 [And here is our former megalomaniac archangel, currently surrounded by a ring of holy fire somewhere near the Inner City, looking annoyed with the WORLD, but he's at least suitless and back to his normal Bass Pro Shop chic attire. When he speaks, it's in annoyed sing-song.]

Okaaaay. I'm back to normal now. One of you mooks better get your winged

[Anna likes being a silent flier; and that's exactly how she shows up, just a few feet shy of the flaming ring of oil and it's angelic prisoner. Sup bro.]

[Gabriel crosses his arms over his chest and gives her the surliest pout.] You're running late. I came to about six hours ago.

[gotbackupagain]

['Surly Pout' is ineffective! Anna simply takes a moment to look him over. He's most definitely back to normal. So she lifts her hand and douses the fire holding him in.]

Sorry. [And she is. She didn't want to trick him in, in the first place. But, well.]

[He steps out tentatively and lets out a breath.] Don't be. I was acting crazy, you guys were trying to stop me... It got outta hand. And if it was you, I'd have done the same friggin' thing.

[gotbackupagain]

Good to know.

You had the right idea though. The five us can still storm the gate. I'd just prefer if we were all in our right minds when we did.

[And not. Yknow. Throwing threats at each other. Much less likely to make heads roll now, at least.]

I was thinking that long before I was crazy... Just so you know.

[gotbackupagain]

I know. [Pauuuuse.] Do you really want to go with us?

action

[checkoutpandora]

Uh... Yeah? Is that a trick question?

action

[gotbackupagain]

No, no. It's just. If what everyone's saying about the proximity insanity is true, then... [You're an Archangel. If you go insane it could be kind of.. disastrous. Same goes for Lucifer, except ten fold.]

...You think I'm gonna go all Colonel Kurtz and start setting myself up as the God of Heinousville? Excuse you. You and Castiel are just as likely to go crazy as I am- I mean, let's face it, I'm already a little quirky. I don't think insanity's gonna do much more than make my jokes crappier.

[gotbackupagain]

I think we don't know what's going to happen. If me or Cas go off the deep end, it's still going to suck, but you and Lucifer might be a little more.. detrimental.

.. Can we at least leave our blades somewhere not with us when we go? [Because no offense to anyone, she doesn't want to see charred wings anytime soon.]

I wasn't planning on bringing mine along for the ride, anyway. Every time I take that thing somewhere, someone ends up stabbing me with it. [Yeah, he's ignoring your lack of faith in him. He finds it disturbing.]

action

[gotbackupagain]

[It's not so much that she doesn't have faith in him... It's more like he's an easier target to hash this out than with Lucifer. She's much more concerned about him pulling a 180 out of the two. .. So basically she's just a chicken-shit. Although hey, that stabbing comment isn't.. cool.

Questioning look. :|]

...What? I get stabbed a lot. I make a general rule to avoid anything with a sharp point because of that. [EVASIVE MANEUVERS]

[SAY HELLO TO CONCERNICUS.]

Present. [Say hello to... "Drop-iticus?"]
