It's actually so sad how Aziraphale always tries to do the right thing and every time ends up suffering for it.
In s1 he stays to save the Earth and let's go of Crowley, while going against Heaven and risking his own destruction.
In s2 he sees Gabriels state and decides to help him. The person who tried to annihilate and destroy him, as well as treating him horribly for millenia, and he still helped him, going against Heaven AND Hell and risking his own life.
In the Job episode, he goes against Heavens orders to save his children and risks Falling. Something I think went very overlooked in the fandom.
He literally almost died to get Crowley out of a sticky situation with Mrs H. And ends up traumatising both himself and Crowley in the process.
And the goddamn finale. He gives up a happy life with Crowley to save Heaven, the place he should be staying as far away from as possible, and in the process putting his very existence in danger.
This is an angel whose love for humans, the Earth, and life in general runs so deep he's left with absolutely zero regard for his own safety. He is THE angel of the Eastern Gate. His very function is to protect. And he will protect the things he loves until his last breath.

does anyone have any post-s2 fix-it recs in which aziraphale isn’t made the bad guy? i keep seeing all these stories where aziraphale is begging for crowley’s forgiveness and it takes time for crowley to accept the apologies and aziraphale was 100% in the wrong etc etc. i can’t seem to find anything that deals with the fact that aziraphale did something brave and moral in wanting to make Heaven a better place, and as an aziraphale kin i’m really struggling to engage with the fan base. if anyone has any fics for aziraphale defenders PLEASE drop them i am begging.
