Signal Boost: trellanyx's Crowley Falls in Rome theory
We all agree that Crowley hardened pretty quickly between the time of the crucifixion and Rome, yes? He’s seen horrific things done by humans and to humans, whether this comes from their own wonderful, terrible imaginations, or on Heaven’s orders. He’s sulking in this scene specifically because the human he was supposed to tempt toward evil is already doing the butterfly stroke in the deep end. He’s jaded and cynical – about the world, humanity, Heaven, Hell…
…and about Aziraphale.
Because I think that when we see him in Rome, Crowley’s written Aziraphale off. I know it’s appealing to think this disaster snake’s been 100% smitten with his angel since the Beginning – lord knows I stan that headcanon hard – but follow me down this path for a second.
