apollo. beverly. buddy. omg... please feel free to explain what the easily solvable issue is cuz omg...... Big Deal it seems
OK THIS IS KIND OF EMBARRASSING BUT BEVERLY (15, boy scout, uhhh my blorbo my little meow meow) HAS THIS BOYFRIEND IN THE CAMPAIGN. HIS NAME IS ERLIN, HE IS ALSO A BOYSCOUT (the in universe alt is Green Teen lmao), HES GINGER, I CARE ABOUT HIM VERY MUCH. I care about this relationship so deeply. I love them I literally cannot NOT gush about Bev and Erlin theyre adorable theyre amazing i adore them.
Im not gonna cover everything, but for context when Bev & Erlin got together (~ep 20?) there was a big war going on in their home city. technically the war is still happening but it has since moved. Beverly's house gets bombed etc etc, they have to flee to escape the city. They split up, with Erlin and his family fleeing, Bev's dad and the other Green Teens are sent to a different dimension (THROUGH A KISS FROM BEV AND ERLIN MIGHT I ADD), and Beverly and the rest of the party go somewhere else that isnt important rn.
Since that episode, Beverly has been collecting things for him. A book about his interests, a poster, some drugs?? i think??? Just little trinkets he thinks Erlin would like for when he next sees him. The DM and player of Beverly have said that the relationship was never planned, it just sort of happened, but after that theyve discussed a long standing mutual crush and other stuff that makes me weep.
Bit of a time skip to around episode 50? By this point, theyve had a few more adventures, and have ventured into this other dimension to try to find Beverly's dad and their friends. They do, and after a lot of hardship and other stuff, they have a big celebration. Beverly, in his defense, is a LITTLE drunk, and meets this autumn looking boy. To be perfectly honest they hit it off. At the end of the bit, the boy tries to kiss him, and Beverly very maturely says something to the effect of, "Im sorry. theres someone else." and leaves. at this point im sweating fucking bullets. I am way too invested in Beverly and Erlin to be normal. But im thinking, oh, sweet, a breath of fresh air. And then he doubles back and kisses him.
And there are so many factors to this. I am fully aware that Beverly is 15. I am fully aware it is both his and Erlin's FIRST relationship. I am fully aware that they will probably be fine after a couple of conversations. but the BETRAYAL 😭 I was heartbroken im not even gonna lie LMAO. I paused the episode and I called Raya to rant about this stulid bullshit 💀. Am i angry at Beverly the character? No. Do i think Erlin's gonna be fucking DISTRAUGHT? Yes.
For me, if it was in the moment and then a, 'fuck, sorry, i shouldnt have-" Thatd be more acceptable. but its the fact that he clearly chose not too and then changed his mind. 😭😭😭
And yes. Beverly has gone through a lot in the past couple of days. His dad and friends aged 25 years in a month. His Dad keeps telling him, after being away from him for several months, that if they are to let anyone die, to let it be him. Another one of his father figures is going through a MASSIVE identity crisis. A war is happening. Beings that are as close to gods without being gods are putting expectations and pressure on his shoulders. I fully understand that this is a situation that is not as bad as i have presented it and that it is fairly easily fixed. but I was so fucking sad? We havent seen Erlin in like, 30 episodes. Hes literally a refugee rn. hes going to be so sad. He is going to be sooooo sad. 😭😭😭
TLDR: I have an unhealthily strong obsession with DND boyscout bfs, and one of them cheated, and I am so unreasonably sad.

Ok I’m going insane so here are some random Good Omens thoughts that are plaguing my brain and keeping me up at night.
-
How many romcoms do you think Crowley has watched for him to know that getting humans wet and looking into each other’s eyes makes vavoom???
-
Actually I need Crowley and Aziraphale to have a little movie night to watch Pride & Prejudice (2005). It’s Jane Austen, there’s balls and there’s wet humans looking into each other’s eyes professing their love.
-
Let’s talk about the ball a little bit, actually. I can’t stop thinking about that moment. It’s probably my favourite in the entire series, actually, Aziraphale grabbing Crowley with a little giggle and dragging him to dance. To Aziraphale balls and dancing are love, that’s his whole idea of human romance. That’s how people fall in love, that’s how people realize their love. And as soon as Crowley walks in, all Aziraphale wants to do is dance with him. He’s so giddy and excited and embarrassing. He takes a beat before asking. And then he grabs his hand without receiving a proper answer and drags Crowley to dance. Even though Crowley has something to tell him, something he could have said standing. It doesn’t matter. Aziraphale wanted to dance with Crowley, that’s all that mattered to him. Because maybe then they’ll know, and they’ll realize, and they’ll feel and let themselves feel, because when you dance it’s only your partner and you, nothing else even exists. No heaven, no hell, no God, just us. Aziraphale just wanted to experience simple human love and romance with Crowley.
-
And in a similar note. “We don’t dance”. But we could. And we will. And we do.
