Good Omens: Lockdown and Crowley not mentioning his living situation in S2*

*till S2E6 when he asks if he can have his apartment back bc he's bored of living in his car but Aziraphale doesn’t hear bc mentally he’s in Alpha Centauri.

Having read the 'Crowley doesn't tell him' Neil Gaiman ask close to when I first listened to Lockdown (I lived under a rock until recently), my initial thought was HAS HE BEEN LIVING IN HIS CAR FOR YEARS?! but I think he was still in his apartment in 2020:

as far as Hell knows, Crowley just had a pool party in holy water (the holiest) so the higher-ups are probably willing to give him some space (plus Beelzebub is busy going on pub dates w Gabriel)

while there should be ~8 months between the end of Season 1 events (The Very First Day of the Rest of Their Lives on Sunday, Aug 25, 2019) and the Lockdown phonecall (on or near the 30 year anniversary on May 1, 2020), I can't imagine that's a very long time for Hell, especially if you're understaffed and busy dealing with fallout from Almostgeddon / going on pub dates

Shax dropping off mail and asking about the boiler seems like something one does in the first few months of living somewhere, not ~3 years in (if S2 is in 2023)

That said, I think the phone call underlines why Crowley never directly tells Aziraphale that he is living in the Bentley in S2, and it's just a great conversation (all hail Gaiman) sooo I wrote about it:

***Note: This post analyzes the Lockdown phonecall from Crowley's perspective only. Our heroine is feeling quite emotionally vulnerable at this point in time so things are going to hit him harder than they normally would.

I do not think Aziraphale meant to cause him pain (!!) but Crowley can't see that yet and I've written this post in a way that reflects that missing insight. (I explain in more detail in this reblog if you are interested) I am working on a companion post for Aziraphale's side of this conversation and how I think it affects his behavior in S2 because if we know anything about these two, it's that their exactlys are different exactlys.***

Crowley’s habit of sleeping to skip time like an RPG character by a campfire amuses me to no end, but in this context it feels heavy. Crowley already worries about losing time with what he loves and he probably hoped things would be different between him and Aziraphale after the events of S1. But things don’t change much. Then lockdowns start, and Crowley is trapped in his apartment alone, transcendentally bored, and unable to make his brain shut up. Sleeping a month away starts to sound less awful.

But Crowley hasn’t given up yet; he’s still awake when Aziraphale calls, and he’s even giving it two more days. Was he waiting for Aziraphale to call? Is it even possible not to at least kind of wait for someone’s call when you are cut off from everything and the caller has been your only friend and crush for millennia?

Aziraphale asks why Crowley isn't "out and about" tempting people or setting a bad example and he responds:

C: Everyone's so miserable and cooped up right now anyway, and I just… well… don't have the heart for it. A: *glowing audibly* I'm not miserable~ C: Really?

Crowley sounds genuinely surprised at Aziraphale's happiness and quickly assumes it's because the angel has been around people. He's so lonely/depressed/in his own head that he hadn't even considered someone enjoying being 'cooped up'. *sob*

Aziraphale goes No actually I put the closed sign up in the window and I'm having the Time of My Life, never had so few customers, not in 200 years!, etc. Although, he says:

A: …There were a few young lads a couple of nights ago who broke in through the back and tried to steal the cashbox! But they soon saw the error of their ways~ C: *clearly amused* Did you smite them with your wroth? A: Well I certainly gave them a good talking to, and I sent each of them home with cake~ C: *annoyed, swooning* Cake? A: Quite a lot of cake, actually. C: *physically ill from having such a giant crush on this dumbass baker/security guard* eeeekkkgghhh I'm gonna regret asking but.. ...rrgh.. *30 seconds of Aziraphale joyfully describing his baking while Crowley probably tries very hard not to imagine the angel eating each item in sensual slow motion* I stg you can hear him struggling in the background once or twice

A: …And once I've baked them, I have to eat them all myself, which was why I was so delighted— C: To send your burglars home laden with baked goods, yes, nnyeaayeah I follow…

Crowley interrupts, finishing Aziraphale's sentence in his nervous hurry to say the next bit:

C: *loud inhale* You know, I could.. hunker down at your place. … Slither over and watch you eat cake. I could bring a bottle--a case of… something… drinkable…?

