"Right," Crowley manages, feeling a little dazed. "Course it didn't."
At the same time, though. Wouldn't have told you about something like that. Interesting that this is Aziraphale's first response. Not any kind of denial of possibility. Which means -- he doesn't know exactly what it means, It means Aziraphale has at least thought about it, maybe. Considered it possible. In some way, shape or form. That the concept is not alien to him.
This is a lot to process on top of already having a lot to process.
Reaching out Crowley gently rests his other hand on top of Aziraphale's, squeezing it so they're a pile of linked fingers.
"Hey," he prompts softly, "why don't we both have a glass of wine, yeah? Then you can ask me anything you want."
Deal? Hopefully the glass of wine might settle both of them, and then he can pick his way through the minefield of Aziraphale's anger as he questions him about it all.
