Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley:

 • They mainly speak gibberish but they can sometimes say and use english words. Both their gibberish and english sound very cute!

 • Tiny ineffable husbands/friends!

 • Is it dumb luck? Yin and yang? Or the Almighty simply working in mysterious ways? Whatever it was, when Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley work together, there's nothing they can't do! Size isn't even an issue!

 • They have their own best friend handshake! (It's really cute and it ends with them making a hand heart with each other's hand.)

 • A best friend theme song that fits them perfectly is this! (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_jEsOxkT0iw)

 • And the song that describes their relationship is this! (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BnTthKo4bLg)

 • Chibi Aziraphale thinks that Chibi Crowley is sooo cool! He also finds him to be really fun as well! The demon has taught him so many fun, new exciting human games such as "tag", "hide and seek" and one game that Chibi Crowley likes to call "playing tricks on the mortals". With that game, the angel didn't mind playing along, s-so as long as the pranks they pulled were harmless and no humans got hurt or injured by them. (Oh, and when playing tag or hide and seek, Chibi Aziraphale had to be really careful cause sometimes Chibi Crowley would get really excited when playing and would end up using his powers which caused a bit of havoc. The demon was oblivious to the destruction he was causing.) Chibi Aziraphale really appreciates Chibi Crowley's kindness! Sure, the demon tried coming off as if he's not, but Chibi Crowley was always doing nice things for his angel friend.

 • Chibi Crowley likes Chibi Aziraphale's good natured personality since having it made it easier for him to tease and tempt his friend. While he enjoyed teasing and tempting the angel, the demon would never take it too far and often did it in a playful way. Chibi Crowley is also really glad that Chibi Aziraphale has a sweet tooth because now he's got someone to share his gummy snakes with! He knows that the angel was book smart due to him spending most of his time in the bookshop with Aziraphale, but he also knew that the celestial being was innocently unaware of certain earthly things. The demon remembers once having to explain to Chibi Aziraphale what a toaster was.

 • Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley put on a reenactment play about Aziraphale's and Crowley's friendship across the ages! They even wear costumes of the outfits that their big counterparts wore through those centuries. This was their first play so they had to make it something exciting, something classic, something that the audience would never forget! The performance was being held in the backroom of Aziraphale's bookshop. A toy theatre stage was set up on the table and Aziraphale, Crowley, and Chibi Aziraphale's Harry the Stuffed Rabbit plush were the audience. The lights in the room dim and the spotlights shine on the curtain. The curtain is then opened, and the show starts! When saying their lines, Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley used a mix of both gibberish and english. From the audience, Aziraphale acts like a supportive parent at their child's first ever school play cheering, applauding, and shrieking in utter excitement almost every time his chibi says or does something in a scene. This makes Chibi Aziraphale smile and wave at his big friend each time on stage. "He's so cute and talented, isn't he?" Aziraphale would whisper to Crowley, referring to Chibi Aziraphale. Did Crowley notice little errors, faults, and flaws in the play? Yes but...he just couldn't dislike it. He still appreciated the effort and dedication the two chibis put into it. I mean, the performances themselves weren't too bad, the sets, costumes, music and props seemed alright, and the two tiny entities did look like they were having alot of fun with the whole thing despite the very small audience. His favorite parts had to be seeing his chibi be over the top playing as him. It made him smile and he couldn't help but chuckle at the smaller demon's exaggerated acting. The play itself was just Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley trying their best to be accurate, but they end up making it their own cute, comedic remake due to most scenes being over the top and exaggerated, them adding in little random things that didn't exactly happen and them having characters who were also in certain eras ( like Adam and Eve, Jesus, Jean-Claude, Shakespeare, The Nazis, the group of thieves and criminals, etc.) as either small toys, small stuffed animals, small cardboard cutouts, chibi sized hand puppets or inanimate objects who they also sometimes had to play as/pretend to be. Some might say that it's impossible for a play to work with only two people in it, but somehow the chibis do, and it's very adorable.

