[ Well... not everyone. If that Mr. Martin had a good side Anthony certainly hadn't seen any hint of it and Elliott, heh, he was almost the opposite, so well intentioned he was placing everyone else in danger. ]
I'm not such a complete screw up that I don't know that! Just because I never had a relationship that lasted for very long, up until Grace, doesn't mean I don't know that.
[ Though what had been her favorite color? It dawned slowly that he couldn't remember.
Aziraphale though, he was different. Everything about him was recalled in the most brilliant of details. ]
He loves little out of the way restaurants where the owners try new and unique recipes of their own creation. Gourmet dishes and wines of the finest vintage. He's out of step with fashion but wears what is worn in and comfortable to him. When is he upset he fidgets, just so with his hands, like wringing them together in front of him helps. And I've seen him mad. He was so mad once he nearly stormed away... I had to suggest dinner to get him to calm down.
[ Now that had been one of his other selves memories but some how he knew that would work just as well here. ]
You can't let up on what you want to talk to him about but you can't push him too far either. He has to be eased into big decisions, slowly tempted.
[ Anthony reached out to snag the wine bottle, thinking to refill his glass now that Alec had taken his sip but he likewise abandoned the idea to sip directly from the bottle too. ]
See? I'm not so adrift... Just the other day I had to crush some poor idiots dreams of working at the gardens because I didn't want to have any Bureau spy sniffing around you and Aziraphale. I am looking out for you both.
