"Aziraphale doesn't like to part with books," Crowley explained, finally sitting down next to his lover and taking his hand in his without even thinking about it. They always held hands when they had the chance.
"It's a wicked looking store though," Sirius assured Remus, "All proper old and brilliant. Smells like the library back at my school and that was ancient too." He felt quite nostalgic over it himself. "It's a really classy place."
"Thanks," Holden said drily, "I like to believe we have some amount of class here as well." Kind of. He glanced at the wall, noticing a new scribble. "Huh. Apparently Colin has a big dick. How nice for him."
"It's a different vibe, that's what you want. I gear to collectors, you have a more -- down to earth vibe. And the property is well situated for the younger crowd. It's all part of the vision, I promise." Aziraphale assured Holden, having been the one to find him the property to begin with. Well, he couldn't very well risk his precious books by becoming an outwardly gay store, even if he didn't hide the pride flag stick in the corner of his door.
"It's cosy here. And everyone likes coming here, even when they don't like reading. It's safe here." Remus pointed out, knowing he felt that way too. "Holden and Felix, they're... they're nice."
He said it very sheepishly, not sure what else to say.
"Colin... I wonder which Colin." Felix mused, cocking his head to the side. "If it's Colin Johnson, strongly disagree."
"There's a lot of Colins, but I'm not sure I know the size of any of their equipment," Holden said honestly, before nodding at Aziraphale, "Don't worry, I was never looking for classy. I'm not classy myself. But Remus is right, it's about having a place they all like to go."
"Cheers to that," Sirius said, even if they all just had tea. Still, cheers. He drank some tea and then shrugged, "And you've gotten fewer bricks through the window so far this year!"
Sometimes it was the little things worth celebrating.
"To fewer bricks and big pricks," Crowley said cheerfully. They could all agree on that.
