Status: OPEN
Style: Action


[There's someone standing in front of the coral, talking to it. Pretty crazy.]

All right, look, I gave you a little while to talk to me and you don't answer, so I'm coming to you.

I'm all for messing with people, especially when they deserve it, but you took my Grace away you douchebag!

That's about as close to a soul as I get to have, I'd like to have it back!

[He gives a frustrated sigh and paces in front of the coral, glaring at it on occasion, frustration building.]

Look, I'm an archangel, okay? I'd kinda like to know what the hell you're thinking here!

[Another moment with no response and he gives another aggravated sigh before sitting on the edge of the fountain.]

You know what? I don't even think you are a deity. Probably just a magical chunk of rock created by someone with too much time on their hands.

[Curiosity might yet kill this cat again, but it's the only way to get answers in this place. He hears Gabriel talking from a little distance away, then approaches - arms down at his side, neutral stance, no weapon.]

What's an archangel?

[Nice and straightforward.]

[ontheirside]

[He glances up. An audience is not what he wanted. This time.]

Never heard of archangels where you're from? Good, most of them are dicks.

It's a species just like humans or demons or anything else.

[cadenbychoice]

[Good job, you made him laugh a little.]

Good, so are most Nobodies.

You just made it sound like they were special kinds of humans, I guess.

...Archangel?

[The best way of catching Amane's attention, as well as her angelic friend inside her? Mentioning angels.

She was walking by when the priestess overheard the man.]

[ontheirside]

[Well shit. He didn't mean for anyone to overhear him.]

Um..yeah. What about it?

[twiceinhabited]

[She looks at him, curiously.]

Why did you mention them?

Not like I'm not pestering you enough already :3

[ It's totally normal to talk to inanimate objects. Sophie does it all the time, and apparently her efforts have paid off. On her way to visit the coral, she picked up the presence of the archangel and his angry tirade against the poor coral. ]

[ She's a polite little bitty, she waits a few steps away for him to finish airing his grievances. There are a lot of words that she'll have to ask about later. Like Grace. Soul. Archangel ... and Douchebag. Also, hell. She's expanding her vocabulary, be proud! ]

[ When he sits on the fountain, Sophie quietly walks over to sit on the fountain's edge too, tilting her head at him. ]


Gabriel?

No such thing as being bothered too much <3

[ontheirside]

[He runs a hand down his face but tries to smile for her. Because it's Sophie.]

Hey there, kiddo. What's up?

Good ^o^

[lucentpalisade]

The bubble. [ She points up at said bubble because what is slang. ]

Are you mad at the coral, Gabriel?

<33

[ontheirside]

[He'll have to work on that slang thing..]

Yeah...I am.

[He was just raging, it's not like he could fake it.]

<333

[lucentpalisade]

[ She suspected as much - she's getting good at reading people's expressions! Though it's difficult when someone is angry but covering it up with a smile or something. ]

Why are you angry at the coral?

[ The look on the Demigod's face said it all as he passed by the plaza to see a very odd looking gent harassing the Lamufao. Despite how much he disliked the passing curse, Yasha saw no need to voice his frustration to the glowing coral reef. While he wasn't exactly the calmest individual when he was accidentally changed into a bird-like pokemon, Yasha does realize that all of this could've ended much worse than it did. ]

...You're wasting your time, archangel.

[ontheirside]

[At the sudden and unwanted statement, Gabriel glared up at the new person from his spot on the fountain.]

Well excuse me, Judge Judy, if I don't want to just lie down and take whatever this thing's dishing out to me.

[windfang]

[ The Demigod slowly blinked his eyes at that reply. ]

...My name is not "Judy" and I'm not a "judge" of any kind.

[ Yeah, that tinge of sarcasm kind of went over Yasha's head. ]

[rainbowarch]

[It's not uncommon for people to talk to the coral, so Cielo doesn't pay much attention to Gabriel at first. But then, oh boy, he had to go and mention the word Archangel.]

You're a demon too?

[ontheirside]

[That gets his attention. Just...what?]

Excuse me? How did you make that connection? Last time I checked demons were the furthest things from archangels.

[rainbowarch]

[What? No man, Archangels and demons are one and the same.]

Because Archangels are demons, my friend.

[bethehugejerk]

That's because it's not a deity, dumbass.

[The words come from a probably odd-looking kid, who wanders up - giving the man a wide berth - to touch a hand to the pale-glowing coral. He keeps his eyes largely on or near him, though, a picture of wariness, all thanks to the 'angel' mention he heard.]

If anyone had bothered to read the post I made half a year ago they would have been able to tell you that. Here's some info: we're being kept here by scientists, who are the ones who even put everything in this bubble here, including the Lamufao, and the locals who wound up worshiping it.

Hell if I know what that has to do with your supposed "grace", though.

[scaresplants]

[See Crowley.]

[See Crowley walking by, hands in pockets, when he turns to look at the strange guy talking to the coral. Huh, wonder what he's on abo-]

[HOLY MOTHER OF DUCKS IT'S AN ARCHANGEL GET IN THE CAR YOU DON'T HAVE.]

[See Crowley slowly back away because HE DOES NOT NEED THIS RIGHT NOW and wow he is the worst at sneaking away you might probably notice him by now, Gabriel.]

[Say hi to the demon?]

I hope this super late backtag is okay! Let me know if it isn't >3<

[dancingonapin]

[Someone just talking to the coral about not having a soul, nothing out of the ordinary, nope, no siree....

Wait, wait no. No, that is quite out of the ordinary, Aziraphale. Especially since it's 'Loki' here talking about 'grace' and...

Oh no, no no... Did he just say archangel?!

The lowly principality squeaks in surprise and backs away slowly.]

Y-you're an... did you say archangel or... did you mean A-Archangel... with a capital A...??

[Little 'Francis Fell' here knew there was a reason he was somewhat terrified of this person.]
