listen, fam, I am not usually one to deliver The Angst, but the thing you gotta know about me is that I do not suffer alone
So I need you to know, I absolutely need you to know, that as Aziraphale watches Crowley walk away, after he (Aziraphale) declares that it’s over between them
there is the slightest little lip wobble. did you see it??? HERE, LEMME GIVE YOU A CLOSE-UP
kill me now
JUST LOOK AT THE HEARTBREAK ON HIS FACE. Because he knows–he just knows–that this is it. Six thousand years and this is the last time he’ll ever see Crowley.
Even if he manages to stop Armaggedon, this is it. It’s over. He said it was over. Why did he do that? He doesn’t WANT it to be over. Six thousand years wasn’t enough, how is he gonna manage six thousand more without him?
the OTHER THING that I absolutely need you to see again is Crowley’s reaction to being told it’s over
he just stands there and stares. He just stands there for so long that I can’t gif it because it’s too big of a file. That’s how thrown Crowley is
play it cool, play it cool, he doesn’t know he just smashed my heart into the finest dust.
And the fact that Aziraphale only lasts a few seconds watching him leave?? before he has to look away??? It just fucking kills me.
Not only is it too painful for him, but he knows that he’s hurt Crowley, even though Crowley will never admit it, he’ll just internalize it just like he’s internalized everything that’s hurt him since the Falling. Just like he’s internalized the hurt from the Falling.
I simply can’t handle how genuine Michael Sheen is on Twitter.
He’s connecting with so many people regarding depression, gender identity and sexuality and letting them know it’s ok.
Also he just straight up has accepted his life is no longer his own and is Aziraphale’s life instead. Look! He said “my” in relation to this fan art of Az.
God this man has been my favorite actor for 10 years and I am so happy the rest of the world is getting to enjoy him now.
Crowley spends 6 thousand years on Earth constantly changing himself. Always a new hairstyle, always a new look, always keeping up with the latest fashions.
Aziraphale stays pretty much the same through the years. He keeps basically the same style of hair, the same clothes for far beyond when they were at the height of fashion, and was severely disappointed when his favorite dance went out of style.
Aziraphale finds something he loves and holds onto it. It’s a large part of why he thinks Crowley goes too fast. It’s not just his driving. It’s how he so quickly goes from one thing to another. He doesn’t want to be just another thing Crowley leaves behind.
