[Supernatural] Pray for the Sheep
It all comes down to one, single event. supernatural. gabriel. 137 words. pg.
You can measure the rise and fall of Heaven, not in units of time, but in every bitchfight that occurred in the celestial halls, each of them unique, each of them a tipping point to the edge of a damnable variant of eternity that led to two brothers stabbing each other in the back, caused several more to return the favor, and sent Daddy off to run some damn errand that he never actually came back from.
Angels don't have a concept of time, anyway. All is as it is in the Heavens, and time is a mortal instrument. Still, Gabriel can still recite the incidents that led to the dominoes falling, and it all starts with the words, "Once upon a time, God created Man."
That was, and many angels would probably agree with him, the first mistake.
