8Rincewind, that sounds like mischief territory to me but, being Australian, I’ve never experienced the M25 so I might be wrong. As for the mobile communications, I find that quite relaxing. He also made a turncoat of the antichrist and is cosmic BFFs with an angel, so theres that.

[@8Rincewind]

@@laurahibble5947 I was kind of joking and so was the book / film. A big part of the story is that neither angels nor demons are particularly good in the long. Crowley in particular says that he didn't fall, he just "wandered vaguely downwards". A defining trait of Crowley and Aziraphel are how much they love humanity and his they've embraced it. Whatever the case Crowley does seem broadly quite good at doing "demonic evil". His redesign of the M25 actually resulted in it going on fire. His explanation of his acts do make a lot of sense. You might supposedly value losing your mobile network, but many people depend on it and will become very angry if it goes down. Millions of people in London being slightly to extremely angry, is sure to make thousands of people less virtuous. In contrast, a demon tempting one priest with a prostitute is relatively small scale.

[@kimberlycroteau86]

I've listened to this several times, but I think this is the first time where I've truly appreciated how much Aziraphale is trying to get Crowley to come over without outright asking him to. He's "shouldn't you be out and about making people miserable," and when Crowley says they're miserable enough, Aziraphale specifically points out, "I'm not," as if to say "come and make me 'miserable'." And then Aziraphale turns down Crowley's offer to come over by stating that "it would be against all the rules," which he knows is like catnip to a demon. Plus, he mentions the burglary. Out loud, sure, he says he handled it, but the subtext is, "We need to fight together, which means we need to BE together." Sometimes, I just can't get over how good the writing for series is. Three and a half minutes and you can perfectly understand the situation AND the characters' personalities.

That was clever ! It’s such a shame that Aziraphale’s attempt at an angelic temptation was too subtle for Crowley to get the hint...

Based on what is established about their nature within the universe (no sex/gender, appart from them choosing to be male- or female-presenting; no such thing as reproduction), it appears that both angels and demons are generally ace and panromantic. Furthermore, based on their treatment of each other and their zero fucks given about gender, norm or sides, I choose to believe they _are_ in a romantic relationship, that just doesn't exactly *work* the way humans would imagine it to. In their form of existence establishing such a thing as "boyfriends" was just completely irrelevant, they just love each other, whether in the way 99.9% of the fanbase obviously perceives it or any other.

Came back to relisten after s2 and BOY does this hit differently. Aziraphale sounded so disappointed to turn Crowley down even though he’s the one doing it himself. They’ve always been like this: they know exactly what they want from each other, but Aziraphale’s never felt like he could act on it. It’s always on Crowley, the one with more relative freedom, to begin the temptation, and on Aziraphale to deny himself.

TRANSCRIPT: *phone ringing* C: What. A: Uh, hello. It's me! C: I know it's you, Aziraphale. A: Yes, well, just calling to see how you were doing in lockdown. C: I'm BORED. I'm so very, very BORED. Transcendentally bored. There's nothing to do here! I've decided that if I can't think of anything to do within the next 2 days, I'm gonna have a nap, and I'll set the alarm clock for June. It's gotta be all over by June, innit? A: Um, look, if this isn't a silly question...oughtn't you to be out and about? Doing things? C: Out and about? While we're all meant to be staying home? A: Well yes, but you're a demon, you've got a job to do. Obviously you aren't actually going to get ill or even spread a disease, but you could set a bad example. Get ominously close to people, tell everyone there's a party going on or something. C: I--I COULD do that, I mean I COULD, but if I did then...weeeelll, people might follow my bad example and get ill, or even die. And I know I ought to be making people's lives even worse, but everyone's so miserable cooped up right now anyway and I just, well, don't have the heart for it. A: I'm not miserable. C: Really? I suppose you're off nipping around London doing miracles for people from a socially approved distance. A: Oh no, I can't do that. We're all meant to stay at home. I put up the closed sign on the window, and I've been catching up on my reading. Do you know, I've never had so few customers, not in 200 years! Although there were a few young lads a couple of nights ago who broke in through the back and tried to steal the cash box, but they soon saw the error of their ways. C: Did you smite them with your wrath? A: Well I certainly gave them a good talking to, and I sent each of them home with cake. C: Cake. A: Quite a lot of cake, actually. C: Eeeeh...I'm going to regret asking, but...? A: Well all the restaurants and cafes are closed, but it turns out I have a whole cookbook section here in the bookshop. And I got peckish. I've now baked bundt cake, sponge cake, angel's food cake, four different kinds of sourdough loaf, schwarzwälder kirschtorte - although I had to miracle in the cherries - and then once I've baked them I have to eat them all myself. Which is why I was so delighted-- C: To send your burglars home laden with baked goods, yes, I follow. You know, I could hunker down at your place. Slither over and watch you eat cake. I could bring a bottle of, a case of something drinkable. A: *stammering* I'm afraid that would be breaking all the rules. Out of the question! I'll see you when this is over. C: Right. I'm setting the alarm clock for July. Goodnight, angel.

