Crowley saying "LEAVE IT TO ME" in his super suave watch-me-do-something-impressive voice to Aziraphale, only to saunter up to the security guard and confidently address him as "army human."

Guys, gals, Good Omens fans, I have deduced what the J in Anthony J. Crowley stands for.
In the book, we are told that Crowley only ever bought petrol to get the James-Bond-Bullet-Hole-Window-Stickers. You can actually see them here.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And, Crowley allegedly had a hand in the television industry.
Therefore, not only has he probably seen the Jame Bond movies, he probably likes them. And, as James Bond is described as "highly intelligent, exceedingly cunning, and diabolically independent" (as stated by the James Bond Wiki on Fandom.com) Crowley most likely enjoys the character.
I might go so far as to say that it could be his favorite.
For these reasons, I suspect that Crowley's middle name is not only a J, it's James. As in James Bond.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

maintaining that the reason crowley asked for holy water in 1860-whatever was that he had the mother of all anxiety spirals after hell dragged him back from edinburgh.
like he’s gonna be rightfully paranoid at this point, he’s gonna have backup plans, he’d be like me and pack a little go-bag despite the low odds of needing it.
after he gets reprimanded by hell (or Whatever Happened There) he spirals for a decade or so until he reaches the conclusion that he needs the Nuclear Bomb Of Demon Deterrents.
yknow when a stranger knocks on your door and it’s probably just a jehovah’s witness or a fedex person but you grab a kitchen knife just in case? and you peek around the corner to try and see through the window? i’m picturing it as that feeling times a billion

Oh look it's another crack theory!
Crowley is the current supreme archangel.
DO NOT ASK NEIL ABOUT FAN THEORY
Okay so hear me out, and look, I SAID CRACK! I have fun crack theories pop in my head every once in a while and I'm gonna write em down. It's not cannon with any of my other ideas or metas it's just *a thing*.
So! If you want to follow me down a wormhole of extrapolation, do so below!
Tumblr media
"There is always a supreme archangel!"
Michael said it not me! Blame her! But look, that line is a choice, and it feels there for a reason. Maybe there IS always a supreme archangel. Maybe it's not a job you're hired for, maybe it's something that's inherited like royalty, and transfers automatically.
The 25 lazarii miracle.
Okay yes, I think it's just love and angel/demon working together is more powerful than apart, shades of grey, all that. BUT nobody else thinks that. Heaven and hell do not think that. They do not think Az and Crowley should have been able to do that miracle by any means. So I'd assume they're scratching their heads, and Aziraphale does tell the Archangels initially that he performs the miracle alone, which I assume would have then been relayed to the Metatron.
"A miracle of enormous power happened last night, the kind of miracle only the mightiest of archangels could perform" ... "How do you know I didn't do it?"
Let's say I'm right, look I'm humoring my own theory aren't I? Does Crowley know? Would he be aware of what happened? Would he feel it? If he did I could definitely see him keeping that card close to the chest, but still being a snarky ass to Shax.
Crowley opens the file in heaven.
So he's at least a Throne or Dominion or above, probably even higher up than that. He says they never change their passwords, and if that's true what else don't they change? What else have they forgotten? Bureaucratic nightmares like heaven often overlook so many things, who's to say a certain high up angel wasn't taken off all the books fully after they became a demon?
Why does the Metatron actually want Aziraphale back in Heaven?
I mean? Sure he and Crowley averted Apocalypse Part 1 last time I guess that's why, but couldn't there have been an easier way than a faux job promotion? I'm thinking: Gabriel is gone, the position of Supreme Archangel is automatically inherited, none of the Archangels in heaven are it, Aziraphale is suddenly accidentally performing a 25 lazarii miracle all by his lonesome? What if the Metatron thinks it's Aziraphale who has been chosen for the role of Supreme Archangel. But there's one thing he's over looked...
A clerical error.
What if it's not Aziraphale but it's Crowley. Crowley was formerly a high ranking angel before the fall. He's still able to access files in heaven, maybe they've forgotten to completely erase him from all the books and databases, and he was next in line, or maybe God just has a funny sense of humor. Angels and demons alike seem to just automatically listen to Crowley this season and do what he asks, Shax calls him "Arch-traitor" he seems like he might just know a bit too much more than he should, and the scene during the trial where Gabriel says, " However I am the only first order Archangel in the room or ya know the universe." Then the camera cuts directly to a close-up shot of Crowley? It's a bit too foreboding in my opinion to be nothing.
Final Thoughts.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This comic is posted on Whickber street between Aziraphale's Bookshop and the Record Shop. Neil had asked that it revolve around the horrible crime of stealing halos. When I see this comic, I can't help but think that the original halo owner is very James Bond, a character our favorite snake like demon loves to portray. I wonder if Anthony J "just a J really" Crowley chose J for a reason more than just a J (maybe........... Jophiel?), and I wonder if he really was fully deserving of his fate during the fall or if there's a bit more to the story.

