Their new Espresso-Tea-Maker. Wait, what? That's not what it said on the tin!
No one was more surprised than the new state-of-the-art coffee machine itself when it simply prepared the perfect cup of tea for its new owner called “Angel”. Obviously it wasn’t built to make six shots of espresso all at once for the "Dearest" one either, and yet... Needless to say that neither option was actually in the manual.
Please excuse this silly little random Good Omens LEGO one shot, brought to you by 'ineffably-queer-book-lover was recently asked to create a LEGO MOC of an espresso machine as a wedding gift'.
Apparently the happy couple (enthusiastic LEGO fans) in question was getting a certain kind of espresso machine (not a coffee machine, as I learned) as a wedding gift and their friends thought it would be fun to include a little LEGO miniature. So, yeah, I built them a MOC as close to the real deal as I could manage.
That got me thinking of Aziraphale and Crowley (a surprise to exactly no one) and what shenanigans they would get up to if someone gifted them a coffee or espresso maker. Obviously I couldn't resist to build a nice new sleek state-of-the-art machine for our ineffable duo and get them some appropriate cups!
Bonus 1: Cut scene (sort of) that actually shows Aziraphale's custom-made tea in his cup:
Bonus 2: The MOC as shown here if you want to build it yourself (most parts are original LEGO or at least available from LEGO in similar colors; the connector rings obviously aren't, but it would work without them if you attach the handles the other way round or just use simple 1x1 round plates for a coffee machine instead of an espresso maker). If you only want to use the smaller cups (for espresso, you know?), just leave out the 1x2 plate in the back:
You're welcome to build it yourself! 🤗
I tried to use very common parts, so it can be recreated in various colors, too (the one for the wedding was bright red)! 🤗

Tagging the usual crowd with the customary addendum to please let me know if you want to be added to or removed from the list! 😘
Quelin Sepulveda who plays angel Muriel in season 2 :): And that’s a wrap for Murial, Douglas Mackinnon and Neil Gaiman I can’t thank you enough for trusting me with such wonderful character, and giving me this chance to play and grow. And thank you to the whole Good Omens family for welcoming me and looking after me. Absolutely star cast and crew ❤. (x)
Stepping into the dimly lit area of the bookshop, a shiver traced my spine. I clutched the steaming cocoa, seeking warmth on the winged cup. My eyes fixated on the spell circle etched on the floor. Its lines glowed faintly, whispering angelic incantations. I hesitated, drawn by curiosity.
As I crossed the threshold, warmth enveloped me, emanating from the circle beneath my feet. The cocoa's aroma mingled with an otherworldly energy. The circle pulsed, illuminating the room in a soft, ethereal light. A rush of excitement meld with fear.
In that moment, time blurred. Visions danced before me. I sipped the cocoa, its comforting embrace uniting with the circle's enchantment. Suddenly, multiple lilac eyes emerged in the liquid, shimmering and observing.
Reality snapped back, the light of the circle fades. My Heart pounds, I returned, the taste of ethereal magic lingering in the bookshop. The eyes in the cocoa left an indelible impression, a cryptic message from the heavenly realms. They beckoned, hinting at secrets waiting to be unveiled.
