I know nobody in the Good Omens fandom is at a loss for fic to read, but
elisi has just posted a story:
I do happen to think it perfect, and that's only partially because I've spent the last several weeks of my life attempting to punctuate it. It manages to encompass both Dylan Moran and Catholic mysticism, with all the tonal range that implies. The structure has a kind of eclectic, time-hopping, Moffat-y quality to it. Most importantly, however, is that it is a proper established relationship fic, set several years after the apocalypse, and therefore does things with the relationship dynamics that I've see very few other fics attempt. Aziraphale and Crowley are my favorite 'good and evil' ship by . . . just ridiculous amounts, and this fic explores why in a really beautiful way.
I dearly wish I could wipe it from my brain just so I could have the chance to read it again for the first time. Alas, I've no way to do that, so I need to live vicariously through others. Go and read.

Summary: ‘Not going to war because they're still in bed at two in the afternoon, with the sheets coiled about their knees, lying there, smoking a Gauloises inside a Gitanes, and sweating Nice Sancerre.’ x
Or: Heaven goes to check on their errant angel. They do not like what they find. Also contains the complexities of an evolving relationship, nice helpings of poetry and 14th century angst.
