on the possibility of having an AU version of himself

[not_that_crowley]

So, wait, duck, let's get this straight. After four effing years of complaining about your precious favorite game not taking hometown folks like myself, you find a game that will ...

... and you still want to twist me 'round and make me fit the setting because they need a bloody mechanic and you think that'd be funny. Why can't you just send me in as my damn self? ... Never mind that I don't need much changing, I don't care, I've heard all your reasons. I'm over two hundred years old, I know excuses when I see them. You're afraid, still, you think you spent so long out of the water that you forgot how to swim or something.

Janus is so much better at these speeches, can't you twist him around instead of me...

Okay, okay, you know what? Give it a go. See what you can come up with, and if I like the look of it, maybe I'll play along.

But only because you had the forethought to ask about my hair.

[Have an amused smirk, Crowley]

You know your pep talks leave a lot to be desired.

I said so, didn' I? Right there. He's better at it than me. Him or that ... that fossil bastard with the stick and the crazy daughter.

At least no one's turning you into a girl.

[Because that was totally a thing that happened.]

[not_that_crowley]

Ouch. Did they at least have the decency to leave you in pants, then?

[a pause] Then again, the kilt wasn't so bad, the one time.

[merlinian]

I — [Squints.] Yeah? I still had pants. Or she... still had pants...

[not_that_crowley]

Still a better day than it could've been, then. You could've been stuck re-enacting the bit from the Seven Year Itch.

[merlinian]

...yeah.

[Well that sure went over Dave's head.

Ah, college students~]
