It hadn’t been a nice day.
Neither of them had been nice so far. Being the boss of about ten thousand angels wasn’t as easy a job as Aziraphale could have ever over-thought. Although he didn’t quite like the idea of being the boss, bossing other angels around; he wasn’t used to it. He was used to being in his bookshop, with his books and his classical records. And with Crowley…
Oh, Crowley!
No, not Crowley, of course not.

Summary
“Do you always lure your customers into buying your shi— books like this?”
“Please elaborate on what you mean by like this,” Ivan answers calmly, a smug smile plastered on his face. “I see nothing wrong with engaging with my customers and getting acquainted with them. Better to know your clientele, hm?” He takes a step forward, entering Till’s personal space —Till would back down, but right behind him stand the shelves. Ivan curls his fingers around the book Till is holding. He brushes his fingers with his own as he does so, lingering there purposefully, before he eventually takes the volumes to rest it on the shelves. A sigh escapes Till’s lips, and only then does he realize he had stopped breathing.
Yes. Infuriating, just like he said.
Or: Till meets bookseller Ivan after being dragged to the newly opened bookstore by Sua. Things go about as (un)expected as they can.