You can't tell me that during his James Bond phase Crowley wasn't presenting himself as "Crowley, Anthony Crowley"
You’ve cracked it you’ve cracked the code that’s why he got himself the full name thing all of the sudden you did it champ!!!

thirteen years ago when I first read the book, I deduced that J in Anthony J Crowley stands for James as in James Bond yet he (the giant nerd that is Crowley) is too embarrassed to admit it, and to this day I absolutely refuse to believe otherwise

Hello beautiful people! First of all, thank you so much for this blog. Your work is amazing!
I'm looking for some fic suggestions, if you'd be so kind in answering. I loved Slow Show and Old Vines, so I wanted something similar, a long AU fic that has a lot of pinning and some angst, but has a happy ending. Thank you ❤
Hi! The fics you've mentioned are very popular in the fandom, so I'd recommend checking our #fandom favourites tag, as well as our #pining, #human au, and #long fic tags for more to enjoy. Here are more to add...
Between Comfort And Chaos by anathxmadevice (T)
“And how long have you two been a couple?” “Oh, I—” Aziraphale panics. “Ha, well, that’s a funny… We’re not actually—” “We’re just friends.” Crowley says, their voice clear and calm and lightly amused, either because of or in spite of Aziraphale’s flailing attempts to divert the conversation. “Ah, yes, quite.” Aziraphale says, then takes a sip of his drink just for something to do, instead of focussing on the way Crowley said just friends, and how it causes a painful throb in his chest that he has never fully got used to. His memory can only scrabble at the edge of a time where being just friends with Crowley didn’t feel like a particular form of torture. * Or, Aziraphale has been desperately in love with his best friend and housemate Crowley since they were students, but is too scared to do anything about it.
Keep it casual by Kiez21 (E)
Aziraphale has just been dumped by his boyfriend of thirteen years, right before turning thirty. While out with his friends, he meets a red-haired stranger that gives him one of the best nights of his life. Crowley's just moved into Tadfield looking for a fresh start. On his first night out, he invites a handsome stranger for a one night stand. It is just a one night stand, right?
The Anon Before Christmas by foolishlovers (M)
When Crowley’s friend, blogging buddy and business partner Anathema announces her annual Secret Santa Exchange on Tumblr, she is very adamant Crowley should join this year. The old-fashioned (but admittedly compassionate) man he gets assigned to send anonymous messages to every day until Christmas sounds awfully similar to the fussy bookseller that his friends adore, yet Crowley tries to avoid at all costs. But surely his friends would have mentioned if Aziraphale had taken an interest in the Bad Omens fandom as well… right? Or: An Enemies to Lovers Secret Santa Tumblr AU.
It never hurts to keep looking for sunshine by Dervila, elf_on_the_shelf (E)
After Adam's parents die in a car crash, Aziraphale is forced to start taking care of him as more than just an uncle. Don't get him wrong, he loves the little devil, it's just that he is completely clueless and could rather use some help. In comes Crowley, Adam's new nursery school teacher with his amazing skills in dealing with kids. Could he be the answer to all of Aziraphale's prayers - Adam-related and otherwise? Well, it looks like he might be just that, judging by the weird things Aziraphale's heart seems to be doing whenever he sets eyes on the man. Now, if only the tall ginger returned his feelings...
For His Eyes Only by AFrenchFanWriter (M)
Anthony J. Crowley has been an MI6 spy for 10 years, completing successful mission after successful mission under the guidance of his quartermaster, Aziraphale Fell. But this life is starting to take its toll on him as he is getting older; and when, one day, his past comes back to haunt him, Crowley realizes that it might be time for him to hang up his gun and face all the things he has left unaddressed… (Yep, it is basically a James Bond/Q AU!)
Driving in the Dark by Sarah_hadeschild (E)
Aziraphale, a small town librarian with a troubled past, has resigned himself to the impossibility of love. That is, until he meets a rough-around-the-edges motorcycle mechanic who reads Mary Oliver. TW for mentions of a past abusive relationship.

