"One of the worst things you can do to someone in a relationship is to use them as a means to an end" - brennan lee mulligan
this is one of the reasons i never got behind milkvan. from what the show has done, i think both mike and el are doing this to each other
mike -> to have a girlfriend to assuage his insecurities
el -> to achieve the relationships she saw onscreen so she can feel loved
they do this to each other despite caring about each other deeply because society's conditioning in both of these aspects can be so intense, especially when you're young and you haven't yet had the time to figure out what you as an individual really want

I just realized what Michael Sheen's face was doing during the end credits and OMFG he is beyond amazing! *o*
I already did an indepth analysis on why Aziraphale acted the way he did after that heart wrenching kiss scene.. but it wasn't until @charlotteharlatan post about the Nightingale song on the car's radio could have been that got my brain into a tizzy.
"Many people, meeting Aziraphale for the first time, formed three impressions: that he was English, that he was intelligent, and that he was gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide. Two of these were wrong."
Many people paint Aziraphale as this gullible innocent character but don't forget.. he is highly intelligent. Completely traumatized by his past abusive relationship with Heaven but intelligent.
When Metatron told him of their Second Coming plan.. how quickly he put things together before stepping onto that elevator. He turns toward Crowley to give him one last look and heads up to Heaven.
And for the next minute.. we watch as Michael Sheen micro-contorts his expression through the stages of grief.
Shock from hearing Heaven's plans for the Second Coming. Anger for realizing what he was just tricked into doing. Despair for what he gave up when he thought he was making the right choice. And then reorganizing his thoughts and acceptance of his current situation. And that final smirk.. ;) oh.. OH! That is the face of an Angel on a mission against Heaven. And he's already made up his mind. Stop Heaven's plans (again). Get revenge on them for forcing him into this situation. And of course, to get his Crowley back.
GO S3 is gonna be INSANE :D
THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I IMAGINE IT WILL FEEL LIKE WHEN BYLER IS ENDGAME:
one character from vicious i genuinely have a hatred for is probably serena
Robin and Finney are literally right people, wrong time im going to sob
I love the unverified leak of a Will kissing Mike's forehead in the hospital. Like bylertruth3r, I think it would be a callback and reversal of their s2 roles, with Will at Mike's side this time. With Mike being asleep, since Will is convinced Mike doesn't like him it would be his ONLY chance to physically show affection to him. :'(
Also, what if Mike ends up in the hospital defending Will? (And what if it's from homophobic bullies)? Then I think the writing would be on the wall about Byler endgame =D And OF COURSE Will would want to kiss Mike after that!
And what if Will walks away, and we end with Mike OPENING HIS EYES TO SEE IT WAS WILL. He was awake during the kiss!
