This contains Good Omens Season 2 Spoilers
It’s been a week since Good Omens S2 aired. I’m still crying. It’s been nestled in my brain. It HURTS. And today I finally figured out why it’s hurting me and why I’m clinging to the ‘theory’ I’ve developed as a coping mechanism.
First things first: I trust Neil Gaiman implicitly. He is an absolute MASTER storyteller and I know he’ll see us through to the most beautiful ending our demon, angel and the world deserve. Good Omens is the only show/story I have no worries about that I won’t love every second of it.
Anyway. My hurting & crying is Aziraphale’s reaction to Crowley’s kiss. There was no joy, no reciprocity, no softening. He doesn’t lovingly return the kiss like I want. He stands there, at best just a rigid pole, at worst he appears to be fighting it.
And that struck a personal chord. But from Crowley’s POV, and in a long-standing relationship. I live with a rigid pole that I’ve tied my life to. So I’ve just completely shoehorned my obvious trauma in there and taken it on myself. And that hurts and it’s raw and it’s kind of anguish-inducing at times.
So of course, I did what any person with trauma does and developed a coping mechanism: A Theory.
It’s not a new one, I’m not clever. Anyway, here it is:
Aziraphale is quite obviously flustered as when telling Crowley his ‘great news’, with his hands flying everywhere and eyes constantly darting outside. Crowley obviously picks up on this, after all, he told him in episode one that he knows what’s up from his tone of voice. I don’t think this was his “I’m going to pop” tone.
When Crowley kisses him, the miracle sound is heard. He also very subtly nods his head during the kiss and there appears to be an ‘aura’ as well.
I think Crowley stops time (making me ask again, just who WAS he before he fell sauntered vaguely downwards to be that powerful) and they manage to speak out of the Metatron’s view & hearing. (Perhaps even Muriel is involved?)
Whilst out of time, they then swap appearances, just like at the end of S1. …After all, Neil says S2 is a bridge between S1 & 3…
Then they come back into time, (?Aziraphale’s hand relaxes on Crowley’s back?) and we finish with them being on opposite sides to their usual ones, sudden mention of a nightingale after being told there wouldn’t be one and uncharacteristic Bentley music. Oh, and I will never forget that creepy smirk in the lift. Eek.
I’ve got other thoughts about half the street not being normal humans, but this is about my trauma response so I’m going to leave it at this.
Mr Gaiman, you’re a genius. You broke my heart in a personal way due to personal trauma but I love this show, this story, this universe that you and Sir Terry created and the entire huge team has brought to life on the screen, and obviously I adore how Michael Sheen & David Tennant have inhabited these characters and brought them to life.
Thank you 🖤
(Edited the morning after I wrote this for a little more clarity and when the rigid pole was no longer near me…which is not a euphemism…sadly)

I’m thinking about Mahito’s great great uncle maintaining and preserving a peaceful and beautiful thing in a way that to an outside observer looks tedious and unimportant, hoping to pass the duty off to a successor but ultimately he cannot find one and dies with it.
I’m thinking about the specificity of the blocks being made and handled with care, not with malice or ill intent.
I’m thinking about Hayao Miyazaki, a bastion of beautiful 2d hand drawn animation who refuses to retire.
I’m thinking about a world where animation is so rarely made with love over profit and efficiency.
I’m thinking about how, though the old man didn’t see it, the next generation still hangs onto a piece of that beautiful, tedious thing and takes it with them because it feels important.
I’m thinking about Mahito being told he should forget, but no. He shouldn’t.

Just had the most heartfelt Ineffable Husbands-related shower-sobbing moment when Ladyhawke’s Wild Things came up on my playlist.
Related it to them & the story but also tried to keep it positive for myself that there’s going to be a happy ending.
Lyrics (pasted rubbishly as I’m new to tumblr posting!)
Your heartache is not forever
It’s another road that we walk together
And our lives become much stronger
As the world goes on much longer
I wandered far to find the answers
What keeps me alive while taking chances
When you’re always almost lonely
You forget to take it slowly
There’s a fire
In the heartland
We dance around it like the wild things in the night
There’s a fire
In the heartland
We dance together like we’re wild things in the night
I met you in the midst of madness
You pulled me out then followed me in
To the night where we both wander
'Til our world goes on much longer
I’m hoping for a light in the dark
It’s getting closer, it’s who we are
When we’re almost always lonely
We forget to take it slowly
There’s a fire
In the heartland
We dance around it like the wild things in the night
There’s a fire
In the heartland
We dance together like we’re wild things in the night
Smoke in the distance
It pulls me inside it
We dance round the fire in time
There’s a fire
In the heartland
We dance around it like the wild things in the night
There’s a fire
In the heartland
We dance together like we’re wild things in the night
Wild things in the night
We dance together like we’re wild things in the night
