I had been lost to you, sunlight
And flew like a moth to you, sunlight, oh, sunlight
Oh, your love is sunlight
Oh, your love is sunlight
But it is sunlight

a list of Good Omens season 2 things from episodes 1-3 that i haven’t seen mentioned in other posts
how much Aziraphale loves music. the way he sighs when his record is interrupted, how he mopes to the front of the shop because he just wanted to listen to the beautiful human creation
the smile Aziraphale has on his face as Jim/Gabriel says “when you don’t know anything at all, and yet you’re totally certain that everything would be better if you were just near one particular person” because yes! he does know! and Aziraphale is so happy to have that knowledge even if he does almost immediately try to hide it
Aziraphale immediately looking to his left when Crowley walks past him in the coffee shop. Crowley is generally to Aziraphale’s left so, naturally, that’s where he looks as soon as he knows Crowley is approaching. but he’s wrong, isn’t he? Crowley walks to the right.
“Give Me Coffee…” material, human pleasure “Or Give Me Death” immortal, heavenly eternity
“no, I would love you to help me. I am asking you to help me take care of him.” Aziraphale isn’t trying to push Crowley away. not with Jim/Gabriel, not with Heaven. he always wants Crowley with him, helping him. and he tells isn’t pretending otherwise anymore
a fly crawling along the bentley’s windshield even before Crowley gets in the car
the deal Beezlebub gives Crowley is the same as the one the Metatron gives Aziraphale, isn’t it? it’s a choice to go back to Hell/Heaven. the difference is in the way Crowley and Aziraphale think. Crowley sees Beezlebub’s olive branch as a trap, a forfeiture of the contented life he has on earth. the system is too broken to be fixed from a position of power. Aziraphale, though, does see it as an opportunity to fix what’s broken
right after Crowley destroys Job’s goats, cores fly away behind him
Aziraphale loves the romantic aspects of love but doesn’t know how to handle the difficult aspects. Maggie says she’s in love with Nina and Aziraphale smiles. Maggie says Nina has a partner, tells him that the situation is complicated, and he sobers, disappointed
the fact that the walls of Job’s home are the same color as the walls in Aziraphale’s bookshop (aka the color of Crowley’s eyes.) the whole of the Job minisope is to tempt Aziraphale. he tries human food for the first time, he works with Crowley for the first time, he lies to Heaven for the first time! everywhere, Aziraphale is met with temptation
Crowley cares for the innocent and the vulnerable. he humors Jemimah and makes her a blue salamander, he refuses to diminish the importance of the goats. when Aziraphale is worried about being a fallen angel, Crowley’s patient
every time Crowley performs a miracle, he draws his hand from the bottom (Hell) up. Aziraphale, however, draws his hand from top (Heaven) down
Michael, Uriel, and Saraqael (and Gabriel when he’s still the Supreme Archangel) wear a cold white. Muriel and Aziraphale wear a warmer, creamier white. except in the Job minisode. then, all the angels wear the warmer white— before Heaven turns cold and institutionalized. even the lighting of Heaven itself changes
Aziraphale invited Michael, Uriel, and Saraqael into the bookshop. they easily could have walked into the shop before Aziraphale got there, but they didn’t. because Aziraphale really does consider the bookshop partially Crowley’s! for the same reason Shax has to trick Aziraphale to get into the bentley, the angels have to wait for Aziraphale to enter the bookshop
Aziraphale popping up from behind the bentley as Crowley approaches and Crowley immediately offering him a “lift somewhere”
in the opening scene of episode three, the reflection just under Jim/Gabriel is “Give Me Coffee…” Gabriel and Beezlebub do get to choose “coffee.” they get to have their joy together
before Muriel interrupts their conversation, the dialogue between Crowley and Aziraphale in the back of the bookshop is shot from behind and over their shoulders. when Muriel opens the door, the angle shifts to face each of them
Aziraphale is not a good city driver.
the look Crowley gives Aziraphale after he turns Elspeth’s stolen body into bones. Aziraphale is so proud of himself, he even tells Crowley “I did a good things!” but Crowley knows better and he’s waiting for Aziraphale to realize the reality. and then the way Aziraphale hugs the jar with the dead boy’s tumor. he cares so much, he wants so desperately to be good and for the world to be good too
Aziraphale is as proud of his “newspaperman” disguise as Muriel is of their “inspector” disguise. how fond Aziraphale is of Muriel because they remind him of himself. a sweet, kind angel who just wants to do the good thing. an angel who is enamored with the human world. even as he and Muriel have tea together, he look at them so kindly. he knows their hesitancy to try human products but he also knows how thoroughly they would love that cup of tea if they’d just taste it
“it’s a bit different when it’s someone you know, isn’t it?” it’s a bit different when it’s not just some demon, when it’s a demon you know is, deep down and just below the surface, good.
that Aziraphale learns just as much from Crowley as Crowley learns from Aziraphale. episode three is Aziraphale beginning to learn the inequality between the wealthy and the poor. episode three is also Crowley learning balance between “the virtues of poverty” and just setting people up for a good life
Crowley, drunk on laudanum, looking for Aziraphale and not finding him because Aziraphale isn’t to his right like he should be. Aziraphale knows to look for Crowley on his left and Crowley knows to look for Aziraphale on his right

