ineffable idiots

by Emily Dickinson

Aziraphale: #omg wait you think crowley’s my boyfriend??? #omg what noooo no way haha #you really think so??? #i mean like he’s definitely not #but that’s the impression you got???? #not that it matters #but that’s what you truly thought when you saw us together?????

Uriel: “He’s in trouble too.”

Crowley presenting as female to be Warlock’s Nanny? The way this was filmed, acted, and written wasn’t made to be funny whatsoever. She was stunning, I loved the hat!

Pollution using they/them pronouns while the postman used the gender neutral honorific of sir for them? What’s there to make fun of? They’re royalty.

Archangel Michael, who has a traditionally male name, played by a female actress? Never questioned.

Lord Beelzebub’s androgyny? Only respect for the Lord of Hell.

Aziraphale sharing Madame Tracy’s body? Crowley recognized his angel and accepted it no problem. He was right about the dress too, it did suit him!

Crowley’s pure, unfiltered non-binary/gender-fluid energy in general? Fucking fabulous. Who could seriously make fun of this demon’s style? As someone once pointed out to me, you could swap him with Tilda Swinton and I’d see no difference. What an icon.

For our angels and demons, it was intensely liberating having male and female actors auditioning for the same roles, and just picking the ones who we felt nailed the characters best.

Also, can I just hear a wahoo for the wonderful Archangel Uriel, Gloria Obianyo?

No, seriously, look at him

He’s amazed

Shoked

Thankful

He just can’t believe it

And his wife is so proud and she supports him so much

She even puts her hand on his shoulder to help him cope with all of the emotions
