[dictated]



Fuck, I....


That was bad....


I--


[another ragged breath]


I need to get out of here....

[Crowley]

I'm going out for a while...do you wanna come along, or are you okay here?

Going out?

[h-townshend.livejournal.com]

I need some fresh air or something. Just a walk outside for a while.

You don't have to if you don't want to.

[gone-native.livejournal.com]

Alright.

It's not too cold out yet.

[h-townshend.livejournal.com]

[Henry moves over and picks the snake up, not doing much more than just draping him over an arm so that Crowley can figure out how he wants to situate himself]

If it starts to get too cold for you just tell me, you can curl up in my shirt and I'll bring you back.

[gone-native.livejournal.com]

[and Crowley moves his way up to lay along Henry's shoulders, and by his neck]

Sounds like a deal.

I haven't really gotten out at all lately anyway.

[Henry reaches up and makes sure his collar is in place, so Crowley's scales don't scratch across his numbers]

[a small smile]

Didn't you hear? The rest of the castle decided it was in everyone's interest that I keep you as far away from any sort of tree, fruit or otherwise, as physically possible.

[he moves to the door and out into the hallway]

But I think just this once we can make an exception~

[gone-native.livejournal.com]

[if snakes could snort, it would go here. it's kind of a short hiss as it is]

I think it's a little too late for this place anyway.

If anyone was stationed here, they could just sit back, watch, and take notes to send to the guys downstairs.

That's about what I did for Earth most of the time anyway, following the fruit bit.

[the sound of footsteps, and eventually the door to the stairwell]

I'm surprised they actually made you work, after that. You'd think with credentials like that you could just kick back and enjoy the rest of eternity at your leisure.

Maybe with a little umbrella drink, even.

[a snaky sound of amusement? >>]


The world was still pretty new then, things were happening, people were moving.

It figures that both sides would want a hand in it all.

... Umbrella drinks, Henry?

[h-townshend.livejournal.com]

[footsteps, moving down the stairs]

[a chuckle]

Or a glass of wine in your case, I suppose. A beach and an umbrella drink just sounded nice, all of the sudden. Maybe out in Hawaii or somewhere in the Caribbean.

You probably got to travel a lot though, didn't you?

[gone-native.livejournal.com]

Ask the castle for a beach~


Usually, yeah.

London was just were we - the angel and I - tended to stick around the most.

[h-townshend.livejournal.com]

Yeah...do you miss him? I mean, we didn't see very much of him while he was here, but it was someone else to talk to--

[a pause in the footsteps]

You really think it'd give us a beach?

[gone-native.livejournal.com]

I'll see him again eventually.

[snake!Crowley looking up at Henry directly]

Maybe?
