Le diable sonne à trois heures (on Wattpad) https://www.wattpad.com/story/252179857-le-diable-sonne-%C3%A0-trois-heures?utm_source=web&utm_medium=tumblr&utm_content=share_myworks&wp_uname=URU_94&wp_originator=01JJYPw3KH0bEV2N4EMf5Of5KiJCXlSEg1H0vUiiX%2FmLi2nJJsGGSrDT0E%2BfRxgLzn9QWZOB5yOCy6rEK0qZ1JC1imF7zm%2Bp0sfPxQBifH0b0%2BPh2xriYGgqJUh2IW8f Salut tout le monde! Ce récit fait part des défis du Discord en français sur Good Omens, “Fic inspirée d'un fanart”. Il correspond à ma libre interprétation de mon chapitre préféré du fancomics “From the ashes of Hellfire” sur instagram. L'auteur est emmettleeart . Malheureusement, iel a eliminé la bd car iel a décidé de ne pas continuer avec son histoire. C'est très dommage, car un de mes préférés, mais respectable. Je voulais quand même partager ce petit OS. Pour résumer , Aziraphale à été forcé par les anges à chuter, et ni lui ni Crowley ne le vivent bien. Vous pouver me retrouver sur Instagram et Tumblr comme mimuranda, où je dessine aussi de temps en temps. Pour mes autres réseaux, vous pouvez consulter mon carrds qui est dans la bio aussi bien d'instagram que de tumblr. N'hésitez pas à commenter et me faire connaître votre avis.

Here is the scanned and cleaned version. It was made to be coloured, so go for it, post your art and please tag me ^^

Happy New Year, the best fandom ever!)

Good Omens Fanfic Friday (13 Dec 2024)

Sorry, Right Number (2K; Rated T) by @waitingtobebroken

Human AU. Apparently @waitingtobebroken recs are just going to be a weekly thing with me now. Aziraphale calls a phone sex line in this dialogue-only short. For business reasons, of course.

***

And I Did (85K; Rated E) by @di-42

This post-S2 just finished, and it's a wonderful story of the Supreme Archangel working with Grand Duke of Hell, Crowley, to stop the Second Coming. Has some great original angels and demons, and a *very* satisfying ending.

***

Reading Circle Summons (34K; Rated T) by @joyandotherstories

A companion fic to Slumber Party Summons (29K; Rated G), where instead of Crowley getting summoned, a group of older women accidentally summons Aziraphale. He and Crowley become friends with the ladies and join in their reading circle activities. The story includes excerpts from their monthly book choices, some of which are deliberately and hilariously bad.

***

Abyssal (40K; Rated E) by @snae-b

Human AU. Another excellent and terrifying sci-fi story from @snae-b. This time Aziraphale is an oceanologist and Crowley is a submersible pilot whose (secret due to fraternization policies in the contract) relationship is already established when the story begins. They're on the last day of their two-month stint five miles below the ocean. The rest of the team has already surfaced, and Aziraphale and Crowley are looking forward to twelve glorious hours alone. Except, they're not alone, and something is hunting them.

To celebrate the big news (f***** yeah !!!! Season 2), I finished my most important project

Yup, indeed! I now have a Patreon account.

This is a huge milestone for me, and it took some convincing from wonderful people to finally take the leap. (You know who you are 🤍)

I still can't fully comprehend that I've actually done it...

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for all your support over the past 12 months. Your constant encouragement and comments has driven me to continually push my boundaries, refine my skills, and create better artwork. I still have a Iong long way to go but I wouldn't have reached this point without you and I'm excited for what's still to come.

Folks let me talk about Crowley and sunglasses, because I have a lot of emotions about when he wears them and when he doesn’t, and Hiding versus Being Seen.

We’re introduced to the concept of Crowley wearing glasses even before we’re introduced to Crowley, by Hastur: “If you ask me he’s been up here too long. Gone native. Enjoying himself too much. Wearing sunglasses even when he doesn’t need them.”

Honestly Crowley’s whole introduction is a fantastic; we learn so much about his character in a tiny amount of time. The fact that he’s late, the Queen playing as the Bentley approaches, the “Hi, guys” in response to Hastur and Ligur’s “Hail Satan”. I like this intro much better than the one originally scripted with the rats at the phone company, but I digress.

