voice, un: datura

[illegibly]

Turns out you were right. I owe you one.

You wouldn't happen to like cake, would you~?

[demonicmiracle]

[It takes him a second, because his memory isn't the best for things he doesn't deem as important, but he recognizes Hua Cheng's voice after a moment.]

M'not much for eating, but my husband loves cake. [Which means he'll accept cake as payment just to give to Aziraphale.] You and your god sorted it out, then?

[illegibly]

Yes, we did. It ah.

It turns out he thought I was in love with someone else, and we were both trying to keep from getting hurt.

[ Wait, does Crowley even want to hear these deets? Probably not. He doesn't realize they're both incredibly romantic demonic entities. ]

Anyway, I've been practicing making cakes. What's your husband's preferred flavor?

[demonicmiracle]

Well, I bet you two feel like proper idiots.

[This is why he doesn't have many friends, though he doesn't mean the comment unkindly.]

He's not all that fussy, really. [Not when it comes to cake, at least.] Coconut always goes down a treat, though.

[illegibly]

Coconut it is.

[ Crowley can't see this, but he's beaming. ]

Are either of you free for a delivery tomorrow?

[ Nothing to see here, Gwenhwyfar just casually reaching out to Crowley.

Everything is fine! ]

I am at my limit.

[ Or not. ]

[demonicmiracle]

[Uh oh.]

What's happened? Are you hurt?

[Normally, he might tease slightly about the lack of greeting, but he decides it can wait.]

[gwenhwyfar]

Not me.

[ Thankfully, but more importantly. ]

Some poor soul had the misfortune of crossing me while he was trying to eat a man.

[ You know, punching and strangling, all the good stuff. ]

I pushed myself.

[demonicmiracle]

Ah. Probably lucky you were there, for the bloke being eaten, at least. [Since he likely would've been eaten, otherwise.] It wasn't that big shadow beastie, was it?

[Crowley you can't use words like "beastie" during a serious conversation.]

[gwenhwyfar]

You mean the nearly-naked creature with wings wearing those gods awful short trousers?

[ She actually appreciates the bit of humor. ]

If so, then yes. He was biting into an unarmed man the time I came across him. I can't stand to see someone unarmed in harm's way.

[At some absurd hour, Crowley is the lucky recipient of...a photo of Nikolai. The angle suggests that he's taken it himself, and all things considered it's quite flattering for someone who's just discovering the art of selfies. The apparent centerpiece, judging by the slight turn of his head, is the little gold hoop adorning the helix of his ear.]

What do you think?

Does this make me more handsome? Or does it make me EXPONENTIALLY more handsome?

[demonicmiracle]

[Oh, it's his monster friend.]

I dunno, could be a bit more ostentatious if you ask me. Needs some sparkle.

[reznikolai]

[Has Nikolai made the connection that this A.J. Crowley fellow he's been messaging is one and the same with Anthony who helped him out the night the monster broke free? Nope. Is it possible he thought he was texting someone else? Maybe.]

Now now ostneetiousness must be done in moderation. I am a man of taste you know!

[demonicmiracle]

[That's all very valid of him, honestly.]

Think it defeats the purpose of being ostentatious if it's in moderation

Are you? Could've fooled me 🤔

[reznikolai]

Hm you're right! Maybe panache is what I'm thinking... I do love panache.

Ouch! I am a very tasty man!

Tasteful

[afraidtofall]

[Does it matter that he is only one room away from Crowley? No. Nor that he could just as easily do this telepathically. It hasn't occurred to him. Shh.]

Guess what?

[His most chipper tone.]

[demonicmiracle]

[While he could just go find Aziraphale, he choose to indulge whatever this is.]

You're pregnant?

[afraidtofall]

You're not even trying.

[Amazing how quickly he can shift from chipper to put out.]

[demonicmiracle]

With this place? Anything's possible.

[Unfortunately for Aziraphale, Crowley has too much fun riling him up.]

Have you turned into a sexy monster again?

[afraidtofall]

Well, let's hope not that!

[Stuff of nightmares, that thought.]

No. It's better than that.

[gwenhwyfar]

[ Gwenhwyfar is anxious...! But what else is new.

It's a good kind of anxious. She claps her hands together as she speaks. ]

I think... I think one of my own kind is here. Sort of.

[demonicmiracle]

Hullo, Gwenhwyfar.

[A little wryly said; no one has manners. Which is bold for him to be wry about considering he also doesn't have manners.]

Is this a good thing?

[gwenhwyfar]

Uh.

[ It takes a moment to register. ]

Nos da.

[ Now she gets it! ]

Well. I consider it a good thing, despite the strange circumstances around this man.

[demonicmiracle]

Diolch.

[It's been a little while since he busted out the Old Welsh, but the good thing about being a demon is that languages are about as real as gender.]

Alright, we'll take it as a win. What's the 'sort of' mean? Is he not from your world?

[gwenhwyfar]

Oh, no, he is not from my world. Thankfully.

[ This "Vergil" guy reminds her too much of someone she used to be friends with. ANYWAY. ]

"Sort of" in the sense that this half-blood decided that... his human self was so weak, he somehow managed to split it from his being. Like a familiar or an elemental, I suppose. That's what he would be.
