Summary
Based on a writing prompt I saw:
https://x.com/KaylaAncrum/status/1748613400010121444
"Man who falls in love with a sphynx and solves her riddles daily, in spite of the threat to his life.
The boon he requests every night is to sleep by her side in the warm sand and wake up safe. As he grows old, then forgetful, she reconfigures her riddles to accept any answer."I took this in my own direction.

Summary
"All right, I know I'm going to regret asking this," Aziraphale says. "What exactly does this wager entail?"
Crowley grins like the cat that not only got the cream but has absconded with the entire cow. He grabs the bottle and swigs straight from it despite Aziraphale's tut of disapproval.
"The pot goes to whichever demon can get an angel into bed by the end of the evening."
AKA The Fic That Tumblr Made Me Write. Heaven and Hell share a corporate party once per millennium. This time someone's had the bright idea of issuing a challenge to the demons of Hell. Crowley has no intention of missing the opportunity; Aziraphale's just enough of a bastard to make him work for it.

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
“Crowley.”
“Angel.”
“What's wrong?”
Crowley fidgets. “You can be really annoying sometimes, you know that." Aziraphale holds his silence. “I’m not… hurt.”
“But you,” Aziraphale starts, then bites his lip. “You keep… flinching. Is it—has it always…?”
“What?” Crowley’s face is really so lovingly expressive. “No! No, you—you’re fine. It’s me.”
“Crowley,” Aziraphale says, exasperated, “explain.”
“I, er, drank some poison. On accident.”
“Oh! You should have told me earlier! What is it—do you need—“
“Aziraphale. I’m not dying. But I,” and he swallows, and falls silent again.
“Would you like me to guess?”
“No! How would that be helpful? No.”
“Well what is it then?”
Crowley grumbles something. Aziraphale is quickly coming to the end of his very, very long, almost endless patience—he steps forward and grabs Crowley’s wrist and Crowley makes a noise.
It all goes very still. Aziraphale stays frozen in place, staring at Crowley with wide eyes.
“Are you,” he starts.
“You’re not hurting me,” Crowley mumbles, his face in his hands. Aziraphale makes an inquisitive noise. “I said, you’re not hurting me.”

Summary
after the end of GO2, Crowley finds out he is not as alone as he expected.
angst and comic relief ensue as everyone does their best to adjust to their new realities.
as much of an open happyish ending as possible *without* changing GO2 ep6 and without predicting s3 beyond the obvious.Leonard Cohen, "Tower of Song":
I see you standin' on the other side
I don't know how the river got so wide
I loved you, baby, way back when...
And all the bridges are burnin' that we might've crossed
But I feel so close to everything we lost
We'll never... have to lose it again.Series

Summary
As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:
--His clothing was expensive and stylish;
--He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
--His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
--He looked angry;
--He was wearing sunglasses.What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

Summary
Crowley settled himself a little deeper in his chair, smoothing his skirt. “Lie still now. Close your eyes.” He tilted his own head back and demonstrated.
Warlock flipped to his belly. The blankets were in a heap at his feet, the little blue pyjamas printed with anthropomorphic steam engines rucked up around his knees. “I tried to close my eyes. But they won’t stay closed!”
“Well, when they open, just close them again.”
Warlock squinted his eyes shut dramatically to show willing, but opened them again with a loud, put-upon sigh under a minute later. “I just can’t. Nanny… why can’t I see my eyes?”
Crowley was understanding God’s firm no questions, “because-I-said-so” stance more clearly by the minute.
Two times Crowley put someone he loved to bed, told in parallel.

Summary
“Hey,” said Crowley, and crossed the room quickly. “What’s up?”
Aziraphale looked at him for a long moment, eyes storm-grey and clouded, shoulders tense and slumping. Exhaled, inhaled. Swallowed. Sighed again, heavy and weary. Shook his head. “Nothing new,” he said at last. "It’s only… well, this blasted plague and all that business."
And then his face crumpled, and suddenly Aziraphale was crying, eyes flooding with tears first unshed and then falling. And when Crowley put his arms out and folded Aziraphale into them, the angel almost collapsed against his chest, wracked with the trembles of near-silent sobs.
“It keeps going,” Aziraphale whispered into Crowley’s neck, low and heartbroken and heartbreaking, the words tugging at the piece of Crowley’s heart that knew exactly what Aziraphale meant. “It keeps going. It’s been so long. And it will pass eventually, I know it will. It’s getting better. And things have been so much worse, before. But…”
He trailed off, and Crowley held him, rubbing circles tenderly, soothingly, uselessly on the angel’s back and searching for words.

Summary
“Angel... I will help you, if you let me.”
The faint light caught on wet curls, gleamed in golden eyes. Aziraphale took a breath, and another, and let go.
“Close your eyes,” the demon said, moving closer to him. “Trust me. Trust me.”
Heaven help him, he did.
Or, Crawly finds Aziraphale in rough shape after Sodom and Gomorrah, and helps.
