Looking at the revelation of Yuletide names has been fun and now I can say thank you to thehunter for my Eroica story, the Gift.

Big thank yous to gehayi and to daegaer for their betas of my Good Omens story Naked and Unashamed, Crowley/Aziraphale, R.

I must be feeling better- I'm hungry and I'm almost motivated enough to have a wash and get dressed. Almost. Lying on the settee watching DVDs is still, on balance, the more attractive option though.

Sorry to hear you're feeling crappy. Hope it passes soon.

Thank you! It all seems to be clearing up, although doing anything that involves any movement seems out of the question. My duvet is my friend.

Sorry you've had such a lousy start to the New Year, but glad you're picking up.

I just read Naked & Unashamed. It's lovely, Louise. Loved them ticking off the Deadly's and the fifteen fingers, and was wowed by the seduction. Such a blend of innocence and temptation. Crowley's idea that they're both somewhere within the moral spectrum is proved nicely. He may have his ulterior motives and his lust, but there's comfort and affection (and love, perhaps, but don't tell him I said so, shhh) to balance it. His own semi-innocence was sweet in its own way, as much as Aziraphale's discoveries of completely new sensations.

I hope they continued their quest for knowledge together *g*.

Ooh, what lovely feedback- thank you!

I'm really glad the seduction worked for you. I was keen to get across the idea that they didn't really know what they were doing, as far as sex was concerned, or that Aziraphale didn't even really have the words to describe what he was feeling. I'm also glad that Crowley's need for affection and comfort was clear. The story is slightly ambiguous as to his motivations, but it's important that Aziraphale isn't the only one being seduced.

...I think you need to check your timestamps. According to the top of the post you're already in December.

Oops! Thanks for pointing that out. Would've taken me ages to notice on my own.
