George Kardos has opened communication!

All right, I need you to sound off so I know who you are and if you're not a ghost. Getting annoying mixing the two up after this long.

[ His voice is flat. ] Mm. I. Have no plans to.

[antecedent]

Good. Liam wouldn't want me to bash your head in with my cane. Don't give any reasons to.

[tartanisstylish]

Do you honestly -

Right. Noted.

[antecedent]

Always welcome to come over to the club. Liam might be glad to see you.

[tartanisstylish]

I might, sometime. I . . . appreciate the offer.

[antecedent]

If you're unlucky, you might see one of us in a dress.

[inequal]

[ Slightly muffled, like he's not quite at the receiver but getting very close to it— ]

Or would that just be lucky?

[tartanisstylish]

No, he was right the first time.

[antecedent]

[[Now Liam's gonna be muffled even more because Ken's covering his mouth with a hand.]

Nobody wants to see us in dresses. Told you he'd be glad to see you.

[tartanisstylish]

Yes, well, the feeling will be far more mutual if he's wearing normal clothes.

[antecedent]

Liam and normal clothes stopped being friends after he found the wardrobe here. Though I'm still not sure he even knows what normal clothes are to begin with.

[tartanisstylish]

Perhaps they could be reintroduced gradually so that he doesn't notice.

[antecedent]

If he finds out, you can explain why he's not allowed to wear his bright red feather boa out in public.

[tartanisstylish]

Why does he want to?

[antecedent]

[In complete deadpan:] So he can be the most beautiful princess in the world. Why else?

[tartanisstylish]

Er.

[ long pause HE'S THINKING ]

No, I don't have any reasons, actually.

I don't suppose there's a . . . timetable or anything that could help me avoid . . . boas.

[antecedent]

[The fact that you had to actually think about that makes Ken worry for you, Aziraphale.]

Alas, there isn't a timetable in the world that could contain the fabulous that is Princess Liam and his lovely red boa. [pause] We're still working on the stage name.

...Avoiding late nights on weekends is probably your safest bet.

[tartanisstylish]

[ He's trying to be openminded or something okay . . . ]

Clearly.

Thank you. I'll do that.

[antecedent]

[You can't be openminded about Ken and Liam, just accepting of their many quirks.]

We're new at this whole drag show thing.

Don't be a stranger, John.
