#no i dont think crowley is gonna ever hate aziraphale for what happened but he's allowed to be angry

[topaziraphale]

"Stop saying Crowley won't help Aziraphale in S3 he'd go back to him in a HEARTBEAT and nothing would stop him" I get it no one likes the idea of Crowley being bitter after what happened for a long period of time but like can we at least acknowledge that he's currently going through probably the most emotional pain in his life since falling? Can we agree that he's opened his heart entirely - something you couldn't pay him to do unless the world is literally ending and he's desperate - to Aziraphale, and got shot down? Can we understand that he did it AGAIN only to lose Aziraphale again? Not that what Aziraphale did isn't without Crowley's own shortcomings (hiding the truth of Heaven's cruelty from him) but like,,,,

The appeal here isn't Scorned Crowley Doesn't Love Aziraphale Anymore, or Never Wants To Help Him Again, the appeal here is Crowley learning enough self respect to not just walk back right to Aziraphale like nothing happened after Aziraphale has had a pattern of consistently refusing him. Going years ping-ponging between "We're not friends I don't even know him" to "That's what friends are for right?" and "We're friends, why would you even say anything?" and "Friends? We're not friends. We are an angel and a demon!"

Like I get it, Crowley is a heartbreakingly forgiving person. Of course he's gonna forgive Aziraphale, I'll be surprised if he didn't forgive him by the time he walked out the bookshop door, but gdi he could at least grant himself the luxury of being at least a little irritated for longer than however long it takes to make a globe and some books float and angrily cry out to God in his flat. But due to the change of pace and dynamic that is establishing part of the conflict for Season 3, I just really like the idea of him for ONCE prioritizing himself and being like "Okay, fine. We'll get back at it when you're ready, then," instead of just taking Aziraphale back like his words and actions meant nothing to him, when clearly they have an effect on him.

What is Aziraphale going to learn if Crowley just accepts what he did so quickly, like he always has the entire time they've been friends? Idk maybe I'm just projecting too much darkness on their dynamic but I mean, if the pattern of Aziraphale pushing Crowley away/disrespecting him one day and then being fine with his friendship the next + Crowley never stopping to be like "Hey, that's not cool, at least give me a little credit" or smth was fine all along and will continue to be fine in the future, then why, after 6,000 years of being friends and loving this demon, can Aziraphale still not accept that Crowley is just fine the way he is, and instead got excited to promote him to an angel in a heartbeat once the opportunity presented itself? You can't blame all of it on Heaven when Aziraphale has demonstrated his free will/defiance to Heaven so many times. Or, I don't know, I guess maybe we can? Maybe I'm just craving too much angst to the point where I'm letting it cloud my analysis of canon. Idk.

Another big batch of asks!

Answering a bunch of asks under the cut! Most of them are ink and flowers centric. I hope you all are doing well <3

anonymous asked: wait wait hold up Anathema works in Azra's tattoo parlour?? amazing, when i was thinking of making my own florist/tattoo artist au, i also had Anathema be Aziraphale's apprentice :D i like when these two are friends. do you have any more headcanons about Anathema in ink and flowers?

she does!! she was doing an apprenticeship under him but has since graduated to doing her own thing (but she still works at his parlor). i can’t get into the whole plot because spoilers but angels/demons and agnes nutter’s prophecies still exist in the iaf universe, but anathema isn’t her descendant. instead, anathema is a wickedly smart computer genius and her boyfriend newt is an endearing but kind of inept descendent of agnes. anathema was azra’s good friend-turned-wingwoman once anthony shows up. i love her

anonymous asked: concept: aziraphale seeing crowley presenting femininely for the first time how'd you think he'd react? in your flower shop tattoo artist au

anonymous asked: OKAY totally not asking bc i may or may not have been thinkin abt this for like. too long. but would anthony have to like, come out as genderfluid to azra/how would azra react to seeing anthony present more fem for the first time

ooo ive been thinking about this as well! i dont think anthony would necessarily have a “coming out moment”, they just kind of do what they want. if they feel like presenting fem or using different pronouns they would just. do it. and azra would just kind of roll with it. i like to think that the first time anthony presented fem she got all dressed up for date night and didn’t tell azra and azra just Stares bc,,,, wow anthony is just gorgeous like that!! azra’s dead!!!

anonymous asked: You're a cutie pie. That's it. That's the fact.

:’ ) you’re a sweety pie!!!

anonymous asked: i deadass tried for 20 minutes to make the finger heart...... how did your friend do it......

i have absolutely no idea and it hurts my brain,,,

anonymous asked: Wahoo

wahoo.....

