My Song Bird, Sing Only For Me

Once I thought in my eternal anxious state that calling my customers “you guys” was too unprofessional so when an older couple came in I was like ah yes old people say this all the time so I said “what can I get you folks?” but it ended up sounding like I said “what can I get you fucks?”

I decided to be a little less professional after that.

Is this it op?

Couldn't find the art on their Tumblr, but their url is aiwa-sensei here if you wanna see more of their lovely art!

i tried to find a specific piece of fanart i saw a bit ago as a writing reference but even after combing through several tags and files i did not manage to locate it. i'm losing my mind help

so!

it's a sketch-like/line art drawing with a yellowed background, aziraphale is on his knees on the left side, crowley is sitting down on the right. aziraphale is taking care of his burned feet i think, but it might also be just washing them without the burns, i can't remember exactly.

if anyone knows which fanart i mean please let me know in whatever way. oh, and if you find something similar that's also good!

:D

Happy Pride Month, Programs!!!

Heeeeey so uh not to bug you or anything but when you gonna rate CLU's exes? Your ratings are good af 👌

Uh oh you've boosted my ego, now I'm going to draft it out

give me 5-10 business days cause I'm terrible at posting(also thank you, I love this fandom so much)

Oh hi there good omens fandom, did I mention I made a Bildad costume?

It's not entirely done but it was done enough to wear to a convention! There's still some things I'd like to tweak cause I'm a perfectionist and OBSESSED with his costume. Like I could write an essay on the construction alone but I digress.

It was such a blast seeing the delight on all the good omens fans faces when they spotted me, the collective love for Bildad is truly a highlight of the fandom!

Also ft. @black-mambaaaa and @mercyful-benz as turtleneck Crowley and Heaven Crowley looking like we're about to drop the hottest album of the apocalypse.

Aaaaand Heaven Crowley and I waiting on turtleneck Crowley to finish all the pics with our Aziraphale (we only had one and had to share).

The sweet @quinnznos takes our pics as always.

Ok love u bye!

"Then God forgive you"

This is my favorite moment from Aziraphale.

Notably one of the few times he invokes the Almighty's name. One of the only, if not the only time he doesn't say "I" when forgiving.

Aziraphale, who's terrified of his bosses but cares so much about humans that he's willing to take a chance and believe that he should be protecting these innocent kids no matter what the paperwork says.

He says this to his only friend(sort of), who he just learned(supposedly) is super cool with child murder, who could destroy him too for all he knows with no consequences given the circumstances and again, the paperwork giving him the freedom to do so.

Forgiveness, his favorite thing, something he's really good at.

He's about to walk away from the only person who has really been nice to him at all, if ever. The only person who might be a bit like him.

He's 100% saying that he's not gonna overlook this.

"Then God forgive you because I won't."

He's so brave.

Yes! I also want to point out that the little trance Gabriel goes into in episode 4 when he's remembering things is paraphrasing the book of Revelation! "The dead will leave their graves and walk the earth once more and there will be great Lamentations." There is a part in the Bible where the sounds of trumpets and instruments and other things mark the second coming of Christ, and the dead rising from their graves is ALSO one of the signs (I can't remember if it's before or after, it's been a WHILE since I've read it). And coupled with the zombie Nazis, the living dead? It was all foreshadowed and I just love that for once all that miserable reading and sermons throughout my childhood and teen years gave me at least some knowledge for this wonderful show specifically. However, the thing that really sticks out to me is the word "lamentations" which gives off a more...dark interpretation. I was under the impression when I first read the book that it was meant to be a happy thing. First the dead would rise to join Jesus, and then the living. So I wonder if Neil's interpretation will be something more out of a horror movie. I can't wait :) Sorry to hijack your post op, I had some thoughts and you sparked them!

I don't know if anyone else has pointed this out yet, but in Season 2 episode 3 (aka the grave digging episode) Aziraphale drives their Crowley's car. In the car he's listening to classical music and the piece he gets to play is 'Danse Macabre' by Camille Saint-Saëns. And if you don't know the 'Danse Macacre' it's a classical piece from 1874 and the French title translates to 'dance of death.' The piece itself is in a minor key and has a lot of strings that gives it an almost playful yet dreary tone. It's often interpreted to represent the resurrection of the dead, no matter the walk of life, and then dancing around graves. The overall message is basically that death is inevitable and no one can escape from it, that it doesn't matter who you are, all things come to an end.

So anyways, I recall Neil Gaiman or someone (sorry if it wasn't you Neil, I can't remember if I saw it here on Tumblr or in one of the several Good Omens interviews) that everything that happens in the show is deliberate. We all know it's deliberate that Crowley listens to Queen/the Bentley turns all music into Queen (sorry im not doing this explanation justice) and we also know that Aziraphale seems to like classical music. But I think there's a darker meaning almost to him listening to the 'Danse Macabre' and that maybe there's just subtle hints all through the season that the end is inevitable no matter how desperately this angel and demon try to prevent it. Or maybe it's even that this whole time it was telling us anyways that Aziraphale was bound to become Supreme Archangel. Or maybe it's just because this episode is about grave robbing, digging up the bodies that died and using them for a new purpose (also considering the grave robbing episode takes place in the early 1800s, before this piece was composed but still) and the piece is actually just to set the tone of the episode. Or maybe it's different all together.

Either way, I think it's important to note the piece he's listening to and the story the piece tells and it's relevance to the story as a whole.

HOLD ON are you telling me the Grid's official name is the Tron System WHAT

You name the the main city after him, you name the system itself after him, you name the whole damn IP after him, and the character himself is barely in it?!

(kinda surprised Flynn didn't name his fuckin kid Tron at this point)

Y'know this has actually been bugging me for a while now. Because in the Bible, the antichrist, the four horsemen, the Second Coming, it's all part of the same apocalypse. Maybe they didn't really stop Armageddon so much as delay it or slow it down a bit.

Watching Good Omens while working on Lilith's dress (nap time! Yay!) and something jumped out at me;

Aziraphale: Is there some other way of locating him?

Crowley: How the Heaven should I know? Armageddon only happens once, you know.

Except, that's not true. Now we're dealing with the Second Coming.

Strings tangled up in strings and I'm not sure exactly what they mean, but it is interesting.

After 2 years I can finally draw his face
