we only ever talked about HALF of why these scenes were a big deal, like I just realized this today and my heart is going insane.
It’s not just that Crowley’s pissed at Gabriel for treating who he thinks as Aziraphale this way, the last thing he says to the people about to kill him is a benign and peaceful wish to see them again.
And like- this is Crowley trying to replicate Aziraphale to a T. So he legitimately just sees him as this endless well of compassion, someone who is always warm and accepting. It’s not just their friendship throughout the years, he remembers Aziraphale’s kindness on the Eastern Gate. When the angel had absolutely no reason to trust this random demon who just slithered up next to him. Crowley knows that he’s loved. Maybe not like that quite yet (although he’d be very wrong), but he knows that around his friend he’s always welcome and safe.
And Aziraphale?
Well he just thinks Crowley’s the coolest fucker alive, like he is laying it in THICK and enjoying every second. Listen to that charisma, look at that smirk. These are traits that are typically only appreciated in the context of how good it makes Crowley at tempting, a job he hates. But Aziraphale doesn’t see someone manipulative or regard this persona as signs of his “demonic nature”, he just sees Crowley. Someone charming, fun loving, and cute.
This is when we get to know precisely why they love each other, what exactly they see in the other.
edit: this is now my most popular post, good work team, lol
small bi-ceratops update. i attached the bodies together, as well as the frill to the head once it was cleaned off. her eyes are taped to protect them from paint once i get to that.
i’m out of epoxy still, but hot glue is the ultimate in low budget crafting right?
one day camila makes the mistake of mentioning the velocipastor™️ in front of ava, who becomes obsessed with it.
ava forces beatrice to watch the movie with her, and bea spends the whole movie sighing and shaking her head while ava laughs her ass off and gasps at every twist and turn (beatrice actually finds the movie amusing, but she’ll die before admitting that to ava).
afterwards ava keeps saying things like “vfx: car on fire” or “SHE’S FINE” or “i think my hand is immune” without any context and everyone thinks she’s finally losing her mind
for halloween beatrice finally gives in and buys ava a dinosaur costume so she can be a biceratops (because “get it, bea? a biceratops, because i’m bi”)
Okay, so I don't normally get a lot of asks but I wanted to do this anyways because I love making playlists and I need a pick me up.
Here are some of my playlists from Spotify. Put in the Ask which one(s) you would like to see a 5 Song Playlist for. Some are fandom, some are not:

🤐You're Going To Rip Your Own Heart Out (soundtrack to my early 2023 manic episode...it was a whole thing)

BONUS: 💅Lesbian Wolfstar at Hogwarts
🤠 Neon Moon (Cowboy) Remus
🩸 Crimson Rivers
🎸 Bind My Wandering Heart To Thee (DYH)
😷The Pandemy
💖 Biceratops
ALTERNATIVELY: Is there a 5 Song Playlist on a theme/fandom/fanfic you wanna see? Put it in the ask and I will throw something together. Dealer's choice.
This is that other, final question! Do you have a favorite Cambrian-era animal?
Biceratops nevadensis is pretty neat (photo source)
Though if I had to choose my favorite trilobite it would be Dicranurus but that is mainly because of its connections with my favorite novel Threshold by Caitlin R Kiernan.
It drives me insane, just activates something visceral, and I finally realized why. It's not just an appropriately placed close up shot to denote intimacy between Gabriel and Beelzebub, it's a fuck damn pov shot.
Gabriel is not dressed in accordance to his preferences, he is borrowing Aziraphale's clothes. And Beezlebub, well lets just say a black blazer is a black blazer, not exactly the easiest thing in the world to differentiate. Just looking at those hands joining, the individual identities of their owners melts away. The moment could have so easily belonged to Aziraphale and Crowley... and it's just- it's... it's just like the Rats of Nimh. They've seen this sign everyday for almost their whole lives, and have never once known what it says. They can make inferences, use context clues, wherever they are, it seems to be too so it must be about them, but they couldn't ever know for sure. Until one day, without warning, they looked at the words, and understood them.
And the sign communicated a way out.
Aziraphale and Crowley are the first of their kind. I don't think we really appreciate or understand how utterly unfathomable what they feel for each other is in their lived contexts, even to them. All this painful fear, all these lengths they go to, all to keep safe this precious experience they don't even have the language to name. It's not just unallowed, it's unreal. So then just imagine what the actual fuck they must be feeling when they see someone else... just fucking do it. Just like that. An angel and a demon. In love. Intimate, affectionate, in front of heaven, in front of hell, in front of humanity, in front of GOD, and She knows who the hell else.
For literally the first time, they’re seeing the things they feel for each other exist in others like them.
I had no idea you were Bi Sarah! Happy pride month!!!🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 (they seriously need to give us a bi flag emoji) from one biceratops to another we’re lucky to have you in our community💚
WE DO NEED OUR OWN FLAG EMOJI. It's so pretty just look at it. The colour gradient ... so soothing. I get by with 💖💜💙 for the month.
That's very kind - I see you, friend! HAPPY PRIDE YOU BEAUTIFUL BB!
aand she’s done! meet Silvia the Biceratops!
i had to change her face a bit as i realised it got a bit smooshed while rerooting. so now she has a bottom tooth peeking up instead of a top tooth peeking down heh.
with a very simple sundress, and a bag full of flyers, she’s off to go help at her local Pride march.
Give me Biceratops and Menty B please! (I'm greedy and would like two) xx
Muah! x I have actually already done Menty B here, but am happy to share 5 songs from my Biceratops playlist!:
Venus In Gemini // DEZI
Thinking you're scared of me by the way you talk, boy
'Cause you know I could be all the things you're not, boy
All bark, no bite, baby, you're such a decoy
Neck between my teeth just like a dog toy
I'm second hand embarrassed
Guess you're not good at sharin'
It's not my fault you're jealous
Can't help the way she's starin'
I don't really mean to flex, but
I'm pulling hotter baddies than my ex boy does
I don't ever get attached
Venus in Gemini I'm moving to the next one
2. She Calls Me Daddy // KiNG MALA
She's a little bit psycho
But she follows
When I call in the middle of the night
She's got you wrapped around her finger
You try to linger
But she's already on her way to mine
It might be a little superficial
She plays with the boys
But she comes home to me
Little fucked up but I think it's official
'Cause she might be your girl
But she's calling me daddy
She's mine
She wears a collar with my name
Secretive but not ashamed
3. Flexible // Depeche Mode
I ask myself, "is it a sin?"
To be flexible when the boat comes in
Open the window and out go ideals (woo, woo)
4. Girls & Boys // Blur
Du bist sehr schön
But we haven't been introduced
Girls who want boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they're girls
Who do girls like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love
5. Stuff Me Up // Peaches
I see you sitting, stuffing your face, why don't you stuff me up?
Eat a cookie, a big dick, everyday, what?
Eat a cookie, a big clit, everyday, what?
