Good omens library AU
Dec. 19th, 2018 12:41 amI was trying to figure this out at work and I've got something I think, lmk what you think.
So Aziraphale is a rather grumpy librarian. He's very knowledgable about books on all subjects and cataloging and he will doggedly pursue anything a patron asks for that's not in their collection. But he's also not a big fan of patrons in general, and he gets very protective about the collection. He's got Way Too Many books checked out at any given time, he absolutely abuses the staff privilege of not being charged fines for overdue items, and there may or may not be a few volumes that just sort of... live with him now. He always tells himself he'll bring them back but, well, he just needs to reread this one passage, and he rather likes this specific copy, and, well...
Crowley is the patron who puts hundreds of CDs on hold at once, and comes in to pick them up with a cheerful brusqueness. Workers dread every time he brings a bag of CDs back, even though they're meticulously neat. Rumors abound as to what he's doing with them... burning them to make an extensive music collection? He just likes to watch circ workers suffer? What if every album he listens to sounds like Queen and he's trying to break the curse?
