DEAD BOY DETECTIVES | THE CASE OF THE TWO DEAD DRAGONS

All I feel lately is angry. I'm worried that maybe I'm like Brad and Hunter. And like my dad. I don't wanna be a bad guy, Edwin.

the biggest letdown in the entire dead boy detectives show was when i realized that niko and crystal weren’t actually in love but niko, in fact, had a parasite.

Shipping is very simple to me. I either vibe with a ship or I do not. It isn't about what has the most canonical support. It isn't about hating other people just for shipping things I don't. It isn't a competition over which ships are the most special and real. Don't care didn't ask. Shipping is about having fun. 👍

Aziraphale in the paintball scene, though. I mean, seriously, y’all

Look

at

this

absolute

nerd

Especially that last gif! This is an angel that is literally thousands of years old, he helped create the motherfuckin’ universe, and he is p o u t i n g at Crowley over some paint on his jacket that he could EASILY remove himself.

But wait! There’s more!

Not only has Aziraphale already shown Crowley the stain, but Crowley has already circled him to assess the damage for himself.

And yet, after saying, “Well, I would always know the stain was there,” with that little pout, he turns to show Crowley the stain again.

And then! AND THEN!!

He gives Crowley this look.

Do you see the little raise of his eyebrows??? LOOK AGAIN

He could very easily get rid of this stain himself, but he is doing E V E R Y T H I N G in his power to get Crowley to do it for him.

“I could do this myself,” he’s saying, “but I’d rather you do it. You can do it better than me, can’t you? Please? Please, won’t you???”

The funniest part about this, fam, is that we all know Crowley needs very little prompting to actually indulge Aziraphale’s whims. He’s incredibly indulgent, anyways, we see ample evidence of that in Hard Times.

But this…I think (?) this is the first time that we see Aziraphale actively seeking out and trying to manipulate his way into getting one of those acts of service that Crowley so does like to give to him.

Like, sure, back during the Shakespeare scene, Aziraphale gives Crowley that very hopeful, “oh, WILL YOU?” look when Shakespeare mentions needing a miracle for Hamlet, but that is so different from this.

This is Aziraphale KNOWING that Crowley indulges and using that knowledge for his personal gain.

AND CROWLEY GIVES IT TO HIM. HE JUST. DOES.

That is the face of a spoiled angel that has gotten exactly what he wanted–a certain demon’s love and attention.

And that look Crowley gives him is just as devastating to me as Aziraphale’s sunshine smile over getting what he wanted.

That is a look of UTTER INDULGENCE.

He absolutely knows he’s been played but is happy to let it happen, because there is nothing quite as satisfying as indulging Aziraphale.

That is a look that says, “You’re so obvious, angel, and it’s adorable.”

He’s made his angel happy, what the fuck does he care?

I know the “Vane called Flint gay for living in a house” thing is funny but I think in all seriousness Vane was calling Flint a class traitor for living in a house which is in some ways much funnier
