Aziraphale, to the Matatron: I don’t want to go to heaven! (that’s a direct quote btw)
Metatron: If you do, you can be with Crowley, though! And you’ll finally be able to love him without the abusive restraints of our fucked up societal norms for once!
Victim-blaming bigots: See, he WANTED to go to heaven he’s so evil! He was totally not coaxed inside it with the promise of freedom only to be trapped again! He’s evil! 😈
@badaziraphaletakes I think this is a #badassaziraphaletake but I’ll leave that up to you to decide.

Hello! I'm an ace-spectrum person, and I'm pretty new to fandoms and I struggled finding SFW/Sex-averse friendly fics, so I thought I would give a few recommendations for those interested!
Lemme know if there's any interest in a Sherlock one or a Harry Potter one!

Hello!
Omg yes, thanks for bringing that out. The fact that Aziraphale was already aware of the dangers of Heaven as early as Before The Beginning is SO important for the story imo. It really bothers me that ppl's selective memory tends to forget that scene when analysing s2. It feels like they're cherry picking evidence to build a version of Aziraphale that fits their opinion instead of collecting all the data to try and understand his actions.
If you look closely, Before The Beginning and The Final Fifteen are parallels of each other up to some point: in the former, Crowley is saying that he can make a difference ("if I was the one in charge I'd like it if ppl asked questions", "hey boss this is a really terrible idea", "how much trouble can one get into for just asking a few questions") and Aziraphale is saying it's dangerous. In the latter, their roles are reversed, Aziraphale is saying they can make a difference and Crowley saying it's no use bc they're toxic (and it IS dangerous). It's funny bc Aziraphale is agreeing with angel!Crowley now, and Crowley is agreeing with cherub!Aziraphale now (showing once again that aziracrow are one and the same), but they're probably not seeing it.
Aziraphale never had this never-ending belief in Heaven ppl attribute to him (he probably thought that he should have that belief, even pretended to sometimes, but he didn't, his actions show us that he didn't). If anything, angel!Crowley trusted Heaven much more than Azi ever did, bc he was sure nothing bad would happen to him. BUT I also don't think he was naive for that, bc he was trying to make a positive change on things, and that's NEVER a stupid thing to do. He also didn't believe Heaven was always right just bc it's Heaven (his questions are evidence of that), even if he trusted them. For characters like Aziraphale and Crowley, in a situation like theirs, we must look at what they do, not at what they say.
Tumblr media
Yes, it also bothers me that some ppl think he's always wanted to go back when in s1 we've seen that he was miserable when he was there, and not wanting to go back to Heaven was the reason for him to help stop Armageddon!! It makes no narrative sense. AND he said it in no uncertain terms "I don't want to go back to Heaven." He said it to the Metatron, but he was retelling this conversation to Crowley, so he said that in front of Crowley, with his own mouth. Crowley knows.
As for not loving Crowley as a demon, I absolutely agree with you and it's all part of the last thing you write about and I think it's an absolutely on point badass take, and it's:
Tumblr media
You are SO DAMN RIGHT about this and it grinds my gears. We are supposed to analyse The Final Fifteen using the whole context of the story we got in the previous eleven and a half episodes! We're not meant to re-contextualise the rest of the show bc of The Final Fifteen? That makes no sense in this story?? Especially bc The Final Fifteen is full of biases. Us being heartbroken, the characters being triggered and emotional, the storytelling trying to hide stuff from us, the fact that they were threatened... There are Clues there, I'm sure, but we have to know the whole context of their relationship to understand them.
It's like trying to analyse your whole self when you're having a panic attack. It's not an accurate depiction of who you are. Analysing a couple using only one of their fights and erasing all of their good moments bc of it is pretty fucking dishonest to them.
Thanks so much for your take, I really, really loved your last paragraph and be sure I'll use it again to comment on other takes here 😁😁😁

Just going to dump a random Aziraphale thought here bc I don't know where else to do it, but not only is it likely that Aziraphale went to Heaven because he was coerced to but also because he may actually believe there's still something worth savign there. An inherent goodness to Heaven and angels and all that. Because he could see how inherently good Jimbriel was when all of the corporate programming was removed from him. Same with Muriel, despite their limited interactions. He wants to save the inherently good and curious and innocent parts of Heaven that do still exist, even if they're buried under all the corporate indifference and cruelty.
This is SUCH a good point! This is actually one of the things I really like about Aziraphale.
Fun fact: It is, anecdotally at least, an Autistic trait to be trusting (in some circumstances), slash to try to see good in people, and so I was always really confused/hurt by people insisting that he shouldn't have taken Jimbriel in/given him another chance/tried to redeem heaven/etc.
