  • me: can you imagine how much Crowley's bitching about plants Aziraphale had to deal with when he was a gardener?
  • mom: oh god, he wouldn't stand sight of one misbehaving plant
  • (later)
  • mom: you know what? I think he was sneaking to garden when Aziraphale wasn't watching to terrorize plants so Aziraphale won't be sad if plants are horrible

can i just say on a serious note though that as a gay religious person Good Omens is really v.v.special to me. 

1)  You’ve got Aziraphale, trying his best to be  an angel and serve the almighty and do good, but he just doesn’t quite fit in with the community . He’s not welcome bc he’s different, he stands out, he asks difficult questions. And no matter what God might actually be planning he’s got to navigate a bunch of self-righteous, ruthless characters in order to do what he think’s is right. 

2) On the other side of the coin you’ve got Crowley, who to me, really represents the grey, vague feeling that comes with trying to belong to two different, often  opposing communities. He’s been cast out and abused by both sides for who he is. His identity is out of his hands. He doesn’t have a place because he’s been excluded and he’s lonely. There is a definite loneliness in this experience. 

BUT!! They find solace and companionship in each other! They know what they think is right, they know what kind of people they want to be and they enable each other to live their truth! They don’t need anyone’s permission anymore.

I’m so glad that the tv series was so loyal to the book, but i’m even gladder that it really emphasized the tender, healing, liberating nature of Aziraphale and Crowley’s relationship. When I was a confused gay kid in a conservative rural church, I really could have used that kind of validation and representation. 

If an angel and a demon can fall in love and be happy then so can I

I started good omens because it seemed a nice and well done series with a plot that was exactly my jam and without any kind of expectation or solid notions about the characters whatsoever and now I find out that it’s actually a very not subtle gay romance between a sweet extra demon and a soft sassy angel and I’m crying my heart out and selling my soul to yet another ship I can’t even-
