hey, neil! my sister didnt realize that crowley and aziraphale were in love until the last episode and the scene where he confesses.
then she asked me why you went "the gay route"
what do i say to her?
i love crowley and aziraphale a lot btw
You could perhaps suggest that she watches it all again, and it may make more sense to her.
So I’m going to be really honest right now. I’m devastated with the final cancellation of Our Flag Means Death, I had such certainty that it’d be picked up that this scenario never crossed my mind. It’s not fair and I’m angry. This show meant so much to me and I’m so grateful for the things I’ve learned about myself because of this show. I know for many people that seems crazy that a show could lead to the changes that I’ve made in my life but well it’s the truth. I want to first and foremost say thank you to everyone who created this thing that I hold so dearly. And on the off chance they see this insignificant post THANK YOU. From the bottom of my heart I am grateful.
OFMD made me be able to acknowledge my queerness to myself and I’ve been able to come out to special people in my life and that was something I never thought I’d ever do. I remember watching Calypso’s Birthday for the 3rd time and it just hit me that you can be happy and queer. Being raised as a conservative evangelical dealing with my queerness was a net loss in my mind. I was scared of what I would lose coming out. That’s why I relate to Stede so much, I was okay following the path of least resistance and that was what my family and the church wanted for me. This show showed me what life after the closet could be if I was brave enough to choose it. OFMD made me so happy that I could no longer inhibit myself.
It wasn’t just the main relationship that did that. It was the crew of the Revenge. The love and kindness of this show gave me a sense of what I want in a community. In January I had a bad flare up in my chronic illness and because of this community I felt safe enough to trust my friends to help me. And it was hard and I had to sit with myself. I find I internalize fiction and stories to process my own shit and OFMD has been my go to for teaching me how to be kind to myself. I love this show and its kindness and this fandom. And as much as I’m broken hearted about these turn of events I’m okay because what we have is special.
So all of this to say is thank you. Thank you David Jenkins and Rhys Darby and Taika Watiti and everyone else. I doubt it will but if this reaches any of yall know that you made a great and good impact on my life and future.
And last but not least…. FUCK YOU HBO/WB AND FUCK YOU CAPITALISM AND THE STREAMING MODEL!!!!
No, but Alastor reminds me so much of both Koro-Sensei and Flowey from Undertale simultaneously, and it's bringing up so many new theories and headcanons for this character.
Have you heard that Our Flag Means Death got canceled this week? We as a fandom are devastated and have created a petition in order to bring it back for one final season. I know a lot of the audience of Good Omens are also familiar with this show, so could you please share the link to our petition?
We’re doing a big push for signatures today! We need as many numbers as possible if we’re to get this lovely show saved. Sign the petition. Share it with everyone you know. Let’s get our damned men back! 🫡🏴☠️❤️
And that's another one of my comfort queer shows just cancelled, I heard a similar thing about What We Do in the Shadows, should I even watch it now? I'm so upset you guys :(
thanks the goddess for fanfics. i'm so sad and i really hate the hbo new board (since hbo was bought by discovery they have made some atrocious decisions around many shows with a big damage to creators and fans).
but i see a pattern, which is giving me even more grief.
the two queer shows of this and last decade, ofmd and sense8, were cut short. and that's because queer joy is dangerous. Black, Brown and Indigenous joy is dangerous. autistic joy is dangerous.
that's because NOT perpetuating racism, lgbtq+phobia, toxic masculinity, sexism, colonialism; because bringing queer joy, bringing Black, Brown and Indigenous joy; bringing trans joy - it is a danger for the heteromatrix; it is a danger for whyte supremacy; it is disturbing the comfortable; it is comforting the disturbed; it is pushing the semantic field of "possible", "expectable" and "thinkable".
Our Joy Is Revolutionary.
so thanks the fandom writers for the fanfics, because they are awesome.
support your favourite fanfic writers.
secure your access to the show; if you can, give your thanks to the creators for giving us this joy; take care of yourself and your community; allow yourself to feel loss and grief.
credit where it's due: i picked up the revolutionary joy take long ago in one of Asiatu Lawoyin's posts on their ig. they are a Black, disabled, AuDHD, ND+, trans, queer, abolitionist educator and coach and i encourage all of you to check them out.
You guys are commenting on the fics you read right? You’re at least leaving kudos on the Astarion smut and the pairs that have less than 20 fics for them too? You’re bookmarking stories you really like that are still being updated and ones that haven’t been touched in over a year right?
You know that even the smallest interactions are like cocaine to fic writers right? You understand how important a string of emoji hearts left behind on chapter at three am is right?? Right????
You’re treating AO3 like a community and not a content factory….right?
If it turns out that Aziraphale was spewing worst bullshit during the confession scene thinking that Crowley will catch up that there is something wrong, but Crowley didn’t, then no wonder Aziraphale was having a mental breakdown in that elevator because he just realised Crowley really believed him when he said the worst things to him.
He really believed Aziraphale would say that to him.
And Aziraphale has to wonder what did he do for him to think Aziraphale would hurt him like this.
