Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste.

*this is Rachel's glare of utter hatred* You.

[wealth_andtaste]

*smiles, serenely/triumphantly/mockingly-- take your pick* Didn't I tell you nothing would happen if you didn't sing?

[goldangelica]

*shakes her head -- we'll assume she's heard the story by now, rly* Something did happen. Is your memory as fried as your brain?

[wealth_andtaste]

Nothing did.

[angelwhorejr]

*stares in shock for a moment, then* You have no business here.

[wealth_andtaste]

I have business anywhere I choose to go.

[angelwhorejr]

Not. Here. Go. Leave us in peace. You have been destroyed once already.

[wealth_andtaste]

I was merely reconsidered. You cannot destroy me. *so very conveniently without all his angels, the dickhead*

[theproofyouneed]

The -- that's impossible.

[wealth_andtaste]

It's entirely possible, I assure you.

[theproofyouneed]

It isn't. You -- how can -- you be alive?

[wealth_andtaste]

Easily.

"Oh, have we another person vying to rule the world and enlighten us all?" Lestat smirks, folding his arms over his chest. "We'll see if you fare better than the others."

[wealth_andtaste]

"How long has the other kept the world in his hold?" Raphael folds his own arms and smiles back at Lestat. "Five hundred years? I will see what I can do to beat that record. As for enlightenment, I have already proven there is no god."

[devilish_prince]

"I'm speaking generally," Lestat waves his hand dismissively. "There's always someone vying for 'ultimate' power or some such nonsense."

"And there is no God? How have you proven that?" he laughs briefly.

[wealth_andtaste]

"And I have it." End, as far as Raphael is concerned, of discussion.

He smiles slowly. "I," he says proudly, "have broken every rule set down in the Librera. I have held off the melody of the Gloria. I have stood where the thunderbolt Jovah sends to smite me is to fall, and it has not fallen. There is no god."

[notangelwhore]

*...oh, and isn't this a nice surprise -- he's just going to look positively icy* Get out of here.

[wealth_andtaste]

Gabriel! *laughs, in a distinctly condescending manner* If Jovah himself has no power over me, no laws to bend me to, you have none.

[notangelwhore]

*coldly* Jovah has infinite power over you. You should know that. He struck you down.

[wealth_andtaste]

I flew over Galo and the Plain and declared Jovah was dead. He did nothing. He did not strike me down.
