Crowley CAN See Stars Still

Okay. So I have seen the theory that The Almighty took away Crowley’s ability to see the stars and nebulas he created by giving him snake eyes. As an owner of a snake, I can help you understand a bit better!

Crowley has bad vision during the day most likely. However, snakes are extremely sensitive to UV light. Explains Crowley’s sunglasses! His eyes could very easily get damaged and his vision would be even WORSE. (one of the many reasons why he only takes them off indoors)

Don’t Panic. HE STILL WOULD SEE THE STARS. At night? That’s a WHOLE DIFFERENT STORY. Snakes actually see very well at night because of being able to see infrared light. Also, they are able to differentiate heat. So, Crowley, if he does possess dichromatic vision or not, would be able to see his creations.

Infrared can pass through dense regions of gas and dust in space with less scattering and absorption. So, infrared can also reveal objects in the universe that cannot be seen in visible light. So he’d be able to see this:

HUMAN VISION (left) VS INFRARED VISION (right)

I hope this eases some of your panic about Crowley not being able to see stars he created with his snake eyes after The Fall! 😌💫

(How this became the MOST LIKED THING on my Tumblr account is beyond me.)

What’s in the Crowley’s name is this?

It is a truth universally acknowledged among the Good Omens fandom, that Crowley cannot see the stars.

I’m currently writing a fic chapter exploring Aziraphale’s love for Crowley’s eyes through the ages, and have been musing on options for a scene set around S1. I went to sleep last night thinking about the body swap and its potential for Aziraphale seeing things through Crowley’s eyes, those eyes that he loves so much.

And then I woke up, and cannot move on from the thought of the opposite… Crowley seeing the world through Aziraphale’s eyes… can he… can he see his stars? And now I’m sobbing on my sofa over breakfast because I think he must, mustn’t he?

Aziraphale will see how much the shine and sparkle is taken from the world as Crowley sees it through those snake eyes, and Crowley will look up through Aziraphale’s eyes and for the first time in millennia actually see the stars he made.

That ‘screaming, crying, throwing up’ phrase? Yeah, that… but I think I’ve found the emotional centre of my chapter. Just when I think these two have broken me enough…

Crowley’s eyes during the Confession weren’t full snakey because there wasn’t anything demonic or miraculous or tempting about that moment. He was saying (and meaning) the words in as human a way as possible.

just thinking about how the paint color for the yellow walls of aziraphale’s back room is called va vavoom

and how those walls are exactly the same color as crowley’s eyes

and how by the transitive property of… paint colors i guess? crowley’s eye color isn’t just yellow, it’s va vavoom yellow

[literallygayshit]

What is the law behind Crowley’s eyes? Sometimes he has whites and the snake eye is like a big iris. Then sometimes the whole eye is yellow. Thoughts on this or am I crazy?

More niggling bits: things I missed in Season 2 that were in Season 1.

The lovely outdoor locations, like the “Oxford” aerial shots, Jasmine Cottage, The Them outdoors. S1 had a much more expansive feel; S2 by comparison is almost claustrophobic. Also is Soho really constantly crawling with that many people? Probably just my enochlophobia kicking up.

The demons in Hell didn’t really display their alternate aspects, like Hastur’s toad. I was really looking forward to Furfur’s deer. Overall they seemed…lackluster.

But most of all—the way Crowley’s eyes blew up when he became emotional. Since he spent so much more time with his glasses off, maybe the CGI was just too expensive; but when he was speaking angrily to Gabriel/Jim & OMD that final scene/EVERY…they should’ve been fully gorgeously yellow.

I just realized Procreate keeps timelapses…

Here’s Crowley’s eyes for you guys 💛

Crowley Can See Stars (Part 2)

I am furthering the idea of Crowley’s vision and have a headcanon I am in LOVE WITH and that he is partially colorblind due to his snake eyes, and has deuteranopia. He has two cones in his eyes that are able to define primary colors. This would be unlike a human, who has three functioning cones in their eyes allowing them to see THREE. Red, Green, and Blue.

Crowley’s color-blindness would make his vision sensitive to the colors Blue and Yellow. He would possess an insensitivity to green light, therefore making it very difficult for Crowley to differentiate greens, reds, and yellows.

Example:

The top would be what Crowley would see as an Angel. The bottom would be what Crowley sees in the present with his snake eyes. Browns, yellows, and blues would be his spectrum when it comes to colors.

He would pretty much see Aziraphale in full color, as he dresses in beige clothes, has very light hair, and blue eyes. Crowley would in fact, see WHITE in the rainbow. I personally love how nebulae look in Crowley’s eyes as a snake. The stars are still visible to him, and even being colorblind, the stars are quite beautiful.

This couples in with my headcanon of Azi having star shaped pupils.

I would honestly LOVE to see fanart of Crowley with his color blindness. Him believing he has curly brown hair, and yellowish eyes which are around the same shade. Aziraphale having the prettiest periwinkle eyes to him and almost blinding white hair. (Pls credit me for the idea if you do decide to draw this❤️✨)

(I plan on writing a fanfic about this very topic so if any of you do write fanfiction and would be interested in this, let me know. Crowley would see the stars as a pretty periwinkle shade and believe that they are just slightly purple-ish. Which I think is precious.🐍💫)

Well, that went down like a lead balloon.

[boylikeanangel]

ohhhhhh I truly cannot get over the EVIL GENIUS of having crowley make a point of immediately taking his sunglasses off every time he's in the bookshop or alone with aziraphale this season, showing just how comfortable he's become showing his emotions and his vulnerability to aziraphale since season 1, opening himself up completely at every opportunity, showing us a side of him that's remained almost entirely hidden for millennia, only for him to silently and purposefully put his sunglasses back on immediately once aziraphale rejects his love confession. like, bravo gaiman, I saw what you did there and I'm never going to fucking recover from it. well done

[rainbowpopeworld]

It’s the vavoom 💖😇😈

-the bookshop-

crowley, thoughtful: why yellow?

aziraphale, pouring wine: hmm?

crowley, takes a glass: you could have made the bentley any colour. why yellow?

aziraphale, vague: oh I don't know. it has no real significance...

crowley, grimaces: thought white would've been more your thing

aziraphale, clears his throat: yes, well, yellow is more...it's warm. inviting. safe

crowley, stares at him: safe?

aziraphale, swallows: yes! it's a beautiful colour. highly underrated

crowley, shaking his head: yellow?

aziraphale, annoyed: are you doing this on purpose?

crowley, playing with his sunglasses: I don't know what you're talking about

aziraphale, sighs: yes, okay. I do feel safe when I look in your eyes. they're warm and kind. I...missed you

crowley, trying not to cry: very romantic of you, angel

aziraphale, holds his hand: I know

[fuckyeahgoodomens]

David Tennant: There are certain obstacles in playing Crowley. Obviously I'm wearing contact lenses most of the time. But, you know, that's a small price to pay for a character that is... is so delicious, really. And gets to wear these ludicrous outfits, that I would never dare to wear in real life, but clearly part of me would quite like to, I think. (video)
