Imagine spending thousands upon thousands of years being a demon, being the outcast, being the fallen, being the ‘bad guy’, being the one that everyone hates, and you still come around to unshackle an angel when he’s tied down, because even though you’ve fallen, you’ve also fallen in love, and you know that the angel would do the same for you, not even out of love, but because that’s what the angels do, that’s why they exist, they’re supposed to be the ones unshackling the damned and setting people free, and instead, after all of those millennia of being told that your very existence is wrong, you get a glimpse of the other side, and the first thing they do…is shackle the damned.
Everyone who talks about Crowley’s anger in this scene talks about it from the context that he loves Aziraphale and hated the fact that they would have put the angel through this, and I think that’s definitely the case, but I can also just imagine how apoplectic he must feel, knowing that he’s spent millennia wondering what would have happened if he hadn’t fallen, lamenting over the fact that he didn’t mean to fall, always addressing God as if She might be apt to give him another chance, only to have the curtain pulled back, revealing that the side of the angels isthe antithesis of his values…but in all the wrong ways.
No wonder he looks ready to reduce heaven to ash and brimstone.
This is a very valid point. He’s taking the realization that he’s more righteous than Heaven better than expected…
