[ Why is the angel so British. Are all angels British?

That does not seem right.

The boxty is done in exactly twenty minutes and by the time Aziraphale comes back there will be a plate waiting for him. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

It smells delightful!

[unfriendlygreen]

Are all angels British?

[heaven_on_paper]

What? Oh, goodness, no. Nor am I, really, except by habit.

[unfriendlygreen]

Anything else would be preferable.

[ he says, sounding British. ]

[heaven_on_paper]

[ He ignores this remark, other than making a slight "Why do you have to be rude?" face, in favour of taking a bite of food. ]

This really is very good.

[unfriendlygreen]

Thank you. Irish cuisine is not particularly complicated.

[heaven_on_paper]

And I see you've renovated.

[unfriendlygreen]

I can turn it back when I leave if it bothers you.

[heaven_on_paper]

No, no, don't bother.

[unfriendlygreen]

If you have no magic, what can you do?

[heaven_on_paper]

Let's not talk shop, shall we?

[unfriendlygreen]

Why not? Worried you'll be scolded?

[heaven_on_paper]

...

[ A little exasperated. ]

My dear boy, do you want heaven's attention to be called to this shop? I am attempting to help keep a low profile from those who might—trigger your allergy.

[unfriendlygreen]

[ He looks vaguely offended, then outright amused at being called 'boy' ]

Do they take notice if you mention being an angel? If they are omniscient would they not have taken notice of my arrival?

[heaven_on_paper]

They may take notice if I perform what they might choose to categorize as—"frivolous miracles." Under ordinary circumstances, I wouldn't be quite so chary with minor magic, but I am trying, for your sake, to be discreet.

[unfriendlygreen]

I only asked what you can do, I was not seeking a demonstration. In fact, I would ask you to refrain from any.

[heaven_on_paper]

You don't need a catalogue, either.

[unfriendlygreen]

But I would like to.

[heaven_on_paper]

You'll have to live with the disappointment, I'm afraid.

[unfriendlygreen]

I would not have imagined you'd be poor hosts, and yet.

[heaven_on_paper]

Terribly sorry.

[ He isn't sorry at all. ]

[unfriendlygreen]

If I am imposing, I can copy the book and be on my way.

[heaven_on_paper]

[ He waves a hand. ]

You're welcome to stay.

[ That doesn't mean he's going to be baited into discussing angel powers with some random half demon guy from another dimension?? ]

But surely we can come up with some more congenial topic of discussion.

[unfriendlygreen]

Such as?
