Hey people.

[The man in the dark shades waved coolly at the screen as he sat on the edge of a small stone fence. It was freezing cold outside but in spite of the clouds that appeared whenever he spoke Crowley didn't seem to notice.]

We've all been brought here, had our powers taken and dolled out to us again in much smaller pieces... it's inconvenient, like being trapped in a baby walker... or trying to save the universe with your hands tied behind your back.

Point is, I need some volunteers who are skilled with Light magic, Healing magic, Animal magic, Kinetic magic and maybe another Elemental magic user who thinks they would be up to controlling sand. Think of it as training.

Also Angel, meet me on the Inn roof before midnight. Not sure it would work with an angel and a demon but if it does we could use some good luck for the new year.

[He doesn't know about the fireworks. Those are going to be a nice surprise.]

[ OH! His eyes brightened as if he was already sitting in the warm glow of that bonfire. ]

You would make one?

[ Really? For him? He tries and fails not to be terribly charmed by that. ]

I don't think I've ever eaten anything you have made before. That could be my resolution? It's better than all those 'make yourself a better person' promises humans make every year only to break them the next day. I could keep that one.

[temptationaccomplished]

For you, yes. It'll be fun! If the pig is a success, I'll make him a friend, and they can go two by two. Maybe I can make a whole Ark's worth of animals!

That's not really a resolution, though. You'll have that sorted in the first day.

[serpentinthegarden]

Might want to start with only the two or you won't be done in time for midnight.

[ Even if it did sound fun to slither over to Aziraphale's place and watch him go overboard with baking. ]

Well, if you don't like mine what is your resolution then?

[temptationaccomplished]

Oh, right, yes. Suppose it best not to get carried away.

Wouldn't you like to know. I have a whole list. It's been steadily building since... oh, at least the turn of the century, I think.

[serpentinthegarden]

A whole list?

[ He coiled back from the screen like he was ready to strike, purely out of curiosity. ]

I do want to know. What would an Angel have to add to a resolutions list?

[temptationaccomplished]

After midnight. We can discuss after the new year.

[serpentinthegarden]

...

You know I'm going to wonder about that all night now?

[temptationaccomplished]

I know.

[serpentinthegarden]

Your tarnish is showing.

I approve!

[temptationaccomplished]

Tarnish. Hmph. My halo is absolutely pure.

[serpentinthegarden]

We'll see about that when it hits midnight!
