Crowley calling Aziraphale angel collection

Neil Gaiman: Crowley has not yet learned that just because you think of yourself as unforgivable it doesn’t mean that you cannot be forgiven. Or, indeed, that you need forgiveness. (x)

You know when Crowley apologizes to Aziraphale in season 1 for what he said, do you think Aziraphale should have apologized too? He also had said things. Saying Crowley is a demon and that’s all he is basically. Saying they’re not friends. I agree Crowley should say sorry and he did. But I felt Aziraphale should have as well. Just been watching the show again and that always was on my mind when I saw that scene. Maybe I’m wrong. They both said hurtful things.

Hiya! :) It always seemed to me that Crowley apologizing in the come-with-me-to-Alpha-Centauri is more of a way to get Aziraphale to listen to him so he can persuade the angel to run away with him. I mean, that's what Crowley does, isn't it? Aziraphale says no to The Arrangement? Keep finding your way in there so in the end he agrees. Fight about the Holy Water? Oh look, I can save the angel form Nazis, there's an opportunity to speak with him again. Perhaps Crowley says it that way because he isn't really sure what went wrong, if he didn't actually said something for the angel decide that way and if it is, he apologizes, but for me it feel also more like a way in to reconnect with the angel whose mindset is still a bit of set that he is the good one and Crowley the bad one. Objectively, sure, Aziraphale is the one who should apologize at least as well, and we don't know what happened when they sit on the bench or on the bus way home. Perhaps they did talk about it. And perhaps they just held hands and let it be the past, who knows :).

(For me also Aziraphale's 'I forgive you' at the end of that scene is not about the current Crowley's apology but it's connected to Crowley's "I won't be forgiven. Not ever. That's part of a demon's job description. Unforgiveable. That's what I am." by which he says that for him Crowley is not truly the unforgivable Fallen. And who knows, perhaps in it a bit of his apology as well :)).
