Rejection in Good Omens

In season 2, Crowley was rejected by Aziraphale for the THIRD TIME. In season 1, Crowley offers Aziraphale to leave with him, saying, “We’re on our side”, but Aziraphale rejects his idea. When Crowley asks, for the second time in season 1, to “go off together” to Alpha Centurai, Aziraphale rejects the idea AGAIN.

In season 2, Crowley tries to convince Aziraphale they‘re on their own side, away from Heaven and Hell; Heaven and the angels who rejected them both aren’t worth going back to. But once again, Aziraphale rejects the idea and goes back to heaven.

During the rejections, Aziraphale states, “I forgive you.” meaning he’s rejecting Crowley’s ideas, not him.

Getting rejected by Aziraphale wouldn’t be Crowley’s first reaction. He is a fallen angel, after all; God, Heaven, and the other angels have rejected him. Even Hell and the other demons had rejected him after Armageddon. Heck, even Crowley himself seems to have rejected himself; he calls himself a “Former Demon”.

While Aziraphale’s first and only rejection seems to be him getting kicked out of heaven after Armageddon.

"The worst he could say is no."

Aziraphale: "I forgive you."

Ineffable Love

Our favourite Ineffable Couple (Aziraphale & Crowley) never said “I love you” to each other. Instead, they showed their love for each other.

Actions speak louder than words.

Their love really is Ineffable “It is beyond understanding and incapable of being put into words.”

Aziraphale & Crowley Dance

Fun Fact: Aziraphale learned the dance Gavotte (this is mentioned in season one).

The final step of Gavotte is to kiss your partner. This explains why Aziraphale was upset when the Gavotte went out of fashion. I imagine he learnt it in the hopes that one day he might convince Crowley to dance it with him. But by the time he was brave enough to ask Crowley to come to the club, he couldn't because nobody danced it anymore.

Aziraphale had waited over a hundred years, waiting for the right opportunity, to ask Crowley to dance with him.
