I'm laughing way too much

'Neil Gaiman's favorite trope'

lmao I have a feeling it was unintentional at first XD

there is a good number though

yep

his m/f couples have no such thing, iirc

lmao

/gestures to the Stardust movie XD

it's kind of funny because in the original books the first two don't really exist as a slow burn at all

:3

the boys are depicted more as prepubescent children and Hob has a ton of women he dates/sleeps with

I mean hob still does but also yeah I gathered that the dead boys were more children... BUT I like what we got...

and Az and Crowely were written to be like brothers in the original novel

.... now THAT is not something I got from the novel.

it always tasted like ust to me

Definitely unintentional lmao that's what Neil said like in an interview or one of his tumblr posts iirc

not consciously intentional then, I guess.

it's just interesting how the shows have branched out in that regard

neither way is 'better', i just think it's interesting to compare them

definitely very interesting

I love these two goshdarn (Charles has entered hell)

Jenny is the best 'I didn't sign up for this' big sister

there was tumbl comment about how every show ends up having the Father Figure and in this case it's a goth lesbian butcher

"I don't care how old you are, GO TO BED" cracked me up for just that reason

yes
