I Will Search Up So Many Plant Facts For This Fic Once I Write It - Tumblr Posts

Behold! My idea for what I think Crowley shall be doing post season 2:

(TLDR at the bottom)

Even though Shax moved out (presumably) the apartment is still technically owned by hell, so I feel like he would pull a few miracles to get himself a little shop (I like a little shop) where he sells plants, it’s functionally a greenhouse with a painting studio on top — Crowley also broke into the old apartment to get his stuff back, the statue from 1941, Aziraphale’s thermos, and the Mona Lisa cuz I found a post talking abt how he and da Vinci were probably besties — that just looks like Rapunzels tower, random paintings on the wall being painted over each other so many times (this part came from a fic where Crowley has a room in his apartment filled with paintings of Aziraphale, I changed it a bit but I still wanna give credit)

He spends about a month or two just wallowing, he bought the place on whickaber st (I don’t remember how to spell I’m so sorry) so he keeps running into the other shop keepers — he kinda is one now — and Maggie and Nina keep staring at him, which he is not pleased about.

He ends up adopting Muriel (kinda) as well as a fuck ton of random little kids who either have shitty parents, no parents, or just feel like hanging out and have an interest in plants (most of them neurodivergent or queer, or both). He doesn’t hide much of his snakieness around the kids who live with him (most of the second floor is dedicated to the children he’s taken in, with some dimensional stuff to make more room) mostly because they don’t find him scary, over the millennia children have always been fine with his eyes — they’re often too young to have the prejudices adults have, although that has changed in recent centuries.

He grows his hair out a bunch because I said so, and I love the bun/braid look with still hair down, it’s amazing and very gender. The plant shop is covered in vines and huge leaves — Crowley is attempting to replicate Eden by hand, also he’s been selective about how he talks to the plants, it really depends on his mood, so the plants have been getting a lot of emotional whiplash, but thankfully the kids always explain to the plants what Crowley really means and if his words were directed at the plants or another allegory for himself.

That’s as far as I’ve gotten in it, I know at some point Aziraphale is gonna come back and there shall be extra angst (there’s already a lot of angst, but this will just be a slightly different flavour of angst)

(TLDR: Crowley starts a greenhouse/paint studio/foster home and teaches kids about ducks and plants and history)
