I was thinking, if Michael threw the Book of Life in the Eternal Flame, and everything that Crowley is able to save is the bookshop page, how are Crowley and Aziraphale still alive?
I mean, every angle whose page was tear off the book disappeared. So, why are them still out there? They are not even suffering. Before they dissapear almost every angle showed some difficulties (pain or otherwise). But not them, it is implied that their pages were not only ripped (wich is enaugh to make Uriel dissapear), but also burned. Si why are they perfectly fine?
I don't get it, it is show that takes great care of all the details, but something this big is "wrong". Is there something I'm not seeing or something?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN they must decide. Is that really a decision. It doesnt say: Together they must overcome these challenges. No. Their biggest dilemma is gonna be whether they want to. If thats true im gonna cry while watching this
The Good Omens Prime account posted a new poster today, and Peter Anderson Studio decided to give us a ring.
Of course we had to answer the call... Would be rude not to.
Translation and explanation for the poster is below the cut.
So first off for those that are curious, this is nowhere near the Angelic trial script found in season 2. On closer inspection, the symbols seemed to be some sort of repeating flourish font. So we had to find the font.
I spent 3 whole US dollars on this terrible decorative filigree.
Now all that's left is to type out every single letter by hand one by one, and presto change-o
So what mysteeeeeerious secrets have we revealed?
"dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit..."
If that quote looks familiar to you, you're probably a graphic designer. This text is a mixture of standard placeholder Latin, corrupted fragments, and keyboard-mashing, a literal translation is impossible. However, we can translate the source phrases from which these rings were built.
In professional typesetting, Lorem Ipsum text is meant to simulate the "look" of a document without the "distraction" of meaning. If we translate the intended meaning of the recognizable Latin roots, the inscription reads like a fragmented philosophical treatise on pain and duty.
Most of these rings are derived from the same sentence:
"Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit…"
"There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain…"
Ring 1 (outside)

Ring 2
orem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit sed do eiusmod ugimt sit vo(vd)luptatem nda dbc iueq sunt in culpa qui dolor incia
These rings focus on dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod.
"…pursuing excellence, but also through the work and pain of the moment. [Corrupted gibberish: dugimt, dbc] …they are in fault who [fail in their] duty through a weakness of mind."
Ring 3
ipsum mnnv dnmvn dfgnkda iem io sum dolor sit amet consecti dolor ea mc vemo cillu volu m dolor eenia i voluus m “Heart broken World Broken What’s the point of anything?” di
This ring contains the most corruption
Recognizable Roots: veniam, illum, voluptas.
"…[Gibberish]… pain itself… [Gibberish]… that piece of pleasure… [Gibberish]… Heart broken World Broken What’s the point of anything?"
Ring 4
Amet consectetur adipiscing elit sed do eius ____lee dolor in reprmin i fmm ve n iekjd eo ore voluptate sum dolor sit
Ring 5
adipiscing elit sed do eiusmod tempor cu quip ex ea comms ltmn jrew t r t e f nb ai nima veniam esi ea commor
These rings use fragments of the section discussing "the effort required to achieve results."
reprehenderit, voluptate, eiusmod tempor, ex ea commodo.
"…to find fault in [reprehenderit] pleasure… [Gibberish]… through the effort of work… [Gibberish]… unless they result in some convenience or advantage."
Ring 6
corporis suscipit laeorios am ev a dkd wr scing elit sed mque laudante totam rem aper iam ullam
This ring pulls from the "laborious" section of the text.
corporis suscipit laboriosam, laudantium, rem aperiam, ullam.
"…undertakes laborious physical exercise… [Gibberish]… praising… I will open the whole matter… [Gibberish]… no one."
Ring 7 (left side) Ring 7 (right side)

These outer/inner fragments are repetitions of the same opening phrases.
"Pain itself… consectetur… eiusmod… their own pain."
Conclusion:
Peter Anderson studios are giant trolls and deserve
to be put in a corner to think about what they’ve done.
On behalf of everyone in the @ineffable-detective-agency who worked on this rush job:
You can also check out our instagram where we posted it first. You can ping Peter Anderson while you're at it and tell them to try harder next time.
Translation and explanation for the poster and a little surprise are below the cut.
Sorry to disappoint, but the text is still fundamentally a smattering of Cicero’s 45 BC treatise on ethics (just like Crowley's), also known as Lorem Ipsum or placeholder text. But here is the basic meaning of the text anyway, for all you latin freaks out there.
Most of these rings are derived from the same sentence:
"Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit..."
"There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain..."
Ring 1 (outside)
elit sed do adipiscin do eius modg elit exe adipiscing elit adipiscing elit rcimation ind of orem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing
"...pursuing excellence... [corrupted: exercitationem / physical training]... let it be known that the pain itself is the focus, and it is sought after because it is pain..."
Ring 2
orem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit sed do eiusmod ugimt sit vo(vd)luptatem nda dbc iueq sunt in culpa qui dolor incia
"...at such a time as this, [jumbled: ugimt] there is pleasure... they are at fault who [fail] in their duty through a weakness of the soul, which is the same as the beginning of pain."
Ring 3
ipsum mnnv dnmvn dfgnkda iem io sum dolor sit amet consecti doloter cpsur mc vemo cillu volu m dolor eenia i voluus am evolui usm odi ips
...the pain [corrupted: dolore]... [jumbled: mc vemo]... that very piece of pleasure... [corrupted: evolui]... I have unrolled [the explanation] of this very thing..."

