The Altar of Aziraphale @aziraphale-altar - Tumblr Blog

Very happy that s3 once again showed Aziraphale being the best of the best on the show. He was constantly, forcefully and wrongly berated, and yet he was right. He smiled and worked hard, even when no one believed in him. He didn't want to gloat, he didn't want the glory. He just wanted the best for everybody, and thats SO important to me.

I always believed in him ☺️💛

Honest (SPOILER) thoughts regarding the GO finale, I think a valuable piece of writing people are kinda overlooking is the INCREDIBLE subversion of their main motivations

Like we as the audience are lead to believe from the start that Crowley is this jaded, cynical little fucker who’s fond of one person and one person only. The typical “nothing in this world matters except you” grumpy who doesn’t give a shit about a universe that rejected him. Aziraphale, likewise, is pretty easily seen as the bigger picture guy, it’s obvious he loves Crowley deeply but it’s the mission of the larger world, the good of the people, that draws his time and energy- he chooses that responsibility more than Crowley. These are the roles we’ve seen them play and the archetypes we’ve kinda locked them in to. It matches with their grumpy vs sunshine attitudes, their aesthetics etc

Then in s2 we started noticing some cracks in it. We’ve met Angel Crowley who is a beautiful sunshiny dreamer who cares so deeply about the gorgeous world around him. Aziraphale starts to get a bit wrapped up in his own self interest from time to time, caring more about his bookshop or Crowley or even Jim than his larger mission. These little moments added depth to their characters, but ultimately didn’t shake our ideas of them. But THEN-

When they were asked by God what they would save, everything in the world has been stripped from them. The universe is lost- all that remains is each other and the final question of “what in the whole of existence matters to you most?” And we think we know what they’ll say, we think the way we’ve been taught all this time- Crowley is the selfish lover and Aziraphale is the heartbroken rejector.

But instead we meet their cores. We meet the truest stripped down versions of themselves and we learn the truth. Aziraphale picks Crowley. His lover, his life, the being that completes him. He makes the selfish, or loving, choice, no matter what it means to the world. And Crowley- Crowley is crying for the world. He is so utterly helplessly desperate for humanity to have their chance that he’s willing to throw away everything out of his sheer love for them. We’ve met the old part of him again, the artist and the lover, the selfless one he’s had within him all along. And for Aziraphale we’ve finally met the lover in him too, the one who’s finally willing to put his love for Crowley above all else.

I don’t know but I think it’s absolutely beautiful to get to know characters that you thought had these black and white motivations, only to discover that when it all comes down to it, they are capable of throwing everything we assumed about them out the window. There’s no black and white or even grey, but a whole world of mixed up colours and choices that make them whole. The sinful Angel and the selfless demon to the last.

One day, maybe in the final days of their human life, Asa and Anthony feel complied to pick up that snowglobe thing that has been on their mantelpiece for the last twenty years, gathering dust.

He doesn't know why, but today, Asa feels like turning it upside down, and watch the snow fall on that red bookshop front.

And then, just like that, just with a blink of his eyes, eons of memories come back. He turns to his husband.

"Oh," he says. "Crowley..."

"Hello, angel."

Five seconds after the heat death of the universe...

God and Satan are playing chess in the void. An angel and a demon appear with a small "pop". They're holding hands.

GOD: So how did that work out for you?

AZIRAPHALE: We found each other in every lifetime.

GOD: So what now? We still have eternity.

CROWLEY (excitedly): That was awesome! Can we go round again?

thinking about the difference between the GO2 and GO3 heaven outfits and that it was canonically Aziraphale that put him in that gay-ass outfit and put those streaks in his hair in GO3 because Crowley didn’t have miracles

Crowley in S2: if I have to blend in up here I’m going to look dumb as fuck

Aziraphale in S3: if you have to blend in up here you’re going to look gay as fuck
