  ineffableangel: and three angels are shagging three demons, and two demons are shagging each other, then the two angels (Michael and Raphael) are...?
mynamesnotgabby: demented?

No further explanation needed.

mood: anxious

Haven't quite got the hang of the whole Earth thing, yet, and the 20th century seems to just complicate things. I've discovered these things called moving picture shows, and one of them seems to think that Angels should look rather like this.

It says it's Gabriel, but I've known Gabby for 6000 years and he'd NEVER go about in white chaps, and one would hope he'd keep his wings nicer than that.

Myself, I'm still rather attached to those rainbow coloured ones that were all the rage in Renaissance times. Not so good for smiting, mind, but if you're just faffing about they're quite nice.

Not down here, though. Ever since I got to Earth I've had to try ever so hard to fit in. Mortals all look so bizarre, you'd think they wouldn't take any notice of me, but hah! It's gotten to the point where I just miracle myself into whatever the nearest mortal male is wearing and hope for the best.

Black leather pants and a tee-shirt thing advertising something called a Van Halen, today. I must visit Raphael and see if that's appropriate.

The pants do rather chafe.

They say these things are for venting...

  I'm not sure it's in Angelic nature to vent, though. However, one must (apparently) move with the times...

Smiting is exhausting, I'll tell you that much. And these new sandals (all the rage with the Cherubim, I hear) are He- awful on the feet. Blisters like NOBDIES business. Not to mention the burns from my (mightily flaming) sword. All around the top of my thumb and first finger, and one nasty one on my forehead from when...but no, we needn’t go into how I got that particular burn, I believe.

Humans these days move around a lot faster than they used to, you know. Back in the day they were born somewhere and tended to stay there, barring things like pilgrimages and wars and being turned into a slave and taken in a caravan to Ur. And when they did move, it was by camel, or chariot, or boat and you could catch up like THAT. Now, though, now if you say, 'Oh, I've got some smiting to do in Mesopotamia tomorrow anyway, I'll leave it to then,' by the time tomorrow comes around they've fled to the other side of the Persian Empire and you double your travelling expenses ANYWAY.

And is the Persian Empire even around anymore? I headed over to this great little place in Uruk the other day, and it's all bloo- very well changed. Bush doesn’t sound like a very Persian name to ME, But he's the one who's apparently in charge, now. I asked about it in the Seventh Circle, and they all told me it's been too long since I visited Earth. I said, it can't have been that long, can it, only a couple thousand years at MOST, and anyway, you never lose the knack for the old flaming, but they said that I should have a word to Aziraphale, who's been down there and stayed since the beginning. They tell me HE'S shacked up with a demon, though, so how trustworthy are they?

Anyway, the unrighteous aren't going to smite themselves.
