No matter what difficulties they face, they always find back to each other and are not lonely anymore.

No matter how "strange" they seem to humans and the Dark Fey, they balance each other out and find happiness together. • I did use AI tools for masking in the wedding and hug scenes.

Good Omens 3 SPOILERS - I Want You (Version 2 Fix-It, partially ai-generated)

Good Omens 3 SPOILERS - I Want You (Version 2 Fix-It, partially ai-generated)

Like many of us in the fandom I was devastated by the finale. No disrespect to anyone who enjoyed it, personally I did not, feeling betrayed by the end message. But I will try not to ramble too much and channel the rage and sadness into an alternative ending which, in my opinion, aligns more with the life-affirming message of the original story / season 1. Where OUR world deserves saving and it is precisely our differences and troubles that make us work together and make the existing world better by it. Not throw it away without connection to the old one because the magic is gone forever and never existed in the first place. What the magic system represents is exactly that no matter who we are and where we came from, we can make a difference if we try and cooperate and be open to each other. The whole point and humor of the original was that humans ALREADY HAD FREE WILL. That they are capable of everyday acts that are so much more evil or good that anything heaven or hell come up with. That's how Crowley earned his status and relative protection in hell: by pretending to be responsible for horrible human evil, while his own influence was actually minor inconveniences. And he got away with it for millennia!

(End of my rant, on with the plot!)

So in this version a bookshop full of blank books with the reality-altering power of writing and the "our miracles are stronger when we do them together because we love the world and each other"-love between Aziraphale and Crowley actually means something.

Angels and demons can decide for themselves what they want to do without God and Satan pushing them to battle and destruction by their propaganda.

Not shown: Muriel and Eric start a sort-of worker union, so the angels and demons who genuinely want to do office work and have fun with it are not exploited again.

Aziraphale and Crowley save THEIR world and retire, living in a cottage AS ANGEL AND DEMON. Far away from everyone to have some well-earned rest and peace and let no neighbors be bothered by the occasional occult phenomenon side-product when they enjoy themselves and close enough to keep an eye on humans as guardians of Earth to be part of a little community.

@fellshish's posts were a huge emotional help for me to sort through, order and articulate my mess of emotions directly after watching the finale. Thank you so much!

[fellshish]

First off, I just want to thank you for getting out here and sharing your thoughts with all of us. I’ve been in a lot of pain and feeling all sorts of things since Season 3 dropped, and seeing your posts and reactions genuinely helped me feel less alone. I think it helped me move through this faster than I would have if I’d been sitting with it all by myself. So thank you for that.

And I also wanted to offer some of what’s kind of occurred to me over the past few days, both from what you’ve said and from trying to work through my own feelings about all of this.

Because yes. Season 3 did not deliver for a lot of us.

I had a whole wishlist before the season dropped. I made a bingo board. I had all these little hopes and moments I wanted to see happen. And then to watch none of them happen, or to watch something like the South Downs happen in this really convoluted, painful way…it hurt and it horrified me.

And look, Asa and Anthony are cute. I genuinely wish them the best. But they’re not Aziraphale and Crowley. They’re not the angel and demon we knew. They’re not the beings who carried six thousand years of memory and history and longing and trauma and devotion and complexity. And seeing these new versions receive the ending that our boys deserved felt, to me, like a slap in the face.

All of those feelings are valid.

And when people lean into the grief and say things like, “They’re gone now,” or “They never existed,” I understand where that’s coming from. Because yes, in-universe, they may be gone. And that grief is real.

But in our universe, we know them. Okay? We still know them. Nothing can undo the years we spent loving them, understanding them, creating for them, finding ourselves through them.

I was scrolling through my camera roll this morning, through old TikToks and edits and memes and theories and screenshots and fanart from before Season 3 came out, and there was just so much joy there. So much love. So much creativity. So much community. Nothing can undo that.

And honestly, I don’t think we should throw Season 2 away, either.

I know a lot of people are saying, “Season 1 is all we have now,” and if that’s how someone wants to engage with the story going forward, that’s completely fair. But Season 2 gave us something really important. It gave us validation.

