You'll do great ❤️

I also have that tab...I wonder if everyone does? I've never had any interest in One Piece 🤔

hey there! first of all, i'm so sorry to hear your family's difficult situation :( i hope they're getting some peace about it.

secondly, good question! i'm not amazing at this, but i do have a way of thinking about it. and that would be: the differences between the two of them. satan's goals are always the same: loneliness, isolation, distraction, blame, etc. he wants to cause you to feel like it's hopeless, that you can't win this "test"; to lash out, or give up on yourself and God. to feel worthless and defeated.

God's purposes for situations are never about that. He always promises to be with you and help you along the right path. He's not disappointed if you make the wrong decision, instead He wants you to get back up again and keep trying. He's not shocked by your emotions, He wants to hear from you. the way to beat His "tests" is literally to let Him do it, trusting that He's going to figure it out for you. when you keep your focus on Him (reading the Bible, praying, listening to music, etc) instead of the bad things that are happening, He keeps you afloat.

we don't always get the answers as to why tough things are happening the way they are, but we can trust that the Righteous Omniscient God is still working behind the scenes even if we can't see it.

" 'My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,' says the Lord. 'And My ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so My ways are higher than your ways and My thought higher than your thoughts.' " (Isaiah 55:8-9)

P.S. I hope Adam Bash is doing OK during this hiatus

1 - Favourite individual episode

There's a lot I could go for but.... I'm actually going to say the bonus episode Monkey's Paw. For all that I love the characters and plot and interaction, it's hard to pick out one episode based on that. So instead I have picked based on how many times I can relisten to it in a row without getting bored.

4 - Favourite AI

I am torn between SAYER and FUTURE. They're both absolutely fantastic in different ways. FUTURE embraced its feelings wholeheartedly, no matter how much it hurts. It's worth it. Every time.

SAYER is. A bit more unstable about the idea. And I love it struggling with that growth.

8 - Favourite piece of random worldbuilding / lore Adam threw into an episode without ever explaining or elaborating

The Day The Mirrors Seethe. What the fuck is up with that, holy shit. I want to know more so badly.

21 - Would you ever apply to try and get a job working for Ærolith Dynamics? If yes, why - for the betterment of earth and humanity? For a better life among the stars? For simple AI fucker reasons?

It's AI fucker reasons. I guess AI romance or relationship reasons, but um. Yes. Science is cool, space is beautiful, I wanted to be an astronaut as a kid, I would apply to Ærolith because I want to be possessed by an AI and fall in love with it. Possibly be ordered around by it. No one read this answer.

22 - Say you got through the excruciating employment process - what position did you apply for?

I applied for something I thought would be meticulous and easy, like filing or sorting something. I like stuff like that. Stuff that doesn't actually require me to work hard.

23 - Say you got through the excruciating employment process - regardless of what you would like to do - what job would Ærolith think you're best suited for?

I actually, for once in my entire life, have watched something someone is reccing me!!!

Certainly, dear!

The Wanting Comes in Waves by skimmingthesurface

Looking at cottages in the South Downs should be fairly simple for one angel and demon who've seen their fair share of residences across centuries, but although they want to take this step to bridge the two halves of their side in the years after stopping Armageddon, there's still a wanting that's tucked away, that they wouldn't dare let see the light of day just yet.

Though, their estate agent believing them to be married might not give them much of a choice in the matter.

I did say bone cabinet! It’s the cabinet we put all our bones/skulls, wet specimens, and general oddities and curiosities in.

It fill me with happiness anytime I look at them.

I always, for some reason, thought that book Crowley implicitly understood that Aziraphale was discorporated rather than really dead (it's discribed as him being "out of the picture") which meant he was more likely to be upset that Aziraphale had left him to deal with the whole mess than to grieve for him. He knows Aziraphale is somewhere. He just isn't here, so it's all up to Crowley to fix things now.
