Oh, and...

I've been thinking that if I could ask Gneil and/or PTerry one Good Omens-related question, it would actually have nothing to do with the theology of the changed world or a second apocalypse or the mysteries of the Horsepersons or anything related to whether or not Aziraphale and Crowley are So Doing It (tm). Those are all things for fandom to play with, which it does quite nicely.

It would be a fairly straightforward question.

Who was Adam's mother?



If there's any fic or meta on this subject anywhere, please point me!

I've wondered about this too. Adam's player over at Neutral Omens and I kicked around the possibility that his mother might have been specially bred by Lucifer for the purpose, possibly from a line descended from Nephilim, so that the kid would be literally part angel, part demon, part human. I don't think there's any fic out there so far that directly addresses the question.

She just brought that idea up over at LT...I think that's really interesting.

I'm hoping to morph this into a fic challenge for 6/6/06....:D

Nephilim seems like a really awesome idea. I think it makes me feel better to assume that Hastur and Ligur brought Adam up from Hell and didn't take him from some mortal woman's womb on Earth, as I'm sure those two would have been very clumsy about it if they had to accomplish the latter.