 • Imagine them doing a reenactment of the entire show.

 • Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley had been to alot of fun places in London before, but their all time favorite place where they had the most fun had to be the fun fair. (The toy shop was their second favorite, the zoo was third and the sweet shop was fourth.) An over-excited Chibi Crowley appears in the book shop one day to show Chibi Aziraphale a really cool poster that he found that showed an advertisement for a fair that was in London and suggests that the two of them go! The demon's never been to an actual fair before, but he's seen tons of commercials for them on TV at the flat and they looked like alot of fun. The angel's never been to a fair before either, but the pictures on the poster did make the place seem like alot of fun. To him, the place looked like one big playground! He agrees to go, and when the two arrive there Chibi Aziraphale is immediately fascinated by everything! Seeing the extremely interested look on his friend's face makes Chibi Crowley smile as he takes the heavenly being's hand and leads him to the attractions. The two have a wonderful time riding the carousel horses/other small mechanical rides and bouncing up and down on the inflatable bouncy castle. After that, they go looking around for more fun things to do. Chibi Crowley spots a haunted house horror ride and gets an excited twinkle in his eye! The demon absolutely adores spooky things! Big spooky fan, him! (He gets it from Crowley.) Chibi Aziraphale on the other hand...not so much. Being that he's easily frightened by stuff, (especially scary stuff) the dark, creepy look of the attraction gave him goose bumps, and at first he wasn't willing to get on. Well, that is until Chibi Crowley somehow tempts him into going on the ride with him. Now riding the ride, Chibi Crowley was pumped, Chibi Aziraphale the exact opposite. On the angel's side, ghosts and ghouls pop up at him in a jumpscare fashion, making a loud, frightening sound, followed by zombies and spiders doing the same on Chibi Crowley's side, then a collection of monsters and other spooky things all around. Each display causes Chibi Aziraphale to squeal in fear while Chibi Crowley squealed in delight. The demon even made frightening noises back at the monsters. After the last display, Chibi Aziraphale is still a little scared, but he's very glad that the ride was finally over. In the house of mirrors, the two chibis were fascinated by the mirrors abilities to make their reflections appear big and tall! When they leave, Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley both see a photo booth. Excited, they rush inside the booth and take several photos. In the first photo, Chibi Aziraphale and Chibi Crowley smile, a halo filter above the short angel's head and a devil horns filter above the short demon's head with the captions reading "Best Buds!" "BFF's!" and "Literal Angels!" In the second photo, they both flex their muscles, and the caption reads "So Strong!" In the third photo, Chibi Aziraphale laughs as Chibi Crowley hangs upside down, tongue hanging out and eyes rolling crazily. The caption reads "Silly!" In the fourth photo, this time Chibi Aziraphale makes a silly face and Chibi Crowley is the one who laughs. The caption reads "Also silly!" In the fifth and final photo, Chibi Aziraphale smiles and holds up the peace sign and Chibi Crowley grins playfully while holding up bunny ears above the angel's head. Emoji heart filters surround them with a caption that reads "Ineffable babies!" At sunset, at a game booth, a dart is thrown and pops a balloon. A boy with a blue baseball cap has made the throw and ends up winning a prize for his girlfriend. Chibi Aziraphale points to a giant white teddy bear angel and wants for Chibi Crowley to win it for him. The little demon gives the angel a small nod and a thumbs up. He then uses his powers to launch all the darts and pops every single balloon. A loud bell rings and a "winner" sign lights up as Chibi Aziraphale cheers for Chibi Crowley. They win the bear and Chibi Aziraphale gives his demon buddy a big thank you hug. Chibi Crowley tries to hide his smile but can't. At night, the two are taking a stroll. Chibi Crowley was pulling a little red toy wagon that the giant angel teddy that he had won for Chibi Aziraphale was sitting in. As he looks up at the carnival lights, Chibi Aziraphale moves his hand towards Chibi Crowley's hand, gently takes it and begins holding it. The move catches little Crowley off guard, but he quickly smiles when he sees the angel is at ease. Feeling playful, the demon swings his held hand back and forth a bit. The two were heading towards the ferris wheel as their final ride. A fireworks show is in full swing! The sky was filled with them! Chibi Aziraphale, Chibi Crowley, and the teddy bear were sitting together in one of the ferris wheel cars watching the show. Chibi Aziraphale watches the show in complete amazement! This was his first time ever seeing fireworks before. When the angel asks Chibi Crowley what those beautiful bright coloured lights that kept making loud noises in the sky were, the demon says to him that they're called fireworks. He tells Chibi Aziraphale that big Crowley had once told him that fireworks were these giant explosions in the sky, and the reason they exploded was because they contained this stuff that the humans put inside it called gunpowder. Chibi Aziraphale sighs blissfully at the sky. He loves the earth so much, the planet was filled with so many amazing things! He hopes that one day he and Chibi Crowley will get to see all the wonderful things this world had.

