I ALMOST FORGOT my favorite woobie Crowley factoid, which is kind of self-evident but didn't really become obvious to me until Gray Ark spelled it out -- of course we know what Crowley's goal is, technically, he wants to keep killing akuma so that Eliade's death won't have been pointless.

And in the Gray Ark book, it says "But somewhere along the way, his goal became to protect them instead." And it's next to that adorable fluffy panel in Crowley's memory of Allen and Lavi laughing and going, "Let's go, Crowley~" and rlkgjdlfjg cry.

Okay I'm really done (FOR NOW) this time.
