Summary
"But she was a child. And the wind’s teeth were too sharp, and her face too raw and the sound of her cries too much for Aziraphale to bear. He’d positioned himself as an innkeeper to watch from a distance. The silent protector (the silent spy). He knew that the child was to be born of nothing, to rise into everything. He had seen the blueprints (and he had signed his name). But he couldn’t go along with this, not anymore."
***
Aziraphale is working as an innkeeper the night of Jesus' birth, tasked internally with the care of the young family. He doesn't expect the appearance of his old friend, and the perspective he supplies.
