@aziraphale-did-that
Did you happen to bless or inspire James Veitch?
It really is amazing what humans may do with inspiration, though I must admit I’m absolutely baffled at the things he speaks about. Internet collections and spamy mails and what-not, that’s all completely over my head but I’m simply happy he was so well received.
aziraphale invented chapstick!
Well, Crowley invented lips drying out in the first place, so I had to counteract it.
I like to believe that Alessandro Manzoni got a little bit of angelic inspiration when he was writing the Promessi Sposi (I find it a really good book and it makes me emotional every time)
But of course! When I heard Manzoni was contemplating a novel about both the unwavering strength of love and the unification of a country through a standardised language, I couldn’t help but give him a bit of a nudge.
Crowley created rabbits and made them too cute so he made them assholes and detrimental to farmers for hell. Of course you took credit for the good things about bunnies like emotional support/therapeutic
Oh my goodness, no, Crowley takes all of the credit for rabbits--especially that ghastly rumor that a rabbit’s foot would bring good luck.
Aziraphale invented the "cute" response that humans get from looking at, for example, a puppy. Crowley often grumbles about it - ostensibly because it brings too much widespread joy to the humans he's supposed to be corrupting, but really? It's because it works especially well on him, and he hates it.
I like to tease Crowley and say that’s why he wears his glasses so often. Shhh!
I can only assume you gave some inspiration to JK Rowling way back when, only for her to turn out extremely human anyways
That tends to be the case with a great many authors, for good and for bad.
Radical concept: crowley actually runs this blog and Aziraphale runs crowley-did-this
Now, if this were true, I would have to--hypothetically and very politely--ask you to forget every word you just said in case a certain Archangel or Prince of Hell were listening.
But it isn’t true, so I shan’t ask.
Crowley invented 'spicy' plants in the hope of pissing off unfortunate early humans mistaking them for food. However, he didn't bank on the efforts of humans and Aziraphale making spice a delicious and highly prized addition to a meal! The latter naturally took credit, and is very proud of what he considers an unmitigated success. I'd also venture to suggest that both demon and angel are now enamoured of curry, but no doubt you'd be better qualified to answer that question, dear Principality?
Oh, yes, of course! Spices are my very favorite things, especially the ones in curry. However, I must admit I tend to eat Crowley’s portion as well since he is rather indifferent to cuisine of any sort.
Aziraphale invented exchanging kind smiles with strangers on the street
Particularly if they seem a bit sad.
he got my chemical romance back together
Now see here! Sowing international chaos with use of the Inter-Net is Crowley’s province, not mine. Although the surge of love I just felt across the Earth is both unexpected and quite pleasant.
Aziraphale is the reason for Project Linus.
As Project Linus is for the most part a secular organisation, I must give credit where it is due. That was the work of humans from inspiration to completion.
Aziraphale is the reason why, 99% of the time, the last stoplight I have to get through on my way home from school is green when I get to it
I do that when I can. Though occasionally I need to keep the miracles, shall we say, discreet, and must restrict them to slightly-longer-than-usual amber lights.
fun fact: if someone steals a library book you can sue them and get it back. its illegal.
Oh, but suing someone seems dreadfully aggressive! Not to mention exhausting. All that paperwork, legal fees, lawyers’ tendencies to have one foot in Hell... Not for me, I could simply represent myself--but for the defendant. Suppose they hadn’t stolen it intentionally but simply forgotten to return it? No, I simply couldn’t inflict a lawsuit on a human even if they stole a book.
Aziraphale invented babies sneezing! Just. The way their funny little faces scrunch up when they go “chu!”, and then they look adorably confused by this new and foreign experience!!! Also, the way babies’ cheeks squish to one side when they sleep and it’s just awwwwwww
One of the many reasons I adore babies. Another reason being that if a mother is holding her infant, she will be much less likely to pick up a book in my shop.
Aziraphale made this blog
However did you know!!
Re: the library thread: you realize your books were once horribly modern once, too?
Well, I...
That is...
Hmm.
Perhaps I have been going about this all wrong. Who’s to say that I have not dismissed a great work of art akin to Jean-Jacques Rosseau simply because it was written past 1912?
more words! misslieness: the feeling of solitariness that comes from missing something or someone you love (more sad, but i think someone missed crowley a little bit) petrichor: the pleasant smell that accompanies the first rain after a dry spell zeugma: using a word in more than one of its senses at the same time (i like this one quite a bit. it’s clever and i will defiantly be using it)
All lovely words!
