Loved that Andy Hamilton got a lil cameo in Good Omens as the voice of the usher of Hell, I’m assuming as a nod to Old Harry’s Game

Would have preferred it if he’d voiced actual Satan tho and made the GO/OHG crossover canon lmao

I haven’t read or watched Good Omens yet, but I’ve seen so much fan material about those two idiots who’ve been pining over each other for 6000 years that I could create a blog about them and I’m sure nobody would realize I’m a fake fan

I’m here to over-analyse shit again, and today it’s costume coloring. Is this a stretch? Probably. Do I find it intriguing nonetheless? Most definitely. 

The thing is, I saw a post the other day talking about Aziraphale’s pure white outfit after he’s discorperated and sent to Heaven. And it occurred to me that he starts out in pure white robes in the garden of Eden, but that the outfit he wears through most of the series is not. I wondered if there might be significance to that, so I took a look. Here’s what I found.

Aziraphale dresses in pretty much pure white from Eden through Rome. He transitions to silvers and blues in Arthurian through Shakespeare times. Starting in France, his outfits become mostly beige, tan, and brown with tartan accents, usually a variation on the same style, with the darkest of them being during the Blitz, where the darker browns are more prevalent (I think?), before returning to the standard tan in the following years. The last of his costumes, the Heaven/discorperation one, is again pure white.

I might be reading into things too much, but here’s the conclusion I drew: Aziraphale’s outfit coloring changes coincide with his “falling” (not becoming more demon in this case, but more human). He is in white up until he tempts Crowley to earthly pleasures (oysters in Rome). Then he’s put in transitional silver - still shiny and bright, but now superficial (I know, armor is usually silver, but Crowley’s is black. I’m willing to bet they could have done white if they’d wanted to). By France, he’s more human than angel. He’s embraced the neutral colors over pure whites: he himself is less “pure,” messier (”frivolous miracles,” getting arrested over his desire for food, letting a human die, etc.). He settles into a comfortable place in his pseudo-humanity - darkest in the Blitz, when many of us speculate he comes close to Falling for real - until he is discorperated. In Heaven’s last bid to claim him as a proper angel, their soldier, Aziraphale is put in pure white. Lifeless in the literal and figurative sense. And he rejects it, and Adam puts him in neutrals again, puts him back in a place of pseudo-human comfort, where he wants to be (only this time, with a greater appreciation for it, I imagine). 

My point is, I feel like there’s an argument to be made that Aziraphale’s costume changes might have color symbolism tied to his emotional growth. Maybe there are exceptions I’m forgetting about, or maybe I’m trying to put meaning where there is none, but that’s what I saw. And I think that’s pretty cool.

If Aziraphale would get himself a rubber duck in a hell-bath after all…

hey I’m still obsessed with the idea of John “everything is pain, this world is filled with nothing but evil and misery that I’m doomed to spend my days fighting” Constantine existing in the same universe as Good Omens, as Crowley, a demon who has existed before the world even began who’s just kicking around London in his vintage car, crying over Golden Girls and having fancy lunches with an actual literal angel.

Crowley’s jumping up and down that he’s evil, that he’s been corrupting humans since the dawn of time, look his jacket even says Bad Bitch on it. And John is just sighing, putting away his exorcism equipment like “Mate I don’t know how to tell you that you’re the tamest most dumbass demon I’ve ever seen and you’d trip over your snakeskin boots to stop a baby from crying.”

And eventually become awkward not friends, just occasionally meeting up, smoking and complaining about the state of Hell these days. Crowley occasionally points out nasty demons who really ought to be put in their place and John lets the celestial pair be. Its a weird relationship and neither seek to define it further.

I know Anathema was confused af when she first met Crowley and Aziraphale, but she also must be so thrown off to find Crowley wearing shades in the middle of the night

the effect of the black and white bleeding together as they transfer back is actually very cool – those moments when they’re both more grey than they are either other extreme, which is quite fitting, really, especially by the end.
