Crowley's in the bar, and comfortably along the way to getting toasted.
Liquid courage, yeah, but there's a delicate balance to be acheived, see. He has to be drunk enough to collapse gladly into bed (without sparing overmuch time brooding about the location of that bed), but not so drunk that he winds up taking a room here, instead of making it all the way back to Mayfair. It's a very fine line, requiring patience, concentration, and experience. And what Crowley lacks in the first, he more than makes up for in the third.
So, demon, slouched in an armchair near the fire, half-empty bottle of Atlantean on the low table in front of him, and morbidly twirling a set of keys with the hand not holding his glass.
