ghost-of-an-italian-partisan asked:

you're a fan of neil gaiman if i remember correctly, are you excited for the new good omens miniseries?

Hi, yes, you’re right - I love Neil Gaiman but - I apologize in advance for this blasphemy - I much prefer magic realism to humour, which is why I never managed to get into Terry Pratchett’s books. I tried several times, but maybe it’s not the right moment yet.  So, well - I liked Good Omens, but my true favourites of his would be stuff like The Ocean at The End of The Lane or Neverwhere? 

But still, it’s a very good book and David Tennant’s going to be there! And Michael Sheen! I adore both of them, and I can’t wait to see what they made of Crowley and Aziraphale! After years of neglect and ridicule and having to scuttle at the very back of bookstores to even find fantasy books, it’s great that we’re finally celebrating these stories, and now that GoT is ending, I hope TPTB will decide to pour their money on other fantasy books.

ask good omens neil gaiman actual god neil gaiman yeah okay my tag kind of gives my opinion away :P his essays are also very good he's an interesting guy anyway italy's particularly bad at this isn't it? when i was reading books in translation finding fantasy books was a pain there would be one out of five in a series some would be translated by different people in fact sometimes i think that's why i got into translation because when i was 16 i finally found a book i'd been looking for for 5 years only it was translated by a different person and everything about it was wrong reading it was like wading through a marsh i was more mosquitoes than person at the end

I can’t stop thinking about Aziraphale arriving in Paris too late to interfere and thus being forced to simply stand there with the mourning crowd, in front of the burning Notre-Dame, observing towers tumbling down, flames devouring one of culture’s finest monuments that once, so long ago, he watched being built.

Nothing, I believe, except maybe being a witness to the burning of Library of Alexandria, would make him feel so ancient, so old and, yet, despite it all, despite all of his many abilities, long life and experience, so powerless…

azirafuck

also listen I know why I’m crying in the club rn and it’s because aziraphale and crowley are our dads

because whatever it is that they love about earth exists purely because they taught curiosity and empathy to adam and eve

scientists be out there drinking millions of years old water that tastes like shit thanks to crowley and people be in the streets celebrating and supporting different sexualities thanks to aziraphale

yeah they didnt do shit except getting drunk and making bad decisions in the book but they sure made sure there was something worth fighting for

good omens im done bye i stayed under the sun for too long my brain is boiling
