friendship as ADHD neighbours is both going out in the street at midnight in pajamas under the summer rain without raincoats or umbrellas bc we couldn't see random fireworks going off in the city from our windows
but what if the "you don't dance" comment in s2ep6 was a direct callback to 1941 when everything was going so romantically and they were back in the bookshop and making eyes at each other and put on music and nightingale started playing and Crowley braver than ever in his life asked Aziraphale to dance, maybe even bowing down cheekily and offering an arm, and first Aziraphale takes it delightedly and gets up but then falters and gets scared and draws back and lies "I'm an angel, I don't dance" and then everything gets angsty and the sentence sticks in Crowley's mind like tar and feathers and he believes it, he believes him, angels don't dance, (angels don't consort with demons either, we can never truly be together, even if we both want it) and he takes it to heart and that's why Aziraphale asking him to dance is almost earthshattering in its overt symbolism, it's Aziraphale saying "I'm ready to dance with you now" but all Crowley can do is stand flabbergasted and say "you don't dance" because angels don't dance, you don't dance, because he remembers what Aziraphale said and what he did not say in the silence between..... they did not dance in 1941 and then in the present they dance at last but it isn't quite right is it because can't Aziraphale see the threat?? and can't Crowley stop saying such distracting things about demons and attacks?? what if the dance comes too late?what if angels finally DO dance, what if Aziraphale WANTS to dance, and Crowley too, but there's no nightingale's song anymore to dance to???? what then??????

Shen Qingqiu is like... he's kind of a damsel in distress, yes, but there's a distinct sultry and seductive quality to him as well, toeing on femme fatale but not quite enough seeing how oblivious he is to his own appeal (as well as social blunders).
He's his own thing. He's a damsel in distress, and you'll be dragged down in the pit too for it. Fatal damsel. That's what he is. He's a fatal damsel with a wife halo so world-endingly strong that his decaying corpse start wars between separate factions of besotted men.
