While the angel seems to be contemplating it, Alice thinks about it a bit herself too. She supposes it must be an odd thing to hear - someone that close to you having an emotional bond with someone else. How would she feel if that sort of thing happened?

.. well, probably just concerned for the other party, considering that'd most likely mean they would be having an emotional bond with a cat..

Just as that thought comes to her though, Aziraphale answers, drawing her attention back to him. At first Alice just stares, but then a hint of surprise enters her eyes as she processes what he's saying.

"That's surprisingly reasonable of you." Not that she has such a low opinion of Aziraphale in particular - she has no reason to, after all. No, it's just that the bar of expectations for other people is very, very low after the standard of what Alice is used to.

"I'd say I will do my best to not send him any odd emotions either, but I don't seem to have much of a choice in that matter either."

She does pull a bit of a face at that. A near eye roll, mostly. Thanks for nothing, weird island.
