[OOC: Pre-Milliways Entry]

There's a demon in the bar, albeit not looking quite the way most would expect. There's a faded blue shirt on underneath his jacket, and he's moving with something less than his usual grace. In a series of awkward movements, Crowley slinks around the edge of the room, skirting the commotion in one corner.

He orders a cup of apple tea.

He has to upturn the saucer over the cup to keep from spilling any as he makes his way over to his usual table.

I'll incite a revolt.

*he holds up two crossed fingers*

Nico and me, we're like that.

*He sighs*

I should have known.

We were room-mates in Evil Minion College. Great guy. Monkey. Thing. Cooked a mean chicken stir fry.

The shedding, though, that's what you want to watch out for.

That, and the scorn.

He had lethal aim.

Bastard.

We got our own back, Rag Week. Ever seen a shaved monkey?

Only in Singapore.

Now picture it with sequins.

What, no feather boa?

No, we saved that for the big dance number.

Gosh, I hope the high heels didn't hurt their delicate insteps. I hear that can happen.

No - we had a mad scientist in training down the hall from us, made these great air-bubble insoles.

Well, that's a blessing.

And that's how Nico saved Christmas.

But Hannukah was left in the dust. The Jews always get the short end of the stick.

We had a rotation system. Got to be PC, after all.

I'm just glad you were able to get the oil out of the corsets.

*He sighs and lights a cigarette*

Silk's a bitch.

The price we must pay for looking so fabulous.

It's a terrible burden, but you bear it marvellously well.

And likewise, if I may say so. Have you been working out?

*He just raises hus eyebrows and grins, taking a sip of his tea.*

Tell us Mr. Wrangle, what's your beauty secret? Enquiring minds need to know!

Parsnip porn. Truly, I can't get enough of the root vegetables.

*Crowley extends an imaginary microphone. His hand is reasonably close to steady*

And any other advice for the youth of today?
