#where gabriel is the principal

[dyketennant]

now that i got my sad stuff out of my system i’m going to write a human au where crowley is a puppeteer and aziraphale is an elementary school teacher/librarian

[beastsovrevelation]

If it isn't my beloved celestial harpy, most holy Michael the Archangel herself (meaning, I turned this into proper line-art). ⚔ Good Omens has insulted her, but she will always be Supreme Commander of the Heavenly Host in my mind, and in my fics. I can only try to do her justice.

What do you think, should I colour it? It almost looks like a colouring page, I'm tempted to print it, and colour it with pencils or markers. ✏

[slashingdisneypasta]

Principal Kingston is sitting at one of the long tables, flipping through a copy of Sports Illustrated. He looks up as the doors close behind me.

"Our little roach girl! Come in, come in. Mr Gabriel's finishing up in the back. Have a seat!" He indicates the chair across from him.

I sit and look at him warily.

"I have to say, I was surprised when Mr. Gabriel told me about your offer," he says, leaning forward over his magazine. "But I think it's fantastic that you're able to see the big picture here. Thinking outside the box and all that. And even if your reasons are a little misguided, I am happy to be doing business with you. People so rarely consider alliances with their enemies to reach the greater goal these days. It's a shame, really." He shakes his head, apparently at the shame of it all. "So! How are your classes going?"

Hi Mr. Gaiman! I hope you're doing well! :)

I've tried to find an answer for this, but I couldn't find anything. In the scene where Aziraphale reads Agnes Nutter's book in season one, this scene specifically:

She calls him "foolish principalitee." If I'm not mistaken, principalities are stronger than archangels, correct?

Unless I have the information wrong—wouldn't that make Aziraphale stronger than say, Gabriel or Michael?

Hi, this is in the FAQs.

[sherokutakari]

Okay okay okay but like

Everyone out here talking about Crowley's hinted at memory problems. How he remembers Heaven and making the stars, but not working with Saraqael. How he remembers going into battle, but not with Furfur. How he doesn't seem to remember Aziraphale in Eden, even though it turns out they met at the Pillars of Creation. How he knows what it's like, looking where the furniture isn't. Memory fussing. Clearly something Heaven Does.

But no one is talking about that Heaven's memory wiping was only mentioned once directly. And only in reference to Gabriel, who was explicitly not being cast down to Hell, but demoted.

Like some Cherub-turned-Principality, which could be either a promotion or demotion, depending on what Angelic Hierarchy you subscribe to?¹

What if the reason Crowley and Aziraphale's meeting in Eden seemed so first-meeting-ish not just because only Crowley's memory was messed with?

What if Aziraphale's memories had been also?

Neil said that these two had known each other for a LONG time between the s2 meet cute and the beginning of actual time/their meeting in Eden.² Surely Crowley would have given his name at SOME point if that were the case. And we know Aziraphale had a hard time switching from Crawly to Crowley, so even if he assumed his newly Fallen friend had intended to choose a new name, there's almost no way he *wouldn't* have just called him by whatever name he already knew him as. Why does he wait for Crawly to introduce himself, instead of just referring to him as Raphael, or Baraqiel, or Kokabiel, or Jophiel or whatever your favorite Proto-Crowley Angel Name is? And why does it seem like they don't even know each other, even a little bit?

What if they knew each other super well in Heaven, and after the Battle, both had their memories mucked about in, and both got Demoted??

What if in Eden they were meeting for the first time again, and they still ended up choosing each other over Heaven and Hell????

What if nothing the powers of Heaven and Hell can do can keep these two Inefffable Idiots apart????

Please help I'm .__o.>-<

I have something that has been banging around in my head related to Crowley’s apparent loss of memory. This is probably not original but I haven’t seen it articulated quite this way so I’m just going to write it out. Crowley has a few interactions with Gabriel where he is trying to remember things that Heaven “erased”. On one occasion Gabriel says - “I can’t” and Crowley says “Yes you can” with certainty. Another time, Gabriel says “It hurts” and Crowley says, “I know, do it anyway.” I have THINGS TO SAY about this below the cut.

