ADHD Crowley Headcanons because I love them very much

ADHD Crowley lives rent-free in my heart. Also, I will be switching pronouns for him throughout this because genderfluid Crowley

He stims by moving his head from side to side (like a snake)

They vocal stim by doing a Scottish accent randomly

They'll just be chilling with Aziraphale in the bookshop and they'll both be silently doing their own thing

And then out of nowhere...

He'll just start saying random things in a Scottish accent, and he'll stay like that for hours until he gets a good amount of dopamine from it

His hyperfixation is stars and space, obviously

He sticks his tongue out as he does important things so he can focus more

She loves sorting things. If she ever needs dopamine or if she's just bored, Aziraphale has a bunch of boxes of little trinkets and things for her to sort and fidget with

Speaking of fidgeting, Crowley hoards fidget toys like there's no tomorrow

She just pulls them out of nowhere

She's in a meeting with Hell and getting bored?

*Fidget toy has been summoned*

All the demons in Hell find it so annoying because they'll take them away

Only for her to have even more than before

They've given up on confiscating his fidget toys

Listening to songs on repeat is a form of stimming, so I feel like they'd hear a specific Queen song and they're like "Oh, here's the song that I'm focusing all my energy on for either a week or the next 5 years"

They hoard blankets

If they get too stressed out they turn into a snake and slither around the bookshop

They will make random little noises in the silence, just to fill it

"Blop. Blop. Blop. Beep. Beeeeep. Beeeeeeeee-"

"Crowley, dear, will you stop beeping?"

Aziraphale doesn't care what sound she makes, as long as it isn't beeping

When Crowley is low on dopamine, she gets so incredibly depressed

She just sits and does nothing for weeks

Aziraphale usually tries to bring her out of it by taking her to space museums or giving her space books to read

It doesn't always work, but Crowley appreciates the effort

When he's on about a hyperfixation though...

Let's just say that he puts the "hyper" in hyperfixation

Aziraphale loves seeing him like that

All smiley and happy and bouncing around

Crowley could go on for hours about any little topic that interests him when he gets like that

The 'Aziraphale Still Believes in Heaven' Take

Is one that I see so often. Too often. The way many fans (still) say Aziraphale is so naïve, he's never learned anything, he never changes, Metatron just offered him a promotion and he happily jumped on it. Happy to go back to Heaven. Still in their clutches. Leaving Crowley behind. Cos nothing lasts forever. Amirite? Poor long-suffering Crowley. So patient. Goes through so much. Aww. Takes that say that because Crowley never told Aziraphale about the venom in Gabriel's "Shut your stupid mouth and die already", Aziraphale has no idea that Heaven is not the good guys, that he still believes they are on the side of truth and light.

Takes that claim Aziraphale wants Crowley to come to Heaven and be an angel again so they can be happy like in the good old times. Takes that basically say that Aziraphale is stupid. And blind. LISTEN Do you mean this Aziraphale:

Who knew before Crowley did that something is rotten in the state of Denmark, that things are wrong and one can get in a lot of trouble for a thing as minor as a suggestion to improve things. Is this the Aziraphale that would seriously suggest to Crowley, who he was immediately deeply anxious over, to go back to 'good old times'? What good old times? How is Heaven a place of light when:

A bunch of angels comes down to Earth to bully and PUNCH ONE OF THEIR OWN?

Why would he think they are the light when they shame him for being who he is?

And yes, Aziraphale wants to do good. But that's not tied to him being an angel. And it's not a bad thing ffs! Crowley does good as well. Aziraphale might be the only one who knows, but he knows. Maybe getting humans out of the Garden to seek knowledge was always a (certainty) possibility, and maybe not, but it was Aziraphale's decision to arm them.

And She didn't make him Fall for it. And do you remember when:

Aziraphale first openly questioned that Heaven was actually doing what God actually wanted? He had a think after the Flood, didn't he. He did what he thought was right. He trusted Crowley over his fellow angels, with his own sense of rightness. He and Crowley saved the kids that Aziraphale triple checked the Archangels saw no problem in letting die to make things easier. And She didn't make him Fall for it. In Edinburgh:

Az re-evaluated the thinking he was taught and did a full 180 degree turn, trying in few hours to save the grave-robbing girl AND the possible future lives of children that could be helped via more learning. And when we come to Metatron and his threats, we don't see the full conversation, but don't we see enough? Aziraphale says that he's not interested. Metatron keeps nagging at him. Pushing the symbolic coffee from Coffee or Death at him. Flattering him with obvious untruths. After all, Aziraphale knows what Heaven thinks of him. He tried to reason with Metatron before. Metatron tells him they know how deep his disobedience lies:

Aziraphale is not a fool. He knows this is an offer of come quietly or we will find a way to destroy you and your demon this time. Aziraphale didn't have to hear Metatron's quip of: "For one prince of Heaven to be cast into the outer darkness makes a good story. For it to happen twice, makes it look like there is some kind of institutional problem." He knows the system is rotten. He knows for a LONG time. Did you see his face when he met Muriel and realised what a lonely sad existence they lead.

