Title: Anything But Ordinary

Pairing: Aziraphale/Crowley
Rating: R
This story is a remix of
daegaer's "Ordinary People" which is linked to at the top of the page. While I do love
daegaer's work, Ordinary People is definitely not one of my favourites as a piece of Good Omens fanfic.As a piece of fiction in and of itself it's quite lovely, but I don't feel the characters have enough in common with the book to call it fanfic. Ezra, standing in for Aziraphale, has a very familiar feel to him but Tony could really be an OC.
The remix is fantastic, though. The characterisation is excellent and it's tied in neatly to the original work, with far more to give to readers and fans of Good Omens. Crowley's thought patterns are amusing, the lengths to which he goes to justify the relationship to himself, and Aziraphale is also wonderfully characterised.
What sex there is is well written, and the build-up is long enough to make it genuinely affecting when things do start to happen.
All in all, infallibly cheering. Really great.
