher than i expected.
3. What fandoms do you write for?
a whole lot; most recently Rise of the TMNT, my fandom on ao3 with the most works is Rise of the Guardians. lots of rises.
4. Top 5 fics by kudos
The Gravity Falls trans dipper one-shot, the FMA Ishvalan!Elrics AU, an into the spiderverse fic, raven cycle pov outsider, and a star wars force awakens one-shot. i give all my fics long song lyric titles so that's all the info yall are getting lmao.
5. Do you respond to comments?
I always start out trying to respond to everything when i post a new fic, but then i get overwhelmed pretty quick. lo siento mucho.
6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I don't usually go for angsty endings tbh! I like a lot of angst in the middle, or i go for kind of bittersweet endings.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
probably that star wars one; force awakens had just come out and i was one of many kylo ren woobifiers who wanted him to have accepted han's invite to come home.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
The most hate i've gotten is on a Different star wars fic where i made Luke trans and some people were Not happy. luckily, i have a permit (i can do what I want).
9. Do you write smut?
yeah lol. i don't post a lot of it though; most of the time i just share it with my discord friends.
10. Do you write crossovers?
all the time all the time babey.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
yes i've been notified 2 or 3 times that someone copied my stuff onto wattpad or ffnet. i usually go report them but don't care enough to follow up.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
I don't think so? not that I can remember. I've had one or two podficced though iirc.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
nnnnot a finished one. my friends and i do a lot of half fic writing and half rp that usually doesn't turn into a polished product (but it's still fun <3).
14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?
ALL TIME FAVORITE FLYNN AND LUCY TIMELESS. i've never written fic for them and the show isn't even GOOD but god the way they look like "she fixed him" bs on the surface but really they're each so perfect to make up for the other's shortcomings. also i always wanted so badly for someone to tell her to get her dog on a leash <3
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you will?
ahaha,,,, the good omens roleswap fic is burning a hole in my document folder. i have an outline i just have no inspiration/motivation :(
16. What are your writing strengths?
characterization; particularly I've gotten the feedback that i'm good at writing characters in different circumstances from canon while keeping their personalities both Intact and Logically Justifiable.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
ending things, both in the sense that i start a lot of stuff and don't finish it, and the sense that i usually have too many ideas and don't know how/where to cut off a plot.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language?
google translate always does me dirty so now i usually just write the dialogue in english and use a dialogue tag like "she said in *insert language*"
19. First fandom you wrote for?
iiiiii think it was Rise of the Guardians! before that i mostly did over-dramatic RP on the cricket magazine forums where i had characters like a half-dragon bounty hunter.
20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?
probably the ishvalan elrics fic! fma is already full of a lot of meaty concepts, and it was fun re-conceptualizing the canon plot and character beats while keeping the arching plot intact. stuff like that is like a puzzle to me, it's very satisfying when i finish one and it gets positive feedback!
tagging anyone who wants to do it, because im. so sleepy rn

I'd love to know more about Everything That’s Meant. Celebrity & Actor AUs are one of my favourite tropes.
You picked that one because you knew it was my favorite, didn’t you? ;) First Good Omens AU I ever started planning - it has a 63-slide PowerPoint and almost 40k words written so far!
Aziraphale Fell is a classically trained actor known for powerful biopics, hindered by the insistence of his brother (Gabriel, head of Celestial Studios) that he stay in the closet. Anthony J. Crowley is known for playing flashy villains and wonders if a hero role will ever be in the cards for him. They’re cast in a series adaptation of Agnes Nutter’s Prophecies, Aziraphale as the angel Raphael and Crowley as the demon Asmodeus, but something feels off... until they realize one late-night rehearsal that it works better if they switch roles! (yes, it’s a roleswap AU within an actor AU lol) Now all they’re up against is a haunted set full of nefarious occurrences, not to mention their own growing feelings for each other, which exhilarate Crowley but terrify Aziraphale as the two become closer and closer.
Fun facts and excerpts under the cut...
Fun facts:
Past Aziraphale roles: SO much Shakespeare, historical/period dramas, Oscar-bait biopics, a heart-wrenching drama called House of Water, mentorly roles in YA genre films, children’s character Dr. Zed Imagination
Past Crowley roles: countless franchise villains with his trademark CGI eyes (Star Trek, Doctor Who, Tron, Avengers), the killer in the Hallows’ Eve films, a recurring villain role on a superhero show called Absolute Powers, some horror cult classics, a few charismatic Disney villains, voice work (the dragon in Goldbreakers, the car in Ride by Dusk)
They meet at a BAFTA afterparty after Aziraphale has given his statuette away
Crowley has trauma-induced photosensitivity from a fall at university. He got the snake tattoo to cover a scar on his temple. He does the makeup cover of it for roles by himself unless the makeup department prefers otherwise.
Aziraphale’s influential family started the angel-name tradition. His mother’s vengeful ex Luke started the demon-name tradition. Now it’s all over the industry, all the way to Hollywood.
Crowley is genderfluid. The tabloids keep spotting ‘mysterious women’ leaving his flat and speculating about why. They’re never right.
Some articles about them...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Excerpt One:
Crowley and Aziraphale shared a look.