I think we can take it as given that Crowley has had his memory erased by Heaven, as evidenced by him not remembering Furfur or Saraqael or why they decided to have gravity. If it was one thing, I would buy it as a throwaway but the lack of memory is so specifically and repeatedly called out that I don’t think we can take it as a coincidence.

It’s equally clear to me that he hasn’t forgotten EVERYTHING about his time as an angel. He remembers that he worked on a specific nebula in S1, he remembers going into battle, he knows that if he gets into Heaven he’ll be able to access top secret files. And you cannot convince me that he doesn’t remember Aziraphale in Eden. Aziraphale doesn’t know his *demon* name, so Crowley introduces himself, but Aziraphale never does the same because Crowley already knows who he is.

SO I have made the mental leap to conclude the following - Crowley had his memory wiped by Heaven when he fell, he remembered nothing just like Gabriel, and he FORCED himself to remember some parts of his time in Heaven. Meaning, he tried hard to remember, it *hurt* and he *did it anyway*. I like to imagine that he did so because he wanted to know who he was (which of course is reason enough) but also because he wanted very much to remember a friendship with a certain Principality.

When Gabriel had his memory wiped, he still knew he needed to get to Beelzebub. I believe that when Crowley had his memory wiped, he still knew he needed to get to Aziraphale. So he went through a lot of pain to claw back some of his memory. He didn’t get everything back, but he got something. We know Heaven didn’t wipe the memories of all the Fallen, so Crowley’s memory was probably erased (or I would argue ‘suppressed’ is more accurate because the memory is still there, he just can’t access it readily) because he was high ranking, but also because he *knew or saw something specific and significant*.

Upshot is, I now desperately need a fic that features Crowley fighting to remember himself. Does this exist?? Do I need to write it?? Anybody else have this train of thought?

[queenofthearchipelago]

My favorite theory coming out of good omens this season is that Aziraphale MADE the humans in much the same way that Crowley made the stars.

The evidence I've gathered so far is this:

In the creation scene, Aziraphale gets excited about the "peo-ple" he says "WE'RE currently designing." The word choice is important because in other sentences he talks about Heaven in a "they" sort of way. "They're talking about ending this all in 6,000 years." "When they roll out that section, that's where Earth will be." But designing humans? That's a WE thing. Like, he's doing it too.

His artistic ability to draw Gabriel. To design people, I imagine he would have spent a lot of time drawing people, and his portrait of Gabriel was incredibly good and he drew it so casually. Like it was second nature to him.

This would all explain why Aziraphale has this deep need to protect people. It feels exactly the same as angel Crowley's deep need to protect the universe and his nebula. It also explains Aziraphale's compassion towards humans even though no other angel had such interest in them. Aziraphale loves human life and Crowley gives him the permission he needs to actually enjoy it.

Humans, even in the bible, are made of dust. What if it was Aziraphale that took stardust and did the miracle that made Adam?

God gave Aziraphale the flaming sword to protect Eden. Assuming that Adam was created by Aziraphale, it makes sense that the Almighty wanted Aziraphale to protect the new creation.

There's probably more. I would love to hear people's thoughts on this! I just think it would make sense in a Mother Earth and Father Time kind of way, Crowley created the universe and Aziraphale created humanity within it. Two creations that need each other to make sense and have a purpose.

Also, I already anticipate that someone will reply saying that Aziraphale isn't an archangel Before the Beginning and wouldn't have the power. I raise you that being a Principality is no small role for an angel in the good omens universe. It's the level right under archangel, as Neil has said before here on tumblr.

[aziraphales-library]

Hi! 👋

Do you know if there are any soldier or warrion Aziraphale fics around? The concept is he was a soldier prefall due to how in the tv show Aziraphale hints sometimes that he fought in the war.

Possibly ones where nobody knows/hid how powerful and strong he actually is until something happens and he has to reveal it.

The only fic I could find was "Being Gentle" by "Sodium_Azide" but I would like to read more if there are others.

Thanks a bunch! ❤️

Hey! Here are some soldier Aziraphale fics...

Lucky Shot by wyrmy (M)

Crowley makes a few discoveries about Aziraphale's natural physical abilities and starts having ideas about things they might get up to together in the bedroom.

