Very sad

PLEASE DO NOT ASK NEIL ABOUT FAN THEORIES!

The very compelling theory about the kiss including an object exchange (credit to this post by @melbatron5000 and this post by @somehow-a-human) has me questioning more about how the kiss played out.

After Aziraphale has clutched Crowley's back and lifted himself into it, the camera cuts and we see them again from the side. It's very subtle but it does look like Crowley's cheek puffs out just the tiniest bit right before the kiss breaks. I couldn't get a good GIF, and maybe I'm seeing things.

This would explain something that has troubled me for a while, which is why Aziraphale's hands go from holding Crowley to flying back in the air again. But suddenly having an unexpected piece of metal shoved into your mouth would do it.

So that's maybe one mystery solved (or maybe not, see below). Now the part I don't understand is when Crowley puts the object into his mouth in the first place. Did he do it when the camera is not trained on him after "we could have been ... us"?

OR are we also dealing with a time stoppage/bubble during the kiss? If so, then cancel the above because Aziraphale would be expecting the item. He would be acting shock for the Metatron (not necessarily faking the rest of the scene, just the ending here).

AND how does this play into how we understand their relationship? Is this a first kiss that Crowley has used for a dual purpose? Is that part of Aziraphale's conflicted reaction? It being a first kiss would align with Crowley being a rifle virgin during the bullet catch.

Which makes it an even sadder moment, a first kiss that has had to be sacrified to this other, more practical purpose.

OR if we're dealing with a time stoppage, did they take the chance then to kiss properly?

OR maybe they've kissed before (1941?) or been shagging through the ages or don't really want to kiss. Honestly, I could believe six impossible things before breakfast about these two.

In closing, don't forget you can always watch the kiss slowed down and be sadder!

I would like to apologize for something I wrote but almost no one read. A couple of days ago I saw an analysis of the interview they did with Neil and where they talked about the impact that the requests for "a kiss between Crowley and Aziraphale" had had a negative feeling on Neil, who wrote about that kiss but not how people wanted.

In my writing I regret that the actions of the toxic fandom negatively influenced his work. I described it as Neil's revenge for the toxic requests where many of us were victims of that.

Someone reading tagged Neil asking if he had done that and he responded in my post "No." Out of shame I erased what I had written. I apologize to him if he reads this.

However, as a follower I feel that the toxic requests and the fandom's insistence on wanting to manipulate the author generate negative consequences.

I apologize to Neil for my unfortunate interpretation of the interview.

Crowley: Are you okay?  Aziraphale: Yeah, it was just the onions.  Crowley:*Picks up an onion* What the fuck did you say to my husband?

[angelasiol]

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS?! O_O :)))

[angelasiol]

This:

Crowley doesn't trust anyone, not even Aziraphale, to show himself weak.

Aziraphale didn't even notice that it was weird that he had his plants in the car, didn't he notice that it was broken? Neil once said that Crowley was too proud to say he lived in his car.

The ego of a former archangel. He chose his life alone and is not even able to speak honestly and when he does things go wrong.

This leaves many questions about the relationship between the two, it simply seems at times that they do not know each other.... after 6000 years....

[angelasiol]

Some might say, Aziraphale is manipulative. But be honest, who could resist this face??????

[angelasiol]

There's been brilliant meta written about Aziraphale mostly -- not completely, I'd argue, but mostly -- living in the "Jane Austen as romance novelist" reality of S2. And Crowley mostly living in the "Jane Austen as spy master" version of S2.

But we recognize that they've switched by that last morning, right? Crowley is in his Mr. Darcy era and Aziraphale has remembered -- I don't think he really forgot, but perhaps tried to forget -- that they belong to the fash and there is seemingly no escape. Right?

It is often said that Crowley and Aziraphale did not speak from 1941 until the 1970s, but I believe that they did have communication. 1. They had an agreement where they had divided the work by cities. Each one acted by performing miracles and temptations. This way they respected each other's work, and did not intervene in each other's work. The assignments had to be communicated in some way. 2. In the book and series they say that they usually met in a park to talk. 3. It can be said that from 1941 until the 90s they had not met again in the bookstore since they had a pending emotional issue that did not materialize, but they did meet in other places.

The constant play of light and shadow:

Pinned on a cross- pinned with a kiss.

It speaks volumes that the light in the bookshop is due to Aziraphale being magical. So it is always sunny and the mood there depends on the situation.

Nothing natural about the light, it is always intentional.

neil gaiman, i must ask, WILL THEY KISS AGAIN IN SEASON THREE?????

thank you for your time

Having seen how badly the kiss in Season 2 went down, I cannot imagine any more kissing in the future.

[angelasiol]

What you say is true. Aziraphale is a box of surprises, and above all he is and always has been independent. It is curious that he has sought to adapt to humanity not only in terms of style, but that he has tried to do things for his own self-esteem and enjoyment.

He has "cultivated himself", a man who would give you many surprises. The fandom describes him more in his effeminate way, limiting him to a man with an impressive sexual appetite (which is something he is not) and judging him for deciding to go to heaven.

Aziraphale is a man who has done what he wanted. He is a complete man despite his anxieties. Crowley doesn't define him but they make a good team.

I think S3 will be rather a character reveal for Aziraphale than a character development. The main arc of his development was in S1. And in the S2 flashbacks.

I think he knows and understands more than the fandom thinks of him.

He's just very secretive. He successfully lied to both Heaven and Crowley about the Antichrist. They both didn't share important information with each other in S2.

He has a driving licence and a gun licence. He took French and magic lessons. He can draw portraits. He keeps a diary. He's full of surprises.

It's interesting to think about Aziraphale in heaven. I imagine that when he meets Crowley again we will find a thinner angel. (I know, I don't know if it is possible for Michael Sheen to lose a little weight to give coherence that he has not come out of heaven to eat)

He is like a convict who has not been able to do anything he likes. No restaurants, no music, no custom-made suits, no bookstore, no Crowley.

I would like to think of a secret scene where he is devouring a chocolate, or escaping from heaven to eat sushi or go to a concert.

I wonder if S3 will see Aziraphale's suffering in such a basic way?

Ultimately he has lost everything.

I suppose his big ego will be present as compensation.

I wonder if Crowley will notice his suffering, or do something to alleviate it even though they no longer speak.

What do you think?

From the DVD commentary, episode 3:

Neil: I kind of wound up having to write this as a love story, and part of the joy of writing a love story is the break-up, because you can’t get back together again unless you’ve broken up. So this is the break-up.

Douglas: I think you can say it’s two actors working at peak.

Neil: They really are. I mean they’re so good. And I remember watching this being shot, knowing how good it was.

…

Douglas: We landed on that location kind of by mistake through scheduling, and I’m so glad we did it that way in the end.

Neil: Oh yeah, it was origially set in-

Douglas: It was set at night, wasn’t it?

Neil: It was set at night in St. James’s Park.

Douglas: But the Queen wouldn’t let us put on lights in St. James’s Park at night.

Neil: Bless.
