Tadea This Spanish name meaning 'Heart' just fits in so perfectly with other popular names in use at the moment. Pronounced as TAD-ee-ah or ta-DIA, nicknames Dea, and Taddy are both on point and feminine. This is a female version of Thaddeus, who was a disciple of Jesus, also referred to as Judas son of James (not Iscariot) or Jude. #neoterosnames #babynames #girlsnames #names #biblenames #christiannames #gospelnamesforgirls #tadea #thaddeus #judas #jude #twelvesapostles #twelvedisciples #heart #nickname https://www.instagram.com/p/BtmDG5PHNi4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=sunztxhxz5ns
Is there a list of all of the RO's and their descriptions?
There are several, but I’m compiling them here to help.
1. Sabriel (pansexual, she/her) is another angel of Guardian rank. She’s the Guardian Angel Overseer for the area where you will be living and is technically responsible for making sure you don’t do anything that would influence the state of the world unduly. She enjoys human culture (particularly Star Wars) and has a fondness for tea. She has a lot of walls up that prevent her from easily trusting anything from Heaven, especially figures in power. Having fun is often put on the back-burner when she’s overworked (which is a common state for her). She tries to put duty above all else, though she’s too compassionate to always succeed in this. Being honest with herself is something she values, but that doesn’t mean she’ll be straightforward or honest with others.
Her preferred form stands at 5′9″/175 cm. She has a mess of frizzy brown hair that constantly escapes into her oval face. Her grey-blue eyes are usually underscored by bags, and she wears rectangular, black-frame glasses. Her nose is thin with flared nostrils, her lips curve up naturally but are drawn down by the faint lines on her features. Roughly same age as Ramiel. Her body looks soft, without much definition, but she’s iron and steel at her core.
2. Alice Hudson (bisexual, she/her) is a human and one potential partner for Gabriel. She’s the only child of a powerful medium and is well aware of the supernatural world even though she herself has no gifts. She’s a believer of order though she also believes that there are exceptions and that you have to take things on a case by case basis. She loves to tease coworkers and is fond of practical jokes but perfectly capable of being serious. Commitment makes her skittish in personal relationships. She is also a little afraid of children. She’s a person who will bend the rules if need be–the end justifies the means in some cases. She likes tinkering with her motorcycle(s), rebuilding them when she finishes one.
She stands 5′11″/180 cm with brown shoulder length hair that is mostly straight and usually pulled back in a ponytail. Her skin is fair, touched by sun. Her most noticeable feature is her piercing, light grey eyes that see more than people think. At the start of the story she’s 26 years old. She has lips that border on the thin side, but are quick to smile. Her eyebrows are round, above straight eyes. Her nose is on the short side in overall length, with a deviation from where she once got it broken. The tip is round but drawn out from her face, her nostrils small. She has a runner’s body, muscles built for endurance and speed rather than raw strength. She keeps her nails short, and rarely wears any sort of make-up. She is a predominantly Caucasian mix.
3. Tadea Guerrero (lesbian, she/her) is a werepanther. By the time you meet her she’s the second-in-command of her pride. Prickly on the outside, she sees official authorities (the police) as something to be leery of at best. The pressures of the former leadership of her pack, which emphasized cruelty, leaves her bitter and mistrustful of others. Aggressive and fierce, she supports Leo’s new leadership style though thinks he is too naive to hold it on his own without her assistance. She favors practicality and is cutthroat in making decisions.
She respects strength and will exploit any weaknesses she can find in almost anyone to further her agenda or that of her pack--because she doesn’t believe in the innate goodness of most people, Leo being an exception. In a romantic relationship she can be shy due to inexperience with a proper relationship. She likes flowers, and pink, and things she feels are super girly and don’t fit with the rough-and-tough image she projects. Being with Gabriel would allow her to relax a little, exposing more of her soft side.
She stands at 5′8″/173 cm. Her skin is a rich brown. Short-cropped black hair is styled into a miniature mohawk most of the time, accenting her square jaw and chin. Her cheeks are the softest part of her, her body muscular and lean with little of what might be called feminine softness. Her straight brows sit over large darkbrown, almost black, eyes. Her nose is of medium length with a broad bridge and solid point, resting above chapped lips. Her eyelashes are startling long against her cheeks. She has barbed-wire tattoos on both of her arms, wrapped around roses on the left arm.