‘He’s too pure of heart to be anyone’s bit on the side’
Is that why you’ve never made a pass, Crowley? Is that why you’re living in the car? Never tried to kiss him? Never initiated touch (it’s usually Aziraphale touching Crowley)? Never tried to ask for more? Never tried for the fabulous kiss?
Have you never turned around and seen the way he gazes at you, Crowley? Never seen the look of pure adoration or for that matter the looks of pure lust? Did you always think Aziraphale was too pure of heart for the love you wanted to offer him?
And then Nina says something and Aziraphale drags you into the dance and you think well perhaps, no less pure of heart but perhaps Aziraphale could want you, could want what you want.
But by the time you tried, Heaven had already stolen him.

Imagine you spend millennia reading about love and romance and through those stories you vicariously experience thousands of first kisses and you’re told over and over how incredible and magical and special and lovely they are
and then your first kiss ever, with the one person you’ve loved and longed for all that time, is angry and bitter and is essentially a goodbye.

Love how that post about TFC being badly written has gone around with little additions of ‘yeah buuuut there is this’ so many times that people have cancelled out that it’s badly written….bc it ISN’T badly written. Y’all get on my damn nerves. I have READ badly written. Things with a billion badly covered plot holes and things with 3 page run on sentences and authors who care less about their characters than they do pushing an agenda.
Nora created a story that genuinely resonated with thousands of people, as evidenced by how quickly it blew up. I was here when there were just 6 fans and a dog, okay? And we GUSHED and we LOVED and we BEGGED people to read these books and love the characters we did. And then people did. And there were a LOT of good ones, of course. But just enough bad ones; people incapable of critical thinking. People who exist in some insane world where everything is black and white. And those people ruined everything.
Started shitting all over the books and the characters and then Nora. Until she left tumblr and the series behind her entirely. Until many of the OG fans, myself included, just got sick of the negativity and abandoned the fandom.
TFC is and likely always will be my favorite series of all time. It speaks to me on such a personal level that I can’t help but see the good in it. It doesn’t mean that I am blind to the bad. I AM capable of critical thinking and fair criticism of all the media I consume. What I don’t understand is the people who claim to be ‘fans’ but decide that the author is shit and the writing is shit and half the characters are shit, etc etc.
That is not fan behavior. That is insanity. If you don’t like that many aspects of something then just say you don’t like it and go find something that you DO like and stop trying to tear to shreds something that is genuinely meaningful to a lot of people.

Andrew is definitely the type of bitch to be able to tie cherry stems in a knot with his tongue.

Andrew and Neil are the type of people to hide lazer guns around their apartment just to start random wars with each other.

when Neil looks over, Andrew’s looking at him.
the others are away, the Columbia house is empty, and there’s a comedy show on. it isn’t funny. it was the only thing on TV. but the house is warm, they had a real dinner, and Andrew is curled up by his side with a blanket and popcorn.
Neil looks back at Andrew and waits. whatever it is that’s on his mind will either be shared or filed away. when Andrew reaches out his hand, Neil moves the rest of the way to fit his cheek against Andrew’s palm. Neil closes his eyes and hums.
it’s good. it’s nice. Neil is smiling and happy and Andrew is there to share it. it’s good.
Andrew switches to squishing Neil’s cheeks— Neil’s can’t help but smile more. it’s good. it’s nice. he’s happy and warm and Andrew is playing along because it’s not an act anymore. it’s their life and it’s good.
Andrew runs his finger over Neil’s bottom lip, tracing the smile. Neil muddles through, pressing a half-smile-half-kiss against the pad of Andrew’s finger. it’s nice. Andrew doesn’t push him away. Neil thinks he’s never smiled so much. it’s good.
Andrew hums and Neil hums back. it isn’t a good kiss. but it’s nice. Andrew holds his face and Neil let him have whatever he wants. he’s smiling too much for the kiss to be good. it’s nice, though. it’s good in a different way.
when Andrew does pull away, it isn’t more than an inch. he kisses the corner of Neil’s smile and whispers, “beautiful.”

Achilles was never immortal, he was a hero. heros can hope to be remembered and live on in memory but nothing else. how happy do you think Achilles would be to know that not only is he remembered as a Hero but his dear Patroclus is remembered right by his side? that the other half of his soul is remembered too. that they are remembered Together— even if Patroclus was never a hero and was doomed to be forgotten, they will be remembered Together forever.