Soldier by lalaland666 (G)

Aziraphale was a soldier. A platoon leader, even. He’d fought in the War, in the Rebellion, and he’d been good at it. Good at fighting. Good at killing. That didn’t mean he had liked it.

Hang up your ensign, let your drums be still by hapax (T)

“I am here,” the Quartermaster said sternly, “about your regimentals.” Aziraphale, regrettably, gaped. “My what?” “Your regimentals, soldier! Or perhaps I should say ex-soldier!” A disgusted sniff. “Deserter, traitor, whatever you like. I’m here to strip you of uniform, rank, insignia, command, any connection whatsoever to the Host of Heaven.” When Heaven restores one of Aziraphale’s repressed memories of the War of the Rebellion, it threatens to destroy the tentative relationship he has begun to forge post-Notpocalypse with his hereditary enemy.

Aim Your Arrow at the Sky by SilverMirror12 (T)

“Aziraphale, they want to kill you!” “Oh good.” Aziraphale turned to look over the horizon Gabriel and Sandalphon had been thrown beyond. “It’s always nice to be on the same page.”

Who Dares, Wins by Santillatron (M)

Aziraphale is an officer in the British Army. He hears about a fellow Brit captured somewhere he shouldn't have been, who is being kept far behind enemy lines and is apparently holding up miraculously well against the German methods of persuasion. He absconds to rescue him accompanied by a small band of men who decide to tag along, and the rest, as they say, is history...

Saunter a Mile in my Shoes by LoveLettersUnsent (T)

In War there are no winners, only losers. It was an eternity ago but Aziraphale and Crowley were shaped by their actions in the First War. They're about to learn first hand what the other did that fateful day - a secret neither has told the other in over 6000 years. Adam was just trying to help, but you know what they say about good intentions... The question is will their friendship survive it? Or will it burn like sulfur for something new to grow in its place? Welcome to the Start times...

And the one you mentioned...

Being Gentle by Sodium_Azide (M)

Principalities are built for war. Only for war. However, as bewildering as it may be, on Earth sometimes peace breaks out. He felt like a siege catapult attempting to skip pebbles on a pond. Aziraphale, a very gentle angel created to defend Eden against all of the horrible might of Hell, does his very best to be soft.

- Mod D

[dreams-shape-the-world]

There has been some debate out there regarding what type of angel Crowley was before the fall. Some have speculated that he was a minor angel, that knew a bit of this and that, which is what landed him in the spot that he is in right now.

After a bit of research, I have come to the conclusion that Crowley was a Virtue. Everything that I have read points to him being, at one point, in the Third Tier in angel hierarchy, with Powers and Dominions. This actually puts him above Aziraphale, in which he is a Principality.

Let's delve into what a Virtue does in the grand scheme of things. One of their primary goals is, well, to run the universe, control the elements, seasons and command storms. But also, they assist in making miracles for HER, a bit on that part later.

When see Crowley, he is sent to start the universe, this is his role as Virtue. But he not only starts the engine, he oversees the entirety of it, the planets, stars, everything. That is why he so upset when he was told that it all has to be destroyed, he was the one, or at least part, that helped create it and supposed to maintain it.

We see him here, manipulating rain to make Maggie and Nina get together, the "dawn of a new awing" , as he said. He hasn't controlled the weather in a long time, but it comes back to him naturally. This is because that is part of who he is and what he does.

Finally, the miracle to hide Gabriel. Aziraphale suggests, half a miracle from each would be fine, so Crowley goes along with it. I think the mistake was that I don't think Crowley is capable of doing just half a miracle. Yes, we have seen him do minor things, but what they are attempting is out of the ordinary. Aziraphale is able to do his half miracle, but I don't think Crowley is wired to do that. I thought for the longest time it went wrong because there were under the symbol that Aziraphale uses to contact the Metraton, but now, looking over this, I think it was because Crowley was a Virtue Angel. Part of their role is to help create miracles for HER, a direct mandate from HER to do this, so yea, SHE isn't doing any half miracles for humankind.

