Last Night Together | Good Omens Podfic

First podfic of the day. What if Crowley had to leave Earth due to what happened in Scotland? Stay safe everyone.
TRANSCRIPT:
[THERE IS A KNOCK ON THE BOOKSHOP WINDOW. IT’S CROWLEY]
A: Oh, Lord. Crowley?
C: Can I come in?
A: Do you have any idea what time it is?
C: Look. Something’s happened.
[INSIDE THE BOOKSHOP]
A: I don’t understand….
C: I’m sorry.
A: No, I really, truly don’t understand. Everything was going well.
C: Yeah, well, it’s what happens when you become too free. Too native. In terms of who’s replacing me-
A: No! I don’t know and I don’t care! Whoever it is, he won’t be you.
C: He doesn’t have to be me. You could have your own arraignment.
A: Do you honestly think I do this for fun? Do you honestly think it’s just to get some work off of my own shoulders?
C: Isn’t it?
A: Oh, don’t be so stupid! Sorry, I’m sorry, I’m just…
C: I know.
A: There has to be another way.
C: There isn’t. I’m sorry too.
A: My only question is, why?
C: Edinburgh. When they dragged me down, they told me to come back up and pack my bags. I knew I had one more stop to make before I did.
A: You’re leaving tonight?
C: Yeah.
A: Can’t you detest?
C: No.
A: But this is so unlike you!
C: I’ve given up, angel. Wherever they send me next I don’t care. I’m just glad I got to spend the last 5,345 years waiting for the next time I’d see you.
A: [hugs Crowley] Don’t leave! I need you!
C: What?
A: I need you here with me.
C: No you don’t, you silly angel.
A: I do. I do, I do, I do. I didn’t know it either. But now, faced with this. If you have to leave, I can’t let you go without telling you, I..
C: No. Shut up.
A: What?
C: You don’t need to say anything. Let’s have one last drink, eh?
A: Hmm.
[CUT TO LATER. ‘’DREAM’’ BY THE PIED PIPERS IS PLAYING]
C: Cheers. To the world?
[THEIR GLASSES CLINK TOGETHER. THEY DRINK]
A: Thank you.
C: For what?
A: For being you.
C: Heh. Ditto angel.
A: If I may say something, It might just be that this is our last time together but, I’ve never noticed how beautiful your eyes really are.
C: Stop it. That is sickeningly sweet.
A: Sorry.
C: It’s alright.
A: I’m surprised you even thought to see me before you left.
C: Why wouldn’t I?
A: I don’t know. I just didn’t think you cared that much.
C: Gah! Fine! I might as well.
A: What?
C: [puts down his glass] Seeing your face is my favourite thing in the Galaxy, hearing one of your stupid jokes makes me forget everything that makes me go mad. I hate this word but, I lo- I love being with you. [tears up] I love talking to you about everything. I just love you.
A: [gasp]
C: I’ve tried to be strong, I just..what am I gonna do, angel?
A: [cries] I don’t know. I don’t know how to save you this time, I’m sorry.
C: Don’t apologise.
A: But I will. I can put in a good word for you, say it was my fault.
C: No! I’m not having you take the fall for me.
A: It’s less severe in Heaven.
C: No, it’s not!
A: What else am I supposed to do?
C: Nothing! There’s nothing you can do!
A: No. No. I will not just go on without you here like I never knew you.
C: What if I were to promise that you’ll see me again?
A: It’s a false promise.
C: It might be, yeah. But hold onto it.
A: Why should I?
C: Do you trust me?
A: You know I do.
C: There we are then. Nothing has to change, does it?
A: No, I suppose not.
[20 YEARS LATER. 1965]
A: So sorry, I’m afraid we’re closed, you’ll have to come back on….Friday. No…tell me it’s not you.
C: Hey angel.
A: How?
C: Never mind that. Just hug me already.
A: [chuckles and hugs Crowley]

[@Miriam-eb2iu]

Beautiful. I am confused by the 5345 years. If it's about the Edinburgh part from 1827... shouldn't it be more like 5845 years!?😮 just wondering. 😊
