*Minor Spoilers* It's here! The finale of one of the most entertaining and immersive fanworks that I have ever experienced is finally upon us! I feel like most of you who follow me here are aware of this fanfic or have read it. However, for those who haven't or might come across this post later: I'm begging you to read this one. Buckle up; it's a long post today.
So, if you're not aware, this fanfic involves writer Crowley and fan artist Aziraphale. Crowley, being ace, seeks a boyfriend to shield him from unwanted attention during an upcoming convention. Aziraphale, smitten, agrees to be the fake boyfriend. This Arrangement is sure to work out exactly as planned!
Every one of the author's stories feels cinematic to me. The worlds are always so real and immersive, but this one, in particular, will have you feeling like you're actually watching the story unfold in real life. Some of that is achieved through embedded media like chats, artwork, and Tumblr posts, bringing a sense of reality to these conversations. The rest comes from really rich prose. You'll flow through it very easily, yet deeply.
The use of fandom and a convention as the backdrop for this fic was, to be honest, genius. I've seen attempts before, but none captured the spirit quite like this one. The fandom lore for The Nice and Accurate Prophecy (the in-universe fandom they're in) was rich enough for us to fully grasp the shape and feel of why they loved it so much, yet it never impedes the ongoing story. This story perfectly captured what it's like to be a fan: how friendships develop, how ideas and fan theories are freely discussed, the passion for a shared topic. The con, in particular, will fill anyone who has ever attended a fan convention with a strong dose of nostalgia and love. Oh, and having them in their 50s? Thank you! There is no age limit to fandom!
Having Aziraphale as the artist and Crowley the writer was not the most obvious choice, but it's one that worked amazingly well for the story! Crowley struggles with words and expressing his feelings in real life. However, in stories, he can build his own world and express whatever emotions are on his mind. Aziraphale, who does not wish to draw attention to himself in real life, expresses himself through his bold and beautiful artwork. His specialization in traditional, physical artwork is so fitting for him, though he's not unwilling to try new tech. There is a scene where they stumble upon some street art that Aziraphale had done. I teared up at that scene, and it's not even angsty! Just the casualness of it, how it's not Aziraphale but Crowley who boldly leads them to it, how Aziraphale doesn't sing his own praises. He's not self-deprecating, but he doesn't celebrate his work. He's still learning that he has value that's worth celebrating. At least now he has Crowley to teach him to be proud of himself.
They are both beautifully written characters. It's a real testament to the skill of the author to bring these characters into such a different reality and have them be unmistakably Aziraphale and Crowley. Sure, they're updated for the time and setting, but their souls are still the angel and demon we know and love. This setting is an amazing way to explore the different sides of their personalities. Crowley's asexuality, in particular, was one of the best depictions I've ever read. It brought a new level of understanding to me, and I'm sure many of you will feel a kinship with him. Really pay attention to what's being said here, there's some really deep and insightful passages that are worth analyzing. Like this moment, which may have been a subconscious thought, but again speaks to how deeply the author understands the characters.
This was such an amazing experience as a fan. I've never had a fic feel like this much of an event before. Every chapter drop was so exciting; I never knew what exactly to expect. And now, with the end being over 100k words?? Where did that word count come from! That's insane! I'm sad to leave this iteration, but I'm so excited for what's to come next. So please, if you haven't read this, give it a try. It's such a impressive work, so much time and effort was put into this and you can tell. It's not only a love letter to Good Omens, but one to fandom and fanspaces as well. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this journey
There are some explicit scenes towards the end, but they are all marked and skippable, so I'd say you're perfectly fine reading this in public.
Edit from after actually seeing the finale: no I’m not tearing up it’s just really dusty in this room. I’m being so normal rn 🥹🥹🥹

erm redesign oopsies but anyways some notes about party pals redesign and og! used and ocs ig….
made them look more like kinito to fit the au since it’s a swap au
made the party hat smaller kind of like fanon ennards hat
I gave them cursor like tail— so you can tell it’s supposed to be player
They go by pal or y/n, doesn’t matter which is kinito calls them pal, while sawyer and oliver call them y/n
Made OG! Player look like prismo from adventure time, thought it would suit them since they are depicted as a black box in KinitoPet
Yes OG player uses gen alpha slang despite not being gen alpha, don’t ask!! 🔥🔥🔥
they think it’s fucking hilarious
Sawyer and Oliver sorta get along (they tolerate each other for y/n)
they both show distaste towards kinito (both swap and og kinito)
they like jade and sam tho
Kinitoswap is different then kinitopet with more sorta Andy’s Apple Farm and BrandonWorks sort of themes/elements

Pomni + Zoobles designs for my TADC Rave AU
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I am basically done with all the girls, I just have to give them an info sheet like above, but the guys are still a wip 😬
I’ve got a lot of ideas for Caine so his design may end up slightly tweaked from when you first saw him

