hi i wrote a song for crowley in a warped sort of catholic hymn style
ELEIMON AEGOVOSKOS [Crowley's Hymn]
Kyrie eleison
Sinner, repenter, o lover of mine Take what you will, I lay at your shrine Hellfire, holy water alike Bring damnation, salvation, oh peace be mine Please be mine
Nightshade nightingale Challenger of God Sea that parted, hope that failed Loveless child of the Lord
Tempter so tempted, o starmaker’s smile Give what you will, an inch for a mile Your kindness, wrath, both so alike Bring violent seduction, so beautiful, vile O beautiful guileless guile
Haloed and hallowed, o hollowed outcry Pray to the ruins of your darling sky Now lovers and allies, or foes alike We are ruined, remade, or at least we try O at least we try 
Heaven and Hell, o my Fallen divine Equal in wrath, follow close behind Mercy, damnation, twin judgements alike On your knees, your judgement will not be so blind You have never been blind
Forgive me for being blind O forgive me for being blind
Dies irae
On your knees, your judgement Is not so blind You see as they see, you feel it in kind On your knees, your judgement  Is not so blind Your damnation has made you divine Your damnation has made you divine
Please forgive me And please be mine
Kyrie eleison
-Asmi
Notes: There are references to old poems and hymns here, including Kyrie eleison which in Greek means Lord have Mercy, roughly, and Dies irae, an old Latin poem about the Last Judgement or Judgement Day, when God decides who is saved and who is cast into eternal flames.
The line On your knees your judgement is not so blind refers to that one shot in Season 2 Episode 3, where rather than Aziraphale who stands and judges the poor bodysnatchers, Crowley sits next to them and understands. Because he is fallen, and on his knees, his judgement isn't as blind as Heaven's.
Hellfire, holy water alike bring salvation, damnation refers to a sentiment I believe Crowley expresses about how whether Hell ends the world or Heaven, it will be ended just the same.
Now lovers and allies, or foes alike refers to their arrangement, about how either they are allies and lovers, or at the very least foes who are very, very similar at heart.
Finally, the title, Eleimon Aegovoskos, is Greek for Merciful Goatherd. Yep, this is a reference to the Job storyline. Because of how Crowley saved the goats though Heaven and Hell said to destroy them, and also because of that one Biblical story about Abraham where he is ordered to sacrifice his son, but really there is a goat waiting to be sacrificed instead. Crowley spares even the goats from needless sacrifice. Hence Merciful Goatherd, similar to how God is a merciful shepherd (I believe, I'm not sure) because Crowley's damnation has made him divine. I'm not Christian and I don't know much about this, so I'm open to corrections :")

You remember Jane Austen? Yeah. I'm not gonna forget her in a hurry, am I? The brains behind the 1810 Clerkenwell Diamond Robbery. Brandy smuggler. Master spy. What a piece of work. She wrote books. Novels. Jane? Austen? Yes! Whoa, bit of a dark horse. Novels, eh? Yes. They were very good. Good Omens (2019-) || Pride and Prejudice (2005)

I LEARNED TO CROTCHET TO MAKE CROWLEY STUFF
I'm so normal about Crowley maggots I swear. But I wanted a black beanie (I always wear those) with yellow Crowley eyes on the front 🥺 and so I decided to. Well. Learn to crotchet so that I could make one.
ANYWAY so @singalongpoppet and @bat-plus-moth-equals-both took me under their yarny wings and taught me today AND LOOK GUYS THIS IS THE FIRST SHAPE I MADE. IT'S THE BASIC RECTANGLE BUT NATURALLY I FUCKED UP AND IT TAPERED COZ I MISSED A STITCH. THEN I REALISED IT LOOKS LIKE A MAGGOT. SO I ADDED EYES AND A MOUTH. but poorly so when you turn it over you see an eldritch mess of knot and thread that look vaguely like a face but totally normal from the front. Kind of like the good omens fandom pretending to be normal while burning on the inside.

I CANNOT get enough of drawings of itty bitty snek Crowley. I go absolutely rabid about them. I live for them, i breathe for them, fame and fortune and my eternal love & gratitude to all the artists who regularly bless me with sneckedy Snek demon sweetness.