There were so many people in my life who told me Aziraphale and Crowley weren’t romantic. That I was reading too much into it. That I was seeing things that weren’t there. And then Season 2 happened, and they kissed. They loved each other openly and textually and undeniably.

And I know this sounds silly to some people, but it mattered to me. It mattered to know that I was right. That I could recognize queer love when I saw it. That this thing I had understood and felt so deeply since I was nineteen was real.

Because so many queer stories go unacknowledged. So many ships stay forever trapped in subtext or ambiguity. But Aziraphale and Crowley loved each other canonically. Nothing Season 3 does can take that away from us.

That mattered. Season 2 mattered.

It mattered so much that I literally wrote a (published!) article about the legality of fanfiction and transformative works using Good Omens as an example of what happens when canon validates a fandom’s interpretation. After Season 1, something like 43,000 fics were written before Season 2 came out. Between Seasons 2 and 3, in even less time, over 31,000 more were written.

Thirty-one thousand.

That’s enormous. That’s not nothing. That’s love. That’s people seeing themselves in these characters and building something beautiful together.

And somewhere in those stories is an ending that will speak to us. Somewhere in those stories is the emotional resolution we needed. Somewhere in those stories is a version of the South Downs that feels warm and true and earned.

Because this is what fandom does.

We write fic. We make art. We analyze. We transform. We take what hurt us and make something beautiful out of it. Not because canon “doesn’t matter,” but because our connection to these characters was never passive in the first place.

At a certain point, characters stop belonging only to canon. They become part of all the people who loved them.

And Aziraphale and Crowley are loved. Deeply.

So yes, we can be angry. Honestly, I think we should be angry. I’m genuinely happy for the people who loved this ending, and I wish I was one of them. But for those of us who didn’t, I don’t think this is the end of anything.

I think this is a catalyst.

I think there is going to be an unbelievable amount of art and fic and analysis and creativity and emotion born from this pain. I think people are going to spend years lovingly reconstructing these characters in ways that honor who they were to us.

And maybe that’s part of the legacy, too.

Because we’ve already seen Aziraphale and Crowley fall in love a thousand times. We’ve seen them choose each other over and over and over again across thousands of stories written by people who cared about them deeply.

We’ve seen their happy ending before.

And we will see it again.

These characters are ours now. Your version of Aziraphale and Crowley, the ones you carry in your heart, the ones who mattered to you, the ones who helped you understand yourself or feel less alone or believe in love a little more — those versions still exist.

Only if you allow yourself to give them up will they truly disappear.

And they don’t have to.

We will heal. We will be okay. 

waittttt i think you’re on to something here. canonically we are not living in the ‘new universe’ that god created in which the angel and the demon never existed, precisely because we know they existed

anyway thank you for your thoughtful and lovely ask which is a giant love letter to fandom

we love aziraphale and crowley and they’re ours to play with forever

[camelottree638]

Thank you for giving use hope and strength to cotinue with our own stories and interpretations to keep OUR universe (the original one) alive! 🥲🥰🥰🥰

[fellshish]

i’m angry again bc what do you mean he submitted the whole world to destruction AT THE HANDS OF THE SAME CRUEL MOTHER FIGURE WHO CAST HIM OUT AND TRAUMATIZED HIM FOR WANTING TO SAVE THE WORLD IN THE FIRST PLACE. what do you mean SHE got to destroy him. AND HE LET HER????? his whole existence is defined by defying her WHAT DO YOU MEANNNNN. what do you mean she WINS and he LETS her. MY crowley who rants at the sky about how the world deserves to be saved and shouldn’t be tested to destruction would never. MY crowley who rants at random humans about how killing yourself is “NOT ON!!!” would never. we ride at dawn

EXACTLY WHAT WAS THAT WHOLE NOT ON SPEECH ABOUT 🔫🔫🔫🔫

[grey-and-green]

What’s the point

I am trying to move past the grief of the final outcome to figure out why this season/episode felt so…off. Like, I think the characters deserved better, but the audience deserved better too.

