Never Thought Of It But It's So Right!!! - Tumblr Posts
but guys, just think, Aziraphale and Crowley met at Eden when there were only two people in the whole world. and for the first 500 years or so after Creation, there would have been like less than 1,000 people around, if that?? the first hundred years, maybe like just 50 people (all of Adam and Eve’s kids basically, and some grandkids?) and they wouldn’t have migrated very far yet at all, I’m guessing.
so basically Crowley and Aziraphale would have just kept bumping into each other, like all the time?? literally they could have been in the same hut, telling each other to knock it off bc it was their turn to whisper from someone’s shoulder, and couldn’t they go tempt / bless someone else? (”but there is nobody else right now, angel! not enough people have been born yet!”) they’d have been stepping on each other’s toes, and definitely not so secretly pleased to see each other nearly every other day. (“oh dear, that’s my list all done for the year I’m afraid. whatever shall we do now, with all this free time?” hint hint, heart eyes.)
and then, as the population started increasing exponentially and people started migrating, they’d start to see less of the other, and start missing each other a lot more. (maybe Crowley came up with the concept of long-distance relationships, and curses himself to this day for it). and then that’s when they started arranging actually meeting times, taking active steps (and making silly excuses) to see each other. (“oh my schedule is so packed at the moment, ssss’pity we can’t share the workload. then we might have time to try that new thing, what do they call it again, a restaurant?” blink blink.)
