Okay i don’t typically do text posts bc I’m mainly an art person but I’m not gonna lie, the Good Omen fandom coffee theory is just a symptom of a lack of character analysis in regards to Aziraphale imo. In every flashback this season, and even going into the first season, Aziraphale makes it clear that he believes, while some angels are superficial and not truly benevolent, God and Heaven as a whole *is*. Crowley’s reasons for leaving Hell are that they became the worst parts of Heaven, but in Aziraphale’s mind, Crowley leaving Hell was completely logical and simply a product of his 6000 year long reformation, whereas both of them leaving Heaven was a temporary measure until a more established angel (like Metatron) can weed out the “bad apples” inhibiting from his mission, which he believes to be the same as God’s. He is the epitome of a well meaning friend that you only learn years later had been trying to steer your life “out of sin”.

Is Aziraphale a genuinely good and kind person? Yes. But, despite Crowley’s priority having grown to become Aziraphale and his “team”, Aziraphale’s priority has never swayed from the beginning. The woobification lenses were taken off and you’re left with the reality of his character: a flawed man who strives to do good but is so deep in his indoctrination that he cannot leave due to a sunk-cost fallacy. Aziraphale cannot admit he’s wrong because he’s spent his entire existence desperately clinging onto the belief that Crowley’s fall was simply a mistake, that Heaven comprises “the good guys”.

Metatron is suspicious, I agree, but Aziraphale’s character was not out of line with all of the information we were given.

Okay, yes, the ending of season 2 is heartbreaking, I’m very sad, H O W E V E R-

The rest of season two was SO FUCKING GOOD???? Instead of wallowing in desperation, focus on the awesomeness!

Crowley was am archangel! THE archangel! Aziraphale and him met as angels!!! Crowley and Aziraphale have an “I was wrong” dance!! The coloring was amazing! Crowley is a huge softie and Aziraphale loves it!

Please work with me here I’m so close to breaking down I need a season three

So Todd is talking to Neil about how he feels worthless because he’s too anxious to make friends and Neil is basically looking at him softly the entire time trying to convince Todd to have faith in himself. Todd eventually says “there’s nothing you can do so you can just butt out. I can take care of myself just fine” and he looks at Neil desperately because he wants help but needs him to think he’s okay because that’s how he rolls. Neil looks at him with his big gorgeous brown eyes and says “no” and Todd says “what do you mean no” and Neil smiles, shakes his head and says “no” with a smug smile on his face. This whole scene just embodies how Neil spends his time with Todd and devotes his energy to making Todd feel safe and comfortable and loved. The scene makes me GIGGLE.

A little something happy to lighten the vibe in here. Nah but for real this scene makes me kick my feet and scream and giggle.

Not even an analysis just me gushing.

You only feel it when it's lost

Gettin' through still has a cost

Quietly, it slips through your fingers, love

Falling from you drop by drop

It's a big universe. Even if this all ends up in a puddle of burning goo, we can go off together. You know, Alpha Centauri's nice. Always wanted to go there. Couple of decent planets. No nightlife to speak of.

Alpha Centauri is the nearest star system to the Sun, located at a distance of only 4.37 light years or 1.34 parsecs from Earth.

It's also a binary star systern, and a very special one. The two stars in it orbit so closely together that until modern telescopes, we thought they were one star.

Neil is having this lovely, touching interview with Samantha and talking about karlach but while doing so he put on an idle animation of his character Bow'ee badly picking at the guitar with Astarion standing like the had to do it to 'em meme behind her

[ohxdeer]

i’m calling it now, in that episode where crowley disguises himself as an angel and goes to heaven, we’ll get a flashback of pre-fall!crowley (if not a full reveal of how he fell)

So if I don’t get an ending to season three with a cottage in the South Downs I will never ever recover.

I need a small little unassuming cottage surrounded by the most beautiful and well tended gardens with plants that grow unbelievably well, almost by some miracle maybe? But just rows and rows of the most beautiful and most verdant plants in all of England.

Stepping inside it will be just full of beautiful golds and yellows and greys and greens and reds.

There’s a small closet just down the hall that appears to be a coat closet, but when opened is a large library full of rows and rows of books. Whatever book you could ever possibly want can be found in this room. Collections of classics, the rarest books of prophecy, hand written poems seem to have a place on the shelves as well. And drawings. So many sketches and portraits of all the mundane and perfect moments of domestic life. Maybe of a certain demon tending the garden, or drinking wine by candlelight (maybe real, maybe battery operated), or sleeping curled up seemingly in the most uncomfortable position in the armchair, with his legs thrown over the armrests and his hair all flattened to one side (this is the angel’s favorite, though Crowley pretends to hate it).

And in the sitting room there is a large desk, maybe like the one that could be seen at one bookshop in Soho, with a seemingly out of place Magic for Dummies book half opened and a notepad full of notes laying out.

And across, nestled just past the armchair with the demon lazed across it, is the (infamous) love seat definitively from the bookshop in Soho. There are small comfortable windows with a beautiful fireplace nestled between them, though it does not get much regular use, and of course, not very far away and nestled into a corner, is a fire extinguisher always at the ready.

Then as you move further down the hall you’ll see beautiful art along the walls. And places for Crowleys beloved statues.

At the end of the short hallway you’ll find a beautiful kitchen. There is always delicious food and it never goes bad. Always fresh baked bread and tea at the ready, always small sweets and a home cooked meal waiting for friends.

Then down the stairs to the cellar, where is somehow never gets musty, or full of cobwebs, but always has cases of delicious wine and bottles of single malt scotch at the ready.

Then is you travel back up the stairs and to the other end of the small cottage you get to the bedroom.

A beautiful mix of gold and grey, seemingly something that might not go together, but works miraculously for the space. A small cozy and private place.

There are shelves of books and plants all throughout the home, with comfortable rugs and seating as well.

It is a retreat, a Heaven, a home.

And shared by an Angel and Demon who have pined and pained for over 6000 years and deserve the best of it all.

And I want it for them.

I know it's immature but one thing i do not want is for them to end up losing their nature and turning human to "happily" spend the rest of their lives on earth

Like, no matter what happens in the world, i want to know that by canon they are still out there, HAPPILY enjoying their eternity together

I don't like the idea of them having to have an expiration date in order to be able to just fucking be together in peace for as long as they want

I have a sudden urge to read all fluffy snake!Crowley fics on ao3

***MORE SPOILERS***

it’s been several hours since I finished GO S2 and I have hit every stage of grief like each individual stair my skull knocked against when I tumbled down a staircase as a small child, concussing myself to the point of an intense preoccupation with toast

I am onto this fun new, very healthy hobby of pretending this didn’t happen and banning the tag “canon compliant” from my ao3 bookmarks
