Would you choose to live forever if you had the choice?

[metatron_tm]

I don't have the choice. I'm an angel. A seraphim, for all those who know something other than those bloody Heston movies. When I was created, death didn't exist. God was first, then Lucifer, then all the seraphim after him and the lower choirs. I was one of the first and since I first opened my eyes I've seen... countless millions of lives of all

What do you do after forever? When we're all gone and God doesn't need you to Talk any more? What happens then?

[metatron_tm]

That won't ever come.

[shaman_x]

Oh? We're here for the long haul then? Time immemorial? And where will we go when the stars all burn out? We don't all have wings, Angel.

[metatron_tm]

Does nobody bleeding listen these days? After you've skipped off the bloody mortal physical coil.

For God's sake...

[shaman_x]

Does God's voice make the dead explode?

[metatron_tm]

No.

[shaman_x]

Then what will you do when He no longer needs you to talk to us?

[metatron_tm]

Just because your head won't explode doesn't mean you will be able to tell what He's saying.

[shaman_x]

So you don't so much Talk as Interpret? Interesting.

*sighs*

Let's put it this way, I'm never going to be bored or useless.

[shaman_x]

*smiles* How very reassuring for you.

And its not like children ever really understand their parents, is it? Or the other way around, I suppose.

[metatron_tm]

Both ways.

[shaman_x]

*small smile* It's good to talk.

[metatron_tm]

...If you mention telephones now, I will have to kill you.

[shaman_x]

Really? *pouts* Well, shoot!

*grins*

[metatron_tm]

*rolls his eyes*

Bloody humans.
