I needed to get my thoughts out and fix the glaring problem.

Good Omens 3 spoilers/rant below

I don’t hate the finale. There are lots of things I loved about it. But it was rushed. Too many things were cut so some parts seemed incomplete. But it didn’t stay true to Aziraphale and Crowley’s characters. They wouldn’t have made a choice like that.

They love humanity, yes, but they love each other too. They would have had an emotional conversation. They would have held each other. They didn’t get their happy ending.

I actually liked Asa and Anthony and their meeting was adorable. But we barely know them. Where’s the resolution for the characters I already love and care about? Why did we have 6000 years of build up for nothing?

Well I wrote a short fixit. It’s not perfect. The finale stays exactly as is but we just get five more minutes - so we can have some closure and a little bit of hope that they’re out there watching over us. ❤️

I’m sure there are many more fanfic authors retelling this better than me but this helps. It lets me enjoy the parts I like and it doesn’t leave you feeling like your heart’s been ripped out like that canon ending.

David Tennant & Michael Sheen | An Ineffable Goodbye

[green-grin]

My opinion about GO3 is irrelevant but can we celebrate one excellent thing that came out of this 10 years roller fucking coaster : David Tennant and Michael Sheen. The fact that this story brought them together, that they and their respective people love hanging out, love working together. There is love. Here they are holding hands on their lil chairs at the end of it all. They are fantastic actors. I hope there will be more pieces of media with them in the future.

Goodbye goodbye, you were bigger than the whole sky ⭐️🌙

Nice ending you got there.

Shame if someone ruined it.

General Aziraphale

*just doing my job* Well, was there an alternative? Would 'choosing rebel side' make any difference? Make Aziraphale somehow 'better'? No. The sides were equally bad. Aziraphale and Crowley were both different. That's the point. Crowley had questions. And Aziraphale had love.

Aziraphale: “I can't believe it's over.” Michael: “And over in a glorious victory, Aziraphale. Quite outstanding.” Aziraphale: “Yes, I suppose so.” Michael: “At a cost, of course. How many did we lose in the last offensive?" Uriel: “About a hundred, I'm afraid. They took us by surprise." Aziraphale: "The whole thing was ghastly.” Uriel: “Aziraphale was inspiring and a remarkable strategist.” Aziraphale: “Just doing my job.” Michael: “The battle fought here, at the centre of all creation, turned the tide. They tried to gain control of the Eternal Flame, and they lost! Better tell the troops the good news, eh?” Crowley: “If you shout out or do anything to attract attention, you will be a dead angel. Do you understand? Give me the sword.” Aziraphale: “So you didn't actually have a weapon, then, when you were threatening me?” Crowley: “No. I lost it in the last battle.” Aziraphale: “Hello. I'm...” Crowley: “General Aziraphale, I know who you are. I saw you on the battlefield. I have a lot of questions, and nobody ever has the answers.” Aziraphale: “What's wrong? It may hurt, but... it'll help to staunch the wound a little. You know, I've spent the war smiting Rebel Angels. I've never done this before.” Crowley: “Should I say thank you?” Aziraphale: “Better not.” Crowley: “Thank you for the bandage.” Aziraphale: “Probably best if you don't, er... don't tell anyone how you got it. Good luck.”

And yes, I've noticed:

What is that supposed to mean? That people keep dying? You know, they do die in senseless ways and pointless wars and poverty in our universe too. What else matters if not trying to be kind?

May David and Michael laughing together as Aziraphale and Crowley in their Bentley be my Ritz-Ending of a wonderful series that has given me so much throughout the last three years and really deserved a better ending 💛

I am still processing the finale, but I liked it a lot. Sure, there were things I wished we got to see and things done a little differently, but as a whole it works and was a good ending. I am happy we got one, and while it should have been the 6eps, it's not. It had the silliness, and grand epic scenes, and a lot of heart-wrenching emotion.

I didn't want a human ending, but the way they did it makes sense. And takes out the toxicity of Heaven and Hell. But this ending, where they choose humanity, and then get to find each other and CHOOSE EACH OTHER over and over again, in every universe. I love it. (They chose "Time After Time" for a reason)

This scene was so adorable and awkwardly cute. I saw someone else say that human Crowley is just David Tennant, he didn't need to act anymore (I fully agree). I'm here for Asa and Anthony. Aziraphale and Crowley are still in there somewhere. Their souls will find each other every time.

It really is the most fanfiction ending, but look at those smiles. They are happy. And they got married!!! ^_^

You got your Death Note in my Good Omens!!!

Or

Perhaps Aziraphale should keep his cursed books under lock and key like he does for his Martha Stewart collection.
