[Dream Post]

[by_the_pricking]

::So you're in the sky. In Greek Ruins. On a balcony. There's an angel in robes with his wings spread out, reading a book. Those who pay attention will recognize this as the book the owner of Labirinto keeps with him.

However, the angel is turned around, and the light is conveniently bright enough to obscure his details.

He seems to be reading a sermon. It's quite relaxing.::

*Eventually it finally clicks with Juudai who he's talking to*

An angel...
...you're the owner of Labirinto, right? Lucifer, I think you said your name was. I kinda recognize the book... I've seen you with it in the store before.

Correct. I am he. How may we service you today? ::Turns around, their face still obscured by the backlash of the sunlight, as they take a bow.::

*Juudai tries to shield his eyes a little from the light, trying to get a better look, but obviously failing*

Kinda want to know why I'm dreaming this! Or... is this your dream?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

This is my dream, dear King. ::Yeah, I think he photoshopped his face out.::

*Goddamn you photoshop!!*

So... I'm in your dream, somehow? I wonder how that happened...
...so, I guess this place in your dream is the sanctuary in the sky?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

::Ahahaha.::

I am unsure. And correct. This is the Sanctuary.

I see... *He looks outwards from the balcony and smiles* ...it's nice here.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

It always is. Glory to God. And glory to him is beautiful peace. This exemplifies it.

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

Huh, I see. I Guess I can see why you'd dream about this place.

*Juudai is looking up at the clouds, he seems rather relaxed*

::Definitely classic/Renaissance ruins and angels.::

It was my happiest times, admittedly.

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

I can see why.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Yes. So, is there something you'd like to talk about?

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

*Juudai pauses*
Are you still planning to attack this place?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Yes. I feel I have to. ::Sighs.::

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

You attack and unleash the darkification virus here, and I can guarantee the sanctuary won't look like this afterwards...

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

... I know that, that's why it hurts to do it.

*Juudai just shakes his head slowly and looks away, obviously disapproving of his logic*

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

... I apologize that this seems... childish to you.

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

I just don't think revenge is the best answer here.
Though, to be honest, I've been wondering... you got kicked out of the sanctuary right? What did you do that pissed the other angels off so much to actually kick you out?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

... I suppose the best explanation would be that there was a Schism. I essentially proposed that all the Sanctuary should be allowed to receive orders from "above". My compatriots disagreed. And... the after effects of what followed are something I don't really like discussing with anyone.

Suffice it to say, I consider it makes me justified in what I'm doing.

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

So it was a difference of opinion. I'm guessing only select angels could recieve these orders from "above", then?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Yes. Very very powerful ones. I was one of them. And the difference of opinion... was... I think the best term your language has is... "Heresy". Mind you this was thousands of years ago.

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

Thousands of years? That's a pretty long time to hold a grudge.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

I suppose in the eyes of humans, it is, Mr. Yuuki.

[i-like-red.livejournal.com]

Heh, I guess so.
