it turns out you get nothing but pain.
So, you guys, I’m about to share the angstiest headcanon/fic idea/thing…ever. Ever.
It’s a Good Omens/Supernatural crossover, set in the 2014!verse?
Okay, so basically, I can’t get the idea of GO!Crowley (who is a completely different person than SPN Crowley, okay) being left on earth after everything goes to shit, alone. Because Aziraphale left with the other angels. (Either against his will or voluntarily—if they took him against his will, though, he’d probably not have the chance to let Crowley know what was happening so he’d think that the angel had abandoned him.)
So Crowley’s stuck on earth, supposed to be helping along the end of the world, but, you know, he likes the earth and he doesn’t want everything to be terrible and all he wants is for it to go back to what it was, so he decides to join Dean’s camp/resistance thing. But obviously Dean doesn’t want a demon around, so he’d go to Cas who is high as a kite obviously.
And he doesn’t trust him at first but they sort of realize that they have a lot in common because they were both angels once and they miss it and they just have feelings of abandonment and they both believe that the human race is worth saving. And they end up getting high together and Crowley tries really hard not to talk about Aziraphale or Falling or anything, but of course he does, because when you’re high and you wordvomit. And he ends up telling Cas about Hell and Falling and how he can’t remember his name and by the end of it he’s almost sobbing. And of course Dean comes in at some point and tries to kill him anyway.
But he eventually… like, doesn’t trust him, of course, but lets him stay around because his Demon powers are really useful, but he’s nothing but mean to him.
And Crowley and Cas end up kind of confiding in each other and being friends, kind of like a second Arrangement. And he finds himself getting really mad at Cas for not being Aziraphale. He knows he shouldn’t try to replace him with this sad excuse for an angel but he cant help doing it. Which he knows is terrible and at points he feels badly but it’s like bro. You’re an angel. Please be my angel. Please.
And he knows he shouldn’t blame cas for staying when aziraphale didn’t. But he does and feels like a dick.
And cas has no idea what to do with all the feelings. He does so many drugs in that universe because after ages of no feelings at all the dam broke and suddenly he was drowning and had to put sandbags up.
And Crowley’s risking so much by finally saying fuck it and standing with the humans without Aziraphale for back up, but I feel like with the world gone to shit and Aziraphale gone he’d have literally nothing left to lose so he’d be really reckless and merciless to the Croats and hate himself because he is a good person, really, as much as he tries to pretend that he’s not.
And Destiel is sort of happening in the background, but I feel like since Crowley and Cas understand each others souls they definitely start a…something, but it’s not exactly what any of them want and it just makes it worse.
And uh. Yeah. That really got away from me, but… I can’t let go of the idea, but I’m not a talented enough writer or artist to do anything with it. But I think it has potential? So if anyone decides to do something (or might want to RP this with me or something?) drop me a line! :D