AND Crowley doesn't love Aziraphale despite the fact that he's being used to get out of trouble, being made to listen about random things the angel enjoys from symphonies to food and plays, and who continues to believe in goodness and kindness. CROWLEY LOVES AZIRAPAHLE BECAUSE OF THOSE THINGS AND because he sees Aziraphale for what he is, an angel who thinks for himself, changes his mind, learns, angel who is brave, who stands for the right thing, who sacrifices his own happiness for the safety of others, especially the demon he loves. They are the same. They are lonely. They are one of a kind. And they love each other.

Aziraphale wants to stay at home. In the home he built for himself and Crowley. On Earth where he's found so much to love. But he knows it is impossible. As Crowley confesses his love, Aziraphale struggles to stay on his plan to push him away, to make him stay. He'll miss Crowley terribly. He wants them to be together. For him, they were an 'us' the whole S2. However tenuously. Fragile existence and all that.

But even this was ripped away from him. And whatever he's planning, he knows he needs to do the first steps on his own. He can't submit Crowley to the torture that being in Heaven is going to be for him, an unwanted, despised angel. And that would be even worse for an unwanted demon. He had to push him away.

So he leaves. Furious. And determined. Whether it is to burn the place down or find God and ask Her all the questions to Her face I don't know. But his love will push him through.

And if I see one more simplistic take of the snarky demon is really good isn't he, so that means the stuffy angel is bad (and needs to change to be worthy of the demon) I will curse their dreams with lines about shades of grey. AZIRAPHALE AND CROWLEY ALREADY LOVE EACH OTHER

Random TWST Headcanons

Kalim has colour/sound synesthesia

Crowley has a physical list of excuses for why he can't do X thing. It's in his desk draw and is about a meter long. It's written in calligraphy.

Kalim grabs onto things super tight in his sleep because he's subconsciously afraid of things he loves being taken away from him. He's grabbed onto Jamil's wrist multiple times, leaving Jamil with no choice but to sleep in Kalim's bed with him. (Inspired by otters holding each other's hands in their sleep so they don't float away from each other).

Ortho takes photos (screenshots?) of all the cats he sees to show Idia later

Najma has been trying to get Kalim and Jamil together since she was seven. She's determined.

Cater is a rare extroverted Highly Sensitive Person. (Around 15% of people are HSPs and out of those, around 30% are extroverts.)

The Octatrio all know sign language. They learned it so they could communicate when they needed to be silent. Now they just use it to confuse and annoy people who don’t know what they’re saying.

Azul is a sleepwalker and talker. (Inspired by the fact that octopuses change colours in their sleep to camouflage with environments in their dreams.)

Jade likes to chew ice cubes. He likes the Cronch.

Kalim once accidentally led to someone’s death by giving his food to them since they were hungry and their meal was taking a long time. It was poisoned and he still feels really guilty about it.

Jamil has killed multiple people to protect Kalim, the earliest being at nine years old. He tries his best to hide this fact from Kalim, but Kalim suspects it anyway. 

Leona starts teaching Cheka swear words after Book 2.

Deuce's mom has decided to take care of Riddle (even before meeting him). She occasionally sends Deuce some care packages to give to Riddle, containing homemade snacks and the like.

Cater likes to buy plushies that remind him of his friends for them. One day Trey gets him a plushie that reminds him of Cater and he cries in his room.

what might have happened in 1941....

[lickthecowhappy]

What do you think he keeps with him?