@alligatorsnbats asked: OK, so what's Oscar's thoughts on Anthony?

oscar LOVES anthony... he’s the worlds most apathetic cat but he actively seeks anthony out when hes around. azra is only slightly salty about it

anonymous asked: Is Anthony cross eyed?

he’s not! i made him a little bit cross-eyed in my latest post on purpose bc he was flustered but i dont know if it came across very well ;;

anonymous asked: not to be *THAT* bitch who comes into your ask box and gushes over your art but i love the way you colour things and your clean line work?? mwah. i wish i could draw like you its just so lovely

bfdkjfdh im cry,,,, just keep practicing my friend!!! i promise it’ll get you where you want to go. the last couple of months have been really nice for me in my ~art journey~ because its the first time i’ve ever really liked stuff that i’ve drawn. ive been drawing for about 7-8 years and this is only just happening and it varies so much from person to person!! some people get to where they want to go in 2 years, some people take 20. just don’t stop practicing!!

anonymous asked: your human!crowley deserves infinite appreciation and the fact that he has coloboma: that right there! is! good shit! he has snake eyes,,,, but as a human. u are a genius good sir and your art is a blessing 👌👌👌

haha thank you!! i think coloboma (i know how to spell it now!!) is such an interesting condition and it’s kind of underused for human aus!!! its so dope!!!

@bolitakawaii-senpai asked: what would crowley's and azi's fav emojies from the cursed emojis??

asking the real questions out here..... i think crowley’s would be the one with all of the teeth and aziraphale’s (assuming he knows what they are in the first place) would be the really cute one with big eyes and the pink hairbow

anonymous asked: concept for the ink and flowers au: something happens to crowley (imma b honest i have no idea) and has a lowkey crisis and chops all his hair off and just. joins his pet snake and snakes around the nursery untill azra comes in seeing crowley crying and cuddling his snake and yeah idk enjoy my the weird shit my brain comes up with

jhuyhaijodfaydgsihfujoi RIP TO THE HAIR...... i love the angst potential (and i can come up with a few reasons for the angst, but i digress) but i dont think i could part with anthony’s hair,,, i love it too much

anonymous asked: I can't handle your ink and flowers Aziraphale. I can't. His hair is TOO fluffy. His face is TOO squishy. He is EXTREMELY friend shaped. His glasses and his eyes are bright like SPARKLES. Every time I see him I want to go feral and show all my friends. I would hug him without letting go of given the chance. 1000000000/10. 💜🐝

anonymous asked: I have a cat just like Oscar (big himbo) and I got him some knit hats for Christmas and he's gonna hate me but I can't wait to dress him up like a little bee so: does Azra ever give Oscar like costumes or footies just for fun? If yes, does Oscar love or hate? 💜🐝

isldakfj im grouping these two together bc im assuming ur the same person anon!! i love your signature!!

you’re correct. his hair IS too fluffy, and he IS entirely too friend shaped. he has the BRIGHTEST eyes. i cant contain my rabid love for him and it spills out into the art. i can’t help it. he gives the best hugs

SLADKFJ YES HE DOES..... IVE BEEN MEANING TO DRAW THIS FOR A HOT MINUTE,,,, as i mentioned earlier oscar is the world’s most apathetic cat so i dont think he would care that much but he’s not super happy about it

anonymous asked: Y'know what? I'm too tired so say smth clever so just know that I love you and your art is amazing 💕💕 PS: i love that you also tag them as Ineffable partners (i guess the point is to be gender neutral)

i love you as well anon,,, and yeah i like the ineffable partners tag! i find that it fits more with their relationship for some reason. though i still tag as ineffable husbands since its such a popular tag lksdfjdfknjbh

anonymous asked: Hello! Fist of all thank you for yor art, you are one of my favorite artists in this fandom and I have Feelings about the Ink and Flowers AU. Second: Don't feel pressured to post daily, we understand that life is complicated and art can be difficult sometimes. Take care! You're the best!

anon i would die for you!!! i never imagined that i would ever be one of anyone’s favorite artists,,,,, im speechless,,,,,,,,

and yeah unfortunately i dont think ill be able to post every other day once this coming semester starts :( i’ll probably have to cut back to once every 3. but there’s more ink and flowers coming at u guys so!! stay tuned for that

anonymous asked: Good omens characters having a game night?

i know this was sent in for the au prompts i asked for but. i dont think im physically capable of capturing the pure chaos that would ensue from this. holy shit it would be so feral. 

thank you to anyone who read this whole thing!! i read all of my asks as soon as i get them and i have a lot that i’ve been sitting on for a while. if you sent me something i promise i haven’t forgotten about it!! if you’ve sent something in that you were expecting a response to and i havent responded, just send it again to be safe in case tumblr ate it

i love all of you! <3

It’s 1991.

