“My problematic blorbo. My little meow meow. He did nothing wrong and then he did everything wrong and he's an idiot and I adore him. He gets a redemption arc and then an anti-redemption arc. He is sweet and he is lost, and he is cute, and he is hot, and he is angry, and he is scared and have I mentioned he's hot? Because he is!!! He has the kind of chiseled face that not even STATUES get to have!! And those eyes!!! And that hair!!! I will treasure him forever.”

It's still the 14th century, and will this blasted century ever end?!
A sad, wet, and cold Crowley in the rain is picked up off the side of the road by the knightly Sir Aziraphale who is on his own pilgrimage of sorts. Medieval shenanigans ensue.
And of course, mistakes were made...

I got The Canterbury Tales, and Middle English is weird.
I can see similarities to Scots, which I suppose isn’t really surprising given that that’s where it branched off, but it is interesting to see those similarities.
The spelling is atrocious (it took time for Modern English to adopt standardized spelling, so we’re hundreds of years away from spelling that we are most familiar with), but so far I love it (mostly).

the canterbury tales experience so far
knight: thus concludes my tale of love and chivalry with carefully wrought details and grace… miller: i’m so drunk but i’m here to have a good time, forget the chivalry, i’m here to deliver comedy reeve: the miller crafted a tale specifically to humiliate someone of my profession. i must craft and answering tale to humiliate him in return. wife of bath *ignoring all of them*: and this is why i should be allowed to FUCK
