hello neil! i was curious about one particular line in s2. when crowley’s talking to that woman and he’s leading her outside and she says something along the lines of “you’re a nice lad” and crowley responds “i’m not either” was that intended to be about his gender identity? thanks!
He's not nice. He's a demon/fallen angel not a male human. He's not a young male human. He's not (young) or (male) or (human) or (nice).
So here’s what I’m thinking.
Good Omens was about Crowley being charged with delivering the Antichrist to earth and overseeing his upbringing.
The sequel, then, would’ve been about Aziraphale being charged with bringing about the Second Coming. A nice parallel to the first book.
But in order to get there, we would need a reason as to why it was Aziraphale, not Gabriel, who was charged with that. Traditionally it would’ve been Gabriel, right?
So Gabriel had to go away somehow, and Aziraphale had to become Supreme Archangel after rejecting and being rejected by Heaven. Hence, season 2, connecting the two stories.
And I love how Season 2 did this.
(and I have a lot of thoughts, so putting the rest of this long post beneath the cut)

Hello Mr Gaiman I was wondering if it was an intentional choice to show Gabriel and Beelzebub in love without a kiss scene because they are more detached from earth and humanity unlike Aziraphale and Crowley who know about human pleasures and rituals and adapted them.
I don't think kissing scenes have much to do with love. Anathema and Newt kissed when they barely knew each other in Season 1, and none of the other couples who loved each other did. I can't see any reason for Gabriel and Beelzebub to kiss: singing Everyday together seemed much more powerful. Crowley's kiss is about a lot of things but it's not to show they're in love: if you haven't got it by then you'll never get it.

I cant stop thinking about The Boy and the Heron.
It's horrifying. It's fantastical. It's tragic. It's beautiful. It's hopeful.
It's about grief. It's about family. It's about war. It's, "You don't have to walk the same path your ancestors did." It's "Your lived experience builds a world as deserving of your attention and care as your inner world" and "You inherited a flawed world, and you are flawed, and that is still beautiful" and "I made this beautiful thing and it's ending and that's just how it goes, but wasn't it beautiful?"
It makes me think about the worlds we make within ourselves and how they can be entrancing and wonderful even as they lead us to walk deeper into ourselves and away from those around us. It makes me think about connection, about how love can be so flawed sometimes but it is still something we need to hold onto. It asks "What if the monsters never asked to be monsters?" and "What if things can die before they're even born?"
It's about not being afraid of fire, not being afraid of endings, not being afraid of the world falling apart, of pain, of walking away, of reconciling, of finding new family and new love even as you mourn and miss what you lost.
It says, "Beautiful, wonderful things end, but afterwards, you can go home."
I'm going crazy.
