Police: You’re under arrest for trying to carry three people on a single motorcycle.
Nina, with Muriel and Maggie behind them: Wait, what do you mean THREE?!
Police: Yes…three.
Nina: Oh, my God— What the fuck!?
Police: Wha-
Nina: Crowley FUCKING FELL OFF!
§
Crowley: *coughs blood*
Nina: Don't die, Crowley!
Crowley: Don't tell me what to do!
§
Aziraphale: We have to plan, we have to figure something out.
Crowley: Aziraphale, when have any of our plans ever actually worked? We plan, we get there, all hell breaks loose.
§
Crowley: I’m a masochist, not a loser.
§
Muriel: Hello, I'm Muriel. I work at a shop now. Here to help. Look, they gave me a badge with my name on it in case I forget it. Very helpful, as that does happen.
§
Jim: Do we have any orange juice left?
Crowley: *pours the remaining juice into their cup*
Crowley: Sorry, we’re all out.
§
Aziraphale: Okay, but what if we went to dinner not as friends this time?
Crowley: AS ENEMIES?!
Aziraphale:
§
Maggie: One time I went to hand Nina a bowl of soup. I wanted to say “Careful, it’s hot!”, and “Here’s your soup!”, so instead I blurted out “Careful it’s soup.”
§
Crowley: I’m gonna mix a can of Red Bull with seventeen shots of espresso in a fishbowl and then chug it while Kids by MGMT plays in the background so I can perceive twenty-three spatial dimensions and fight my own soul.
§
Aziraphale: That sounds like a terrible plan.
Crowley: Oh, we've had worse.

§
Crowley: I’m not mad, I just need to know why you two had a fake ID.
Muriel: *Incoherent mumbling*
Crowley: Huh?
Muriel: …You need to be 18 to hold the puppies at PetCo.
§
Crowley: My gender is in a constant state of flux.
Okay, the next installment of Domestic Burlesque is up. This deals with some heavy elements so mind the tags. Please tell me what you think!
As people continue to argue that intimacy isn’t necessary on TV, we’ll keep championing more of it. Intimacy matters. Romance matters. Consensual sex scenes that, yes, elevate the plot (and even if they didn’t) matter. We wrote about it for Severance’s “Attila,” and now it’s important to address it in School Spirits‘ “Anatomy of a Fallout Shelter.”

Noah’s “judge my wife if you dare” look is severely underrated. It’s so beautiful that he loves her so much even though everyone else thinks she’s weird. He sees the sweet, generous, thoughtful woman that Astrid is. Religion, the opinions of others, having children, none of it matters because he just loves her.
people using generative ai to write fanfiction for them is CRAZY. stay up until four in the morning hopping back and forth between your pinterest boards, a random synonyms website, and google docs where you’re stuck in the middle of a sentence deciding whether to refer to a character by their name or hair colour as the lord intended.
Spoilers below:
I completely forgot about the speeches Shax gives to Aziraphale. So much makes sense now.
- She says, “I didn’t think you were his type”
- She calls him “Crowley’s emotional support angel”
- She teases him about his love of human things, specifically food. Something Gabriel makes him feel bad about multiple times in season 1.
She brings up every perceived failing of his, and then moments later is given (read: manipulated) into atoning all of his flaws.
And him and Crowley both being angels who aren’t actually very good at it would put them on equal footing.
No wonder he makes the choice he does.
Okay, part 5 my of Domestic Burlesque series is up! We’re out of the dark times, yay!
Those who avoid anti-AI discourse are the ones who don't like getting exposed or called-out as lazy or brain-dead.
Deep down, they already know that.
Spoilers below:
I think its such a big step for Aziraphale to admit out loud that Gabriel (who enforced Heaven’s will) used be awful.
The reason he’s so flirty after the church scene is because he realized he’s in love with Crowley. But once Crowley leaves, and he has time to think over everything…he gets scared.
I couldn’t for the life of me figure out why “Every Breath You Take” is on Crowley’s playlist. Other than it provides the “E” to spell out ‘tempting’. But there’s plenty of other songs they could’ve chosen. So why pick the stalker song?
Then it occurred to me that it’s not about Aziraphale. It’s how Crowley feels Heaven and Hell watch him.
I will forever choose to believe that the metacrisis lets Donna and Rose Noble stay immortal with Fourteen forever.
This has no impact on anything. They still have family dinners and forever take low-key trips through time and space.
No more angst. Just family and magic and happiness and the Doctor in the Tardis with his best friend and his niece.