Hungry are you? Anyway if you can't eat them all I'm sure you can sell or trade them. They are quite delicious if I say so myself!" Then piles *dozens* of gourmet cakes in their arms to the point of them toppling over. "Now I'd run on home if I were you, some of those have custard fillings and you certainly don't want them to get too warm! Hurry on!

That was legit the happiest tone I've ever heard from him and I was legit creeped out for a second there. 😁

[@LarsBlitzer]

Honestly, that's the dream for independent booksellers. It's certainly mine.

[@ShayTheBean]

I can actually HEAR the happy wiggle

[@qwertyCandy]

I really want to give you a like but there are 666 of them. What do I do?

[@Harukurochan]

I love how everyone in the fandom is now writing fanfics or drawing fanart about this video, and how almost all of them agree that they met up right afterwards. Also, GNU Terry Pratchett.

[@normalguy246]

the creators of Good Omens are fucking _experts_ at playing with viewers' hearts with dialogues like these. you guys are TOO good at this. which means that one of you has to have an AO3 account.

[@misscherrypie7788]

It’s Micheal.

[@yeOldeThorne]

Brb gonna go look for Neil Gaiman's AO3 account

[@Oreoss]

micheal with his ao3 is at it again!!… *sniffs while watching the episode of ep 6 season 2*

[@tiffanynichols7374]

It's absolutely Michael.

"Good night, angel," - the demon Crowley.

"It turns out I have a whole cookbook section in the bookshop." Did he not know his own bookshop had cookbooks?

[@sharonspears-mandeville2369]

Nah,he sounded so pleasantly surprised about it- _like if he was just trying to do some spring cleaning around his bookshop,and immediately stumbled upon it in a far corner of the shop that he did not know that they were there (with some in storage) previously,put them away and only took the ones that had a..particular recipe or two that caught his eye (though,to be fair-one or two is a bit of an understatement with Mr.Aziraphale over here,y'know-bookworm and all..haha-haha..) and thus tried to make them himself,apparently-so then.._

[@jessmclean8980]

I bet Crowley miracled it there when Aziraphale was sleeping so he’d have something to do in lockdown. I can definitely imagine him sneaking in (via miracle of course, wouldn’t want to make anyone ill) to check on Aziraphale as he is sleeping

[@andreaeray]

Aziraphale doesn't really like to sell the books, just collect them. And given his organisational methods, and the number of years the bookstore has been there ...

[@jessical205]

Or Adam put them there

[@Ebonydoe]

@@jessical205 I vote this one lol one of Adam's little gifts

[@lisa_vxng]

that was the best pronunciation on "schwarzwälder Kirschtorte" I have ever heard by an English native speaker damn edit from future me who now knows a lot more about the Welsh language: that makes sense

[@Sentientmatter8]

He's not a native speaker. Aziraphale's first tongue was probably heavenly song, shortly followed by... probably Sanskrit?

[@pepe-gfv2]

@@Sentientmatter8 Michael's native language is English tho. That's what Lisa was trying to say

[@cherieuk4488]

I thought his first language was Welsh...?

[@rebekahanderson5020]

This is Michael Christopher Sheen OBE we are talking about. Of course he can pronounce things. *scoff* :)

[@lisa_vxng]
