[Same noises of churning gears and endless ticking as in the previous post.]

I hate this fucking City. I hate these fucking gods. I hate this fucking clock.

I want my bleeding cigarettes--

What's this?

Ha. I knew I'd find something like this eventually. Dare I pull the switch? It might mean the end of the worlds, you know--well, ( Read more... )

Sorry, mister Constantine. They speak Important Dead Language Of Pompousness at the Vatican.

I know my Latin, mate. But even if I've got his initials, I'm a poor Christ figure, and I don't think you'd make a very good Pontius Pilate. Maybe 'cos I'm almost starting to like you.

Well, fuck it. No, they don't, do they? I'll admit I'm glad to be back with the living, if not always the human.
