Nacho's London Adventure

Part One (don't meet your heroes, unless they're Michael Sheen)

So I had fully resigned myself to the fact that I wasn't going to make it to see Nye, but apparently there was a limit to the number of times I could see people raving about it before I snapped and made a ridiculous impulse purchase...

And it couldn't really have turned out better!! The show was absolutely fantastic, really cleverly done and with a brilliant cast! Michael was an absolute dream to watch...and a total sweetheart to meet! He made time for everyone that had waited, and seemed genuinely happy to do so. He was so warm and friendly, and patient with me being an awkward, anxious mess. And that twinkly smile...I may never recover from having it aimed at me in real life!

Dude. Happy for Good Omens fans. Wish I heard about this some way other than Tumblr. I’m excited to watch, but bummed that Destiel had no involvement whatsoever.

This post is less Good Omens- related and more personal, but there's been a lot of arguing over "representation" in the fandom the past few days. The strong feelings people express are awesome but ALSO I really want us in the community to appreciate and listen to one another.

People want to KILL queer people. There are still many, many places where it is not safe to have any identity other than cis het. Fighting that means sticking together, not tearing each OTHER apart. Allosexual, asexual, lesbian, gay, cis, trans, nonbinary, gender queer, GNC... we're all part of this community and we're stronger together.

In Good Omens, Neil Gaiman gave us a glimpse of what a world could be if people got to decide for themselves how to present and who to love without the hate and prejudice that inevitably comes along with that in the real world. I know people are questioning exactly what Crowley and Aziraphale are and how they identify, which is fine (honestly I don't know that we'll ever find out for sure. It may be something private between the two of them). But saying things like "it's homophobic" (for them to be ace), or "it's acephobic" (for them to be gay) sort of defeats the purpose of "it's a love story", doesn't it? At the end of the day, maybe it doesn't matter what EXACTLY they are. They're unapologetically QUEER and their story is for and about all of us.

It's okay to disagree. It's okay to ask questions. I mean, that's the moral of Good Omens, isn't it? We don't have to be the same; we SHOULDN'T all be the same... there's strength and beauty in our differences. But even if we don't all agree with one another, let's support each other.

I see them as gay male coded beings who have chosen that identity for themselves and would enjoy sexual pleasure as much as any other earthly pleasure. If YOU see them as agender or nonbinary sexless entities who are QPR or ace or aroace and would never have sex, I SUPPORT THE HELL OUT OF YOUR RIGHT TO DO SO. I'm in your corner and I will fight for you.

Love you all. Love that we love the ineffable love story of Good Omens, whatever form that takes, and let's lift each other up rather than tearing each other down.

me to my fellow autistic friend who shares the same hyperfocus as me: "Hey that interpretation of yours that I disagreed with you about the other day, I think you might be right actually."

my fellow autistic friend, thinking very loudly: Yes, of course I was right, I have spent every waking moment of every day since this show aired breaking down every facet of it into all of its movable parts, I can see everything. "Haha, yeah"

me, using telepathy: "Listen I'm gonna need you to be more niceys to me ok, my autism does different stuff than yours"

(an aziraphale pov poem)

(some projectful long poetry about good-omens-god i wrote a super long time ago that helped inspire this fic of mine, do you remember hanging up the stars. thanks @jacky-rubou for that one reply 🔥)

(now on ao3)

---

in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth—that is what the humans know.

they tend to leave things out

because it makes it easier for them.

humans like easy.

its easier to praise the mother

than see the children.

its easier to say the skies are the heavens,

God knows all,

and lucifer was little more than a faulty wire.

they always forget the children

the ones with pale wings and burning crowns,

the playthings of the universe,

who know what it is to be.

to hold Time in their hands

to mold Matter like clay

and who know what it is

to

be

nothing.

it is simply Her’s;

Her children

Her heaven

Her earth

Her light.

i never knew if it was my place to correct them

with my golden rings and white linen.

i would think it’d be yours, wearing the ashy feathers and black ink

to say that it was not God who hung every speck in the skies,

but an engineer.

that it was not the divine,

but a brilliant mind not yet held by Time.

and even after the War,

the Fall,

the Beginning,

the Middle,

and even past the End,

it was you.

it was never not you.

innocent hands armed with only a book,

life,

and nothing.

six-thousand years, i said,

but they’re still here, as are we.

you may not have the priests, or the statues, or the murals,

but there are the astronomers, the satellites, and the starcharts.

in a God-loving world, that will have to be enough.

and so i ask you, likely not the last time,

do you remember hanging up the stars?

or will you let them erase you,

let them say Her ideas,

Her Plan,

Her love?

i wouldn’t blame you. you’ve said it before, and i don’t doubt you will again—

i know you.

that angel you knew was not me.

right.

as far as we know, they were Her’s.

Her heavens,

Her earth,

Her skies,

and Her stars.

(they will always forget hell. it is simply easier that way.)

Aug-Kissed 2024 - Kiss Goodnight

This is the final prompt for Aug-Kissed 2024. I hope you enjoyed all my smoochy submissions!

Chocolate Kiss | Aug-Kissed 2024 Repository

to my heart and soul’s delight your lips are soft and feather light upon the smile you’ve made so bright you place a simple kiss goodnight

your lips are soft and feather light and choose to rest on mine despite the unkind words which may alight  when my tense mind is full of fright

upon the smile you've made so bright a song of praise do you invite your soothing words will ever smite the worried frown you overwrite 

you place a simple kiss goodnight and a fire in me does ignite  my kiss back is so impolite you snort and smirk and snuff the light

Hi can I interest anybody in my plans to annihilate a company office party based on this post by @dragonmouth?

This is a really good plan and literally nothing can go wrong.

HOW IS THIS THE SAME MAN

I AM ABSOLUTELY OUT OF MY MIND ABOUT THIS

“you’re too old to be thirsting over middle aged actors” tough shit buckaroo I’m doin it anyway

when you’re a group of two where one is captain of the basketball team and the other is the weird genius student but you’ve finally embraced your true love for singing (and each other) and audition in the call-backs for the school winter musical after winning the basketball championships and the science decathlon, respectively.

here’s a close up or two:

I somehow haven't seen this delicious article cross my timeline yet. Found in the wild this morning while reading the Guardian headlines like the Xennial I am.
