They've Gotta Be Loaded Dude
Like I dunno anything about Elizabethan Era clothing or anything like that but PHEW
Look at the way they showed up to the theatre! Dressed to the fucking niiines dude they look INCREDIBLE! The material has gotta be expensive cause look at the way everyone else is dreesssedd and then look at theeemm!
They just showed up casually looking so *chefs kiss*
There's gotta be a history buff that's also a G.O fan that can estimate the price of the clothes if they were created back then
AGHH Aziraphales cute little Ruffff and Crowleys glassesss eeeeeehehehee!
Okay This Might Be Stupid: A Comparison of Adam Young and Aziraphale for Clarity Sake
Now I don't mean a comparison of their characters to say one was better than the others. It's more so a comparison of their personal relationships with Heaven and Hell. A comparison of how those relationships/connections formed their most impactful decisions with incredibly powerful beings.
Now...lets start with Adam Young and his relationship with Hell.
...crickets
It doesn't exist. Adam Young had literally no relation to hell other than Satan being his biological father. He had his friends and his family and Hogback Woods. Nobody in Hell really came up to talk to him and Adam didn't KNOW he was the son of Satan either until he started coming into his power OR until the devil showed up.
Adam Young has no connection to hell aside from Biology, and Hell has no connection to him. Of course he was able to stand up to his Father and Heaven and Hell and his own Destiny.
Because he's so brave- I love Adam so much
Aziraphale and Crowleys talk with him gave him a bit more confidence
HELL HAS NO HOLD ON HIM
They couldn't sway him even if he wanted to. Beelzebub TRIED sure offering to him that he'd get to rule the world. But he didn't want it anymore. He was able to break away from what was written and make his own Destiny.
Now...Aziraphale and Heaven.
Heaven has so much hold on Aziraphale- it's something else.
Emotionally, Physically, Mentally- Heaven is his foundation and fundamentals. They fed him the most rigid and incorrect ideas and lies and when he starts breaking from the mold they reprimand and belittle him until he's back into the shape they want him in.
They can watch him whenever they want. They already watch his miracles and got upset for having too many "frivolous" ones. They can pick and choose whatever they wish to do to/with him. He knew NOTHING of Jobs trials until the day it happened and the acted as though he was an idiot for not understanding.
HEAVEN has a hold on Aziraphale. Oh they have the strongest hold on Aziraphale- millions of years in the making. So strong that we can see the indent lines from their cold callous fists in Aziraphales words and ideals throughout history.
So of course the Metatron could come down, manipulate Aziraphale, and get EXACTLY what he wanted for him. OF COURSE it's that easy for them to do.
When it's said Aziraphale had no choice- we don't mean the Metaton tied him down or beat his ass and screamed "GO TO HEAVEN! NOW!"
It means his going to Heaven was NEVER a choice to begin with. The Metatron did not come down from HEAVEN to ask a yes or no question. He wasn't gonna leave without a souvenir- the tartan wearing Angel made of the clay heaven can mold however they like.
Oftentimes when a parent asks you to do something- it is not a question. It is a statement- an order- formed as a question for MAYBE the sake of politeness. But there is no NO option.
When the METATRON comes down from Heaven and offered you the position of Supreme Archangel so perfectly and carefully gift wrapped and catered towards you there is no NO option. There is no version of that conversation where Aziraphale would have said no.
So...can we stop calling Aziraphale an idiot or an asshole or something for doing what was set in stone the moment the Metatron walked into the bookshop.
TOODLEOO!
A.J. Crowley Headcanon
My personal silly willy G.O. headcanon is: The only reason Crowley made himself the name A.J. Crowley was simply because he couldn't stand by and let Aziraphale one up him with his fancy human name AND a middle initial too. Not on his watch. He's good at playing Human too!
And I think in the moment he made the name he forgot that the middle name actually had to BE something and not just an initial.
"Nice is a Four Letter Word!"
I always find that part of the wall slam so funny. He gets so worked up when Aziraphale calls him kind or nice. But him saying "I'm a demon I'm not nice! Nice is a four letter word-" is just so random to me cause what does the letter count have to do with anything babe.
Aziraphale being so unfazed is so funny too.
But then I ruined it for myself by thinking "Y'know he probably reacts like that due to whatever he was put through after Edinburgh. I can also assume that they more than likely engage in the arrangement again after Edinburgh either. It's not the fact that he's nice that works him up- he's probably aware he's nice. He just doesn't anyone to see it or acknowledge it or draw attention to it cause then HE has to acknowledge it for himself and it might call the attention of Hell."
Like
If my whole job was not being nice, and the consequences for being nice was years and years of torture, if my cute angel hubby called me nice I'd start saying some random shit too to get him to hush too.
I love hate you Crowley. You're the nicest meanest evilest demon I know. Remember when you destroyed my home three times? Mmyup you're the most vile and despicable one out there babe.
I was just blabbering huh
Any Mods Out There? 👀
Do you like Good Omens and Alternative Fashion/Fashion Subcultures? We want you!
I had an idea for a semi-casual Good Omens x Alt Fashion event. It would probably include artists, writers, and anyone else who'd like to participate posting within a set timespan and those posts being compiled on one blog/in a collection on ao3/etc.
Unfortuantely, I doubt I could run such an event at the moment. That's where you come in! If you enjoy Good Omens & alternative fashion of any type, and are interested in running such an event or being a mod, please. Do that! Just make sure to let me know so I can spread the word to anyone interested!
If you are wondering what "alternative fashion" includes, it'd be anything considered out of the norm! From gyaru (and its many beautiful subcultures) to scene to fairy grunge to punk, anything is fair game!
