*screams* you fiend! this is absolutely stunning and it hurts and I love it

Meinir Rhos

I think the last two panels are out of order!

Brahms

Pssst one is out of order…

Brahms

These are so so GORGEOUS my lovely friend!

sagesburning69

I made it wavy like your hair I love it

Marie

Okay, I really dig that you discovered the origin story of the mark on Crowley. That's now my headcanon and I love it. Gosh, the tenderness you worked into this between Aziraphale and the Angel-That-Will-Be-Crowley. Lovely!!

Caroline

Aziraphale is such a sweet baby angel and Lucifer is such a bastard, and I can’t stand what he did to the Starmaker. And Aziraphale and the Starmaker are so sweet together, them and their adorable little snek, and I know it can’t end well… *I am so invested* and *this is so gorgeous*

Egg

😭😭😭😭😭😭 i’m just going to stop asking why and let this all wash over me…

Hanne

I love this !

PSYgoth13

OH GOODNESS I WANNA CRY AND GO ON A RAMPAGE KCIDSHDFB unfortunately the abusive behavior from Lucifer is...recognizable for me and it makes my heart hurt for Crowley, you continue to outdo yourself Gleafer! ❤️

De Bergerac

Oh mama. I’m ready to get hurt once more.

Alwysthere42

❤️‍🔥 i honestly can’t choose a favorite from all your storylines and art!! This is an especially good blend of pain and softness though, and your ideas are GORGEOUS (snake origin and significance, the toxic Lucifer relationship)!! Very NNNGHH. Bravo 👏 💋🕊️🥂🐍

Casey Swann

Wow. I love the bird thing and how Lucifer has this horrible edge to him though he’s so beautiful. I love the snake and how they’re marveling over it like children. I love that you call him Starmaker. There’s so much world in this story already. I want to expand on it!

Venturous

Oh! Darlings, watch out! Get away from them, you fiend! What a collision of unbearable sweetness and dread.😰

Lady_Pangolin

I love this so much, I hope you'll keep on drawing this serie !

Imaanyi

This is so heartbreaking even though it's just the beginning. How vulnerable both Crowley and Aziraphale are here...and how happy. Can you hear my heart? *shatter* 💔

A.Z.Hampton

Ahhhh I missed a bunch of these on GOAD! This is fantastic!

DARLENE S

Tears tears everywhere 😭

Dante

I’m going to VOMIT oh my god. Aziraphale creating things! For Crowley! You’re brain is ineffable.

Danee

I have such rage and hate for Lucifer.

Hazel

Oh fuck, this might kill me... I'm genuinely so terrified of Lucifer! Crowley's kindness makes me want to cry, and Aziraphale being beaten down but still creating, specifically for Crowley 😭😭😭

Morag

So hurt...

Ceri

I can tell this is going to hurt like hell and I am totally here for it! Love it!! Xx

Jertta Österlund

I love IT. Hurts good but it's also so pretty and cute

IneffablyRuined

I said it before and I'll say it again. You make even the fluff hurt!! Agghhhh I can't wait for more.

Kotias Camorra

Gleafer. I WILL get revenge for this.

Ashfae

Oh GOSH. I'd seen parts of this but in order, ohhh....oh wow. Ahhhh.

Marie Curious

So much of this is going to be my headcanon forever. It's so beautiful and heart crushing, and elating and devastating!

Monica Mitchell

This is gut wrenching. And I love it. So much. 😍

Tardisbird

I live how you draw heaven in a more minimalist style, it looks really cool! I saw the first panel on GOAD and completely lost my shit, it's so intense and so good!!

clara moore

This is so gorgeous ❤️ and I love the narrative so so much - your brain is just delightful

Khlara

This is really awesome

Shel

i’m going to throw up /pos

Julie

So no one's gonna talk about *what* bird Azi just created? I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE, YOU MAGNIFICENT BEAST.

bildaddybaddie

OK now I want to see Lucifer hit by a car like Metatron 😭

liz.

Oh.

HayleyDBZ

"i made it wavy... like your hair!" IM OFFING MYSELF THEYRE SO CUTE I COULD ACTUALLY DIE

HayleyDBZ

this plot is so incredibly interesting. ugh lucifer. the angst. it's so good

Crystal Silhouette

Oh, precious angels! I love this so much. Sweet, caring boys. Thank you, Crowley! Thank you, Zira! (Not you, Lucifer!) Thank you, Gleafer!!

Megh

woah 🫢

Depraved Dame

Screaming and crying and unhealthily OBSESSED

KellyA

I didnt think I wanted to read this angst but finally gave in and now I'm obsessed

Xpouii

God they’re all so beautiful! The flow of the hair and the tears and their eyes my lord this series is just heartbreaking and gorgeous as fuck. I am HOOKED

Mella26

It really hurt to see Azi cry because of Lucifer… and what he did to Crowley later!!! 😢😢😢 He’s just the worst!

