It didn't occur to me until the other day..

that Moxxie has been doing that paperwork for over a month!

[vi-misky-ji]

Stop this is amazing haha

that’s how you write a headline

Ūropi (Europe)

Ūropi, also known by its indigenous name “Europe”, meaning “wide-gazing” or “broad of aspect”, is a small continent first discovered in 1806 by Moehanga of Ngāpuhi, although indigenous Europeans had been living there for many thousands of years. Modern researchers believe the indigenous Europeans originally migrated from the Middle East, and over time split into separate tribes or “kingdoms,” with many retaining their ancient rangatira (called “monarchs” or “nobility”) to this day.

While many see Ūropi as timeless and exotic, indigenous Europeans have actually adapted well to the modern economy, often exporting cultural products like baguettes and vodka, the former of which may be recognisable as the basis for bánh mì.

I am becoming aware of the effect a lack of trust in the media has had on people, paired with a dearth of research skills.

[vi-misky-ji]

is this anything

[vi-misky-ji]

Blitzø calls him Sotls bc he stols his heart

[vi-misky-ji]

The "Stolas is gonna die" theories are without a doubt the theories I hate most, because Stolas dying just means I'm gonna stop watching the show immidiately. And even if a theory includes it not happening until the final episode, nothing ruins a show more than a bad ending.

I'm just happy Viv debunked this by saying she feels like killing off a main character in HB makes all the development they went through feel pointless. Which she is 100% correct in. Stolas already suffered his entire life, including being suicidal, and is finally fighting for a better one. Just killing him off would make his entire journey feel like wasted time.

In defense of Blitzo not telling Stolas about Striker...

During the Harvest Moon Festival, Striker initially presented himself as a cool guy with upwardly-mobile ambitions similar to Blitzo's.

When he's discovered with the Angelic Sniper-Rifle, he speaks of Revolutionary ambitions, of upending Hell's hierarchies via "Killing the Unkillable" with his magic gun.

.

When the I.M.P crew run him off, THEY leave with Angelic Sniper Rifle!

-They have no reason to believe Striker has more than one Angelic weapon.

-Through their professional experience and Moxxie's particular interest in guns, ammo, & arms-dealing, they'd know JUST HOW HARD IT IS for a Wrathian Imp Assassin-- even a very well paid one-- to acquire that kind of fire-power.

-Therefore, they have no reason to think he could get more Holy Bullets by himself any time soon.

-IF they found out that Striker was HIRED to kill Prince Stolas,*specifically*-- and not just a well-armed radical going after the first Royal to come within easy striking range-- they probably wouldn't expect a Client to say:

"I know you failed to kill the Target, AND lost the Very Expensive Angelic Gun; HOWEVER I have decided to give you a second chance AND more Angelic Weapons. Instead of killing you to punish failure & keep you quiet, and hiring some OTHER assassins, of which there are MANY in Wrath alone!"

.

Without the Angelic Sniper-Rifle, Blitzo could probably tell himself that Striker wasn't any more of a threat than the random muggers and imps armed with tridents and pocket-knives from Loo-Loo Land. And Stolas could handle THOSE guys just fine, with or without his Bodyguard's help.

*rocks back and forth in a corner* there HAS TO BE a kiss scene between Blitz and Stolas before this season ends. All I want is there to be a dramatic kiss moment between them.

Exhibit A of what we have been deprived of:

[vi-misky-ji]

I also saw somewhere saying that he couldn't bring himself to hurt Stolas, even symbolically, and that's why he had Loona do it instead. Maybe he thought that that brought the people he hurt comfort, so maybe it could work for him too.

Something I saw pretty often when we all saw this scene is the opinion that went something like this, 'Part of the reason why Blitz isn't burning the taxidermy owls himself is because of the circus fire.', and that is 100% a valid opinion to have, I just don't think it's as closely related to the circus fire as you all think it is.

What I do think it's more closely related to however, is the anti-Blitzo party.

The people at the party literally burned a Blitzo plushie at the stake, which I'd like to remind you that this happened a month ago.

We know that Stolas is an owl, and Blitz purchased taxidermy owls as well, and by now you should see the similarities between the two events, in a way, it's basically burning replicas and such of Stolas, something we also see happen with the Blitzo plushie in Apology Tour.

A scene in Apology Tour also pretty nicely answers the question of, 'why does Blitz not burn the taxidermy owls himself, why is he making Loona do it?'.

Just look at Blitz's reaction to the hanging doll here, look at his reaction to the rabid violence happening against replicas and such of him at the party. It's pretty clear to me that Blitz is at minimum a bit disturbed by all of this going on at the party, which to me, answers that question I mentioned earlier, because based on his reaction there to the hanging doll of himself, and the fact there's a quite obvious similarity between what he's making Loona do and the party, it makes quite a lot of sense to me why Blitz didn't burn the taxidermy owls himself.

To reiterate, the circus fire is most likely a part of the reason why Blitz didn't burn the taxidermy owls himself, I'm not denying that. However, I feel like it's more closely related to the Apology Tour party for the reasons I just mentioned, plus I'd just like to mention that a few of the events of that party did also come up in ghostfuckers when Ronaldo was torturing Blitz in his mind, and I just like that fact is worth mentioning here.

