this place is fucked, and you know it. (mia to anu)
" i'm aware. " something vague, almost intangible - an admission but not enough to really say much, a mere acknowledge that it might be true. or at the most, you're aware of how 'fucked' it was. after all, it doesn't take a genius to know what they're referencing. but at the same time, what does it matter to you? unlike other angels, you don't get punished as severely, if at all. no, the uppers like you far more than most and that allows you to get away with far more than you should.
" is that an issue? " your smile doesn't feel real, not with the way it strains around the edges, a scowl threatening to appear 'pon your typically kind features, as if the mask is about to fall off. " why not just go along with it? " your head cocks to the side, eyebrow raised up in question. the place might be fucked but it allows you to do whatever you'd like without the looming fear of punishments, being considered a sinner and such. you're special despite it all. why not embrace that? why not indulge in it? the other angels can suffer if it means you're praised. @adglaciem
