[one] Well, I'm here.

[goodgrasshopper]

...And I think the idea of me being a warden is pretty funny, actually, considering I'm really just an apprentice.  But I guess things are different here.  Well, obviously things are different here, since I can actually use this nifty little Blackberry-thing, without it shorting out in my hands.

Oh--does anyone know of a good place to take a dog to to his business?  I mean--Mouse is pretty polite about these things, but he's going to have to go eventually.

You're lucky I'm your first. The rest of my family? Not nearly as friendly as I am.

...I thought angels were supposed to be the good guys.

Good. Bad. We're the guys with the halos. So, uh, we kinda make our own morality. I know, I know, but you can add that to the list of Lies Your Sunday School Teacher Told You.

[Molly is a sad Molly now.]

...I have no idea what to say to that. You're the guys with the halos. Aren't you messengers of God, and good examples for mankind and stuff?

I'm pretty much not ever telling my Dad this. He has a really good opinion of you guys.

That got lost in translation.

[He's eyerolling right now, because LOOK, KID, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING HE SHARES WITH EVERYONE. The circumstances surrounding his death are a closely guarded secret, but he can tell you're upset.]

It's what we should be. It's not what we are. Although, if it makes you feel better? I'm on your side here.

[goodgrasshopper]

...Actually, it kind of does. It's a little much to try to wrap my head around the idea that years and years of church and Sunday School were all wrong.

Don't sweat it, kiddo. A lot of people have that reaction when they actually meet an angel for the first time.

[goodgrasshopper]

I can imagine. You're... basically not at all what I would have expected.

Guess I should leave out the part where I've been a pagan god for the last two thousand years, huh?

[goodgrasshopper]

...Seriously?

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Witness protection plan. I kinda skipped out of Heaven.

...Probably should've mentioned that first.

[goodgrasshopper]

...I'm sorry, I think you broke my brain again. You skipped out of heaven?

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

...Yeah?

[He totally doesn't see why this is an issue. :|]

[goodgrasshopper]

But. It's heaven. Why would you bail?

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

You know the story of how Lucifer fell?

[goodgrasshopper]

Duh.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

To you, it's a story. For me, it's a Thanksgiving dinner topic.

My family getting itself disemboweled because of a few cruddy bad calls didn't set well with me. Okay? So I left.

[goodgrasshopper]

...I'm kind of stuck on the idea of a bunch of angels sitting around a turkey dinner.

But okay. I can see what you mean.
