Most people think that when we die, we go stand in a line or at a gate waiting for judgement to be passed on us, ultimately condemning us to eternal torture or to eternal bliss. Thane Atos thought the same thing until he "died". What he seen wasn't a line of people waiting to be judged or pearly gates or even a fiery sea, it was an empty room with a table in the middle. On the table was a note that would change how he saw himself forever.

The Sixth Sense
There is theory, that when a person experiences a near-death, he or she comes by to a coma, going in an alternate universe where all souls dwell to await their final judgement. The "Borderline" as they call it. In here, they experience "bliss", the perfect description of happiness. That's what they said that you would feel right before you die. But if you're lucky enough, you get to experience it and wake up the next to live to tell them the truth about the afterlife.Complete
The Followings of a Red Beret
Are we all connected? Are destinies intertwined thickly in a giant knot we call life? Perhaps. Lets unravel one end of the string of fate and see where it leads us. For an eternal being like Death there can't be anything surprising: he's seen all their tricks. The nature of a human being won't change for a hundred years. Unchanging, but maybe, maybe interesting.Complete
Anesthesia
Previously known as 'Ours will die with us' and 'Less' anes-the-sia: Loss of feeling in all or a part of a body with or without loss of consciousness. So maybe a person is suffering from permanent anesthesia, then that person wouldn't be able to feel anything forever. That was what Buzz always thought while he was unwillingly battling with life and death. In life, he didn't find anything worth living for much. So what was left was dying which was medically uncertain as it was just a tumor and no one knew if his death warrant was signed. But he was willing to sign his own death warrant. Then there in his life comes a series of anonymous texts trying to make him understand what a jerk he was being along with the meaning of life, and his encounter with a strange ballet girl with a bandage on her ankle who was, in some ways, just like him.

The New Life in the Afterlife
Death, ever wonder what it feels like? What it possibly could feel if you felt the concept of nothing around you with no say in the situation...? I did, once. Someone had it worse though.
The B in Bentley (Good Omens)
"Since the Apocalypse had been avoided, the bond between the angel and the demon had grown closer. For the first time in 6000 years Aziraphale...felt something for Crowley. He didn't know what the strange feeling was when the ginger-haired demon was around, but - he was an angel, for Gods Sake. His kind used to be caring and loving, whatever or whenever." Aziraphale begins to question the Great Plan and its purpose on love. According to this, a demon and an angel aren't made for each other. When Crowley finally shows up at his bookshop and tries to confess his feelings for the angel, he breaks up. Leaving an angry demon and a very sad angel. Not knowing what they gonna do. Little do both of them know that these weren't exactly the commands from God herself...Complete
Veneration
Their kiss continued, brutal and hot. Aziraphale suddenly remembered how his arms worked circled them around the demon's waist pulling him closer. Crowley broke off the kiss with a sharp inhale and moved his head to rest against the angel's. "Tell me to leave, angel." Raw need vibrated through the demon's voice. He pressed his forehead against Aziraphale's. His hands trembled as they cradled the angel's face. He took another ragged breath. "You don't want to do this! You don't want this from me!" Now it was Aziraphale's turn to take a inhale deeply. Their mouths were so close that their breath mingled. He could feel heat from the demon, from their pressed foreheads, down his chest, to his groin. He drained away the minor alcohol in his system and let cold, hard clarity wash over him. This was...dangerous. This was wild and thoughtless. Hedonistic. This should stop. That would be for the best. Safe. Sane. Responsible. "No" Aziraphale's voice ghosted the word. Then bolder, louder, steadier "Stay, please. I want this." He clasped his hands against the demon's and tipped his head back to meet Crowley's eyes. "I want you."Complete
Crawling back to you (Aziracrow's version)
Crowley and Aziraphale part ways after Crowley finally admits his feelings for the angel. But it would be naive to think the two beings could simply stay out of each other's way, when it's so obvious (and canon!) that they like each other. Some even suggest they're in love. - - - a silly little fix-it-story as a fast way to cope with the ending to the second season. originally uploaded in august 2023, entire rewrite in late 2025 / early 2026. not my cover art.Complete
Roses X Guns
As the world begins to fall apart, a man recollects on why he could never find happiness. However, he is not alone, and he wouldn't be constantly reminded of this if his cyborg hadn't brought home a strange girl one day. Now they are the jury that will determine the fate of those that were guided to their home to confess their crimes. Some had committed the most horrific acts known to man, while others simply made one mistake that ruined their lives. Will they be given salvation, or death by execution?