The Family You Choose- Part Two

Here is where my sorrow culminates.

When my husband walked away, divorced me and left me alone, he shattered our family. Divorce does that anyway. But not necessarily on an eternal scale. Interestingly enough, it takes more than mere earthly law to dissolve an eternal sealing. It takes, at the very least--grave sin and at the most--written permission from the prophet, to do that.

According to doctrine, I am still sealed to him, in our righteousness. Meaning, if we both obey all the criteria of the church, it is agreed upon that in the next life we will still be married, and have our righteous children in the celestial kingdom (Mormon heaven) with us.

But if either of us are sinners, which I most definitely am, the promises and covenants are void and broken.

This is the first way I lost my family, abrupt and spiritually savage.

The second way has taken time, a slow corrosion caused by the disintegration of my Mormon persona.

You see, if everyone around you defines family the same way, within the deeply cultural and dogmatic Mormon structure, when you walk away from the Mormon church the distance caused can be hard to breach.

As I’ve found my new self, untangled the bindings I no longer believed, it has revealed limitations in the love of my family members. I won’t put you through the emotional and tragic details but my parents and even some of my children can’t accept who I am now. They either ignore or criticize the person I am becoming. And all within the context of hope. This means that they think I’m going through a phase because of my divorce and will come to my senses eventually and come back into the fold.

I’m 99.7% sure that will not happen. (The reasons are the subject of another post)

And because that is not going to happen, my family’s rejection takes on many angles from blindness to despair.

Angle #1:

They have a blind spot for who I am because they think I’m still the person they perceive I’ve always been, just a little off track. So they choose not to see me because the sight of me now makes them uncomfortable and they close their eyes—stick their heads in the sand--hoping I will come back to the church soon so they don’t have to think too hard about my current state of sin.

The evidence of this ranges from my father staring at my new tattoos and then pointedly turning away, to my mother’s comment as she wrapped herself in a blanket I made for her for a church project when I was 17 years old, “It makes me feel close to you… well who you used to be.”

It hurts when your family doesn’t accept who you are. It’s even worse when they refuse to see the real you at all and wish for someone who doesn’t exist anymore, if she ever did.

Angle #2:

The far side of forced invisibility is hyper focused clarity. Meaning that my parents are fixating on my perceived sin and despairing over it. When my youngest daughter began the game of telephone, telling one family member that I was drinking alcohol--who told another family member, who told another—the results were that suddenly I’m an alcoholic. And my parents in their despair are suggesting I attend the Church’s addiction program to help me with that.

My tattoos are the defacement of a temple of God.

My rejection of marriage creates a situation where I will be unable to take care of myself in this life and lost forever in the next.

Good thing they don’t know about my sexcapades.

The pain of constant criticism is different than that of being ignored. At least you know where people stand. And never being good enough is a feeling I’m very familiar with. It is the eternal despair that is difficult. My parents feel like I am lost to them forever. As a parent, I understand that pain, and I do not wish it on my own. You see my sin severs my sealing to them. It is a chain reaction that uproots an eternal family tree.