4. Karyn Brown (straightish, she/her) is a female werewolf, with some human bloodline, who’s adept at dodging pack responsibilities. She loyal to her pack but has a wild streak. She is of the opinion that life is too short to be serious and tends to be seen as vain and flighty. She is intelligent and a skilled hacker. She enjoys kickboxing and zumba, can’t cook for the life of her and is very spontaneous. She works as a barista at the local coffee shop, in addition to some of her computer-related odd-jobs. She enjoys dubsteb, flirting, and living life to the fullest.
She is 5′6:/168 cm, of Western European descent. Her hair is mid-back and wavy, golden blonde. She usually wears it in ponytail or loose, and often has a chunk died various colors. Her narrow amber eyes frame a button nose and lips almost perpetually curved in a smirk. Freckles span the bridge of her nose and fan out across her cheeks. She’s fit, but her body appears more soft than toned. Her face is heart-shaped, her hairline low on her brow. Two thin eyebrows curve slightly, following the shape of her eyes. Her cheeks are rosy and full. Her wolf form seems too small for its paws and has a russet coat.
5. Stephanie Xinxin Lee (straight, she/her) is a witch who works at the police department as a beat cop. She specializes in charms and trinkets not having much magical power at her disposal. She’s a little sensitive about her size and hates speaking to large groups of people. Generally mild mannered she enjoys strange tea blends and can talk for hours about the magical properties of herbs but is dismal at pop culture references. She likes learning new things, and has no qualms about taking down people twice her size. While she loves her family, she’s excited to be on her own, away from much of the expectations and pressures of her family.
She’s the shortest RO at 5′2″/157 cm and is ethnically Chinese. She has dark brown eyes that slant upwards slightly, underneath thin black brows. Her long, mid-back length black hair is usually kept pinned up in a tight bun. Her features are generally on the round side, small and delicate. Her lips are narrow, the bridge of her nose flat and the tip of her nose round. Her olive skin is clear apart from a beauty mark at the corner of her left eye. She might be described as petite.
6, Iro Nyx (aromantic, pansexual, she/her) is a succubus dating from Hellenistic Greece. She’s a RO option only for darker Gabriels (though you can have a fling with her as a lighter Gabriel, she just won’t be interested in a relationship of any kind). As a succubus she has mid-level shape-shifting abilities which she predominantly uses to change her physical appearance. Iro likes drinks and toying with humans, though she is not a fan of blood and gore. She tries to rely on her wiles and ability to wheel and deal to maintain a comfy lifestyle free of being controlled. Iro is comfortable with who she is; she doesn’t want to change. She does want more control and power over her life, and will join a Gabriel whom she believes can deliver these things.
Her appearance depends on the day and whatever form she feels likewearing. Her original form had curly light brown hair that she would pin up, exposing the nape of her elegant neck. She was fine-boned and small, with large hazel eyes set above pouty lips. Her nose was small with a pointed tip, her face round. She is roughly 2300 years old.
7. Iain O’Brien (straightish, he/him) is the other option for your partner on the police force. He’s from an Irish Catholic family though he finds himself unable to commit to the same level of faith as his stringent mother. He likes to play the white knight and is always willing to help when asked. He’s very good with his niece and nephew, adores kids, but tends to be clueless when it comes to picking up on hints in relationships. He says drinking is as necessary as water to an Irish-man (even though he wasn’t born in Ireland). He laughs a lot, even when its not appropriate and sometimes speaks before thinking. His work is his passion and sometimes he neglects to take care of himself subsequently. He wasn’t the perfect son, a contrast to his ‘perfect’ sister. He grew up practicing martial arts, and decided to become a cop after a chance encounter with an officer who also went to his dojo.
He stands at 6′4″/193 cm with pale skin that burns easily and freckles spanning his broad back. His red hair, showcasing his Irish blood, is kept on the short side, just barely curling around his ears. When it gets too long the entire mass becomes curly. His eyes are a vivid green, crinkled at the edges with laugh lines. He has a square chin but a softer edge to his jawline than he likes. At the start of the story he’s 25. He has a semi-prominent brow ridge, with thick eyebrows. He has a Roman nose, long and straight. His upper lip has a neat bow to it, and his lower lip is full. 100% human. He works on core and toning, and carries some extra weight around his hips from his penchant for alcohol. On occasion he gets some red fuzz and scruff on, but never lets it get to a full beard.
