[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.::

Hm, why I wouldn't have guessed that you were an angel, I would have easily guessed that you weren't... Human. For a few reasons.

Your store is admittedly odd, if useful. You hold many products and enchanted objects that wouldn't be available in this world. And... Well, I liked you from the start, which I only ever seem to do with non-humans.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Well, at least you like angels.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

*That slight smile again*

At least. But again, I wouldn't have guessed until I was told. *... He sighs slightly*

Not that I wasn't a bit... Shocked, when what you planned to do came out. I'll admit that.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

... That only makes sense if you have context, sadly.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

... I heard that you aim to settle a dispute, using a weapon that may cause a war in the 12 Dimensions. Is that much true?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Only due to the attitudes of the disputing party. They have... always had a war mongering nature.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

... The ones who live in the "Sanctuary in the Sky", correct? I wouldn't have actually figured.

*... it dawns on him that these surroundings probably are the Sanctuary in the Sky, now that he thinks about it. He looks around at the ruins*

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Well, what are Angels, is the question.

::Angels flying about, beautiful plants, wonderful ruins and temples.::

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

*... it's very peaceful. He seems almost content to look at it all.*

Hm. I'm very sure I'd think too hard past the original intent or point at a question like that.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Probably, and it's alright if you don't think too much about it.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

Hm. ... Angels have a lot of different interpretations, really. You state they have a war mongering attitude-- you, yourself, are an angel. Does this mean you have a similar attitude to them?

*Shakes his head*

Though, in a way, I guess shades of it show to support your statement. I know apparently your intent isn't to start a war, but you're aware your actions will possibly cause it.

... I'm more peaceful, I'd like to think. ::Snaps the book closed.::

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

I don't doubt it.

If I felt like... You'd really want to cause anything else, I'd be more wary around you, wouldn't I?

Instead of just talking here, and listening. *He pauses* I apologize though, if I offended you.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

... Then the virus hasn't entirely corrupted me. Good.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

*... he seems curious. He hadn't heard all of the details concerning this...*

Virus...?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

The Dark-ification Virus. It courses through my body.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

... I was definitely... Unaware of that. I don't have much experience in what the virus is, but I think I remember some mentions before of it...

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

It's essentially a disease that dyes the body black, and makes the individual abnormally angry and filled with rage.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

... And do you feel that you are?

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Yes. Very much so.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

... You don't seem very angry to me, but... Hm. I probably wouldn't be able to tell, having no real prior knowledge of you.

This is the first time we've even spoken at length.

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Thank you, customer, for your kind words.

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

Hm, I don't really try to speak kindly. I just state what I can tell. If you appreciate it, though, then my pleasure.

*He pauses for a moment, as though considering something...*

[by-the-pricking.livejournal.com]

Yes?

[thefrozenstorm.livejournal.com]

... Hm. Apologies if this offends, but... That girl that works at your store. I remember hearing a lot of fuss over her. Because she looks like another person. One of the Samasus'.

While it might just be... Coincidence, since she seems like a very nice and notably... Benevolent, it makes me think of the fact that I went and had a copy of myself appear, as well.

*He shakes his head* More I want to ask. Did your store, which seems to be at the center of some odd occurrences, have anything to do with it?
