Ahem! Well! [he is standing in front of a window again, light dazzling off his pure white wings and he is practically glowing]

Hello, everyone.

I admit times seem a little hard and we are inclined to be grumpy. That Dreamfinder is unfortunately missing again and that the townspeople aren't fond of us. I do believe that is less to do with us and more to do with --well-- times have been hard and Dreamfinder has been a bit concerned or was the last time I spoke -- Anyway, the important thing is! To keep our own spirits up and to be kind and understanding to one another as we may.

My last message I was a bit of--well a bit tetchy. So I'd like to apologize to anyone I got off on the wrong foot.

And especially perhaps to you, er, Beetlejuice. [what a name] I would most sincerely like to apologize to you for the horrible way I've treated you. Demon or not, you don't deserve such a hard time and that you tease others, well [it's just a reflection of your own insecurities really] no one is perfect.

Of course it is perfectly within your rights not to accept my extended hand of friendship and apology, but it is there for you whenever you wish it.

Not even an Angel is Perfect.

[and he beams beatifically, slants of light glinting around him as if a chorus might sing at any moment]

Oh, your wings are lovely. [It was the first thing out of her mouth and she immediately closed it for a moment.]

I mean. Hello! I'm Merlan Margaret O'Keefe. I think my mother would curse me if I ever forgot the Margaret, so, there it is. Ah, new faces are good.

And [Her wings flare a little in the background curling a little bit up and around her shoulders, vivid blues, cyans, indigos, all washed with iridescence.] well, I suppose I'm not sure what I am. Something vaguely angelic. Not quite Nephilim, so I've been assured.

I'm so sorry you were having a difficult time! That can't be too good for your own morale. Anyway, ah...wings. Mine aren't always out and before I even step foot in that library, I think I need some wing pointers. [Her nose scrunches a little.] I could ask Crowley but...in the interest of making some new friends, would you be alright if I got some tips, err, pointers from you?

Uh...

[He scratched a patch of moss on his cheek.]

Are you, uh, serious?

[He seems to think about it for a moment before nodding.]

Apology accepted.

[Eleanor beams at her friend.]

That was really well said, Aziraphale.

[this is the smile of a princess who saw her problem child bffff actually having a decent, productive conversation with someone AND her tetchy angel friend actually having a decent, productive conversation with someone at the same time. she's so happy for both of them]

Thanks, Aziraphale. I forgive you.

Also, for what it's worth ... I think if everything were perfect, we wouldn't have anything to do, and then it would all be really boring.

Wing. Tips. That was NOT intentional.
