Case 119

[manofgnee]

You know, I gotta admit, the halo and wings look? Nooot really my thing.

I mean, yeah, I'd rather have that than the devil horns and pointy demon tail, but still. Wings are really inconvenient! They keep getting in the way when going through doors and stuff...

...buuut at least I feel better now. Why I'm an angel, dunno. Sort of ironic.

SO ANYWAY.

I've got this feeling...I mean, the City wouldn't start aligning people to the ultimate definitions of good and bad if they didn't have a reason...

...Well, whatever's coming, I'm prepared. You can't trip me up, City, I know that you're up to something less than good. And I'll fight you every step of the way!


...

Also, I've decided I'm being Batman for Halloween. And it will be awesome.

...Sam, I hope you're doing okay during this curse...

You're an angel? Really? 'ow'd that happen? ...you din't...die, did you?

...can y'fly with th'wings?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Dunno, I think it's a curse, honestly. The City has GOT to be up to something...

So as far as I know, I just got sick, I didn't die...and I haven't tried flying yet. Should I?

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

O' course! If I 'ad wings I'd want t'fly straight away! ...only don't go jumpin' off buildin's or anythin'. D'you reckon you'll still 'ave them on 'alloween? Only Batman might look a bit weird with wings.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I dunno, they could get in the way of the costume...but it'd be cool. Batman then!!could actually fly

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

...but Batman doesn't fly.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...I know...but it'd be cool if he could...

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I s'pose. An' you can put th'cape over them. Um. Maybe. How big are your wings anyway?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, they get in the way of doors...and they're pointy. Didn't see that coming.

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

Pointy?

[trolloboros.livejournal.com]

Aw, the little angel is all prepared.

2/2

[trolloboros.livejournal.com]

Fat lot of good it'll do you.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Doesn't mean I'm not gonna fight anyway.

[trolloboros.livejournal.com]

Don't fight...my sides will split from all the laughing I'm going to do at your shitty attempts to "protect the souls of the innocent" or whatever it is you guys like to do these days.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Protecting the innocent isn't a shitty cause. Better than the other option.

[trolloboros.livejournal.com]

Man, oh, man you are such a stick in the mud. Know what buddy, I'll do you a favor and enlighten you on how the world really works.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, believe me, I know how it works. That's why I'm on the side I'm on.

[trolloboros.livejournal.com]

Which will only make it that much sadder, for you at least, when victory falls to my side.

[srsbusinessk.livejournal.com]

...These curses, man, I dunno. They're kind of..getting the best of me, I guess.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

You're okay! I was really worried, man...I mean, the last time I saw you...

[srsbusinessk.livejournal.com]

I know. Not exactly a golden moment.

How're you doing, by the way? I...saw, pretty much everything.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...I've been better, honestly.

...I'm sorry you had to see that.

[srsbusinessk.livejournal.com]

Hey, don't worry about it, man. We've all got our demons.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Yeah, tell me about it...still...I'm sorry you had to see that. Didn't really want you to know about all that...

[He sighs quietly.]

Hey, did the City curse you today? I was worried about you...this whole angel demon thing, I was afraid that Lucifer would try to take over again...

[srsbusinessk.livejournal.com]

Nope. It's all me today. But this angel crap's really driving me up a wall.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

[...that pause was a bit too long for Hanna to feel comfortable...add that to how confident Sam sounds...

But if Hanna notices something off, he's not gonna mention it. If Sam is cursed...he doesn't want to have to fight his closest friend in the City.]

I'm really glad you're okay, Sam...really scared me there for a bit...

But you're you again, and that is awesome! I propose a celebration after this latest test on our collective sanities ends.