With no roots, no ties, no transcendent ordinances that bind me to my family and God, no acceptance, my family--parent and brothers, my children, and my once mate—are completely lost to me. And because of their religiously dictated CONDITIONAL love, I FEEL lost and cast aside, and unacknowledged, and unaccepted, and very much unloved.

What do I do with this pain and loss?

Is it even possible make it on my own?

Who can I turn to now that I have lost all the family I have ever known?

How do I get my family back?

These questions plague my mind and stab at my heart.

They amplify the emptiness walking away from the church has brought roaring into my life.

I have found answers in the most delightful and poignant of DC movies, Shazam!

(SPOILER ALERT)

This is the story of Billy Batson, a 14-year-old foster child that has been bouncing around the system, going from home to home, while he searches for his real mother who he lost at a carnival when he was very young. Failing in his quest over and over again, Billy is placed in a group home where circumstances bring him into a bullying conflict centering around his disabled foster brother Freddy. Almost as a side note here, Billy is chosen and given superpowers by the Wizard Shazam and struggles to discover how to use his new powers as well as discover the power within himself. The movie is awesome, and the superhero angle wonderful. But I am most struck at the overarching message the movie has about family.

Billy doesn’t allow people to get close to him, always keeping his various foster families at arm’s length as he searches for his real mother. All the members of the group home, parents and children, try to bring him into their family of misfits, but he won’t allow them into his heart. He doesn’t think he needs anyone other than the mother and father he lost so long ago.

At one point he even says, “Families are for people who can’t take care of themselves.”

I question whether I can take care of myself every day.

The greatest tragedy of the movie is not in the deadly sins that are released on the earth, or in the villain being used by these sin monsters, or in the selfishness Billy sometimes engages in with his new powers…

… it is the final loss of the HOPE that has driven him for years in the search for his family.

When Billy confronts his mother, finally found after more than a decade with the help of his technologically talented foster brother, she reveals to him that she left him at the carnival on purpose and basically doesn’t want him in her life because of the complications a child bring—and that his father never cared about him in the first place.

I sat in the theatre, weeping with empathy for Billy because while my parents haven’t literally abandoned me they have been unwilling to accept me for who I am outside of the church and turned their faces/backs on me—wishing for a daughter that fits into the religious constrictive space that gives them comfort. The pain seemed the same.

And then Billy said something that turned on a light in my heart. As he stood in the hall of the run-down project apartments facing his mother’s rejection, he looked her in the eye and said, “I gotta go anyway, I have to get back to my real family.”

The answer to the question “Who can I turn to?” revealed itself in the faces of the people in my life RIGHT NOW who love me, believe me, believe in me—and most of all—accept me for who I am.

They even like that person.

They even love that person.

They love ME!

The me that I want to be and am trying to show to the world.

The power of Shazam is that it shows the world that family and friends can be found in the most unlikely of places and it is these people who become your REAL FAMILY!

Because a real family loves you for who you are authentically.

Towards the end of the movie, Billy realizes he can share his superhero power with his new, REAL family. He transfers a portion of that power to each of his foster siblings and the Marvel family is born! Then, working together, they defeat the villain and recapture the sins into the statues that held them bound.

This story is an allegory for the FAMILY YOU CHOOSE and the power that lies within that choice.

I know I can’t make it alone.

But I also know that I am CHOOSING to build my family in the people who ALSO CHOOSE me,

and we will love each other and watch each other’s backs,

sharing our individual power and talents with each other

in order to help us each be our true selves and live the best lives possible.

I don’t need a God bestowed proclamation about what family is supposed to be.

I need action; experiences with people who SHOW me they are my family by stepping up and supporting me and loving me in the thick of it, without judgement or restriction.

To those people in my life that I consider FAMILY,

and I believe you know who you are,

I say,

“ALL HANDS ON DECK!”

Thank you for being my family…

And like Billy, “I think maybe this time I’ll stay.

After all, I’m home.”
