[ Crowley... does not look as cool and collected as his last network appearance. He's not outwardly panicking or anything, he's just got a slightly more jittery air to him that speaks of concern - not that you'll hear him admitting that aloud.

But he's concerned enough that he's not wearing his sunglasses, for once, and his hair is less styled with a lot of product to look artlessly mussed and more a worried person has run their hands through it until it kinda sticks up all over.

There is really only one thing that can have Crowley worried like this. ]

Right, so humans get sick sometimes. You do stuff to make it better. What's the stuff? I need ideas. Soup? Is soup still a thing? A wet cloth?

[ He turns the camera on one Aziraphale, who is looking less his cheerful self and more pallid and, well, sick. ]

Any advice would be appreciated.

What happened to him?

[Angels can get sick now??? He may have to rethink a few things.]

[goodtobebad]

I don't know! He came home like this! Said he had a tough day keeping the plants from dying and I had to carry him to the sofa!

[ Angels don't get sick! How does he deal with this! ]

[hisfavoriteson]

Plants? What have they got to do with it?

[He feels like he's missing something. He hasn't been around plants. That probably means he's okay, right?]

...let's just call this action since he's in the room

[bookshopped]

There really isn't anything to worry about. I'm sure it'll pass.

[He's trying to stay cheerful. Trying to stay optimistic. Crowley looks worried, and Aziraphale doesn't like that. And yes, okay, he's worried himself, but he is trying not to let on.]

I'm fairly certain soup still exists though, if that's really the question.

aces!!!

[goodtobebad]

It's been hours and you're getting worse.

[ It's not going to pass! ]

And I'm asking if soup is good for sick people. Angels. Whatever. I don't know! You're not supposed to be able to get sick at all!

[the_horror]

Aziraphale? [Angel's can get sick? what?] What's wrong with him? Other than "sick" I mean. Has he got a fever?

[goodtobebad]

I don't know! Angels don't get sick! He's... gone funny or something.

[ That guy does not look well. ]

What's he come down with?

[goodtobebad]

I don't know, that's why I'm asking the humans!

[governorkang]

It's likely he feels much worse than he actually is. I remember I felt like I was dying the first time I got sick. It'd never happened to me until this place.

Hot soup, blankets, and a lot of rest.

[goodtobebad]

I dunno... he looks pretty bad if you ask me.

Humans die from being sick all the time!

[ Crowley is being a drama queen, it's a day ending in -y. ]

[constantdick]

[Notes the mention of 'angel' elsewhere and rolls his eyes a little, not being the biggest fan of the cloud-hugging crew.]

What 'appened? Somebody nick one of his feathers, did they?

[goodtobebad]

[ If Crowley's look could actually set someone on fire, that's what would be happening right now. Fortunately, that's not in his power set. ]

He's sick. Do you know how to help someone who's sick?

video

[h2no]

Depends on the sickness, I s'pose. [he tilts his head.] There are many imPorts with healing powers that could help. I have some, though of course if your friend would rather recover naturally...

[he shrugs.]

The nanites should make it faster, too. Actually, they should make us immune to basic sickness, I think? That's concernin'...

video

[goodtobebad]

Yeah, he should be immune from all diseases, so I'll say it's a little concerning.

[ He has even less tact than usual when he's worried. He takes a breath and tries not to snap the random guy's head off. He did ask for help, after all. Someone's trying to offer it. ]

I'm not doing anything magical or supernatural to him until I know more about what's going on. So. Human remedies, I guess? He says he's tired, and he feels clammy to the touch.

[Aziraphale is sick, and Jane's immediate thought is 'do angels even get sick?'.

Here, apparently, they do, and she isn't without her concern for two people who she has begun to consider friends of hers in this peculiar place.]

Oh, dear-- [Poor angel, he looks terrible!] He should definitely be in bed, and getting plenty of rest. How long has he been ill?

video;

[goodtobebad]

He was fine this morning, and then came home from work like this.

He's an angel - angels don't get sick. I dunno what's happening to him.

☂ Video + Text { Actual Mom Allison (Hargreeves) Appears

[numberthree]

[ Oh, gosh. That level of confused desperation is hard to ignore.
Actual Mom Allison (Hargreeves) Appears. It's almost like a superpower, honestly.

Allison's face appears in her video, but her words appear as text at the bottom of the screen. ]


Have you checked him for a fever or a concussion?
Has he thrown up? What are his symptoms so far?

thank u mom friend

[goodtobebad]

he's clammy

no vomit

just says he's tired, seems woozy

[voice, maybe an hour later]

[viciousmaukery]

Look out your window.

[Molly is standing right outside the window, with a plastic bag full of cold meds and antibiotics and packets of instant ramen, and a colorful blanket tied like a cape. He's not wearing a blinding coat today, mostly because he'd planned to just have a casual day out, but clearly that's not in the cards.

As soon as he spots Crowley, he waves the arm holding the plastic bag at him.]

action;

[goodtobebad]

[ It takes him a moment, but oh. There's the weirdo who third-wheeled them on an otherwise-nice sushi outing.

Great.

Still, though, his dislike of Molly is overridden by his need to feel like he's doing something, anything, to help the angel. He'll (reluctantly) accept help from any quarter - at least, as long as he's around to supervise.

So no funny business.

He opens the door to wave Molly inside. ]

Human medicine?

[ He at least knows what medicine looks like. He's seen TV programmes. ]

[beautifullies]

[ Claire's concerned, immediately, trying to see Aziraphale a bit longer. ]

Crowley, do you remember me? I can't remember if I ever got around to mentioning it, but I'm a doctor. Claire Fraser. [ She can't remember if she introduced herself as 'Randall' to him or not, but that's the least of her concerns right now. ] What are his symptoms? Or better yet, where are you? I can come to you with my medical kit.

[ A kit she put together as soon as she could; some old habits die hard. ]

[goodtobebad]

Claire! Doctor Claire!

[ See, he likes Claire. They only spoke the once, but she's clever and funny and even though those qualities have nothing to do with whether she's an effective doctor, Crowley instinctively trusts her. ]

We're at our house. Uh, number three, in Nonah. Mostly he just says he's tired, and he's clammy to the touch, and he seems sort of weak?

[harvesthoney]

Fluids. Lots of fluids. You'll do better if you're hydrated. Soup is a classic, especially chicken soup. I could bring you some.

[She looks at the camera closely.]

Unless you're very contiguous. Then I could send it by our delivery service.

[goodtobebad]

Uhhh... I dunno if he's contagious. How do you know if someone is contagious?
