#I am reading over these and Im fighting the urge to like.reword so many things. No one is allowed to know how bad it(the feelings) is.

I don't even have to write head cannons if the book is going to share things like this. IM silly MY thoughts about them are silly oh yeah?!?? Well the books states that the demon likes to take naps. ESPECIALLY after a big meal;. boy I sure. sure hope I don't mischaractrize him!!!!!! He doesn't need to sleep but he can if he wants and apparently also holds the power to sleep for an indefinite amount of time if he'd like. How sweet. I mean. He is a snake that;s what snakes do they eat their food and then go curl up somewhere or something but. I don't really know how much of him was written with the consideration of "Oh he does this because snake behavior" and is mostly just he does it because that is just simply him. I can't remember what century(I'm assuming also the 19th century again) but he says it himself in the show as well I'm pretty sure that he slept through most of it so. Whether you want to count the book or show as two separate things, it at least checks out that Crowley naps. Which. solidifies a thought that I like to have that I do not have the nerve to say it out loud because it would be. potentially sappy. At least a fluffy thought at that. And I fear I've said too much already.

Or like. What is. What isnthis

There is another thing that I want to say about this bit but I am saving it cause it gets mentioned down below* but. First of all I love Crowley using the "Game Over, Insert Coin?" expression and I also love Aziraphale not understanding it. Cause in the show there's kinda a whole thing it is very clear that Aziraphale is still attached to 1900s(or older) things like having a gramophone that he constantly uses or the only phones that he uses to receive/make calls with is things like rotary phones and whatnot. And that way he dresses and things and stuff he enjoys is like all a pre-techy internet boom. The one time he gets his hands on a phone that has a touch screen he is borrowing it from a stranger and he doesn't even use it properly, he uses some sort of 'magic'(I say magic like that because I'm not sure how to label their powers) to use it. Like he just tells the phone out loud to call his phone, the one that sits on his desk in his book shop. And this is like. An early looking 2006 phone, when they were just little square bricks. And even then I don't think any phone, regardless of how modern, would be able to call another cell phone without at some point having the number input into it, whether through clicking on the call button on a webpage or putting it in yourself! And it;s not like. that is a contact name and. it was a strangers phone how would it know and. and. what sort of power even is that that you can just announce to any cellular device "Hey, call the phone on my desk" and t works flawlessly. And this is a wall of text. And I am 98% sure he did that because he didn't know how to nagivate the phone in the first place. And he also does another little magic thingy and when he hands the phone back to the stranger it is fixed of all it's cracks and damage.

And I mean throughout the show we see Crowley Very MuchTM be with it and in the times. Aziraphale's outfit never strays too far from what it already is and his hairstyle doesn't really ever change at all either, but Crowley's outfits very much are where you could pinpoint almost immediately whatever era he is from cause of it, and he goes through a variety of hair lengths and styles and even at a point or two facial hair. And. I almost want to do some separate post on that even if it is literally just going to me being stupid. Even when we aren't getting flashbacked and the show is taking place in the current day, Crowley gets his haircut and a new style within like the first episode or two, and there really isn't that much of a time gap between the first two episodes if I remember correctly... And he does use a mobile phone and how one of his schemes was taking out all of the telephones for about 45 minutes in London during everyone's lunch break so. And if he is making Game Over and Insert Coin jokes then he is at least aware of arcade games in some capacity. I think their contrast is neat.

And. I did not anticipate that tangent getting that long but. This is one of the excerpts where I'm like. seeing the show before hand really alters how Im reading this because in the book it simply states that Aziraphale is sort of shrugging off Crowley's temptations but because I saw the series my brain is visualizing it more in the sense of his shrugging being a bit more unsure and his eyebrows are furrowed and has a bit of a complex unreadable expression because it is a moment where he is having to face his want to be a good angel and follow with Heaven's plan but he is struggling a bit with it because it is not a plan that he is wanting to go through with(and he and Crowley proceed to loophole a solution that ultimately saves Earth so it turns out okay.)

Sorry the first line here is really killing me because what a phrasing to go with. What a descriptor. And since I've seen the show I KNOW that he does eventually get his hands on it so I'm curious to see how that is going to play out.

*Aziraphale has it mentioned in the show that apperently he wears cologne and goes to a barber and. That is making me giggle so badly so much. Cause it like. it makes sense!!! he likes to be proper and. For some reason in the book adaptation it keeps mentioning that he has really nice manicured hands and. Why am I being subjected to having these such particular things cross my mind. Cause I understand keeping your nails trimmed or like lotion to keep your hands moisturized or soft but specifically manicured?? fine fine we get it you look nice and smell nice and you're cute and handsome I already knew this beforhand. Now I have to think about him going to a barber or getting his hands done. Long hard heavy in love sigh. 36 pages in and already his hand getting pointed out twice.

Which I find ultimately a bit funny because before I started the book I got a picture of Aziraphale's hand because I noticed he had been wearing a ring on his pinky finger that I didn't catch before and now all of this.
