its crazy how aziraphale says “[she’s] in love. that’s what humans do” and that’s just the thesis statement of the entire show right there. theyre in love! that’s what humans do!
I go to a catholic school so its mandatory to take religion and I just remembered something I learnt and I like associated it with Good Omens and im actually ill 😭
“Six days for us could be 2 thousand years for God. So for God, it could’ve taken thousands of years to create the Earth. We don’t know how time works in Heaven.”
SO, depending on how long Neil Gaiman takes to write s3 and if he lines it up with OUR time, say it takes him a year or two and s3 comes out in 2026 Azi & Crowley will have been separated for three years. They would have been separated for three years for Crowley, but for Aziraphale, it could be hours, a few days, a few months, a few years, or it could be thousands or TRILLIONS of years since he’s seen Crowley last.
anyways thats what I thought about tysm for coming to my tedtalk 🎀
wasnt one of the songs for crowley in that insta post "TAKE ME TO CHURCH" by Hozier AND THERES A LINE IN IT THAT SAYS "the only heaven i'll be sent to is when im alone with you" and the whole thing with the finally and heaven and jalajJahakahamakbaja
So I was never really behind the 'Crowley was Raphael' conspiracy, as cool as it would be for the plot and my deep love for his character. There is something so endearing about both Crowley and Aziraphale just being some randos who fell in love with each other and humanity, and that's what made them different.
HOWEVER I find it really interesting how some of the vast powers over time/space Crowley has were really emphasized in this season (i mean christ he BUILT it all and HE was the one who said "let there be light", not God). Out of all of the Archangels we have now been introduced to, we are only missing Raphael, who hasn't even gotten so much as a name drop. It's almost as if no one remembers him at all, despite him being so important...
On a COMPLETELY UNRELATED NOTE, they really went all in with the Book of Life name erasure only for it to not amount to anything... I'm sure it's only a coincidence 👀
finished watching season 2 and I was not aware there were gonna be more seasons, so you can imagine the kind of stress I was under. anyway here is some old good omens art, new stuff coming soon!! @neil-gaiman
crowley says “you cant leave this bookshop”; he means “you cant leave me”; aziraphale hears “you cant leave earth (your books and the humans and ducks and food) to be with me in heaven for eternity”
aziraphale replies “nothing lasts forever”; he means “i will give up anything to have you by my side forever”; crowley hears “we cant be an us forever”