8. Aelius Roman (pansexual, he/him) works ‘with’ Iro. He’s the incubus to her succubus. Technically they have a competition to see who can gain the most contracts and acquire the most power but he tends to be less ruthless than Iro. He still remembers being mortal and often includes loopholes in his contracts that the clever can get out of–though sometimes these ‘loopholes’ require a greater sacrifice than the original contract. He has a morbid sense of humor and lacks a sense of what humans judge as common decency. He is also possessive of whatever he views as his and sees lying as the key to any good relationship. He enjoys causing verbal disagreements and breaking up ‘happy-couples.’ Most of the time he wears a smile but can become maudlin, which is when he acts the most callous. He prefers to be on the outside looking in; while Iro likes to feed directly, Aelius likes to skim along the top, feeding in proximity. Unlike most incubi or succubi, Aelius isn’t that interested in the act of sex. He enjoys physical intimacy, but small touches and being close are more important to him than intercourse.
His appearance depends on the day and his form, though he typicallyprefers heights ranging from 5′6/168 cm to 5′ 10″/178 cm. He’s Roman via Gaul. Nospoilers on his original look. He is an incubus demon, formerly human. He’s roughly 2100 years old.
9. Ramiel (pansexual, he/him) is a Fallen who has many regrets about his past. He is excellent at putting on masks and getting his job done but takes no pleasure in working for Hell. It’s a necessary evil to him. He’s leery of getting close to Gabriel given their past, not wishing to endanger them but unable to stay away either. He used to be a prankster with little grasp on responsibility, prone to rash decisions. Since his Fall he’s learned a lot about himself, having grown into someone who is more mature and aware of who he is. Much of his humor is buried underneath his regret, but it’s not impossible to see.
Ramiel’s walking form stands at 6′6″/198 cmand has dark brown hair, wavy and shoulder-length that he usually pulls back in a tie at the nape of his neck. He usually has five-o-clock shadow. His eyes are a warm honey-brown, but they look tired. His skin is tan and weathered, more suited to someone who works outside than the lawyer he masquerades at. If it weren’t for the expensive tailored suit, custom Italian leather shoes and briefcase, he could be mistaken for one of his clients being held overnight. He has a long straight nose, a thin upper lip and a full lower lip.
He rarely stands straight-backed anymore, his shoulders often curving with the weight of his failures. Still, he cuts a handsome figure, a quiet intensity to him and a warmth in his smile that draws people in, despite the slightly haggard look to him at times. The oldest of the nestmates by a bit.
10. Charleston Sawyer (formerly Valois) (gay, he/him) is another cop at the precinct and a werewolf. His orientation and refusal to continue the family bloodline led to him splitting with the pack he was born in. After a few years he was recruited by the alpha of the Jericho City pack as an Enforcer. He is relatively laid-back and easygoing at work, quicker with a smile. That extends only to his co-workers that he trusts. He quite astute and reads people well, but comes across as a pushover to most cops because of his more reserved nature. In the pack he becomes second because of his martial skills (he’s a Beta second while a second appointed for their ability to deal with emotions and politics is usually an Omega second). At home he tends to be withdrawn and cold, quicker to snarl than help--at least at first. The exception to his attitude at home is his alpha, Tom, and Tom’s daughter, Josie. He expects rejection and awkwardness from most of the pack, and it takes him time to open up and trust them.
He is 5′6″/168 cm and French. He has thick dark brown hair, swept back from his face. He has a neatly trimmed covering of hair one could call a beard, highlighting his rectangular jaw. He has mesmerizing hazel eyes situated beneath dark brows that are often drawn low. His skin is tanned, though whether from sun or natural coloring it’s impossible to tell. He’s 29 at the start of the story. He is pureblood werewolf, and his wolf form is a dark grey that borders on black. He’s stocky and solidly built, with the heaviest musculature of all the ROs, but remains flexible.
11. Tom Garrow (straight, he/him) is the leader of the local werewolf pack and recently widowed. Newly a single-father, he struggles between balancing his daughter and his pack. Well-traveled and educated, he tends to have lofty ideas that sometimes need a dose of practicality. He is not a fan of his wolf nature and tends to try to cover any of his ‘innate savagery’ with an excess of culture in his day-to-day life. He runs an upscale bar for his ‘day’ job and is a shrewd business man. He deliberately appointed Charleston in spite of the majority of the pack’s feelings--wondering if an Enforcer was really the best fit for second--informing them that he was selecting the best person for the job, feelings be damned.
