Newt is a trained assassin recruited since he was a child, raised to be a cold-hearted killer.

UPDATE (5 Oct): Another fic on this prompt is now up! Please give some love to Wis who wrote this wonderful multichapter fic! ❤ Can’t wait to see how both stories pan out :)
Of brick and of bone, Of petal and thorn, My love is my harbour, my hearth and my home
Newt and Thomas move into a beautiful old house with the intent of fixing it up and flipping it back onto the market. They’re partners in the business of flipping houses and moving on to the next, but there’s something about this house that makes them think they can stay.
I was paired up with the amazing jo-the-unknowable/Joanna at the The Maze Runner Reverse Big Bang, and seriously, I couldn’t have been luckier! Joanna asked for this: Thomas the demon and Newt the angel are hereditary enemies… or at least, that’s what they tell their superiors in hell and heaven, respectively. The reality is a bit more complicated. When the end of the world is nigh and someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist, an angel and a demon will have to work together to prevent the End of Everything, and decide where their loyalties truly lie. AKA the Good Omens AU nobody (except me) wanted.
I wanted to watch Good Omes for weeks now, but somehow hadn’t been able to find the time nor energy to do so, and when I saw this prompt I so hoped that I would be able to write it and yeaaaaaaaah I was lucky! Thanks so much for this! (And now I also finally watched Good Omens!) The playlist at the end is also from Joanna.
I really hope you like this story <3 And thanks to Lucy for the beta read!
He could clearly remember when all of this had begun. It had all started with them talking (if you ignored all the times he watched the Angel from his tree and was just taken in by his stance, the way he moved, everything actually…), exchanging words, words that enabled him to see more than just this handsome and dashing shell. No, in that moment he truly could see the beauty within, and it almost blinded him.He had sometimes thought about offering an apple to him, but it had been far more tempting to lure the humans in to committing this sin. Ah, it had been a delicious moment. True, he had not suspected God to react quite that offended, but well…Important, however, weren’t the humans, but another being entirely: Newt.

tears moistened newt’s eyes, and thomas was sure that even within the dark chamber of memories that were locked away, out of his reach, he’d never seen someone look so sad.
