026- Gabe's being introspective. RUN.
[There's a lot of starts and stops, like Gabe's prepared to record something and then just changes his mind, only to repeat the process a few times before finally just... Word vomiting.]
Say there's a guy. Just... An average guy. The kinda guy who goes out and routinely beats his wife on a daily basis, but no one knows about it. Maybe his wife's not a talker, maybe he's got influence and power... Whatever. No one ever gets the whole story and, basically.. He gets away with it. And he'll keep at it until he kills her.
Say you know enough to take that guy out before it gets that far.
People call it divine judgment or some asshole gettin' his kicks outta makin' people who deserve it suffer for what they've done. And I take it a step further than vigilante justice and I know it- I screw with people and I like it. I'm not exactly getting up here to tell you people that I'm a paragon of morality, 'cause I'm not. Not even by an angel's standards. I don't think I'm better 'cause I'm an angel.
I don't think I'm better at all.
But I'm not a monster. Okay? So let's get that cleared up right now, in case anyone had any doubts.
There's your public service announcement. We'll get back to your regularly scheduled programming next time. Just had to get that out there.
[[OOC: YEAH, SO GABE KINDA KEEPS HAVING HORRIBLE CONVERSATIONS WITH BELA. And they make him realize that he, apparently, GIVES OFF A CERTAIN IMPRESSION. And, honestly, he wouldn't care, except that he feels like this means people have expectations or assign more meaning to his opinions than they should. Bela intentionally went out of her way to keep him from getting at her, which made him go "UM. OKAY? WHY WOULD YOU THINK I CARE SO MUCH?" and "....kjhdska DO YOU THINK I'M THAT BAD THAT YOU NEEDED TO DO THAT?" simultaneously. Basically, Gabe is having a moment that's making him go back and actually THINK on his actions and behaviors for once. It'll pass.]]
