Duncan waited a step away from the group around Aziraphale, watching them and listening.
Who was the newcomer? A thought that crossed his mind was that he might be thepoor boy's boyfriend. If so, maybe that was part of the reason why Michael had bullied Aziraphale so. Duncan had seen more than his share of fathers or trainers trying to make what they called 'a true man' out of people.
He in contrast had spent enough time in purely male company to know that a person's choice of bedpartner offered no information at all on their skills in a fight.
Not that he had ever tried it himself. But that was less due to finding such activities with a fellow male disgusting or unmanly, and more due to him not being terribly keen on loosing a lover on the battlefield. The other time when the opportunity would have presented itself was during some of his stays at assorted monestaries. There he had honored the rules of the place and refrained from such things completely, even though he knew others did not.
In any case, if the man with the sunglasses and Aziraphale were an item, he wished them all the best and would simply have to keep an eye out if they ever needed protection frmo that Michael.
