7. What is your fav underappreciated quote ?
aauughh this is hard but I think it's during the Globe scene when Crowley is talking about how he doesn't like Shakespeare's gloomy shows and Aziraphale goes "Shh, it's him he's coming! 😨😨"
ORRR (not really underappreciated) "Not you I know what you smell like"

Hello!! For the Good Omens asks: 6, 8, 11, 23? 💖
Thank you Mari 💙
(6) who is your favorite side character?
In the book and season 1 it would have to be Agnes Nutter herself, that crazy old bastard. 😏 But now that we have season 2, I would have to add Muriel. She's like the angelic version of Arthur Shappey from Cabin Pressure. 😁
(8) do you prefer season 1 or 2, and why?
So far, season 1. Because season 2 feels unfinished to me. There is so much "wrong" with it that I assume will make perfect sense once season 3 arrives. But without season 3 it just seems to hang in the air, somehow. Not to mention that I hate unresolved cliffhangers. 🤣
(11) what is (if you read) your favorite type of human au for good omens? (ex. coffee shop au, surgeons au, plant store au)
I have to admit I do not like AUs, at all. But if I had to choose a setting I would probably stick as close as possible to the original, like Soho bookseller/unsuccessful rockstar or something like that.
(23) what's a good omens headcanon that you considered canon?
That's difficult because I usually make a point to try and keep canon and headcanon in different compartments in my brain. But sometimes something indeed slips through: when I re-watched all of Good Omens recently with my brother (casual watcher) I was surprised that he was not really convinced by my comment that Crowley doesn't actually kill the plants. And there is indeed no evidence in text or on screen that he doesn't, it's just fanon. We have all just agreed that he doesn't (and he doesn't, really! 😅)

For the ask game! 1, 12, 17, 23!
1. How did you discover Good omens?
In 2019 my dad watched the show and I snubbed it, saying it was another heaven and hell thing and it was probably bad. Then I got Tumblr, then I started an Aziraphale ask blog, and then I had to watch it - I've been hooked ever since
12. Has you interaction with the good omens fandom been overall good or bad?
Overall good
17. Favourite husband-y moment between the Aziracrow?
When Crowley tells Aziraphale off about his French, just so husbandy
23. What's a good omens headcanon that you consider cannon?
When Crowley said "can I hear a wahoo?" Aziraphale got the urge to softly whispers "a wahoo"

for the gomens ask game!! 1, 11, 17, 23, 24!
Oh hey! Thanks for asking! All the questions are here.
1. When did you first watch/discover good omens, and how did you find out about it?
Well, I gotta say, I wasn't an og fan but I was around on Tumblr in 2019 when it first came out. I saw people going crazy about it, so I was aware of it and knew it was good but didn't sit my ass down and watch it until.... October of 2021? I think? I loved it but even though I got excited about the prospect of a second season and waited for it (watched the entirety of s2 the day it came out), I can't say I was obsessed before s2. But the second those damn credits rolled after the f15 I was hooked. And I'm guessing I'm not the only one.
11. What is (if you read) your favorite type of human au for good omens? (ex. Coffee shop au, surgeons au, plant store au)
I am a sucker for all human aus tbh. My favourite is Old Vines (surprising nobody) but if it's a story where I get to see them fall for each other all over again count me tf in. Most of my favourite fics are human aus so I've got A LOT to suggest if anyone's interested.
17. What is your favourite husband-y moment between aziracrow?
Like David once said, that's like asking me to choose a favourite child! It's not impossible but- Ummm if I must choose.... It would probably be them sharing a bottle of wine while waiting for the bus after Armage-not. There's something heartachingly intimate about that and I love it. And then they get on the bus and hold hands??? Are you kidding???? Top notch.
23. What's a good omens headcanon that you consider canon?
Is it a headcanon to say that SOMETHING happened after the magic show? I don't think it was a kiss or anything as forward as that. But- something.
24. What's a theory for season 3 that you NEED to be included?
Hmmmmm. I really have no theories for s3. I think all it does is set you up for disappointment. Do I have expectations? Some, sure, I hope to hell they'll have a happy ending and live happily ever after. And I believe Neil when he says he has a happy ending planned. But no theories, sorry.

Thank you for the ask!
14 - what's your favourite GO coded song?
I don't generally listen to music when writing, but I did just participate in the @gospexchange Song and Poetry Exchange, where my choice was Resistance by MUSE. It's got heavy vibes for either 1941 or the night before the trials, and I do think Crowley would approve of MUSE; if there is a successor to the dramatic rock operatics of Freddy Mercury, it's them.

