Not So Cruel

Aziraphale gets Crowley a plant, early on in their acquaintanceship. Idea from @hikarry

Crowley isn’t as cruel as he likes to paint himself to be

He/Him for Crowley

If you asked Crowley to describe himself, he might say cold, mean, stylish, and of course never nice. But if you were to observe Crowley in his Mayfair flat, with only the plants for company, you��d see it wasn’t entirely true. There was one plant, a special plant, the last of its kind sitting in a beautiful white vase, with gold trimmings. This plant was certainly his favorite, he’s kept it alive for nearly a millennia now. And it was the only one that could do no wrong.

He treated his plants the only way he knew how, to strict standards, unobtainable standards unless the plants were made from plastic, which they weren’t; he prided himself on that. He treated them as he had been treated, told and yelled at to be perfect, to be holy, and have unwavering faith. And yet he failed, he failed and in a desperate sense for control he now inflicts that upon his dear plants.

“Is that a spot?” He asked, having noticed browning and a hole on one of the newer plants he gained, “is it? Right, you know what I’ve told you all about leaf spots.” The plants began to tremble, all but one, the one in the white vase. Never would it fear Crowley. “I will not stand for them!” He picked up the smaller plant by the pot, looking down on it. “You know what you’ve done, you disappointed me,” he sighed out as if he were a father talking to his child. “Oh dear, oh dear, everyone!” He held the plant high, showing it off to the other plants, “say goodbye to your friend, just couldn’t cut it.” And with that he walked to the hall, “this is gonna hurt you, so much more than it will hurt me.” He turned around, “ and you guys, grow better!!” He yelled before resuming his way down the hall, now to the plants, they heard the garbage disposal running, what they didn’t hear or see was Crowley snapping his fingers, and the plant appearing in his neighbor’s flat, amongst all the other banished plants. He returned with the empty pot, flipping it upside down as if to enunciate the ‘death’ of the plant. He set the pot down, and carefully picked up the white vase, features softening, “never you, though, so what is it you need?” He murmured gently, noticing how one leaf was wilting as he brought it to his office, setting it onto the windowsill. “Will sunlight help?” He could only smile as the plant seemed to instantaneously reverse the wilting and stand tall.

Crowley was a softie, a lover, and an optimist at heart, especially for his angel. But he would never admit that.

“Another biblical epic in Season 2”

I wonder what that will be? The Tower of Babel? The Plagues of Egypt? Or maybe the 10 Commandments?

“Aziraphale, Guardian of the Eastern Gate of Eden.”

“Yes, Lord?”

“I need you to meet Moses at Mt. Sinai to give him this list of Commandments to carve into tablets for his people.”

“Yes, Lord.”

“Also, here is the flaming sword you misplaced. It’s nighttime and you’ll need it to light your way.”

“Of, of course, Lord. You can count on me!”

“One more thing, Aziraphale.”

“Yes, Lord?”

“Be careful on the path. It’s rocky and treacherous.”

“Thank you, Lord. I’ll get on it right away! It’ll be two shakes of a lamb’s tail.”

“And don’t lose the sword this time.”

“Um, yes, I’ll be especially careful with it!”

“Good. Go with my blessing, my son.”

Aziraphale is staggering up a narrow path on the side of Mt. Sinai when he hears a rustling sound in the brush.

“Who’s there? Is someone there?” He holds out the flaming sword. “Reveal yourself!”

“Pssst! Aziraphale! It’s just me! Hey - watch where you’re swinging that thing!”

“Crawley, what are you doing here? You really need to leave! I’m on important business and can’t dilly-dally talking to you right now!”

“Say, what’s that in your hand, on that clay tablet?”

“You never mind, demon! Now go away, I’m very busy!”

“You don’t have to get testy! I was just wondering if you’d like to meet up later for a drink? There’s a new place in Ur I heard about that has especially good wine.”

“Well, I suppose that would be ok. I might be awhile, though.”

“See you there later, Angel!” Crawley snaps and disappears.

Aziraphale hears another sound from the path much further below, and as he peers over the ledge to investigate he accidentally drops the sword into a bush below and it starts to blaze.

