“This rounds on me.” Ronnie remarked, her eyes wandering over to the person who’d just sat down beside her. She was on her fourth drink of the night and felt completely sober, much to her disdain. The scientist had a tough day at work needed to unwind. “You look like you could use a drink. Rough day?”

.

          azrael looked at the woman, a slightly confused look on his face. “no... this is just my face.” the angel frowned do i really look like i’m having a bad day? he thought, it’d never been brought up to him before but maybe he did have one of those resting bitch faces “do i seem like i need a drink?”

             “she pulled him from a warzone…“ asta mused, tone almost thoughtless (almost longing). “of course he fell in love.” pulling from a warzone, from a literal one or a metaphorical. it opted gratitude. michael was a warrior, but he was never one for willing war. personal feelings aside, asta knew this for a fact. “is it ever a fun time?” in a city full of sins and angels and war, asta find it hard to picture an often ‘fun time’. “the bible is a rubbish piece of fiction written by one of dad’s prophets that he had so far up his arse they couldn’t see the sun.” asta dismissed. “practically a work of fiction, validating his choices and glorifying reality.”

.

          az nodded “yep. it was from a desert too so he was all sweaty... if it was anyone other than michael i’d be jealous of her.” she chuckled. it must have been a sight for zatanna, but then again having a large muscular hot and sweaty solider just appear in front of you would make anyone a little lovestruck. “it definitely started out with good intentions but it’s been corrupted and changed over the years. plus people like to pick and choose what they believe.” the angel shrugged

He chuckled softly shaking his head “Its almost as if you sniffed me out” He teased the other looking at him for a moment. Someone taking pity on angels this was a person he most definitely had to meet. “Well then I’ll have to meet this women and figure out what made her join your lot” he replied before shaking his head “you’re hardly the weird one when I think of angels. as for myself I’ve mostly been hanging out in my kingdom, ensuring everything is back to running smoothly.” 

.

          ”it’s my superpower.” azrael joked. he was happy to see morpheus again, it had been a while and he’d missed the sandman. az didn’t know if he felt the same but for the angel morpheus was like a brother to them. “oh, it’s the same old story; devil moves in across from the girl, girl tries to summon a guardian angel but gets the devil’s brother instead, girl and the archangel fall in love. classic.” he shrugged “you must not know many angels.” he laughed “you should hear the whispers i get when i’m up in heaven.” a smooth kingdom now that made az jealous. sure, the veil was mostly in order but it did nearly fall apart... “what do you know, i’m freshly back from my realm as well.”

He smiled looking up at the sky before chuckling “You got deep there, but yes I know one day I’ll probably have to return to heaven and my siblings to hell…but then again if we all start hanging out maybe they’ll be more open to meeting with me.” He mused watching the other laughing “Thank you for agreeing, this is the best time Az, we should hang out alot more i mean if you’d like too?” 

.

            “i did, didn’t i?” the angel chuckled, slightly embarrassed that she’d made the mood so serious, especially when gabe brought up their siblings. azrael knew that things were tense, they had been since the fall and the war, but she also knew that it affected some of them more than others. “i think some will be more than others, but in time hopefully it won’t be so bad.” the angel turned her head and smiled at gabe, slightly shocked at his question “really? you’d want to spend more time with me?”

Charlie was relieved that Azrael didn’t blame her both for not locating her when the veil was falling apart and (much to her surprise) the angel didn’t blame her for resurrecting Sam either. Charlie had a whole formal apology thought out, but she hadn’t expected Az to forgive her. She expected the angel would be escorting her to hell for breaking the rules. “He’s an idiot for trying to take all the blame,” she chuckled softly. “Tell me you scared his brains back into him. I can’t be pulling the resurrection move twice now.” She couldn’t help but mimic Az’s excitement at the news, her smile was contagious. She hugged the reaper tightly, both relieved az was okay and also relieved she wasn’t in trouble. “He is kind of a tree,” she laughed. “Maze encourages that I climb it, but Maze has been encouraging I do things like that since I met her.”

.

            “well there is that saying about how men are stupider because they’re from jupiter... i don’t understand the correlation to be honest, is sam from jupiter? he looks human enough to me.” her head tilted to the side in thought before smiling “believe me, i tried but he was determined to protect you. i even used the whole i will make hell seem like heaven and he stuck to the story... seems like a keeper to me.” az nudged charlie gently “she may be right this time, you should climb that tree and make a nest or something.”

