Title: I'll Be Your Mirror
Summary: Crowley visits Aziraphale at his bookshop, discovering the angel's latest (not so much as an) interest.
Rating: G

A: Ah, you’re here, Crowley.
A: Just take a seat and I’ll prepare the drinks.
C: Ngk.
C: Angel, I thought you weren’t into “bebop”?
A: Well…you see, I figured I should try and catch up with some recent music, so why not start with something you would listen to? So I went to the shop, and this is the only recording they have from that band. I bought a compact disc player for this, you know.

[Page 2]
C: No one considers something from the 1960s “recent”. And no one calls it “compact disssk”. Anyway, how do you like it?
A: The things they sing about…let’s just say it’s not the kind that I would approve of.
C: …are there at least one or two songs you like?
A: Maybe just one.
C: You mind if I pop this into the machine?
A: Oh, not at all.

I'll be your mirror
Reflect what you are, in case you don't know
I'll be the wind, the rain and the sunset
The light on your door to show that you're home
When you think the night has seen your mind
That inside you're twisted and unkind
Let me stand to show that you are blind
Please put down your hands
Cause I see you
I find it hard to believe you don't know
The beauty you are
But if you don't, let me be your eyes
A hand to your darkness so you won't be afraid
When you think the night has seen your mind
That inside you're twisted and unkind
Let me stand to show that you are blind
Please put down your hands
Cause I see you

I'll be your mirror
I'll be your mirror
I'll be your mirror
I'll be your mirror

This is so sweet and soft. I love the idea of Aziraphale listening to music Crowley likes as a way of getting closer. And seeing the same thing in the lyrics to this song as Crowley obviously does. This is lovely.

I’m in awe. This comic is more than I could have ever expected for my prompt. It’s charming, sweet, tremendously heart-warming. I’m in love with the little details––the black and white mugs, the side remarks, the subtle shading and textures in the background and in their hair, the way the song bubble breaks up during the instrumental interlude, the contrast in cocoa vs Irish coffee. I love that Aziraphale was reaching out to Crowley’s interests, even if it wasn’t always his thing. And the knowledge we as readers have in the ending, that Crowley now knows that Aziraphale feels the same way about him, that they see each other’s kindness and humanity even when they won’t see it themselves. That little touch at the end where they finally look at each other says everything. I’m all mush for this piece. Thank you so much. Happy holidays to you!!
