this shit no sketch and alll feels I am Very Normal about them

I was thinking about Anthony J Crowley, as all normal ones do, and how it is that he seems to exist alone outside the dichotomy of Heaven and Hell. Crowley wasn't obedient enough to be an angel, he couldn't toe the party line, he wasn't deferential enough to God or any authority. But he's also not cruel, or apathetic enough to be a demon; he's too soft for Hell.

So what is Crowley? Not an angel, not a demon ("Former demon," he says in s2). But he's more than what he's not. Crowley is outside the Heaven/Hell binary because of who he is, the one identity that sets him apart from all other demons and angels: Crowley is the Serpent of Eden. The snake in the garden was the instigator of choice, the inspiration to humans to use free will. That's who Crowley is, and when he inspired Eve to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge, he aligned himself with the fate of humans.

Crowley doesn't belong to Hell, and he certainly doesn't belong to Heaven. Crowley belongs to humanity.

Crowley is not going to deny Aziraphale in season 3. He's not going to turn him away, or make him beg, or refuse him! Crowley does not love conditionally!! In fact he knows firsthand exactly how awful it is to be rejected by someone you love and trust just for being exactly who and what you are. He would never do that to Aziraphale. He didn't walk away when Aziraphale refused him the holy water, he saved him in 1941; Crowley didn't abandon Aziraphale (and earth) for alpha centauri during the apocalypse, he kept coming back for him until he knew Aziraphale was gone. Crowley will be there for him when Aziraphale reaches out because Crowley knows and understands Aziraphale better than anyone.