“Eminently helpful,” said Aziraphale drily.
Crowley laughed. “No kidding. Why don’t we have a crack at the refreshments table before they take it all down?”
Aziraphale had been eying it all night, and of course Crowley had noticed. “Oh, yes, please,” said Aziraphale, rubbing his hands together and following Crowley over.
Crowley had not been prepared for the sight of Aziraphale eating a chocolate-covered strawberry. It was almost sinful, the red of it against those pink lips, the way Aziraphale closed his eyes as he took it in. It really was a shame no one ever cast him as the sexy lead. He could have pulled it off in a heartbeat.
Crowley had to think of something to say before it drove him mad.
“I loved you in Ordinary Saints,” he said finally, and then mentally kicked himself – sure, be a fanboy, that’s what he wants to hear.
But Aziraphale simply responded with a pleased smile. “Oh, really? I didn’t know you were familiar.”
“Cry every time I see it. Only tragedy I’ll watch, mind – usually I prefer the funny ones.”
“It wasn’t a tragedy. The couple lived happily ever after.”
“Yeah, but you died!” Crowley could feel his hands growing animated but couldn’t stop them. “After everything you did for them! Beautiful death, by the way, but really.”
Aziraphale’s smile grew wider, amusement dancing over his face. “No one’s ever quite defended me that way before.”
Excerpt Two:
“Is it all right that I call you angel?”
Clearly, Aziraphale had not been expecting that. He processed the question for a long moment, then shifted closer to Crowley in the dark. Of course there was still nearly half a sofa between them, but Crowley felt the movement tingling in his bones. “You know, I think it is,” said Aziraphale, hushed, like a secret.
“I don’t want to remind you of – of all that if you don’t…”
“But you see, it doesn’t make me think of that at all.” Aziraphale’s blue gaze turned to the ceiling, contemplative. “It only makes me think of Prophecies. And – and of you. And – you’ll think me silly for this…”
“Not at all,” said Crowley immediately.
“Well. It makes me think that, perhaps…” Aziraphale returned his gaze to Crowley. He had a habit of roaming it over the rest of Crowley’s face – lips, cheekbones, forehead. He seemed to take in Crowley’s expressions, despite the sunglasses, in a way few people ever had. And Crowley was good at communicating around the glasses. But Aziraphale picked up on nuances even beyond his wildest dreams.
Right now, though, Crowley didn’t want to force Aziraphale to do that. For the first time he truly thought about how off-putting it must be, staring back at your own reflection. He lifted the glasses up onto his head and met Aziraphale with his true eyes.
This earned him an intake of breath and a slow, wide smile.
“It makes you think…” Crowley prompted.
“It – right.” Aziraphale seemed to shake himself a bit and return to the moment. His face was wistful and a little awed as he looked back at Crowley, nothing but air between them. “When you call me… angel. That I might be… finally living up to what Mother wanted me to be.”
Crowley couldn’t help the tears that sprang to his eyes. He glanced away at the carpet, blinking them into submission.
So yeah, that’s the actor AU! Hoping to get it out in the next couple of months, but we’ll see. I appreciate anyone who read this far <3

which wips do you have rn?
I'm gonna sort this by fandom (since how active they are is entirely dependent on what fandom)
ATLA (status - the other ones I'm not talking about are all abandoned)
Dishonor on Ozai's Cow - the literal reason I started this tumblr, unfortunately I bit off more than I can chew with the plotting so er... I'm just posting a plot synopsis at this point because I can't just drop it like a hot potato. Premise is postcanon, Ozai is being told to capture the blue spirit to restore his bending (because this is based on a tumblr post thanks leaf)
PJO (status - inactive)
I have a roman percy AU, a gdoc that's entitled "the apotheosis doc" (0 points as to what the premise of that one is), and also a titans win AU where there's some sort of stockholm/lima syndrome mess going on with percy and his undersea captors while there's a mess on the surface maybe
AA/DGS
Mainline: neither of these have titles (status - inactive)
- me imagining franziska as aroace, and the extra layer to her already complicated relationship with the idea of maturity as a result
- AU where phoenix has to present adrian's suicide note as evidence (thanks peg for that again)
DGS (status - I miiight get back to it next month, but only if I'm lucky)
- I'll await that trumpet's wail - kazuma character study (amnesia, those days between 2-3 and 2-4, postcanon)
- the stronghart-van zieks roleswap that I've talked about somewhere on here, pov klint (this is specifically the second setup where klint doesn't end up as notorious serial killer the professor, he kills 1 person tho)
- in the line - vanlock romcom where they're dead and waiting for charon's ferry
- I have a baroryuu wip where... I think I was trying to explore the outside perception of them, iris is learning steno and that's important, also AU where no homophobia
Good Omens (status - current)
- samael theory
- I am very obsessed with the fact that out of all the demons they could've made up, they made up the snake in the garden... so I made him satan a la that tumblr post about paradise lost
- There's this one wip that has been giving me a headache for a whole ass year because it's about revolution and the great man theory and also I'm mostly just having fun with the multimedia format interludes and not writing the fic itself
- Literal plotbunny I just thought of today: some random ass take on a reverse au (that being said, the twist is very important so I kinda just wanna... release it and surprise people)
