"You couldn't have done any better than I," he said simply. "My surgical skills are fine. You wouldn't have been able to do what needed to be done in the end." He winced, the memory of that noise reverberating in his head.

Crowley glared. "Don't refer to Him Below as my Lord, either, would you? There's only one person that has my allegiance and it's not Lucifer. I may have to do what he says, but I don't have to like it or Him."
