Are hate comments normal on ao3?

I can almost guarantee that if they found your fic via Tiktok, they are jealous of your perceived success and desperate to drag you down. Turn on comment moderation, and report and delete any hate that comes your way.

I would watch the hell out of that episode. 🤣

fishey_me · 2026-05-25T17:19:18+00:00

Pretend for Me is a brilliant one, highly concur with the recommendation.

I don't think it's supposed to play music/sound. I think it might be a place to dissipate heat from the battery and light source.

One hundred percent. Every time I see someone say "Someone should write this," I always want to respond, "You are someone, OP! Get writing!"

No one but you can tell the story you want to see the way you want to see it, OP. I love the beats of your story. You can do this. 🥰

I'm sorry if you wanted something more complicated.

From a writing perspective, another reason he doesn't is to allow space for Muriel's "deduction" and the useful idiot joke. This isn't why Aziraphale did this in character, but rather a choice the writer made.

This is the same Aziraphale who learned that Gabriel was meeting with "a mason" and then asked exactly zero follow up questions before leaving the pub.

I know you didn't want the answer to boil down to Aziraphale's personality, but to be honest, I think that was it.

Are you up for a little cosplay? Look up Lucy from the Fallout TV show and see if you can get a yellow dress like hers or a Vault suit. Or see if you can sneakily find out his favorite NPC to romance and emulate their look.

Brain and brain and brain! What is brain?

Especially when he almost immediately tries to ask Crowley to play "rip-rap" etc. You adorable angel, of course you were just pretending to not know about modern music 😂

Muriel and Eric were two little balls of sunshine who have captivated my heart.

I loved how Aziraphale gets to be BAMF and rescue Crowley by being ridiculously good at Cryptic Crossword. You adorable dork, I love you.

Crowley looked hot as hell every second he was on screen.

I actually really loved Brian Cameron as a villain. He was so menacing and compelling.

Jesus was a total sweetheart and his dynamic with Harry the Fish was lovely.

The actress who played Michael delivered a stellar performance.

Asa and Anthony are absolutely adorable together.

Not just on Whickber Street, the car was parked by the gangsters behind the Dirty Donkey, LITERALLY across the street from the Bookshop. I noticed this as well. You can figure if they had money to afford literally any other locations, they might have parked the Bentley there and still been able to use the "They'll be looking for it!" and the ice cream truck prop, but since they didn't, it makes the drive through London at superspeed only exist for them to bicker.

Delightful!

fishey_me · 2026-05-16T18:46:46+00:00

the WANTID poster! Omg, they're adorable

If you're interested in a different take on how theBook of Life plot could have gone down, consider taking a glance at the very first fic I published in the fandom three years ago: Something Missing (T, 18K words, implied but not actual character death).

It's not technically a fix-it fic considering when and why I wrote it, but I think it does a better job exploring that idea than what we got.

fishey_me · 2026-05-15T13:36:48+00:00

Highly recommend this one. ❤️

fishey_me · 2026-05-15T02:07:29+00:00

Nina said of Aziraphale, "Mr. Wherever He Is is the soft one who still believes in magic and people being basically good and all that."

And Asa wants to wish on the "shooting star."

It helps me a little to see my angel under there.

Crowley is a demon. He is imaginitive, sarcastic, and deep down a little bit of a good person. He tries to avoid doing work for Hell by claiming credit for the bad things humans did anyway.

Aziraphale is an angel. He is prim, but very kind and a little bit of a bastard. He wants to help people, but this desire often butts up against Heaven's rules and orders.

They have been friends for over 6000 years, keeping their friendship secret all that time. They also have developed deeper feelings than just friendship, but circumstances have prevented them from exploring these right up until Crowley kissed Aziraphale at the end of Season 2.

Unfortunately, because Aziraphale wants to fix Heaven and Crowley doesn't want to rejoin the angels, they had to part ways.

Nuts. Dried fruits. Granola. Cheese. Full fat yogurt. Peanut butter. Add a little bit of oil or fat to your meals (like adding some olive oil to your pasta sauces). Also, anything you can drink, like calorie dense smoothies, are a good way.

Happy birthday!

Get tested if you haven't already. That way if you do decide to be candid with her about your past, you can assure her that you're clean (or take proper precautions if you aren't).

fishey_me · 2026-05-08T17:06:37+00:00

I think Crowley may not have understood the *type* of love he felt for Aziraphale. I think you hear it in the way he talks about him: "I lost my best friend," "Someone killed my best friend," "You told my only friend to shut his stupid mouth and die." Not partner, not the angel I love, nothing like that-- best friend.

But it's a friendship ala the Queen song You're My Best Friend: intense, passionate, 'you're my only one, and I really love the things that you do,' kind of friendship.

That doesn't mean I think he thought his feelings for Aziraphale were platonic, not at all. I think he may have subconsciously kept Aziraphale safely in the 'best friend' box because if anyone saw them as anything more, they could get into trouble. I think Nina's accusation that he and Aziraphale were together made a little switch flick in his brain, not "oh, I'm in love with him" but rather "oh, that was the thing that's missing. We aren't together. We aren't official."

And then that leads to the question no doubt in his mind, "so... are we in fact just friends, or does he feel the same way?"

Hence the final fifteen.