Little

Incredible so far. I love Lucifer as beautiful, possessive, and vengeful. You can see the fall anyway, brilliant. And the nightingale and snake! My poor heart!

BlackOfJuly .

Lucifer was the first a$$hole before a$$holes were even invented. I love this so much!! Curious, kind Crowley, brave, compassionate Aziraphale, brightened up the day after a harrowing visit to the dentist. SIGH!!

Calculated

The wee bird (and that amazing snake) and Crowley being so sweet with it melted me, you made tiny beautiful animals part of their love language ❤️

Yves Riba

Amazing comic! I’m curious, how long does it take you to create this pages? You’re so prolific! ❤️

JP

OMG, the beginning of this story touched my heart! Please, don't stop, I want to know more!

Poseyfae

Omg the idea that Crowley's snake form started from Aziraphale is too much! I love it!

howdidigethere

Lil Lulu is so mean!!!! Protect the snake, Azi!!

Cosette

more more more i need more 😩 it’s deliciously painful

LoonyMoony

Ugh I love this so much. You feed us like kings!

Jade Valentine

Aziraphale made snakes for Crowley. T_T I AM NOT OKAY.

Tygerlily

This is just…everything. Cute little innocent baby angels 😭

Shevyce

Wait I only saw the first part on ig, I’m only just seeing this?!?! I need to know what else happens!

Katchooie

This is really beautiful Gleafer. Love the little snake gift. Love your wily gorgeous imagination.

Анастасія

Will this story have another ending without witches?) I like them a lot. But this first picture (as for me) asks about some angst ending

Gleafer

Oh Crowley’s Coven was just a side quest to smooooooth out the angst. It’s not part of the story

dotfuls

HELP THIS IS AMAZING

NanaCreamTart

OH GOD 。⁠:゚⁠(⁠;⁠´⁠∩⁠`⁠;⁠)゚⁠:⁠。

fiddlegoblin

oh no... my heart 💔 why would you do this to us? I thought today was supposed to be TWO TURTLEDOVES!

EmJab

Critical hit!! 😭💔

Marie

The way you go back and forth between the brutal panels and the tender panels is just agonizing. Poor sweet Aziraphale. And poor angel-Crowley. What a heartache. :(

OkamiYumee

I'm dying... my heart... but I can't stop! Argh why are you so good at this? I want more. I NEED MORE OF THIS!

Ring

It’s heartbreaking and beautiful and sexy all at the same time. I love it

SpaceGiraffe

"Or my love will rip you apart" 😭😭😭

Danee

Still breaks my heart. Beautiful workmanship! *claps*

Tris

Ow my heart I didn't need that

HayleyDBZ

oh yeah im starting my day with a sob

Ashfae

AUGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHHH

Crystal Silhouette

Nyooo.. I didn't need anything to smile about today. That's cool. Not about their giggles. Or their smooch. Or their happy little found moments. No. No I'm good. Poop on smiles.

Xpouii

HOLY SHIT OKAY this got WOW??? So many layers! So many teeeeears!!

DARLENE S

Cause of death: Severe dehydration from excessive crying

Anna Bird

oh my loves 😭

Tigerowl

This is so good in so many painful ways. You’re bringing out my masochistic tendencies. I’m here for it. Green all the way.

Hanne

STOP MY HEART

howdidigethere

Oh no, oh little doves, noooo!!!!! 😭

Hazel

Oh my god, Gleafer!!!! I thought it was Lucifer disguised as Crowley somehow (and was waiting for him to crush the snake as a message), but that was even more heartbreaking!!! Crowley having to say those things??? He was looking at the snake to steel himself for what he had to do 😭 And they were in love 😭😭😭

Hazel

Also, the "Or my love will tear you apart" felt like very deliberate phrasing and it hurts my soul! Not Lucifer as his love, Crowley's actual love would cause Aziraphale's destruction and he can't abide by it 😭😭😭

Tardisbird

So beautiful and so devastating!! 😰

Morag

💔

dotfuls

The emotions! Lucifer what did you doooo

Meghan

Ouch. My feelings 🥺

liz.

Jeeezus. Oh my heart.

CousinSerena

Driving his sweet little angel away to protect him, but Aziraphale doesn’t understand 😭😭😭😭😭

Singlest_Pringle

Omg I love it when my tears season my morning coffee, what a nice flavor (THIS IS AMAZING THANK YOU FOR BLESSING US)

Poseyfae

Oh Crowley! His poor sweet heart!

Zee

You MONSTER! I adore it.😉 Hurt so good!

