"She didn't last time," Aziraphale admits with a small pout. "I got Her press secretary, Metatron." He's still put out about that. He knows that he's no archangel, but he had thought his call was rather pertinent, at the time. It hurt a little to be fed the party line and brushed off afterwards. Although if he hadn't, perhaps he wouldn't have finally shrugged off Heaven's dogma and made up with Crowley...
As for pronouns, he shrugs a little, unconcerned. "My god prefers those pronouns, which is why I use them. Although I suppose She doesn't have too strong of a preference, or she would have corrected the humans a long time ago."
Aziraphale listens with keen interest to the demonology of Balthazar's world. "Yes, you told me about the damaged human souls. We don't have a Lilith that I'm aware of, or if there is a demon named Lilith, she hasn't done much of note. We have the same stories about her being Adam's first wife, but they're untrue. It was always Adam and Eve."
He would know; he was there from the beginning.
Mention of Crowley brings an automatic smile to his face. "He's a breath of fresh air compared to the demons on my world, as well. There's no correlation between eye color and rank; Hastur has black eyes and is a duke, but Beelzebub is higher ranking than him and has completely normal eyes. Crowley has yellow eyes, which you might not have noticed behind his glasses. They're serpent eyes, and I'm sure you can guess why, but they aren't off-putting at all like other demons. In fact, I daresay there's nothing off-putting about him at all, unless he's genuinely trying to scare a human."
He lets out a soft, involuntary sigh without meaning to while he thinks about Crowley's appearance. No, not off-putting at all. Quite the opposite, in fact.
