Pero like, what is Crowley dooooooing, dropping big bucks on styluses (styli? What's the plural here?) and.. shipping it to Azi? When did they swap addresses. Are they ~like that already? Did I miss what Crowley does for a living in the BNF Au? Maybe I glossed over it but like (insert the Crowley snake emote with the look over glasses here.) Highly enjoying all your current WIPS. I'm gonna have to read Mon Cheri soon enough. 🥳

no don't worry, you haven't missed anything. considering this is aziraphale's first time mustering up the courage to ask if crowley even has a job, he hasn't dared ask too many personal questions yet. we find out in ch5 🥰

i'm aware there are some details missing that might cause pauses and confusion (especially when it's slow releases like this; it might be a little less jarring to someone who binges it once it's finished), but i do quite like the reality of filtering in little bits of information slowly over time, and letting a whole picture fall into place after a few chapters.

like when you're talking to mates over DM, you'll refer to old conversations and jokes because you both know what's going on, and you aren't going to give full exposition before everything you say. having their conversation be a little gappy like that makes it feel (imo) like we're actually reading through somebody's chat logs, and learning about those people as we go. it's part of what makes the genre fun to me 🥰
