A Thought

A Thought

I lied. It's not a thought. It's a not at all cohesive babble.

So what if Crowley and Aziraphale - hear me out - adopted a kid? Like, they're living at South Downs and Aziraphale just shows up at the cottage with a literal 8 year old human? And Crowley's like 'fucking... okay.'

And they take care of this human kid. And they wow the kid with miracles, and as the kid becomes a teen, the kid's like 'pa, never do that again' when Aziraphale tries to do his magic act and he's all heartbroken because his kid doesn't like his magic act and Crowley has to comfort his angel?

And the kid becomes an adult, falls in love, and moves out, but Aziraphale finally caves and buys a modern phone so he can check in with the kid every day and the kid's exasperated but loves their pa and allows it.

And the kid gets their heart broken and moves back in and lives there for a while?

And Crowley and Aziraphale love this kid with everything they have?

And even then, it's not enough, because the kid dies anyway, and Crowley and Aziraphale find comfort in each other, and barely leave the house for a century - not even to eat or get alcohol?

But then they realize that being able to love this thing that they raised was worth the grief and they adopt another?

What if that happened?

Love it when people assume that because I run and do sports I'm in pique physical condition when it's in fact the opposite. I am falling apart. My joints are actively losing mobility as we speak. I am still going out of the pure need to impress people and no I do not do any stretches I am supposed to

One thing I don't see talked about is the scene in ep. 3 season 2 when Aziraphale and Crowley are talking to the doctor, and how the doctor is describing how the malignant tumor Aziraphale was holding came from a boy who died. And clearly this entire episode is a pivotal moment in Aziraphales development, but that particular scene is so important to me. How Aziraphale hugs the jar closer, and the look of remorse and grief on his face.

One Thing I Don't See Talked About Is The Scene In Ep. 3 Season 2 When Aziraphale And Crowley Are Talking

(this!!!)

Throughout the series Aziraphales been shown to care a lot about humanity, but to me it's always been a sort of obligation thing. Like oh yeah I'm an angel it's in my job description to care about you weirdos. And it's been shown that Aziraphale clearly cares about human history and achievements and all that, or else he wouldn't have tried half as much to save the world. But up until this point it's always felt a bit impersonal. During the flood, he doesn't fret as much over the humans as Crowley does. I'm sure he was concerned and felt sorry for them, but he doesn't really know what to say about it, because its Gods will. At the time, God's will triumphed over everything, even his love for humanity. Which to me is why he seems a bit cold to the poor in Edinburgh in 1827, because to him God has given them everything they need to live a good life, they simply made the wrong choices.

And that's a philosophy I feel can come off as very dismissive or apathetic, but it's clear that Aziraphale is neither of those things. He still feels bad, and genuinely tries to make a difference by giving advice to the grave robber and trying to stop her from making more poor decisions, his way of trying to help or "save" her while still adhering to God's will. ("An angel who tries to go along with Heaven as long as he can." Or something like that) But with the doctor and Crowleys clever input, his eyes are kinda opened. Or at least he realizes some stuff. And at that moment, when he's holding the jar, I feel like he's kind of realizing that that was a real, human life. Not just a tumor, or some illegal deal, or a hunk of flesh. That tumor had been part of a very alive little boy with all of the potential to be good, just for that to taken away by a very mortal thing. And with that I think he starts to understand a little more the helplessness that comes with being human, and the bad things that are sometimes necessary to preserve what is good. (the research using stolen bodies/organs)

While yes technically God did give people all they need to be good, with the cards dealt just by life, you can't always just be good. For Aziraphale this is kinda where the fact that God doesn't care/not everything is under Her control is brought to light. All these realizations that have been developing for a while coming to a head in this one moment is why I think we see Aziraphale be so sympathetic and caring over the jar, ex: pulling it closer to his chest and zoning out of the conversation for a sec. Also the natural care of being an angel.

i see driftrod as a QPR. like rodimus is drift's amica, but also it's more than that in a way that can't be defined. they clicked fast and forgive faster. after drift returns to the lost light, its rare to see one without the other. somehow being attached at the hip even though drift has a conjunx already and hes not looking for another one.

ratchet is not insecure so he very much does not care. in fact, he's happy as long as drift is. and as annoying as rodimus can be, ratchet can't help but be fond of him anyway. so when asked, he'll shrug and guess that they ended up friends as well somewhere down the line.

and its funny to watch other bots come to ratchet with concern over how close drift and rodimus' are, except that humor quickly turns into annoyance the more it happens. the point is that drift and rodimus very much love each other, and probably always will. drift doesnt have to choose between his amica anf his conjunx because one doesn't outrank the other. both ratchet and rodimus are important to him in ways that overlap and ways that don't because relationships are complex and don't always fit in neat boxes.
