Great tone, and an interesting addition to the mythology. Nice job!

Thanks! I liked pulling Becky's silliness in from the start, and couldn't help but borrow the Dramatis Personae listing from Good Omens. I'm really glad it worked for you!

This is a nice crossover. Crowley rocked as always, though I'm surprised Aziraphale didn't know how to defeat a golem right off the bat.

Thanks! And, to be honest, I considered that - that Aziraphale would probably know how to stop it, knowing everything as he does - but it made the plot resolve itself a little too quickly (and far under my needed word count!), so I had to leave him in the dark, for once.

This was awesome! I loved the golem and that you used the classical way of killing it. Nice original angel name for Aziraphale.

Thanks! I was thrilled when I found the emet-met meanings (linguistics/semantics are a lot of fun for me to poke at), and I'm glad I'm not the only one who liked it!

I'd love to take credit for "Izrafel", but that was inspired by a writer in the Good Omens fandom, who used a similar spelling to refer to Aziraphale before angels started Falling. I can't recall who, specifically, the writer was, or which fic(s) the name appeared in, but best to give as much credit as you can when it's due, right?