Buying you time

[vi-misky-ji]

things show only fans might not know and that upsets me

crowley:

in the book, when aziraphale suffocates the dove at warlock’s party, it’s CROWLEY who takes it from him and resurrects it (i’m forever bitter they changed it bc it’s so understated but such a lovely character moment)

there’s not a lot of physical description of the characters but we know that crowley is young, has dark hair and good cheekbones, wears snakeskin boots that may or may not be his feet, and can “do really weird things with his tongue” 👀👀

also when he gets annoyed/stressed, he starts to hiss

when he’s in his flat freaking out about the impending apocalypse, he tries to calm himself down by alphabetising his collection of soul music. yes really

he didn’t take credit for the spanish inquisition. in fact, he’d never even heard of the spanish inquisition until the commendation arrived, at which point he went to check it out and was so horrified by what he saw that he fucked off to the nearest cantina and got drunk for a week

is an absolute little bitch of epic proportions. like in the show a lot of his lines are delivered all cool and sassy but in the book he’s literally just bitching about everything all the time. with the paintball bit, when aziraphale says he knew crowley was always secretly nice, he doesn’t flip out and push aziraphale against a wall, he just bitches some more, because he bitches all!!! the!!! time!!! “oh lord heal this bike”? bitching. the only times he’s not bitching is when he’s throwing a temper tantrum or gleefully pranking people

“nothing but dust and fundamentalists”

he slept through almost the entire 19th century because it was so boring, except for 1832 when he got up to go to the toilet

‘… Bee-elzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me… “For me,” murmured Crowley. His expression went blank for a moment. Then he gave a strangled scream and wrenched the on-off knob.’ ;a; my poor son i just wanna protect him

back in the day, the most popular fancast for him was benedict cumberbatch. this was exactly as awful as it sounds

the reason there were so many queen songs in the show is bc there’s this whole bit in the book about how any cassette that gets left in a car for longer than two weeks morphs into a best of queen album. crowley had a bunch of eclectic tapes (he likes velvet underground, joy division, and handel) in his car but they turned into queen. and at the end of the book?  ‘Crowley inserted a cassette labled “Handel’s Water Music”, and it stayed “Handel’s Water Music” all the way home.’ MY HEART

his CANONICAL NUMBER ONE NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION AS WRITTEN BY PTERRY AND GAIMAN is to accept that superglueing valuable coins to the sidewalk then watching events unfold from a nearby cafe is not proper demonic activity

aziraphale:

his hands are apparently plump and very well manicured

wears a camelhair coat. fandom has also collectively decided he wears argyle sweaters even though this is never once mentioned in canon

upon meeting aziraphale, most people get three impressions: 1) that he is british 2) that he is intelligent 3) that he is gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide. he’s not british and angels are technically sexless unless they really want to make an effort… but he is intelligent

at the start of the book, he hasn’t sworn for six thousand years. the first time he swears in six thousand years is “bugger”. the second time is “oh fuck” when he gets shadwell’d

after he gets shadwell’d he doesn’t immediately possess madame tracy. instead he bodyhops across the world and at one point possesses an american televangelist on live tv and proceeds to deliver an amazing smackdown of the commercialisation of religion then ends with “gosh. am i on television?” i love him

HE’S the one to suggest killing adam. mr stuffy angel’s NUMBER ONE IDEA for dealing with the problem is to MURDER AN ELEVEN YEAR OLD BOY

his bookshop is actually just a place for him to store his collection of rare books (including a collection of bibles that have misprints like the wicked bible and the standing fishes bible). he doesn’t actually want anyone to buy them. so he opens at weird hours, makes his shop constantly smell bad, and gives people death stares whenever they step inside to make them leave as quickly as possible.

also mobsters keep threatening his shop to try to make him leave. he thanks them politely, shows them out the door, and they are never seen again.

he does his taxes on an ancient mac, which is the only technology he’s ever adopted, and they’re so scrupulously accurate he’s been investigated five times because the government’s sure he’s getting away with murder somewhere

along with benedict cumberbatch as crowley people used to fancast him as martin freeman. 2013 was a dark time.

absolute asshole. complete stinky bastard man. he’s SO CRUEL to crowley it’s unreal, and he doesn’t even realise half the time. when he admits at the end before the showdown with satan that “i’ll have always known, deep down inside, that there was some good in you”. not there was some good deep down inside crowley. that DEEP DOWN INSIDE AZIRAPHALE was the knowledge that crowley had some good in him. my heart!!!!!!!!!

miscellany:

back in my day we didn’t have any of this fancy ineffable husbands shit. we called it air conditioning and we liked it

read @irisbleufic‘s crown of thorns verse. its the ultimate go fic

IT’S CANON ACTUAL CANON that after the book crowley and aziraphale moved into a cottage in the south downs together so uhhh yeah They’re Gay Karen

i love them so much. im begging you please read the book it’s so good

It’s fair to call the Full Moon deal morally wrong but in my opinion (that you can disagree with if you want) people shouldn’t act like Blitz wasn’t okay with it. Besides hasn’t Apology Tour proven who was more unhappy with the arrangement ending?
