I can't believe there are still people out there defending Aziraphale and not seeing how selfish he is and how cruel he's intentionally being to Crowley, because he never really loved him. Aziraphale only used Crowley when he needed something.
Just because you love Aziraphale you can't keep denying the hard evidence in front of your very eyes!
If you ever needed a reminder of said evidence, here it is, just look at him!
Tumblr media
Just learn to read the subtext, ok? Here the subtext clearly says: oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, the Metatron is talking to me! I'm so thrilled!
Tumblr media
And here: I'm so excited I might jump up and do the time warp! I can't believe this is happening! After thousands of years my hard work as an angel is finally being recognized! Look at my face, this is the best moment of my life!
Tumblr media
The subtext to this one is easy: would you mind terribly if I kissed you, Metatron? I've just been offered everything else I'd always wanted in my life, now I want you Metie!
In contrast, now look at these pictures and their subtexts
Tumblr media
Oh, how annoying having you around, Crowley.
Tumblr media
But did you have to come to the church tonight?
Tumblr media
You are the most undeserving being in the universe and I despise you.
Tumblr media
I would smite you alright. (Oooops, that might be read in two different ways. But you know which one I mean, of course).
Tumblr media
Oh, you again? Bugger.
So you see. Aziraphale clearly is the villain in Good Omens, if you don't trust this evidence, what can you trust?

I understand that. Michael Sheen is attractive but the more I think about Aziraphale, the more he pisses me off because the worst thing he could have said was turning Crowley back into an angel. Crowley hates heaven and doesn’t wanna be an angel. Why does Aziraphale refuse to admit that both heaven and hell suck and why does he say that Crowley is a bad guy when he isn’t one?
Don’t worry, I didn’t think you were calling Michael Sheen unattractive :))
Ok, a lot to unpack here. But i love thinking about good omens so thank you for asking.
First of all, Aziraphale didn’t say Crowley is a bad guy. Crowley said that they asked him back to hell but he’s “not rejoining their team” and he said no. To that aziraphale replied “obviously you said no to hell, you’re the bad guys”. Not the most diplomatic way to say it, he should have said “they’re the bad guys”, but beneath the words is this: he thinks it’s logical crowley said no because he doesn’t think crowley is a right fit for hell. Because crowley is good.
Does he think crowley is right for heaven, then? Not as is — but perhaps as it could be. They could make it better, together. Crowley would be safe there: no longer hated and hunted by heaven or hell. Under aziraphale’s protection. The metatron made it very clear he knew what him and crowley had been up to for all those years, and there was a veiled threat in that, in my opinion.
Now aziraphale & heaven — it’s complicated. Aziraphale doesn’t like thinking about it. He likes living in blissful ignorance enjoying human delights such as books and theater. The last thing he wants to do is work. And over the past 6,000 years he has learned to see shades of grey but he’s also been unable to make real changes. And overall he considers heaven to be better than hell, still. There’s no real alternative.
His choice at the end of season 2, to me, makes a lot of sense. Let’s put it this way. Let’s say you’ve been working for a big charity for the longest time. There are flaws in the company: not everyone who deserves it, is getting help. The charity is being run really badly.
Then, they offer you a new position. You can run the charity. You can change it, but it’ll be hard and you’ll have to give up your current life. Your best friend says: we should just run off together and be happy together. Could you turn your back on the charity? Knowing you could’ve made a difference — or at least tried? That there are people who need help, that aren’t getting it, because you made a selfish choice?
Aziraphale and crowley both have their own flaws in their reasoning, their own motivations. I don’t think aziraphale is more wrong for choosing heaven than crowley is wrong for wanting to be cut off from everything.
The truth is this: the second coming is being put into motion. Aziraphale and crowley are humanity’s only hope.
Aziraphale thinks he can make a difference by influencing heaven. I don’t think he’s mean, or out of character, for that choice.
I do think he should tell crowley he loves him though.

I hate people that say “aziraphale chose heaven over Crowley”
ITS MORE COMPLICATED THAN THAT!
did we watch the same show? There was no good outcome in the situation he was in, that they both were in.

