DC needs to pick one person to write Jason for like 5-10 uninterrupted years. Let someone actually make a character with him. Y’know. A consistent personality, consistent traits, an actual moral framework to work with. It’s gonna be divisive and people are gonna piss their pants if he isn’t a tragic softboy victim who does no wrong but whatever, grow up. Commit to something. He’s just not anything and never has been post-resurrection, despite having nothing but interesting potential. Let someone do something with him, and make it stick.

eyes and sight in series five
eyes are a recurring symbol in series five of Doctor Who. nearly every episode has some sort of reference to sight and seeing; tying into the broader theme of appearance and reality in the Moffat era. most commonly, the motif is tied to the obstruction of sight. throughout the series, characters are blinded or otherwise prevented from seeing what’s right in front of them, this is particularly present in Amy.
it seems that, out of everyone, her sight is focused on the most; a perception filter keeps her from seeing the alien that has invaded her home, an angel climbs into her eye and she’s forced to navigate a forest while blinded, her eyes freeze shut in an early version of Amy’s Choice.
the connection between Amy and a lack of sight is compounded by the themes of appearance versus reality, considering that her character stands at the heart of the conflict. instances where she’s forced into blindness mirroring the forceful denial of her reality that she experienced as a child - what she sees in her youth is Not Real, and as an adult, she lacks sight all together.

i don’t think the coffee theory is correct. (the theory being that metatron tampered with the coffee in some way that explains aziraphale’s decision. i can’t find where it originated, but that seems to be the gist.)
narratively, this is MEANT to be a mistake aziraphale is making. it’s meant to be an awful moment of miscommunication that displays both of their flaws. it’s meant to show how difficult it is to leave, say, an abusive family or a cult—how the person you were running from can show you a hint of the kindness you were starved for all this time, the approval you were always denied, and you think “maybe this time will be different, maybe they understand now, maybe if i give them one more chance it will be better.”
aziraphale & crowley eventually overcoming this is how they will grow both individually and as a pair.
if ALL the blame for this choice falls on metatron, it also robs aziraphale of the opportunity to have made a mistake that he can then grow from. and maybe more importantly, the chance to reckon with the abuse and trauma he’s suffered.
don’t get me wrong, metatron IS manipulating aziraphale and surely knew that this would break him and crowley apart. i just don’t think he needed poison or a miracle to do it.
