Why didn't anyone tell me this is a play on a bible quote? First time I regret being raised by atheists.
Can't believe some gay ass show got me reading the bible.

Dear @neil-gaiman ...
You are probably not going to understand why I am writing to you until the end of this. It's kind of poetic but please stick around.. I am deathly allergic to hornet/wasp/bee stings. I live in Canada where atm in Ontario we are dealing with an invasive giant hornet species that eats bees. So. I had to save the bees. Edit: I've been educated by husband and some lovely tumblr folks about it being a European Hornet! Still very deadly if she had stung me.
I went to take a nap. And found one crawling around my room floor. You could say I did not take a nap. Instead I grabbed a glass cup and put it overtop of her. She's very pretty, but for me she's pretty deadly. The closest books to stop the paranoia of her flipping the glass over were your books. American Gods and Stardust were too thick. Posed threat of also tipping glass over. So.. The Ocean at the End of the Lane it was.
Thank you for the book. It's a lovely read. And you could say it's helping save my life while my husband is out of the house at work.
Sincerely,
Emelie.
"Words save our lives, sometimes." Literally.
Also shout out to @wardog-of-the-endless who sat in her office in Florida and listened to a panicked Canadian over Discord Voice Clips since I was shaking too much to type. I don't get scared often but when I do..
Jumpscare: Hornet.
Edit/Update: I didn't kill her, but she was not doing well prior to my trapping her. I was going to wait to get husband to decide what to do with her, he's a Biologist so I knew he'd know better. I was very scared due to the fact I was home alone and initially had no cellphone around me to call 9-1-1 if she was to sting me. But when he came home she had curled up and passed on.
We're a trap and release sort of fam. We DO live in the area where trees have been killed off by invasive moth species so I was worried she was invasive. Thank you to those peoples who educated me.

OH NO NO NO THE NO.
Looking back. "I know what YOU smell like." And suddenly, subtly, it's THERE. Tiniest of bleps here and there. Which Aziraphale knows, because HE bleps in Hell to be in character. Crowley bleps a LOT around Jim-biel, trying to suss out if he's faking it. When he's explaining VAVOOM (and KUDOS to Jon Hamm because Goob's trying to do the Tennant/Crowley Left Eyebrow😄!), and infamously in the "Hello Gabriel" scene. It's been there the whole. Damn. Time.
But I looked, and: yeah, it's here. A half second after this gif starts, when he's hyperventilating and trying not to cry and soldiering on...blep. Tiny blep. Trying to maintain control...
Blep.

Season 2 ending spoilers!!!!!
I don't know what kind of deity Neil has become. But I am frightened. Not only did this monster create a second season that filled my heart and shattered my soul, but he wrote an ending that not even 30,000. Fucking. Fanfictions. predicted.
I've read stories where aziraphale was manipulated with heaven forgiving Crowley, and I've read fanfictions of angels questioning heaven, but I have not even seen the description of a story of aziraphale being offered to "rule" heaven. (Biggest fucking manipulation, but still brilliant)

Good Omens update #mysoulhasbeencrushed:
"I'm back on my hyperfixation bullshit, and I might not want anyone to save me this time around." I said after finishing season one. "This is the best show!" I said halfway through season two.
Now, after finishing GO2, I realized how naive I truly was. I know now that I am a fool for not expecting my heart to be shattered into tiny microscopic pieces.
In my 14 year long reading escapades, and my 24 years of watching t.v/movies, I've been stabbed repeatedly in the chest before... But this? With THESE characters?? It has stabbed me in the chest, sliced me open and slowly ripped my beating heart from my opened chest cavity and slowly crushed beneath someone's foot.
Neil has chosen violence and I'm at his mercy... I've been BURNT enough times that I should have seen the pain coming from a mile away, yet I foolishly decided to turn a blind eye for my new found favorite characters, so for shame to me for getting too comfortable.
All the dramatics aside, however. I'm gonna start the series over again because I can. Bravo Mr. Gaiman, Michael Sheen, and David Tennant, and everyone else who has worked on GO... bravo.