“They aren’t beings I aspire to be,” he chuckled. When he was younger, he had been fire and brimstone, but that was exhausting. He didn’t know how Aamon maintained the energy to sustain that level of anger, but he supposed it helped when he got power from it. He nodded as Azrael explained that her reapers were doing what they could to clean up the mess. They would have a report in by the end of the week. He would lend them as much help as he could in the mean time. “Well, I can tell you that light duty definitely entails more meetings,” he replied. “But you’re in good company.” The day before he dealt out a similar sort of punishment to Cupid. “The first one is on Friday, in the war room.”

.

          “yeah... i can see that being a better life choice.” az chuckled. at least she wasn’t going to be smited or fired, if that was even possible. “meetings?” the angel frowned, shoulders slouching. she hated meetings, they were like the worst thing ever. she much preferred to avoid them at all costs but clearly that wasn’t a choice anymore. “wa- war room? you mean upstairs?” now it was terrible. she hated having to go to heaven for anything beyond delivering a soul. she’d get these uncomfortable looks and then there was the whispers... but the war room meant having to deal with uriel and she couldn’t stand that archangel.

      “cupid… cupid brings them up. like you do. except you don’t always bring them… up.” at least jack was pretty sure of this much. this was his so far understanding of what occurred. there were more questions he wanted to ask related to the babies, but he also feared actually knowing. so he didn’t ask. “it’s not like i’m in danger.” jack defended, albeit weakly. “it’s just… knowledge. and sam is always saying knowledge is the greatest strength and stuff like that.” yes but also no. he remembered sam saying something like that a great long time ago, in a literal other world. there was so much different in this world. he wondered if that was one of them. jack stared at the sight of her leaping off the bridge (was this horror he felt? he wasn’t sure). the world changed so fast, and jack could only wonder how it had been so easy to him in the past when he’d been the one flying. nowadays it felt so disjointing to move so fast. he stayed a little ways back, afraid of messing up the encounter. afraid of even talking to the girl himself. what happened now? 

.

            oh... that’s what he means az hummed lightly “she likes to visit the babies, i don’t fully understand why she does... they all go up to heaven though, as all innocent souls do.” it was the only good thing that he could think of in the whole situation, that they get to go up to heaven and never experience the horrors of hell... or of life itself. “that’s true... plus you’re being supervised by the one angel that would know if something was going to happen to you. i’m sure it will be fine.” he smiled “i will warn you, you may get a little queasy when we pass into the veil.”

            “what... what’s going on? where am i?” the girl looked up at az before back to her body “is- is that me?”

            azrael smiled gently “i know it’s all very confusing, but i’ll answer all your questions.” he walked over to her, his shoes crunching on the gravel of the riverside, before holding his hand out for her “my name is azrael, but you can call me az, and over there is my friend jack. you’re lucy, right?”

[ofdvths]

[ ofjackkline ]

             confusion aboard his face. that didn’t make sense, why did azrael look so sad? he didn’t understand. but, the context clues were there. all too many. “do they.. the babies…” the babies were gone, that was clear enough. but where did cupid factor into it? did she- did she collect babies like azrael did all the above? he gave a firm nod of his head, bracing himself for whatever they saw next. he was a hunter, he was a winchester, jack reminded himself, he could handle it. he could. sam and dean barley wanted him hunting, jack knew, he doubted they would be alright with him overseeing whatever was about to go down. “i don’t think they’d do something stupid,” he told azrael. “but they’d be upset with me… disappointed.” which was worse than almost anything else he could think of. so jack had no intention of telling them. “it’s better if they don’t know.” 

.

          azrael looked down at jack, a slightly confused look on his face “do they what?” he wasn’t really sure what jack was trying to ask. did the babies feel pain? did they understand what was happening to them? did they ask questions about what was going on or why they had to leave so soon? “jack... really?” he raised a brow. while az might not know the winchesters very well, he knew enough to know how far they’d go for the ones they care about. once jack agreed to keep this between them, the angel nodded and turned back to see the girl pushing herself off the bridge. “no turning back now.” he sighed before placing a hand on jack’s shoulder and moving the both of them to the riverbank below. a little ways ahead of them you could see the girl, her spirit to be precise, walking around with a confused expression on her face. “hello dear.” azrael spoke to her, his voice calm as he approached her.

Gabriel chuckled looking at the other smiling softly, he loved how happy Az seemed to be when it came to playing these rather childish games. It wasn’t often he found someone who clicked with his personality and when he did he clung to them with all he had. “Of course you do, I’m so glad you agree to this Az, I’ve been meeting to hang out with you for ages.” he replied before moving his arms and legs to make the angels “Thank you Az, that is so sweet of you to say.”