If you don't hate Loki for leaving Mobius behind
And you don't hate the Doctor for leaving Rose behind
And you don't hate Lucifer for leaving Chloe behind
And you don't hate Sherlock for leaving John behind
Etc etc etc
Then why the fuck would you hate Aziraphale for leaving Crowley behind? Hmmmm?
Oh but it's different...
really? how?

I don't think we talk enough about when Crowley says 'When Aziraphale does come back, I think we need a little us time' to Muriel. Like??? Is that not the most tender thing you've heard in your life?!! Talking to someone you've only just met about how you and your darling angel boyfriend are in desperate need of a date!! How you're practically foaming at the mouth for a glass of wine with your favourite person at the Ritz!! Like a long day of thwarting good and evil is just flirty foreplay for these two smitten morons

The Final 15: Aziraphale's decision matrix in a no-choice situation
I have been thinking and reading about what happened since season 2 came out, and I think I have finally been able to put it all down into a logical sequence. This meta is the result of both countless posts I have read on tumblr and my own thoughts.
But let us start from the beginning, which is essentially Metatron's offer:
Tumblr media
Notice how Aziraphale consistently declines the honour, as Metatron keeps pressing. When he says that Aziraphale is the perfect choice he also mentions that Aziraphale "is a leader, is honest and doesn't just tell people what they want to hear", which is of course a lie and they both know it. Initially, Aziraphale can't deny it because he can't just go "well, actually, I have been doing exactly that, stretching the truth in my reports and on a few notable occasions outright lying to my superiors and even God Herself". So he deflects to "where will I get my coffee?", preferring to highlight his attachment to Earth. In response to that Metatron makes his final move: he knows about Aziraphale's partnership with Crowley, and that means he knows about the lies.
This threat to Crowley gets Aziraphale to the following decision matrix:
Tumblr media
Telling Crowley about the threat is useless. Aziraphale knows he will suggest running away together, and that puts them both in danger. Similarly, running away alone / hiding Aziraphale will not be a good move either because Metatron will not hesitate to harm Crowley and use him as a bait for Aziraphale.
So this means that Aziraphale's best option is not telling Crowley about the threat and persuading him to come with Aziraphale, his second best being going alone. Both of these offer best safety guarantees for Crowley, and this is something Aziraphale would not compromise on.
So our angel launches into this entire speech about making a difference. These are the only arguments he can come up with on the fly regarding why he took the position (the position he does not want! At a place he does not want to go back to!). And he is terrified that Metatron will come back and he won't be able to finish this conversation, won't be able to persuade Crowley. Add to this the fact that Crowley is clearly trying to have an important conversation with him too. A conversation they would like to have in private, but which Aziraphale knows can be interrupted at any moment. That's why he tries to stop Crowley, that's why he is constantly glancing out of the window.
Aziraphale is angry and frustrated, but this is mostly anger at Metatron who put him into this position, at the unfairness of it all, at himself for not being able to get Crowley to agree. It is the despair that just when Crowley confesses his love, instead of being able to say "I love you" back, he has to swallow it down again. Aziraphale's "I forgive you" is "I forgive you for not trusting me to make the best choice for us both", "I forgive you for not agreeing to go with me, I understand why you declined". And this aligns neatly with the theory about the Nightingale song in the car being a message from Aziraphale: it is his way of saying "I love you, I chose you, I chose our side, and that’s why I had to go".
And you know what? Crowley is a clever noodle and he knows Aziraphale well, so he will figure it out, he will spot this out of character, under-duress-only style of decision-making and start untangling that mystery.
We all know how it ends, and I can't wait to see it!
UPD: to put the above in perspective, see this meta with graphs!

