Logan/Laviah.

Logan: what’s worse: the ugly truth, or a pretty lie?

“I want to say an ugly truth but I know that a pretty lie is worse.” Eydie smoothed her skirt, the cheap fabric sticking to her newly rough hands. “I don’t… I don’t like being lied to.” She shook her head. “Levi wouldn’t lie to be, so I guess I’m not used to people just lying right to my face.”

Not like my parents did.

Laviah: if you could spend a day in the life of anyone, who would it be?

“I used to say that I wanted to be an angel.” Eydie kept her eyes trained to the ground. “But I think I would just want to be someone that doesn’t know about angels and the like. Someone non-religious. Someone that doesn’t have all these expectations of how she has to be.” Her tongue darted out. “I’d want to have a career or something. Maybe?”

The Last Supper/Girl with a Pearl Earring.

The Last Supper: Are you religious at all?

Eydie pursed her lips, pouting as she thought about how to answer the question. It was obvious from the clothes that she wore ( Walmart specials ) that she wasn’t exactly a person that had her finger on the pulse of everything hip. The navy blue button down was buttoned to the top, collar crumpled but obviously attempted to be righted, and the cream cardigan was being twisted in her hands as she thought.

If she were to be honest, both her and Levi looked like they were about to come up to someone in the street and ask if they’d ‘heard the good word’ even though they weren’t trying to.

She bit the inside of her cheek. Opened her mouth to speak, but the words wouldn’t come out. She swallowed.

“I— yes, um, yeah I think so at least.” Eydie frowned. “I don’t know.”

Girl with a Pearl Earring: Do you like to wear jewelry? What are your favorite pieces of jewelry and approximately how much are they worth?

“I had a small promise ring but Levi and I sold it for cash — I would be lying if I said I missed it.”

Ramiel/Levi.

Ramiel: describe a moment when you felt all was lost.

Zadkiel dropped to their knees, tears in their prophet’s eyes — in their eyes — the hollow ache in their chest was maddening. There was almost nothing that they would not do to get back into God’s good graces; almost nothing they wouldn’t do to get their grace back.

But their prayers weren’t answered.

The whispered pleas were ignored, and it was the first time that Zadkiel felt the emptiness that their shredded remnants of grace had left them with. God wouldn’t be saving them. God didn’t care.

They had chosen humanity, and for that God turned His back on His creation.

Levi: what line can never be uncrossed?

Simeon frowned, their mouth pinching together. They searched their coffee cup for the right answer and came up wanting. “I don’t know,” they said, shaking their head, “at least… nothing that I want to tell you.”

A line that can never be uncrossed is when you choose humanity over divinity, Simeon thought, you will never be holy again after that.

They just smiled.

Starry Night/The Creation of Adam.

Starry Night: Do you enjoy watching the sky and daydreaming?

“I do.” Simeon kept the words simple, knowing that they were on thin ice with saying the wrong thing. With letting their previous life be known — letting the other bounty hunters know that they used to be the very thing that they were hunting; that they were no better than any other angel, having stolen the body of a prophet to use as their own.

“How about yourself?” they asked the other hunter talking to them, “What makes you dream?”

The Creation of Adam: What is your favourite story from Mythology? Do you have any favourite Fables or Fairytales?

A twitch of a smile. “The Binding of Isaac.” They rolled their shoulder, still sore from being cramped in the vehicle that Sloane and them had stolen a couple hundred miles back. “I’ve heard that it was the angel Zadkiel that stopped Abraham from sacrificing Isaac.” They flicked their eyes up to the other hunter. “The angel didn’t want to cause more death. And that is some sort of story I can get behind.”

Wanderer above the Sea of Fog/Christina's World.

Wanderer above the Sea of Fog: Do you tend to get lost easily?

“Seriously? Fucking Google Maps, ever heard of it??”

Logan would not make it to his local grocery store without Google Maps. 

Christina’s World: Is there anything you long for?

“I mean, according to every movie about the future when I was growing up, I should have had a flying car by now. So that’d be nice.”