He cares for Charleston as a close friend but often finds himself unable to help with his friend’s issues without making them worse. Respected for his leadership because he puts the safety of the pack first, he can struggle with relationships outside of the pack. He does want to create a more international and cooperative pack that has other supernatural allies but has yet to persuade the pack to his point of view, especially after the death of his wife where they want to close ranks. When in a relationship, he likes to indulge in more of his wolf nature, allowing for some of that freedom that he tries to keep out of his professional life.
Tom is 30 years old at the start of the story and stands at 6′5″/196 cm. Ethnically he’s of Western European descent, mixed. He was born a werewolf, but has human blood in his bloodline. His dark brown hairis of medium-short length just brushing his collar and swept away from his widow’s peak. It’s already starting to silver. His warm brown eyes, which take on a golden hue, are evenly spaced on his oval face, cut by a slightly hooked, Romanesque nose. He has strong bones, though his cheeks run a little towards gaunt. His face remains unlined. His skin is a warm peach. His wolf form is entirely silver, lean and long-legged. His shoulders are broad, but he leans towards slim elegance, a graceful dancer’s build with some definition.
12. Leo Soto (pansexual, he/him) is the werepanther Alpha. Young for an Alpha, he succeeded by killing the previous Alpha as is custom with werepanthers (or so it seems). He is attempting to change the way the pride behaves but meets resistance. A bit of an idealist he is often frustrated by what he calls outdated moralities but lacking little in the way of different life experiences tends to exert the authority of his position when challenged. He often appeals to higher powers for guidance, especially when trying to remain calm. He is eager to work with Gabriel, and is nervous and a little naive when it comes to relationships. He views forgiveness and compassion as priorities, despite little in his life showing him the advantages of those qualities.
He stands at 6′1″/185 cm. He is Hispanic, with sienna skin and broad cheekbones. His solid black hair is usually kept in a long,single braid running down his back. Deep golden-brown eyes are set beneath dark, prominent brows. He has a sharp jawline, softened by the remnants of his youth. His body is honed, ready for fight or flight, sinewy and graceful. His white teeth flash often in smiles from behind soft lips. He has a single tattoo, a pair of angel wings on the nape of his neck, usually concealed by his hair.
13. Ryder (Eljas) Alsvartrson (bisexual, he/him): Warlock, born Eljas but renamed himself Ryder as the centuries passed to blend better. He has a brother named Nate who is a perpetually high necromancer.
Warlocks are territorial due to the nature of their power (demonic bargains) so he is the sole warlock in the city. (Warlocks are a type of magic user, and the term is gender neutral.) He has a soft spot for his brother even though he’s usually found yelling at him. Hates werewolves. Likes to use hellfire to burn things.
He has an intense hatred of weakness and is of the opinion that if you can’t hold onto power then you never deserved it. He has no qualms about killing and isn’t particularly good at relationships. Vain, he likes to enforce stereotypes of what a warlock looks like (according to him) so he goes around dressed in a black leather duster, black boots, black cargo pants, a (you guessed it) black shirt.
He is flattered by people giving him power. He is attracted to power, regardless of gender. Ryder finds ruthlessness and manipulating others a turn on. He can actually be protective of the MC if the relationship is approached carefully, but generally he prefers to be part of a power couple. (The tag #evil bean is his.)
His natural height is 5′5″/165cm, but he wears boots with lifts whenever he’s in public, bumping up his height by two inches. He’s Norse, and has straight, knee-length,white-blonde hair that pours over his thin body. His pale, almost white eyes peer out from beneath almost invisible eyebrows, his thin and humorless lips rest below his hawk nose, the tip of which is just slightly upturned. He has high cheekbones, and a long face, a rectangular jaw line but soft chin. He appears to be about 23 years old. He runs skinny, almost unhealthily so, lanky and lean. Natural physical strength isn’t something he concerns himself with, and one can tell.
14. Zaria Wangari (pansexual, she/her) is half-human, on her father’s side. Her mother is a Sauti ya hila (a species unique to the SoS world). Because of her heritage, she is incapable of hearing normal human vocal ranges, so for most intents and purposes she is deaf. She works as the Medical Examiner for Jericho City Police Department.
Because of her deafness, she typically won’t initiate conversations with unknown people or in large groups as she gets nervous about how she sounds. She is fluent in ASL, and the rest of the precinct has various levels of fluency in it as well.