I also think that it puts into perspective how close to HER he was, since we know how much his "sauntered" from grace affected him. He was part of the engine, and was supposed to be its caretaker, if I am correct in his being a Virtue, I am truly saddened because they took away one of things that he cared for, the universe. For all I know I am way off base with this, but it has been fun seeing where this lead me and adding to the other theories out there.

au where marinette's parents own a small, struggling, but community-loved bakery outside of paris. she works after school and on weekends since her parents can't currently afford to hire any other employees, but she enjoys getting to know everyone in her neighborhood and uses her tip money to fund her sewing projects.

as the end of her junior high days approach, marinette is encouraged by her parents to apply to her dream high school, françoise dupont lycée of the arts, as a fashion student. she doesn't expect to actually get accepted, but knows her parents are right when they say there's no hurt in trying. after submitting her online store portfolio, where she does commissions and launches small projects like accessories, she receives feedback that the school board was beyond impressed with her work and would like to offer her a full-ride scholarship.

although it's hard for her to part from her parents for the first time in her life, they refuse to let her turn down the opportunity and practically pack her bags for her. after a very long and painful goodbye with lots of promises to call every single day, marinette leaves for paris.

she meets alya, her roommate and first friend at her new school. she's the daughter of a successful chef and is a promising journalist and creative writing student, she and marinette share many of their core subjects not relating to their majors.

marinette also meets chloé, the daughter of the mayor of france and alya's life-long enemy. the two go way back, with alya's mother being an old friend of chloe's father and having worked at his hotel restaurant before. the hate each other, and by association, chloé hates marinette — especially after finding out marinette is a fellow fashion major whose work scored much higher than her own.

then she meets adrien. adrien is a fellow fashion and modeling student who was eagerly accepted into the school despite his very late application. however, the principal was thrilled at the idea of having such a beloved model joining the student body, and didn't want to deal with chloé's threats of action if adrien was denied, so he was accepted with open arms.

adrien didn't exactly choose his majors, but rather just went along with what was expected of him. he already had a successful modeling career, so he took the classes despite there being little he didn't already know and have mastered. he was encouraged to join fashion classes as well, both by adults who assumed he was going to take after his father and by his best friend who wanted to spend as much time with him as possible.

adrien is easily impressed with just about every design marinette crafts and marinette admits it's a bit endearing the way adrien struggles to figure out where the sewing machine's on switch is. his father is equally impressed, if not even more so, and marinette is asked to become a paid intern upon winning a contest judged by gabriel agreste.

not to mention the kind old man she befriends, an older chinese man who owns a tea shop in petite asie. marinette admits to feeling a bit alienated without her mother, worried her classmates will look at her funny for cooking guangxi rice in the dorm kitchen or having late night gossip sessions on the phone in mandarin. he tells marinette she will always have a friend while in paris and that she's more connected to the city than she thinks.

eventually, marinette even finds herself befriending almost all of her classmates, and even one of her classmate's brothers. juleka couffaine is a modeling major and a fellow scholarship student, something she and marinette bond over. luka is just as sweet as his sister, and almost as quiet if you ignore his constant humming and guitar strumming.

he also applied to be a music major at françoise dupont, but was rejected. after a year of struggling and being bullied in public school, he dropped out to focus on working and supporting his family — taking some of the burden away from his single mother and making sure juleka never has to go without. throughout the course of their relationship, marinette is eventually able to discover the ridiculous reasons why luka wasn't accepted and encourages him to go back to school, as well as accept that he can't support his family if he doesn't let them support him as well (a lesson she also had to learn).

Show recommendation

Found

If some of you want to watch a show with a queer character, I just watched the show Found, the second season is still airing and it was renewed for a third.

Synopsis: "Gabrielle "Gabi" Mosely, a public relations specialist and crisis manager, works alongside her team of associates to find missing people who have been overlooked by the system. Her team of experts consists of those who have either been kidnapped themselves or have a loved one that has been kidnapped. A kidnapping victim herself as a teenage girl, Gabi later secretly kidnaps the man who abducted her, Hugh "Sir" Evans, as revenge and keeps him locked up in her basement. Gabi uses Sir's knowledge as a kidnapper and criminal to help her solve cases."