11. what is (if you read) your favorite type of human au for good omens? (ex. coffee shop au, surgeons au, plant store au)
I don't know if I have a fave Human AU trope? Anything where there's a plausible reason they are being kept apart so there can be some good mutual yearning, and anything that feels like them even though they are human. I do have a soft spot for trans (in any direction) versions of either of them, because a) more trans stories more better and b) it's so thematically fitting for them, as their canon versions have chosen who and what they are, against their assigned roles, that feels aligned with how I see my trans beloveds' self-creation. 14. what is your favorite good omens-coded song?
GO has made me a Hozier girlie, and From Eden is so good. But also, the song I submitted for my GOSP prompt is Ghost by the Indigo Girls, which everyone should listen to and tell me it's not Aziraphale sitting in heaven crying over Crowley. "And you kiss me like a lover, and you sting me like a viper." "Signals cross and love gets lost and time passed makes it plain - Of all my demon spirits I need you the most. I'm in love with your ghost." COME ON EMILY SALIERS HOW DID YOU KNOW???
youtube
17. what is your favorite husband-y moment between aziracrow?
Season 1 it's the entire scene with Anathema and the Bentley. Season 2 it's "Can I watch?" and then Crowley just... following Aziraphale around while he does his errands.

1, 6, and 17 (⁠^⁠^⁠)
#1 When did you first watch / discover Good Omens?
I read the book back in high school, so circa 2005. I LOVED it. It remains the only book that makes me literally laugh out loud chapter after chapter. When I heard the show was happening, I was really excited. I watched it when it came out in 2019 and was kinda disappointed, because I felt like the pacing was off. I spent 2 years getting slowly fed ineffable husbands screenshots on pinterest, and decided I should watch it again. Once I escaped from my prison of heterosexuality, and realized it was a romance, I realized all the weird pacing pauses were for YEARNING and I've been an obsessed GO fan ever since.
#6 Who is your favorite side character?
There are so many amazing side characters, but I think I have to go with Madame Tracy. I always found her dynamic with Shadwell hilarious. And I love the whole concept of an elderly sex worker, and her being a key player in averting the apocalypse.
#17 What is your favorite husband-y moment between Az & Crow?
I think my favorite moment is in S2, when they are trying to figure out how to hide Gabriel, they're both going in different directions, and then one of them suggests the half miracle thing, and the other one goes, oh, yes, that could work! They spend the whole of season 2 totally not on the same page, but for this one moment, they made contact, and they worked together, side by side. It was a total disaster, of course, but I love that we got to see them at their best and most aligned.

gomens ask game!! 1, 6, 12, 17, 24!
hello!! thank you for sending so many!! super excited to answer these 💖
putting the answers under the cut so they don’t clog up anyone’s feeds lol
1. When did you first watch/discover Good Omens, and how did you find out about it?
a few years ago, my partner and I had just recently finished OFMD S1 and were looking for something to fill the void. We were scrolling on Prime one day and GO was on the homepage. They mentioned they heard about it and they thought it was also supposed to be ~gay~. we weren’t doing anything, so we turned it on and basically binged it in one go. I was hooked the moment those two were interacting on the wall. 🥰
6. Who is your favorite side character?
Muriel! I can’t wait to see the shenanigans they get up to in S3. Hoping they get a really cute bookseller outfit (c’mon sweater vest!!) 🤞🏼
12. Has your interaction with the good omens fandom been overall good or bad?
Really wonderful, actually! I started doing digital art for the first time in February and I was so surprised by how sweet everyone has been with each piece I’ve posted! Good Omens is what inspired me to get back into art and the fandom is a huge part of that inspo! One of my favorite things about this community is all the incredible arts/fics that are out there! Everyone is so so talented!!
17. What is your favorite husband-y moment between aziracrow?
Hmm.. there’s soooooooo many to pick from, but I think my fav “married” moments are a tie between “Sherry for me, a large one” with that chest rub and Crowley coming to the rescue from scary Mr. Brown and “Why don’t you wait inside, you like waiting inside.” They both just scream “I know you, I see you.” 🥹
24. What’s a theory for season 3 that you NEED to be included?
I need 1941 pt 3 like I need air to breathe

Hi,
2,6,10,11,14,19 for the ask game!
Hello, thank you for the ask! 😊💙
(2) do you have any merch?
Yesss, I do. 😁 Apart from the 2006 paperback, the 2019 kindle edition, and the illustrated version of the original novel, the audio book, the full cast production audiobook, the 2015 BBC 4 Radio dramatisation, also the kindle versions of the script book and the tv companion, and the first season on bluray, I have Aziraphale's mug and some pins I found on Amazon for my bag and my jacket. Though I would really like the official pins from discworld.com, and I would also love to have a poster of the show for my new flat, but I haven't found a good one yet.