She tends to respond logically to situations first, always being careful to consider things before speaking. She dislikes being rushed or pressed for quick decisions, and isn’t shy about letting you know so. Questioning her knowledge is a good way to offend her. She’s reserved until she knows you, and then is prone to slipping in teasing remarks when visited in her home domain (that being her office and lab). Outside of work, she enjoys spending time outside with Rolo, her Komondor (aka large mop dog). She is a wine aficionado.
Looking sharp and well-presented is important to her, and she is meticulous about the aesthetic feel of her office and home. Going to crime scenes can stress her out because of the potential for crowds and unexpected people; she likes being in control, and places with a lot of people tend to put her on the defensive and she shuts down. Going out in groups with friends that she knows is usually the way she counters for the lack of control in new environments, but in general she prefers to be a creature of habit.
Her natural eye-color is violet, so she wearsamber-contacts most of the time. Zaria’s hair is a wavy cascade of mahogany that she usually wears pulled back in a bun. Her natural eye-color is violet, so she wears amber-colored contacts. She often wears high-heeled boots that bump her height up to 6’ 2"/188cm (she’s actually 6’0"/183cm). She is 29 years old at the start of the story, but is often mistaken for being a decade younger. Luckily her height stops most people from attempting to card her or question if she’s truly old enough to have obtained her Doctorate in Forensic Pathology. She has prominent, high cheekbones and full lips. Her nose is broad, and her eyebrows arched. She has long legs and long, elegant fingers. She’s lean, but has broad shoulders, and knows how to flatter her assets.
15. Michael (pansexual, he/him) is an archangel and nestmate of Gabriel. Young Michael was eager to please and desperate to belong. Older Michael has become jaded and is a source of nearly constant conflict. His version of being overprotective comes across as controlling and stifling. Somewhere along the way something changed him, and the new Michael is often angry and upset, no real cause required.
In angel form, Michael stands at 6′2″/188 cm. Michael wears his long blond hair in a neat, single braid down his back. It falls to midback.There’s nothing in particular that stands out about his looks–standard black eyes, golden skin, large gold wings, lean and muscular build. His nose is on the small size, some might say more button-nose than not, his lips are thin, and his chin has a stubborn jut to it. In human form, Michael’s form is 5′10″/178 cm. His hair is cropped short and blonde, about an inch-and-a-half in length. He has wide whiskey brown eyes. He has a stubborn chin, a short face, and a button-nose. His shoulders are narrow and his frame lean. His lips are thin and usually turned down to mirror the slant of his thick, light blonde eyebrows. His skin is an almost unhealthy shade of white. Slightly older than Gabriel.
Can we get hand writing samples from the characters please? :)
So I’ve got an image of me attempting to do them all for the visual folks, and I’ve also included a short little description of each style.
1. Sabriel: Very loopy and crowded, a fast scrawl that attempts to remain legible without expecting her to pick up her pen.
2. Alice: One of the messier handwriting styles, round shapes often have loops. Letters are loose, often spread out.
3. Ryder: Not one I consider having gone well in my handwriting. He typically writes with a calligraphy pen, lots of loops at the tails of long letters, can be difficult to read because of the emphasis on making everything ornate.
4. Ramiel: Very angular, sharp letters. Uneven line basis.
5. Leo: Round, soft letters. Few sharp angles, letters are evenly spaced and take of room.
6. Iain: Very spaced out words. Slants left to right, letters aren’t always closed.
7. Michael: A strange hybrid of all caps and yet i’s, for instance, have a distinct upper and lowercase look. Most letters favor a rounder
8. Stephanie: A tight, neat script with a bit of flair. She like to dot her eyes and exclamation points with hearts. (Another one I don’t consider neat enough in my hand writing)
9. Zaria: She used to write in script but got tired of people being unable to read her reports. Now she has an elegant, slanted print. Descenders often have a little curve to them.
10. Charleston: All capital letters, harsh, straight lines. No flair, written to be legible at a distance.
11. Aelius: Tight, nearly illegible script because of how small and close it is. Big, stylish capitals focusing on simple elegance.
12. Iro: A modern hybrid of script and print, her letters often shift depending on the preceding letters. Emphasis on small, cramped writing, flows fast from the hand.
