Thank you, @gemennair for this perfection! If I could, I would weave a laurel wreath out of the starlight gathered from the Fields of Gold for you, Gemennair. Thank you again, to @lady-wallace for your writing and @29-pieces for your “Goodnight, my Angel” performance. You are both such lovely, talented, and beautiful people. <3 

A Mid-Millenia Crisis (Good Omens)

This is a gift fic for @cafelatte100​ commissioned by @3skydream3​ 

I hope you both enjoy this ^_^

The apocalypse is off, Aziraphale and Crowley are out of a job, and now they have nothing to do. Until Aziraphale discovers something that might help them through their own immortal brand of midlife crisis.

Cafelatte100, hope you forgive me that I couldn’t choreograph any detailed plots or visions that are comparable to some I’ve seen you submit like the Forgotten Lullaby, Owl and Blackbird, and Deep Down Good. But Lady-wallace has been so incredibly nice even if I’m not a prompt architect like you. xD Just tells you how amazing Lady Wallace really is. I hope this gift makes you smile and I have no doubt it will because you can’t go wrong with anything Lady-wallace does. @lady-wallace you’re simply AWESOME and thank you for making this gift for cafelatte. Also if I haven’t said it already, I absolutely adore your non-commissions too. Some of my all time favorites of your original stories are Above and Below and Upward and Downward. We just adore you and your works, and please also stay well and healthy!  

wow, thank you! @3skydream3, why are you apologizing for a gift I'm sure I will love it! Lady-Wallace writes beautifully, always! This is such a wonderful gift, I am so touched! I can't wait to read it! Thank you so much @lady-wallace and @3skydream3!

@anonangelicdemon your quote reminds me of Mozart’s piano concerto No.23 2nd movement, --Adagio. I totally love this quote! But I think a major key can make you ache deeply as well...  like in a huge sad brightness kind of way... I’m no writer but this is the best I can do lol

Forgotten Lullaby Pt. 2 (Good Omens)

For @cafelatte100

The final part is now up!

“Just a second, alright? You’ll be fine soon enough. Just…”        

    Something hot burned through his middle, and at first, he had no idea what had happened. Even when he looked down and saw what had happened, his mind refused to process it.       

      In Aziraphale’s hand was a small blade of shimmering angelic steel. It was a holy blade, burning through Crowley’s very soul where it was buried in his gut.

Forgotten Lullaby Pt. 1 (Good Omens)

Commission fic for @cafelatte100 Hope you enjoy! 

Part 2 will be up Sunday.

~~~~~~~

It’s been many years since Aziraphale and Crowley stopped the apocalypse but both Heaven and Hell are looking for round two and they’re not going to let these two get in the way again. When they set a trap, kidnapping the child who is destined to stop WWIII it’s everything Crowley and Aziraphale can do to stay together and get out alive. (Gen)

It was in the eve of Eden where in the garden green

The Serpent and the Angel met under that first rain’s silver sheen.

It was as unlikely a friendship as ever was found

And yet the two from Heaven and Hell were as one soul bound.

It was while under the Angel’s wing where the Demon shelter took

From the cool silvery droplets as thunder the Heavens shook

That he began to think of a memory from long ago;

Of a place among the stars where a heavenly tree did grow.

For under Heaven’s protection from the droplets from above

It reminded the Demon yet of another place he loved.

A place that offered shelter, from storm, anger and wrath,

A place he visited many times before straying from Heavenly path.

Amidst the budding friendship that encompassed these two beings,

The Demon called the Angel toward that Heavenly scene.

The Angel was always curious, so eagerly he went;

The Demon’s heart was filled with joy to show the Angel his testament.

For a testament it was to the friendship the Demon had—

Despite the fact that others would think his choice quite mad.

For he had felt something different under the Angel’s pearly wing,

Something he hadn’t known since he’d heard Heaven’s warm lights sing.

The constellations shown like gems when the Demon pulled the Angel toward the stars,

Past the firmament, past the Earth, past the glowing Moon and Mars,

And far past anything the human eye could see

Sat, in a nebula all alone, one glistering, starry tree.

The light from those stars was gentle and soft

Like a sweet Summer breeze that lifted a bird aloft.

It’s branches, its trunk, its leaves—all made from Heavenly Light

And never, in all of Creation, had the Angel seen such a beautiful sight.

The Angel was speechless, and the Demon as well,

For nothing like this had come from Heaven, and certainly not from Hell.

And yet the Angel felt, as he reached out with gentle finger,

That the Demon’s life, his creative touch, upon those stars did linger.

The Demon stood by silently, unable to form a word,

For what he felt about those stars the Angel surely, in their singing, heard.

For the Demon’s intention was clear in what this tree did mean

And the Angel felt his friendship grow with everything he’d seen.

This starry tree the Demon made was watching over all

And nothing about that had changed, no matter he’d taken a Fall.

And as the Angel had sheltered him in the Garden on that day,

This tree was a Heavenly wing saying what the Demon could not say.

But the Angel understood; no words were needed here!

And the Demon relaxed, and smiled softly, washing away his own fear.

On opposite sides they might be, but of the same stars they were both made:

When a Demon shelters an Angel, even Hell’s darkest soul could be saved.

@lady-wallace and @whiskerdrops I'm absolutely moved to tears. You two took me to a place of such heights where I don't know how to come back down to earth and I don't know if I want to right now! Thank you so much, both of you! :’) :’) <3!!!!!!!!!!
