'If Aziraphale didn’t know better, he might have thought his friend was crying, but it had been centuries since he’d seen Crowley do that.'
This week's fic is from the Good Omens fandom - the Amazon Prime TV series based on the book by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman that I still haven't gotten around to reading (*gasps*!)
And I think what impresses me the most about this fic is the way that it somehow manages to weave the content of the fic almost seamlessly into the canon.
It's Thursday, spring has sprung here in sunny Wales, let's get some superhero-y, comics-y, goodness!

Last December, I got kicked off the UK Amazon Associates Programme.
I am so not happy.
I've tried pretty much everything to sort this out - but Amazon UK don't seem to care.
So I will do what I do in situations like this - I will put it all out there on the table, in it's full stalling-tactics, arbitrary, frustrating glory.
(This is a long one - feel free to bookmark it and come back, but I would really, really, appreciate you reading this. 💖)
My darling dearest nerdlets, you don't get rid of me that easy.
I don't just 'leave it,' not when I know I did nothing wrong.
I will keep going, again and again.
And so here we are...
'For Klaus, there are – approximately – seven million people crammed into this slumber party, most of them screaming at the top of their lungs'
I read a lot of Umbrella Academy fanfiction, like a butt-tonne.
So yes, this week's fic rec is once again an Umbrella Academy fic.
It's Thursday, we all need a break from doom-scrolling (or, at least I do!) so let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
(Warning: scratch the surface of Disney films, and there can be some very dark things underneath, so this post discusses: forced marriage, including to underage girls; murder; the fur industry; genocide.
There may also be SPOILERS for Disney films.)
Think of a Disney villain - there are a few great ones, right?
And I'm sure that we all have our faves, our least faves, our problematic faves.
And a Disney villain, at least traditionally in their animated movies, is as cut-and-dry good-vs-evil as you can get.
But I've noticed something lately - the motivations of Disney's female villains are a lot different to the male ones.
Quick Note: Yes, I'm using male and female as gendered terms synonymous with men and women, on account of social and practical interchangeability.
'Across the top of the control panel, the AI’s official designation read: Security and Hazard Emergency Response LOCK (S.H.E.R.LOCK)'
You know I love originality in fanfiction dearest nerdlets.
And I have some more of it for you this week!
