But It's Pretty..!
im really not great at realism or rendering but it was fun to try again :D black and white with a splash of color really gets me. Im not too comfortable with how i draw crowley yet, but i'll get there. this show has such an iron grip on me (not expecting it to let go anytime soon) this looks way better zoomed in.
Drawn on the Nintendo Switch
I’m trying to find fics that involve Crowleys tattoo being slightly sentient and crawls onto Aziraphale’s skin. A little specific but something I really want to read
Here are a few where Crowley's tattoo moves around...
Slithering Vaguely Downwards, Illustrated by IneffableChocolateCheeseCake & Siblett by GayDemonicDisaster (T)
Inspired by the photos of S2 Crowley with his serpent sigil lower down his cheek than in S1, and previous HCs about it wandering around at will, some comedy crackfic happened the other day. Crowley’s sigil goes on a little adventure of its own, until Crowley calls in Aziraphale to help find it and return it to its rightful place again…
Snake and Ring by die_traumerei (G)
If Crowley can wear Aziraphale's ring, it makes sense that Aziraphale should be able to wear Crowley's tattoo, right?
Temporary Tattoo by cyankelpie (G)
Crowley’s snake tattoo goes on a little adventure and visits Aziraphale. Crowley doesn’t notice it’s missing until halfway to their next assignment, by which time their only option is to write to Aziraphale and ask him to keep the snake safe until Crowley returns.
They wish they’d thought to mention that they can still feel every touch to the snake, but how could they have known how affectionate Aziraphale would be with it?
One of These Days by cyankelpie (G)
Once, Aziraphale, Crowley, and Crowley's sentient snake tattoo made a game of exchanging tiny kisses. After their holy water argument, and their reunion at the church, the game becomes all too real. With their lives more intertwined than ever, can they find a balance between safety and expressing what they feel for each other?
OMG this is the worst thing to ask me, i love to yap about good omens fics like i'm teaching a literature class. i'm so thrilled to have this opportunity, here is my good omens required reading list:
Lie Back and Think of Dinner by jessthereckless (M, 11k) - THE looney tunes sex fic. every time they're intimate, natural disasters happen. it's part of a series, but but this first fic is REQUIRED!! love it, i'll never think of golden syrup the same way ;-)
An Angelic Disposition by iamtheenemy (E, 3k) - established relationship, aziraphale uses every tool in his disposal to give crowley what he wants (despite crowley so dedicated to service topping), and it overwhelms him. MUST READ!!
you’re not a religious person (but) by isozyme (M, 20k) - very true to the spirit of the show and their eternal refusal to communicate while desperately wanting more. this is THE BEST fic re: divine ecstasy being synonymous to sex for them, which is a killer combination!!
roots by darcylindbergh (M, ~10k) - lovely established relationship/south downs fic. it's revealed that aziraphale has always dyed his hair blonde, and the thing that makes this fic VITAL is the acknowledgement that they deliberately choose their presentation and the way the world sees them. more parts of the fandom need to understand this
somewhere, a place for us by aglaophonos (T, ~2k) - i'm biased because i love char and her work, but seriously. read this. if you're ever wondering why me and her are constantly talking about 1941 s3, this 1941 continuation fic she wrote encapsulates every reason WHY
Lead me to the banquet hall by obstinatrix, wishwellingtons (E, 15k) - i mean. i mean. it's The Cheesecake Fic. why is crowley content to watch aziraphale eat, and how does he cope with that same hunger when aziraphale ISN'T there? you simply have to read this if you haven't, and reread it if you have
affection and other cravings by JustStandingHere (E, 30k) - this is THE post s2 fic you need to read. through its historical flashbacks and precarious re-introduction of aziraphale and crowley's relationship following their fight, all through the lens of food... honestly that's what it's all about!
these are what i would consider to be required reading, as in - you will come away from these fics with a better understanding of the canon, which (in my opinion) is what elevates a fic from the rest. but if you'd like to check out the other fics i adore, my bookmarks are where i save every fic i enjoy reading, and it's about 99% good omens so you can always visit that if you're looking for something to read that'll be true to the spirit of the show!!
