that feeling when the hero finally stops holding back and lets loose, becoming more ruthless and violent than the villains...

finally put my finger on what I disliked abt the writing in 13's seasons. and it's the same problem I had w like. discovery and picard. and it's that they take themselves soooo seriously. like dw is a silly goofy show that has a lot of heartfelt moments and heartbreak and love but also like. farting aliens and lil fat buddies and sonic sunglasses. and torchwood was fine being so serious bc it Wasn't doctor who and it was its own thing w its own vibe but I just really dislike chibnall's Serious Sci-fi Writing for the entire run :/
(and ik there's Moments of it not taking itself so seriously but overall the vibe is just so odd compared to the rest of the show. esp when I just bingewatched the other 10 seasons lol)

UM??? You must be tired of hearing this all the time but like how do you constantly put out masterpieces after masterpieces?? Each story you write has such interesting & creative storylines and you’re able to write them so so amazingly and so detailed I don’t even know how tk explain it?? Like 😭 you should be putting out books I would buy them all ong
You were definitely your English teacher’s favorite student LOL
😭😭 that's high praise my friend 😭 i wouldn't call them masterpieces *blushes and giggles in a corner* but thank you so much! i'm glad you think of my fics that way, and i hope i keep on writing even better stuff :'))
i think my fav part about writing is how creative i can get with the plot. there's no limitations, no boundaries, and you get to create your own world, characters and universe like how fun is that :')) i just hope i don't run out of these ideas and creativity 😭 sometimes i think about writing an actual book but then i get scared lol but maybe one day! thank you again, be thinking about this for the rest of the weekend hehe

on a more serious note after i’ve processed this trauma, let’s talk about crowley and aziraphale.
(HUGE spoilers for good omens season 2)
i want to particularly note how after crowley is asked if he and zira are together, he immediately goes on to drink. he gets so drunk over it to the point where he tells gabriel to jump out of a fucking window; and not only that but he expresses very vividly his feelings about zira’s trial in heaven - which wasn’t even a trial at all, it was just punishment without any negotiation.
the symbolism between heaven and hell and how it reflects on these two is almost jaw dropping. crowley was an angel once, and he clearly doesn’t want nor care for any kind of forgiveness after his fall. he’s grown more accustomed to being in hell than being in heaven, and then he adjusts even more so to being on earth. he doesn’t quite believe in the whole good and bad trope no matter how much he insists on being anything but good and kind. he’s somewhat neutral, but he’s more inclined to follow zira in what he does - even if it takes a lot of convincing and the “i was wrong” dance.
zira is an angel and is very much attached to that role. we see that because of how devastated he gets after lying or when someone even mentions disobeying god’s plan. and even as he grows more used to deceiving and/or lying his way out of certain ploys and keeping his angelic role, we still can see that he is very devoted to heaven; and, unlike crowley, is a firm believer in the good and bad trope. he even goes on to call crowley the bad guy in most cases. but no matter how far away zira strays from heaven, he is devoted to it. even after being called a traitor.
zira doesn’t appear to be very in touch with his emotions throughout the whole show. he can feel things like love, sure, but maybe that interferes with his own feelings. as such, he doesn’t realize just how close he is to crowley until it’s too late. crowley, on the other hand, lost the ability to sense things like love and whatnot. he seems to have a firmer grasp and understanding on his feelings, especially since he’s very emotional and expressive about it.
what zira does understand is being appreciated and praised. now getting that sort of attention from crowley is one thing, but to receive it from the metatron himself? that’s a whole new level of validation. especially after being offered such a position. it’s not manipulation nor something in the coffee, it’s aziraphale’s desire to please heaven - it’s his devotion coming to surface again. and the way he’s so utterly overjoyed at the prospect of having not one, but two things he loves at the same time makes him so unaware of what crowley would think. crowley clearly doesn’t share that same passion, and when he hears the offer right when he’s about to spill his innermost feelings, that has to be absolutely destructive to him.
but then we can go even further. crowley is so desperate to hear that zira denied the offer because this is what it has all come down to. 5,000+ years of being on their own side, of being an angel and a demon, of being best friends and barely nothing more. he knows full well that he’s changed far too much to go back to the life of an angel, and he’s grown too fond of this little life he carved out for himself; for THEM. for it to all change in the snap of a finger, at such a bad time, is heartbreaking. that’s without mentioning how he just watched a relationship between gabriel and beelzebub take off faster than his own relationship ever could have.
they absolutely love each other, but it seems like one understands that more than the other. zira has been appreciated by crowley for so long, he’s put his vessel’s well-being into that demon’s hands repeatedly. they could always lean on each other. but when the very thing you’ve poured your whole existence into pleasing finally starts to exhibit that same sort of appreciation, don’t you think it could overpower that old source of love?