The queer character is one of the main characters but his queerness is not (for now) one of the principal subjects of the show, we just see and hear about his husband and their personal issues.

He's played by Karan Oberoi who played Noah in Roswell new Mexico.

The entire cast is diverse and the cases they help resolve are too.

The main character is played by Shanola Hampton who played Veronica in shameless.

There is also Gabrielle Walsh who played Ana Flores in 911 and of course other well known actors.

If you like procedural drama where it's 1 case/episode but they also talk about their characters' personnal drama and one of them is queer, then I highly recommend it, I really enjoy it 👌🏻

• During the first school assembly outdoors at night, Capri, the new Vice Principal, introduces Barry Dort, the newly appointed principal of Nevermore. Dort is a very polarising figure in the Outcast community due to his Magneto-style feelings towards Outcast–Normie interactions.

• Back at Nevermore, Wednesday starts taking music lessons under the tutorship of a wise, elderly Nevermore professor.

• Dort continues to implement his new changes which causes a divide amongst the student body. There is skepticism in both Gomez and Morticia over Dort’s reforms. Though the board is still loyal to him.

CHAPTER III: “Here She Woes.”

• The students are all assigned to go on a camping retreat at Camp Jericho, which has just been booked out for Outcasts only that weekend.

• Enid helps her in her investigation, but she soon becomes distracted by her growing relationship with Maxim.

• Wednesday gets a letter, summoning her to meet her grandmother at her estate. When she is granted permission to leave by Dort, he gives a subtle remark about her grandmother which indicates he knows her. The remark leaves Wednesday somewhat confused.

• Uncle Fester arrive at Nevermore to visit the family much to the delight of Gomez and Pugsley.

• At Grandmama’s estate, Wednesday learns from her that she and Dort have a contentious history together. Grandmama was a former mentor of Dort and were good friends, but the emergence of his radical views following his wife’s death led to their estrangement.

• Wednesday learns through her grandmother that Dort’s wife was killed by Normies, hence his distrust and superiority complex over them.

• Dort attempts to bring Maxim into his plans by reminding him of his late mother and her legacy. Maxim, who sees this as an opportunity to prove himself to his father, begins to repeat some of his radical views which disturb Enid.

• Dort then learns of Grandmama’s presence at Nevermore and taunts her. She in turn gives him a chilling warning to him about messing with the Addams Family and to not underestimate Wednesday.

• Wednesday learns about the bruises Maxim gave Enid and tells her to end things with him at once. Enid gets angry at Wednesday and tells her that if she had comforted her and been there for her after her breakup with Ajax instead of putting up her stoic walls, then she wouldn’t have sought out that comfort in Maxim since he was the only one who offered it.

CHAPTER V: “Oh Hell Woe.”

• After her fight with Enid, Wednesday decides to pause her investigation on the Dorts and look into something new to keep her distracted.

• Thing offers her a missing person’s case that went cold the previous year. The missing person is a local Jericho resident.

• Enid decides to break up with Maxim. Meeting him in the Nightshades Library, she tells him that their relationship is over and that she doesn’t like how toxic he has been to her.

• Maxim becomes shocked and thinks it’s a joke. He angrily tells Enid that they are not over. She responds that they are and attempts to leave, but Maxim grabs her and prevents from leaving, causing her to use her claws to scratch his face. Maxim curses Enid as she runs off.

• Bianca notices Enid and comforts her.

• Sneaking into Jericho, Wednesday approaches Santiago and offers to look into the case, but Santiago brushes her off and doubts her abilities to get further than what the police could last year, but Wednesday reminds Santiago that her investigating prowess is what helped her figure out that both Tyler and Laurel Gates were responsible for the murders that took place last year. After hearing this, Santiago reluctantly allows her to have the missing person case files.

• Returning to Nevermore, Wednesday learns from Bianca about what happened between Enid and Maxim. Wednesday finds an emotionally upset Enid in their dorm. Wednesday reconciles with he by giving her a meaningful hug. Wednesday offers to go after Maxim in retaliation, but Enid declines wanting that, citing the principal as his dad.

