Anyway I think one of the funniest things to come out of the go3 discourse these last few days is that literary genres are irrelevant and don’t matter, actually

My bad! I didn’t realize that the tried and true practice of sorting media into their corresponding genres was fake news, but thanks for the update!

I’m tired

We need to talk more about the fact that Crowley does stress cleaning… 

And also the fact that he READS. He lied to Aziraphale that he doesn’t…

Crowley Of The Day: they’re happy and telling stories of all their crazy adventures together. This was the real ending trust me.

Been reading so many good fanfics lately that describe smells so well that I couldn't help but crack out my side hobby and make an attempt at creating some perfumes based off of those Ineffable Idiots :,) I wish there was an easier way to share them with ya'll, but since they haven't invented a way to illegally download smells yet, I'll add the profiles under the cut :3c let me know what you think!!

Crowley - Ends up being a somewhat sharp, spiced kind of smell. It's powerful and commanding, all rough edges and long limbs, but has a subtle rounding in its touch of freshenss.

1ml Granny Smith green apple

0.5ml Charcoal

0.5ml Woodsmoke

1ml Leather

1ml Clove

1ml Musk

1ml Black Fig and Honey

0.25ml Fresh Ground (this is a coffee kinda smell)

Aziraphale - Gentle and subtle with a smidge of warmth to it. Invokes the feeling of sitting in a plush and cozy armchair in a warm sunbeam, with a delightfully old book in hand.

1ml McIntosh Apple

1ml Bergamot

2ml Old Books

0.5ml Honeysuckle

1ml Fresh Mint

2 drops of Frankincense essential oil

3 drops Atlas Cedar essential oil

1ml Musk

0.25ml Patchouli

1ml Fresh Cut Hay

Ineffable - It starts as it begins, In a Garden. A nostalgic sort of scent, though you aren't sure from where or what time. Like a walk in the park when the days are still warm, but the colors of the trees are just starting to turn.

2ml Aziraphale blend

2ml Crowley blend

1ml Green Grass

0.5ml Dirt

0.5ml Crisp Morning Air

there are a lot of Extremely Married moments in good omens, but I maintain that the Most Married moment is when crowley says out of nowhere, “ducks! they’re what water slides off.” and aziraphale heaves a deeply put-upon sigh and says, “….just drive the car.”

[alexunbalanced]

a close runner up is when Aziraphale wants to do magic at Warlock’s birthday party and Crowley just goes, “Make you disappear”, and Aziraphale’s not put out in the slightest

[silver-shores]

and third place goes to “Oh Lord, heal this bike”

[amadness2method]

“Not you, I know what you smell like.”

[ednav]

I’m sorry, but the Most Married Moment is the compromise:

A: “You lost the child.” C: “We lost the child.” A: “A child has been lost.”

I haven’t painted anything in months and I feel like I’m quite out of practice, so have a very loose repaint of La Gimblette by Jean-Honoré Fragonard I made today to get me back into painting.

As Halloween approaches, Aziraphale uncovers a threat to the members of his club. Invoking The Arrangement, he reaches out to Crowley for the first time since their holy water fight over 27 years ago. Crowley comes to the rescue in grand style with a masquerade ball that breaks the silence between them and tempts Aziraphale into his arms.
