Welcome to the official Queerly Beloved Good Omens Discussion Post! Here, you can discuss all things Good Omens: The book, the audiobook, the radio play, the in-progress Kickstarter for the graphic novel, and everything related to the TV show, seasons one and two. I imagine that the TV show in particular will be on everyone's mind, as the second season was just released two weeks ago, and people are still watching. As such, please be aware that there will be spoilers for all of it, so if you wish to remain unspoiled, this is probably not the post for you.

Please do your best to keep discussion peaceful! Remember that no representation is going to work for everyone; a form of representation that one person finds healing, another person might find harmful, and vice versa. This is a great opportunity to learn other perspectives on various elements of the various incarnations of Good Omens. While they may not change how you feel about the pieces in question, you may at least understand why someone else finds them helpful or hurtful.

As a last note, Neil Gaiman has confirmed that if Amazon doesn't renew the show for a third season, he is prepared to write it as a novel, so the ending of the story that he and the late Sir Terry Pratchett had planned will be released someday, in one form or another. (He also reports that the closed captions have been fixed for Season 2, so if you've been holding off on watching because you need them, you should be good to go!)

That's all I have to say for now; have at it!

The list of explicitly queer characters in Miraculous Ladybug now numbers, I believe, six. Show creator Thomas Astruc said on Twitter ages ago that Rose and Juleka are dating; he also said ages ago Nathaniel and Marc are dating, and confirmed the tweet from a genderfluid friend of his that Marc, being based on that friend, is genderfluid; and earlier today he tweeted that Max is ace and Alix is aro.

This revelation surprises approximately no one.

Summary:

He doesn't know what happens. One minute he's struggling against the leash spell, the next he's tripping on his own momentum as the magic suddenly snaps, as he tastes freedom for the first time in- in ever, probably.

Adrien doesn't stop long enough to think about where he's going or why. He just bolts.

(Marinette's spell goes wildly off-target, but it's a stroke of luck for everyone involved that it does).

Phew, okay! I've got our community tags up. Or, well, as many as I can think of, at any rate. I'm sure there's a bunch I missed, and fandom tags in particular I'll have to add as we go.

Anyone who wants to is welcome to look over the tag list and request that I add something to it, especially if it's something I missed. This was just everything I could come up with off the top of my head, and while it covers a lot of stuff, I know I'm not perfect and didn't think of everything or everyone. Please also let me know if you spot any spelling mistakes or typos; I'm still not entirely used to the keyboard on my new laptop, which will account for some slipups, but definitely not all of them.

Let's see here, what else. Oh! CW is short for Content Warning, and warns for types of content that people might not want to deal with or, in the case of NSFW (literally: Not Safe For Work), is the type of thing they might get in trouble for having a record of on a work computer. Media is for reviews and shoutouts about various forms of media that have representation of us, good and bad. Everything else should be fairly self-explanatory, I think.

Since Dreamwidth has a tag limit of 1000 for free accounts (1500 for paid, 2000 for premium paid), there may come a time when I have to combine some lesser-used tags in order to preserve some more-used tags. We've still got close to 900 tags to go before reaching the free account limit, though, so I'm pretty sure we'll be okay for a while.

Thanks to everyone who's joined so far, and if you have any feedback, I would be very interested in it!

Edit: It looks like I have tags hidden somehow at the moment? Lemme go take a look around, see how I need to fix that.

Edit 2: Apparently all unused tags were marked as "private" in the tag management thing. There's probably a better way to fix that, but it's late and I'm tired, so my current workaround is: Literally tag this post with every single tag available. (For the record, I tried doing that and then untagging everything, but the tags went right back to being private, so that shortcut is a no-go.)
