Hi!! I was really interested in your point of view regarding the pre fall scene, I haven't seen anyone talk about it in that way before. Why / how does it change their relationship?

To me, what makes the whole of Aziraphale and Crowley's relationship so meaningful is that these are two old, supernatural beings whose entire (love) story takes place on Earth. They met, they made their homes, they fell in love, all of this on Earth. And that's just the foundation of their relationship and story to me.

For Aziraphale, this means that Crowley-the-demon is the ONLY version of Crowley that he's known. In Eden, he lifts up his wing over Crowley to shield him from the rain and this scene is so impactful because it's an angel reaching out and protecting this demon he just met, someone who should be his enemy, right after the Fall of Man. It comes from Aziraphale's kindness alone. Season 2's pre-Fall scene cheapens this by having Crowley protect Aziraphale first, which just makes it seem like in Eden Aziraphale is just repaying the favor.

In season one, when Aziraphale says "you were an angel once," it is meant as this nebulous thing. All demons were once angels, he means. All demons have the capacity to be good. Aziraphale is in denial that Heaven is anything but Good, but he at least is aware that Heaven doesn't hold the monopoly on it. After season 2's pre-Fall scene, this changes the context to "I remember what you were like in Heaven, and you could be that again." And this is enforced when Aziraphale, in season two, says "I know the angel that you were." Which leaves such a fucking bad taste in my mouth.

Aziraphale does not believe that Crowley is good because he was an angel once. He knows Crowley is good because ever since he met this demon on the walls of Eden, Crowley has expressed sympathy with the plight of humanity and has done what he can to help, even when it puts him in direct danger from Hell.

Before season 2 came out, when we just had the book and season one to go off, the Eden scene was Aziraphale and Crowley's first meeting. Period. We could play around in the sand-box of "what if they did know each other before the Fall?" and it was fun! I liked some of those fics! But I never wanted it to be canon because I always felt deeply that that just isn't what Aziraphale and Crowley's story is about.

And you could say, well, I like the pre-Fall scene because it shows that Aziraphale has known every version of Crowley, but he prefers this version, the demon with yellow snake eyes who does good and tries to hide it. And that's a fair interpretation! But I still think that it's just making the best of what we've got.

Crowley and Aziraphale treasure earth and humanity so deeply. I think that their story should start on earth, watching over the humans they love so much. That's the story I prefer.

hello!! first, your poem touched me profoundly, your writing is beautiful ♡ to cheer you up, feel free to talk about thorbruce (idk if you ship them or if it's platonic?? but they're great i really enjoyed Ragnarok!!) like favorite moments, rant about it, anything :D (also i hope your brother gets better soon!)

hi there, oh my god !!!! thank you so so much that is the nicest thing ever 😭😭 i’m so glad you loved my poem, thank you so much for reading/supporting ❤️

i will gladly talk about thorbruce ALL DAY EVERY DAY, i do ship them romantically i absolutely love them 😭 i’m honestly gutted that it’s looking like there’s no sign of mark being in love and thunder because their build up in ragnarok/infinity war/endgame is too good to be thrown away so carelessly and for bruce not to make an appearance in love and thunder.

ragnarok established them as very healthy friends and gave us thor being the ONLY avenger to remotely care about bruce and look past him being the hulk/not being threatened by hulk and the control that bruce could lose. not only does nobody care about bruce at ALL following AoU, but when he returns in infinity war nobody cares that much either. i get that there was no real room to explore bruce’s side of things upon rejoining earth during the biggest battle in history, but sidelining it for comedic effect was the absolute fucking worst.

to me, thor should have always been the one to ground bruce and calm him like nat does in AoU because they are the most alike and on a similar level when it comes to strength and understanding. thor’s handling of bruce’s panic in ragnarok once he has de-hulked only proves this further because he reassures bruce and looks after him in a very offhanded way that doesn’t need much signposting (thor caring about bruce and making sure he is okay and safe on sakaar is there, but it’s not outwardly shown) and then endgame LITERALLY CONFIRMS IT? bruce admitting to thor that he was the one to help him out of a very dark, traumatic and stressful time in his life literally makes thor the main person in bruce’s life from that point onward.

it was never nat and it never should’ve been nat. it should’ve been thor, always, and it will never make any sense to me as to why in endgame they had thor and bruce lose touch over those five years during the snap and the time heist. why did nobody check up on thor? why did nobody keep him safe from himself and self destruction? more importantly, WHO wrote bruce so out of character that he wouldn’t have stayed with thor and looked after him like thor did for bruce in ragnarok? it’s established that bruce sees thor as someone he cares about, one of the only people he cares about, and that they have a deeper loyalty and understanding of each other following ragnarok/infinity war (don’t even get me started on infinity war) so why would bruce leave him by himself? it’s just out of character writing that pisses me off MAJORLY.

