no I didn't completely forget about this post.

anyways!! the amptp still sucks and the strike is still ongoing, and I have now finished David Tennant's era :D

- I love Tennant's doctor. As simple as that really. I do not like how much he made me cry. I cried a lot watching his seasons and I wasn't really prepared for that

- The companions were amazing and I love them all, BUT I think Donna was my favourite. She's so <33333 also Catherine Tate's comedy is unmatched

- that being said Rose <3 Martha <3 Jack <3

- Christmas specials were pretty fun!

- i want to go back to when I didn't know what weeping angels were because I am now TERRIFIED of statues (also I thought Blink was Eleven's episode?? I was wrong lmao)

- the master was amazing your honour I love him he did nothing wrong

- here's me appreciating daleks again I love them I love them I love them

anyways yeah!! I think I prefer 10 to 9 so far (although 9 is always and forever amazing and I don't get why people don't like him)

also yeah I have already started 11s season and I'm on Amy's Choice! love the doctor, love amy and RORY <3 he's amazing.

allons-y! :D

do you guys think I could finish doctor who before the amptp are ready to negotiate

michael sheen playing aziraphale is like someone being assigned a 500 word paragraph as homework and instead they turn in a 5 page essay complete with hand drawn diagrams, a paper maché model, and a box of homemade shortbread to share with the class

Question:

Has anybody ever forgiven aziraphale?

Like. I know it's pretty rare for aziraphale to own up to when he's done something wrong and rationalizes away his cognitive dissonance. But that behavior, while encouraged by Crowley, is out of self preservation.

With heaven there is no room to question, but there's also no room to make mistakes. Small ones are met with mockery and derision, not forgiven. Big ones? Whether it means losing his post on earth, or Crowley, or his own life, there is no second chance for aziraphale.

There's no point in apologies. Sure, he'll grovel or lie or fawn, but simply apologizing and telling the truth is just. Not an option.

He's willing to forgive heaven and Gabriel and tenants and Crowley, but cannot imagine that same kindness being extended to him. He was created in a system that reinforced the idea that he should be infinitely patient and understanding, but that he doesn't deserve the same.

And so he's constantly dealing with shame and guilt and grief and regret that stacks and stacks and hasn't had an outlet for 6000 years. Repression of those feelings is mandatory to survive the system, and remain functioning.

This of course is then perpetuated into his relationship with Crowley. He could ask for forgiveness, but he doubts it will be given, not without conditions or atonement. Why not skip to the groveling and do the silly dance? It keeps things vague, less vulnerable. There is safety in ambiguity.

He knows he can't be forgiven, but having that unambiguously confirmed, hearing Crowley tell him so directly?

He would break.