Aziraphale heard someone entering his bookshop. Since that day began he had a feeling that might happen. He usually doesn’t like that sound; it only means that soon he’ll have to deal with telling people off, but that one is different and he feels it. He feels the sadness, the fury, the disbelief. Hurt. It stinks of someone hurting. He isn’t really familiar with that, doesn’t know how to console a person who just lost something dear to them, but nevertheless he’s as happy as one in this situation can be, mainly because it means he chose not to be alone. Crowley walks in, his shoulders slumped, his posture just a little bit off, face framed with familiar sunglasses, shielding him from the world. 

„Crowley, I’m..” started Aziraphale, but was quickly interrupted. „Did you hear the news?” There was a moment of silence, just a tiny tiny moment before Aziraphale responded „Yes. Yes dear, I’m afraid so.” Crowley sighed and took off his glasses. Aziraphale couldnt remember when was the last time he saw his eyes bare like this. As Crowley sat on the couch, his movements slow and tired, the angel managed to get his finest wine and pour it into glasses. He gave the demon one of them and quietly sat next to him and watched him drinking the wine so fast he nearly choked. He figured the glasses are useless, pouring the wine would be a simple waste of energy so he miracled a second bottle and just gave it to Crowley.

They sat, drinking, for a long time. Or short. The passage of time was something neither of them considered worth noticing – after all they had it plenty. „Crowley, dear. You are allowed to grieve, you know that?”, Aziraphale decided to speak. „Don’t.”, came a simple, hard answer.

„What do you need, then?”

Crowley turned to him, eyes lost. „I am not sure, angel”, his voice shook a little. Aziraphale suddenly hated the way it all works, human lives. Such fragile things yet so brave in their existense. He took Crowley’s hand that was laying on his lap and intertwined their fingers. Turns out his voice wasn’t the only thing that was shaking. Crowley squeezed harder. Aziraphale could swear he saw the demons eyes get a bit wet.

„Have you ever met him?”, he decided to ask. „Oh yes. Once. Not counting the concerts of course”, answered Crowley. „We met at some awful, awful club. He looked lost, i was bored, so i decided to mess with him a bit. Even took him to a private room.” „I know you want to tell me everything, but please spare me the details”, the angel was suddenly blushing. Good thing that Crowley didn’t look at him then. Seems like his eyes were reliving the past. „Oh angel, it wasn’t like that at all.. I was shitfaced, he was lonely – we talked. All night long. Singing wasn’t the only thing he was good at, you know. He was a pretty good listener too. I mean who could sit there fully focused and listen to me rambling about almost 6000 years of stuff”, he looked at Aziraphale and added „besides you, naturally.” „He listened to every word i said. We laughed. He cried. Demons dont give hugs, you know, i had to sent a note to hell that i tried to strangle him”, he laughed bitterly. „He gave me a note, here, I still have it”, he took a piece of paper from his jacket with his free hand and gave it to Aziraphale, who took it carefully. It was still folded, so he asked „Can i read it?” Crowley just nodded, so he finally unfolded it.

„If you ever want to pour your heart out again darling, call me. Freddie.”, it said. Underneath it was a phone number.

„When he was writing that i told him that demons don’t have hearts”, he smiled fondly. „He just said that i must be pretty bad at my job then.” The angel took his second hand, feeling something inside him breaking a little. „Oh, Crowley… It must be truly awful to..” „Angel, before you say anything, I didn’t tempt him. At all. Never.”, said the demon without any heat in his voice. „I called from time to time. We talked for hours. He always laughed I’m that little devil on his shoulder, only nicer. Went to every concert since then. Mainly for the music, have you heard these songs? Masterpieces.”, trailed off Crowley. „Yes I’ve heard a few. Not really a fan but I recognise a talent when i see it. Or hear, in that case. And he without a doubt was very talented.”, said the angel quietly. „Yes..”, now the demon was looking straight into the angel’s eyes, „I was there. When he was leaving. Pretty sure his soul saw me, cause he smiled and tapped at his shoulder. I don’t know where he went, I hope It’s heaven, though I’d never talk with him again. He doesn’t deserve anything less”, his voice cracked at the last words.

Aziraphale noticed tears. He didn’t know demons could cry, but he also assumed they don’t make friends with humans, let alone angels. The world was strange. He released Crowley’s hands. „Come here, dear boy”, said and opened his arms. Crowley fell into him as if he didn’t have any air in his body left. His arms held angel’s waist tightly, hands placed on his back. A tiny, single sob went through his body. Aziraphale just held him like that, for a couple of minutes. That felt very human. When they finally let go, Crowley sniffed. „It’s kinda funny, he would hate that kind of thing. Being sad.” „I’m pretty sure he would forgive such a thing.”, Aziraphale smiled. So did Crowley. „I could check if he went to us. Maybe even could manage slipping him a little note.” „Oh, such rebelious of you.” „We both are a bit different from our usual appearances today, don’t you agree? Now, I want you to play me your favourite mr Mercury songs.”, said the angel, miracling another bottle of wine.

„Hmm.. i think you’re gonna love this one then.”
