Summary
"And someday we'll be coming here with your grandchildren, Prongs," Remus said, "and they'll all run round the field and you'll try to tell them stories about the old days and they'll be properly horrified to think their doddering elders ever even did young people things."
"Like this, you mean?" James asked and leaned over to give Lily a smacking kiss on the lips.
"Ewww!" Sirius moaned. "My eyes, Prongs! My eyes!"
"Or it will just be Sirius you horrify," Remus murmured, suppressing a smirk as Sirius tackled James.

Summary
A collection of vignettes of Elio and Oliver's coming together after the events of the novel. Adheres to the novel's timeline but vignettes are posted in non-chronological order. Stories will alternate between Oliver and Elio's POV.
I try to adhere to the details as presented in the novel but I may, from time to time, include some reference from the movie.
Inspired by comments on one of my first drabbles, No Peaches, in which commenters encouraged to keep writing. So here goes!

This Is Not A Regency Love Story (It's A Complete Nightmare) by LucyCrewe11
Fandoms: Good Omens (TV)
11 Dec 2020
Tags
Summary
Present Day: Newt and Anathema arrive at the bookshop with an unusual photograph from the Regency era. A photograph in which Aziraphale is clearly a woman. Crowley and Aziraphale attempt to explain the photograph's existence over several glasses of wine. The events of their (rather bizarre) tale, however, might not have unfolded exactly as Crowley remembers them...
Regency Era: Aziraphale, undercover for Heaven (though he can't recall exactly what he's meant to be doing), is pretending to be a young woman named Angelica. Unfortunately, Angelica has accidentally gotten herself betrothed to the relentless and completely infatuated Parson Pickersgill.
And the wedding's on Wednesday.
Still, everything could be fine, if only Gabriel shows up on time to relieve Aziraphale of his assignment before it's too late.
Otherwise, it might be left up to Crowley to save the day...

Bookmarker's Notes
Ekkreth the Trickster is a figure that reminds me of the Anansi and Brer Rabbit stories I grew up on. I see a lot of parallels in this series to the types of folklore and stories that are so important to those who have had slavery shape their families. Every story in this series is worth a read, but this one is one of my favorites.