i just... how can they ignore all of this that has been set up? bruce is clearly important to thor and is one of the only people left in his life that he cares about/that cares about thor and what happens to him. they are each other’s most important person now, now more than ever before. for thor’s journey to continue without even a nod to bruce (i’m hoping as the king of the ship, taika will know to at least mention him) just feels wrong to me. they’re a big part of helping each other overcome their individual traumas and after going through things like they have together it’s hard to not be interlinked on a deeper and more emotional level.

also i know for a fact if they had stuck together after the snap neither of their characters would’ve been a mess in endgame. there would’ve been no fat thor (bruce would’ve helped him work through his grief and supported him in getting help and thor would have reminded bruce of all the horrible shit hulk has done to him and why he rightfully hates him in the first place and therefore should NOT transform into prof hulk. just ew. no)

i honestly have so many thoughts about this?? i’m sorry this probably isn’t even remotely coherent but LMAO when i put this in a proper coherent post THEN it will be over for all these hoes (marvel)

thank you for the lovely message though 🥺 my brother is on the way back from the emergency room now, so i hope he will be okay!

sending you love xx

hi! where is that quote "anything, so long as you remember me" from?

hi! uhhhhh so short answer is, i have no idea

long answer is, this quote's been in my head for over a decade at this point i think, and i'm not sure if it's

a) a different quote that i'm no longer remembering correctly b) i made it up and just don't remember doing it c) from a fan translated doujinshi

i'm sorry this is incredibly unhelpful

Comic Howard wasn’t even involved in Steve’s experiment. He and Steve didn’t know each other.

Oooh okay thanks for the info 🙏 interesting that MCU Steve and Howard were plonked together. Made for some cool Easter eggs tho.

@bucxkybarnes doesn’t specifically answer your question but good to know!

hi!! for the ask thing, top 5 stucky subtle moments ♡

hello, thank you so much for this!

1. their shoulder touches. when bucky touches steve’s shoulder in the og end of the line scene and then steve does the same in the hellicarrier in civil war? a masterpiece!

2. the way they look at each other. observe: steve in catfa when bucky says he’s following him? bucky in cacw when him and steve are talking about memories from the 30s/40s? how marvel expect us to think this is straight i will never know. it’s so intimate and says everything that words can, which is something so powerful to emanate between two people on screen. it’s real props to seb and chris because being able to radiate their sheer love and loyalty to each other just through looks? incredible

3. the fact that bucky is steve’s one weakness. one of my favourite scenes is when rumlow says “your pal, your buddy, your bucky.” it’s literally so intense... YOUR BUCKY... he doesn’t belong to steve in a sense of ownership he belongs to steve in a sense of love and loyalty and commitment. everyone knew bucky was steve’s weakness and the fact rumlow says YOUR bucky just sends me to an astral plane

4. steve taking the suit from the smithsonian because he knows bucky will recognise it. I MEAN? this is literally... marvel could not have laid it out any clearer and more perfect. it coincides with the dialogue in catfa and is just iconic in itself really. the fact steve remembers he said that as well. amazing

5. their fighting in civil war and how steve covers bucky with the shield and bucky puts his arm around steve. HELLO!!!!!! they haven’t fought together since the 40s but they slip back into it just like that... and even though bucky is still confused about who steve is and who he should trust, he does this almost automatically. steve was always deeply rooted within bucky’s mind and even though he’s hesitant about it, he knows deep down that this is more than just a man here to stop him from being hurt and taken in, this is a man who came here because he loves and cares about him deeply

special mentions: because you said subtle i left out the big ones so obviously:

— “i’m with you til the end of the line.”

— “don’t do anything stupid until i get back” / “how can i? you’re taking all the stupid with you.”

— “even when i had nothing, i had bucky.” this one gets me SO BADDDDD

— “rumlow said bucky, and suddenly i was a sixteen year old kid in brooklyn again.”

— “best friends since childhood, bucky barnes and steven rogers were inseparable on both school yard and battlefield.”

— “you pulled me from the river. why?” / “i don’t know.” / “yes you do.”

— bucky saying steve’s name. it’s something so special to me... especially when he says it in civil war “you’re steve.. i read about you in a museum.” and when steve rescues him in azzano

— bucky being amazed at the stark expo but still looking over to see if steve was enjoying himself

— THE NOTEBOOK.... bucky having steve’s notebook after ten fucking years i’m JUMPING?

— the scene of bucky looking at the shield and clearly thinking about steve... spain without the s

UHHH THIS CLEARLY ISNT A TOP FIVE LMFAO BUT I DONT CARE I LOVE THEM

ask me my top 5/top 10 anything!
