[ When Neku had called him "mom" that one time, Aziraphale had taken it as what it was; a little joke. He had never really expected to play the role of a mother, not at all. So, when this child curse hit he was quite amused, then realised how disastrous the results could be. Thus, he was searching for his "children", feeling relief when he found them. ]
[Joshua jumps a little, startled by the voice, and turns to face Aziraphale. He's honestly not sure what to think of this strange man, and gives him a curious head tilt.]
How come you know my nickname...? [Usually it was those phony therapist people who called him that in disgustingly sweet tones.]
Joshua.

This must be rather frightening, hm? It will be alright. I'm here to look after you.

...Um, are you some sort of therapist? [Josh winces at how rude that sounded.] I don't mean to be rude, sir.

No, not at all. I'm just a bookshop owner. [ He keeps up the soft smile, knowing it should calm the child if he's afraid. ] I'm a friend.

Um, may I call you something shorter?

Perhaps 'Zira'?

[He smiles at the angel, happy to have made a friend in this weird city. Enjoy this kiddie Joshua for the week, Zira. He won't be so cute after.]
Where are we?

Wow! Like Atlantis?

[ Aziraphale moves to stand tall, looking around. ]
Now, my dear boy, shall we go home?

[It seems like Zira is the only one who knows him, so it will hopefully be alright to stay with him.]

[ He holds out a hand with a soft smile. S-So cute. ]
