I’ve been unable to cope with the fact that when Aziraphale’s turnip trick wasn’t working and Mrs. H protests saying “I thought you said he was a magician”, Crowley’s response was the most precious thing ever. He knows DAMN WELL that Aziraphale sucks at slight of hand, and he could’ve said anything here. He could’ve been like, “oh he has stage fright”, or “he’s just used to smaller crowds”, or he could’ve lied and said it was part of the act somehow. But instead he is ADAMANT when he says “he is!” And just to add an extra touch, he tries to help with the turnip trick 🥲🥲🥲 because Crowley “just doesn’t want to see [him] embarrassed” 😭😭😭

I sensed a mutual indifference behind polite smiles and had the overwhelming impression that, more and more frequently, I was watching people who didn't really know why they were living. Krzysztof Kieślowski

I'm so needlessly invested in earnest and lily's sibling relationship tbh. like how did he feel living over 30 years longer than his older sister?? how old was she when he was born? how old was he when she died? did he visit her grave often?? what was his relationship w/ big bob like and how did big bob take the news that lily's last remaining family member had died??? were they close? why did bob's relationship with his uncle become estranged?? was it after lily died? who was the one who stopped keeping up that connection???

Something I only realized because I think someone pointed it out somewhere, if Professor Layton really took place in the 60s, like with history going as it did in our world, with Curious Village happening in 1960, this means that Hershel Layton himself would have served in World War 2

I like chance meetings - life is full of them. Every day, without realising it, I pass people whom I should know. Everyone will get up, leave, & go on their own way. And they'll never meet again. If they do, they won't realise that it's not for the first time. Krzysztof Kieslowski

When I said: "You'll outlast me, you live more carefully." He said: "Write out what you want to." Ok, it's hard to say I knew him well, He was enigmatic to himself. Which of us was more aware? Which the elder? I was born November fifth. He on October 13th - a few weeks premature, you following me? He was born three weeks before me, my dear, But he was a premature baby. Were we both conceived at the same instant? February 5th 1941, the dead middle of winter, In the heart of World War Two Was I born at the right time? For 70 years his arm has been around my shoulder, He's dazzled me with gifts. I nurtured him in his youth. He brought me into prominence. I taught him to sing. He connected my voice to the world. I made him tall. All of our personal belongings are intertwined. We say it's exhausting to compete, But we shine for each other. It's still our favourite game. It goes on, this embrace, whether I speak for him or he for me: Love ruled our lives. It rules the mourners, And the winner of longevity.
Art Garfunkel's Poem performed at Paul Simon's 70th Birthday Party, 2011
Asked what Simon's reaction was, he admitted: "I don't know - he was at the other side of the room. I dared not look."

The 1827 story explains why it's the last significantly different Aziraphale look we've had to date and it's so romantic...
Aziraphale and Crowley on their 1827 graveyard date below and no tartan yet to be seen, right? And look which one of them is in a bow tie. :)
Tumblr media
Aziraphale is still in his brown and beige tones and Crowley in his signature black and red. In this story, one of the elements of it is that Elspeth is less inclined to listen to Aziraphale than Crowley because Aziraphale is English (to the extent that him and Crowley are anything of Earth), while Crowley here has dropped his traditional English accent and adopted a Scottish persona. The English versus Scottish thing here becomes a parallel to Heaven versus Hell. Aziraphale undergoes huge change in this story and winds up on the side of Crowley and Elspeth and Mr. Dalrymple by the end of it. It's after this that he changes his outfit into what we see today and the most signature piece of it is his tartan bow tie, yes?
Tumblr media
The first version of this is the one he has on in the 1860s scene, which is bigger and longer but the same colors. The rest (minus the hat) is what he's been wearing ever since. So we're saying that the tartan cravat look was born of 1827 and its colors (beige, blue, red) represent him and Crowley. *His damn tartan collar is fashion saying "our own side" and Aziraphale's been wearing it since after the 1827 scene*... So then they break up in the above scene in the 1860s and Aziraphale still has the tartan cravat on in the 1880s, *while he's making friends at a discreet gentleman's club*...
Tumblr media
But by the time we see him in 1941 (and likely for awhile before that), he's settled into the look he still has into 2023 and the only difference is that he's changed the cravat to a bow tie. Like what Crowley had on during their date in 1827. Aziraphale has been out here with an "our own side" married accessory since the 1800s and these two idiots still can't get it together lol.
I don't know when the first time was that Crowley saw Aziraphale in the bow tie. I think they might have seen one another between the breakup scene and 1941, though there's some evidence that that might not be the case, but either way, the first time he saw that?! And if it was 1941 and he shows up to rescue Aziraphale, who is pretending to be all pissy about it while wearing a bowtie he designed out of love for and yearning for Crowley?! Quit teasing the poor demon, Aziraphale-- you're gonna discorporate him...
Tumblr media
Aziraphale hasn't changed his look since the late 1800s because the tartan bow tie is a reference to his and Crowley's date in 1827 and so the look is a way of saying he loves him and not taking off the tartan bow tie is an equivalent of not taking off a wedding ring.
