Fics like You Know What They Say About Customers

“Angel,” Crowley all but yelled, smiling sharply. He hadn’t taken off his sunglasses, and it unnerved Annie a little that she couldn’t see his eyes. “Are you aware you have a customer?” The owner gave Annie a look that reminded her remarkably of a deer caught in a car’s headlights. “Well, ah,” he stammered. Crowley’s sharp grin didn’t abate. “Explains why it’s so... inhospitable in here,” he added, running one finger along a shelf. His finger came away dirty. “Don’t you know that damp is bad for books?” The lights seemed to dim again, and the ceiling began to leak in earnest. Annie thought about the book she had picked up, in a foreign language and so choked with dust it was hard to read, and then about her cousin’s allergies. “I should actually get going, sorry,” she said a little uneasily. She let the door shut behind her, shivering in the cold as she headed down the street. That was a bookshop she was never going to return to. [Five times a potential customer never returns to Aziraphale’s shop + one not-customer who promises he will]
