I know a few people will take this the wrong way or will feel like they need to defend something, but I have to get this off my chest:
I don't like the second season of Good Omens.
I don't like the new characters, the recasts, and quite a few plot points. Maybe it's because I've read too much amazing fanfiction and have all these ideas about what could have been and who Crowley has been, or my own headcanons get in the way.
I've tried really hard to be unbiased, to have an open mind and heart, but I simply don't enjoy how Shelley Conn played Beelzebub. They're too soft, too smiley, too abashed. Due to the recast we also couldn't see Gabriel's and Beelzebub's interactions throughout time, we only got those modern time snippets at bars.
Consequently, now that we have a canon enemies-to-lovers scenario for Ineffable Bureaucracy, my main enjoyment I had writing them is snuffed out. Do I have ideas and dozens of pages filled with notes? Yes. Are any of them season two compliant? No. None of the dialogue I've written for Beelzebub fits how Shelley Conn played them.
I thought it had been a good idea to put writing on ice until season two was out so I could make everything fit, but I can't make it fit anymore.
I guess it is time for me to drop this pairing, and move into a different fandom, to feel inspired to write again.
It had been fun for four years, I love each and every little friendly interaction I had, every kudo, every comment, but, as Aziraphale said, nothing lasts forever.

LET ME COOK
Idk if I'm stupid for not realizing this the first time but it just dawned on me
METATRON DIDN'T THINK AZIRAPHALE WAS THE BEST POSITION FOR THE JOB
Something didn't sit well with me the first time I heard Metatron talk about Aziraphale being the best candidate for the job and it's because Metatron is describing the best qualities to be the supreme archangel but Aziraphale doesn't have any of those qualities! I guess you can make some points for leadership but he's certainly not honest. At least not in my opinion. It also didn't make any sense why they didn't just choose Micheal or Uriel or Saraqael. I mean when Gabriel was in charge it didn't look like he did that better of a job than that bunch would have done.
Then it hit me
"We don't want it to look like an institutional problem"
They didn't pick Aziraphale because he "made the most sense" they picked him because by letting Gabriel go off with Beelzebub they needed Aziraphale back so it's not an institutional problem!! Aziraphale coming back is just their way of being like "hey guys! no problems up here everything is fine Gabriel just went crazy and fell in love with a demon. Isn't that what Aziraphale did too? nonono he's right here can't you see dumbass". Heaven doesn't give a shit about Aziraphale's "qualifications" they just need to keep up appearances! which is why it didn't make any sense that they just let Gabriel go. Aziraphale is right there!
Everything makes sense now and I'm just as devastated

Obviously I love Shelley, but I am still the littlest bit sad we couldn't get any flashbacks to these jerks interacting in the past... (these are all of Anna's Beelzebub not an attempt at whitewashing btw)

Hey Neil, I don't know if this question has already been answered or not, but...Did Gabriel made the effort? I assume so since the camera never shows his front part when he's naked.
And if he made the effort: Why?
We will never know.

some people think writers are so eloquent and good with words, but the reality is that we can sit there with our fingers on the keyboard going, “what’s the word for non-sunlight lighting? Like, fake lighting?” and for ten minutes, all our brain will supply is “unofficial”, and we know that’s not the right word, but it’s the only word we can come up with…until finally it’s like our face got smashed into a brick wall and we remember the word we want is “artificial”.

I noticed a high percentage of Bureaucracy artists draw Beelzebub pulling on Gabriel's tie like a leash so I made this thing. Enjoy my art skills since I was at work and got paid to make this in ms paint.
