Crowley walking all sexy and slutty like up to that bloke at the pub table and saying âhello~â while eluding âhi yeah Iâm the husbandâ energy reminded me of something and I couldnât figure out what it was until I rewatched an episode of Lucifer and. IT'S LITERALLY HIM YâALL HE SAYS IT THE EXACT SAME WAY Iâm losing it over here
and then I was thinking about it and theyâre actually so similar that it hurts, and I sort of fell down a rabbit hole of Lucifer scenes that are just so Crowley.
They just want someone to accept and love them but theyâve accepted that that will never happen so they try to play the role of the strong, powerful one who canât be hurt,
and only show their vulnerabilities to the person that they love the most, all while believing that love can never be reciprocated.
(theyâre also both the âI make jokes about my traumaâ type which is always appreciated- btw Amenadiel reminds me a lot of Aziraphale, though obviously not in any romantic way with Lucifer, but especially with his inner conflict with Heaven in s2/3)
so basically theyâre so similar and would in fact be besties if the shows existed in the same universe because imagine-
Lucifer, drunk, post-s3 breakup: Chloe tried to poison me after abandoning me for like months and months bc who I really was wasnât someone she could love
Crowley, drunker, post-divorce and taking notes: oh so thatâs whatâll happen when he comes back good to know good to know
Plus the whole âGod on earthâ plot line feels like something that COULD happen in s3 maybe?? And Luciferâs time with God was one of my favorite arcs because he was so (justifiably) angry but when it came down to it and God apologized, all Lucifer ever wanted was that love, and his barriers just came crashing down and he allowed his fathers love to be given to him
They're in vastly different circumstances and situations, sure, and their love stories with their respective slow burns are definitely very different, though with some similarities (most notably Chloe leaving at the end of s3 once realizing who he really is, which can be compared to Aziraphale unintentionally implying that he was leaving Crowley because Crowley could never be enough for him as a demon), but the really are so similar.
"why do I hate myself so much?" seems very much like a line that Crowley could spit out with so much venom in s3 when drunk off his ass and I am here for it.
