I have basically zero knowledge of X-Men, but this was a really awesome AU. Loved the explanation of why Crowley calls Aziraphale angel. :)

I actually don't know that much about X-Men either save that they're mutants, but I'm glad it's still awesome!

Also that bit of explanation came in at the last moment but it's good that it did haha.

Thank you for reading!

Oooh. Nice move Aziraphale, glassing Hastur! Interesting fusion.

That was one of the scenes I wanted to write from the very start and which made it into the final draft so yes :D

Thanks for commenting!

This works really well. You developed the relationship between them convincingly through the five segments, and Crowley gets to keep his eyes and his sunglasses :-)

It's good that no one found the shifts in relationship too jarring, I was slightly worried about that. Thanks for the feedback :D

...holy ffff, I found the diamond in this year's fic pile *_*

I so rarely enjoy AUs/fusions of GO with other popular base-canons, but you nailed this like whoa. From Aziraphale's ability to Crowley's decided lack thereof to the sheer weight of the nickname in this context, I'm just blown away. And you did it in such spare, elegant, economical prose. This is going on my favorites list <3

Thank you! I am extremely flattered by that, since um, there are awesome fics in this year's line-up and this is my first fic for GO ever. So, um, thank you ( ... )

First off, a million apologies for the insanely late reply!! I've been on the road with no computer for like 3 weeks...and mobile devices have been terrible for this. >.<

OMG I'm soo soo thrilled! Thank you for such an amazing gift!! I love the way you incorporated the universes. Its soo clever and fun to read! I really feel like you nailed the Az/Crowley dynamic, everything about it is delightful. I'm gonna go lay in a corner and have FEELS about Az snuggling Crowley to keep him warm! *-*

Thank you ever so much for a wonderful gift!
