The plot of s3 revealed??

[averagethecrematorfan]

SEASON 3 IS CONFIRMED I AM SOBBING OH MY GOD

[averagethecrematorfan]

This may have just healed all my ofmd-go-loki trauma

[averagethecrematorfan]

This may have just healed all my Good Omens, ofmd, Loki trauma, all at once.

[averagethecrematorfan]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN PEOPLE ARE SAYING THAT S3 IS NOT GONNA HAPPEN BECAUSE OF MICHAEL UNFOLLOWING NEIL AND MANY PEOPLE LEAVING FROM THE SHOW?

I can't to this today

[averagethecrematorfan]

I'm wheezing

Ed, babygirl, are you alright?

[averagethecrematorfan]

Ed, babygirl, are you alright?

[averagethecrematorfan]

Ed is a black cat

No??? Have you seen this guy?? I KNOW A BLACK PUPPY WHEN I SEE ONE

Izzy’s ending makes sense!!

And I’m tired of people pretending it doesn’t. After all he’s been through, he deserves peace and that's what he got. Peace. It makes sense for Ed’s storyline too. Izzy was the last thing that tied him to Blackbeard, a constant reminder of who he was (that must’ve been a huge burden for Izzy because he knew that), and by letting Izzy go, he is finally able to let go of Blackbeard for good. I do however think that the whole thing happened so fast and I would’ve preferred if he died at the end of s3 instead. Just to milk the whole character development and also because it would’ve hit much harder.

Ep8 was an emotional rollercoaster

and to get through that, I’m sharing my accidental screenshots I took while watching the fight scene that was too funny not to share

“We won't probably even get a second kiss”

Everyone, this is Neil Gaiman we’re talking about. Neil made his character have hot steamy gay intercourse with a god he's just met. Neil loves to make the fandom go feral and he's not afraid to use any means to do so. And let's be honest, I don't think he would miss an opportunity to make David and Michael violently make out. I think we're fine.

I could write whole essays about this moment but I think one sentence represents it all.

I’ve never seen someone look more in love.

[averagethecrematorfan]

I need y'all to understand how fucking important it is that their lovemaking song was La Vie En Rose.

Those translated covers you hear on TikTok take their lyrics from a Louis Armstrong cover of the original French version sung by Edith Piaf. The English lyrics are beautiful but there are some things lost in translation, which is why I love that they had Izzy sing the original French version while Stede and Ed are making love.

Edith Piaf's version of the song is all about the intensity of love and finding love after a trying time. Her vocals are incredible and bleed all the different emotions she feels while singing. Izzy starts with the English translation of the song, which goes:

But a closer translation to the original French would be:

"Quand il me prend dans ses bras; When he takes me into his arms/ Il me parle l'a tout bas; He holds me so softly/ Je vois la vie en rose; And I see life through rose-colored glasses."

Obviously this is fine and dandy, but it's the translation of the original French lyrics used later in the episode that really get me. Izzy sings this:

Which translates to this:

"He speaks words of love to me/ They are every day words/ And they do something to me.

"He has entered into my heart/ A bit of happiness/ That I know the cause of.

"It's only him for me/ And me for him, for life/ He told me, he swore to me, for life."

It's that last verse that the English version just wouldn't be able to capture. The translated version of that verse is about angels and love songs and mentions nothing of a vow to love one another for life.

That's what's so special to me about the French version of the song being used in that moment. Edith Piaf sings as a person who has lived through so much pain and suffering (which she definitely did as a French woman living through World War II) and finally finds comfort and peace in the arms of her beloved.

That is ultimately what Ed and Stede are for one another. Safe harbors, calm waters, peaceful days and nights in each other's presence. They bicker and argue and hurt one another, but they always come back together so easily. Stede was hurt and needed reassurance, needed to prove to himself that he wasn't a whim, needed to feel the security of Ed in his arms. And perhaps they shouldn't have gone all the way that night, but they're both impulsive and obsessed with each other and they needed something.

It's that song that lets me know they're gonna be okay. They're intense and impulsive but they compliment each other. They fit together perfectly, and they find comfort in one another no matter what's happened to them in the past. They need their harbors, their anchors, each other. They'd never leave each other behind. They make each other's lives la vie en rose.

out of the many scenes in Good Omens s2 THIS one has to be my favourite.

Seconds before leaving with the Metatron, we get this beautiful shot of Aziraphale (Michael Sheen, your acting is, like always, spectacular). One second, we see him mourning. His eyes are glossy, big, sparkly, almost cartoonish, and full of hope that Crowley (or perhaps him) will change his mind. And then vavoom! His gaze shifts. His eyes suddenly get smaller, the sparkle disappears, and he looks like someone sucked the life out of him. It’s where he ultimately decides that he is going back to heaven. Right after he puts on a fake smile. The final sign is that he decided to hide his emotions, and ignore what his heart wants to serve the “bigger good”. While there is no doubt that a lot of what I’m talking about comes simply from the way the scene was shot, especially the lighting, I can’t help but try to read between the lines even though there may be nothing to read.

something about two grown men acting like awkward teenagers about to kiss

[averagethecrematorfan]

I love the fact that Crowley follows etiquette.

Like yeah he may be a foul demon but you bet he’ll unbutton his suit while sitting down‼️ He’s classy after all
