"Yeah, well, I don't. And I don't think it's about how much you love Him, I think it's more how much you obey Him."
Crowley was sick of this conversation and just wanted Raphael to leave. The angel was beginning to sound like a broken record, but Crowley liked to have the last word in an argument.
"I never did say there is only angel and demon. I know now for certain that there is at least one other category, but the path there is a terrible one. What I said is that if you don't behave like an angel is supposed to, then you become a demon. You don't get to choose a point to stop along the way. It's not like He's going to offer you neutrality and free will just because you were bright enough to question things."
His headache was worsening and Crowley leaned his head against the bed.
"And I didn't judge your surgical ability. Only a demon could have done what I did, regardless of skill."
Deciding to ignore Raphael's last questions, Crowley tried again to end the conversation. It wasn't safe to discuss such things with anyone but particularly an archangel.
"I think I've answered enough of your questions. I'd like you to leave now."