• At Willow Hill, Gabrielle visits Tyler and offers to secure his freedom if he agrees to help her and Morning Song with their plans against Nevermore. Tyler is tempted by the offer to go up against Nevermore, but is not trustful of Gabrielle and her intentions.

Tyler has no qualms about Karloff becoming his new master as he trusts him fully.

• Karloff tells Gabrielle to leave as he wants Tyler to have no part in what she is planning. Karloff instead wants to focus Tyler on their own agenda.

• Maxim uses his popularity and influence to turn the student body against Enid and anyone closely associated with her, including Wednesday and Bianca.

• Morticia confronts Dort over Maxim’s behaviour, but he retorts that he has been lenient with Wednesday and her behaviour. He threatens to take further action against her if Morticia gets involved in the affairs involving Maxim.

• However, knowing that Wednesday and her friend group have been ostracised, Dort uses this as an opportunity to offer a new alliance to Wednesday.

• He dedicates an assembly ceremony to her by commemorating her actions in saving the school last year.

• Wednesday sees through the ploy and in a defiant display of rebellion, burns the poster in front of the whole school much to Dort and Maxim’s anger.

• Tyler continues to grow closer to Karloff, and they both bond over their dark desires. Tyler opens up to him about Laurel. He resents her for using him, but admits that he was the only one who cared for him and gave him any proper attention, unlike his dad.

• Returning to her investigation on the missing person. Wednesday learns that the last person to see her alive was someone who was a former patient at Willow Hill and resided in the same ward as Tyler.

Reality

As Nino lays out his plan for targeting Gabriel, Alya points out one thing. “Sure I know Ladybug can fix the mess an akuma causes. But Gabriel will still be mad. He already doesn’t like you, Nino. Don’t push it. For all we know, Gabriel might threaten to transfer Adrien to a different school. Remember, he totally lost it when Adrien lost his book?”

Nino: oh…right. I didn’t think of that. Then, who do we target?

Marinette grins sneakily. “I know someone who can get upset very easily.”

Adrien: really, who?

Marinette: i don’t want to spoil the surprise.

Later, as the parent-teacher meeting commenced, Marinette bursts in, “Oh, I’m so sorry to barge in like this. But I forgot I needed Mrs Rossi’s signature for Lila’s trip to Achu.”

Caline: Marinette, can’t this wait?

Mrs Rossi: what trip to Achu?

Caline and Marinette look at her. “You know, the trip she’s taking to join Prince Ali in teaching children for free. It’s such a shame that she won’t be able to attend the school’s weeklong camping trip but it’s for a good cause.

Mrs Rossi stands up. “My daughter is doing what?”

Caline: why are you so surprised, Mrs Rossi? Lila went to Achu for months less than a week after she joined Dupont.

Mrs Rossi: she told me the school was shut down from akuma attacks!

Marinette pretended to look faint. “Oh no, was it because of her special lying disease?”

Mr Cesaire looked skeptical. “A lying disease…? Do you mean compulsive lying?”

Gabriel almost regretted not being able to akumatize Mrs Rossi, if only to make up for losing Lila Rossi as a spy since clearly Alliance can no longer use her. Oh well, there’s always the fallout when her sheep find out.

Alya and Nino were recording this with open mouths. Adrien wasn’t so bothered by this after seeing more of Lila’s hateful personality.

Needless to say, the parent-teacher conference was delayed as Sabine then angrily wanted justice for her daughter if she was indeed framed by a liar. Gabriel had to admit the teaching faculty here was lousy to fall for Lila’s reception, but that’s what makes this place so prime for his akumas! Why did he send Adrien here again? Oh right, it’s the most prestigious school and he’ll never hear the end of it from Andre because Chloe would never accept his perfect son being in another school away from her.

Later, after Marinette received an apology from Mrs Rossi, she agreed to bring Lila up. Alya and Nino looked apologetic. “We’re so sorry we didn’t believe you.”

Marinette looked behind her. “It’s ok. Keep recording. If Mrs Rossi isn’t angry enough to attract an akuma, her daughter will be. Nothing akumatizes Lila like being caught.”

Lila was immediately suspicious when Marinette of all people came to get her, however it was subdued by Marinette’s poorly hidden dislike and the fact that it was Gabriel who asked her to come.

