I am still recoverin from Good Omens series finale-genuinley, I am not ready to let them go yet but I NEEDED to make a piece for them

Silly shows can be deep!! Silly shows can teach us things!!

I'm extremely late to the party, but after finishing Good Omens, I watched Our Flag Means Death for the first time and I'm really sad that not one but TWO great shows didn't get the endings they deserved.

GO and OFMD are comedies that start off with very silly premises. An angel and a demon team up to stop the apocalypse. A wealthy man abandons his aristocratic life to pursue his dream of becoming a pirate. These premises alone are enough for some people to dismiss a tv show in its entirety, but that's because we often forget to take a closer look.

Why go against Heaven and Hell in order to stop the apocalypse? Why would an angel and a demon care about the fate of humanity? Because they love it! After living among us for thousands of years, they found something that was worth saving! They realized that we always have choices and that things CAN be better, and in doing so, Aziraphale and Crowley found love in each other, too. (Which is why the "free will" universe in the finale makes no sense, but I won't get into that.)

Why give up a wealthy life? Why risk everything for a silly dream where Stede will most likely die a horrible death? Because he wanted to be happy! Because even though people made fun of him, he believed in himself! Even his crew didn't have faith in him, and it took Ed a little while to really SEE Stede, but while doing the impossible, Stede found love and friends and family. And this helped Ed realize that he was unhappy, too. Stede's journey of self-discovery grew far beyond just him because his dreams brought his crew together.

These shows are about love and forgiveness and hope and patience. They encourage us to form our own identities and to find family everywhere we go. They remind us that we CAN fix our mistakes, our relationships, our systems, and ourselves. We can choose love and kindness over violence and hatred! We can and should ask questions and be curious! We should tell others that we love them and remind ourselves that we are loved as well!

I’m a bit slow on the uptake, I know, but I just realized what pisses me off so much about asanthony. I’ve been trying hard not to hate them because they are just fanfic human AU and I love human AUs. I fall in love with all those characters immediately and find the similarities and differences with the true Aziraphale and Crowley very interesting and warming. But the difference between all those other human AUs and asanthony is that all those other characters are not trying to replace the true Aziraphale and Crowley. They live their parallel love stories without anything to do with our boys. But these new usurpers came here and stole their happy ending and that breaks my heart (and angers the crap out of me). It’s not their fault, they were just written this way, but I can't help but resent them for it. Maybe I’m being petty, but everytime I see them it makes me feel sick. And sad. And so pissed.

(And I hate their hair so much! Aren't there hairstylists in that crappy new universe? Don't they have hair products? Mirrors at least?)

I'll spare all of us a picture of them, but here, take a happy aziracrow instead.
