#crowley's turtleneck

[actual-changeling]

y'all. beloved tumblr besties.

we have the sleeveless, backless turtleneck BUT we are missing a vital accessory and for once twitter is actually useful. i invite everyone to imagine the following combination:

i will give my non-existent and never to be born firstborn to whoever graces us with crowley wearing both of these.

my mind is unfortunately going to very, very filthy places and conjuring up interesting images but i am on my hands and knees begging for anything at all 🙏🏻💚

(also at this point the turtleneck needs its own tag)

Very Nice

So. I wrote a lil thing.

“What did you have in mind?” Crowley is enjoying Aziraphale’s warm hand sliding around and under his leg, shifts his body closer and continues: “Don’t think I didn’t notice those ‘fuck me’ eyes angel when I danced for you. You looked like you wanted to devour me. For breakfast, lunch AND dinner." “Always. And yes, I was waiting for this performance for a long long time. As you well know. And you didn’t disappoint. Not that I expected anything else. So beautiful.” The angel sighs. “My own little ballet dancer. Care to do it again?” Crowley huffs. "Not a chance!" Aziraphale nozzles even closer to Crowley. “Anyway, of course, I wished to have you there and then. But there’s still time.”

Peter Murphy's turtleneck walked

So Crowley's turtleneck could run

Technically, we never see them wear the "turtleneck" without the jacket, and the fact that NO ONE in this fandom has proposed this idea is unacceptable

Angel/Demon Mating Dance (all the turtleneck madness drove me to... whatever this is. Enjoy.)

(yes, it is inspired by this:)

[hansoeii]

head empty, no thoughts. just turtleneck crowley

[sarahthecoat]

love that jacket too. major angel coded lapels. the way the fabric ripples near the seams and edges, suggests satin (silk? one would hope so!) or at the very least, polished cotton. anyway, a gorgeous piece of tailoring.

do you have a good full-length shot of turtleneck crowley? need a reference for a cosplay

Hiya! Mmm i dont think I have a good one but here are a few shots :):

transparent slut for icons etc :)

Can I watch?

GOOD OMENS S2E5 + some underrated Crowley shots

[gleafer]

Crowley has cracked the code of appeasing his crabby angel after a spat: DIVE BAR NACHOS and a certain black sweater.

[embracing-the-ineffable]

Oooo, I love this!! It would explain why Crowley is so apparently calm in the bookshop when Michael is threatening to erase Aziraphale from the Book of Life!

Also... Jim!Gabriel *already* reorganized the books. I wonder what the first line in the Book of Life is??

A Game of Spy vs Spy

(Or is it more Mr. & Mrs. Smith?)

Buckle up, because this one's about to get a little.. out there? Maybe. You decide for yourselves. I had this thought at 3am and I couldn't get it out of my head.

This following is based on two assumptions:

1. Aziraphale has a Plan (capital letter included) - see my explanation of why I believe that's the case in this post.

2. Crowley has been working on his own Plan since he dawned there Tactical Turtleneck - see this brilliant post by @justhereforthemeta .

Putting the rest under a Read More because it's a little lengthy.

To summarize both in case you don't have time to read both posts:

1. I believe Aziraphale's scary smile in the elevator is a smile he learned from spending so much time around Crowley and that it's reflective of him coming up with a plan to avert the Second Coming that he thinks is so clever that Crowley would absolutely approve.

The fact that Crowley is seen wearing his Super Secret Spy Gear multiple times throughout the series means he's actively working on his heist. He's plotting, he's planning. He disappears on Aziraphale when the angel is remembering Job. Disappearing on Aziraphale? That's not like Crowley at all.

2. Crowley is so enamored with the spy life (bullet hole decals anyone?) that he begins plotting a heist as soon as he finds out the Book of Life is a threat to Aziraphale. And the turtleneck is his spywear.

Crowley saves Aziraphale. It's his thing. He's done it over and over, countless times throughout history.

But listen to what Aziraphale says. Rescuing me makes him so happy. Rescuing me.

And the times Crowley asked Aziraphale to run away with him? Well, those times, it wasn't Aziraphale's life that was threatened. It was Crowley's. Hell found out he screwed up the baby switch? They were coming for him, not Aziraphale. Armageddon't? Isn't it demons that burn in a fiery pit for eternity when the world ends, not angels?

My point is.. M' point is..

Crowley isn't asking Aziraphale to run away with him at the end of Episode 6 only to chance The Metatron erasing Aziraphale from the Book of Life when they get there.

Crowley already has the Book of Life.

My bet? He had a little side project up in Heaven with Muriel off-camera. He was wearing the beige turtleneck after all.

And when we leave Heaven?

Turtleneck gone. Mission accomplished.

But let's not stop there!

Because Aziraphale has a Plan of his own now that he's returned from Heaven. And I'm betting at least part of it involves the Book of Life. And when he goes to look for it? GONE! And when he checks the files? Sure enough, there's Crowley sneaking it into his pocket. (And if we get an "Oh Good Lord" repeat at seeing Crowley's Heaven outfit, I'm not going to complain).

Alternatively, Heaven is going to find it missing, and they're going to know it was Crowley who took it and Aziraphale has to get it back to try to save Crowley.

Either way, he's going to have to get it.

And I'm betting Mr. BackOnHisOwnSide Crowley isn't going to be too forthcoming when the Supreme Archangel asks for it back.

And let the Spy vs Spy hijinks commence.

..................

Below is one conversation I've dreamed up in my head about all this, if you're into that kind of thing. Enjoy:

Crowley: If only I had access to a place with a truly ridiculous number of old books where one new addition would go completely unnoticed.

Aziraphale: Well, it's a good thing I know this bookshop better than anyone then, isn't it?

Crowley (bearing his teeth): I've reorganized.

Aziraphale: *gasp*

Crowley's Outfits/Looks in Season Two of Good Omens

From the Behind-the-Scenes Good Omens 2 videos:

Annie McEwan (Hair & Makeup Designer): David's so keen to be extraordinarily different in every single opportunity. David Tennant: The look we have for him in the show is not quite as he's described in the book because the tv version of Good Omens is sort of set now rather than back when the book was written. Crowley's sort of of-the-moment that he's in, unlike Aziraphale whose rather frozen in aspic and has worn the same clothes for hundreds of years. I think Crowley likes to sort of feel like he's of the moment that he's in so he has to be a little bit rock 'n' roll. I don't know how en vogue he really is.

Hello~! Crowley likes James Bond a normal amount.

[vroomvroomwee]

OK OK OK I know everyone is all over sleeveless turtleneck Crowley, but for the love of God I cannot get this out of my head

(Leaves room to headcannon that he wore this after things started going to shit so that he could get his wings out more easily)

Wings + Backless Turtleneck

(inspired by this by @vroomvroomwee)

[dalliancekay]

I felt the need to wear a turtleneck after watching this scene. Not to mention periodically rub my knees...

So Crowley and Aziraphale had an argument, and Crowley did the apology dance that night, and Aziraphale looked at him like this

and the next day, Crowley felt the need to suddenly wear a turtleneck.

I'm sure there's no connection.
