Tales of an Injured Fog Rat

There is something wrong. There is something really wrong.

aziraphale did the wing because crowley did the wing and i'm normal about it and it didn't make me cry

okay but hear me out

hozier literally wrote From Eden about A/C and then Crowley stole his look

I thought you were JOKING

since everyone is going batshit feral over crozier, may i offer you this live version of J&W in which hozier drags every “s” for as long as he’s (rhythmically) allowed and sounds like he’s literally hissing

“Looking a little wan there, Cassie. How’s that grace of yours holding up?”

I’m gonna use this post to quote @impala-sunsets:

“The fact that this scene was shot, means that everyone - studio, actors, writers - approved of it, and it’s implications.You do not shoot what you do not want in network television. It’s expensive and inefficient. Considering the length of the scene and the fact that we don’t actually learn anything that propels the episode, I’d be willing to bet this was simply cut for time. Let that sink in.”

Crowley calling Dean Cas’ boyfriend.

Cas not correcting him in any way.

I’m not saying Destiel, but goddamn Destiel. 

We made a little thing, to celebrate 30 years of Good Omens, and to cheer people up. I hope you like it. Feel free to reblog...

@neil-gaiman​ THANK YOU SO MUCH! ❤ Could you please post the script for us non english natives? Youtube automatic subtitles cover most of it but not all. Thank you! ❤ 🐍😊

Okay, so somebody’s probably already pointed this out but I can’t believe I only just noticed this.

I already knew that when Aziraphale is in his shop, he was clearly pictured under the “E”, for East, since he’s the guardian of the Eastern Gate.

But I just noticed that when Crowley is in Aziraphale’s body, and he’s in the bookshop, he’s under the “W” for West. Because he’s Aziraphale’s opposite half.

I just love how detailed this show is, and the little clues they gave us to show that Crowley and Aziraphale had switched bodies.

And portraying one as the West and the other as the East continues on with the idea that Crowley and Aziraphale are opposites, but are ultimately connected, and one can’t exist without the other.

the fact that crowley called aziraphale “angel” eight seperate times is already way too much to handle but it’s even worse when you think about it because the show goes on at length about how both of them know way more about human culture than any respectable celestial being should; it’s make it clear in the scene with gabriel in the bookshop that they know very well how humans interact. it’s said repeatly they’ve gone native, they love humans and the way they work.

so when crowley calls aziraphale “angel”, we can assume he is perfectly aware of how that sounds to any humans around. he wants people to think they’re a couple, he wants people to think they’re so in love that that’s his nickname for his parter. he knows what it means, and he’s using it on purpose.

I found a compilation of all the ‘angel’ moments today and it also struck me that a lot of the times Crowley calls Aziraphale “angel” are scenes where they are in public (and, twice in one conversation, shouts it to the world), and usually only calls him ‘Aziraphale’ when they’re alone or having private conversations (like on the phone).  

He’s deliberately using it in places where everyone around them can hear,

#it’s the opposite of a private pet name for someone#it’s your EXTREMELY public pet name for someone

I knew I had the “My wife cries at absolutely anything” post tab opened for years for a reason

Most shows with overpowered supernatural characters always try to come up with elaborate excuses to explain why the characters can’t just magic themselves out of every situation. Good Omens doesn’t really do that, but you don’t really question it because you completely buy that these morons are so unequivocally incompetent that they straight up forget that they have the powers of fucking demigods. They’re like high-level d&d characters who only use the same three moves and have completely forgotten about the 73 magic items sitting in their inventory. 

Crowley: I was totally planning on teleporting to this galaxy 4.3 light-years away but then you died and I was sad :(

Aziraphale: Oh I’m sorry. But listen, I need you to go to this village about an hour outside of London

Crowley: You Want me to GO WHere?? How the– how the FUuuck am I supposed to- I can’t Drive, it’s Rush Hour! You want me to WaLK?? In the Rain??! Please, be Realistic.

I cannot express the effect this post had on me. I read it aloud to my roommate and she burst into helpless laughter because it had never occurred to her that Crowley could do anything to get to Tadfield but drive the Bentley. It absolutely never had occurred to me, either. We both have been reading, rereading, and loving this book for about a decade now.

how dare you hide this in the tags omg

Long time, no see… have some vengeful bois to brighten your week!

i can tell you with full certainty that right now aj crowley has taken up a job as an uber driver and is leaving the public of london mentally scarred but where they need to be seven times as fast

I’m not sure if his uber rating would be extremely good or extremely bad. “Drove 90 down Oxford street. It was terrifying. Reached destination 30 minutes early due to over taking traffic on pavement. 5stars. Would NOT reccomend”

All of his customers leave terrible reviews but he’s having a blast and BELIEVES he’s doing great, therefore his ratings are great

“so the dude showed up in a car that was like a hundred years old which I was like wtf because uber told me my car didn’t qualify when I had a 2005 civic. stuff like the gas gauge and shit weren’t even working? like it was way below E. anyway, didn’t die, somehow. 5 stars”

“scary as hell but good playlist. 5 stars”

“Picked me up with his boyfriend in the front seat who seemed less than pleased about picking up a stranger on their way to the Rizt- he gave me a chocolate Bon Bon out of nowhere when I got out though and made me feel 100x better when wishing me a fabulous day. Hope they had a great date. 5 stars”

“CAR WAS LITERALLY ON FIRE. 5 STARS”

if y’all don’t think that Crowley absolutely LOVED riding onto that airfield, car ablaze with infernal fire and Queen blasting from the stereo, like some kind of white fucking knight to Aziraphale’s rescue, then you’re outta yer mind.

Because he fucking RELISHED it.

Look at the way he saunters outta that beautiful Bentley. Listen to the flip way he greets Aziraphale—acting all casual—as if he didn’t just spend the entire trip white knuckling it, gritting his teeth and screaming with effort and concentration.

Note that jaunty little compliment he throws out as he swaggers up to his angel all confident and steady. Look at how he dips his ear to his angel—like a knight errant seeking the behest of his beloved.

Then look at how he puffs out his chest and declares that he’ll handle it. Look at that chin held high and proud. He’s on a fucking mission for his angel and he is 1000% just eating that role up. He’s a goddamn hero and he gets to be that in front of and for the one being in the universe he cherishes above all others.

He was fucking MADE for that moment and he fucking loved it.

Crowley entertaining himself with the simplest things

Cover for the Ineffable plan. I made a process video and probably will upload later. This was a fun practice. Glad to be back to digital drawing ^^

Noticed something while re-reading Good Omens: the description of Crowley’s flat mentions beds, plural, but bedroom, singular. Ended up with a funny mental image I wanted to share.

Crowley has been waiting for the right time to say “you can stay at my place, if you like“ for longer than he lets on :P

I honestly did not anticipate how many people would find this sad rather than funny/cute. Oops? Rest assured, he does get that sleepover, eventually.

In fact, the night the world didn’t end, they were both too exhausted* to bother with the ladder, and ended up passed out together on the bottom bunk.

*Sure, they don’t technically need sleep, and sure, Aziraphale isn’t in the habit, but c’mon. It had been a long day week eleven years.

Several people in the notes also suggested that Crowley may have gotten his idea of what a couple’s bedroom should look like from watching old sitcoms, and that’s also very valid.

Well this is adorable. I’m os glad it took a fluffy turn ^///^

Interesting!

Crowley: “Changed my name cause a psychic told me that some twat in the future puts the headquarters of something called VIRGIN AIRLINES in a city named after me. If I’m still a virgin by then I will riot.”

Aziraphale:… that’s decidedly more information than I asked for.
