Happy reading, and happy anniversary!

Happy Good Omens 35th anniversary !!!

I didn't think I would love these disaster gays as much as have when I started this show, but here we are :D

To celebrate, my first Good Omens fic is coming soon for the GO for a picnic event on ao3!

FACTS

When you're obsessed with Good Omens, there are 2 stages. There's the Queen stage, and then there's the Hozier stage.

If you don't already know what I'm talking about then you're either about to find out, or you'll never know what I am talking about.

good omens headcannon: THE BENTLEY EDITION

and yes, I've fully committed to the Bentley being a sentient entity

we all know this car is Aziracrow's child a (they have a custody agreement)

Crowley gets worried that the Bentley loves Aziraphale more than him (Aziraphale will neither confirm nor deny) so sometimes he'll randomly treat the her to of those really fancy deep cleans where they get all shiny and nice

he calls it her 'spa day'

although the Bentley loves Queen, she has recently taken a liking to Hozier as well

one time when Crowley was brooding during a drive she played From Eden and made him cry

she made sure she had tissues always stocked in the glove box from then on

The Bentley has a secret playlist she plays whenever Aziraphale and Crowley are driving together

it's called "dads <3"

the very last song on it is A Nightingale Sang in Barkley Square

Aziracrow headcannons: GARDEN EDITION

their garden is perhaps not the neatest in town, but definitely the most loved

when Aziraphale saw how much Crowley enjoyed gardening, he tried to learn how...the key word here being 'tried'

after MUCH reading, he no longer waters plants to death, or leaves them in the sun until they shrivel up, but can't quite bring himself to trim off dead leaves or snip buds, even when countless books (and Crowley) have told him it helps keep the plants alive

although Crowley likes to complain about all the wasted seeds and soil, he secretly finds it adorable how much his angel cares about the things Crowley's interested in

their garden is...chaotic, to say the least

the grass is neat enough, trimmed to perfection by Crowley, but the joy on Aziraphale's face when the first randomly planted wildflowers pop up stops him from properly organising everything else

Crowley tends to take note of the plants Aziraphale likes cooks with

he doesn't say anything, but a few weeks later a few of them silently turn up in the garden

they grow a lot of fruit, and every month or so they turn all the excess into jams, spending the whole day in the kitchen together (and almost all of the next day in there as well, cleaning the huge mess they managed to make)

Crowley heard somewhere that Hawthorn trees are good for nightingales

he planted one in the corner of the garden...just to see what would happen

and in the very centre of the garden, surrounded by spring flowers and neatly trimmed grass, is a singular apple tree

Beelzebub's fly hears the drama

Week 87 of posting Good Omens memes for Everyday until Season 3

Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, Good Omens, Marvel, DCU, Six of Crows, The Hunger Games, Throne of Glass, Percy Jackson, Hamilton, Hadestown, EPIC the Musical, Ghosts, and probably ten more by this time next week.

Expect headcannons, fic recs, and memes to ensue shortly

songs from my ineffable husbands playlist <3

From Eden (Hozier): Honey, you're familiar, like my mirror years ago; idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword; Innocence died screaming, honey ask me, I should know; I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door.

Northern Attitude (Hozier + Noah Kahan): if you get too close, and I'm not how you hoped, forgive my northern attitude, oh I was raised out in the cold...

Love of my life (Queen): Love of my life, you've hurt me...you've broken me down, and now you leave me...

Do I wanna know? (Hozier cover): Crawling back to you...every thought of calling when you've had a few? cause I always do...

Little talks (Of monsters and Men): So wait, wait, wait for me, please hang around, I'll see you when I fall asleep...

First Love/Last Spring (Mitski): And I don't wanna go home yet...let's walk to the top of the big night sky...so please hurry, leave me, I can't breathe, please don't say you love me...

Atlantis (Seafret): I can feel it coming down, and in my heart and in my head, tell me why this has to end...my Atlantis, I can't save us...

Daylight (David Kushner): Oh I love it and I hate it at the same time...you and I drink the poison from the same vine...hiding all of our sins from the daylight...

Good old fashioned lover boy (Queen): Does this one even need explanation?

making this made me realise just how angsty my good omens playlists are T_T

14th doctor headcannons: ANGST EDITION (because let's be real he's not the most mentally-stable of time-lords)

TW for panic attacks and just general angst - stay safe <3

he has the 'I could've done something to prevent it, therefore it's my fault' mentality for almost everything bad that has happened throughout their adventures

he's only now just starting to realise that he's not to blame for absolutely all of it (he's been told that it's not his fault countless times by practically every companion he has)

they despise feeling helpless or being told they can't do anything to help people

had a panic attack when UNIT was told by the UN not to 'interfere' with the construction of a British nuclear testing facility even though it was highly unstable

15 minutes later he went back in time and prevented its approval, of course

tends to go non-verbal during panic attacks (you can tell he's reached the tipping point when he stops trying to talk his way out of a situation)

Donna prompted him to start learning ASL to help them communicate when he has panic attacks

they start having little ASL conversations during boring UNIT meetings that she drags him to (they bicker like siblings)

he tries to avoid sleeping as much as possible since he has really vivid nightmares, usually about his past companions

on really bad nights he sneaks into the TARDIS and flies to a random nebula to watch the stars

sometimes they lose track of time staring at the sky for hours until Donna has to send the other doctor to find him

on those nights, the two doctors tend to sit together in silence for a while, heads resting against each other in quiet reassurance

he dissociates a lot more than his previous versions

sometimes multiple times in a conversation, especially if it's a conversation about things he'd rather forget

his friends have gotten real good at bringing him back (most of them have years of practice at this point) but River Song was always the best at it

which makes it hurt all the more when he finally feels someone tapping gently at his shoulder or calling his name and he looks around to see where his wife is

only to remember that she's not here

he doesn't cry very often - he's more likely to scream or kick something or go into problem solving mode then he is to cry

but occasionally, despite their best efforts to keep moving forward, keep running, they think about all the people that they've lost, all the lives they've ruined, all the companions they couldn't save and they can't stop the tears from flowing

...

he's so very old now

he's so very tired
