ansa vilt í náttini svørtu // catch-all // semi-open

characters: Aziraphale and... you?
location: Miner's Castle #3, or your home, or town square
date/time: Jan 7th-25th ish?
content: Catch-all up to the total blackout event (??? i forgot what this was called again and i just looked it up)
warnings: Extremely fussy angel



It's cold outside (open)
[ Aziraphale took all of the vegetables and the meats and seasonings that Crowley had gotten from the grocery - braved the cold to go retrieve him, bless - and naturally used it to make soup. A lot of soup. Way too much soup. In fact, this is a miraculous amount of soup for the ingredients used, and quite tasty. It helps that it's been bulked up by some sort of grain - rice, noodles, perhaps both. It's not as hearty as a stew, but it manages to fill container upon container.

Which means that, naturally, at your door, stands a snowman-looking being. He has pale blue eyes and frosty eyelashes peeking up over his scarf. He appears to have either fashioned a coat out of a comforter, or just to be wearing one tied around himself, since he looks more marshmallow than human at the moment.

But what is really, really important, is that he is holding an impossibly hot container in his hands.

May I come in? I've made some soup for your household.

Let's stay in (closed to Miner's Castle #3 Residents)
[ It's cold outside, so once everyone's in and there appears to be enough supplies for everyone to hunker down for duration of the cold snap, Aziraphale starts to place pieces of fabric or fuzz or whatever is available around the sides of windows, around the edges of doors, to try and fill in the gaps.

He frowns at the sheer amount of items needing covered, wonders if he shouldn't just draw the curtains and tape them shut. Occasionally he'll either enlist the help of one of his housemates, or go check up on them to make sure they're not in need of tea or a blanket.
]

You'll catch cold like that.

[ He'll say this, regardless of how warmly the other is dressed.

Eventually, he might pull out a boardgame from a previous resident, and blow off the dust, set up the pieces, and see if his family would like to stay snowed-in and play.
]

Oh look, yarn! (open)
[ Aziraphale can't knit or crochet to save his life. But what he can do is make frames out of sticks, and wrap the yarn around them to make snowshoes. It doesn't look like this is going to melt anytime soon, or quickly, so he thinks this might be a pertinent venture. If you ask, he'll make you a pair. Or, he'll teach you! ]

No.

[ Castiel gestures, perhaps a little self-consciously at the body. ]

I'm not restricted by such things. My grace maintains the vessel just fine, though I can eat, if I so please. I only require rest when I'm drained.

[ And here he thought his continued use of a vessel lacking the human soul was... weird, at best, a choice made to honour the fact that he was resurrected with it and didn't have the time or energy to spare during the Apocalypse to search a new one. NOw... it's just become comfortable. He wouldn't mourn its loss were he to have to switch, and yet... perhaps he's just grown fond of it. ]

I always thought my situation unique for... well. The lack of the human soul. The human perished when I died the first time, and this body was restored when I was, too. I find myself quite alone within it.

[ What a foolish thing to say. Of course, they do not have souls - they're angels, created before souls were part of the equation. ]

Your task was far more important than mine.

[ For eons, he was a foot soldier under others' commands, going where he was pointed.

A hammer. A weapon,mindless.

Literally, as he's recently discovered. He doesn't know half the atrocities he may have committed on others' orders. ]
