You do know that dithering around won't get my app written, don't you? I'm well aware that thousands of years of history is a little daunting, but I'm sure you can just fudge bits here and there. The Dark Ages were terribly boring, after all, and I can't say I got up to much.

Not to mention that they really do need me over there in Baedal. Now, I wouldn't say anything bad about their Twelve Point Divinity, I'm sure they're lovely gods, but they could clearly use a miracle or two from Up There.

I will miss London, though.

I'll pass on those too.

Isn't that luck?

[aprincipality]

I'm fairly certain everyone responsible for writing them was tone deaf.

Well, we can't exactly have everyone knowing an angel was responsible. Or a demon, in the case of bad luck.

[boomvox]

Apparently you guys all got eaten by some huge antimatter force where I come from.

What are you up to besides miracle-ing?

[aprincipality]

... That sounds thoroughly unpleasant. Do you know if being eaten by a huge antimatter force hurts?

Feeding the ducks, collecting more books and trying to remember to sell some, having lunch with Crowley when our schedules line up. It's all quite boring and wonderful. [boring is especially good after you recently avoided an apocalypse]

[boomvox]

Probably. If it makes you feel better, it's not just angels. [ IT'S PROBABLY HIM TOO /sad trombone. ]

Well. I guess the ducks'll be happy.

[aprincipality]

That really isn't much of a consolation.

Not the ones back home, Crowley will most likely drown them all without my good influence around.

[boomvox]

... No, I guess not.

Who the hell drowns ducks?

[aprincipality]

I do hope nothing similar happens in my world, one nigh apocalypse was quite enough.

You've sort of answered your own question there. Demons drown ducks, but Crowley isn't all that bad, he just forgets himself sometimes.

[boomvox]

Me too.

If I was a demon I'd be really embarrassed to drown ducks. That's kind of sad.

[aprincipality]

It is a bit disappointing, isn't it? Though I suppose I'd have rather him spent his time drowning ducks than inventing the iPod.

[boomvox]

What's wrong with iPods?

[aprincipality]

What isn't wrong with iPods? I can assure you that almost all new technology is the work of demons, with the intention of turning people from away from Him.

[boomvox]

Oh.

Well that's fine.

[aprincipality]

No it isn't. It's terribly disappointing when humans end up having to go Down There.

[boomvox]

Then why don't you exist in plain sight so people know it's real?

[aprincipality]

Well, that would-- [Aziraphale fusses with his coat for a bit] It's hardly my decision to make. It's part of His ineffable plan.

[boomvox]

Can't you choose to do something else?

[aprincipality]

Within reason, yes, but I'm sure the story of what happened to last rebellious angel is quite well known.

And I like my job.

[boomvox]

[ A scrutinizing look because... lol, slight issues with missionaries. But okay. ]

Well, that's not too bad I guess.

[aprincipality]

[What is that look for, Jae? Aziraphale is perfectly respectable]

I'm sure it will all work out fine in the end, even if us angels aren't allowed to reveal our presence.
