Saw a Chinese GO fan write-up of fanexpo Q&A with David. They compiled questions from both themselves and a friend. Some thoughtful answers here so English translation below.

Q: Did Crowley get everything he wanted in the end?
DT: "No. No. He was evaporated. And then someone who looked a bit like him met someone who looked a bit like Aziraphale, but it's not the same thing."
Q: So they really don't have their memories anymore at the end?
DT: "I don't think they do. I think it's a little moment of celestial serendipity."
Q: In the first two seasons, Crowley often wanted to run away somewhere else with Aziraphale. But in the end, he chose humanity's free will instead of his own happiness. What caused that change?
DT: "I think by the end, he's the most selfless person of all. That's the problem, really. He's actually a very bad demon. He has far too much empathy and far too much humanity in him."
Q: So when he talked about running away to Alpha Centauri in the first two seasons, do you think he was just putting on an act?
DT: "I think he genuinely felt that way at the time. He rejected Heaven, and he rejected Hell. So he started searching for a third path — a path that explores the complexity of what it really means to be human. And he wants to protect that, so that everyone can keep it. At least, that's how I understand it."
@GoodOmensDT If you look at that guy’s tweets, he is an absolute nut job. Timeline full of conspiracy theory BS and I’m not sure he knows which way is up. Wouldn’t consider his opinion to be worth bothering with.
It bears repeating today: the women celebrating the UK supreme court ruling do not speak for me. History shows that the rights of women and the rights of trans people will rise and fall together. My safety as a cis woman will never spring from the persecution of trans women.
Lastly I wanted to give a shout to the Hungarian Folktales series on youtube. Watch them with your kids! Watch them by yourself! The stories and animations are sublime, and will make your world more enchanted.
@CoolMilkScheme I’ve been able to register and pay for milk, but when I click on “click here to confirm registration” the page does not let me submit a password. Can that be fixed as well please?
Hi @CoolMilkScheme just to let you know, your website isn’t working at the moment. Please could you have a look? People need to sign in to the site to order and pay for school milk.
Many of you follow me for Mia, as you should, but you may not know that I was once a writer. Not terribly talented or insightful but honest, which is as much as I could control. Today someone went years back on my IG and found a post where I was promoting my book.
Today is Twelfth Night, the eve of the Epiphany. It's a time for festivities marking the end of the Twelve Days of Christmas, and the transition from midwinter into the new year: parties, king-cakes, fire rituals, and wassailing to waken the trees from their winter sleep.
