25+ mutuals only, low activity, and highly private RP blog for aziraphale of prime's good omens. primarily show-based. multiverse, crossover, and OC friendly. rules below the read more.

secondary muses: gabriel, muriel, nina, lucifer

open starters.

BLOG ROLL: griefacquainted / aziraphalesballs (GO gif blog)

AFFILIATES: @xflashbastardx / @blindsite / @holyhitter

block #go3 spoilers to remain spoiler-free, though go3 is largely disregarded here.

⁰¹ i prefer to remain mutuals with folks i actively write with. i don't mind if we go an extended time between replies, but i'd like some active thread(s) to be in place. if we're mutuals, you're welcome to spam my inbox, write impromptu starters, or engage however you'd like. i often toss stuff your way when inspired, but there's never any pressure to continue anything you're not feeling. no mains or exclusives. affiliates are just the homies.

⁰² aziraphale means a lot to me personally, so if you're here to (a) reduce him to a chipper fellow who likes tea and books or (b) take out your go2 frustration on him, i will not tolerate it. first interactions with crowley will take place pre-go2.6. after we've written together some, i prefer we plot (even lightly) anything following the final 15.

⁰³ this goes for all muses, but esp crowley (since it's the most often use case here): please correct me if i make any mistakes in your portrayal, such as pronouns, spelling (crawly/crawley), headcanons, abilities, etc. i try my absolute best to keep up with everyone's interpretations, but i know sometimes thread-dependent cases arise, or i simply make a mistake. please know you're always welcome to correct me, and i will rectify asap!

⁰⁴ he is mostly here to make friends; i ship him with crowley (no one in the audience is shocked), but i do not autoship. i'd prefer we test the waters to ensure our portrayals and vision for their dynamic mesh well. i'm willing to write spicy stuff if we've been writing together for a while or have a specific premise in mind, but it's not high on my priority list.

⁰⁵ DNI: d.octor who muses. no hate. all love. totally fine if you have DW muses on your roster. i just can't engage with those muses for personal reasons—but we can write with your others.

i really miss being here but omg am i getting run over by a truck rn. will properly be back when i can 😭

It's clear Aziraphale loves humanity as a whole, but how does he feel about people on an individual basis? Does he enjoy getting to know humans and making friends with them? Do you have any headcanons about famous or historical figures he may have known?

oh i love this q! he does enjoy getting to know people, although i wouldn't call it personal in the way we have personal relationships. that's more for other celestial beings. he's always going to be there long after a person has left earth, so it's not quite the same interpersonally. death doesn't weigh on him the way it does for us because it doesn't have the same finality. it would be the circumstances or the destination that would be harder for him to grapple with.

it actually makes me think of teaching and how you get to know students each year, and you get really deep in the trenches with them, but then the year is over and they move on in their journey. you're attached and you care, but there's also a different framing for the relationship. he's invested in individual humans, but they're simultaneously one of many.

i always hc that he knew michelangelo, and i do not know anything about art, but he will gladly you tell anyone and everyone about the time that "someone at the vatican pointed upward and said, 'hey, someone should paint that!' and aziraphale said, 'oh! i know just the man for the job!'" crowley has surely heard this story a dozen times now. aziraphale grew very sad when he could no longer tell that story without raising any eyebrows regarding his age.

we know he has an original scroll of john of patmos' book of revelation, and i personally think john of patmos was also john the beloved disciple. the thought of john and aziraphale knowing each other makes me personally very happy. it would be cute. i also very much enjoy the thought of him knowing lahiri mahasaya since lahiri worked with many englishmen (thx colonialism) for the railway company. i think aziraphale would have been utterly fascinated and enamored with the man.

spiritual figures aside, i'm sure he knew john dee. between the library and the whole conversing with angels thing, it's too on the nose to dismiss! i like to think az had an encounter with oscar wilde, too, but he didn't know to whom he spoke at the time of their conversation. i have no idea how that would have gone down. but i can see azirapahle realizing only after the fact who he was speaking to and then recontextualizing the entire experience.

unfortunately, i don't know enough about history or art to offer much more than that. but i also love the idea of him not knowing a ton of prominent names because it's just so easy to stay in your own bubble. makes it more real in a way. and i think he kind of likes being at a distance from big figures because they get to stay kind of awe-inspiring and mythic that way.

Well. It had been worth a shot.

Heavy lids close over amber eyes, Crowley leans his head back against the sofa and heaves a single deep breath.

Like it or not, he and Lucifer have always been...similar. Far more so in the days before the War than now, but if Crowley is to be honest—and right now, he has no choice—they have not diverged entirely in the millennia since being cast out. For one thing, they both hate it down here. Crowley, at least, has always had the "freedom" (as much as any demon can be free) to move between the planes, to leave the dark, dank confines of Hell and move amongst humans, make his own choices live his life as he wishes, to at least some extent. That has been the one thing that's kept him from losing himself entirely—and the thing he would most despair to be robbed of.

