Lute didn't recognize Heaven anymore. It was like the entire place just....forgot...about what had happened. Adam was dead. Her sisters were dead. And the only thing anyone talked about was that disgusting reptile that had slithered his way up from Hell.
Lute stared daggers at the snake, wanting to do worse things to him than the cannibals had most likely done to her Adam.
But as long as the seraphim coddled that diseased freak, he was safe. Instead, Lute kept her training going. She refused to relax. And each day she grew angrier and angrier. Adam's death was forgotten. His home gutted and abandoned.
All that was left of him was a memorial nobody but her and her sisters went to see. An unwanted reminder of the greatest man she had ever known.
And today, Lute was leaving a bouquet of flowers at Adam's statue. All alone....with nobody else there that gave a damn. (*nudges this at Emily*)
For the first time in what felt like forever something new had happened! And just about all of Heaven seemed to be swept up by it and also shaken by what the implications could lead to. The impossible had literally just become possible and although this could be a dangerous newfound way of viewing the link between the realms above and below most were thrilled and overwhelmed with excitement.
Em was one such individual, she was simply exuberant and happy to see the new sinner having turned winner! It was amazing, like a miracle! And for some time, she put aside thinking about what it meant and just wanted to enjoy what it was. She eagerly took to showing the snake-winner around, flitting around in a flurry of what might have looked like hyperactivity. But she couldn't help it even if she tried. She'd even forgotten all about Charlie and the whole debacle before.
Of course, it all came to a halt the moment she came across the exorcist. It had felt like she'd run into a brick wall, suddenly. Had she been selfish to have flown off before checking in on Lute? Oh, perhaps that hadn't been the nicest thing.....
Her wings drooped ever slightly, and she drew in closer, maybe she hadn't done it right away, but she certainly could do something now, couldn't she? She clutched her hands against her chest.
"Lute, oh, I didn't mean to overlook Adam, oh my..." she hadn't expected to feel so badly in this moment, possible because loss in Heaven wasn't exactly a frequent occurrence, a bit of anxiety struck her as she thought over whether she could help in any way. What should she say at a time like this? "Can... is it alright for me to join you in remembering Adam or...or were you looking to have a moment alone?" she tilted her head, in genuine concern, an eyebrow raised.
