I Heard Ppl Talking Shit About Turning Red, That It “unlike Encanto, Didn’t Do A Good Job Of Explaining

Kinda wild that a Halloween episode could be this eh.

So, I feel like I’m losing my mind. I keep seeing metas about how Aziraphale wants Crowley to return to Heaven and be an angel again because he wants them to be on the same side/be good/change/etc., etc., etc. but I don’t see that at all. I actually see it as the very opposite.

Aziraphale loves Crowley just as he is. But there’s something more. Something huge.

Aziraphale loves Crowley and because he is an angel who is stuck in seeing things as black and white, he constantly praises Crowley for being nice. For being good. For being kind.

Aziraphale has watched Crowley on and off for 6,000 years. He watched him thwart the plans of Heaven and Hell because it was unjust. He spared the lives of innocents. He did small things that made Aziraphale happy just because (like making Hamlet successful and saving valuable books). And because Aziraphale sees things in black and white, he sees all the things Crowley has done as nice, as good, as kind.

Crowley vehemently attests he’s not nice or good or kind.

He’s not exactly wrong nor is he lying when he says this. When Crowley spares goats during a cruel bet over a righteous man and swallowing laudanum to prevent a suicide, when he prevents Armageddon by working with Aziraphale and stopping the Anti-Christ from being the Anti-Christ, he’s not doing the nice/good/kind thing.

He’s doing the right thing.

Crowley chooses to do the right thing without hesitation. He is better than all of Heaven and Hell who have callous and dispassionate view of all existence because he questions, because he makes choices. Crowley sees the world for all its messiness and he sees himself. He sees a place where he fits in. He sees the blurred edges.

And Aziraphale sees that, even if seeing the blurred edges is hard for him.

But here’s the thing that Aziraphale can’t voice.

It’s the reason why he told Crowley about being allowed to return to Heaven and become an angel again. He doesn’t want Crowley to change. He doesn’t think Crowley is flawed. Or not enough.

It’s something that is so monumental that it cannot be put into words. Because to put it into words would be more than blasphemy. It’s down right unthinkable for anyone in Heaven, Hell, or Earth to say what Aziraphale knows deep in his soul.

God was wrong to cast out Crowley.

Aziraphale believes Crowley can/should return to Heaven because he knows that Crowley should never have fallen in the first place. He wants him to be forgiven because when Crowley fell it was unjust. Aziraphale is trying to correct a mistake. He’s trying to do the right thing.

Yes, Crowley would never accept returning to Heaven. And Aziraphale was wrong to even suggest it (although that conversation is another can of worms to unpack).

Aziraphale loves Crowley. He loves him exactly as he is. He doesn’t want him to change. Aziraphale knows that Crowley the best of all of them. He wants to change Heaven because of it. Because God was wrong and Aziraphale knows it.

Aziraphale may have difficulty seeing beyond black and white, but when it comes to Crowley he sees everything crystal clear and in vivid color.

The end of loki s2 song is like a feeling this undescribable feeling of odd acceptance of something terrible. It's the acknowledgement that your whole life you had kept yourself first you were fine with others being sacrificed for your own accomplishments because for people to succed one must be sacrificed. It's the acceptance thst you're thst sacrifice now that maybe you deserve to be selfless in this moment even if it'll hurt you and the people you wish to see succeed It's the feeling that comes when you give up your dream job for a friend or rival the feeling of a parent giving up their life for their children accepting thst they now need to devote themselves to raise these humans It's the feeling of sacrificing everything just so you can watch them thrive. It's what you feel when you're selfishly selfless. Even if you were selfish your whole life you have to be selfless .in this moment. You have to be the sacrifice. Because your love for them is much more important then your desperate wants.

this is like the dlc to my xmen fixation 😭

anyways take this wip of their mcdonalds date

hello i have made this account to bring this to your attention

THANK YOU !!!!! this is so silly of them i didnt even realize that isaac was possessing sam at first LOL

cock out and everything, you go girl 🎀

sorry tumblr

it had to be done

stay strong, guys

Ghosts (US) S4E2 SPOILERS!!!

(I’m just talking about the Nigel B-plot)

okay so they really did bury the gays 😭

sorry chat but i dont think they’re resurrecting Nisaac. its such a shame that they killed off a couple with so much potential to be the old married couple dynamic (not to mention the only queer one not counting the neighbors). i also have a feeling that we’ll be seeing Nigel a lot less now that he’s back in the shed. Worst case scenario, he rebounds with Jenkins to cope and it becomes a whole mess.

Another thing: i get that the other ghosts aren’t happy about Nigel constantly moping around the house, but cmon guys it’s been a week since he thought he’d be married to the lohl for the rest of eternity. have a little grace 😭

(also can we talk about how Isaac’s acting like he wasn’t pining over Nigel for over 200 years??? hello???)

The showrunners did say that nigel and isaac have some loose ends to tie up and emotions to deal with, so here’s to hoping that the ship at least sinks with grace 🫡

(on another note isaac getting beat up was so cathartic to me)
