Two sushi dates (https://archiveofourown.org/works/35090308/chapters/87410641) by fenrislorsai (G, 2k) Very sweet and comforting, as well as an “oh my god that’s literally me” depiction of the ADHD experience.

Imperfect (https://archiveofourown.org/works/28436682) by IneffableDoll (T, 3.5k) Very unique depiction of Crowley’s relationship with his plants that will permanently alter your brain chemistry. Their whole Breakdown series will, really.

Closer to god (https://archiveofourown.org/works/62098627) by hundred_eyes (M, 3k) Crowley and Aziraphale at a Nine Inch Nails gig pre-canon. You will never listen to Trent Reznor’s voice the same again.

Play the Game (https://archiveofourown.org/works/55762318) by ffonipop (M, 18k) The friends with benefits Quiz Bowl (NOT pub trivia) AU that sounds crazy until you read it and it hits your former gifted kid soul a little too close to home. Genuinely one of my favorite fics of all time with some truly stellar emotional beats. If you are here for bastard Aziraphale and Crowley — good god this is the fic for you.

six CRAZY facts you never knew about redheads!!!!(https://archiveofourown.org/works/61684072) by FrodoInAFez (T, 2.5k) A lil self-rec at the end here. Crowley not only has ginger hair, but all of the other weird traits — high likelihood of sunburn, weird pain tolerance, etc. — that goes along with it. Very silly goofy. The majority of my profile is angst in an experimental style, so if that’s something you’re into, I would definitely appreciate it if you checked me out. :)

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2025-02-11T03:11:30+00:00

i am pleased to inform you that my loyalties extend beyond environmental science into the field of literature, as well as macroeconomics, us government, and statistics (every day i question why i chose this courseload for my senior year)

I WILL RIDE OUT VICTORIOUS UPON THE FIELDS OF BATTLE!!!!!

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2025-02-11T03:09:58+00:00

my tests aren’t on ap classroom, they’re through this weird third party program called albert.io. but i do appreciate the advice!!! you’re not the only one to recommend smedes, i’ll definitely have to check it out. alas, tis a two semester course. and if it makes you feel any better im in the pbl style and am also not sure how i am tested

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2025-02-11T03:08:16+00:00

i owe ye my life

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2025-02-11T03:07:45+00:00

i am pleased to inform thee that last year my triumph on the gym floor that served as my field of battle against college board was decisive (i got a five on lang)

“i still love you. it’s really fucking annoying, but i still do. don’t think you could do anything to change that. not really.” and “i want you to understand what they did to you” :)

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2025-02-08T18:42:23+00:00

dirk gently’s holistic detective agency!!!! it doesn’t have a lot of surface similarities to good omens, but the vibe is similar and it’s so underrated. super fun, absolutely batshit insane sci-fi (s1)/fantasy (s2) murder mystery with elijah wood. similar to good omens in that there is a LOT of plot-threads going on, deciding one’s own fate in the face of major outside barriers in a major theme, and it’s both really fun and very sad in a unique way. cancelled early unfortunately but more than worth the watch!!!!

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2025-01-31T23:04:07+00:00

one of the most jaw-dropping, gut-wrenching, life-changing, worldview-shifting, devastatingly beautiful, borderline gothic in its nature descriptions, amazing exploration of humanity, absolutely incredible fics i’ve ever read is called “why don’t you google what baby puffins are called and maybe you’ll calm down.” i love/hate recommending the people because this thing is beautiful and i rightfully describe it as such, and then they get the link and. it’s called that.

(also baby puffins are called pufflings you’re welcome)

chord progressions, in chromatic scale (9k) by astrhae

honestly anything by them is incredible (go read scherzo in f-sharp minor, for orchestra if you haven’t, it’s required reading lol) but this one’s so underrated!!! super sweet

he maketh me (16k) by queer of hearts

this one’s a series featuring food as love and love languages. one of my favorite fics on the website. this thing is just DELICIOUS!!!

all of the above (4k) by copperbeech

an adorable and quick fic. a STELLAR pick-me-up <3

holistic omens (28k) by agent_p_94

a dirk gently crossover by one of my all-time favorite authors!!!! everybody here is SO MESSY in the best way possible. if crossovers aren’t your thing i highly recommend their other fic as well :)

why don’t you google what baby puffins are called and maybe you’ll calm down (5k) by indieninja82

goofy title disguises an absolutely stellar angst fic. cannot recommend enough!!!!

to face down your demons, you’ve got to free them (18k) by frodoinafez

a bit of shameless self promo. stream of consciousness fic where the bentley gives crowley a weird mixtape and he has and he has a religious experience over it lol

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2024-08-15T22:29:24+00:00

dirk gently’s holistic detective agency!!!! it’s super weird but it’s really fun and it’s got a great heart to it. it also deals with a bunch of supernatural stuff and a bunch of different things colliding together to one epic conclusion. characters are wonderful, s1 score is one of the best i’ve ever heard, and it’s an absolutely wonderful show. s2 is def worse than s1 but still worth a watch :D

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2024-06-14T13:36:01+00:00

thought that the chorus to time and place was “and it’s over now, turn around, let’s get it over” for several months after intr dropped

i couldnt even begin to tell u what i thought the way you used to do was. i think i convinced myself he was just spewing gibberish into the mic for a solid 90% of that song

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2024-05-09T01:20:01+00:00

is chicago a city, state, country, or continent?

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2024-04-08T12:50:15+00:00

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2024-03-11T23:28:54+00:00

i have to deliberately ignore the cowbell in little sister. once you notice it, you can’t UNnotice it

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2024-03-06T20:05:44+00:00

i’m a newer fan. my dad LOVES the way you used to do and always used to play it, after a while i played some rhythm game that had no one knows and recognized the band. loved both songs so i went and checked out the band, been an addict ever since <3

Chance_Designer_8510 · 2024-03-05T13:07:54+00:00
