Well...

[ For those graced with his sick voice, his real voice has returned. Yay? ]

... anyone want a tarot card reading? For fun, of course. [ Due to his irregular sleep schedule while he was ill, he can't sleep now. So decides to make it other people's problem but productively. For the most part. ]

If you want to give me something for the reading, how about answering a random question I have? Or don't.

[ Who cares. He just is very awake. ]

Sound good?

[banworthy]

I know, right? Life's hard and then you die.

[ He chuckles along with himself, but decides to answer sincerely. ]

You know... that's so strange. We don't really view that as a sin. Granted, the angels are quite focused on the divine, but if they decided to love a human, I can't imagine there would be much fuss. It'd probably even be seen as a great blessing.

[messenger]

I can understand that, from the human perspective.

[ even if he doesn't entirely know how he feels about it himself. ]

Uriel probably would have likened it to bestiality. But Uriel never did like humans very much.

[banworthy]

Just because Uriel might have likened it doesn't mean that he would have, Castiel.

[messenger]

If you knew his favorite epithet, you wouldn't say that.

But I never concerned myself with his opinion then, and I'm not about to start now. It's just the way things are. I was demoted for getting too close to the humans in my charge. I won't be looked on... fondly for this.

[ he pinches his nosebridge. before vincent can scold him for being cowardly, he adds, ]

I don't intend to let it guide my choices. I'm just giving context.

[banworthy]

Sure. I mean... God, your brother and sisters all hate you...

Might as well go for broke.

[messenger]

[ that almost makes him laugh. he breathes out through his nose in a way that might suggest he was thinking about it. ]

Anna didn't hate me. But I got her killed, so.

[banworthy]

Truly amazing.

Do you think that you have anyone in your corner in Heaven anymore? Just out of curiosity.

[messenger]

No.

[ to elaborate: ]

Uriel killed most of my garrison.

[banworthy]

Seems a little excessive, but I guess... if you can't convince them, kill them, hm?

[messenger]

That was his thought process. He was planning to defect to Lucifer's side.

[banworthy]

Why?

[messenger]

... It was his opinion that God stopped being our Father the moment He created humanity, and that Lucifer was right to have refused to bow down to such... lesser creatures.

[banworthy]

'ch.

Lunatic.

[messenger]

Oh, he was.

But he's dead now, too.

[banworthy]

Good.

The insane shouldn't be allowed to carry on and do whatever they please.

[messenger]

[ that's rich coming from you, vincent.

but castiel's opinion isn't so harsh. who can gauge insanity, anyway? he hums his noncommittal agreement. ]

Unfortunately, Lucifer isn't going to be so easy to stop.

[ which is why he needs what vincent has promised to get him. ]

[banworthy]

Oh, well, I believe in you.

[messenger]

Thank you. [ he knows vincent doesn't care, but that's fine. he doesn't have to. ] Your contribution is appreciated.

[banworthy]

I know.

What would you do without me?

[messenger]

I really don't know.

[ it's a shockingly genuine admission.

he cuts the connection a moment later. ]

1/2

[banworthy]

[ Ah. ]

[banworthy]

[ Hm. ]
