louiseluxI don't know why, but being off work sick is making me feel all Christmassy. Something has gone horribly askew in my brain.
Talking of which, today would be good day to plot out my Nano novel properly. At the moment the basic plot is, in a rather messy way,
For some reason Crowley has to go to another planet- filling in for another demon? Or, a recon mission to check how far the humans have got in thier colonisation of other planets. Now humans have discovered faster than light travel, they've nipped out the back door and are all over the universe. Metatron and Satan pissed off because they can't keep track anymore, as humans move too fast these days.
Somebody, help! How do I explain the existence of the universe, if, in GO world, the Bible is all true? God created the earth. The he created this enormous bloody place with lots of other planets and races too, because he didn't have enough to do? The logistics are a nightmare, etc, etc.
On the way Crowely gets lost down a wormhole. Adventures ensue- alternate realities. Demon is angel.
Back on earth Azirphale is getting worried. Things just aren't the same without Crowley. And, humans are really messing things up badly, and are on the brink of destroying the planet.
Aziraphale leaves earth to bring Crowley back. Also gets lost down wormhole. Adventures ensue. They both learn various things from their adventure, things that form crux of their understandng of humans, god, themselves and their purpose. But now sure exactly what yet. Maybe they don't understand anything better except each other. If it's going to be slashy this is where it will mainly be.
They find each other eventually, and get back to earth, but are too late to save the it from being destroyed by crazy humans. There is ineffability and change, but humans have colonised other planets. C and A are sent by god on a long misson, to seek out new worlds, new civilisations, to boldy go... (to contact all the races of man that have been lost) well, not quite sure about the details. It depends on the explanation of why the universe exists in the first place.
Suggestions and rude comments will be welcomed.

Date: 2003-10-28 06:52 am (UTC)I like the idea of Adam creating the universe, and may use it, if that's okay? There's a similar idea in 'It's a Kind of Magic', by
I think God would welcome Adam's creations. In the spirit of his mysterious and circuitous ways, I can imagine that he'd leave it up to angels and demons to sort it all out, just to see if they can, and to see if they do the right thing. That fits in with what I was thinking already, about angelic and demonic missions to other planets or galaxies.
I don't think I'll go into too much detail about why the universe exists, because the fic will be from A & C's POV, and they don't remember the almost-apocalypse, or Adam. Perhaps, like you suggested, they'll think it's the result of the creator getting stuck in 'creating' mode and wanting to make more work for everybody.

Of course! I don't know whether to make an lj for it or not yet. Part of me wants to and part of me is a bit concerned about scaring people with the horrors of the first draft!
