What is this world coming to?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

The times they are a-changin'.

That's about the biggest understatement ever. And coming from me, that's saying something.

It's also a very good song. Are there any good changes coming or are you warning me about something?

I'll...take your word for it.

Mmm, no, not really. I simply looked around for a moment, and the realization hit me square in the face.

It wasn't exactly pleasant.

You might actually like Bob Dylan. His voice isn't the best but his lyrics are intense.

Yeah, the world is pretty crappy sometimes.

You shouldn't lose faith in us though. We can do better.

I'll take it under advisement. I think Gabriel listens to him, sometimes. When he's not belching the alphabet in that ridiculous highland accent.

I'm not losing faith. I just--wasn't expecting things to happen so fast, I suppose.

I find your brother's ridiculous antics oddly reassuring.

Humanity always goes fast in comparison to you guys. We've got no time here. We've got to get stuff done while we can. Sadly, fast isn't always right.

Give it an hour.

...indeed. I sometimes forget how quickly mortal lives pass by.

I never said I wanted to spend time around him. I like the differences between you guys.

We're a flash in the pan, handsome. We don't get time to fix our mistakes. We have to trust someone else will do it.

You sound disappointed in the way humanity has gone brother.

Is that surprising?

If you ever meet him, it's over. He'll show up usually at the worst time, take over the couch, and force you to watch those girly movies for hours. It's horrible.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way. Everyone's accountable for their own mistakes.

You might be right about avoiding him. I can't stand those girly movies.

You know that and I know that but humanity as a group is really dumb and self-centered. Before you, I was pretty much just like that.

For you...no. You have always had difficulty in seeing how humanity has grown.

Have they? Have you walked around lately, Gabriel?

He can't either. He just enjoys seeing others suffer, the ingrate.

...that's true. And you've grown. Some. So I suppose there's hope left. Somewhere.

What about karma? Can't you make him suffer somehow?

Look at you, you're practically being optimistic. Is that one of those seven signs?

[Gabriel raises an eyebrow amused.]

You know I have. As Micheal puts it, I have a weak spot for mortals that has gotten me into trouble more than once. There is still good in the world brother.

It doesn't ever end well, with us.

Gee. Thanks.

I know there is. It's just hard to see sometimes.

If you could lie I'd say pretend you like whatever he does and that will ruin his fun.

You're welcome, handsome. You know you'd think the same thing if I was suddenly faithful.

Even if we could, he'd know better.

Hn, true. It's still depressing.

Damn, well, I'm out of ideas.

You've helped me and other people would've given up. You've changed this world even though it's just a tiny bit. You do good work, Uriel.

Yes, I know.

[ Ego? Nah. Just fact. ]

And you didn't even have to run me through with a sword.

[She's pretty fond of his facts.]

I understand.....it feels like a fight sometimes to find people of faith.
