Ngl, i was dubious at the end of the first chapter, but as you keep going on, it gets better and better. It weaves in crack and plot and youd think it wouldnt work but it does, and its just great. Theres so many great lines, its just incredible, but the serious stuff is just as strong! And the ending.. honestly terrifying, i think more zombie apocalypse stories need to have the virus or what ever evolve, thatd keep the stakes high, and the story wouldnt get stale! Might just steal that one for myself, hehe... anyways, this was great, amazing execution, 10/10

Summary
“Try to relax your shoulders. Be one with your body, do not fight it.”
Atoms separated them. Will swallowed. With a deep, steadying breath, he allowed his shoulders to drop. It felt better, the pull at his muscles easier. His chin lifted naturally. Projecting to the balcony.
Hannibal smiled. “That’s good, Will.”
Dancers are dying at a local ballet company. With local law enforcement convinced it's an inside job, promising FBI agent and ex-dancer Will Graham is sent undercover to investigate. When he meets renowned ballet dancer Hannibal Lecter, it becomes clear that the investigation will be anything but straightforward.

This is absolutely beautiful. Now, i know what youre thinking, youre thinking " oh no.. oh no, NO- NOT AGAI-" yes again. But its okay, the last update is pretty satisfying, and it was only a little over a year ago and theyre posting other stuff, so they might go back to it, might not, eother way, i think its still worth the read. Now its always a treat to explore these adaptations of Will and Hannibal and seeing them through the author's lense, but a big change is always refreshing and like rediscovering these characters and watching it unravel on a new path from the new factors. You wouldnt think that from reading the description, just the run of the mill changing of circumstances, but its changed a pretty big factor- Hannibals got a cat... oh and also Will has a mom and did you read that abuse tag? That, and the circumstances of his childhood, all change so much, and i really enjoyed watching it.
Its beautifully writen, the characters are suprisingly fitted to their roles and well applied, the insight we get from our canon knowledge provides some insights Will is privy to - always a treat - and i fully recommend it. The author is totally free to do as they wish, and if they dont wish to continue i understand and wish them luck on their writing endeavors! I actually think ill read their OFMD fics~ hm? Oh yes, got side tracked- 10/10!

Summary
Aziraphale is firmly of the belief that, according to the old texts, three steps are all that keep one from their heart’s greatest desire. Where is the harm in attempting them? - Everywhere, apparently, as he soon finds out when he’s trapped inside his bookshop, fighting for his life.
All Crowley asks is a little more variety to his daily routine. But coming home to his flat one night to an out-of-this-century person curled up asleep on his couch is probably just the universe mocking him now.
There sure are some strange ways for two people to be brought together.

I dont know why, but im absolutely in LOVE with this fic!! First of all, the opening scene was fucking terrifying, for a bit i thought prehaps those people were going to chase after Az but they didn't! Because of course they wouldnt, the ritual is all about making your greatest desire come true, i doubt their greatest deisre is to chase Az into the 21st cetury, but i guess you cant take the dramatic out of this dramatic idiot. Anyways... i love the way the Az speaks! Hes truly a Victorian, and i love the idea that Crowley doesnt know a quarter of the words Aziraphale says. And the way Crowley caters to Aziraphale's culture and traditions is so considerate! I was wondering why he calls Aziraphale Fell through out the story, but i think its him saving the first name till after marriage, which i believe is something people used to do. And Aziraphale being so confused by modern things, even small things, is very realistic, and i love it.
Its just so tragic how Aziraphale was resigned to being one, not just for some made up reason or other, but because of the penalties for being gay back then. And then the disbelief when hes finally able to have what hes always wanted, nonetheless with someone he loved, its just so sweet and heart breaking! And he lost the bookshop! Its fitting, him having to pay a hefty price to find true love and happiness, but his poor books... And Crowley, sweet Crowley, ngl, it was hilarious watching them fight in the first chapter. He struggled, but he ultimately did all he could to help Az, even when it was the last thing he wanted. They got real close at the end, made me nervousz but im so glad everything worked out!
Also, i love the magic system, and how Az was the first to be able to decipher the spell, and to spend it on something as wholesome as a companion. It was so fun to see as he descrobed how to do the ritual, and hes so clever, being able to figure it out! I love a good fish out of water, and my ranting doesnt quite do it justice. Trust me, its great fun, so sweet, 10/10!

Summary
"The forest looms at the edge of the road, almost swallowing the narrow path under the sieved canopy of lush greenery.
The sky burns red with the last rays of sun, Crowley's watch showing him that, despite things going sideways in such a spectacular way, there's still at least an hour until dusk. Some time for him to fuck things up even more, while trying to find a way out of here before night settles.
He doesn't want to be here, lost and alone, once the darkness creeps in.
With a stalled engine and no reception, there's not much he can do but try to find help somewhere."
Or
Crowley finds himself lost in the middle of a forest, only to be helped by a kind but lonely stranger. (We all know how this goes)Series

There was that one murder Az, but this one is by far the one with the most red flags. Though they make sense with the knowledge we learn from the description and tags, with out that knowledge, Aziraphale looks like a serial killer, and Crowley isnt making things hard for him. He told an ominous stranger that he told no one he was leaving the city, while choosing to ignore the numerous unsettling things, in favor of drooling over this hot dude. Good things this was a good omens fic rather than Hannibal.. and he really lucked out in the end, getting railed by a werewolf and having his happily ever after.
Despite everyone being idiots, i really liked the ominous feels! I dont know why, but i love horror paired with good omens. I guess it provides a safer space for me to consume the genre, where i normally cant despite my love for it. While this isnt quite horror, its still got a lot of unsettling moments, and that leads to the characters!
I really like this Aziraphale, both in depiction and interpretation, he comes across as more reserved, quiet, wary and tired. I imagine him with a more mellow voice than normal, and having a rather burdened feel about him. And i like this idiotic crowley as well! Him always goin fast, as he tends to, but wanting to slow down in favor of treasuring this kind, thoughtful, and peculiar stranger. And the climax (heh) was really nice! A good resolution i think, and im so glad for air to be cleared! 9/10!

Summary
Maybe he’d shown Crowley how to perform a few miracles, but that Crowley had taken to them so well was surely a sign that he wasn’t all bad. And maybe Aziraphale had let himself be called upon to perform a few temptations, but that was just testing the will of the faithful if you looked at it from a different angle.
He wouldn’t have needed to resort to these techniques, he told himself, if Heaven hadn’t recalled so many of their other agents over the years, if humans with their sins and their saintliness hadn’t multiplied quite so quickly, if someone had explained to him precisely his position in the Plan. But they hadn’t, and he had to get along somehow.
And anyway, if it were really so bad someone surely would have told him to stop doing it.

This fic was incredible, and really special as it was made before the show was released, and so its the writer's preception and adaptation of only book Aziraphale and Crowley, which are different in their own ways. Now i cant comment a lot on it, because i only read some of the book, and what i know is based on fanworks, but regardless. Honestly i kind of dont have any thoughts to share??? I dont know why, but it really is an incredible work, and i love the way the author explores the characters! And the system is a bit different than most, having the church's beliefs also infuence heaven's. This is above my paygrade to analyze tbh, its incredible, im not smart enough to say much other then i like it and recommend it lol. 10/10!
