Summary
Muriel has been reading, and has learned more about love in Aziraphale's bookshop than in six thousand years of Heaven.
There's a professional right there on Whickber Street -- Muriel's learned what a "euphemism" is, and what a "seamstress" does. Now it's time to acquire a practical education, to really learn what it means to fit in on Earth.

Summary
There's a new shopkeeper on Whickber Street! The newcomer is a comic book seller named Anthony Crowley, a flamboyant character who blasts heavy metal music at full volume, and whose shop is a chaotic mess. Far too boisterous for Aziraphale's delicate nerves.
Their two worlds will clash in the eternal battle between books and comic books. Aziraphale is determined to convert Crowley to the world of literature, a glaring gap in his life; Crowley, on the other hand, is set on broadening Aziraphale’s horizons by introducing him to the world of graphic novels. Will they manage to win each other over?Or:
A fluff-filled fic with a shy and fidgety bookseller and an extroverted and rebel (a lil bit Pre-Fall coded) comic book seller. With Christmas cheer on the side. And basically it's also all an excuse to recommend lots of books and graphic novels to everyone.(✨ NOW COMPLETE ✨)
About the Rating: 95% of the fic reads as M rated, but there’s one chapter with E rated smut in it (addressed in the opening notes of said chapter, and skippable) + another small bit (addressed as well).- Language:

In the Margins by thisisshiny
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV), Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett
10 Oct 2025
Tags
Summary
The London Library is Dr. Aziraphale Fell’s cathedral of calm - the tea in the Member's Room, his notes in immaculate rows in the Reading Room, silence thick enough to hear the dust settle.
But then a stranger dares to scrawl clever little messages in the margins of his favourite books. Outrageous! Inexcusable! And yet… somehow, utterly irresistible.
Anthony Crowley loathes his job and rebels against the futility of life by scribbling wicked little asides in priceless London Library books, never expecting an answer.
Until someone writes back. Someone insufferably prim, precise and ... fascinating.
What begins as a literary battle of wits might just unfold into an adventure neither of them anticipated.

Summary
Fresh off a bitter divorce, Aziraphale fabricates a perfect marriage to get hired at a wedding magazine—just a stepping stone on the way to his dream career. It's a foolproof plan, until he needs to produce said husband for the magazine's annual couples retreat.
Enter Crowley, his best friend's mysterious cousin, who agrees, for his own reasons, to play fake husband for a week—no strings attached, no messy complications.
One problem: the more Aziraphale discovers about the real man behind the act, the less fake his feelings become.
Aziraphale thought the hardest part would be fooling everyone else…

Summary
Human!AU - [completed]
"He saw whole stories in the rocks—animals from the past, environments that had not existed for millions of years. With his imagination and knowledge, he would return to when there was nothing but water in those places—whole oceans, perhaps beaches, or enchanting places that Crowley could barely imagine—hundreds of millions of years embedded in a single fossil, in a single piece of stone.
Aziraphale looked at the mountains and saw the depths of the sea in them.Crowley loved looking at the valleys that stretched out at his feet when he was on top of peaks; he loved the feeling of being on top of the world. He loved the wind and, now and then, the thrill of hanging from a ledge with only one hand.
He loved the mosses that grew in the shadows of the forests at low altitudes and the lichens that bravely clung to the rocks higher up.
Crowley climbed mountains and dreamed of flying".Bookmarked by graywings

Roomba of Doom (some chapters illustrated) by GayDemonicDisaster (scrapheapchallenge) for CynSyn
Fandoms: Good Omens - Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett, Good Omens (TV)
10 Jan 2026
Tags
Summary
Crowley gets an unusual summoning… and a new pet/minion of chaos.
Inspired by a meme: Ouija board rugs: it's all fun and games until the Roomba accidentally summons a demon...
I'm sure you can all see where this is going. Anyhow this was intended as a one off short comedy, but then between me, CynSyn and several other Good Omens fan friends and my other half, we came up with so many more ridiculous shenanigans that Crowley, Aziraphale and Crowley's demonic hellspawn can get up to together that I decided to make this a weekly updated series which continued for over a year.
There won't be any other regular updates, but I'm not discounting the possibility of the odd chapter happening in future if inspiration strikes. For now I'm calling it a completed work. But feel free to keep sending me prompts. You might inspire something more. Thanks for all the love.

Summary
Aziraphale comes back to visit Crowley a few months after the events of season two, and I guess I just love angst because there's a lot of that in the first few chapters. Not to worry. I love happily ever after way more than I love angst. Things are gonna be wacky for a bit though. Chapters containing smut will have a *Smut Alert* in the summary.

Summary
AU fic in which our Ineffable Idiots are simply Anthony Crowley and Avery Fell — friends from infancy, parted by unfortunate circumstance, trying to find their way home.
This was my first human AU, written before I’d joined AO3 or tumblr or had any interaction at all with the fandom. A friend — one of only three people who read my works at the time — simply said to me, “sometimes people write them as humans. Maybe give that a try?” EDD is what happened.
I had no specific plan or goal in mind for this when I began it, aside from a vague idea of how it would begin. The story told itself, and I love Anthony and Avery more than life 💛

Summary
Small like birds, angels and demons are kept in cages by humans and treated as pets.
Everyone knows that angels and demons don’t get along, but when two humans decide to move in together one already has a pet angel and the other a demon. No problem, they’ll just keep them in separate rooms, they’ll never meet. Except, little do they know, the demon is highly skilled at escaping his cage…
Aka. What if Crowley and Aziraphale were basically glorified budgies?