13. Karyn: Fairly neat, but it doesn’t sit on a straight line well. Blocky letters, flat. T’s are crossed lop-sidedly.
14. Tom: round, a little flair on the f’s, slight slant to the right. Neat, reminiscent of script with the tailing ends of letters.
15. Tadea: Arguably the worst handwriting of the ROs. She doesn’t much care if anyone can read it. Vowels are very narrow, look more like lines than any visible loops. Letters such as d’s and b’s don’t close loops.
because fluff cloud filled me with emotion, how would the ros, israfel, lucifer and daniel react to a gabriel who had been accidentally de-aged. like actually ate something hexed and turned into a toddler in the precinct?? its super long im sorry asdfs maybe just the angels, lucifer and daniel because i bully u with enough shit
This seems to be a popular one. I’ve seen a few versions of this scenario (and may have one half-answered buried in this mountain >.>) but I’ll toss an answer in here. (Also for clarification, fluff cloud is a channel from the discord server)
1. Iain is used to kids. He’s just going to focus very hard on not thinking about how this happened or how one is supposed to undo this and let everyone else deal with that. You and him can go watch some cartoons and nap on the couch while people are figuring it out.
2. Alice looks at you like you’re a bomb about to go off. She’s giving you to Iain and trying to find a solution as fast as possible to this situation.
3. Charleston gives you a coloring book and some crayons, as well as some nuts and a juice box, leaving you at his desk while he goes and tries to find a way to undo this situation.
4. Stephanie is fascinated with the transformation. Do you still have your memories? Is it just a physical transformation? Are there other side-effects? She wants to observe and document while she tries to diagnose what kind of magic caused this and who was behind behind it and how to undo it.
5. Tom doesn’t know what else to do other than take care of you like the toddler you now apparently are. It’s awkward but some part of him also enjoys acting like a parent to a small child again. Josie had to grow up so fast and he misses
6. Karyn is not a babysitter. What if it’s permanent? Is she suddenly responsible because you happened to be dating when it happened? She’s got her own job and her own life and that sucks but she’s not a responsible person. You have friends and Tom can help because that’s a problem if someone is going around de-aging people.
7. Leo has never held a small child or been around them much, but he’ll try to make sure you’re alright while everyone else figures something else. He’s constantly chasing after you and trying to balance keeping an eye on you while reading every parenting book he can get his hands on. Not to mention trying to babyproof every outlet and corner and generally worrying about how small and fragile you suddenly are.
8. Tadea isn’t thrilled. She would much rather have you in your normal state. It’s awkward to have someone you’re dating suddenly turn into a toddler. It’s still you, sort of, but now you’re a child. She’d rather not take care of you because how do you come back from helping your
9. Ramiel rolls with it. He’s surprised by it, but he’s seen a lot of weird and inexplicable events, though he’s sure this one has a perfectly sensible explanation… that someone else will figure out because he’s busy chasing around Gabriel. Is likely found sprawled on a couch
10. Zaria sighs. This situation is far from ideal, but she’ll arrange for child care while everyone is working and they’ll set up a rotating schedule afterwards until this situation can be resolved. Not to mention they’ll have to explain why you’re not reporting for duty and cover any obligations you committed to before the situation happened.
11. Michael is panicked. This can’t be happening. He just got you and now you’re a child! After settling down, he realizes that worst case he has to wait for you again. That’s not so bad, especially if he can make up for some of his behavior in the past while doing so. He’s not going to be the main one responsible for small Gabriel though. No one trusts Michael to remember how often humans need sustenance.
12. Sabriel is pissed, though not at you. This isn’t supposed to happen, and constitutes a major issue. She has to find a way to explain your absence, a way to undo this spell (not to mention how it happened in the first place), and take care of you on top of all her regular duties. Stressed is a bit of an understatement.
13. Aelius is quiet. It’s hard to tell his personal feelings about the situation. He does what needs to be done to take care of you, and the only time he seems to smile is when the small toddler holds his hands. Rumor is that he’s made offers (the kind you can’t refuse) for anyone who can break the spell.
14. Iro, contrary to what one might expect, seems alright with this sudden change. She squirrels Gabriel away, transforming her loft into what looks like a daycare--for one small child.
15. Ryder is furious. Someone dared to turn you into a toddler? How? And when he finds them, he’s going to make them undo their spell so he can get back his lover and then he’s going to let Gabriel decide their punishment.
