001: first prayer, voice-video

"If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee: And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone." Poor baby.

The prophets wrote that Jesus, having resurrected, first presented himself to Mary Magdalene, who did not recognize him. Well, that's a classical telling. 'The women' is a more accurate translation. So I did that. They had cookies. [ A thoughtful clucking sound is attached to the disassociated voice. ] Then he came down upon his disciples, and broke bread with them. Would you be surprised to know just how many Satanists there are in Florida? They were very accommodating.

[ The camera is turned upwards. Here, at last, is an (unfortunately) familiar face for those who have been here for a while. Lucifer doesn't look like much otherwise, just another steely eyed, rough featured imPort making his introductions. There are wounds healing on his - admittedly pale - face that look like they might have been some kind of deep tissue radiation burn. Still, he doesn't seem to be in any pain--he looks kind of cheerful. ]

I really don't know what I did to deserve a military escort, but I'm more than happy to know that I've engendered such respect in the human population here. Well--respect; fear; one is so very much like the other.

Now then, why don't we start with some introductions. [ He tapped his lip with one finger, considering where to start. ] I have a number of names, most largely unnecessary, but Lucifer will do. For the uneducated amongst you, that means I'm an archangel. For the heathens--well, sucks to be you; you have fun with that. [ The amusement is clear in the crinkles about his eyes. ] Furthermore, I'm delighted to announce that very soon I'll be usurping the airtime of a televangelist near you. Television exposure, a sponsorship from DRV Games, the adoration of my fans-- [ He drawls, it's difficult to tell whether or not he's being sarcastic: ] It's like a dream come true.

Oh, and Dean? Hello darling. Let's have a little chat, shall we? Happy belated Easter, chickens.

[ A quick nod. ]

I know of a vacant flat in my building. Two bedrooms, so that might be a bit small if you've got lots of roommates, but it'd be something. I could ask around at work to see if anyone knows of any others, as well. Have you got the money for a security deposit and all that?

That'd be too small. [She'd definitely want to make sure that Miles can get away.] But the government may be willing to move him if we make a request. We're all registered.

[ She looks a little troubled by that possibility. ]

Yeah...

[ Oh. A little more energetically: ]

What if we do a mass petition? Then it's not just you asking for this. If he gets offended, it wouldn't make any special target out of all of you.

That might help, but ... I don't think it's going to end well either way. [Their conversation is already becoming heated.]

I'll do what I can to handle it myself.

[ A little nod, a bit tentative. ]

All right. Just - [ A breath - ] If you need me, call me. All right? He's really powerful from everything that I've heard, but I haven't met a power yet that I haven't been able to nullify. [ Sort of. ] So I can help protect you.
standardization: (so there.)

[She breathes out.]

Protection from the protection he claims to be offering. I'll call you first thing, Kitty.

[If it proves to be trouble.]

[ A nod. ]

I'll give you a special ringtone so I'll know to pick up.

Good luck.

[After a beat, her shoulders slump forward. Asami wishes she had her friends here. They're much better at this than her.]

Thank you.