“Oh. Oh bother!”

Ello Mr. Gaiman!

My friend and I had a question!

So Dr Google says you are of Jewish background. May we ask why write about such Christian themes (particularly in GO)?

This is plain curiosity coming from us being Jewish and we both feel like Judaism is not properly presented in popular media.

All the love!

-R&N

Because by definition there isn't a Jewish Antichrist story. I mean, that's going to be from the Revelation of John of Patmos any way you cut it.

If it's any consolation, the opening of Episode 1 and the first two scenes of episode 3 are very Jewish. And you'll get another biblical epic in Season 2.

But then again, I tend to think of Crowley as the most Jewish character I've ever written. Even more Jewish than Harry the violinist in Sandman.

Good Omens Nose Appreciation

You know that one photo of Michael Sheen. I know he’s skinny in it. I wanted to draw him anyway. Michael Sheen is gorgeous in every form he takes. I WILL be drawing the TV Aziraphale too.

Crowley wanted to die, he hated his life now after he had fallen for asking to many questions, he doesn’t really remember much of it though because it just hurt too. Since he’s fallen, he was brought back to heaven and kept there as a prisoner. It physically pained him to touch consecrated grounds and items so he tried to stay in the bed that was in his cell as much as he could but they didn’t allow that. Sometimes they would take his bed to torture and the cuffs never left his wrists, sometimes they would add chains.

They continually mocked him, especially Gabriel and they loved to cause him pain, diluted holy water, burning sage, and if they were especially cruel then they would mess with his wings and he hated that, he tried to pull them in to protect but it didn’t always work. They would hit him, using their daggers on him and pour stuff in the wounds. They continuously mocked his snake eyes that he would not let anyone see for fear of that same thing. He couldn’t even remember the last time that he had ate anything either, not that he really needed to eat anyway.

They decided to drag him from his cell and humiliate him, tugging on his wings, saying don’t you wish to know who you really are, along with laughing at him for being so weak and pathetic, kicking at him and tugging on his hair. He screamed as he felt a slice on his wings “No, please, don’t touch them” he tried to pull them in but he couldn’t.

[onceuponapuffin]

Because I'm in a sharing mood and have some extra time:

I've put this in a few other places, so if you see it floating around elsewhere it's me. As far as I know, I'm the only one with this headcanon.

After the Job debacle, Jemima keeps trying to summon Crawley. Not intentionally, and not by way of hellish ritual or anything. She just keeps praying to God for "that funny demon" to come back and play with her.

Crawley can feel it. At first he laughs it off, but after a while it gets annoying. So one day he goes back to Job's place to tell Jemima to stop doing that to tell her that she can't be doing that. He means to tell her off, really. But she ends up showing him all of her new pottery projects. By the time she eventually ends up plaiting his hair he makes up his mind to tell her...

When Sitis comes in, wondering who Jemima is talking to. She sees Crawley, recognizes him.

"Ah Bildad the Shuhite, how lovely to see you again. You're staying for dinner of course." Then she leaves, presumably to get dinner going. Crawley is left speechless, mouth open, no words, not given a choice.

At the dinner table, he feels out of place. Ennon and Kesiah keep looking at him funny, and once or twice they try to ask questions, but Sitis shushes them. After they eat, Crawley is given an open invitation to join them again next week. He says no.

Sitis sets him a place anyway.

He shows up.

Each dinner he's given another invitation. Each time he declines. Each time Sitis sets him a place anyway. Each time he shows up anyway. It's almost like she's known his type before. The type who are prickly on the outside, but sweet on the inside and just wanting someone who is willing to hold them regardless of the thorns. The only other person ever to do that has been Aziraphale, and Someone Knows where he is these days.

Next thing he knows, Crawley has actually become Bildad the Shuhite: Family Friend. He is around regularly, and even Ennon and Kesiah don't mind him so much, although they still roll their eyes at him whenever they think they can get away with it.

He tells Jemima his real name ONCE. While the two of them are alone, playing Tea Party with her dolls.

She mishears "Crawley" as "Crowley."

He keeps it.
