Remus: One cactus.
Patton: No. No, put the cactus down. No cacti in the pumpkin cookies.
When I was like eight years old I overheard my mother and aunt talking about how apparently if you don't learn to wiggle your ears as a kid, you'll never be able to, and that they wished they could wiggle their ears
And little 8-year-old me went "oh man, I better learn to wiggle my ears now so I don't regret it later!"
Anyway I can now and I have never once gone "boy, good thing I can wiggle my ears"
I started getting a ton of notifications from Tumblr and was like 'haha this must be a glitch' and then I clicked on one and. Neil Gaiman reblogged this. That's why I was getting so many notifications.
I don't know how he found this but sir you have made my day and I appreciate you and your storytelling very much
Broke: Good Omens isn't a gay love story because Crowley and Aziraphale aren't in love
Woke: Good Omens is a gay love story because Crowley and Aziraphale are in love
Bespoke: Whether Good Omens is a gay love story or not is debatable; it is, however, undeniably a story of the love between Crowley and Aziraphale (whatever type of love that may be)
Neil Gaiman: Good Omens isn't a gay love story because while Crowley and Aziraphale are in love, they are not human males, they are an angel and a demon
Roman, having recovered: Okay, so I didn't catch Virgil, but someone else has to listen to embarrassing music. Let me think...
Roman: So, Remus and Patton don't get embarrassed about that stuff. I doubt Logan listens to music with words anyway. So... What, D— Janus? What does he even listen to?
Roman: (imagines Janus sitting at a table sipping tea while a classical waltz plays in the background)
Roman: I mean, that might be worse than dancing, especially if he's alone.
Meanwhile, in the dark side:
Remus:
Janus:
Both:

My father just showed me this and I feel like if Remus was a celebrity, this is exactly what he would do
- Jeff Goldblum as Zeus
- A disabled actors play a disabled characters (Mat Fraser & another secret one [because spoilers])
- A trans actor plays a trans character (I won't say which one since it's kind of a spoiler)
- Set in modern times, uses characters from old myths but isn't a simple retelling; it's a whole new story
- All your favs are there (Prometheus, Daedalus, Persephone, Dionysus, Cassandra, Medusa, Charon, Ariadne, the Fates, the Furies, just to name a few)
- Speaking of Persephone, she and Hades are actually in love (the version of the myth which I know much of you love)
- Gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss Hera (as in, she literally does all those things)
- The gods' actors' ages actually make sense, they didn't cast solely young people or make young people look older; you've got Zeus (72), Hera (63), Hades (61), Persephone (56), Poseidon (56), Dionysus (27), you get the idea
- Killer soundtrack
- Actual realistic queer characters/representation in a natural, unforced way
- Enjoyable story and comedic but also has depth (I binge-watched it in a day)
- Not a huge commitment (8 episodes of about 50 minutes each)
- Have you ever thought "What would the Ancient Greek gods be doing in modern times?" This show answers that question!
- It wasn't renewed for a second season due to viewership, so if the views explode, maybe they'll renew it and I can find out what happens next (I know it's not likely, but I can dream; besides, if just one person watches and enjoys it, then this post will have been worth it)
Janus: Yeah, I can look at their bank account and the worth of every item they own. Money is more than just the material objects of bills and coins.
Logan: *huff*
Logan. "Why don't you believe ghosts are real?"
Janus. "I've never seen one."
Logan. "Okay, I mean, there's a lot of things that you can't see that you— that are real."
Janus. "What can't I see?"
Logan. "You can't see gravity, that's real."
Janus. "Yeah, I can drop an apple."
Logan. "Fuck."
Me, years ago: If I want to be a Proper Trans Boy and be Respected By People then I must always be masculine and not wear dresses, or skirts, or makeup, or paint my nails—
The Internet:
Toxic Masculinity
Femboys
Me, crying in joy, painting my nails, curling my eyelashes, wearing a dress because it is Too Damn Hot for shorts, self-esteem skyrocketing: Yeah go ahead
Q: What do you have to say about the queerbaiting accusations?
A: What do you mean?
Q: People are accusing you of pretending to be queer for your own personal gain.
A: I've never said I was queer.
Q: Well, no, but you flirt with your (same-gender) friends and joke about being in a relationship with them.
A: Those are just jokes; all my friends make those jokes, with all our friends, regardless of gender. Nobody gets mad at me when I make those jokes with my (not-same-gender) friends.
Q: That's different.
A: Why, because being straight is the "default"?
Q: ...
A: What I'm hearing here is that people speculated my sexuality, were wrong, and then got mad at me for it. I never pretended to be queer or said I was, I'm just comfortable joking around with my friends.
This is the first time anyone's tagged Thomas on one of my posts (I think) oh my god this was a barely coherent thought when I was half-asleep—
Janus’s light side name is Janan
He/they (both equally good)I love asks, requests, general interaction, and stuff like that!Mostly various fandom stuff, I'm just having a good time and enjoying myselfI hope I can make you smile :)
