There's some holiday or something on the 25th of one of the months

[itsjustafruit]

Ssso, this is cute. No need to bother with shoes today.

A.Z., you might want to be sssure your rabbit is put away.

There's no shame in being a snake, I say. I know that people don't like the whole fact that we just seem to be nothing but devouring mawsss or phallic symbols, but it's not like we designed snakes that way.

I'd better be able to

he's not laughing at you, rly.

[mr_phale]

You wouldn't really eat my rabbit.

Lying's a sin, Aziraphale

[itsjustafruit]

What do you think?

But hurting someone's feelings is cruel so it balances. It's an ineffable thing, trust me.

[mr_phale]

I think you can't slither up the table to its hutch, so it's a moot point.

But you wouldn't, anyway. You're too much of an epicure.

Bah, ineffability

[itsjustafruit]

Have you forgotten that I can climb trees?

And your rabbit is well-tended and plump. Perfect for these taste buds.

[mr_phale]

The legs of the table are rather smoother than a tree, though. No traction.

And keep in mind, that rabbit's so jumpy it might bite you.

[itsjustafruit]

Maybe if it didn't keep getting shoved in an airlessss hat.

Just keep it in its hutch.

[mr_phale]

It has plenty of air, it just doesn't like the lights. Yes. That's it.

Nonetheless, I won't tempt you.

[itsjustafruit]

...

Mind that.

I've already got enough trouble. There are two... TWO Lucifers in the City.

[mr_phale]

...oh, my.

Neither of them yours, I assume. Not that it makes much difference, really.

[itsjustafruit]

None of them anywhere are mine!

But no, none from our home.

[mr_phale]

Oh, you know what I mean. Hmn. I almost feel, er, a bit outnumbered, you know?

Anyway. Would you like me to get you something other than my rabbit? You might manage climbing, but I can't imagine opening the cupboards would be so easy.

[itsjustafruit]

How about an apple?

No, we don't keep anything good for snakes in the cupboards. If you find me a mouse, though, you'd be an angel.

[mr_phale]

Oh don't joke about it; I still feel so bad for the poor things.

How can I give you a mouse, Crowley, especially today? For all I know it could be our next-door neighbor. I think there's some ground beef in the refrigerator, though. Will that do?

[itsjustafruit]

I can't help it. Not having limbs makes me a bit nostalgic.

You know that snakes don't eat ground beef.

[mr_phale]

Isn't meat meat? If you prefer the vegetarian options there's some asparagus, we really ought to eat it anyway, it won't keep, and I think some good cheese.

[itsjustafruit]

Aziraphale.
