#excuse tumblrs shit new dm format

[finleycannotdraw]

thank you @sweet-tangerine-dreams for engaging with me in this utter buffoonery but hey! aziraphale and crowley are utter buffoons. so we were laughing about this post and I sent the following:

I’m personally a fan of them making out and slamming into shelves, a book falls on crowley and he’s like ouch wtf and aziraphale says something like “OH NO MY FIRST EDITION SONG OF SOLOMON” and crowley just starts laughing.

more funny silly hijinks.

they finally make it to the bed. music stops they both stop. the bed is COVERED in books. they look at each other aziraphale says “oh you know I’ve never gotten the hang of sleeping” crowley says “and you know I’ve always thought that was ridiculous” snaps his fingers the books vanish. aziraphaledistress.png.

crowley says “relax I just reshelved them downstairs. alphabetically. by the last letter of the last word.” aziraphale says “you ridiculous serpent” and throws him down on the bed. clothes start coming off. crowley goes “ridiculous am I?” aziraphale starts listing other adjectives. the last one is “beloved”. they start kissing again.

cut to insane natural phenomena happening. earthquakes. the kraken bursts out of the ocean. alarms going off in heaven. michael slams her head into her desk. power flickers and goes out all over london. car alarms blaring. maggie and nina exchange a knowing look. gabriel and beelzebub watch in awe from alpha centauri as a wholly new nebula explodes into being in front of them.

cut back to aziraphale and crowley lying in a mess of blankets and feathers looking utterly dumbfounded. aziraphale looks at crowley, besotted, and says “you know dear that was quite nice” crowley groans and starts to protest. aziraphale interrupts by kissing him. oh so gently. crowley says “fine you can have it this time. that was really fucking nice” and wraps his arms around him. soft music plays, camera pans out the window.

utter chaos on whickber street.

and then she said this which i thought was so funny I couldn’t Not add it:

can we please get some actualy good recommendatiions than the shit that is shared all of the time? i have sent so many asks for things and THEY never get answered. Really makes it seem that nobody cares about what the fans want anymore. this isn't even a single occurence because I have talked to other friends in the fandom and they haven't gotten any asks answered either while this has been going on fr months. you can't use the excuse that you don't have the time when it's been long enough.

First and foremost, we would like to offer our sincere apologies. Not just to you, but to our Thiam fan base. We would like to address this and be transparent with all of you.

For a time, we only had one moderator doing the rec lists. Each moderator on the team serves in a different role. We added a second team member to help with rec lists and have been working through a new process to collaborate efficiently.

It was brought to our attention that asks were deleted, drafts went missing, and we agreed that we needed to take steps to make sure this did not happen again. We have spent the past few weeks brainstorming, to create new rules and guidelines for our moderating team to follow, as well as a brand new format for rec lists that we are excited to roll out for all of you. We want to hold ourselves to a higher standard for all of you and have been working toward that.

We sincerely apologize that asks have not been answered in a timely manner, but this new system and changes to our moderating team will ensure that this does not happen in the future. We will be posting several rec lists in the coming days in the new format (please ignore the last rec list, it was incorrectly posted) and we will be answering in a timely fashion from here on out. No ask will go unanswered for longer than a week. That is our promise to you.

For anyone who has felt dismayed, or ignored in the past, please know that as a team, we are ashamed of what happened, and we are doing our very best to make it better, and learn from the mistakes that have been made. We also appreciate that you are holding us accountable. Your feedback is very important to us, and we will never ignore it. We might, in fact, reach out to all of you soon to understand what is working for you, and what your wishes are for our common future.

We have been working hard to offer you a better experience and we are excited to share this with you.

Please note that if you have any questions, or requests about what happened, or about anything concerning the Official Thiam Library, our tumblr ask box is opened, as are our DMs on Discord.
