[Joint post] Baked angels

[What started as a drunken dare has ended with Crowley and Aziraphale (the second) sitting next to the Christmas tree and giggling like a pair of schoolboys who've just turned loose the science teacher's frogs. A plate strewn with a few crumbs sits nearby.]

[Crowley is leaning back against Aziraphale, tie half undone and collar unbuttoned, a mostly empty bottle of cheap wine in one hand.] And then. And then. Do you remember, back in Athens? I interr- int'rupted your party and you...you— [pitches off into a fit of hysterical laughter]

[Aziraphale wipes his eyes under his glasses, sputtering. He's flushed, and there's a bit of a stain on one sleeve from what looks (and smells) like a spill of alcohol.] Oh He- Hev- That was a night I fear I'll never forget. Though, I didn't tell, never, I didn't tell you that, when their faces--you remember, when you came bursting through in that outfit, their faces--I nearabout had a heart attack from trying not, from laughing. From trying not to laugh.

[It takes a moment for Crowley to contain his laughter to the point where he's capable of speech again.] No no no. The best part—the best part is, I left the poor sod wand'rin' the streets. In Athens. At night. Next to naked, with fifty drachmas in his hands— [laughing again]

[And Az can't even respond; he sags against Crowley, eyes closed, laughing until he's gasping for air.]

[watches him, and smiles at the new bottle of wine]

Oh, brilliant!

Cheers!

[finds a handy corkscrew, uncorks and takes a swig then notices Crowley's face]

If that one's as awful as your face makes it seem, feel free to share this one.

I'm imagining it has to be, judging from your reaction.

[passes the bottle over]

I still don't think I ever got your name.

Right. Good to meet you.

[takes a swig of the wine, and looks at it surprised]

That was, well that was unexpected.

[looks back at Crowley]

Well, on Earth I guess I go by John Smith. I'm not really entirely sure how much I like it, but it's been in use for a while. So.

I don't really think I have a preference, one way or the other.