He's trying to sound so casual about it but this is someone who was rejected/abandoned by actual literal God after asking what he thought were welcome, uncontroversial questions. Asking makes him vulnerable. He's supposed to be the rescuer, not a demon in distress. He does not feel casual about asking.

Crowley knows it's unlikely but he's so miserable and desperate for company that he can't help but ask, just in case. Even the smallest chance of spending time trapped indoors with Aziraphale—with nothing to do but drink, watch him eat, and talk about things they'd normally avoid—is too tempting.

A: *panicking* Oh I— I— I— I— I'm afraid that would be Breaking All The Rules! *nervous breathing* Out of the question! I'll see you… when this is over. C: Right. gnnehh. I'm setting the alarm clock for July. Good night, angel. *dial tone*

And just like that, Crowley doesn't need two days to decide. The depression nap doubles in length. He doesn't hear how badly Aziraphale wants to say yes behind the fear, or maybe he does and it hurts worse because why isn't Crowley enough for him? You can almost hear the spiralling:

SHOCKING, asking made it worse. It always does doesn’t it? Why even bother? you just embarrass yourself.. SLITHER over? why did I say that *grumble grumble* of COURSE His Holy Holiness, your only friend in the universe, would rather eat cake by himself while everything goes to shit than ~deign~ to have you in his presence. "AsK aND yE sHaLl ReCeIvE" bugger this for a lark im going to bed

(a bit dramatic but we've all been there)

I imagine sleep doesn't come right away. Maybe his thoughts drift to when he sat beside the angel at a dark Tadfield bus stop after a rather eventful Saturday. Crowley must've felt a tiny bit hopeful when he invited Aziraphale to stay with him: Heaven had withdrawn its favor and the bookshop was gone; Aziraphale was like him now. Didn't that mean things would change?

"I don't think my side would like that." Apparently not.

In the end, Aziraphale did ride the bus back to Crowley's apartment and stayed till the next morning when he caught a cab, but only to sell the illusion. Crowley understood that as far as sides went, the angel was still on Heaven's, even if Heaven wasn't on his.

And now this: the entire world is shut down; there is nothing for Aziraphale to do but stay in and read and bake in his magically reconstituted bookshop and he still won't invite Crowley in. Burglars and un-fallen angels only—nobody who asks questions.

So... of course Crowley doesn't tell Aziraphale when he loses his apartment. He already knows what answer he would get; the angel has told him so many times. Aziraphale is a company man first, a companion to one very sad owl when convenient.

If Crowley works up the courage to say 'please take me in, I have nowhere else to go' and Aziraphale goes 'sorry, no, far too political, but I WILL risk being erased from the Book of Life to protect this nude amnesiac former coworker who always hated me,' it's going to be too much. You can't sleep long enough for that type of hurt to go away. Better not to say anything.

"Then nothing has to change, does it?"

hey happy trans day of visibility. i'll get visible why not

i'm nonbinary, specifically genderfluid. i identify with this label because idk, even though i look back at my childhood and spot signs of dysphoria and gender fuckery, i don't feel like i was ever masquerading as something i wasn't. i'm just different now. and i may be different again in the future. i was a little girl then, and i'm a little bilv now.

i'm AFAB and just passed my 2 year T anniversary. i'm loving it, and just like putting together a pinterest board of hair and fashion styles to figure out how i wanted to present my truest self, starting T to change my voice and body and facial hair was just another step in that. i love how i look now and love all the changes T has brought me.

at this point i plan to remain on T indefinitely, but knowing a friend who took T for four years then stopped because she got to where she wanted to be, i feel safe and comfortable enough to stop if i ever change my mind. this is why visibility is important 💕

i don't plan on having any surgery at this point. i thought about top surgery for a while, but considering my fluidity and how much i've enjoyed tits in the past, i think i want to keep them in case i ever want to focus on them again in the future. this is the only thing i "struggle" with; how much i would like to have a flat flat chest right now, but know i may not want that in future, and surgery is so definite. thankfully i'm happy with binders and am small enough to live in a comfy middle ground.

