[ Aziraphale beams at him. ]

Then it's settled. Have you already had lunch?

[hell_on_wheels]

Ah ... not as such. Was busy, just a bit.

[heaven_on_paper]

[ He nods, having expected as much, and even a little pleased, because it means he can offer. ]

Shall we?

[hell_on_wheels]

Alright, since you insist.

[ grumbling but also a little pleased too. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

Where to?

[ He heads back out front, politely shooing customers out so he can lock up. ]

[hell_on_wheels]

Somewhere with an obscene amount of alcohol.

[ he puts his sunglasses back on again before stepping out where the customers are. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

Not the pub. At least, not the one on this block.

[hell_on_wheels]

Nah, the pubs'll be crowded this time of day anyway. Ritz?

[heaven_on_paper]

May as well.

[hell_on_wheels]

Lovely.

[ he waits for Aziraphale to finish locking up before stalking to his car just over the road. When Aziraphale steps into it, he'll immediately notice the foliage in the back seat. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

[ Well, Crowley did say he got the plants, so Aziraphale doesn't question it, just gets in the car. ]

[hell_on_wheels]

[ Crowley's quiet for the first few moments while they drive to the Ritz, the silence filled with the bentley's chosen song for the moment. he speaks up as they swerve around a pedestrian. ]

... Y'know this means Hell will have a renewed presence in London.

[heaven_on_paper]

Mind the road!

[ It's sort of perfunctory, though. He sighs. ]

... I know.

[hell_on_wheels]

I am minding it.

[ it sounds automatic and only a little snitty, a common response for a common complaint. ]

Think you should re-do some of your wards. Just in case.

[heaven_on_paper]

Mm. Wouldn't want any trouble. After lunch, then.

[hell_on_wheels]

[ he grunts his agreement before falling quiet for a few more moments. ]

... If I'm, uh ... y'know, staying there, should ... I put some up, too?

[heaven_on_paper]

Don't you think that might—draw attention?

[hell_on_wheels]

Yeeeah, probably right. And probably shouldn't mix occult and ethereal magics anyway.

[ but he somehow looks put out by this. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

[ Aziraphale glances at him a bit curiously. ]

I'll be thorough.

[hell_on_wheels]

[ he grumbles and "I know" while snapping to make a green light. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

[ Just Crowley things, he guesses. He decides to change the subject. ]

Did I tell you, I found a bargain deal on fire extinguishers in bulk?

[hell_on_wheels]

Oooh, did you? Gathered them all up then? At least one for each room?

[ asked as he pulls up to the Ritz, a space miraculously made available just now. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

Different kinds, too. Did you know there are different kinds?

[hell_on_wheels]

I didn't.

[ he raises his eyebrows at Aziraphale before climbing out of the car. ]

How many kinds are there anyway?

[heaven_on_paper]

[ he's in step with Crowley as they head towards the door of the Ritz. ]

Quite a few. Although they're apparently not all suited to put out—paper fires.

[ maybe this was a bad change of subject. thankfully they're at the restaurant and can focus on getting a table. ]