It is time for my favorite game...
Tumblr media
Good Omens, What If.
Now yesterday, I read an amazing post by @ishomieokay, who postulated a very convincing theory that Aziraphale was going to end up being the Big Bad, because Supreme Archangel power was going to corrupt him.
Naturally this made me sad -- until I really started to think about it.
What If - Aziraphale did become power-mad?
What if he did become 'You Bullied Me And Now I'm Your Boss, Bitch' Supreme Archangel. Like it would be so FUCKING BAMF. Utterly horrifying, but utterly BAMF. He walks through the elevator, one of the archangels says something snide (my money is on Sandalphon, asshole), and Aziraphale just Supreme Archangel kicks him through the Heavenly Moon Door and makes him Fall. And while the other archangels are standing there, gaping, he straightens his collar and says, "I think you'll all find I have very little use for abusive language. Do keep that in mind. Where is my office?"
After that it's like as it's Lucifer 2 - The Principality Strikes Back. Aziraphale censuring angels left and right. Uriel doesn't get kicked - Uriel gets beaten for what they said about Crowley and then thrown out for a million mile dive. He makes Michael re-do the entire Second Coming. He's punching and kicking a hole in the archangel system that should be filled by someone who is willing to pull on the brakes. But no one does! Everyone is Too Fucking Scared.
The Metatron realizes that he hasn't trapped Aziraphale up there with them, they are all trapped here by A z i r a p h a l e. Aziraphale who is going to burn everything down because none of it is worthy (Aziraphale isn't worthy) of God's Love and they are just going to tear Heaven and Hell down to the nubs in the floor, and maybe Earth too because you know what, none of it is worthy of God (Crowley). Finally, Saraquel has had enough. She slaps the Down Button to Earth. Rolls herself into whatever dive bar that Crowley is in, and tells him point blank that if he doesn't help stop Aziraphale, it's going to be worse than Armageddon. Everything is going to be destroyed down to atoms, even wine.
Crowley gets to do two things that he's probably always wanted to do. One, he gets to be James Bond. Breaking into the Heaven (the Bond villain lair), knocking out some angel guards, maybe even punching Metatron in the face for getting them all into this situation in the first place. Second, he gets to kick open the doors to the Supreme Archangel's office, stare Aziraphale down from where he's seated behind his invisible glass desk (I imagine him petting a white duck. Why? I don't know.), looking forbidding and dressed in a silver white that matches his hair and his beard. Stereo-typical God, y'know.
And they stare at each other, for a long moment, glowering with all the hurt, and pain, and still - still - love that they have both known for six thousand years. Finally, Aziraphale speaks, his purple eyes flickering, "So what exactly are you supposed to be?" Crowley smiles That Sharp Smile, that one that Aziraphale adores. The one he actually fears. Crowley reaches behind his coat, and says, "Me? Crowley. Anthony J. Crowley. And I'm now the world's greatest magician, because I'm about to make you disappear." Aziraphale tenses in his throne, filled with that same sense of dread and can it be, hope? that Crowley is here to end him. Crowley doesn't look away as he growls, "Hocus Pocus, Supreme Arsehole." He pulls in front of him .... a bird cage. With a nightingale in it. Who immediately begins to sing. Crowley takes off his glasses, looks Aziraphale dead in the eye, and speaks in a rough voice. "I forgive you."
And just like that ... the Supreme Archangel crumbles down into dust, leaving behind a weeping Aziraphale.
End scene.
... I'd probably add some explosions in there. Just for fun. Oooooh and when Crowley is kicking ass through Heaven the song that plays is 'Don't Stop Me Now'.

