Oh, this is GRAND! You have five excellent footnotes, so I have five points to make:

1) Your Aziraphale is utterly perfect. He's all sorts of happy and joyous and everything that Christmas should be, and the bit about the biscuits? Yes, loving that, yes. <3

2) Crowley's houseplants have the most appropriate personalities! I really enjoyed the line about the African violets.

3) DEATH! Lovely cameo there!

4) “I did no such thing,” Aziraphale insisted, despite the blush that crept onto his cheeks. After a moment, the angel sighed. “All right, fine. You caught me. But I’m an angel, Crowley. I’m supposed to inspire.”

It may be a little unfair that Aziraphale makes this list twice, but this really did make me smile. :)

5) The ending! That's pretty much the best kiss ever written, IMHO. It's such a sensory experience as you've described it, and it's so vivid and lovely and comfortable-- it fits just right!

and also,
5.1) You do know that you've set an excellent tone for this new year, right, Secret Author? Thank you SO MUCH!

YAY! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Before this I'd only written a couple GO drabbles. This is my first full length Go fic, and I admit, I was fretting a bit.

And I really do enjoy writing about kisses, so I'm glad that part was good for you XD (And what's a Christmas fic without Death in a Santa Hat? ^^)

Thank you so much for the wonderful prompts (really, jealous!Crowley and beaming!Aziraphale are so much fun to write!) and, of course, the lovely comments! I had a lot of fun writing this fic for you, and I'm thrilled you liked it so much! =)

Did you ever read Pratchett's Hogfather? I thought you were referencing that. Imagine Death in a red hat and robe, with a cushion stuffed up his front, going HO HO HO.

This was wonderful! I enjoyed it, though admittedly I was vaguely jealous of David as well, on Crowley's behalf.

YES! I love Hogfather (hell, anything Discworld is awesome!). 'Twas my nod to Death, in all the worlds he inhabits ;)

Hee, thanks so much for reading, I'm glad you liked it!

I love it too! Death is so awesome! I finally found Mort recently and I loved it.

Thanks for writing it! ;)

Mort is another good one! =) When I first started reading Discworld I was seeking out any that focused on Death, I just love how Pratchett writes him!

Me too! I look for things about Death and the Lancre witches, but at first, mainly Death. XP
