idk maybe it’s just me but i really do not give a flying fuck nor do i want to ever find out what crowley’s angel name was or if he used to be one of the other archangels
because he isn’t that angel anymore. he’s crowley, the not so demon but definitely not angel.
and i will admit that this opinion is informed by my trans self reading crowley as trans/enby. because to me finding out crowley’s angel name would be like finding out a deadname, and every time i find out a deadname of someone i know (or even someone i don’t know) i cringe. it makes me physically recoil because that is not and will never be information i need to have. i want to know your name as it is now, and if it changes tell me and i will use your new name.
i like to think it was incredibly intentional on neil’s part to have angel crowley not introduce himself as anything. because we don’t need to know what angel crowley’s name was, it is unimportant information.
i just don’t need to know what is effectively crowley’s deadname because tbh i think anthony j crowley is a sick ass name as is

Wanting more homoeroticism in the tension between the show’s leads as the narrative introduces greater intimacy and higher stakes between them, especially in a landscape that lacks queer representation who isn’t a villain or dies within one or two episodes, but also recognizing that core values/motivation for these characters lie in their relationships with one of two major female characters in an on screen sausage fest where the only other woman is a morally reprehensible femme fatale and erasing and/or vilifying female leads in favor of conventionally attractive males is a common practice observed in fandoms that’s rooted in misogyny and justified under the guise of rejecting heteronormativity, thinly veiled double standards, or claiming the woman is simply not interesting enough and not wanting to bolster that mindset