i'm so grateful for all the trans art in the good omens fandom, especially @chernozemm's explicit illustrations that highlight how fun and sexy tcocks are. i did look into phalloplasties and matoidioplasties once before, but never felt as strongly about it either way, which didn't seem like a good basis for such an intensive surgery. now i'm less ambivalent about my genitals and actively love them

(i also suffered from vaginismus my entire life, until about 2 or 3 years ago when i started engaging with more nsfw content and must have just? exposure therapy'd myself out of it?? it feels like i didn't do anything at all and it just went away on its own, which made me personify my vag a bit, bc i'm so fucking proud of her. now we're finally getting along, i'm taking her to my grave)

keep drawing, keep writing, keep sharing. every little thing you put out there helps people like me love ourselves more, and hearing other trans stories only helps solidify how real and genuine we are for feeling the way we do about ourselves. happy tdov

HAPPY 6 MONTH ANNIVERSARY SINCE GOOD OMENS SEASON 2 GUYS

[seedsofwinter]

I have 5 boxes of Good Omens zines and merch in my house and I should NOT by the end of the summer. Did you miss these the first time around? Come talk to me!

🎶 “Don't cha wish your bookshelf was hawt like mine? Don't cha?” 🎶

Over 2 years, with a group of friends and fellow fans, I worked on 6 Good Omens print zines (plus another 7 or 8 digital only?) I wrote and was the editor for ones with stories; I did marketing for all of them. I know these books too well, their rising emotions, their jokes, the sexy bits...

Now, I’m the one who has all the physical overstock. Which accumulates..... Oh, does it accumulate haha

I’ve spent the past few days preparing to let you know what is in these boxes.

So!

Fellow Good Omens fans, drop me a line. I have all the books in the 2nd picture and they could be yours instead. I also have various merch which will need homes. Some more pics of those and books below!

This @oursidezines​ Pride 2022 book could be yours! I have most of the pride flag postcards too. Out of and low on a few.

This @WingZine could be yours! I have all postcards to join it as well. And a spare few bookmarks and stickers.

This @ineffableeraszine​ vol 3: Bookshop 1800s could be yours! I have the postcards that go with it; and a tidy number of bookmarks, the Aziraphale sticker, and the Crowley sticker. Plus the lanyard with PVC card.

This @IneffableEras vol 2: Soho 1967 could be yours!

I have the postcards that go with it, a handful of the “You Go Too Fast For Me” Crowley and Aziraphale charm, and a few pages of stickers. Plus the lanyard with PVC card.

Here's what the lanyards and PVC cards look like, so you can know! For other merch, come talk to me. 1800s' card is half an inch slimmer than 1941 and 1967.

All have an about 16 inch lanyard with "Ineffable Eras” printed in an Era-unique font. All with lobster clasp style hook.

I have a hold on all my remaining @IneffableEras vol 1: Blitz 1941 (if someone decides not to get it, or after held copies reach their destination). These were from my personal stash, so there were not many.

If you’d like to roll the dice I can take your name, but it's a long shot. Those who have a hold on a copy know it’s their last chance to get one.

I HAVE postcards, a few stickers, the Aziraphale charm and the Crowley charm, and the above lanyard.

THE EASIEST WAY TO REACH ME is twitter: https://twitter.com/OlivierHennis.

But you can message me here. I’m doing this all myself, so just give me a little time. I haven’t slept in almost 24 hours bc I hyperfixated on taking stock and doing the pictures. XD So I’m gonna go do that. [11:30am EST, May 10, 2023.]

I’ll make updates on this post if/when zines or merch are fully gone!

Thanks! And HAPPY GOOD OMENS 33RD ANNIVERSARY!

HAPPY GOOD OMENS 3 YEAR FANDOM ANNIVERSARY TO MEEEEEEEE!!!!!

