''Somewhere else, the happy ending was different.''
'''''[http://www.populli.net/thewritegirls/afrai/s0.html The Sacred and the Profane]''''' by Afrai is a retelling of ''[[Good Omens]]'' [[Canon]] with Aziraphale as the one who fell instead of Crowley. Don't worry, they're still instantly recognizable to anyone who's read the original book: Zirah is still a [[Affably Evil|kindly]], [[Stepford Smiler|smiling]] [[Cute and Psycho|bookseller]], and Caphriel is still a sunglasses-wearing [[Deadpan Snarker]] [[The Fettered|dedicated to his job]]. They've just been translated through a [[Deconstruction|dented mirror]]. The plot, while rather condensed, is largely faithful to the events of the book, but with a [[Dark Fic|couple of necessary tweaks]] to match [[Cute and Psycho|Zirah]] and [[Knight in Sour Armor|Caphriel]]'s characters.
Maybe you ''should'' worry. And keep a box of tissues by your side while reading.

* [[Trauma Conga Line]]
* [[Truth in Television]]: Caphriel's reasoning behind wearing his sunglasses all the time is terribly similar to that of mild agoraphobes or people with social anxiety.

** Making his self diagnosis with {{spoiler|clinical (suicidal) depression}} all the more awful.
* [[The Unfettered]]: Zirah {{spoiler|there's nothing you can do to him that would be worse than what has already happened and there's no [[Moral Event Horizon]] he won't cross.}}