-
“Nothing lasts forever” is possibly the most heartbreaking thing Aziraphale could have said to Crowley. Because that’s exactly what Crowley was asking for and offering. He was asking for eternity, he was asking for forever. So, to Crowley, Aziraphale didn’t just say no to staying, to rejecting heaven, to being with him, he said it could not happen at all, because nothing, not even what they have, the life they’ve carved up for themselves, can be timeless, he makes it sound entirely impossible. Aziraphale may have meant something else, but when you offer eternity to someone, and they say nothing lasts forever, there’s really only one way to take it.
-
Crowley has fallen twice, and the second one is being far more more painful than the first.
-
Knowing Crowley made the stars and made them with such love and pride makes the idea of them running off to Alpha Centauri so much more special. That’s a place he built. That’s something he made. With love. And he wants to be there with the Aziraphale, he wants to share it with the angel he loves. He wants to go back to the place where he felt so much joy with the one being that makes him feel that way again. I want us to share this beautiful thing I made, this beautiful thing that I love, just as I love you.
-
Anyways imagine Crowley finding and reading Aziraphale’s diary and take a few shots of holy water with me.
-
I can’t stop thinking about Crowley saying “he’s just some angel I know” because imagine hearing that with no context. At that point Nina doesn’t know Aziraphale is a literal angel, so to her this is just a person very casually referring to someone else as “just an angel I know” and I really can’t think of any sweeter sentiment.
-
Fell first, fell harder, we know. Confessed first, confessed second, oh boy do we know. But the realizations. They’re killing me. Aziraphale has always known it’s love, he just didn’t really know what to do with it. But not Crowley, Crowley genuinely had no idea what it was, there was something there but he never fully understood it, he never even questioned it. Like yeah there’s Aziraphale and I like him and we hang out and we’re always relying on each other and we trust each other and we accompany each other in our loneliness and that’s just what it is, it happened so naturally to him he never stopped to think about what it was or what it meant. It was just. Aziraphale and him. That’s it. And he’s so comfortable in it, so content in it, that there’s no hesitation, as soon as he realizes what it is, as soon as he can name it, he goes for it. Because to him it would entail no change. It would just be them. Being them. Forever. Which is what he already wanted, and what he already thought he would get.
-
Because Aziaraphale calls him when he’s bored, when he’s done something clever and when something’s wrong. Because they’ve been talking for millions of years. Because he says something clever and Aziraphale says something unintentionally funny. That’s just how things are. And it’s great.
-
But when did it start for Aziraphale, anyways? Surely 1941 is a big one. That’s when it really hit him. But he clearly had a bit of a thing for Crowley since they first met, and we’ve seen him care for him and worry about him and be happy to see him throughout history. So maybe 1941 was his big moment of oh god I love a demon, but for Aziraphale it’s something that’s been lingering in and around him literally since before the beginning.
-
And I just want to say. Crowley’s confession. Good god. He chokes up he hesitates he stutters. All because of how much he’s feeling. I can’t bear it.
-
I know we’re all thinking about God’s plan and how Aziraphale and Crowley come into it and what if this was the plan all along and what if they were made for each other but I hope that’s not it. I hope they are fucking up every plan. I hope no entity in all of existence could have seen it coming. I hope no one understands it. I don’t want them to be just a piece of the puzzle. I don’t want them to be exactly according to anyone else’s plan. Because they are on their side. Their relationship is the ultimate act of defiance. The fact that amidst all the chaos and all the plans and all the fates, they found each other and grew closer and understood each other and accompanied each other and ultimately fell in love with each other is what makes it so special. They are just two beings that happened to find each other, and in finding each other, they found something that meant more to them than hell or heaven or even God and God’s plans. This isn’t God’s story, it’s Crowley and Aziraphale’s. Love is an act of revolution. It is literally bigger than God.
-
Anyways no one’s ever going to love me like this I’m going to bed.

𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐈𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐄 𝐑𝐎𝐋𝐄 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘?
𝐓𝐇𝐄 "𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐍 𝐎𝐍𝐄" . back again young one? still not comfortable with your new title? yes, I can see you are one that prefers the simpler things in life but you do deserve the rank they have given you. oh little sparrow, have you just now realized you are an owl? soaring the skies with gleaming, outstretched talons. you lived your life blinded to your own abilities, but now the truth is out. you did not ask to be a hero, which pains my heart to the core. but alas, the people have given you something so true and bittersweet you cannot bear to refuse them. for they have given you their trust. they praise you, songs will be sung of you, ballads written, feasts in your honor. but "why me?" you quietly whisper to the stars. if you could speak their language you'd hear their simple reply, "because." you, out of the finest candidates were chosen to be a sacrificial lion in golden chains. your loved ones chanted your worth as it echoed from the steeples. but what was your say on the matter? I guess you had little to none, and unfortunately, neither do I. but destiny is not a burden, it is a gift, you feel weighted by the entire world, your shoulders ache from the hopes, fears, and dreams of the people who have chosen to follow you. but their adoration isn't blind my dear. you are strong, you are worthy of the armor, of the crown. when you look back you will realize that you, my young god, were truly the savior many called you. do not run from your purpose, seek it. and I do not mean the heroic of sorts, no, search for what makes you alive young hero, for here's a secret, you are just as much a hero to others as you are to yourself. if wouldn't make you a villian, to tell them no...