I can’t say that the production team didn’t care, or that no one put love into making this, and I’m not disregarding the fact that they had significant barriers to getting this made at all. But I can say that, to me, S3 felt like it could have been written by someone with only a surface level understanding of previous canon.

A good narrative doesn’t have to ONLY repeat the themes in the previous seasons, and it doesn’t have to go exactly the way it “should” go based on what was already set up, but it DOES have to keep the things that came before relevant. It still needs to be connected to its own canon and should not just preserve central themes but build on them. Not abandon them. I want to be surprised by an ending because it was creative and took the story I knew and made it better and more interesting than my armchair critic brain could have come up with. I don’t want to be surprised by an ending because it just doesn’t make any sense.

I can accept a tragic ending where the heroes don’t win. Good doesn’t always conquer evil, sometimes people die, and endings are allowed to be sad. But I would still like it to be done thoughtfully. Self-sacrifice has to actually affect the outcome, otherwise it’s just death.

So what foundation of plot, theme, and character development was set up in S1 & 2 that felt fully thrown out? Well…quite a lot actually.

S1 was all about avoiding the war, and avoiding the apocalypse. The finale of S1 was Adam refusing to be the antichrist, refusing to play his role, standing down the devil and saying “no, I’m not going to end the world, I am going to reset the world in a way that works for me and the people I care about and I’m not going to play your games. You, Satan, are irrelevant.”

The apocalypse in S3 could have been the mirror of the first one. Like, it’s super set up to be thematically similar. Jesus is the son of God (rather than the son of Satan) and everyone expects him to end the world, but he doesn’t want to.

But instead of getting to face his celestial parent and say “no, I don’t want to play your games and I don’t want to kill anyone, and you can’t make me”….he just disappears without any significant interaction with central characters. Joshua/Jesus’s relationship with Harry the Fish doesn’t affect the plot (unlike Adam’s human relationships which are central to his decision-making). His divine powers don’t affect the plot (unlike how Adam was able to use the powers given to him with evil intentions and repurpose them for good). In fact, this character who was set up to be pretty dang important simply doesn’t affect the plot at all. He just takes up screen time and then vanishes.

It’s also set up that, as the mirror of the first apocalypse, God is just as bad as Satan. That it doesn’t matter which team tries to end the world, the outcome is the same. Specifically, “when heaven ends life here on Earth, it’ll be just as dead as if hell ended it”. Remember that???

A lot of time, actually, has previously been devoted to the audience and the characters accepting that god is not good, there is no side of good, and divine intervention is callously indifferent at best, and murderous at worst.

So then why have the apocalypse caused not by god or heaven, but by one rogue & grumpy angel? The Great Plan didn’t end the world, god didn’t smite anyone, and the Second Coming that Aziraphale fought so hard to change wasn’t actually relevant. It’s just Micheal being a bit of a shit.

Not only is god not put in the role of the bad guy here, but she’s actively called on to save the day. Because by asking her to reset the new universe, that’s exactly what they’re doing. Praying to her to fix things.

Which fully abandons all our character growth. In S3, they’ve learned nothing. It bothers me so much that at the very end, any one of the shared experiences or their human knowledge or their relationship could have been brought in as a way to find a resolution. But what do they do instead? They summon god and ask her for help. The same damn thing Crowley said wouldn’t matter in S1 and that Aziraphale tried and failed to do in S1.

Why show that them writing in a book has the power to summon god herself, but then have their shared history and memories and time on Earth experiencing world history not be relevant? Why show that power just to abandon it and cede power back to god?

Why have god talk about life on Earth like a story in a book that just ends, for Aziraphale’s love and knowledge of books to not be relevant?

Why show Aziraphale outwitting the mafia boss with human skill (and it feeling like a callback to the S2 magic trick with the Polaroid) if they don’t even TRY to find a human way to fix things at the end? They don’t look for a loophole, they don’t even attempt to outsmart anyone.

