I fell in love with this series after the second season

Translation of the fourth picture:

Honey/Daddy, can you drive in the middle of the road so that the car gobbles up the stripes?🌸🌸🌸

From "me and you" to "us" 🐍💙

"La pietà" (inspired by the famous sculpture by Michelangelo Buonarroti)

Crowley and Aziraphale bring the THEM to the arcade and the demon learns an important lesson. Never EVER challenge Aziraphale to a shooting game. He might not like guns, but it doesn't mean he can't use them UwU

Yes in my mind Aziraphale is a pro at Doom while Crowley plays animal crossing all day everyday xD

I HATE DOING COMICS!!! I can't draw fast, they look sloppy and not good at all... But the lockdown thing was too cute and the prop for today was unexpected so...

CONTRAST

Allow me to explain this drawing a little. Although it's a pretty simple drawing, it has a lot of meaning to me. There is symbolism in it. This is how I see Aziraphale and Crowley at the beginning.

On one side we have Aziraphale. A pure being, an Angel, who is tilted completely towards his the light of God, the "Heaven side". And yet he doesn't look at it, he looks a little towards us, humans. He has compassion for us, he cares, more than he should. He is also not smiling at all. Yes he is an angel, he knows they are the good guys, but why killing so many people? Why banishing Adam and Eve for an apple? He trusts God, but doesn't understand.

On the other side we have Crowley, in the Shadow, in God's (and Aziraphale's) shadow. He is a demon, who is not welcome in the light. He doesn't look at his own side either, his all body is actually a little tilted towards us. Hell is ok but he likes humans more, he like earth, he is fond of us. He doesn't care much about his side, although he definetely doesn't care about Heaven either. And he is smiling because he likes the gray area he is in.

✨AT THE BEGINNING ✨

Am I ready for a full month of Good Omens fanarts? HELL YEAH!!!

I don't know if I'll be able to do a fanart a day, following the props we have, but I going to upload as much Good Omens as I can.

Hope you are ok with it 🍎

i, too, am an eldritch horror with an emotional attachment problem.

many quick sketches and other things from the past few months. in bulk! because some of them are better than others. i will learn to draw digitally eventually… in time…

shoutout to crowley for surviving a 6000 year situationship, you’re a stronger man than me

crowley & love in good omens 2

⚠️ SPOILERS BELOW FOR GOOD OMENS SEASON 2 ⚠️

so we already know that Crowley has seemingly gotten his ideas of how love with humans "works" from rom-coms, with his "sudden downpour" and "they realize they were meant for each other," whereas Aziraphale references romance novels with the formal dancing and realizing they're "deeply in love."

we saw the "rain" both in season 1 AND 2 when Crowley and Aziraphale shelter under each other's wing in each opening scene. and they dance during the party in the bookstore.

BUT earlier in season 2, after the coffeeshop scene where A and C originally brainstorm how to make Maggie and Nina fall in love, Crowley mentions in the shop that once they have a "fabulous kiss" that'll work it all out.

so we have not one, but TWO scenes of sheltering in the rain, but it doesn't get them together. they dance, but they still don't get together. that leaves (in Crowley's mind, I think) one thing to finally convince people that they love each other: a kiss.

in his desperation for Aziraphale to not go to Heaven with Metatron, what does he do? he kisses him. it's his last-ditch attempt, his "if all else fails," but it still doesn't work. he's tried everything he knows and Aziraphale still leaves. and I think that hurts him just as much as A actually leaving, because maybe he thinks he really doesn't understand love at all.

I apologize for that. anyone have any thoughts on this painful headcanon? or am I way off here...

The Bastile Summarized:

Aziraphale: I cannot speak French and I refuse to dress like someone that isn’t being actively guillotened right now. Also, I can’t perform miracles.

Aziraphale: Time for crepes, brioche, and a stint as damsel in distress.

Crowley, aka the one who turned Aziraphale into a hedonists: I have regrets.

Crowley: Are we going on a date or wot?

@iswear-imnot-12 did some gorgeous fan art for a fic of mine over on Ao3. It is gorgeous, and I wanted to say thank you!

I just read this amazing good omens fic by @theangelwithawand and had to make a fanart!

This is a 1926 flapper Crowley;

Here are some of my favorite parts:

And my references:

If u liked, please go read it!

