Introducing: the Good Omens polar multiverse

A series of queer, gender-playful, kinky stories about humans and mythological beings

Set mainly in Antarctica during 1911, and heavily inspired by the real-life events of the Terra Nova Expedition. In all cases, the main human character is based on George Murray Levick, naval surgeon and zoologist of the Northern Party. A lot of creative liberty was taken, but I expect his ghost will be coming to haunt me one of these days.

It all began as an 800-word oneshot, which then turned into 400k words over the span of five months. There are eight stories so far:

[click into the series to read the list in the notes — it won’t fit in the description, oops]

1. I have my ways of knowing (the polar siren AU; 190k words, 42% smut, POV human sub Crowley, M/M-ish)
2. Antarctic Heat (an omegaverse AU of the polar siren AU; 30k words, 70% smut, POV human sub omega transmasc Crowley, M/M)
3. Antarctic Winds (a tentacle AU of the polar siren AU; 6600 words, 66% smut, POV human bottom Crowley, M/?)
4. Hello, sailor (the polar selkie AU; 90k words, 50% smut, POV human sub Aziraphale, M/F)
5. Polar Parallels (a crossover between the polar selkie and siren AUs; 50k words, 60% smut, POV human sub Aziraphale, all the genders)
6. Seven Plus One (a group sex story involving the selkie version of almost every demon character from canon; 6000 words, 80% smut, POV human sub Aziraphale, M/M with offscreen M/F)
7. Royal Violets (a sapphic selkie story; 20k words, 50% smut, POV selkie dom Crowley, featuring butch dom Nina and femme sub Maggie, F/F/F with a bit of separate M/F)
8. Royal Battle (a follow-up sapphic story; 11k words, 40% smut, POV selkie dom Crowley, exploring a sexually-charged power struggle between her and Nina, F/F with a bit of separate M/F)

To be clear, no men are involved in the sapphic stuff. The M/F in those last two fics is between Aziraphale and Crowley, who are very happily married at that point.

Also, I should mention that Aziraphale is very autistic in all of the selkie stories (and that I, the author, am very autistic as well).

You’ll probably enjoy at least some of these fics if you’re into any of the following things: science, history, literature, soft magic systems, Greek and Celtic mythology, mysterious pasts, intertwined fates, wet & messy stuff, a vast array of BDSM and sexual practices, discovering the self and the other, plenty of love and lust.

UPDATE: I've spent all of December 2025 working on the next selkie story. It's 42k words so far, and it's gonna be a long one. It features multiple POVs, kitchen table polyamory, many new characters, extensive world building, a complex plot, and plenty of smut.
