Good Omens 2 appreciation post for that moment after Nina has just rocked Crowley's world with the revelation that no, he isn't slick and yes, it is glaringly obvious to everyone just how head over heels in love with Aziraphale he is.
Crowley takes himself off to the french restaurant and is drowning his sorrows in a bottle of wine while having the realisation that he's been following the angel around like a lovesick puppy all day with no other possible agenda other than to be around him.
And then he sees Aziraphale and whistles him over but the angel is too busy to join him for a wine in the middle of the day and Crowley tries to divert questions by complaining that he's scared Gabriel/Jim is gonna smite him and he'll be well and truly smote, no, smoted? Smited? What's the word he's looking for?
And the angel gives him a knowing look and says:
PERFECTION.
GRAMMATICAL CORRECTION AND DIAGNOSIS IN A SENTENCE.
AZIRAPHALE JUST READ HIM LIKE A HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE BOOK AND DOESN'T EVEN REALISE HE HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD.
This is my new favourite double entendre.
Smitten as the past tense of Smite. And the exact reason Crowley is drinking in the middle of the day.
He's realising he's smitten, your honour.
I hope Neil closed the laptop with a dramatic flourish after writing that line. Hell if I'd written a moment that perfect I'd take a victory lap of the kitchen and then call someone to tell them how clever I'd been before I pop.

Reblog to let prev know their presence is wanted
ok ok, scene idea for gos2.
crowley and aziraphale have a huge fight. camera shows aziraphale in the middle of the night, pacing around the book shop (which has obviously been repaired), looking distressed but trying to keep busy.
then the camera switches to crowley in his apartment, lying in bed staring at the ceiling. it's like 2 in the morning.
crowley, quite drunk and alone at this point, calls aziraphale, who doesnt answer. on the answering machine he simply says "I love you, angel" and then goes back to bed. camera goes back to aziraphale, who froze and looked at the machine with shock.
cow :)
if this gets 20 notes I'll start posting shitty art, mostly fandom related. this isn't a bribe, it's a threat
people are made uncomfortable by this book?? as someone who has had my fair share of psychoactivity i think it's fucking hilarious and I'm struggling more to keep a straight face reading it in public than I do reading ao3 lemons honestly
something something art comforts the disturbed and disturbs the comfortable
specifically the chosen name Jim, not assigned at birth
if i had a nickel for ever time a side ship became canon in a silly little gay show and one of the people had the name jim i’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice
Dream + his rare, tiny, precious smile