I couldn’t for the life of me figure out why “Every Breath You Take” is on Crowley’s playlist. Other than it provides the “E” to spell out ‘tempting’. But there’s plenty of other songs they could’ve chosen. So why pick the stalker song?

Then it occurred to me that it’s not about Aziraphale. It’s how Crowley feels Heaven and Hell watch him.

Thoughts on Aziraphale

Spoilers below:

I think its such a big step for Aziraphale to admit out loud that Gabriel (who enforced Heaven’s will) used be awful.

The reason he’s so flirty after the church scene is because he realized he’s in love with Crowley. But once Crowley leaves, and he has time to think over everything…he gets scared.

Season 2 Spoilers Below

Man, the “welcome home cheater” meme could be applied to Season 2, but not to Aziraphale. To the Bentley. Didn’t see that coming.

Crowley’s Type?

Season Two Spoilers Below

Okay, so when Shax and Aziraphale are in the car, Shax says to Aziraphale, “You don’t seem his [Crowley’s] type at all.”

…

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!

What does she think Crowley’s type is? What is she basing this assumption on? Crowley’s aesthetic? Did Crowley curate some kind of reputation as a lusty tempter of goths downstairs in some hilarious scheme? How?! He’s so bad at that kind of stuff!

Maybe she’s just preying on Aziraphale’s insecurities?

I need to know!!!!

On Crowley in the Book of Job

Season 2 Spoilers below:

I just…I’m having a hard time with Crowley tempting Aziraphale to eat.

Like, we just established that Crowley is not capable of true evil.

And he and Aziraphale clearly know each other enough to have a dynamic. Aziraphale clearly knows Crowley enough to have faith in his fundamental hidden goodness. And despite all of his pretense, that faith means something to Crowley.

So…why tempt Aziraphale? It feels so…uncharacteristically sinister.

Is he trying to get Aziraphale to fall too? But why? Some part of him obviously likes Aziraphale.

Maybe he’s trying to prove a point? But what is he going to do if Aziraphale falls over this? How will he carry that for eternity?

Maybe he knows Aziraphale won’t fall, and that’s the point? But how would he know that?

What’s the point?

On Aziraphale and Insecurity:

Spoilers below:

I completely forgot about the speeches Shax gives to Aziraphale. So much makes sense now.

- She says, “I didn’t think you were his type”

- She calls him “Crowley’s emotional support angel”

- She teases him about his love of human things, specifically food. Something Gabriel makes him feel bad about multiple times in season 1.

She brings up every perceived failing of his, and then moments later is given (read: manipulated) into atoning all of his flaws.

And him and Crowley both being angels who aren’t actually very good at it would put them on equal footing.

No wonder he makes the choice he does.

On Gabriel:

Spoilers below…

Oh, I see. Gabriel doesn’t care about Earth. (I never thought he did, but I just figured it out).

He didn’t just leave because he knew Heaven would drag him back.

He was trying to get himself cast to Hell to be with Beelzebub.

Which is sweet, but so…so selfish. Literally the opposite of what Aziraphale wants, who is selfless to the point of ruining the only thing in his existence that matters.

Season 2 Spoilers:

The only way for this to be fixed is for Aziraphale to be put in one last, very dramatic “Crowley and/or Humanity vs Heaven” situation.

And he chooses Crowley. He chooses their side. Bonus points if he does it instinctively.

Maybe we bring it around to the “I’ve never killed anything” bit from season one.

Neil and fic writers feel free to use this. Just give me credit. 😂

And when this happens, it’s gonna feel so good.

And it better end in their garden in the South Downs.

On Crowley’s Misunderstanding

Good Omens Season 2 Spoilers Below:

In episode 2 when Crowley asks Nina about Maggie she says, “Not a thing. Definitely. We’re just friends. Actually we barely know each other.”

This is verbatim what Aziraphale used to say about Crowley. And Crowley, who misinterprets the understanding between himself and the angel, says “Got it.”

He doesn’t get it. Yeah, it’s an excuse but it doesn’t mean “this is the person I’m deeply in love with, I just can’t say it”. It means, “We have some kind of deep connection but we haven’t worked it out yet”.

And Crowley just doesn’t seem to get that heaven is still a big part of Aziraphale.

He rejects Aziraphale too. Aziraphale asks him to go to Heaven with him and Crowley says no. And we the audience understand why, but Aziraphale doesn’t.

They’ve clearly never talked about any of this before.

