Summary
Uriel clears her throat, clandestinely refilling her glass.
"I never thought I'd see the day," she says. "Not that it's not sweet and all, but..."
"But what?" Aziraphale prompts, not liking the tilt of her frown.
Uriel flicks ash on the pavement. "I don't know what you see in him. Nice for what he is, yes, absolutely. You've got me there. He didn't so much Fall as trip and make an arse of himself, and part of him's been trying to make up for it ever since. You, though, you've got a lot to answer for. Is that what it is? He keeps you respectable?"
Aziraphale experiences a flash of genuine anger, but quells it as swiftly as he can.
Crowley wrapped around him. Crowley's startled laughter at the brush of Aziraphale's fingers behind his knee. Crowley's voice, low and drowsy, asking if Aziraphale thinks everything is going to be all right. Telling him yes, touching his hair. Holding him.
"He reminds me," Aziraphale tells her calmly, "of what matters."
