[Crowley appears on the Plane, bundled in a long, stylish black overcoat with leather gloves on his hands. He's standing in front of a church sign, of the sort you see as you drive past most churches these days. It looks as though he's putting the finishing touches on the lettering of the sign.]

[When he steps back, it becomes visible:]



[He brushes his gloves together, grinning.]

((ooc note: There is actually snow around the bottom of the sign instead of greenery. It's very snowy in London right now :3 ))

[>:D] O-oh...I'm sorry. Did I say something wrong?

[Just...staring. In horror.]

[contract_star]

Ah...I'm very sorry, sir.

Right then. You can stop this whenever you like, really.

[He seems to shake himself out a little. His expression is unreadable.]

It's surprising to you, but I lived as Li for years. Half the people on the Plane only knew Li. Some things happened and...Li died, I guess.

[Crowley pulls a cigarette from his jacket pocket]

Never thought I'd say this, but I think I prefer you this way.

[contract_star]

[Chuckles.] As if "Hei" is any more real than "Li." I just don't know anymore.

I suppose you'd better figure out which is which then, hadn't you? Before you disappear entirely.

[contract_star]

[Faint smile.] I've been figuring things out for a few months now. Anyway, at this point I think both of them are "me."

[Finally gets the cigarette lit and takes a deep drag off of it]

Yes, well. This has been an incredibly touching little heart-to-heart. Let's never do this again, shall we?

[contract_star]

My thoughts exactly. [He's not quite sure where some of that came from, actually. It's surprising enough that it's getting easier to talk about it.]
