Summary: Crowley doesn't appreciate being interrupted while he's doing his paperwork.


Crowley looks up with an irritated scowl. A scrawny demon hovers nervously in the doorway.

"What now? Can't you see I'm busy?" he snaps. He can hear the demon swallow from ten paces.

"Sorry sir, your highness, your magnifi…."

"Shut it and get to the point, poxy-face."

The demon wrings its claws. "Y-y-your whiskey's arrived from Scotland, sir."

Exasperated, Crowley rolls his eyes. "What are you waiting for? And it's not just whiskey, it's 40 year old Glenlivet, you cretin."

Mmm definitely heavenly, especially with demon-crackling on the side. Crowley muses, nursing his tumbler, picking crispy-demon out of his teeth.