Certain that Mr Agreste wanted her help against a stupid boy’s resistance team, she agreed.

Boy was Lila surprised to see Sabine and her mother standing in front of the classroom instead of Mr Agreste, who looked disappointed in her.

Uh oh. Now Lila could see Marinette’s triumphant face and could see what had happened. Her one consolation was that the team’s plan to anger a parent into akumatization had failed. Though she was also irked she couldn’t get akumatized and make that loser suffer for exposing her like this. This is worse than Ladybug’s exposing her in front of Adrien!

As Lila was dragged by her mother to the principal’s office, Caline tried to resume the parent-teacher conference though it was clear all now felt disheartened by her incompetence.

The resistance was confused. Angry Rossis and disappointed parents were around. Where was the akuma?

Eventually they had to give up. What a waste of free period.

Not entirely a waste though since Lila was now exposed. Alya sent the recording to the whole class as the parents left.

Outraged gasps were heard everywhere.

Nino: why didn’t you wait till class was about to start? Then we could prepare to record the akumatization.

Adrien: if Monarch didn’t come out for Mrs Rossi and Lila, I doubt he’ll come for-

Reverser promptly swooped by, ready to turn Lila nice and honest.

Adrien: never mind.

Marc was deakumatized and the class apologized to Marinette for not believing her.

Lila returned to class, sulky in her forced apology, not really bothered by their angry reactions now that she was expelled. Only Marinette’s smug attitude infuriated her. Having been forced honest by Reverser, she had confessed to having duped two other women into being her mothers and had initially planned on running away to join one of them. Her mother now has their numbers. It was a nightmare.

Alya: who else can we akumatize for the greater good? Mayor Bourgeois?

Marinette: I don’t think our plan works if we our expected target isn’t even akumatized. We’ll have to think of something else.

Monarch is disappointed he won’t get to akumatize the akuma class again for a while. Ah well, it can be a favor to Adrien.

Okay, but, like.

What if Aziraphale doesn't fail, in Heaven?

I mean the Archangels are pretty much all dicks, but how many more angels are like Muriel?

How many of them are like Aziraphale? Passed over, abused, ignored as just a cog of a war machine. Maybe the angel who was in charge of coloring buttercups wants to see how they turned out, but they're stuck in detailing flaming swords. Maybe the scrivener who is in charge of detailing this one tiny war in Russia really wants to get into the history of Harriet Tubman instead? Archangels, thrones, cherubim, virtues, seraphim - they're the management of Heaven but they're all obsessed 1) beating Hell and 2) who is in charge when they beat Hell.

The principalities, the scriveners, the lower-level angels ... maybe all they want is to check out this Earth that they've all heard of and maybe visited once or twice, but not recently. But no, they can't, they gotta gear up for the Second Coming but wait, they don't because Gabriel said no. Then Gabriel got banished - er - escaped? No one's sure. THEN they find out they're getting a new Supreme Archangel and it's ... Aziraphale. Principality of the Eastern Gate, holder of a Flaming Sword and Traitor and they're all like - okay? Guess you can disobey orders and still get promoted, cool cool. Muriel's down on Earth now so hey! Maybe we can go! And they meet Aziraphale! And Aziraphale is So Nice! And no one knows why the Archangels are such assholes but Aziraphale is awesome and wants them to take regular breaks and tea-times and of course everyone should have a chance to see Earth, it's lovely. So why have a Second Coming when you can have crepes instead? Or tea. Delightful tea. Now, the lower level angels probably outnumber the higher level angels three-to-one. So are they going to be following the arsehole middle management angels who are trying to get them all killed at the end of a demon's claws, OR are they going to follow this Supreme Archangel who told them all about Shakespeare and Bentleys and the Ritz and yellow flowers and how much the demon Crowley has been misunderstood, and maybe, JUST MAYBE, God wants something different. Then there's Aziraphale leading the New Revolution in Heaven?? And this is where he needs Crowley because frankly he's got Aziraphale's Army of Misfit Angels, and he has got no idea what to do with it. And Crowley is confronted with Aziraphale and like a few thousand baby angels outside his flat and he's like, 'Well okay I guess I should have figured things were going to go pear-shaped but not like this?' and Muriel is overjoyed because their not-so-divorced parents brought all their siblings to visit.

