#yknow i also don’t mind seperating s1 from s2 in my mind

Ngl I’m a little upset they changed the origins so that Aziraphale and Crowley met BEFORE Eden, when they were both angels. Like that scene was adorable and I get the whole point of it was to set up why Azi thought Crowley would want to go back to Heaven as an angel at the end of s2 but… if your major-cliffhanger-breakup scene only works because of something you shoehorned into the story that wasn’t originally there, does it really even have much value? Plus I liked when Eden was where they first met. It was interesting to see them form their Agreement and relationship and fall in love despite being “hereditary enemies” and coming from two completely different sides of a coin. Plus they were just so… innocent? Is that the right word? in that scene because they were two beings on opposite sides, trying to make sense of the jobs they were given and the plan God had for everything up ahead. Slowly falling in love with the Earth and each other. It was really sweet. But by putting in their NEW “meet-cute,” it changes that, and implies that Azi only fell in love with Crowley because he was previously an angel, not just because he was a “nice” demon and showed him a different side to things. (Also Crowley doing the wing thing just felt VERY on the nose idk how to feel abt that. But it was cute.) Although I will admit you could argue that Azi always saw him as previously an angel since that’s what Crowley, a demon, is by definition. And of course a lot can be said about how Aziraphale has always been manipulated by Heaven, and that finale was just showing how he needs to break free from their hold on him by himself before he can be with Crowley. I mean all in all I don’t have that much of an issue with this change, and it doesn’t even ruin my enjoyment of the series. It just kinda rubs me the wrong way and I don’t know why? Anyways, decisions were made this season and I don’t agree with all of them, but I still had a lot of fun watching it, and I have high hopes for s3 whenever that comes :)
