Hello. It’s me again, this time with a self administering dose of confusion: what would an Angel mating dance look like? Assuming they behave similarly to birds?

kedreeva answered:

Considering that there’s only one angel that ever learned a dance at all, I would imagine it would necessarily be the gavotte.

That being said, not all birds dance. Consider the bowerbird, for example, who builds elaborate nests out of things it collects, usually of the same color or substance:

Aziraphale is obviously making his extremely good nest out of books he has collected. And I mean, it works, right? Crowley keeps coming back to it, anyway.

Hello and happy Pride month! I loved reading and watching Good Omens, as well as a few of your other books (I particularly love the short story about the elderly woman and the holy grail). I'm wondering if any of your stories have openly LGBT+ characters, or maybe if you could recommend a novel you particularly enjoyed? As a lesbian it can be difficult to find fantasy/sci-fi stories with characters like you who don't end in tragedy. Thank you!

neil-gaiman answered:

Well, Death: The Time of Your Life is probably the best of them. Or at least, it’s the one that I got the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Comic Book for.  You’ll like Hazel and Foxglove, I hope; although the impetus is that Foxglove is a closeted rock performer (based loosely on people I knew in the ‘90s) and I hope the culture has changed enough to push that into the past. (I’m not actually certain if it’s available on its own now, or only in The Death Deluxe Edition: https://amzn.to/31F3U6w)

There are LGBT+ characters all the way through Sandman, and you’ll also find queer and LGBT+ characters, most of whom have happy endings, in American Gods, Coraline, and Neverwhere. (Murder Mysteries, a short story and graphic novel,adapted by the amazing P. Craig Russell,  has some angelic lovemaking in it, although they are technically angels, not humans.)

“Alle Leute haben eine Nähmaschine, ein Radio, einen Eisschrank und ein Telefon. Was machen wir nun? fragte der Fabrikbesitzer. Bomben, sagte der Erfinder. Krieg, sagte der General. Wenn es nicht anders geht, sagte der Fabrikbesitzer.”

Everybody has a sewing machine, a radio, a refrigerator, and a telephone. What shall we make next? asked the factory owner.
Bombs, said the inventor
War, said the general.
If there is nothing else, said the factory owner.
