Do you know that plants respond to being threatened?

[Apropos of nothing, Crowley is here to give everyone horticulture advice.]

Honestly. Go and look at the apple trees and see if you can tell which one I've been talking to. I'll give you a tip - it's not daring to let the other ones outshine it. That's science right there.

That's ridiculous.

[That's ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous.]

You don't know what you're saying.

[uptogood]

Oh, yes, of course, I couldn't possibly. Not after 6000 years. Silly me.

[saunteredvaguelydownwards]

Ngk.

[Grumble.

Look.

No one knows him better than Aziraphale does, it's true, and it remains true no matter which 'version' of Aziraphale happens to be in question. That doesn't mean that he likes to hear it.]

I could be, if I wanted to.

[ He highly doubts Crowley could do it even if he wanted to, never mind the fact that he doesn't want to either. ]

But I'm glad you have something to keep you busy.

[saunteredvaguelydownwards]

... I'm not actually hurting it, you know.

[Not that he cares if he was! Just, you know, he doesn't want Aziraphale to worry.

That's all.]

[uptogood]

[ His face softens. ]

No, I don't imagine it would grow if you were.