It is not out of any attempt to mask deceit that Crowley's eyes remain closed when next he speaks, but rather an unwillingness to look Lucifer in the eye as he voices the torment that would break his spirit entirely.

"A tool that can't serve its master can't be trusted to move on its own." Defeat weighs heavy on every syllable, the serpent already hating speaking of himself as a tool, a thing for Hell to weild and use.

"If I fail you, then you have no reason to let me leave Hell again. No reason to let me make any of my own decisions. I should be kept down here, forever—" his face contorts at the next thought "—always aware but never in control of my actions. Just...just a puppet for Hell."

[fellandfeathers]

THE SERPENT WRIGGLES his way into passing another of the Devil's tests, and a touch of life returns to Lucifer's eyes, perhaps the first in centuries. ❝ I see we're in agreement. ❞

The corner of his lip tugs in a grin—though he remains cautious of a smile. It's going to be some time before Crowley is even well enough to surface the Earth again, which only leaves them with said time together—the most since... Before.

It was never lost upon him how quickly Crowley took the opportunity to SLITHER HIS WAY OUT OF HELL. And Lucifer knows, if he had the option, he would have, too.

"Even going all the way back, we always understood each other," Crowley had said. How much of that remained?

❝ I don't... want to keep you here. You know that, right? ❞ A single eyebrow arches. ❝ I know Hell doesn't make you... ❞

Lucifer's gaze flickers downward as he mulls over the appropriate word.

❝ Well, I'm certain no one enjoys being down here as much as Hastur, and even he has his moments with this place. ❞

Leaning forward, his eyes lock with gold, earnestness threading through his words as much as sincerity makes him want to skin someone alive, possibly himself.

❝ WE'RE ON THE SAME SIDE—we want the same thing, Crowley. For you to return. I want you to be successful in your work. But I still have to be thorough. I can't afford to let... ❞

One blink. Another. A doe in headlights blinks back at the serpent before scampering off from Satan's gaze.

❝ I can't let our past condemn our future. ❞ He forces the words out before they choke him. Damn the closeness they once shared. The closeness that damned them both. ❝ But when you're strong enough to return, if I feel certain we are in proper harmony, I WILL RETURN YOU TO YOUR POST. You have my word. ❞

He raises his eyebrows, awaiting the acceptance of a deal with the Devil.

{ your biggest strength as a roleplayer? Where do I even start? The thing that comes to mind first for me is your grasp on characterization. Every character you write is so well rounded and has so much depth. You have such a solid grasp on their voices, and they're all so distinct. I may be biased, but I am especially fond of your Aziraphale, since you do so well at capturing every aspect of him, the way he's layered and nuanced and complex. You pour so much love into your writing, it really shows. I also have to mention your prose in general. You write beautifully. You are genuinely such an inspiration to me, you make me want to push myself to be a better writer. Thank you for blessing my dash with all of your muses! }

what's my biggest strength as a roleplayer

CHERRI. i love this so much. omg. i'm saving it to read forever. thank you so much for such thoughtful feedback. i love writing with you, and i'm so excited for everything that we do and will get to do with all our threads. you're a wonderful writer. it's always such a treat to see your creative takes, phenomenal dialogue, and the thought you put into our beloved snake demon. you're such a blessing to my dash—ic and ooc! so grateful to get to write with you! angel and i (and all the other muses) are so lucky to have you. <3

"Good. And it's going to stay that way. Right, Angel?"

"My plants don't pray."

[fellandfeathers]

❝ No, they certainly do not. I have NEVER ONCE seen such a thing! ❞

[fellandfeathers]

Are you going to pray with Crowley's plants? Or maybe pray FOR them, they probably need it.

❝ Now that you mention it... PERHAPS BOTH. ❞

[fellandfeathers]

i really love how your dialogue is written and flows! also your use of specific facial expressions in icons is actually flawless (and usually so funny). and finally, the way you have aziraphale behave while texting is genuinely so delightful and gutbustingly funny. your angel is saurrr cutie while also being a force to reckon with.

what's my biggest strength as a roleplayer

ahhh, blue!! this is so sweet. thank you. so grateful for you and to get to poke your demon with all my nonsense. after your reply and the tags, this is crowley (but we won't tell him because that will make him mad).

it's also me @ u !! ( in the platonic internet friend way! )

[jewish-joy]

Last year, I befriended a Catholic seminarian. We've gotten to be pretty decent friends. Seeing as he was staying in town for the summer and I wasn't, I entrusted him with caring for my plant.

He did a wonderful job, but as he was returning my plant to my custody, he explained "I watered her every other day, I gave her new dirt, moved her into the sunshine, prayed the rosary-"

"What?"

He looked at me, confused. "Isn't she a plant you pray with?"

"No," I said slowly. "She's a prayer plant. That's the... colloquial name of the plant."

Upon seeing his stricken face, I realized something went wrong. Turns out, this entire time, he's been including my plant in on his prayers and leaving her near icons.

Listen, totally cool. My plant becoming Catholic is a great deal for her not dying over the summer. But now I must navigate this interfaith household. Keep me in your thoughts.
