The Dragon's Scheme by The_Bentley Word Count: 42,379 words Fandom: Good Omens Rating: E Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Azriaphale/Crowley Summary: Crowley isn't your average dragon. He prefers a more civilised life of drinking wine, collecting art and gardening. Also, he decided he would rather have a friend than spend a lonely existence terrorising faerie villages like dragons are supposed to do. Desperate for a companion, he hatches a surprisingly successful plan to get one. But the relationship blossoming between him and his new friend, the faerie Aziraphale, has attracted unwanted attention. Gabriel, a travelling merchant who seeks the elevated status of a hero, is determined to "rescue" Aziraphale from Crowley's "clutches". And Crowley's clan, tired of his antics, would prefer to evict him from his home in favour of a more compliant dragon. Crowley's clever little plan to get himself a friend might not be the only scheming going on. Gabriel's interests just might converge with the dragon clan's. That could spell trouble for the dragon and his faerie partner. Reccer's Note: This is a nice fairy tale-ish story about Crowley who is a shapeshifting dragon who desperately wants a friend, and who gets one in fae Aziraphale. But of course they can't be left alone in their happiness, enter Gabriel, Ligur and Hastur who want to destroy what they have. I really enjoyed this one, it gives you those fairy tale vibes, but it does contain quite a bit of angst. I also liked the author's descriptions of their cave home and surrounding gardens.