Ok. *rolls her sleeves* You want face value? *rubs her hands* I'll give you face value.
Crowley hates his plants.
He shouts at them, belittles them and k*lls them. He says horrible things to them and the fact that he k*lls the plants off screen is no reason for us to doubt that he does. Because we trust his words in that particular scene. His behaviour throughout both seasons, especially season 2 where the only thing he takes with him from his former flat are the plants, is absolutely irrelevant of course.
Tumblr media
Crowley thinks Aziraphale is stupid or that he is an idiot. If he says so in situations of stress, in situations where the context suggests he's desperate for the angel to see things his way the context is just irrelevant, because he says that Aziraphale is an idiot. If the rest of the series shows us that he trusts Aziraphale and his intelligence greatly, that's irrelevant because in a couple of scenes he said that Aziraphale is an idiot.
Tumblr media
If Crowley had gone to Alpha Centauri he WOULDN'T EVEN HAVE THOUGHT about Aziraphale. That's what he said, so it must be true.
Tumblr media
Crowley actually wanted Muriel to arrest him because he's a demon. That's what he said, so it's exactly what he meant. That the unfolding of the story suggests that was a trick to get to heaven is irrelevant.
Tumblr media
In Rome Crowley was an aardvark. Obviously.
Tumblr media
Aziraphale is just an angel Crowley knows. Exactly like Sandalphon.
Tumblr media
Crowley clearly wanted to k*ll Job's children. The whole goats-turned-into-crows thingy? Irrelevant.
Tumblr media
I'm sure that if you take Aziraohale's words towards Crowley during the final fifteen at face value you'll agree with me that everything else in the show is to be taken at face value.
I invite everyone to come up with more examples.

Around these parts of town we are NOT angry with Aziraphale.
Unless we're in our feelings for Crowley in which case, screw the angel (with all meanings of the word)
But that is but a temporary state of mind and shall pass, in general terms we are kind and loving to the angel and know he is as much a victim as Crowley is.

I just know Crowley is going to be SO FINE in Good Omens season 3. David Tennant is hot, we all know this, but Crowley is gonna be AHHHH. Either he’s entered his reputation era (immediately hot) or he’s a wreck (immediately hot). I love every era of Crowley but I know this new era is gonna be SO GOOOD

“Love of my life” by queen is literally Crowley’s pov after aziraphele left him, so now I’m going to cry in a corner

The funny thing is that if I had to, if I had to, gun to my head, HAD TO choose, my favourite would be Crowley.
But it's Aziraphale who is under open, aggressive, and mean-spirited attack from parts of the fandom. Which is, I think, why our rebuttals are usually equally as vocal.
But we need to talk more about how the very same people often corrode the character of our beloved, amazing Crowley into a pale shadow of himself, some helpless whiny victim who feels put upon by Hell and Aziraphale and whose actions are informed by nothing but trauma. I wouldn't trust that Crowley with anything sharp, he might accidentally cut himself.
But it feels nice to imagine the real, canon Crowley kicking these peoples asses; both for talking shit about his angel and then simply because they seem to think he couldn't or wouldn't.

Good Omens Song of the Day
Because I believe in Aziraphale.
"Now I will move these rocks For you my love I will tear them up out of the Earth And I will bend my spine 'Til it's quitting time 'Cause I know what your love is worth"
Tumblr media
Lyrics
Well this is one place where Your gods can't dwell It's like walking in To the mouth of hell Sweating our dignities out on the subway At the beginning of another long, long day
As for my mortal remains I couldn't care 'Cause when the day is done She'll be waiting here That's when I love the accommodations In a urine smelling transit station
I'll move these rocks For you my love I will tear them up out of the Earth And I will bend my spine 'Til it's quitting time 'Cause I know what your time is worth
And I'll give my days to the Neanderthals With the classic rock And the wrecking ball I'll go swimming in the wet concrete And I'll cast my pearls at the unpaved streets
I don't mind the mental atrophy 'Cause when the lids come down, you're all I see You're like a lovely hallucination You get me through my current occupation
I'll move these rocks For you my love I will tear them up out of the Earth And I will bend my spine 'Til it's quitting time 'Cause I know what your time is worth
See I'm towering Above mortal men I'll emerge from the darkness And there you stand You're the Queen of all the surface streets I'm a wiener boy, that you're here to meet
I don't need the money I couldn't care 'Cause everything I want Is standing right here I would live on the street In a cardboard shack Just the worship the feet And the curve of your back You'll be my only preoccupation On a permanent vacation
Now I will move these rocks For you my love I will tear them up out of the Earth And I will bend my spine 'Til it's quitting time 'Cause I know what your love is worth
What your love is worth What your love is worth
