i love the thought of us taking it slow
but we can move faster if you'd like
you should come through
you don't need an invitation
i know this spark is something we both feel
a mix of perfect timing
a little white wine
and deep conversation

no one knows how much it hurts when a little thing dies. when a bug runs its fate is already decided. what made him know he could get away with hurting me? he made me small enough to forget i was ever a person. i forgot and forgot under his boot.

Many others have done so already, and quite wonderfully, but I'd like to add my two cents to the whole chapter 96 reveal. Despite my love for Damianya, I've tried to look at this from an unbiased perspective, and I have still come to the conclusion that this was the right way to go.
I was honestly mentally prepared for Anya's abilities to be revealed to a peer first, if she were to the one to reveal them.
Whilst I'm definitely of the opinion that a child should trust their parents above anyone else (in case of non-toxic family members), in this case, despite how wonderful they are, her parents have not yet earned that right.
By no fault of theirs, mostly, because they're not aware that their innermost thoughts aren't private.
But they are lying. Doesn't matter if they're lying to themselves too, it has affected her faith in them. They are using Anya for the mission/as a cover. They are constantly contemplating leaving the family if they must. (They may not mean it, but they themselves don't realise it yet).
Anya has found happiness with them. She's found a haven. She's found safety and love, even.
But she hasn't found trust.
She has not found permanence. If anything, she now lives in greater fear that this beautiful life she's found could be taken away from her if they were to reject her because of her powers, or abandon her if she proves to be no good for the mission.
The Forgers are an ideal family, but have ways to go before they become truly real.

im fucking devastated. all aziraphale wants is to be with crowley. he's always thinking about them in collective terms now. we carved it out for ourselves. our bookshop. our car. there's no him without crowley anymore. he has spent six thousand years running away and telling himself there's no "their side" that he can't get too close always holding crowley at arm's length but the second doesn't need to fool himself anymore literally all he wants is to share his life with crowley. jesus fucking christ man

We can say however, that Aziraphale has picked up the pace. Time is of the essence as Shax marshals her forces to descend on Aziraphale's store and retrieve Gabriel.
"This is really Shax's first time out on Earth," Gaiman explains, "She is working very diligently andvery hard in Hell for a long time. Now she is on Earth, trying to figure it all out. She's just discovering what Crowley has known for 6,000 years, which is that if you're a demon and come up with a brilliant plan to screw up the lives of humanity, people will get there first and do worse than anything you could have imagined! She's coming to terms with that.
"She is having to deal with the first crisis onher watch, as well, which is the disappearance of the archangel Gabriel from Heaven. It would
be fair to say that by the end of the story, she is leading as much as she can get from Hell's requisition department - a legion of Hell - in
an attack on a Soho bookshop."
When audiences catch up with Aziraphale again, he's enjoying his time among humans. He owns most of the block in a Soho neighbourhood, and he's meddling in Nina's love life. Meanwhile, Crowley has been living in his car, with his plants sitting on the back seat. He's grumpy about his current status quo, but frequently hangs out at Aziraphale's. The duo began as antagonists, but their history and...