Emily

Instant KO. Not ever going to recover from Crowley and the Starmaker holding Aziraphale by the jaw the same way in 1 and 12

OGNarwhalz

*Darth Vader pose* NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

flashbastards

“little angel” 😭😭😭😭

shirts.no.skirts

*frantic search for tissues* WHAT IF I CRIED HUH?? WHAT IF?? 😭😭😭

Jertta Österlund

NOOOOOOOO!!!! AGONYYYYYY!! I knew Crowley wouldn't say that to his Angel and mean it😭😭

Jayde

I didn’t need this 😭😭😭😭😭

pie_irl

I can't believe you've done this

CraftyGirlAlley

Oh my god. Pardon me while I drown in my tears

Jade Valentine

I was sorely tempted to write a fic on this with just the initial pages BUT NOW??? hoooboy.

coconfetti

Insane how enthralling and engrossing this comic has been. I love it so much. Was that blood on Lucifer's fist in the page where he's standing behind Aziraphale and Crowley? Did he not confront them then, or...? When Crowley says "before it tears you apart", I wonder if that alludes to Lucifer being willing to actually tear Aziraphale apart...gosh! Is this the last they see of each other before the fall, and the garden?

Soggyfritter

SHUT UP I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING

Meinir Rhos

TRUE LOVE NEVER DIES I might though. Thanks.

Gleafer

SHUT UP BECAUSE IM DEFINITELY CRYING AND I DREW IT! *talk about punching yourself in the Crotch!

NanaCreamTart

YES! GOD DAMN IT THIS WAS BEAUTIFUL! ╰⁠(⁠*⁠´⁠︶⁠`⁠*⁠)⁠╯

ohsoldier

WHAT THE FUCK??? THIS IS THE BEST??? THING I"VE SEEN???? HOLY FUCK??? SHIT??

Hazel

Oh my god, I'm actually crying - poor Crowley, holy shit, and poor Aziraphale holding on to that for SO long!!! Lucifer is truly terrifying in this, it's horrifying, and Michael and Gabriel were also so sinister. This is a MASTERFUL comic and I'm broken!

Egg

Sobbing. Uncontrollably sobbing

Maloni

You broke me and put me together and I think my heart has thawed and can love again now. This was dreadfully beautiful.

Marie

i am wrecked...... Aziraphale's mark all along. This is just exquisite and crushing and gorgeous

Erika

This is masterful. Literally the greatest backstory/explanation/anything I’ve seen in this fandom… nothing canon could do can top this. Stunning.

Dáša Čechová

well, fuuuuuck it's too early for so many tears! this was so beautiful, such a great story!

Julie

I am totally fine and not curled up with my Dr Who bear, weeping and messy. I am none of those things. I am fine. I AM FINNNNEEE *sob*

Bk Alba

ESTOY LLORANDO MUY FUERTE!!! QUE HERMOSOOOO 😭😭😭💖💖🛐🛐🛐

Dante

I’m crying BLOOD

catartkd

Just reread all of this from start to finish. The implications are starting to sink in. I love that you kept Aziraphale as a strong, kind protector and that what he did was for Crowley's sake. Beautiful story 🥹❤️

Jayde

AHHHH Jesus fucking Christ. I’m so glad I’m only on my first sip of my first glass of wine for the night because I’m in TEARS! Streaming down my cheeks. Could you imagine if I was drunk? Oh boy.

Blackdraumdancer

Oh, this is such a fantastic story arc! Tragic and beautiful, both of them trying to protect each other 😭💜 Beautiful art and beautiful story. Thank you. You slayed us all 😵

OGNarwhalz

GAAAAAAAHHH, I CAN'T EVEN WORDS PROPERLY! GLEAFER!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!! *foams at mouth* Please take my money--I would gladly buy a printed comic book of your stuff.

De Bergerac

Oh my. You are the best.

Lady_today

This was so beautiful. Extremely painful, but also wonderful!

MxTHRTN

GLEAFER! You have outdone yourself. This is a masterpiece. You are an excellent storyteller. Thank you for sharing this with us, you deserve every euro I spent on you

Tardisbird

Wow. Just... Wow. There are no other words. Simply amazing art and the feels at the end rang true, oh my god well done!!

Danee

Lol. You weren't joking. Tissues were needed. Thank you. That was beautiful. If this becomes a booklet or part of a grander book of your comics, id buy it. I dont have much but id buy it.

Mishter Goose

...... No words only 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️

kaetchen194

I love your story! Absolutely amazing. Thank you so much ❤️

Tris

Aaaah omg feelings. This was so good omg. Beautiful and painful

sparksearcher

It's cool it's cool. I love crying first thing in the morning 😭

min

At this point I’ll be upset when Crowley’s fall is shown in season 3 cus it won’t be “gleafer canon compliant”

PSYgoth13

I'm not crying you're crying

ACE

My heart is full. Perfection!