Plus, throughout the entire season, he doesn’t seem to consistently know where Aziraphale’s loyalties are.

He says “the existence I have carved out for myself.”

Aziraphale is the one to say “I thought we carved it out for ourselves”.

Crowley straight up says that Aziraphale only calls when he’s bored, when he needs to gush about his good deeds, or if he needs something.

After meeting Muriel, Crowley says, “I don’t know how your lot have stayed in charge all this time.”

My point is dolphins that they need to communicate!!! Both of them are at fault for what happened, and yet how could they possibly know any better?

On the Nina and Maggie Parallels

Good Omens Season 2 Spoilers Below:

I love Nina and Maggie, and love everything they say in their final scene. But they got one thing wrong.

Yes Aziraphale does believe in magic. That he can fix a system beyond repair. But he’s nothing like Maggie aside from aesthetic. He does not show his emotions, not really. Not when it counts. Maggie tackles emotional issues head on while Aziraphale is the literal embodiment of repression.

Crowley isn’t an exact parallel to Nina, because he’s never actually opened himself up. Despite all of the atrocities he’s seen, he’s still got a bit of hope and optimism.

For all of his hard edges, Crowley believes in magic too. He believes in love confessions in the rain, in looking into someone’s eyes and knowing it’s meant to be. That “one good kiss” means happily ever after.

Good Omens Season Two Spoilers Below:

Remember when the bandstand and “you go too fast for me” and “someone killed my best friend” were our biggest problems? Those were simpler times.

On one hand, I don’t want the “Metatron drugged the coffee” thing to be true because character development and recognition of religious trauma, but on the other hand…

Also don’t listen to Queen’s These Are the Days of Our Lives unless you want to sob.

There’s a road to the South Downs, they’re just taking the long way.

(Luckily, the Bentley gets great mileage.)

On Wording in the Final Scene

Good Omens Season 2 Spoilers:

I’m doing a rewatch, but it has taken all day to watch the season. I keep pausing because I know what’s coming.

But now The Scene is here and…I discovered something that made it so much worse.

Aziraphale says, “Obviously you said no to Hell, you’re the bad guys.”

He doesn’t say “they” he says “you”.

We know that Aziraphale doesn’t see Crowley as a demon not really. Crowley knows what he is, but Aziraphale sees him as a Fallen Angel. It probably doesn’t help that Crowley also often minimizes his own Fall (like telling Aziraphale that he sauntered vaguely downwards). It probably confuses Aziraphale even more. He can’t reconcile that Crowley is a demon who is nice.

And I don’t think Aziraphale wants to “fix” Crowley. I think he sees Crowley’s Fall as a mistake, and that Crowley deserves to be an angel (because he still thinks angels are good).

And it makes sense for Aziraphale to think this way. He just witnessed Gabriel’s redemption. Gabriel who tried to brutally murder him, and callously dismissed human life.

And yeah, Beelzebub is a demon falling in love, but Aziraphale probably explains this as “Beelzebub is another Fallen Angel (rather than demon)”.

Which could perhaps mean that his view of evil is a little more complicated than anyone, himself included, give him credit for. He thinks demons are evil, but not beyond redemption.

But in the moment, Crowley doesn’t think about any of that. He just hears Aziraphale call him “a bad guy”. After everything. In the moment when it matters most, Aziraphale lumps him in the evil category.

And both my heart and Crowley’s shatter a little bit more.

On Aziraphale and Crowley in the Final Scene

Season Two Spoilers Below

Alright, I’m gonna go on the defensive for Aziraphale.

Crowley is 100% justified to feel the way he does. He put himself in a vulnerable position, and was rejected. He wanted to be Aziraphale’s first choice for once, and yet again was denied it. More than that, Aziraphale wanted him to change (even though I think Aziraphale thinks he’s saving Crowley) so that they could be together.

But I don’t think Crowley realizes just how deep a hold Heaven has on Aziraphale. He knows and straight up says that both sides are toxic, but he doesn’t seem to get how hard it can be to leave a toxic relationship. I also don’t think he understands how Aziraphale’s faith in the righteousness of God is a part of his character.

Plus, Aziraphale finally feels validated in the eyes of Heaven, something he’s always wanted.

I cried so hard when Aziraphale got into that elevator because I was thinking of all the times I stayed with a toxic friend group, or with my abusive ex.

It hurts so badly to watch a character I love make a mistake that I’ve made.
