Why this must be read:
Today is the Glorious 25th of May, so I'm reccing a crossover, although it's about the wrong Discworld holiday. GO is the brainchild of two prolific writers, and in the fandom, other works by Terry Pratchett or Neil Gaiman are often considered to be sort of "cousin" or "sibling" fandoms, and crossovers are common.
What's uncommon is really catching the particular and specific feel of both canons at once, and this story is really more a Discworld story than a GO one, but the addition of a sexually-frustrated Aziraphale and Crowley to the mix produces something alchemically magical. Dreya is one of the funniest writers in the fandom, and this is one of the stories that reeled me into the fandom the hardest (and I hadn't even read any Discworld when I first encountered it years ago). I still CANNOT. STOP. LAUGHING.
