((Yes! Next they'll be debating which Archangel is the most annoying.)) "Itching or something? If that's the case, maybe you need a good grooming. You look like you need it." "Yeah, that might be it. I haven't had too much use for my wings down here... therefore, no preening." Celestine watched Satan with interest. "You must be the devil, ergo, Satan. Pleased to meet you."

Crowley smiled at Celestine. "Want me to help you out with that?"

"If you don't exactly mind..."
Celestine flashed a smile at the demon/fallen angel and slightly shrugged his shoulders, freeing his white, ruffled wings. A few feathers fell dramatically to the ground.

Crowley went to work, muttering something about angels being incapable of taking care of themselves. When he was done, there were quite a few feathers on the floor, but Celestine's wings were glossy and beautiful.

Celestine turned his head to the right at an angle to examine his wings.
"Thanks. They look better now than they ever did."
He flexed his back, tested out his wings a couple of times, and made another motion of the shoulders. His wings rapidly shrank and disappeared to who-knows-where.
"So, how have you been these past few centuries, Crowley? God knows that my whole day is just visiting a bar or a saloon and having drinks to no avail."

"Oh, you know, corrupting humanity, spreading evil, making the world a miserable place to live. The usual," he said, shrugging. "How about you? Other than the drinking, I mean."

"Well, I assist others with their problems and then get them to owe me a debt that eventually snowballs into itself. Oh, and recently, I met a girl named Delirium. Nice kid, although she is a little strange. She's rather cool in her own way, though.
"Ah, the drinking is a problem."
A glass of hard liquor materialized in the angel's hand. He took several long drinks.

"I have to disagree with you there. Drinking is one of my favorite things about earth. You need someone to do it with, though." He materialized a bottle of brandy and poured some into a glass. "Cheers."

Celestine raised his own glass well above his head.
"Cheers," he repeated, downing the contents in one shot.

Crowley took a large gulp out of the bottle. "So, what have you been drinking and how much?" he asked.

Celestine wiped off traces of his drink with a handkerchief that he produced from his pocket. It was intricately patterned with weavings and criss-crosses; from a certain distance, it formed a picture of the stars.
"Mainly beer and rum. Brandy and cognac, occasionally. And in fair enough proportions, I suppose."

Crowley materialized a bottle of strong tequila. "Here. This stuff's so strong that no human can drink ten shots without passing out."

A look of mischief entered Celestine's eyes.
"Well, how about we see how much an immortal being can take?"
He took the bottle from Crowley and began to swallow. One, two, three times. He took the tequila from his mouth and discovered to his dissatisfaction that it was only half-empty. The angel raised the bottle again to his lips and downed the rest. He was feeling slightly dizzy, perhaps, but nothing else.
"Not enough."

Crowley made a gesture and the bottle refilled itself. "Keep trying."

*Aziraphale burst in, looking worriedly at the address written down.*
"Is this the right- Oh, Crowley, you're here! Now, what is this meeting that you told me to come to?"
