Slightly off topic, but this is also useful in understanding the mindset of some extremely religious people who have not yet deconstructed or worked through their trauma. In their minds, they ARE Aziraphale, reacting to a very real and terrifying threat. There are a lot of religious assholes out there, but I’d argue there are also a lot who, like Aziraphale, believe they are dealing with a very real and terrifying reality. And sometimes the Venn diagram is a circle.
Aziraphale Does Not Have Religious Trauma
We talk a lot about Aziraphale's trauma when we discuss his motivations and choices, particularly the ones we don't like. But what we don't talk enough about is the KIND of trauma he has, and it's not what we think of when we think of religious trauma. We have to remember that everything that Aziraphale has been threatened with and terrified by in his existence. It's REAL.
When a human has religious trauma it's generally because they've been abused and conditioned by threats of hell and damnation and judgement and so forth, and part of the healing process is realizing that it's a bunch of bullshit from an abuser with a power trip. That's not the case with Aziraphale. The angels are mostly bastards, but I'm willing to bet most of them believe in the Great Plan and genuinely believe in what they're doing. Because God is real, hell is real, and you really can be tortured for eternity if you step out of line. Aziraphale saw it happen. I can't even imagine what that must have been like.
When he tries to stop Elspeth from digging up bodies, it's not from some vague moral qualm; it's very practical concern for her future. He knows hell is real and doesn't want this young woman to suffer. And the excitement in his face when he realizes that it's more complicated than that and there are moral justifications for it. "Good news, I've found a work around!" Aziraphale the rules lawyer my beloved. He's managed to survive all this time by finding justifications for evading the rules, but when the most powerful angel in heaven drops in for coffee and a chin wag, that's not an option anymore.
I just really feel like we need to have this in the front of our minds when we're answering every Why? with "Trauma." I mean, yes he has trauma, but it won't be cured by developing stronger self esteem and giving heaven the finger. (Satisfying as that would be.) It will be cured by tackling the source and ending the very real physical threat that heaven poses to himself and Crowley.

Any idea when you'll have more printed copies of Villianous?
I’m going to do a complete reprint sometime this year- I honestly meant to much sooner but my original printer place is no longer available so I’m looking for somewhere that can do them in just as nice quality :) I’m hoping to open preorder sometime in the next couple months! This time will probably be in hardcover instead of softcover which will be a fun change 😁

“And so comes snow after fire, and even dragons have their endings.”
New automata 1/3!
Going back to my nerdy roots here. Reading The Hobbit is one of my earliest memories; I have a tattoo from it and wrote my college admission essay on the unlikely heroism of Bilbo Baggins. I’ve been dying to make something with Smaug for a while!
These could easily be customized with a different quote/dragon color to fit Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon, etc, or hell even stuff like Pern or Fourth Wing for the book folks. Lots of dragons out there 🐉

parce qu'on s'est crié des mots qui ont sali tous nos plus beaux dessins, on a hurlé des chaudières d'encre noire sur le bonheur
j'expose ma tête, mes yeux, mon cœur et mes mains
si tu reviens
something quiet, gentle, and romantic for today. I’ve been assured it’s suggestive enough for @goodomensafterdark ‘s smut war, so enjoy this soft interlude with suggestive tummy ❤️