WHY, after all the struggle to be on their own side and the fight to show that heaven and hell both suck and that divine intervention is bad, WHY just let the end of the world be “solved” with divine intervention? Why just have god end up still in charge and using HER powers to “fix” things rather than letting the characters fix things themselves? Why did all the lessons we learned along the way have zero impact on anything at all?

A HUGE recurring point is that any time god directly intervenes with anything, people die and it’s bad. God wanted to punish Adam and Eve, God sent the great flood, God wanted to kill Job’s children.

Learning this lesson is a CENTRAL part of Aziraphale’s character development. We were shown this many times.

God being cruel is CENTRAL to Crowley’s trauma and his desire to save humans. We were shown this many times.

So then WHY THE FUCK, at the end, do we regress to “ok god, I trust you to keep your word and reset things the right way, and I’m willing to die for that”?

Why even bother with character growth if none of it makes a difference in the end? Why give characters skills and bonds and experiences if, in the end, blind fate and a higher power get to win.

How did we end up with cruel tragedy?

THIS

[yetrop]

So. That ending.

(Obligatory disclaimer that these are just my own thoughts. I know this was a polarizing finale, and I don't want to pretend that my opinion is the only correct one. Also, as long as everyone stays civil, I'd love to hear other people's perspectives in the tags/comments!)

I honestly liked the first 70 minutes of the finale. This might be a bit of a hot take since I've seen a lot of people say it's totally off/poorly written/etc, but personally given the short time frame and the fact that I knew it would be rushed going into it, I was pleasantly surprised.

Some things I liked:

Aziraphale snapping at Sandalphon and the other angels

Muriel and Eric

Pathetic drunk Crowley

Jesus was so likeable and I wanted more of him (never thought I'd be saying that as an atheist, but here we are.)

Aziraphale claiming he's given up food and then immediately caving when he sees the dim sum

Crowley looking after Aziraphale's bookshop and being willing to sacrifice the Bentley for it

Aziraphale being an absolute legend at cryptic crosswords and saving the Bentley

Callback to the apology dance

Crowley’s angel outfit (which Aziraphale chose for him!)

Pointy teeth Aziraphale

Aziraphale's stupid long haircut

What I DIDN'T like was basically everything from when they arrived at the eternal flame onwards. The first time I watched the movie, I was too stunned about watching my favorite characters DISAPPEAR INTO DUST to even remotely enjoy the ending scene.

On rewatch, there are admittedly a few parts of it I can appreciate:

Aziraphale (or Asa) being the one to take the leap and pursue Crowley rather than the other way around

Crowley being an astrophysicist. He's always been a nerd at heart, and he will always love space

At the end of the day, I'm a sucker for a sweet gay meet-cute. I liked watching them flirt

The acting is amazing as always, so it's very believable

It ends in the South Downs cottage, with a garden with an apple tree

There are nightingales

The wedding rings

I love human AUs (I've even written one). If this show had extra time for a filler episode, this would have been a fun little “what if?”. If they wanted to get a little more sci-fi with it, they could even make it so that main Aziraphale and Crowley get a glimpse into this parallel universe and meet their human selves. That would have been fun.

What they shouldn’t be is a replacement for the real main characters of the show. When I remember these guys are in their place, I get frustrated and sad. While these two may have similarities to Aziraphale and Crowley, it doesn't change the fact that they're NOT them. They don't have the same memories, and they don't have the shared thousands of years that shaped them into who they are. That version died forever, and never got a happy ending.

We could have had a lot of these same moments without Aziraphale and Crowley sacrificing themselves. They could still be married, happy, and living together in a cottage, sharing a peaceful retirement.

That, ultimately, is what frustrates me the most: the fact that the ending is so unnecessary.

There are SO MANY scenes from the series that blatantly contradict the idea that Aziraphale and Crowley sacrificing themselves (and the current Earth) is somehow the only way for humanity to be truly free:

Laudanum Crowley’s whole anti-suicide speech

The arc scene where Crowley despises the idea of starting humanity over

The story of Job. Killing off three children and replacing them with three new ones is not, in any way, a fair substitution. Aziraphale's moral stance on this was so strong that it was one of the first times he actively defied his orders

It also just seems incredibly out of character for either of them to be fine with sacrificing each other. I truly don’t believe that the characters would ever willingly make a decision that led to the other one’s demise. They care about each other far too much to allow that to happen.

