2 Days Until Good Omens TV show premiere!
@neil-gaiman Found the bookshop! Unfortunately today they are not letting anyone in early but I saw the Bentley! :)
are we not going to talk about the random angel across the street
AJ Crowley and Harry Potter bump into each other in public:
Harry Potter: Oops, sorry about that.
Crowley: No, it was my fault, don’t worry about it.
Public: *stares at the two men making strange hissing noises at each other*
Both: Wait…
I need this fic immediately
Someone passing, whose business this whole affair was not, said “Speak English, this is England for fuck’s sake!”
The young man and Crowley turned as one and hissed at the person, who suddenly remembered an urgent and important errand elsewhere and ran off to sort it.
Then they turned back towards each other. The young man scratched the back of his head. “Um, this is awkward,” he said, in English, “I don’t run into this often. On the street. Or… Ever. Actually.” He had casually laid a hand on his hip, and Crowley was suddenly sure that there was a wand concealed in that pocket.
Crowley remembered that it was very common in England for serpent speech to be considered a trait of evil. Which, well… anyway. “It’s not common,” Crowley allowed. “Special circumstances all around, I’m sure.” He tried to think of a good way to defuse the situation. “Fancy a pint?”
The young man looked relieved. “Yeah.”
“Crowley,” he said, offering a hand.
“Harry.”
“C’mon, I know a pub nearby. First round’s on me.”
If Harry was surprised by being led to the Cauldron Bottom, he didn’t show it. It was one of the few wizard pubs not attached to Diagon Alley in London- they were a growing population, but still unusual. It was middle of the afternoon and there were a few regulars at the bar, but it was otherwise quiet.
Crowley nodded to the one-eyed barkeep, who nodded back, and then gave a friendlier wave to Harry. “Evenin’, Mr. Crowley, Mr. Potter,” she said.
“Room in the back open, Jane?” Harry asked. “We’ve got some business to discuss.”
Jane nodded. “Usuals for ya both?”
They nodded.
“Go on back, I’ll be right there.”
I made this post so long ago, and this is such a great response <3 Thank you!!!
you’ve gotta stat romanticizing your life. you gotta start believing that your morning commute is cute and fun, that every cup of coffee is the best you’ve ever had, that even the smallest and most mundane things are exciting and new. you have to, because that’s when you start truly living. that’s when you look forward to every day.
live your life like a ghibli movie where literally everything is charming and beautiful
Good advice
