1. Your brother is a dick.

2. What's your deal with Sally?

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

What has Castiel done now?

[He's ignoring that second part for now, because Angels Being Stupid is more important.]

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

He got drunk, and he turned into an asshole, and I kicked him out.

Every time he gets self-pitying he turns into an jerk.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

And you know why he's gotten this sudden rash of self-pity?

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

I know some of it, but I think he's not telling me everything.

He won't let me help, and I know I can.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

Whatever it is, is it fatal or does it involve my little brother losing his Grace?

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

He says he's dying.

Re: text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

Of course he does.

[Daddammit, Castiel, you're of zero use to him dead.]

He may be exaggerating. There isn't much that can outright kill an angel.

[And if he's going on drinking binges, clearly the Winchesters have been rubbing off on him. Their sense of melodrama may have rubbed off, too.]

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

Well, whenever he gets this way, he treats me badly, and I'm tired of it, so I kicked him out.

I wasn't really supposed to tell you about this.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

You've done nothing wrong. It's irresponsible of Castiel to hide the problem and lash out because nothing is solved.

It's very Winchester of him, and also very unhelpful. You're right to tell me, when out of anyone aboard, I may know what's wrong with him and how to fix it.

[Yes, Sera, tell Satan about everything. He'd like that.]

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

He's angry at God and I don't understand why. And now I'm angry at him, isn't it bad enough I can't speak, why does he ignore me?

I told Dean, but then, he'll just side with him-

What do you think is wrong with him? I can still hear the music of him, I don't understand how he can be dying.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

My first guess would be that his Grace is burning out, simply from how long he's been away from Heaven. Without seeing him myself, though, it's nothing more than conjecture.

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

Could I fix it?

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

You tell me.

The question is academic until there's a diagnosis, anyway.

Re: text.

[majestyofthethrone]

I don't know. Sometimes I can do things. With my voice. But it's not-

I fixed a boy once. He was crazy, and he heard me scream, and then he wasn't. But I killed something, too. Castiel won't talk to me about it.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

It's not reliable?

If you can't control it, it would be my professional opinion for you to refrain from trying to use it to fix Castiel. At the very least, leave it for a last resort. I'm not entirely sure how your voice could affect us in the first place, nevertheless if you used it incorrectly.

[Please leave angel fixing to the professionals.]

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

I think it's reliable, if I knew how it worked.

You didn't answer my question about Sally.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

My vessel closely resembles someone from her universe, and she has mistaken me for him.

[He simply chooses not to correct her. It's more interesting that way.]

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

Someone she likes?

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

Not even in the slightest.

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

Can I help? You. Be disliked.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

My, Seraphim. Is that a little hostility that I detect? Is there something that I should know about yourself and Sally?

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

Its no great mystery, she hates me for a stupid reason, and I'm not in the mood to indulge it. So why not just dislike her back?

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

There's a certain pettiness to it.

[Pot, meet kettle.]

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

So? I don't see any reason that I have to take the moral high ground.

text.

[wentdowntogeorgia]

So I've gathered.

You said she hates you for something stupid. What is it?

text.

[majestyofthethrone]

I fought with Sirius.

angel radio. backdated to near the start of the plot

[rebelled]

Was that you?

[there's nothing else sent at first. he's still trying to wrap his mind around the fact that he finally feels more whole. that, even though he knows where that power had come from, he had still chosen to take those souls for himself. (it was wrong. he knows that. but--)]

Did you leave them for me? I need to know.

angel radio

[wentdowntogeorgia]

I've been a little too busy to leave surprises for you, Castiel. What have you been picking up?

[Castiel, what did you do and how stupid was it.]

angel radio

[rebelled]

[he has no idea whether this is lucifer playing games with him, or whether the archangel is being serious. which is why there's a few moments delay before he replies.]

The souls. You're the only one here who--

It has to have been you.

angel radio

[wentdowntogeorgia]

You've supplemented your Grace with souls.

[Wow, Castiel, you're really scraping the bottom of the barrel, aren't you?]

I'm not your keeper, Castiel, and I'm certainly not going to spoon-feed you souls so that you can support yourself. If you want my help, you know how to ask for it. But color me all sorts of surprised at your... opportunism. I didn't think you had it in you.

angel radio

[rebelled]

I was dying, Lucifer. I had no choice. I needed--

[the realization that he's probably saying too much is enough to have him cut off there. he hadn't talked to lucifer about any of this before. hadn't needed to because, family or not, they aren't friends. he had no reason to.]

If that wasn't you, then who? Nobody else here would do something like this.

message received 5/7; post jump

[majestyofthethrone]

[At first, it's audio; a stanza of music, but it sounds warped and weird. It plays and keeps playing, repeating and warping, and if he listens to the whole thing it lasts over an hour, and then another, music warping and the distortion growing. It's frantic, the fear in it clear. It's like someone begging, someone begging to be saved, someone begging for help.

And then the audio cuts out.

Another message, this one a series of numbers, an immense equation.

And then a third message, a final one. This one comes in the form of letters, except that if Lucifer is clever, he can read them as music; it's violin music, written out in letter form, like the kind of music that is taught to beginners. Sometimes the letters cut out, garbled, but someone with a good knowledge of musical theory could piece it together; it's violin piece that's almost five hours long, the beginning the music of the Throne, the song of Seraphim, but then it changes, it evolves into something enormous, majestic, and then-

-and then it winds its way into an apology.

It's an apology. A love letter.

It's a goodbye.]