I also feel that this sends the message (whether advertently or inadvertently) that queer/neurodivergent/different people are inherently less deserving or less capable of happy endings

Aziraphale and Crowley's non-human nature can be read as a metaphor for neurodivergence (I wrote a meta about that here if you want to read it), so the idea that this part of them needs to be erased in order for the good of the people around them stings

I'm sad they never got another kiss. While I know that kissing isn't the only way to show that characters are in love, the inclusion of a tragic, angry, on-screen kiss in season two does set up the expectation for another, happy one. Especially because Aziraphale enjoyed bits of that first kiss even despite the tragedy of the moment. In Rob Wilkins’ words, Aziraphale was literally thinking to himself, “do it again”. So to never include another, happy one, is certainly… a choice. There are some weird, slightly homophobic undertones to the fact that the only gay kiss that was shown in the series was a tragic one.

Going off of the last point, there wasn't even a tender hug. I feel like at the very least the characters could have used that.

I’ve also seen a few people argue that this is a happier ending, since their human selves likely didn’t have to experience the same trauma and isolation that Aziraphale and Crowley did as angels and demons. This, to me, feels off. Having past trauma does not somehow make someone less deserving or capable of happiness and joy later in life. In my opinion, the story is much more powerful when Aziraphale and Crowley have been traumatized and hurt, and yet still manage to find joy anyway. Crowley doesn't need to be a human to have a happy, ending just like he doesn't need to be an angel again to have a happy ending.

I'm so, so sick of queer stories having unexpectedly sad endings. We deserve better than that. Happiness should not be exclusively delegated to straight people.

Above all: this story didn't NEED to end in tragedy.

This is a comedy show starring two supernatural beings. Aziraphale and Crowley, as characters, are immortal. They were the one thing in the world that literally COULD have lasted forever, and frankly, after thousands of years fighting for a happy life together, they deserved to get that.

Representation of queer joy is so important, especially now, when we are surrounded by queer tragedy in both fiction and reality, when our rights are being targeted and our voices are being suppressed.

I'm heartbroken we never got to see Aziraphale and Crowley get their happy ending. I'm grateful for the many amazing artists and writers in this fandom who have softened the blow.

For me personally, I'm not quite sure where I'm going from here, but I can say with some degree of certainty that I'm still going to make some comics and fanart of these two, at least for a while (making this one, for example, was wonderfully cathartic). Despite everything, Aziraphale and Crowley hold a special place in my heart. I'm not sure I'll ever fully stop enjoying these characters, even as I explore other stories and other interests.

To everyone who has supported my stupid comics throughout the past few years. To the fandom. And, of course, to the world.

And, as always, fuck Neil Gaiman.

Good Omens 3 SPOILERS - I Want You (Version 1)

SPOILER REVIEW under the cut!

-

Small use of AI tools to remove the background music in the voice-over in the beginning.

I enjoyed most of the finale a lot (especially the crossword scene, the prologue, the restaurant scene in the beginning and the Bentley in space!  But I am still feeling a bit torn about the ending. On the one hand it makes sense that one possible solution was to destroy heaven and hell and they did get half of a happy ending with the South Downs (I was already a bit afraid about a human ending from the leaked photos from the shooting in Edinburgh), but I am still sad that the whole original universe and 6.000 years of shared history between them and their memories were erased. 

They can live in peace from heaven and hell, but the magic system, the slow-burn romance through human history that made the story so special to me is literally gone and it feels so devastatingly final as a world without magic, especially for a fantasy series. (I am getting OUAT flashbacks).  

I already had plans for a video to "I want you" by Mitski before GO3 aired, but now I am making two versions.  Before editing the version I had planned (still the South Downs Cottage, but keeping the status quo as with their history and memories (I have no plans for the alternative worldbuilding implications for that outcome at the moment)) I made this version 1. 

