Dew: You don’t have to have a mohawk and spikes to be a rebel; being a rebel is all about breaking the rules! *Points to a “no feeding the ducks” sign while throwing duck food into the pond.* Feeding the ducks when you’re not supposed to? Hell, yeah! Fuck the system! Just make sure you’re not feeding them bread or some shit; you wanna fuck THE system, not THEIR digestive systems.
-No!!I left of my own free will.
-I do't believe.
-But it is so. And.. thanks for sending my clothes.
-It was Muriel's idea! I'd rather watch you walk this Road of Shame naked.
*the duck finally bites him*
An alternative version, you guessed it. Aziraphale was allowed to have as many earthly things as he needed. He immediately got a cactus named Crowley and a personal mug. And a personal spoon. And a personal tea jar. Perhaps he had become too individualistic for Heaven.
A year ago I made a sketch for this thing, (since my friends challenged me to do it) Then I forgot about it. But it reappeared on my table so...here it is.
Now I can go back to drawing all other great thing.
@mizgnomer shared this hi res image, and once I recovered from passing out I realized three things.
Crowley's waistcoat is a beautiful brocade of vines and leaves. We don't know for sure when his plant hobby started, (only that he start "talking" to them after he learned about it in the early 1970s) but now I'm envisioning his Regency/Victorian greenhouse full of exotic plant life and that sounds just glorious. Plant collecting was a popular hobby amongst gentlemen at the time and it isn't too much of a stretch to think that he may have the same plants for 100s of years (they wouldn't dare die) - maybe the plant collection got started around the same time as the bookshop...
That black jewel at his throat looks awfully familiar. It has a different setting than the one on Furfur's ring but... (launching fully into headcanon now) what if the stone is an item of demonic power that gets taken when Crowley is pulled back to Hell and ends up with Furfur? I don't have a good reason for Crowley to have it in the first place, but if someone wants to run with this idea I'd love your thoughts.
1827 Crowley is the best Crowley of season 2 (I KNOW this is controversial but this look kills me dead I am deceased)
Papercraft commission of Aziraphale and Crowley (and a duck expectantly awaiting bread)! I loved seeing the huge variety of fashion these guys got to wear throughout their long history, but I admit I do have a particular fondness for these outfits in particular. A classy, clandestine meeting by the duck pond!
