All of this
J. K. Rowling and Neil Gaiman are such a funny contrast to me, like
Rowling: Oh, and by the way, I put gay characters in my books.
People: Is there anything… showing that?
Rowling: No. Also trans women don’t deserve respect
People: wtf
Gaiman: Here are some immortals that transcend all human concepts of gender and attraction who use a variety of pronouns, and also some clearly canon human queers.
People: Are the immortals queer?
Gaiman: That is an entirely valid way to view them.
Other people: Ugh, pushing a modern woke agenda. It used to be-
Gaiman: Fuck you

God he’s pretty
I am filled with indistinguishable joy whenever I read a fic and they don’t describe Aziraphale’s eyes as being blue. Don’t get me wrong, every once in a while they look blue but they’re most often some variation or mix of green, grey or brown. Michael Sheen’s eyes have as much range as he does.

He wasn’t always a demon. And i’ll say even more. In a way he was never a demon

I think it’s very telling that Aziraphale seems to be somehow the more worldly of the two of them, in some ways. For instance, he’s fired a gun before and until the bullet catch, Crowley never had. He was the one who knew about “Higher Up”’s plans to shut the universe down after only 6,000 years, whereas Crowley was just busy delighting in the creation of nebulas and stars. We definitely know that Aziraphale understands how human reproduction works, unlike the other angels. Jury’s out whether or not Crowley knows, but the bit about the one unicorn escaping and him not seeing the issue suggests that he might not, or not at that point, at least.
And yet Crowley understands vastly better than things aren’t black and white, that heaven does not necessarily have good intentions, even, that the separation of the two is stupid in the first place, and that asking questions is good and important. He knows, fallen or not, that you’re not supposed to kill kids. He doesn’t even want to kill goats.
Don’t mind me, just mulling in my newfound brainrot over here…
They’re so similar in so many ways…
They’re so similar in so many ways…
They both have a deep appreciation for food and/or drink:
2. They both love good clothes and wear accessories they don’t even need (glasses for the aesthetic, etc)
3. They both love the best things that humans have created: books, cars, music, dancing, etc.
4. They both love creation: Aziraphale loves people, protects and helps them, is excellent at forgiveness and compassion (which none of the other angels demonstrably are). He loves beauty and sees it in everything.
Crowley loves plants and animals, and would never admit it, but is vastly kinder about people than any other demon ever would be.
5. They’re both unique in terms of having a sense of humour and imagination, unlike other angels and demons.
6. They both understand (now, at least) moral nuance. They’re so much more complex than their peers on either side. They have an active delight in the world, that holds true for Crowley both before and after his fall.
They were meant for each other. I rest my case.