A white handkerchief made of softest silk A pocket watch adorned with snaking filigree A ring of keys that unlock precious things: One for a door to hoarded tomes One for the desk drawer hiding secrets One for a set of shackles chained to crêpes and brioche A pearl found in a demon’s first oyster A shilling exchanged for ninety guineas A rifle bullet “caught” on the West End Stage A burned prophecy from a Nice and Accurate book And one immortal lifetime of love folded so deliberately that no one can see its shape

a clandestine meeting interrupted c. 1861. the ladies crowley and fell found conversing unattended in the parlour without chaperone nor candlelight, who both seemed flushed and annoyed to be found out by other party attendants

If Crowley can change size in his human form, then he can do it too with the snakey one 😤 and he has wings too, he told me so! 😌

PLEASE MORE ADHD CROWLEY

Pfft- okay. Istg the fact that there's so little ADHD Crowley content upsets me, but it's keeping me in business /hj

Crowley strikes me as an impulse buyer

He sees a cool plant and he's like "mine :D"

And they buy as many as they want cuz who the fuck's gonna stop them? Aziraphale is

They're just very impulsive in general though

Like, planning things to inconvenience people only to find that you've screwed yourself over in the process?

Definition of impulsiveness

She's also terrible with time

Like, she'll be talking to Aziraphale about this plan she has and she'll be like "Yeah, I'm gonna do this at about 3 so that way I'll have time for other things"

"...Crowley, dear, it's 6 PM"

"FUCK"

She also forgets how long it's been since certain events

He'll be talking about WWII like it was just a couple years ago and Aziraphale would remind him that it was about 80 years ago

Poor planning

That's all

It's literally a symptom of ADHD

And that's literally what Crowley's personality is

I'm not elaborating on that one

He accidentally interrupts people when he's really excited

They don't mean to

Someone just says something that sparks a train of thought and now they can't shut it off and they just have to get it out

I feel like they'd come into the bookshop when anxious or understimulated and just....organizes Aziraphale's books in a very specific way that only them and Azi know

And they hyperfocus and finish before the day's over

They'd also leave small succulants in there for Aziraphale :)

[crowleys-hips]

Minisodes i'd love to see in S3:

- Titanic. extra points if there's a "draw me like one of your french girls" scene, with Azi drawing Crowley

- 10 plagues of Egypt

- Birth of Jesus. with them judging Gabriel for not knowing shit about how babies are born or made

- Stonewall

- either of them or both of them interacting with different famous people. Da Vinci, Jane Austen, Freddie Mercury, etc

- AND OFC: 1941 part 3. extra EXTRA points if it includes 1. a religiously symbolic foot washing scene 2. dancing to A Nightingale Sang In Berkley Square 3. the Almost Kiss

I demand you make an malleus x Crowley daughter reader, you have no right to deny me slave

XDDDDDDDDDDDDD Ah anon is lovely today <3

Malleus Draconia

You must have met Malleus when you went to visit your father's workplace.

Even if you didn't visit there often, you knew the place well.

But unfortunately your father was busy during that time.

So you decided to go for a walk while waiting for your father to have time for you.

On this walk you met Malleus for the first time.

Malleus would be interested in you because he wouldn't have seen you before.

And Malleus was even more interested when you weren't afraid of him.

You two would have a great time together.

Malleus would really enjoy your company.

And would like to spend more time with you.

Time passes.

And you really would become much closer.

However, being Crowley's daughter creates certain difficulties.

Because Crowley would be kind of an overprotective father…

Or…

you could go for a night walk in the woods by yourself.

But you really wouldn't get a date until you were 60.

Crowley might call Malleus into the Headmaster's office for this… it wouldn't end so well XD

And Malleus would certainly not appreciate this.

Most likely he would ask Lilia to speak to Crowley.

Like father to father talk.

It might help… Or it had better help.

Because once Malleus was in love with you, he wouldn't let anyone stop your relationship.

Not even your father.

bildad the shuhite doodles i did on a plane 🫶

[simplyreveries]

I noticed that you opened the requests. I wanted to ask related to staff (separated) with mc/yuu who had daddy issues in their world and who sees them as a father figure

i love this sm,,,, TY<3

dire crowley

he is…. interesting- he does mean well but he just does a poor job executing that sometimes. he was never expecting to feel such a sense of protectiveness and being overly doting to you. it started when he couldn't help but feel pity for your own situation and watching you adjust to this world is tough.

you’ll find him randomly popping up out of nowhere in school and he’ll ask how you’re doing. a way as a check up on how you’re handling this world and school life so far, he’d tell you if you ask him. as soon as you ask him about home… "oh! is someone is calling me?" and just literally disappears.

