Thinking about stuff ... [OTA]

Gabriel was gone - it sort of sucked. On the one hand, the guy was family, and the sort who wasn't actually trying to either kill Aaron or get him to redeem them. On the other hand, Debra was gone, too. Of course, it wasn't a guarantee that the two of them ended up together, but Aaron wanted to believe it. The archangel was dead, after all (yeah,

"Sulking looks better on vampires." His British accent came at the same time as there was the sound of a soft flutter of wings. Balthazar appeared leaning against a tree trunk, arms crossed, looking at him.

[gobacktoheaven]

"I always look good." Aaron said, honest enough with himself not to deny that it did amount to sulking.

"Nice trick." There might have been a touch of envy, there. Aaron's angel-dar was far from perfect, but there wasn't any real question of what the guy was. "Not seen you before - new in town?"

[ooc: I'm assuming they haven't met, though Anna has mentioned Balthazar to Aaron previously.]

[not_dead_angel]

"Not quite." There was a little playfulness in his eyes at that, but it was dulled by the same sense of loss as Aaron was no doubt feeling. That, and he was still healing from being sent against a brick wall, essentially, when Anna cast him away.

"Been here for a while. I'm just a recluse." Not really.

(ooc: Sure! Balthazar is kind of a big emo because of Castiel, so he was avoiding lots of people. Now he's sulking about Gabe and how Anna treated him lol)

Aaron nodded, understanding how that could happen. "Name's Aaron - I've been here twice, so far as I know. You met the others?"

"Wow. Gabe's disappearance really got you down, huh?" Lucifer said as he suddenly appeared sitting on the same slab of stone that Aaron was.

He was clad in a suit and his eyes looked tired around the edges.

[gobacktoheaven]

"Geezus!" Aaron said, only narrowly avoiding falling on his ass. "Give a guy some warning next time, would you?"

"Nice suit. Do I know you, buddy?" The guy was obviously not Joe Next Door, but Aaron couldn't sense squat from him.

[ooc: I've been playing it that Aaron can't sense Lucifer's angelic presence at all, something that he could clearly do with Gabriel and Michael. Also, that Lucifer's physical appearance was different in Aaron's canon.]

[god_wins]

{That's a good idea. His appearance is different to most canons *g* I'm not sure if he'll admit who he is, but Lucifer is surprisingly worried about Aaron, at least at this moment in time.}

Aaron's reaction elicited a smile from Lucifer and he chuckled.

"I like to make an entrance, I can't help it." He said, looking at Aaron. "And no, I don't think you do know me."

Lucifer used the words in a different context. He was sure Aaron didn't truly understand him entirely.

"I knew Gabriel, however." He added.

[gobacktoheaven]

"Yeah, I'd do that too, if I could." Aaron admitted. "And yeah, I might be missing the smartass just a bit."

He offered his hand. "Name's Aaron, by the way."

Chuck was sad that Gabriel had left too, but then Chuck had the satisfaction of knowing he wasn't dead and was very much alive with Debra.

He was making his way out of the church just as Aaron finished his 'not-prayer'. Which... just might have been the reason He'd come outside.

He looked up at Aaron, seeing him on the tombstone, and made his way over.

"Hey." he gave a little awkward wave, "Doing okay?"

[gobacktoheaven]

Aaron smiled when he saw the man come out. "Hey, Chuck. Yeah, I guess I'm alright." He slid from the tombstone. "I guess you heard - Gabriel is gone."

[mnightlevel]

"Yeah, I heard." he agreed, giving him a sympathetic look. He needed to check on Anna as well, but wanted to give her some time before he did.

[gobacktoheaven]

"He'd been ... killed." Aaron said, not sure if Chuck knew or not. "As I understand it, that means he couldn't go home. I'm hoping ... Debra left at the same time ... maybe they went back to her place."
