Summary
“But Orsino’s an arsehole!”
If they’d been sitting in the galleries, Aziraphale would have slid down out of sight to avoid the hundreds of pairs of eyes that were turned towards them. But today he and Crowley were groundlings, there was no seat to hide under, and instead there was a murmur of amusement, irritation, and, increasingly, agreement.
“Come on, Cesario!” shouted Crowley at the stage, “you’re better than him! He’s a moping, sadistic posh git who can’t even woo properly. You’re the real deal, boy, you know, it, she knows it, you all know it.”

A small and self-indulgent little story that I wrote today as my 41st birthday present to myself. Crowley's opinion of the end of "Twelfth Night" is one I've shared for around half my life, so. ;-)
Marked "Teen and Up" for a bit of swearing and some allusions to what a terrible person Orsino is, but probably some below that age would be fine; use your judgement. :)

Bookmark Notes:
Crowley and Aziraphale attend Twelfth Night, and Crowley start heckling the actors. He wants Viola/Cessario to end up with Olivia. Aziraphale starts a chant, "Marry Olivia", and Shakespeare relents, giving the cue to change the ending for one night.
Shakespeare reflects on the social morays of the time and how he can't really write what he wants, but blames this night's work on Crowley and Fell. Later the two of them discuss REAL love, and which of them should take credit for "fomenting" the happy ending. -
