The next time Aziraphale and Crawley would meet would be at Mesopotamia, Noah's arc. Aziraphale was in a crowd of the humans looking at the boat that was filling with the animals. He had the look of sorrow and anxiousness as he knew what god was planning on doing to them all. Crawley suddenly comes from the crowd behind Aziraphale as he smiles at the angel brightly.
"Hello, Aziraphale.", Crawley greets after sneaking up on Aziraphale. "Crawley.", He says with a breath of relief since he was a tad bit startled by Crawley's sudden presence besides himself. Crawley began to tease Aziraphale about the flaming sword but again and how he gave it to a mortal.
"What's all this about then? Build a big boat and fill it with a travelling zoo?", Crawley asks as he looks around the crowd. He wonders why everyone is here just standing in front a boat filled with animals. "Well, from what I hear, god's a bit tetchy. Going to make a big storm to wipe out the locals.", Aziraphale explains regrettably. "All of them?"
Crawley looks at him flabbergasted by how The Almighty could do such a thing. "God is not actually going to wipe them all out.. I mean, Noah, up there, his family, and his sons, their wives, they're all going to be fine.", Aziraphale points up at the boat to where Noah and his family are as he speaks to Crawley.
"But they're drowning everybody else?" Aziraphale only nods to confirm his inquiries with pursed lips. "Not the kids, you can't kill the kids."