.

          she giggled softly before laying on her back, eyes looking up at the sky “do you think they realise how temporary it all is?” azrael mused before copying gabriel’s movements, her arms moving up and down in the snow a happy smile on her face. it might be a simple thing, making snow angels, but it made her incredibly happy... she didn’t feel like such an outsider. “thank you for doing this with me gabriel.”

Morpheus couldn’t help but smile at Azrael, it had been awhile since he’d last laid eyes on the Death entity. In truth he had taken to them so quickly due to how much personality wise they reminded him of his sister. “Maybe I was? It’s so hard to make plans in this world, especially if one lacks the modern devices that these humans seemed to have.” He mused looking at the other “How are you dear Azrael?”

.

          he grinned before crossing one leg over the other “well then you’re in luck cause here i am.” az nudged him lightly with his elbow “i know someone that might be able to help... she’s mostly helped angels but she might take pity on you. me? oh, you know me. just sort of wandering around, being the weird angel. what about you?”

“Yeah, that’s because you know anger is short lived,” he pointed out. Anger was hard to maintain, but disappointment well, that had a longer incubation period. His expressions softened when she told him to stop looking at her like he was going to send her to her room. He truly was glad that she was okay, but he could tell she was holding back. When they couldn’t find her in the veil, his mind had gone through the worst case scenarios and they were all very unpleasant. “I know that you can handle it,” he replied although he didn’t believe that she was as fine as she was claiming to be. She’d taken more than a few losses this year. Several reapers had been swapped during the previous situation and now the veil tearing open had taken a few more. “I can help you sort out any souls that are still stuck in the veil and Raphael can heal any of the reapers that haven’t fully recovered yet. For now, you’re on light duty.”

.

          az rolled her eyes “i know a few beings that prove that statement wrong.” aamon, the void, ares... she could go on but it probably wouldn’t do her any good, nothing would at this point. while she hadn’t actively been apart of what happened she was responsible for it and so losing reapers and being grounded by her boss is her punishment then she’d take it. “everyone that survived are all healed up. elijah and rebecca have been rounding up souls still in the veil and i should get an update on them by the end of the week... i’ll have them send it to you instead.” she sighed lightly before looking at her feet “what exactly does light duty entail?”

“Being  cold  is  generally  not  fun,”  he  pointed  out.  If  he  could  avoid  being  cold,  he  sure  as  hell  would.  “Do  you  let  yourself  get  sick  too?  What’s  a  death  flu  look  like?  Is  it  anything  like  the  man  flu?”  he  wondered  out  loud.  He  figured  if  she  was  gonna  pretend  to  be  human  she  might  as  well  go  all  out  with  the  experience.  “Seriously?”  he  made  a  face  as  he  stared  at  the  box.  He  was  kidding  about  it  being  Pandora’s  Box  but  now  that  she  confirmed  it  he  was  even  more  weary  of  the  thing.  “You  and  me  both,  honestly.  I’d  hate  to  be  the  one  to  unleash  it  a  second  time.”  He  and  Sam  unleashed  a  fair  amount  of  stupid  shit  into  their  own  universe.  He’d  like  to  not  keep  that  going  in  this  one.  “I  guess  it’s  all  about  perspective,”  he  chuckled.  “If  people  stick  around  us  long  enough,  they  tend  to  die  too.  Sam  already  kicked  the  bucket  once.  That’s  a  pretty  common  occurrence  with  us.  I’m  sorry  we  put  Charlie  in  the  position  we  did.”  He  would’ve  liked  to  say  it  won’t  happen  again,  but  he  wasn’t  gonna  make  her  promises  he  couldn’t  keep.

.

          the angel bounced slightly on her toes as she picked up her pace to keep up with dean “that all depends i guess. i’ve existed for such a long time but i’m starting to realise that i’ve not really lived... it’s just been making reapers, escorting souls, explaining the whole it was your time spiel over and over...” az trailed off before shrugging “never really got to have much fun." she shook off the sad feeling and smiled up at the male “i’m getting the whole disappointed dad thing from michael already, he doesn’t need another reason to ground me.” she nodded, slightly understanding what he was saying “well, it’s pretty hard to kill an angel. don’t be sorry about that, charlie would have done that anyways... they love each other, it’s sweet.”

Netflix Q&A

[shesthedoctor]

I’ve lived a long life. And I’ve seen a few things. I walked away from the last great Time War. I marked the passing of the Time Lords. I saw the birth of the universe and watched as time ran out, moment by moment, until nothing remained. No time, no space. Just me. I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a madman! And I watched universes freeze and creation burn! I have seen things you wouldn’t believe! I have lost things you will never understand!
