INTERVIEW: GABRIEL

Gabriel reappears a good while later. Orpheus is passed out on the couch, mask off...Mm. Gabriel sees why he hides his face now. One side of his face seems to be mangled, flesh missing to reveal sharp teeth grown in... incorrectly. Seems a bit painful. Gabriel looks at him curiously, leaning down to get a better look, and tapping his shoulder to wake him. He jolts up into a sitting position and stares at Gabriel as if trying to process the situation. His eyes are mostly black but have green glowing pupils.

"WHGWH???... YOU. Ok. Ok! ufhhf,. fuck. ok." Orpheus scrambles to put his mask back on, fumbling.

"Is everything alright?" Gabriel leans back up, watching him inquisitively. Orpheus takes off his hood, showing off messy as fuck short-ish brown hair.

"I dunno??? IS everything alright???" He's struggling to get the mask on. Specifically having trouble with buckling the belt in the back to hold it on. Gabriel gives a small chuckle before turning from him and inspecting the room. It's a small, cramped living room. There are 2 couches, one of which (the one Orph is on) faces the TV and entertainment center. The table has a pot filled with now cold mac and cheese and 2 empty bowls. The tv is displaying Mario Kart wii. He seems unimpressed before turning around, a smile returning to his face.

"Are you situated?" Gabriel asks. Orpheus has his mask on and his hood up, woo!

"Well, YEAH n o w. Couldn't you have KNOCKED? or... I don't know???"

"Well, this is a kidnapping, is it not? It'd feel strange to knock."

"...True. Sit in the chair."

"Now. You had questions, yes?" He laughs lightly before sitting down. Orpheus gets up and grabs his laptop, moving over to the couch in front of the chair Harmonia was (and now Gabe is) sitting in.

"You're an angel, yes?"

"Indeed I am." Gabriel smiles.

"Why do you have 4 wings? Can I touch them? Is your halo physical? Where do you come from? Can I touch your halo? Can I stab you with a knife to see what happens? Can I shoot you with a gun to see what happens? Can you do whatever you did to that girl before she ate the mac and cheese to me? Why are you hot."

"Let's start with one question at a time. First off, how private is this information, is there anyone you plan to share it with?" Gabriel's smile widens slightly, amused, as he shifts and gets more comfortable, folding his legs.

"Fine. Very. Nobody." Orpheus is sitting crisscross on the couch.

"Very well," Gabriel nods, "To start, I have four wings because of my rank as an angel, and no, I'd prefer if you didn't touch them."

"....Well, can you tell me if they're soft, then? Also, what rank."

"Yes, they're quite soft, and I'm a throne."

"Like, 3rd highest rank Throne?"

"Yes, what about it?"

"Neat!" He types away, muttering "sooofuckingluckyhehehhe" under his breath, "Ok, gonna answer the rest?"

"I was getting to them. Yes, you can touch my halo, and I'd prefer against violence, but I am kidnapped, aren't I?"

"I mean, is it violence if it's consensual?" Orpheus gets up and goes to touch the halo with his gloves hands. When he touches the halo it becomes apparent to him the complete perfection of Gabriel. He truly is a holy being meant to stand by God. This feeling fades as soon as he stops touching it.

"I would believe so," Gabriel says. Orpheus giggles and holds the halo. Gabriel tilts his head, "I assume you've collected your data by now, yes?"

"Yeah, but this feels funky. You're cool." Orph lets go and takes a knife out of his bag, "Ok, can I stab you? Like in the leg."

"If you must." Orpheus shanks Gabriel’s leg. He winces as gold blood pours from his legs, though he gave no alarmed reaction. The blood smells sweet, "Are you quite done?"

"...No." Orph collects some blood in a funny little container. "Ok, since knives worked, I'm assuming you aren't immune to bullets?"

"Not quite immune, no." His knife wound was already closed, leaving not a trace of a scar.

"Ooh, fun." Orpheus lifts his mask up just a bit and just. Downs the angel's blood. Gabriel sighed and set a hand to his head. Orpheus would feel a devotion towards Gabriel, it'd last the rest of the day until he slept.

"Are you proud of yourself?" Gabriel asks.

"Yes????" He sits back down on the couch. "ok,, uhhh…” He types up more notes. "I asked two more questions."

"Ah, yes. As for what I did to Harmonia." A feeling of serenity and happiness would wash over Orpheus.

"mmmmmm...." His mask is on but Gabriel can TELL he's grinning. "That feels... great. Dude... wow..." He notes it down, muttering "socool...What about the last question?"

"Well why don't you tell me myself?" He laughs, giving a sly grin.

"Well, you're big. You're in a suit. You've got a pretty halo. You've got amazing wings. You're...hm. Right, you're right, good point. Noting that down." Orpheus notes it down.

"Will that be all then, dear?" Gabriel smiles and stands up, walking up to Orpheus.

"....Uhh.......Ccan you tell me more off of the top of your head?"

"Well then, for one, I can do this." His wings and halo disappear.

"WOAH. YOU CAN JUST??? DO THAT???" They reappear again,

"It helps with walking in public. I can also teleport objects, and people. I can heal others as well"

"Damn. I wish I could do that with..." He gestures to his antlers. "You know."

"I see, I suppose it doesn't matter as much during an apocalypse."

"Yeah, but they're big and inconvenient!"

"Well I think they're lovely. Will that be all then, dear?" Gabriel puts a finger on Orpheus' chin and tilts it up.

"uuh.,..hhahah.. yeah." Orpheus blushes profusely. Gabriel takes Orpheus' hand and lifts it up, giving it a kiss,

"It was a pleasure, until we meet again." And with that, he disappears in a white glow.