Amanda B Cook

What a beautiful way to show them pre-fall. Thank you for this!

Shadowfang

Omg I'm actually fucking crying 😭😭 The way you evoke emotion is incredible! The expressions!!!! I am undone..

Poseyfae

You win the angst war in my book. 😭

Bingo

Oh my God I'm so relieved it had a happy (even if tearful) ending. Sobbing into my cornflakes rn 😭

Marie Curious

I'm in so much love with this series!!!

Cherry🍒

This is absolutely beautiful! 😭

Sophie

So in love with this

Camryn Porter

OH my gosh. The absolute artistry and story, I can't. Crying on my painting final right now. Fabulous story!! Thanks for giving it a happy ending

Shevyce

The absolute PAIN of this

Miranda Bumstead

Jfc 9am is too early to have my heart ripped to shreds

shirts.no.skirts

One of my favourites of yours, this comic was so well written and drawn- incredible 😭😭🙏✨

Anat

I love this!!! The paaain! Is it possible to buy this on Gumroad or something??

dotfuls

now i don't even need season 3

Katchooie

I would really love a physical copy of this. Not sure if that's possible

Marie Curious

I can't stop thinking about this!! It's burrowed itself in my brain and taken up permanent residence.

Ruby Gold

What a story! Lucifer is truly menacing, and so are Michael and Gabriel. Oh how much they love each other to do the ultimate sacrifice for each other. It's a masterpiece

Manon Pief

such a perfect angst

LibraEarth

Slow clap... 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

Ashfae

ARIHAOEIHAIOHAIOHVAE HOW DID THIS JUST KEEP GETTING ANGISTER AUUGHGHGHGHGH

Savaial Addams

Gut-wrenchingly beautiful, every last panel and stroke.

ElysiumLeo

Oh my goodness. I didn't realize this was up here. I saw only saw a couple panels on the GOAD reddit, so i missed the entire story. This is so heartbreaking and beautiful! Aziraphale made Crowley HIS SNAKE to protect him! And Crowley fell to save Azi! Why am I not normal about these two beautiful idiots!!! 😭 stunning comic I can't handle the beauty!!

Turbulent Food

This is painfully amazing and the new canon for all time. Wooooooow.

CrazyD

The aaaaaaangst! I love it

KaeRaeSketches

The opening scene!! Little creator angel, AUGH, MY SOUL!! 😭💜😭💜

NFC

Ooooo why am I like this, clutching my heart and crying to drown myself 🥹

Elenthya

Hey, I know this comics is quite an "old" one, but let me be clear, I LOVE IT and it's my favorite ever among all your comics. The Starmaker is gorgeous and adorable and his sacrifice still makes me cry each time i read this story. Aziraphale is kind and gentle and smart but OW he is so cool and powerful and so brave when he has to help and protect the Starmaker. Lucifer is a beautiful bastard and I only like him because he is why a so beautiful and canon-acurate story exists. So, thank you so much for this piece of art. I can't imagine their backstory in a other way now, your version is perfect.

Lolalu16

Sometimes the hurt is even better than the smut!

Logan LaCapria

Please please let me know if/where you have prints for sale. Crossed fingers you will release a collection.

WildeThyme

So much pain! The snake as Aziraphale's mark is such an interesting turn, I love it <3

Bonnie Bergmann

Holy heck. I was not prepared for all this from an unsuspecting post on a Friday night. You are AMAZING

Ash

Signed up for the smut, stayed for the incredible storytelling🥲

Cyn

this was beautiful, it let me with some pain in my chest 😭💕

fuzzycheetah

Yeah…I didn’t need my heart anyways 😭💔 This was absolutely gorgeous ❤️

Marie Curious

Over a year later, this still makes me weep...

Grey

Ouch

Jess Romeo

Ok, that made me emotional. Sincerely.

golden

Why is this the first time i’m seeing this?? Oh lord i love it. You are brilliant

StrangersTellMeStuff

This is AMAZING. What an emotional ride! And the thought of Aziraphale hiding and protecting Crowley in hell… wow.

JaadaMae

Gleafer!! Ugh I can’t sleep and my heart has been ripped out at 4 in the morning!! It’s the same reason why I had to stop reading the TSATO series by our amazing writers. I can’t handle my heart being crushed in my escape fantasies, life sucks too much as it is. Imma go color some of your fluffier coloring pages and try to sleep 💜😭

blackthorn_roses

I love it, I love it so much! Why did it take me so long to get your patreon 🤦‍♀️
