You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
RIGHT?!?

Okay, I don't have time to do a big dump of my GO fic recs, because the shit has hit my own personal fan in a big way today, but I'll throw this one out, because it is SCREAMINGLY funny, especially to anyone who's ever belonged to an online community: The Official Mr Fell Quarantine Thread.

You can't have a headcanon about a real person!
Oh, you sweet summer child.

I'm going to preface this with these two fics shouldn't work, and it was unbridled curiosity that prompted me to read the first one. But they're so great!
Such an Old-Fashioned Word and the sequel Less than Kind.
They're Good Omens / Hannibal crossovers. No murder hijinks, and you don't need to have seen Hannibal. They're oddly sweet.

I have a GO fic rec, but I feel like it needs some caveats. (Or maybe I feel defensive about loving it so much!) I'm really not a fan of fics where Aziraphale and Crowley are human, whether it's within the GO-verse or in an AU. And, in fact, I don't care for AUs in general. So, by those standards, I should never have liked this fic, but someone whose opinion I trust recommended it, and I reluctantly checked it out, and I am head over goddamn heels for it.
Slow Show. It's an AU where Aziraphale and Crowley are actors on the same TV show. (Absolutely *not* RPF, to be clear. Definitely an AU of the characters.)
It's not complete, if that matters to people (I know some folks don't like reading WIPs). There are 10 of 12 chapters up. I love it ridiculously.