Daniel finds the situation ironic, if not ideal. The first day is kind of fun, but then he has school and what about the bills and how does one explain this? And he doesn’t know about toddlers. They start crying and he doesn’t understand why. And please, please, please tell him you’re potty-trained because that’s the part where he’s going to have to dump you on Israfel if not.
Lucifer: He gets to be a father of a young Gabriel? So much to do, so little time! Sure, someone should probably get to work aging them back again but in the meantime it’s time for some quality father-child time. Prepare for overstimulation and forgetting that small children need rest and food other than ice cream.
Israfel: He’s taken care of Gabriel as a cherub. It’s not that different taking care of a small toddler. Well, they are a bit more breakable and require more care what with their biological needs, but it’ll be over and done in what might as well be the blink of an eye to him. A very long, restless blink.
mid-battle proposal? mid-battle proposal. gabriel brings a lot of attention from demons and other Really Opinionated Supernaturals. in the middle of a fight, gabriel pulls a whole will turner proposal and asks the ros to marry them right then and there. how'd they react? :o (if they say yes can u just imagine gabriel yelling at israfel to marry them to the ro? adsfgh)
(I’m a sucker for that scene I’ll have you know)
1. Alice: “NOT THE FUCKING TIME!”
2. Iain: “Wh-now? I mean–I guess? No, wait, that’s a yes to the marriage proposal! Not an ‘I guess.’ Just–watch out–yes! That’s a yes!”
3. Charleston: There’s a pause where the hulking, partially transformed werewolf turns towards you. The elongated muzzle isn’t meant for speech, but you swear there’s a nod from the bloody muzzle before he’s disappeared into the thick of battle once more.
4. Stephanie: “... I’m not saying no but I would like a nice proposal. You know, one where blood isn’t part of the dress code.”
5. Zaria: She doesn’t see the first time you do the sign, and to be fair, it’s not really the best time or place to be asking her. When she does see, one eyebrow raises, and she shakes her head in disbelief. Then she refocuses on the battle, her current priority. Maybe it would help if you asked with a ring, and when she’s not focused on trying to confuse the enemy.
6. Michael: “What?” He’s standing there, staring at you completely dumbfounded. You have to drag him out of the line of fire as he continues gaping at you. Doesn’t appear you’ll be getting a coherent answer anytime soon.
7. Ramiel: It takes him a moment to process your words, but when he does, he starts to laugh. “Only you!” he exclaims, pushing an opponent back. “Let’s do it!”
8. Sabriel: Fair warning, you’ve not gotten to see Sabriel in a fight but you have to understand that her Angel Blade is an extremely offensive choice for an angel and also requires her to get in the thick of it. Getting her attention is nigh impossible, and when you do, you worry for a moment she’s mistaken you for an enemy. “Introducing you to movies might have been a mistake,” she finally says. “But why the hell not?”
9. Tom: The sleek wolf’s ears turn towards you, and his tail wags slightly. Well, that could be a yes, or it could be a twitch. You suppose you’ll have to find out when he’s shifted back.
10. Karyn: “Are you kidding me? You’re not, are you? Can we please focus on not dying first? I’ll marry you on Mars if we survive this!”
11. Leo: He stops, his head turning, eyes wide. “You mean it?” Upon your confirmation, he smiles. “Anytime, anyplace. Including now!”
12. Tadea: She pushes a strand of hair out of her face, casting luminous golden eyes on you. While mostly human, her nails are more like claws and her teeth are too large and sharp for her human mouth. “God I love you. Of course I’ll marry you.”
13. Iro: Her lips curl. “Well, points for novelty. First time I’ve been proposed in the middle of battle. I suppose I can make do.”
14. Aelius: He looks hurt by you proposal, his lips turned down and his eyes lowered. “Can we focus on making it through this first?” he asks. It sounds oddly like a refusal without outright saying no.
15. Ryder: He lights up. “A proposal while we stand on the corpses of our enemies? How could I refuse when you know me so well,” he purrs, dispatching someone else with a casual flick of his wrist.
What are the ROs type? You mentioned that Charleston has a thing for shorter Gabriels, like what kind of "thing" does the other ROs have? I hope that makes sense haha. Sorry if it doesn't, English isn't my first language ////>
Mmm, I try to stay away from “type” as that makes it seem like they have a strong preference–especially where the physical aspects are concerned they might react differently but it’s not a strong “I much prefer (for example) short guys to tall guys.” It’s more like “oh it’s nice that my boyfriend is shorter than me because he fits in my lap easier.” But personality wise, there is a preference for each of them (which is part of what makes a character interested or not interested in your Gabriel!)