(6) who is your favorite side character?
In the book and season 1 it would have to be Agnes Nutter herself, that crazy old bastard. 😏 But now that we have season 2, I would have to add Muriel. She's like the angelic version of Arthur Shappey from Cabin Pressure. 😁
(10) have you ever imagined or created a crossover with another fandom for good omens? which one, and what was it about?
No, I'm not a big fan of crossovers. I feel they only really work if it is already a shared universe.
(11) what is (if you read) your favorite type of human au for good omens? (ex. coffee shop au, surgeons au, plant store au)
I have to admit I do not like AUs, at all. But if I had to choose a setting I would probably stick as close as possible to the original, like Soho bookseller/unsuccessful rockstar or something like that.
(14) what is your favorite good omens-coded song?
If we put aside all Queen songs that are mentioned in the book or played in the show, as well as "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square", then "Love of my Life" by Queen is very appropriate for the Final Fifteen™️ (who knows, maybe we'll get it in season 3, but I personally think the moment's over). For season 1 I like "Heaven is a Place on Earth" by Belinda Carlisle, and also Hozier kinda hit it out of the park with "From Eden". I recently discovered "As The World Caves In" by Matt Maltese, which is totally Aziraphale & Crowley during the Apocalypse, and "Drink with a Friend" by Mustard Service, which has Azi & Crowley drinking in the back of the bookshop / going to the Ritz vibes.
(19) have you ever read the crowley therapy fic (the most-read fic in the fandom)?
No.

for the good omens ask game! 1, 4, 11, 23, 24!
Hi! Thanks for asking!
when did you first watch/discover good omens, and how did you find out about it?
Ok I found out about Good Omens from the advertising of season 1 in 2019. I remember seeing a commercial with the, “Get thee behind me, foul fiend… After you💕” interaction and instantly knew I wanted to watch it. Then I found out it’s a book and I’ve read it so many times since. 
what is (if you read) your favorite good omens longfic?
The therapy fic! So, so good. 
Link here if anyone hasn’t read it yet. 
what is (if you read) your favorite type of human au for good omens? (ex. coffee shop au, surgeons au, plant store au)
I haven’t read any human AUs unfortunately. I do think a Farmer’s Market AU where Aziraphale is a baker across from plant stand Crowley would be adorable tho 💕
what's a good omens headcanon that you considered canon?
Ok took me a long time to come up with an answer to this because I genuinely couldn’t remember what’s fanon lol. I’d say then being aromantic asexual? And then Neil confirmed it so I consider it canon. I don’t think I’m answering this right but whatever lol 😂 
what's a theory for season 3 that you NEED to be included? 
I DONT KNOOOOOWWWWW lol! I kind of don’t want to say anything because I’d rather just see what Neil has in store. I love playing with theories and headcanons but ultimately I trust Neil and the story he and Terry made for us.

8, 13 and 15 of this bad boy
ask game for people in the good omens fandom! – @im-the-j-in-anthony-j-crowley on Tumblr
Wahoo for GO asks 😂
Here we go:
8. This was a tough one and I had to REALLY think about it, especially as I read the book, which is essentially S1 after all, in the mid-90s.
But I’ve decided S2 is my favourite, purely for the amount of mental exercise it’s given me. The theories I’ve been able to come up with (and mostly bin), and the way it’s leant itself to being picked apart so much. There were Easter eggs in S1 but there are ongoing/furthering plot Easter eggs in S2 that I adore.
13. Definitely Az’s “FUCK” when he gets Shadwelled up the portal to Heaven in S1. The first time he swears in 6,000 years and it’s just said with such a from-the-tips-of-his-toes feeling, both in the book and tv series.
15. I do!
Combination of all of David Arnold’s music for both seasons:
Playlist for the Epistolary fic on AO3:
Playlist for the WIP Free fic on AO3:
Ineffable songs that I might write oneshots about:
