"Not exactly the tour of Japan we originally hoped for," Crowley says, glancing back at the person on stage.
He remembers when karaoke machines were originally invented. His side----well, Hell, that is, it's not his side anymore---thought that they were going to be a big boon for them. People tearing apart popular songs, singing awfully. Couldn't be a better way to annoy others, destroy hope and all that. Hastur thought it would be, most of all. "Now we're thinking like Crowley," he had said. And then the machines just became a symbol of drunken revelry, and people liked them so much that Hell gave up on them.
Odd, coming back to a place with such a unique place of human invention. The human invention Hell thought was a complete failure. Crowley wonders idly if Heaven even realized it existed.
"I would have preferred the more scenic route," he says. He adds, "Sorry, angel."
