José Olivarez, “Let’s Get Married”

let’s get married on a Tuesday / with a six-piece from Harold’s as our witness. / let’s get married at noon & then again at three-thirty / when the school day lets out & a whole block / of dandelions flower our ceremony. let’s / get married under a full moon & then again / under a new moon, so every celestial being / can witness our vows. love, one wedding / isn’t enough for me. i want to propose / again & again. on a Wednesday because / you did the dishes. on a Thursday because / we woke up next to each other again. say yes. / say less. i’ll be on one knee asking you / to share in the delight of knowing each other. / let’s get married because Chicago. because / St. Louis is a city on a map. because your name / is my favorite word. let’s get married because / there are vows we can only make in the dark. / because we don’t need a witness to say i do. / let’s get married because it’s raining / & that’s supposed to be good luck. mi amor, / mi cielo, mi vida, let’s get married /in every language we can & can’t speak. / under every god. my god, the way you look / at me is a miracle i believe in. because / we get one life. one. say yes. then, say yes / again. let’s get married after we get married / because underneath every word i write / there is one word i carve into every desk. / one word i tag onto every building on every block / of my heart. marry me: make me (no, not complete), / but a little more alive than i’ve ever been.

we do see a fair amount of Crowley’s eyes in the show but I also want to stan the rest of David Tennant’s face for being so expressive that even with these big sunglasses that you can still tell exactly what is going on in Crowley’s mind. this is of course assisted by the fact that what is going on in Crowley’s mind 99% of the time is “holy hot damn I love ONE (1) complete idiot” but the thought still stands

Aziraphale Blinked Rapidly. “One Of…” He Trailed Off In Realisation. “You—You Made…? Before

Aziraphale blinked rapidly. “One of…” he trailed off in realisation. “You—You made…? Before you…?”

The demon turned away. “Yup.” He popped the ‘p’ sound, shrugging. The light in his eyes shuttered a little, flickering behind something deep and aching. Aziraphale started to move his hand before he realised what he was doing, then pulled it back and let it fall into his lap.

“I could show you, if you like.” Crowley’s tone was flippant, but the tension in his posture was unmistakable.

“Show me…?” asked Aziraphale.

Crowley held up a hand, flexing his fingers in a jerky wave. “The nebula. If you wanted.”

Aziraphale’s eyes widened. “Oh. Oh.”

Crowley waited, hand help up in offer. Aziraphale’s heart hammered in his chest. He felt altogether too human, some unknown chasm gaping at his feet.

“…alright.”

how do you know if you're in love???

I honestly asked my friend this same question just hours ago as I was clueless myself but thinking about it now I think it’s when for the first time after what seemed like a dreadful year (or life), you look forward to waking every morning knowing he (let’s use he as it’s me talking) will be there for you. I think it’s just plain seeing him and being happy that’s he’s around. It’s being happy just by hearing his voice. No matter how bad your day is, one message from him would make your entire day. It’s when he makes you want to write long letters and huge poems. It’s not all about “lust”- it’s more of the intimate relationship you have together. It’s when the simplest of things count. It’s when you start to mature and start to plan something with him for the future. It’s when he makes you want to start fixing your life. It’s when he’s always in your head 3 pm or 3 am. It’s when you can’t stop talking or thinking about him. It’s when you just really always miss him even if he’s right beside you. It’s the “I used to like green eyes but now blue eyes are my favorite”. It’s when all love and cheesy stuff just apply for him. It’s when you begin to see nothing but him and you value him like you value yourself. It’s not the “heart pounding, hands sweating” feeling but more of the “I feel home” feeling. It’s more of like talking to yourself- being yourself with someone without worries. It’s when you begin to really trust him with everything and that includes your happiness. It’s when he’s your happiness. It’s when subconsciously you change for the better. It’s when you once again start opening up after a long time. It’s when you are denying it at most cause you are afraid of how strong you feel and last I think while you’re reading this- there’s someone in your head right now and you’re just contemplating whether you’re in love with him or not but hey the fact that he or she is the person (out of billions of people) in your mind while you read this must say a lot.

Although often taken for granted, Google Earth is an incredible feat accomplished by mankind that people 300 years ago would have considered completely mental.
