[Shortly after this conversation, Aziraphale decides to try out his new emoji skills to convey how pleased he is about Crowley's snaky little heart.]

[ What the frick frack snickety snack is the angel on about now. ]

what are you doing

are you "heart"ing me

why are you doing this

text

[bookshopped]

Trying out the emojis. I like them. They're fun.

And yes. I'm "heart"ing you. That's how it works, isn't it?

Also I met your new friend. Lovely young lady. She said you're going for tea.

[The delight is radiating right through the text. With a dash of smug.]

[goodtobebad]

oh

gorilla girl

very enthusiastic

she'll get herself into trouble

she insisted on the tea

[ Don't say it don't say it don't say it ]

[bookshopped]

She s that, yes. And she might. She also mentioned you offered to help get her out of it.

That's terribly...

[Nice. It's nice. He's thinking nice. But he'll be kind and instead say,]

...neighborly.

[goodtobebad]

don't go spreading it around

she's just a kid

nobody here

[ Okay, he has no idea how old she is, but she seems sort of young and naive and you know what a sucker he is for kids!!! ]

Action-ish

[So okay. Aziraphale lives in the same room as Crowley (since ceding his to the Antichrist) and Crowley was on the trip with him. Doesn't matter. The angel still found some time to slip off and nab a few things the demon is unaware of -- at least he hopes.

Either way in the very pretty basket (a distinctly tartan scarf providing the first layer and cushioning for the contents) Crowley will find a framed picture of the two of them (clearly taken candidly when they were seated at an outdoor cafe, where they both appear to be laughing about something, and which Aziraphale probably paid more than he should have for when the chance was presented to him by the industrious photographer) and a bottle of champagne that may be the precise sort they that night in the hotel when things finally came out.

The accompanying note is very brief.

'à toi, mon monde. - ton ange'

He's half sure he'll get scolded for being sappy but oh well. He is who he is.]

Hey
I talked with Mary yesterday
Or Lilith I guess. She told me everything.

[ He doesn't know if Crowley even noticed him leaving the house that same day.

After a good few seconds, a second message. ]

Told her about me too.

[goodtobebad]

[ Why. WHY. ]

Re: text;

[perfectlyhuman]

[ Because quid pro quo, of course. ]

She told me about herself so I told her about me
Its only fair

text;

[goodtobebad]

thats dangerous

Re: text;

[perfectlyhuman]

She won't tell anyone

[goodtobebad]

seems extremely unlikely

have i mentioned that demons are inherently untrustworthy?

text;

[cantgetanyworse]

Would it be terribly presumptuous of me to assume I could ask a favour of you?

text;

[goodtobebad]

nope

[ Jane why the fuck are you so polite. ]

what favor?

[cantgetanyworse]

[Because she's a lady.]

I think I'd like to learn to drive, and I'd very much appreciate having someone I trust 'show me the ropes', as it were.

Would you mind?

[goodtobebad]

sure i can show you the basics

[cantgetanyworse]

Oh, really?? That's so kind of you!

[goodtobebad]

nah its fun

[perfectlyhuman]

[perfectlyhuman]