Also your English makes perfect sense! Thank you for asking a question, especially in a language that isn’t your first <3
1. Alice: Someone who makes her feel stable, who gives her a sense that life doesn’t have to be lived fast and intense to get the most out of it.
2. Iain: You need to be a good parent to Daniel.
3. Stephanie: Someone who is curious about the world, or at least supports her curiosity about the world and is willing to try new things.
4. Charleston: Someone who understands the gravitas of their duties as police and his position with the pack, someone who makes him feel at ease and peaceful.
5. Tom: He’s not actively looking for someone, but someone who is there for him and Josie, someone who supports him and gives him hope.
6. Karyn: Someone who likes having fun. Life is too short to worry about rules all the time; get out there and do things rather than waiting around for something to happen.
7. Leo: Someone who cares about others and tries their best to help, especially when it’s not easy to do so.
8. Tadea: Someone who lets her relax and show her soft side--or someone who is soft and doesn’t mind her coarseness.
9. Ramiel: Someone who makes him believe that he’s more than the sum of his mistakes.
10. Michael: Gabriel.
11. Sabriel: Someone who restores her faith in the good of the world.
12. Iro: Someone who will help her win power and security.

15. Zaria: Someone who doesn’t mind quiet, who enjoys sitting together in silence and refined things.
If the ROs met the ideal version of themselves (i.e. what the RO ever hoped to be / or someone who is better then them in every single way), would the RO get along with this 'ideal version', feel threatened? Or hate what they have become / think this version is a jerk / show-off etc? ((Sorry i might not be explaining this very well))
Ooh, interesting question! (I was going to answer it straight but some of the characters wanted to answer it for themselves… so it’s in-character.)
1. Iain: He rubs the back of his neck. “I don’t know… sad? Like… we try our best every day. I mean, sure, we’ve all made mistakes and there are things I wish were different but–part of life is bungling along, striving to be better. If there was a version of myself who just was and there was no reason for it, or at least not something achievable? I think that could be a little disheartening. No ill will, but… not so cool.”
2. Alice: “I am the ideal version of me.”
3. Stephanie: “Better in every single way? I mean, that’s an interesting proposal, but what are they? A doppleganger? An alternate universe? They might walk like you, talk like you, but they’re not really you, are they? There’s only one you. Or, well, me. It’d be fun to run some tests though!”
4. Charleston: He snorts. “There’s shit all about my life that’s ‘ideal.’ I’m happy with who I am, and some ‘perfect’ version of myself? Perfect by whose definition? He’d still have the same shitty past, he’d make the same stupid choices. Or he wouldn’t be me, and if he is me, there’s nothing to envy about him.”
5. Zaria: “I would love to meet this perfect version of myself. We can see if she is as superior as she seems to think.”
6. Tom: “The only thing that the ‘ideal’ version of myself would have that I don’t is Marie. Maybe he’s a better pack leader, a better businessman, maybe a better father. But he doesn’t have my Josie, or my pack and family. So I would hope he enjoys his life and what he has.”
7. Karyn: “Excuse me? Ah hell no. She had better teach me all her tricks or else then we’ll get into a fight.”
8. Leo: “So, uh… nice to meet him? Or me? I mean… I guess I’d want to know how he got to be the way he is? Except–not too many spoilers. I want to learn for myself, not be handed like a cheat book or something.”
9. Tadea: “Show-off.”
10. Michael: “That’s–I mean, I know I’ve made mistakes but–but I’m trying to own up for them and he can’t just–he can’t just come in like Mister Perfect and everything is fine that’s not–he wasn’t here, he doesn’t know–not real! Fake!”
11. Sabriel: “Good. She can help with some of the paperwork then.”
12. Ramiel: “Well, it’s easy to be a better version of yourself when the standard is so low, isn’t it?”
13. Iro: “Darling, she’s certainly not better. That said, double the fun, am I right?”
14. Aelius: He doesn’t say anything, but the slant of his mouth and the tightness around his eyes indicates he doesn’t seem to like
15. Ryder: “Oh so he’s already conquered his planet? No? Then he should get out of here before his presence becomes irksome. And if he has, then he should get back to ruling it.”
