#meanwhile 'i'm afraid i rather made a mess of things' IS an apology

[fagziraphale]

the idea that crowley is always the one apologizing to aziraphale is weird when his two apologies have been 1) "im sorry whatever i said i didnt mean it now do what i want" and 2) smoothing things over with the dance so aziraphale isn't mad at him and listens to him. and like i dont fault him for doing that, he was acting practically and with aziraphale's safety in mind. but that doesn't make them real apologies lol