A VERY special day for me! It's been 3 whole years since I've been in this beloved Fandom of mine and I'm so happy that I'm still here. This Fandom means so much to me, more than I could ever express. Thank you all so much for being such an amazing and creative place for me to express my love for this show. You are are so amazing. I love and adore you all 💜💜

(Also I made this year's piece angsty in light of Season 2's ending hehe 🤭🤭)

[ID: A digital illustration of Aziraphale and Crowley. They are on opposite sides of the canvas, with Aziraphale standing on the left and Crowley sitting on the right. On Aziraphale's side he stands tall with his arms behind his back and looking up towards a light, presumably Heaven's. He is not in his usual beige outfit but instead in a grey suit with a cravat and frilled inside sleeves and brown dress shoes. His eyes are red from tears and streaked with gold. His nails are also painted gold. His halo, one that encircles his entire head, and one of his wings are out as well. Above his head are the words 'Archangel Aziraphale'. The word 'Archangel' is in purple and crossed out and the word 'Aziraphale' is in yellow. On Crowley's side he is sitting with one leg up and the other on the floor, bent. He is leaning on his leg with one arm and holding a bottle of wine in the other. He has his sunglasses on to hide his face but it's made clear he is crying. He is wearing a simple outfit, a dark turtle neck and jeans with his signature snake skinned boots with red soles. Devil horns are above his head and a tail is out as well where he sits. A dark wing is out as well, to match Aziraphale and together their wings overlap to make a heart where above it there are the words "And a Nightingale sang in Berkeley Square." Similarly to Aziraphale there are also words above Crowley that say his name in red and 'One of the Bad Guys', crossed out and in black. The background is in black and white on each of their respective sides. /End ID]

I know I have a good omen brainrot, but I wanna take a moment to say happy anniversary to Owl house specifically their episode, “Thanks to Them”!

Wowza.

Can’t believe it been a year, not to sound old but it feel like yesterday. To see this after a long hiatus and also having to swallow a hard pill of the fact it was canceled. I’m still mad about it and I miss owl house to this day but I’m not gonna let that ruin it for me. So for now I wanna say happy anniversary to the episode Thanks to them!

Happy one year anniversary to this fic!! The fact that I was even able to get it out somewhat on time was truly a Christmas miracle 😂 Posting this here in case anyone is looking for some holiday cheer, and wishing you all a happy and safe holiday weekend/week ahead! ❄️ SUMMARY:

"Soho was uncharacteristically empty. As the wind calmed a bit, the streets were as quiet as the snow that fell upon them, not a single person in sight.

A good thing, too. No one should be caught dead in this weather.

The bookshop was wonderfully empty, and Aziraphale had spent the whole day doing as he pleased, knowing the weather would deter potential customers from sticking their noses in. Sure enough, he hadn’t had one person come in to bother him. He had been completely alone with his books all day, free to read, and watch the snow, and not worry about anyone dropping by unexpectedly.

But that thought didn’t thrill him as much as it usually would.

It was Christmas Eve. And he was alone.

Aziraphale didn’t mind being alone. In fact, he rather enjoyed it.

But tonight felt different. Tonight, as he had sat down for his annual re-read of 'A Christmas Carol', a melancholic feeling had washed over him, like he was meant to be doing something else at the moment. That was absurd, of course, he hadn’t made any particular plans, but something just felt…wrong.

Someone was missing."

Five Times Aziraphale and Crowley almost spent Christmas together, and one time they did.

Happy holidays, all!!! ❄️ ALSO stay tuned for the first chapter of a New Year’s fic coming December 26th!

Hi there thank you so much for your hard work guys we all appreciate it very much

Please can you give a big big fluff fic I mean a fic that's cute and very cute as you (that's not a flirt ) and have a cute words like "my dear" again thanks for your work

Hello. Pleeeeeeease please please check our #fluff tag where we have oodles of fluffy fics already recommended. Here are yet more to add to the collection...