In this case, I feel like his reluctance to figure out a way to bring you home stems from the fact that he really does care for you and doesn't want to lose that. so, let's just say, it'll take him awhile to figure that out. crowley seems to be trying to convince you how amazing, twisted wonderland really is! you could thrive and live so happily here! (minus the overblots… terrifying magic… creatures and more) he tells you how great it is for you already have a home, a whole dorm for yourself, as he’d say: “for i am so gracious!” that he’s done such a generous thing for you.

the first time you tried to give him a hug as thanks for something he was completely confused and didn't know how to react. he laughed and gave you the awkward pat on the back but once again, he means well i promise.

divus crewel

you have blatant favoritism from him… he seems a little less strict with you and if a student asks he’ll deny and tell them he doesn't do that or that he has to be since you’re not even from this world. he wouldn't expect you to know how to do certain things after all.

but still, ace and grim could groan because they got in trouble for forgetting homework or assignments but if you did he’d sigh and be like “bring it in tomorrow” and they are always so UPSET. it's also rare to get some compliments from him, but he seems to point out something well you did and give you a little “good improvement” and such. It's so obvious how he seems to care for you.

divus is literally the epitome of judgment when it comes to anyone having eyes for you or you tell him about even liking someone yourself… he is too protective and feels like any boy at this school is undeserving of you. he sees any attempt during class of one of them flirting or anything as them simply bothering you. If you mention someone like floyd he’d give you the most concerned look and be like “oh… him, how troublesome”. he doesn't really say what he thinks, unless you really ask for his opinion. he more so listens to you talk and he does genuinely try to give you some advice, even if it's a bit blunt.

mozus trein

now despite his strict and sternness, he can be a very calming person to be around and talk to. he will be pretty quiet, but he can become someone you just find if you need to talk as he listens and grades assignments, doing some work. if you really need to take your mind of certain worries and stresses, like finding a way back to your world- he'll offer you some tea and maybe even offer to play a game of chess with you (as he does with divus sometimes!)

trein is a father himself, he was very close to his daughters- so it actually is quite easy for him out of all of the staff members to develop a familial like relationship with. he enjoys having that feeling of looking after someone again and being someone, you could look up to in that sense. he would eventually notice that you do see him in such a way, he wouldn't say it, but it does warm his heart.

he'll let you play and pet lucius, it's just part of your special privileges. surprisingly, the cat likes you and always tries rubbing against you. since trein trusts you though, you will be given the duty to buy lucius cat toys from sams shop with money he gives you, he says its "in compensation" haha.

if you happen to be causing trouble with grim or some student in class, he'll scold you. but through it, he will remind and tell you he knows you're a good kid and doesn't want other bothersome students tarnishing your potential.

ashton vargas

oh poor you if you dread fitness or sports because he's always booming so loud, excited and pumped to get you involved more. even if you don't want to do something with others, he loves initiating one on one games with you and challenging you. he will not go easy though and laughs proudly whenever he wins. he'll still pat you on the back and tell you "nice job, kid!" or something of that sort. he's very supportive even if hes overly competitive at times.

sometimes you do have to hear his tangents on how he became so fit and strong... especially his "advice" on how great it is to consume raw eggs... this guy . he tries telling you it'd benefit you.

lowkey makes a big deal if you got hurt and needed to go to the infirmary. he always tries to keep a special eye on you in case and tries his absolute best to make sure you're alright. even after getting help, you needed from the nurse, still!!

sam

he tends to keep a watchful eye on you... he would much prefer and even offer, saying you'd be perfect to be working beside him at his shop. he wouldn't want you resorting or going somewhere like the mostro lounge really. but other than that, he is a very carefree guy who you could easily find yourself talking to about problems or issues you're having. his attitude and approach to things can be a good help.

also, if you're in general in need of something from his store, because you're extra special to him he'll sometimes just give you heavily discounted or even be like take it, ("it wasn't selling anyways"). hehe. he cares. especially when it comes to like snacks or food he'll have, he'll claim it's your "employee benefits!" if you're working there.

sam is pretty much in the loop with anything interesting happening at school or things he may have overheard from students. you can easily get gossip out of him, just saying. but sometimes that just turns him into trying to discreetly warn you about certain students at nrc.

Aziraphale attempting to spread the gospel

Hello! ^^ Have you heard about our Lord and Savior today? *Pulls out a piece of paper and hands it over*

*The person, baffled, looking at a picture of Crowley* 🤨

*Aziraphale peeks at the paper to see what that expression is all about. Then grabs it in a panic* Oh! No- Not that one! That's- *rummages through his other papers and it's all Crowley somehow* NEVERMINDHAVEANICEDAY

He never tried that again.
