211: Old Acquaintance
Old acquaintance, hm?
...so many. Too many that are no longer around. I could do nothing but list their names for a day and a night and another day and I wouldn't be done.
There's Danyael and Simon and Uziel and and Mosrael and--
You know what? That's. Depressing. Let's not go there. There's nothing I wanna say, anyway, about them. That I haven't already. Not now. Words are either too small or... Let's not go there.
How about the living, hm? Those walkin' and talkin'. Michael's an old acquaintance, couple billion years, that counts as old. But he's also family. Come to think of it, most of the names I could toss out are family, and it's a sad, state of affairs, when your family feels like mere acquaintance. Or maybe outright enemies, like Lucifer.
Of you guys, most of you don't live long enough for me to say we're old acquaintances, if you catch my drift. Firefly flickers.
There's pretty Lilit in her pretty towers. She's not family and we're not enemies (any more), so maybe she counts as an acquaintance, but...
There's a few other long-lived monkeys. And a few characters who aren't monkeys, classify as, as deities or aliens or-- or whatever. It seems like I know most of 'em through work, though. Business. Not really socially.
Old acquaintances...
...you know, I don't think I have any, after all.
