it is so vitally important to me that aziraphale and crowley not only love each other but choose to love each other.

i don’t want it to be fate. i don’t want it to be god’s will. i want it to be a conscious and continuous choice.

i want aziraphale choosing every day of his goddamn existence to love crowley and all that he is. i want aziraphale choosing to love crowley not in spite of being a demon, but because he is a demon. i want aziraphale choosing to love crowley’s curiosity and creative wonder. i want aziraphale choosing to love crowley’s love of plants and gardening.

i want crowley choosing to love aziraphale’s passion for books. i want crowley choosing to love aziraphale’s desire to do things the human way even if he could just miracle it. i want crowley choosing to love aziraphale’s angel-ness because it is a fundamental part of him.

i want aziraphale choosing to love everything about crowley and vise versa. and i want it to be a very conscious and intentional choice.

it being fate negates the entire point of the story. good omens is a love story between an angel and a demon, yes. but that’s not all that it is. it’s a story about two occult/ethereal beings who choose humanity over the great plan. two beings who choose the world over armageddon. and they make those choices because despite it all they have chosen to fall in love with the world and with humanity.

it only makes sense that they choose each other. that they choose their love. it being fate or god’s will ruins the foundational pillar of their relationship. that they choose each other over and over and over again. year after year, century after century, time and time again. they always choose. they choose the arrangement, they choose saving the other from harm, they choose lying to protect the other.

it is always a choice. and it better stay a choice or i am going to be so devastated.

#look i’m good with most anything for s3 #as long as they end up in the south downs & hug at least once i will be happy #but this is one thing that isn’t necessarily a need but more like a deep rooted desire that will break me if not met #like if it’s all ‘haha this was god’s plan all along’ i will be so upset #disappointed even #because neil can do better than that #he’s a better writer than that #not to mention it makes absolutely no sense in the context of the story #like i understand how it’s fun to play around with ‘they were made for each other’#but i really want them to choose each other despite everything #because if i’m being honest it’s one of the things about aziracrow that feels fundamentally queer #to say ‘yeah fuck that’ to what the systems in power tell you you should act like #or who you should love and care for #and instead say ‘i choose this’ ‘i choose you’ to the people and things that actually fulfill you #that is powerful and that is foundational to queerness and queer liberation in my opinion #it’s not about fate or being made for whatever #it’s saying ‘i don’t care if it’s fate or the divine plan or not. it just is and you can’t change the fact that it simply /is/.’#and maybe that’s just me #but it sure as hell makes sense in my mind #good omens #aziracrow #ineffable husbands #crowley #aziraphale #good omens 2 #ineffable wives #neil gaiman #good omens meta #aziracrow meta #gomens meta