"...[to find fault/reprehend]... from that pleasure comes the pain... [jumbled: cumms]... for even down to the smallest details, I shall come [to explain]..."
Ring 6

Conclusion:
And as for the surprise; All's well that ends well. At least we got an apology (dance).
not being able to like a piece of media because you don’t like the actor is crazy to me. i don’t like four of the main cast members of ouat and i’m still here :)
Or the writter. I mean, I'm here for the story, to know what happens with the characters. Not to say that everything that the author said is perfect/well/my opinion.
The fact that I enjoy a story (either book, movie or series) has nothing to do with the author and all with the characters/storytelling. That's what I find appeling.
Of course you can disagree with an author personal opinions and STILL enjoy their work.
Craving for a fic in wich future Doctor (any post Darilium really) and River meet, but he have erase her memory to keep the time line. Same way River did with his previous selves.
I mean the joy for a moment (I can be with you for a little longer), the angst ('cause you're not going to remember), the sorrow (I am going to erease your memory)...
Maybe even River remembering all of these encounters all of sudden when she's about to die.
Please anybody who knows/writes any fic like this or similar let me know.
I would love to know what your favourite fics are. I really want to read them. I want specially some watch the show fic, but any (except AU in wich they are not witches) is welcomed. Fics where all the coven appear are preferable.
What if we make the Doctor keep meeting River? Her timeline is not important, just like his wasn't when she met previous regenerations. We KNOW River had met previous Doctors and made them forgett, so, why can't the doctor do the same?
I mean, is it fair? No, of course not, but it wasn't either when River was meeting the Doctor before he knew her. Will it be done on TV? Probably not, but we could always dream....
Maybe it could even be a data gosht River, so there is not necessary to erase her memory. Remember 11th speech? You are always here to me, and i can always see you... (sorry if the quote isn't correct I haven't seen the show in english). So, what if we bring that back? I know he told her to life her death(?), instead of following him. But, what if he reached her, what if he called her? Maybe later with the sonic sunglasses? Remember him saying people not to look in the browser history? Because of spoilers maybe?
I don't know, whatever, I just want to see how would River Song react to the new doctors (especially 13th and 15th).
Pss.: if anyone writes/knows a fic like this, send it to me. Please, I'm begging you.

The Rani was already living underneath Cherry Sunday's flat for who knows how long (Ruby only moved there recently during her A Levels after growing up in Manchester, but she seems very familiar with her so maybe grew up seeing her on visits down to London), before the Doctor ever even showed up.
And she only had a reaction to the TARDIS after seeing it dematerialise.
Dropping her shopping bags in shock does not seem like the reaction of a character for whom this is part of their plan... was she retired, 'hiding herself away'? Did seeing the Doctor's TARDIS kick her current plan into motion? Her disposition changes completely the next time we see her; she sits out in her chair and observes the events as they proceed, and wishes Ruby luck before she steps onboard.
I know the doctor doesn't know what blink is other than safely assuming it's a weeping angels episode, but there's something truly hysterical in talking to the main character of your favorite show and telling him your favorite episode is one he's barely in 😭
I was annoyed with him in FW and felt bad for Violet, but I never hated him because it was so obvious for me that Rebecca made him a juxtaposition to Xaden. I read it like ''seee Dain did this in this situation, but Xaden did this and that's why Xaden is better for Violet. And I agree Dain and Violet weren't for each other. There was never a love triangle to begin with. It was always Xaden for Violet and it was so obviously written.
In FW I felt there was something more going on with what happened . Like we didn't get the whole story. And then I read IF and all my suspicions were right and since then I loved Dain as a character so seeing Rebecca loving him too makes me happy. But I am also scared she will kill him off. I don't want him to die. I hate when characters who got their ''redemption'' die. I want him to live and to grow as a person because people can learn from their mistakes and grow and became better people.
Also I am all here for Dain and Sloane. I need a book just about them.
