I don't want coffee. What is that?

[And yes, he completely used 'you'd better pray' on purpose. Czeslaw ambles to the kitchen to put a pot of coffee on - it's going to be a long night.]

Shouldn't. It's su-supposed to be cheap and old. [Meaning the quality is bad.]

He finally speaks, with a carefully light tone.]
A hierological debate to which I have not been invited, gentlemen?
[...which is ironic, to be calling this very precocious nine-year-old that Dr. Xavier is humoring, and he know it. Although Czeslaw seems to be (at least emotionally) the more reasonable, one for the moment.]

With the way I've gone off at Lucifer and Destiny before, I'm not surprised my reputation precedes me.
...I've only just gotten out of my 3 o'Clock.

Which Lucifer?

Guilt is a rather driving factor in everyone's life, though if you think there is a particular god, I'll have to disagree with it.
[To put in his two cents, in this discussion right now.]

Said we're special, we're his. And lets everyone try to kill us.

We survived.
I mean... how many civilizations have survived that much oppression and that many conquerors? And death and war and- entire civilizations have been lost to little more than booze and trade routes, but.
I don't know. That's how I've always looked at it.
I know he's a dick, and I'm not arguing with that? At all? But if you saw like I have a concrete example of divine intervention-
-I don't know. Never mind.

You should be here. [It's an accusation, yes.]
You didn't live through it. None of is "survived". We all died in there. Ever. Last. One. Of. Us. [It's snarled, and more honest than he would be sober.]
What concrete example?

In my world, the whole story is the impending Apocalypse, brought on by angels running Heaven since God left. There was one angel who rebelled against Heaven and gave up his own power and, well, everything he ever knew and all chance of safety, to help the heroes of this thrilling story stop the Apocalypse.
He was killed for it. I- I guess "smited" is the right word. It was really... [He cringes visibly.] Awful and gory. Like- like a water balloon full of chunk soup, just... [Makes an "exploding" hand gesture.]Then God brought him back. Without that angel, they would've all been completely screwed over, and- as a matter of fact, the angels from Heaven had the guys - Sam and Dean - and were torturing them into doing what they wanted, when the angel came back from the dead and saved them. Because God did that one thing, the entire world was saved. Even though, at the point that the Core pulled me, everyone still thought God didn't give a rat's ass ( ... )

[He listens, a some what flat look in his eyes. War, torture, people being blown up - it's not new to him.]
One intervention - one big one - when how many small ones would have stopped it before it got to that point? One grand gesture late in the game doesn't prove anything, other than regret.
