That's not really a thing that happens, is it?

Well that's alright then! I feel better already. Oh I know that, only idiots give them bread!

Do you like to feed the ducks, Mr. Fell?

s2 spoilers I guess!

[comfortably]

Oh, I haven't for awhile now. Busy, you know! With work. And everything. No ducks in Heaven, so they say!

[inspector_constable]

Right! Of course! Never heard that one but it's true. There's so much they have on Earth that they don't have in Heaven. Books, coffee, music... Aside from The Sound of Music, of course.

Do you miss it? All these things?

[comfortably]

A little bit. There's a lot I miss about Earth. But I'm glad you're getting to enjoy it!

[inspector_constable]

I'm enjoying it very much so far, especially the books! All the people have been so curious about them since you've gone, it's a shame I have to tell them to piss off.

[comfortably]

You're telling them to -- excuse me?

Is that something Crowley put you up to?

[inspector_constable]

Piss off? Am I using it wrong?

Yes! Before he left for good he gave me all sorts of instructions on how to run the bookshop, it was most helpful!

[comfortably]

Well, it's uh, sort of a grumpy thing to say to someone.

[ So it makes sense why Crowley would say it. ]

[inspector_constable]

Oh. That explains all the dirty looks. Why would Mr. Crowley tell me to say that then? Was he trying to get me into trouble, do you think?

[comfortably]

I rather think he just likes to do things his way, and he thinks everyone else should, too. You can tell everyone that I've taken a new position, and that I miss the neighborhood quite terribly.

[inspector_constable]

I see. Then I shall disregard what he's told me to say and tell them exactly what you say. You're the one I'm meant to listen to after all, Supreme Archangel Aziraphale.

[comfortably]

Oh, there's no need for that, Muriel. I'm still the same as I ever was.