Fic stats meme! 💌
Rules: Give us the links to your fic with the most hits, second most kudos, third most comments, fourth most bookmarks, fifth most words, and fic with the least words.
Most hits: Whatever Comes After (RDR2)
What if Arthur Morgan deserved better? What if, during his journey, he had met Albert Mason a few times more? And what if the terrible ending that was expected for him had turned into something else entirely? This is the retelling of (some of) the events of Red Dead Redemption 2, from the Gilded Cage to whatever comes after.
2. Most kudos (otherwise it would also be WCA): To the End of the Ocean (OFMD)
1718. Still the Golden Age of Piracy.
Now free from his old life, Stede Bonnet, aka the Gentleman Pirate, set course for his ship, his crew, and a life full of adventure alongside his newfound love, Edward Teach, aka Blackbeard.
Things did not go as planned...
(Or my humble take on what could happen in season 2, directly following that heartbreaking finale.)
3. Second most comments (otherwise it would also be TtEotO): For His Eyes Only (GO)
Anthony J. Crowley has been an MI6 spy for 10 years, completing successful mission after successful mission under the guidance of his quartermaster, Aziraphale Fell. But this life is starting to take its toll on him as he is getting older; and when, one day, his past comes back to haunt him, Crowley realizes that it might be time for him to hang up his gun and face all the things he has left unaddressed…
(Yep, it is basically a James Bond/Q AU, and it's still a WIP!)
4. Fourth most bookmarks: Getting Closer (GO)
After the averted Apocalypse, Crowley notices some changes in his relationship with Aziraphale. Changes that give him hope...
Or
How Crowley moved into Aziraphale's bookshop.
5. Fifth most words: Senses & Sensitivity (GO)
Aziraphale doesn't like it when Crowley calls him "over-sensitive". But maybe the demon is right (as he usually is)...
A study of Aziraphale's six senses, including memorable events over the course of history - from the Garden of Eden to the very first day of the rest of their lives.
Featuring a certain demon, a lot of gifts and meaningful glances, as well as repressed feelings... until they aren't anymore.
6. Fic with the least words: When All Is Said and Done (GO)
A short epilogue. After Aziraphale goes back to Heaven, after the Second Coming, after humanity is saved again. In which Aziraphale and Crowley get their happily ever after.
Thanks for the tag @aracloptia that was fun! <3
No pressure tags: @hasturswig @imwritesometimes and anyone who wants to play!

Dear GO fandom I found an amazing video where a person made up angelic language. Featuring:
- Encoding secondary messages within normal speech patterns that humans could not interpret even if they understood the language (if I understood correctly)
- Not having to obey the laws of time
- Constantly praising God (or blaspheming if you're Fallen)
Also I understood about 20% of what was happening so I could be totally wrong! Feel free to correct me. This was super cool, you should definitely check it out!!!
Oh and it's also perfect for Aziraphale "Double Speak Bitch" Ziraphale Fell and Anthony "I want to be James Bond when I grow up" Janthony Crowley.
