We're Having A Ball! - Tumblr Posts

"She Had Balls!" "Well-"

So we all know the part of Episode two where Crowley and Aziraphale are discussing fictitious ways to try and get Nina and Maggie to fall in love. Aziraphale brings up Jane Austen and says the following: "People would gather..and do some formal dancing. And then realized they had misunderstood eachother and were actually, deeply in love!" Then after Crowley states that sounds unlikely, Aziraphale says "Works everytime apparently"

Then later when the actual ball he plans is happening, we see him gearing up and getting all excited to ask Crowley to dance- and then him quickly swooping him away with a giggle.

Now...maybe I'm overthinking things as per usual... But was our dear Mr. Fell under the hopes that dancing with Crowley would get the demon to recognize Aziraphales feelings for him? He had promised it would be a night to remember after all. I mean, Crowley basically described him and Aziraphales meeting in Eden when he was describing his idea of falling in love (that he ""saw in a Richard Curtis film"") Would it be too out of the blue to wonder if Aziraphale would try and use the lovey dovey ball fantasy he was reenacting to his advantage? Constantly insisting that they're safe, nothing could possibly go wrong, and that Crowley was exaggerating? Maybe he just wanted a night of dancing with his crush without anything going wrong so the Jane Austen magic would work.

Look at the little smiiilee! I dunno- random shower thought!
