The Coffee Taste Test
So, the Metatron. Metatrash. That d*ck who ruined our lives. Why did he choose Aziraphale of all angels to be the replacement Supreme?
Obviously, he needed to separate our ineffable idiots (affectionate). 25 Lazarii miracle, anyone?
But it's more than that.
He could have separated them by any number of means. He could have written one or both of them out of the Book of Life (if he still has it, which I'm not convinced). He could have simply discorporated one or both of them - Hell doesn't seem likely to give Crowley a body back at this point, do they?
So why make Aziraphale the new Supreme?
He needed an angel he could easily control.
More under the cut, including what I think was up with The Coffee. (Spoiler: Not poison).
We've now lost two "Princes of Heaven" and we have a suggestion of an Institutional Problem (TM). He can't have it happen again. He needs someone in that role that will do as he tells them. And in searching for an angel who fits that bill, he found Aziraphale.
He even tells him during their conversation that he's been going over Aziraphale's previous exploits. Know what he'd find when reviewing those?
A whole history of a demon successfully manipulating Aziraphale. (We know that's not the whole of it, but think of how it looks). And if a demon can do it, then surely the Metatron will be able to do it, too. I mean, he's the most powerful being in existence (outside of God, but she's conveniently missing this season..)
But he has to be sure. Can't have yet another angel abdicating, now can we? Something like that might cause the rest of the Heavenly Host to start questioning what's going on.
How do we make sure the angel can be pressured to comply? We start with something small. A coffee.
Like I mentioned above, the Metatron has been looking into Aziraphale. And if this post by @santacoppelia is any indication, he's been reviewing him carefully to learn how best to manipulate him. He knows how he talks, how much he enjoys ingesting things, he knows about The Arrangement (maybe not, but at least that they are working together, not against one another). But with all that research, he doesn't know that Aziraphale isn't a coffee drinker? Nah.
The cup of coffee was a test.
The whole point of the coffee was to see if he could easily manipulate Aziraphale into something he wouldn't normally do, to test whether he has enough backbone to stand up for himself and his preferences over something small. Something inconsequential. Because if he can get him to do this, then it's going to be so much easier to get him to bend when The Voice of God tells him what Her wishes are, right?
It was one thing to stop Armageddon, The First by questioning whether it was the Ineffable Plan. But when God's spokesperson is telling Aziraphale that this is God's command, there's no way he's going to go against that when he can't even reject a coffee, right?
Right?
Edit to add: Just wanted to say that the Metatron is wrong. Aziraphale will absolutely not just cave to the Metatron. I'm just exploring the Metatron's thought process here. We all know Aziraphale is going to be a BAMF in Heaven.

Hello! Welcome to the cookie run x reader community! I'm someone who is often sending requests in the ask box who loves seeing people's writing because what they create is so amazing! I stumbled upon your blog and wondered what your writing style and stuff was like and I wanted to give you a warm welcome! I see you're a big fan of cocoa cookie so....may I request a shy reader x yandere cocoa story? I love yandere and I love the shy reader trope! I think the yandere is interesting and the shy reader is so adorable! Like the type who wears oversized turtle necks and just hides in em or are just quiet and oooh so cute!
Again! Welcome to the community and I hope you enjoy receiving requests and writing them! Just remember to take care of yourself!
꒰ 🥛 ꒱ؘ ࿐ ࿔*:・゚ YANDERE! COCO COOKIE X SHY! Y/N
( TYSM Anon!! I’m very happy to be giving you some headcanons for this!! I bet it’s really fun )
;; TW: In general yandere behavior, possible gore and blood, and coco just being possessive ;;
{ Coco Cookie is the Innocent, Possessive, and stalker yandere! }
Introductions!~ ;;
— You and Coco met in her favorite cafe to get Coco!
— You were a new employee at the cafe, so you didn’t really know who coco was..
— so you know how embarrassing it is for when Coco came and said
“The usual, please!”
“.. Uhm.. w-what?.. i-I-I’m sorry?..”
— Coco was so shocked that you didn’t know her favorite way to make coco, but she understood completely!
— Afterwards, when she got her coco, she strangely enough.. couldn’t get you out of her mind.
— she thought it was so cute that you were so shy and sweet!~
— (and she thought you made the best coco)
— So, it’s safe to say she was going to come back very soon.
— So, she did! Coco came back every morning, specifically looking for you, so she could say Hi!
— You didn’t recognize her at first.. but you quickly did after she said ‘The usual, Please!~’
— I would think she would give you more tips then she would do with anybody else 😭
“Hey, c-coco.. y-you didn’t n-..need to give me- T-Twenty (20) dollars!..”
“oh no, Sweetie, its fine!~”
— Coco, After a while, realized she was in love with you! You were so nice to her! And she loved how you stumbled on your words..
— But, this ‘love’ quickly turned into an obsession.. she got your social media, she got your number— and it was safe to say she texted you every time you had to walk home alone.
— She also stalked you for a while at the Cafe, seeing if there were any rude costumers that needed to be..
taken care of.
— Overall, she would be so sweet and kind and generous to you, but when she’s mad at others.. she’s sour and bitter.
——————
HEAD-CANONS!~ ;;
— Coco Cookie gives you really sweet nicknames— like ‘Sweetie’, ‘My Marshmallow’, and ‘My sunshine’!
— Once she called you that, you got so flushed and flustered.. you literally dropped her order for coco!
— As you are shy, she thinks you’re a fragile antique, the last of your kind, and just a small bunny in worth of protection!
— Of course you wear her sweaters, and her scarf! You’re so cozy in them.. but when Coco found out, she was so excited!
“Marshmallow, I didn’t know you wore my clothes?!~ You look so cute! Omg!”
“I-I.. P-PLEASE F-FORGIVE ME!..”
— I would think Coco likes giving cuddles instead of receiving them, so she likes putting you on her lap and her just wrapping her arms around your waist and resting her chin on your shoulder
— Of course you guys cuddle up together and watch cheesy Christmas movies..
— Coco once saw you talk to Choco Mint Cookie, and she was sort of.. jealous?
— I mean, two of her crushes talking to each-other is kinda cool!.. to her..
— Coco is, overall, very protective of you, so if somebody is getting too touchy with you— she’ll wrap her arms around your shoulders
— somebody getting too talky or flirting with you? She’ll drag you away
— Coco doesn’t really like killing other cookies, she really doesn’t! It’s so messy!..
but if it means her marshmallow will stay with her forever?..
So be it.
— Coco genuinely believes there’s nothing wrong with killing other people that get in her way.. so no mercy!~
— Coco is a really good actor, and she’s a master manipulator— so when you find one of her victims and ask if she’s done it..
— of course she’s gonna lie! And how can you not say no to that face?..

Gaslighting... we often hear the terms as it relates to our romantic relationship, but it's also very common in families or family households. Both of your parents may be gaslighters or perhaps it's just your mother or father, or maybe even a brother or sister. Gaslighting is a common way narcissists or narcissistic parents or family members try to control us. Have you ever said my parents are so controlling or try to control me or maybe you have a codependent or enmeshed relationship with your mother or father - this could be a form of gaslighting by your parents - mother or father. So if you find yourself thinking your parents are a narcissist or controlling or asking yourself are my parents gaslighting me? It may be them trying to gaslight you.