A Picnic Proposal by Carimes_treehouse (G)

One year after they got together, they finally go on their long-awaited picnic. It had to be perfect. Crowley had a plan, after all.

---

The movement caught Aziraphale’s gaze and he tilted his head in interest, locking eyes with him. “It’s um… a present. Anniversary present.”

Dance with me, my old friend by amerande (T)

During the taxi ride back to the bookshop, Aziraphale considered the many ways in which he’d left the Ritz over the years. The first time: contented and excited to tell Crowley about it, to perhaps share it with him. Several subsequent times: alone, but with the delightful memory of an afternoon or evening basking in Crowley’s company and attention. After that: with Crowley, walking through London, to the bookshop or to a museum, talking and sharing time. Once, eleven years ago: in Crowley’s Bentley for a night of drinking and plotting to avert the apocalypse.

This was the first time they’d taken a cab together.

a simple harmony by shoebox_addict (T)

“I can’t believe you’ve kept that stored away all this time.”

“I’ve kept it all, angel,” said Crowley.

At that, Aziraphale’s heart caught in his throat. He had no idea how to respond to something so kind, so sweet. He searched for the right words, but all he found was, “Oh, Crowley.”

Cupcakes and Camellias by CallipygianGoldfish (T)

It’s not quite a mid-life crisis that lands him in the middle of the countryside with a bakery on his hands, but on the other hand, it most definitely is. Kicked out of his bookshop by an irate but well-meaning friend, Aziraphale attempts negotiating life in a small village, baking piña colada bread, and duckpond dates.

When the new bakery owner moves in opposite his flower shop, Crowley doesn’t give it another thought, until he’s forced to go searching for his missing devil-cat. And well, if he spends the rest of the day in shock, can you blame him? Nobody said the new baker was positively gorgeous.

Do you have any idea by Enven (T)

He was hungry for anything he could get. Every tiniest scrap of attention Aziraphale gave him, everything that could at least potentially indicate that he enjoyed his company – Crowley would take it all, and shove it deep into the dimness of his mind to hopelessly reminisce about it later.

or: 5 times they pined like crazy, and 1 time they didn't

I could....hunker down at your place by Angelica_Tree (G)

Inspired by the Good Omens: Lockdown special from 2020. It takes less than an hour after the phone call for Aziraphale to realize that he can't spend lockdown apart from Crowley. Crowley is more than happy to hunker down at the bookshop. Spending this much time together, they finally find the words that have escaped them for too long. And clear one very important misunderstanding out of the way.

- Mod D

#good omens #ineffable husbands #fluff #mod d

[serpercival]

Extrapolating from the Doctor Who jokes in Good Omens 2 (spoiler-free other than that, you know, they make a Doctor Who joke or two)

First of all, I firmly believe Aziraphale started watching the day the first episode came out in hopes of discovering good children's educational content for Heaven, was absolutely horrified by The Bit with the Rock, and stopped watching until 1983 when he learned that the TARDIS team now had a cricket-loving blonde Doctor and his wispy, rude, ginger sidekick. [Insert handwave-y explanation here about "you know, there are only so many faces that humans can have..."]

Then Twin Dilemma happens and Az stops watching again. Crowley, on the other hand, fucking loves the C. Baker Doctor despite refusing to acknowledge that he's ever watched the show before.

... they both like Seven.

Az definitely has an entire collection of mint condition EDAs/VNAs in the bookshop.

Neither of them give much of a shit when the show comes back until the 50th anniversary, which Crowley can't be bothered with but that Aziraphale is mildly excited for. Then, you know, he sees it and freaks out, shows it to Crowley, and Crowley very carefully puts it in the back of his brain for the next time he has access to a fez.

I also expect that Crowley kind of hates David Tennant. He has definitely been asked to sign things before. Every single time it happens, he very begrudgingly forges David's signature because he's pretty sure that Aziraphale would rather he made a kid happy over obeying fraud laws.

They're both excited for the 60th anniversary but neither of them will admit it to the other tbh

#good omens #doctor who #so the doctor who references huh
