celestial surveillance + some garden of eden parallels

For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open. - Luke 8:17 (NIV)

Over and over, we see how the bookshop feels safe/private while simultaneously being sort of a fishbowl, leaving its inhabitants quite exposed to onlookers. *garden of eden vibes*

Similarly, Aziraphale and Crowley tried to conduct a class-A surreptitious 6000+ year agreement/slowburn romance and yet their 25 Lazarii relationship is fairly obvious to others.

Reminiscent of how Crowley is painfully aware that nothing is certain and time is horribly finite, Aziraphale lives with the knowledge that anything he does or says can be used against him—or much worse, used against Crowley or others our little guardian cares about. Unlike his emotional support demon, however, Aziraphale was afraid Before the Beginning, before The Fall.

While Upstairs aren't the only ones watching, they have the potential to be the most dangerous threat (emphasis on potential bc they have to take an interest and also maybe stumble into important clues): The heavenly office overlooks the entire world. Where Hell had to send Furfur to the theatre with a camera, Heaven's got Earth Observation Files they can pull up to see what someone was doing at any point in history—not even St. James Park can keep you anonymous in the face of thirty-seven classes of scriveners/recording angels!

Aziraphale may tend to underestimate danger in general because of his misplaced hope that Heaven is truly Good, but in the same way that he can be both clever and stupid, I think he trusts Heaven and fears it at the same time. Why else would he be so worried about breaking their rules even when he knows they are wrong?

Of course, Aziraphale is also a courageous little bastard with a deity-defying protective streak! Despite Heaven's indoctrination, we see him navigating all sorts of grey area as he learns to 'blur the edges'. But he knows it isn’t safe to do that openly. He keeps this more human side hidden and tries not to think too hard about why doing good is wrong in heavens eyes. (lol other people's aziraphale metas are my main food group rn)

At the end of S2, we see him leave A.Z. Garden & Co. after tasting the forbidden fruit large oat milk latte, armed with his naïve/misguided 'knowledge of Good and Evil'. (and perhaps he knows he can't 'let the sun can’t go down' on him in Soho lest the the Metatron mete out death instead of coffees?) When Adam and Eve left Eden, Aziraphale and Crowley observed from above. When the angel and demon leave their own garden, we get the sense that they are also being watched.

(also idk if this is anything but Adam facing off against the lion while Eve looks on in the bg seemed a bit like Crowley watching Aziraphale walk into danger w the Metatron. could be a good sign since the lion gets turned into salami)

There are hints at the end of S2 that the watching is getting a little a spicier (at least I think they are hints haha): the bookshop windows are still broken during the last part of E6, further decreasing privacy; the zombies used binoculars to watch A&C from the Dirty Donkey under cover of darkness in 1941 but the Metatron just looks across the road in the light of day. And then there's the whole 'hefty jigger of almond syrup'.

My favourite Good Omens moments

I just finished it and it was heartbreaking so here

The car being yellow

Crowley not selling any of Aziraphales books

Crowley praising Aziraphale when he performs magic

Aziraphale calling it our car

Crowley mentions how Aziraphale loves trains

How Aziraphale tells Nina that of course he has a plan but Crowley loves to rescue him

“You like waiting inside”

The whole crying inside the bookstore during the fire, not very platonic to me

“Come up with something or I’ll never talk to you again” proceeds to save earth

Crowley trying to fix Aziraphales magic trick and then panic reading the pamphlet

Aziraphale giving Crowley the holy water because he doesn’t want him to be in danger

Crowley saving the books

“But rescuing me makes him so happy “ I’m not over it, there it is here twice

Their dancing

[skullfragments]

"I told you I would always come for you. Why didn't you wait for me?" "Well, you were dead." "Death cannot stop true love. All it can do is delay it for a while." "I will doubt again." "There will never be a need."

True love! a bit ineffable, wouldn't you say?

I think that Good Omens is similar to The Princess Bride in that both are full of humor and maybe don't take themselves too seriously, but are also full of love <3

Happy Valentine's Day! Have a little silliness and a smooch!

more princess omens

watching good omens with my coworker and we started season 2, i was talking about aziraphale and crowley but trying not to spoil anything so i just ended up sobbing and she says, "don't worry, i already know they kiss" and that's worse

[dragon-of-the-night]

Me at Neil Gaiman after watching the end of Good Omens S02.

Merry Christmas

I was lazy and didn't draw them properly but who cares, it's the silly angel ever and his demon man (they're not even men shshshsh)

I love Aziraphale, he's my oxygen. Hope everyone has a good holiday season <3

[carnivalwizard]

the REAL crime of good omens season 2: making ineffable bureaucracy canon so we have to consistently spell "bureaucracy" correctly

[anthonycrowley]

i think it’s also hilarious that i decided to pick up the show again because of this. ‘i’ll finish the terror once they find the bodies lmao’ <- me apparently

[fancyingfinefabrics]

thinking about watching good omens for the first time! i know there’s a big crossover between ofmd fans and good omens fans so might as well right?

i don’t know anything about it other than what i’ve seen on tumblr like it’s about angels and david tennant is a daddy?
