[ Crowley's been rather dwelling on the thought since Gabriel spoke it aloud, actually. Ineffability blah blah. Crowley would never presume to know what goes through Her head at any given time. He'd entertain the idea that She loves Aziraphale, though - mostly because Aziraphale is incredibly easy to love, in his experience.

It's the part where the archangel has convinced himself that God loves Crowley, that's got him confused. He's a demon. He Fell. One of Heaven's permanently exiled. The whole point is that God no longer loves him.

But instead of saying that aloud, he just makes one of his little sounds. Like, mmf. ]

[ He peers at Aziraphale. ]

But leave it to an archangel to oversimplify something.