Todays thinky thought: the Soldier first class fan clubs
I've got to be honest I need more fan fics where the fan clubs are hard at work with fan art, fics and edits. And look I know Crisis Core is set in the very early 2000 and thus the internet (if we are super imposing actual historical timelines over FFVII timelines) would be in its very early infancy at this point come on man.
Give me Cloud being aware of, and participating in, the fandom;
give me Genesis moogling himself out of morbid curiosity and getting weirdly misha collins level invested in the fan fictions written about him.
Give me Angeal being shown mildly explicit fan art of himself on a talk show and going so red the host is worried he'll pass out.
Give me zack having secret social media accounts to lurk in his own fandom and to collect black mail content for the other firsts.
Give me Sephiroth being blissfully unaware of how unhinged the silver elite are about him until he meets cloud who is all like "oh you sweet summer child"
Give me Genesis and Zack live tweeting Clouds dramatic reading of a fandom wide notorious Y/N x Sephiroth fic that had both Sephiroth and Angeal curled up in agonising embarresment while Gen is pissing himself laughing and Zack has fallen off the chair after snorting beer through his nose.
Give me Clouds social Media then blowing up and him becoming internet famous as the "normal guy that hangs around with the trinity elite and Zack fair". He gets so many questions and while he respects the boys privacy he does get them to answer some of the less prying ones.
Give me Hojo trying to sue a really popular fanfiction site for copy right infringment on the Sephiroth trademark and Sephiroth himself shutting Hojo down.
Give me Genesis being asked to talk at a convention and him getting so much fan art and gifts they have to hire a van to pack it into.
Give me Zack doing a running commentary on some of the footage edits on youtube that he has seen and likes. "dude that one with sick beat behind it was so well editted I'm gunna have to do more acrobatic stunts for you guys!"
Just give me all of it!

this is my design of TADC Jax in an AU I'm currently developing. it's a post-apocalyptic/dystopian story bc I love making those lol
I think I'm going to call the AU "Beyond the Circus Grounds" bc it references where the story begins.
Also, this takes place in a non-digital world. The only thing similar to the digital aspect of the original tadc is the fact that the area called 'The Grounds' is closed off in a digital dome. It's there to protect it from outside threats.
idk when I'll be able to work on and post the other character's designs, but feel free to ask questions about the AU while you're waiting (if you're interested)
Jax is the mechanic of the group, btw 👍

I have the sudden urge to write out my Wings of Fire AU I made in 2021-
All of the villains go to school together. They’re buds, and they’re complete opposites of their book counterparts. Because I thought it’d be funny to make Chameleon and Whirlpool besties, same with Darkstalker and Albatross.
And during this school year, Chameleon gets a scroll and a pen as a gift and he starts drawing like all of his other entities in the books, but as these dragons he made up. And those entities start following him around as his reflection and start talking to him in his head to warn him about what’s going to happen.
All of the villains in the school die one by one, in very similar ways to how the book counterparts die. Think of it as a canon event. Whirlpool gets electrocuted. Scarlet gets her face melted and her neck snapped. Albatross gets impaled. That kinda stuff. But Chameleon has never been confirmed dead in the books, correct? So he survives all this.

Some info about Detective Fear and Thief Joy's relationship (:
(Fear is 31 and Joy is 33 in this AU)
(also I would have put some songs for them, but I can only think of maybe one or two and it feels like a copout not to put all three)

Courage the Cowardly Dog au
(Holy cow, I’m back into the fandom)
Info about the au:
Muriel hears a knock from the door and opens it to find a basket left on the front porch. Upon bringing it inside, she discovers a baby kitten and decides to keep it. However, Eustace is not happy with this decision as he already dislikes Courage. Muriel asks Courage to take care of a kitten while she goes out shopping. Eustace, however, tries to get rid of the kitten but fails due to Courage's intervention. Eventually, Courage and the kitten fall asleep on a rocking chair, and Muriel finds them sleeping upon her return.
Basically it of the au lol
Extra Info lol:
Muriel made the mittens inspired by the nursery rhyme, Three Little Kittens
Courage just accepts being called Mama and Mom by Mittens
Courage becomes a parent model and gets mad whenever someone bullies or accuses Mittens of something
Mittens is the opposite of Courage when it comes to scary people, creatures, or things, she’s always curious 👀
Mittens calls Muriel, Grandma, and calls Eustace, Mean Old Monster
Mittens, in the art, yappers about how she met a group and yaps about how they look weird and cool
More art and maybe animations are coming 👀👀

Me: I gotta continue my fanfics.
Also Me: I gotta doodle to get inspo for them.
Mr Brain: We've got fifty plotlines, bro. You don't need that inspo. You just want an excuse to design your AU, even if you're never going to post those pics.

I haven't posted in a bit bc I've been struggling to figure out the designs for the characters in my TADC AU (Beyond the Circus Grounds), but I finally came up with this design for Pomni. I hope y'all like it bc it took me a while to decide what to make that's unique enough to be recognizable without straying too far away from the source material.
I'll be making a ref sheet for her like the ones I did for Jax and Ragatha soon, I just wanted to post this so people know I haven't given up on it lol
