Text; un: princessofhell

[charliesangel]

Sooo...I'm not sure if you know about me but this is Charlie Morningstar coming in to say hi to you?

[abelspirit]

[Ohhh, this isn't who he expected to hear from. Thankfully it's text as he wiggles around to grab his device as someone was curled up in front of a fireplace.]

Oh, Charlie!!! Of course I do! Emily talked so much about you before I was allowed to go down there!!!!

[charliesangel]

Really? I'm surprised Emily talked to you about me.

But anyway, that isn't the point! I just never got a chance to talk to you! Especially when I wasn't aware that Adam and my mom had two sons up in heaven!

[Which....kind of made things awkward but that's okay!! Charlie will befriend her older step brother somehow!!]

[abelspirit]

[Excuse him a second while his brain reboots because that crash came QUICK. What does she mean by that?]

Huuuuh? Pretty sure my mom's name is Eve and the only kids she had was when her and dad were kicked from the Garden?

I mean there were a lot of us, but still...

[charliesangel]

Really? Maybe I got it wrong?

Ah, I'm sorry about that! I really just wanted to get to know you better! I heard a lot of things about angels up in heaven and I wanted to meet more of you!

[abelspirit]

Maybe??? I don't know all the specifics from that time before I was born but I know my mom's name, at least!

No problem, I'm not upset at all. If you want to know more, I'm a pretty open book! I know you, uh, dealt with my dad but I'm way more chill than he is.

[charliesangel]

Well, you definitely seem more relaxed! I mean, you haven't cursed me out yet or gloating on how many demons you have killed!

[abelspirit]

Why would I ever curse you out??? And I don't think I've ever had any reason to kill a demon or anything like that. But I wasn't exactly the most... violent type of person even when I was alive.

Though I can't say I knew about the exterminations, either. Dad loved me, deep down, but I wasn't exactly someone he'd confide in like that.

[charliesangel]

[...]

...Yeah uh...I'm sorry about that. I really didn't mean for your dad to die. I just wanted him to realize that redemption was possible.

[abelspirit]

[Thank God this is text because he looks extra pitiful right now.]

You... Don't need to apologize for that. Unfortunately I don't think anything would have stopped if something that drastic hadn't happened. I know how he is, have my entire life and afterlife, so I'm not... I guess aurprised???? that it came to that.

But in semi-positive news it left me to be in charge of the Exorcists and I'm absolutely on board with the whole no more murdering people thing.

[charliesangel]

Is that what happened when he died? I heard that there was a lot of things that happened after the angels were defeated but I'm just glad that things are looking positively!

Even if...things before weren't that great.

[Ahaha...ha...haaa...]

[abelspirit]

???? You aren't aware of what happened? Weird. But yeah! Something about how clearly I should lead them as his son even if I don't really do the whole violence... Thing...

Don't get my wrong, I did fight off wolves and stuff when I was alive to protect the flocks! But that's not the same thing.

[charliesangel]

Well, yeah I did! People told me what happened after we defeated the angels but I'm not from that timeline? Or whatever it is that people call it?

You guys all remember what Vox did but I didn't!

[abelspirit]

Ohhhh, so just after Dad died, got it.

I don't know, either, but at least you know what to look out for in the future??? Sounds pretty useful!

Vox. Right. The guy that blew the gate off the hinges and declared war. That one.

[charliesangel]

Yeah. That one.

I'm not really sure what the exact details are but I promise you not all demons are like that!

....Mostly.

[abelspirit]

Is he just... Always weird aggressive rancid vibes ooooor what?

Why would I think all demons are like that? It's not like all angels are perfect or something.

[charliesangel]

Just asking! I know some angels might not think lightly of us.

[abelspirit]

...

I think it's more they just want to kill or fight something than hating demons specifically

Maybe

[charliesangel]

I don't think that makes it any better.

TEXT | UN: pangolinprincess

[pangolins]

Hi Abel! It's Emily. Idk if you heard, but I'm starting up a café in the city and I was wondering if you'd like to help me? It's gonna be like one of those cat cafés in Japan, only instead of cats it'll be pangolins! Isn't that cool?

[abelspirit]

PANGOLINS????? You don't need to say more than that. But what do you need help with????

1/2

[pangolins]

That's a great question, Abel!

2/2

[pangolins]

[This next response comes a few seconds later. Probably closer to a minute.]

I'm not actually sure? I mean, there are things that need doing! And I know what those things are! But I don't know what cafe things you'd feel comfortable doing?

Does that make sense?

[gotthelegs]

[It's going to take him a while to sit on that conversation on the network and figure out what might strike the right balance of being useful to Abel, fun for him, and not crossing anyone's lines. That's a challenge, but after a day or two, he's pretty sure he's got something workable.]

Still wanna try that dom thing?

They are both so useless sometimes

[abelspirit]

Hmmmm. I'm honestly not sure, myself? But I can still come by and help if you need it. And whatever comes up that might need doing that no one else can or won't do?
