*just doing my job*
Well, was there an alternative? Would 'choosing rebel side' make any difference? Make Aziraphale somehow 'better'?
No. The sides were equally bad.
Aziraphale and Crowley were both different. That's the point.
Crowley had questions.
And Aziraphale had love.
Aziraphale: “I can't believe it's over.”
Michael: “And over in a glorious victory, Aziraphale. Quite outstanding.”
Aziraphale: “Yes, I suppose so.”
Michael: “At a cost, of course. How many did we lose in the last offensive?"
Uriel: “About a hundred, I'm afraid. They took us by surprise."
Aziraphale: "The whole thing was ghastly.”
Uriel: “Aziraphale was inspiring and a remarkable strategist.”
Aziraphale: “Just doing my job.”
Michael: “The battle fought here, at the centre of all creation, turned the tide. They tried to gain control of the Eternal Flame, and they lost! Better tell the troops the good news, eh?”
Crowley: “If you shout out or do anything to attract attention, you will be a dead angel. Do you understand? Give me the sword.”
Aziraphale: “So you didn't actually have a weapon, then, when you were threatening me?”
Crowley: “No. I lost it in the last battle.”
Aziraphale: “Hello. I'm...”
Crowley: “General Aziraphale, I know who you are. I saw you on the battlefield. I have a lot of questions, and nobody ever has the answers.”
Aziraphale: “What's wrong?
It may hurt, but... it'll help to staunch the wound a little.
You know, I've spent the war smiting Rebel Angels. I've never done this before.”
Crowley: “Should I say thank you?”
Aziraphale: “Better not.”
Crowley: “Thank you for the bandage.”
Aziraphale: “Probably best if you don't, er... don't tell anyone how you got it. Good luck.”
