"He knelt at the temple of the only thing he had ever believed in and offered himself in every way he could, feeling closer to divine grace than he had ever been before (...)" - Don't Fall Away From Me by PhoenixRose314

Sometimes a single sentence can evoke an image so vivid it becomes impossible to forget.

@phoen1xr0se You knew I would, didn't you? You did.

It makes me think of you and your fic @phoen1xr0se

And the fact that it is in the Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase & Fable that Terry read makes me cry like a baby.

I’m really grateful for the beautiful words that keep inspiring me and that have filled my mind and heart.

The absolute beauty that is Don’t fall away from me, painted a whole world that I wish I could get a glimpse of … which is probably why I simple cannot stop drawing about it, my brain craves more of that and since I’m no writer, then I can at least draw some bits to life.

Few fics have captured the spirit of the characters and the Good Omens original story , to the extent that DFAFM has. It reads like a genuine continuation and conclusion to the story and characters we all love so much.

As someone who suffers from pretty severe PTSD, I will forever appreciate the tact and understanding of trauma and mental health that this fic portraits.

I’m once again sharing my reactions as I read Don’t Fall Away From Me by @phoen1xr0se.

Spoilers below the cut, proceed with caution!!

I missed day 8 so I shall do that now as well!

I am so grateful to have met @nastasya--filippovna thanks to GO !!!! ❤️❤️

And also pheonixrose, she has completely change the way I view certain things in life and is always so lovely to me and honestly an inspiration. ❤️

And today, day 9, favourite GO fanfiction:

Wow @phoen1xr0se getting a double mention 😆

So the fic I am currently reading is an unbelievable wonderful and amazing and incredible and angst filled and exciting and thrilling and shows so much talent and majestic and shocking and making me want to rip my heart out and makes me wish I had 2 hearts like the doctor so they can both be broken but this writing and insanity causing and makes me vibrating with happiness and cry and smile and laugh and I'm running out of words and dkdbdbskabskdndkndjdjndn.

Yeah, I think you get the gist 😆

I’m still living in this story even if it’s over. It’s still slowly working its way through my body… my nervous system… my mind - conscious and unconscious.

So I have to do life admin stuff but I’m listening to this playlist without really seeing what songs are in it and what comes up next. Each song is perfect and the covers are new and fresh and lend a new lens through which to hear the words. The Smiths’ line ‘let me get what I want this time…’ is so achingly raw.

Then I’m hit with the Velvet Underground bebop classic ‘I’ll be your mirror’ as a cover as well so I can hear it anew and I’m dead. I’m died. I’m ded.

That song was introduced to me by another AO3 author (EdosianOrchids901) and her soul destroying works full of literal torture and desperate comfort. So there are layers for me with this song. It just hits hard.

I suppose it's a nice one this time... Fluffy, even. South Downs-type domestic happiness to brighten everyone's day.

(...Unless you've been reading @phoen1xr0se's DFAFM in which case I apologise. IYKYK.)

Me drawing it ✨Look at those cutie pies ✨