Then Crowley and Aziraphale are forced to talk about angel-care and who is going to teach them about music and 'Hey, I think we should talk, really talk' and no apology dances but just sincere apologies and thanks and maybe kissing? I'd be down.

And that's how Aziraphale wins. By taking lower Heaven on an extended sabbatical to Earth and asking Crowley to co-parent.

[st4rry-sp1d3r]

I would like to say something about heaven's hierarchy in helluva boss and hazbin hotel. Like,I've made some research (I'm going by the Christian hierarchy from the Chatolic Christian bible) and like.

God on top,clearly

Then Lucifer,the most glorious angel god ever made

Then we have our Archangels: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael,Uriel,Raguel,Remiel and Sariel guardian angels of nations

Seraphim,the burning ones,with the task of taking care of god's throne and worshipping him 24/7

Cherubim, they guard the way to the tree of life and God's throne and there was a huge misunderstanding with Putti,those chubby babies usually associated with cupid,while cherubims have four feet,a lion body with oxen feet and four faces (man,ox,lion or eagle)

Thrones. Those wheel things with wings and eyes, they carry god's throne

Domions/lordship. They look like humans and keep lower angels in line

Virtues/strongholds they carry out miracles and heavenly signs

Powers/authorities just like their name,these angels have enough power to be warriors and carry out wars against angels

Principalities. They deliver heavens blessings

archangels. The use of the capital letter is important here because archangels and angels are the lowest choir of angels,but these gud have higher status in comparison to angels

Finally angels are the lowest rank of all heaven and are those in most contact with living beings on earth and are meant to serve humanity

I have so many pet peeves with this hierarchy in front of my eyes because first if all,it should have been imps vs angels in that episode with the rich bastard who wanted to die in helluva boss,second of all,where did god go? Where did the archangels go? Where are they? Also the plural of cherub is cherubim but of course Viv wouldn't think about that because otherwhise it wouldn't rhyme with that stupid song. I guess it's all for now then.

If there's something you'd like to add I'm more than happy to hear it <3

[immaturityofthomasastruc]

The episode where they expose Lila is so wrong for all the worst reasons. I'll explain why.

... Let's begin with the fact that Marinette somehow was allowed to block a perfectly functional bathroom of her school, and build another one without an actual need, that alone should have costed the school a considerable amount of money that could have been used for something better than to spy on 3 little girls.

... Which is another problem entirely, because are you telling me that the school's principal, a grown ADULT, actually aproved to build a bathroom with a fake mirror and microphones, in order to SPY on MINORS?

If any parent found out about something like THAT, they would go FERAL on that principal for good reasons.

I am sorry, but I don't see "Marinette finally exposed the lying Lila and finally got the justice she deserved. Hooray!" here, all I see is an ensured national scandal of sexual harrasment at best.

And considering the fact that Adrien Agreste, world-wide celebrity, who can't go around without being chased by a mob of fans, attends this same school... Let me ask, what would stop Gabriel from thinking this could be happening in the boy's bathroom too? He would turn that bullshit into an international shitshow. (And actually have a good reason to remove Adrien from that school while he is at it!)

And that's only Gabriel, which wouldn't be necessary, because André or Audrey should have done that, becuase the mayor's daughter, THEIR DAUGHTER was literally in that bathroom being recorded!

Perhaps I am overthinking this, but I am amazed by how Thomas keeps repeating the "It's a kid's show!" excuse for his writing, but doesn't see how not only this is the most unrealistic, dumbest, shittiest way possible to expose Lila, but also has very serious implications, that would make ANY parent raise eyerbow. On what world is this okay for a kid's show?!

The writers could have had Marinette spy on Lila and Chloe literally anywhere that isn't the bathroom, but consider this: This was part of their final draft, which implies that there were other ideas that were either better or worse than what we got.

Of all the episodes that I want to see the rejected scripts for, "Confrontation" is near the top of the list, just so I can learn what the thought process was there.
