Well, if he must dream - it might as well be a dream like this. He looks appraisingly at the homey, just shy of kitschy environment, hands on his hips like a man proud of his own work. Not that he had anything to do with this. But it's certainly welcome. One might even say he needed it.1
He roams around curiously, seeking a library, and delighting when he finds one. Rich wooden bookshelves packed with lovely volumes - oh, he's definitely staying in here. Anyone who wants to enjoy his company is going to have to find him.
He gets himself a veritable stack, settles into an armchair just by the fire, miracles himself a cup of cocoa, and gets down to a good rowdy2 reading session.
1 'One' would have to, because Aziraphale certainly isn't going to admit it.
2 Unlikely. Is Hans Christian Andersen ever risque?