Crowley wears sunglasses when he doesn’t need them. Specifically, he still wears them around the demons, and when he’s in hell.

You know where Crowley doesn’t wear glasses? At home.

We never once see him wearing glasses in his flat, except for when he knows Hastur and Ligur are coming. That’s an emotional kick to the gut for me. Here’s one of the only places Crowley’s comfortable enough to be sans glasses, and when he knows it’s going to be invaded he prepares not just physically with the holy water, but by putting up that emotional barrier in a place where he wasn’t supposed to need it.

An argument could be made that Crowley actually never needs glasses. We’re shown that it’s well within the angels’ and demons’ powers to pass unnoticed by humans. Crowley and Aziraphale waltz out of the manor in the middle of a police raid, and going unnoticed by the police takes so little effort that they can keep up a conversation while they stroll through. Even an unimaginative demon like Hastur apparently doesn’t have trouble with the humans losing it over his demonic eyes. The humans in the scene at Megiddo are acting like “this guy is a little weird” and not “holy shit his entire eyeballs are black jelly”

That means that Crowley’s glasses are a choice, just like Aziraphale’s softness. Sure, he could arrange matters so that nobody ever noticed his eyes, but he doesn’t want to. Crowley wants acceptance, and he wants to belong, and he’s never, ever had that. He didn’t fit in before the Fall in Heaven, he doesn’t fit in with the demons in Hell. With the glasses, and with the Bentley and his plants and with the barely-bad-enough-to-be-evil nuisance temptations, he’s choosing Earth. This is where he wants to fit in, perhaps not with the humans, but amongst them.

Even after Crowley is at his absolute lowest, when he thinks Aziraphale’s dead and he’s on his way to drink until the world ends, he takes the time to put a new pair on when the old ones are damaged. He needs that emotional crutch right now, even with everything about to turn into a pile of puddling goo he’s not ready for the world to see his eyes.

Which is why I swore out loud when Hastur forcibly takes them off.

It’s about the worst thing that Hastur could have done. Rather than leading with a physical threat, his first act is to strip away Crowley’s emotional defences. It’s a great writing choice because god it made me hate Hastur, even more than all the physical violence we see him do.

It’s also the moment that Crowley really truly gets his shit together, and focuses all of his considerable imagination on getting to Tadfield and Aziraphale to help save the world. He’s wielding the terrifyingly unimaginable power of someone who’s hit rock bottom and realised it literally could not get any worse than this. He doesn’t put another pair of glasses on after discorporating Hastur, and he spends the majority of the airbase sequence without them.

He puts them back on again, I think, at the moment that he really lets himself hope. When he thinks ‘shit, there may be a real chance that we get through this to a future that I don’t want to lose’.

The vulnerability is back, and he needs Adam to trust him. In Crowley’s mind being accepted by a human means he needs to have his eyes hidden. Someone give the demon a hug, please.

Interestingly, there’s only one time in the whole series that we see Crowley willingly choose to take his glasses off around another person. Only one person he’ll take down that barrier for, and even then he’s drunk before he does it.

Dear God/Satan/Someone that makes my heart ache. Crowley’s chosen Earth, but he’s also chosen Aziraphale. He’s been looking for somewhere to belong his entire existence, and it’s with the angel that he finally feels it.

When the dust settles and the world is saved and they finally have space to be themselves unguarded, I like to imagine Crowley takes off the glasses when it’s just the two of them; the idea of being known doesn’t scare him quite so much anymore.  

Mr Cortese and Mr Harrison GO Tutors (AU?) PIC as a thank you to all the peeps who just wow. MADE FICS. (And art)

This is a Mr Cortese and Mr Harrison Crowley and Aziraphale fan post. I don’t know what else to call it.

(Sorry I’m really slow reacting to things and it takes me a bit of a run up to catch up, and in general- I’m very very rubbish at conversation and replies? It’s a combo of nerves and executive disfunction.)

Recently I posted a thing about the Tutors- Mr Cortese and Mr Harrison and my interest in more fics about them, and SO MANY PEOPLE CAME UP WITH FICS. (Really fast. Goodness. I am jealous of your creative speed.)

Anyhoot- below is a TUTORS FIC LIST and you’re welcome to add to it!

Most of these are sexy. Be warned.
