*He nodded and headed down the stairs. Once in the kitchen, he got out the kettle and mugs wordlessly, letting his hands do the thinking for him.*

"Are you certain? Because I don't want you near flames-"

"I'm sure I can manage- I'm going to have to," *he said, sounding almost irritated.*

Herbert made a small, miffed noise and stared at his hands.

*He set the kettle to boil and leaned against the counter to wait for it to whistle.*
*Meanwhile, Rishka hovered by the door, debating on whether or not to go inside.*

Herbert leaned forward with both elbows on the table and his hands shoved ineffectually into his hair.

*She got up the courage to, and entered the room timidly. She waved a little.* "Hi."

"Hello, Rishka," Herbert said dully, without looking at her.

*Aziraphale nodded to her and gave a halfhearted smile.*
"Is there enough water for a third cup?" *she asked, if only for something to say.*

"Yes, there should be," *he said, and took down another cup.*
"Thanks."

*The kettle whistled, and Aziraphale poured three cups, once again, very carefully. The last one came a little short, and he realized with irritation that he couldn't make it so that there was enough to fill all three.
He bustled about readying the tea.*
"Herbert?"
*He put his cup on the counter next to him.*
