Before Good Omens Season 2
I watched, read, and also listened to the BBC audio of Good Omens before season 2 was confirmed. Maybe in a year or two, they say yes. Before everything ever happened, I read fanfiction for fun in my spare time and chose what had an intriguing plot. Well, it’s mainly related to shipping. Relationship in a relationship.
I then came upon a fanfiction supposedly about Gabriel and Beelzebub, not sure what the title was called. It’s a slow romance between the two. I guess, from what I’m feeling the vibes.
The story begins with Gabriel losing his wings and ascending onto earth as a human because something goes wrong at his job or it’s related to the Anti-Christ. Armageddon didn’t go as planned. Can’t remember the reason why. Gabriel went straight to Aziraphale for help, and Crowley was also there, because he was confused and distressed. They soon learn that Gabriel has become human, and there are marks from what’s left of his wings on his back.
News of Gabriel being human caught a certain demon, Beelzebub, to go and tried to recruit him. Soil his soul and send him to hell. However, that didn’t sit well with the angels. They too tried to bring him back.
Gabriel now has this foreign feeling and wants nothing to do with the angels. He was traumatized by what they did. Aziraphale, to his best capability, tried explaining to the angels Gabriel reason as a human, but they wouldn’t understand. The wings cutting was too much, so he weather stay. At the same time, when the angels were meeting Gabriel, Beelzebub was there and also tried to win him. It’s almost a success, but he wouldn’t give in to a demon.
The rest of it was… I don’t know. Never read to completion, or it ever was in completion. The interaction between Aziraphale and Crowley with Gabriel was funny. One of them wants to help while the other doesn’t. They bought a hotel room for him to stay and checked on him occasionally, especially Aziraphale. Somewhere far enough, that’s what Crowley wants.
I’m recalling this fanfiction because of the trailer of season 2, Gabriel showing up in Aziraphale shop without his memory. Gabriel is now human or not, haven’t watched the first episode yet. That’s it until I went to check their bibliography on Wiki. I laughed in shock, seeing he was in a relationship with Beelzebub. They elope to a place Crowley suggested.
I’m unsure about Beelzebub and Gabriel’s relationship because the first episode was only out. There are rumors from articles and videos of the plot, but I’ll wait and see. There are also snippets of Crowley and Aziraphale that are raising their relationship this season. Don’t know how it’ll end, between heaven and hell. Romeo and Juliet style, with a twist?