But to emotionally cope with the canon ending, I just had to edit and work through the original footage first, before I start with my alternate-alternate-universe version.  Maybe one more with the canon ending edit, but in the future I will probably focus more on a head canon interpretation where they keep their powers and memories and immortality.

AWWW, thank you very much! Your stories are a great inspiration! Until May 13th I want to focus more on the side character, to get the emotional rollercoaster that is sure to come for the ineffable husbands out of my system when we have more footage and an actual story conclusion. So the next one will probably be Muriel and Eric to Taylor Swifts’ “Invisible”. It makes me happy that you like it so much and that you are not automatically thrown off by the extensive AI-use in that case. That topic tends to become quite polarizing… With all the possibilities for prompts, “somehow XD” I always end up on either making two characters kiss or hug. Maybe because interactions with masks from different scenes with actual touches are either very hard or sometimes impossible to get maniped convincingly, depending on what source material you have of the actual show or actors…

PLOT: Crowley reminisces about Aziraphale's time in Heaven, working away from Earth to stop the Second Coming from within. When Aziraphale comes back after their miscommunication-fallout, both the demon and the angel have changed, but never moved on from each other. Crowley gets worried about Aziraphale's trauma, but they slowly relearn to communicate. Despite their physical and emotional distance, their dream of a future together, retired in the countryside, stubbornly refuses to die.

The following bits are (fully or partially) AI-generated:

RumBelle - Evermore

My feelings towards RumBelle as a ship have been as fluctuating and varied as their relationship status over the seven seasons, but in the end, I am still happy that they got their Happy End, to live the rest of Belle’s life together in a timeless realm, away from the dark power. And that they finally had the chance to be reunited in the afterlife after Rumple sacrificed himself to destroy his Dark-One-self, when he was able to die without the Dark Magic.

Rumpelstiltskin is still one of my favourite OUAT characters because he is so complexly well-written.

I did use AI tools for the two masks at the cup-throwing-scene and to remove the background music from the quotes.

Editing-wise I am not 100% happy with this video, but after a month without inspiration for new projects, this was done in three days and the spontaneity with the editing was so much fun!

Sherlocks' quotes for a Lucifer fancast is a project I have had on my to-do-list for a long time!

--- The rocky relationship between the brothers Gabriel, Lucifer and Raphael/Crowley is told in backwards chronology, starting with Lucifer and Beelzebub as the reluctant biological parents of Adam to fulfill the prophecy. Beelzebub doesn't let themselves get attached to Adam after his birth and Adam's love for his real human family draws him out of Lucifer's hold. Lucifer stays around, but keeps his distance from Adam after Armageddon failed.

When Beelzebub sees their daughter with Gabriel play in the park years later, they cannot help but reminisce about their first child, Adam in comparison.

Years later, in a new corporation, Beelzebub and Adam have started to build a tentative acquaintanceship, but he is still very resentful of Lucifer.

Gabriel has had trouble with both his former lover Beelzebub and his brother Lucifer, when both join the Rebellion against God. Their betrayal hits hard, but Gabriel stays loyal to the Great plan for thousands of years until he discovers the joys of Earth together with Beelzebub. The centuries spent fighting each other in preparation for the Great Battle were not worth it, after all.

Crowley has cut ties with Heaven and his past Angel-self after his Fall. Lucifer is only his boss now, full of hate and resentment against the humans. But when everyone must work together in the end, Lucifer reveals his family relation to Crowley, much to Aziraphale's surprise.

In the Beginning, the angel siblings were happy together, creating stars and the universe. But when God revealed the new plans for Earth and the humans, Lucifer grew jealous and began his Rebellion, leaving him the first to Fall.

Parts of the backgrounds and the masks themselves are AI-generated. For the extra Gabriel-scenes I used clips from "Mad Men" and surface-tracked Gabriel's hair and robe on the scenes (some parts of the robe where I had no sufficient screenshots, were AI-extended as well.

And I used AI to remove the background music from the quotes.
