** The original AU fanfic must be recommended as well, as the author's depiction of what Aziraphale and Crowley would be like as humans makes for wonderfully interesting characters. This Troper would advise you to read the AU first and then the remix. Taken together, they're even better.

** Seconded, seconded, a million times seconded by {{Tropers/RainKrystal}}. This fic is one of ''the best'' [[GoodOmens GO]] fics I've read in a while, and even though I was never a fan of {{Supernatural}} before I read this, I am one now. The story is good, but what drives it up to the epic level is that mixed in with all the action and the awesome are these incredibly personal, character driven moments that make your chest ache when you realize you've been holding your breath. The characters make the plot go, and it goes where's it's going at a good pace, taking everyone invovled for an amazing ride along the way.

** This author has also written a number of other ''[[http://icarus-chained.livejournal.com/167824.html Good Omens/Supernatural fics]]'', some of which are tremendously funny, others heart-wrenching (and sometimes both at once), but all of which feature amazing characterisation and excellent writing.

* ''Comments'': The best Aziraphale/Crowley slasher I know of, this author also writes superb gen fic as well (usually relating to the Them, Adam and Pepper in particular; however, she's written a few amazing Shadwell/Tracy and Shadwell-centric pieces, too). She also occasionally crosses GO with other fandoms (notably ''Hot Fuzz'' and ''Sherlock''). Everyone is unbelievably in-character, but her Crowley-POV pieces shine brightest.

Cue people treating them like a couple, fawning over their pet-names for each other, and generally believing them to be life-partners. Eventually, they just decide that, really, they've technically been dating for six thousand years and might as well give it a go.

* ''Comments'': One of the best {{Supernatural}}/GoodOmens crossovers out there, in my opinion. There is a lot of shipping in this one, but the deep exploration of the relationships between Aziraphale and Crowley, Sam and Gabriel, and Den and Castiel is what really makes the fic work. The scenes in this fic range from [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome jaw-droppingly awesome]] to [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming downright]] [[TearJerker heartbreaking]], and the interaction between all the characters is vivid and believable. Deserves its own trope page, I think.

There are many many [[CrowningMomentsofFunny side splitting instances of hilarity]] and [[CrowningMomentsofAwesome jawdropping feats of daring]], far too many to name. I especially love the fact that Uriel gets attacked quite a bit by inanimate objects. This is one of the few fics that has its own TV Tropes page!
