[ God. It has been an absolute nightmare. ]

Supposedly it is over now.

[jiaohua]

I will believe that when I see it.

[she has had no trust left in her since week 2.]

[boxcar]

Yeah, me too.

[ The fact that they've got this thing still just jailed and all their locations are going wacko is obviously extremely concerning. ]

The angels have been... usually delayed with their announcements anyway, but regardless they do answer, and hopefully with five of them, God, and seven weeks of this on our side, we'd all have learned our lessons.

[jiaohua]

[(me gazing at this stupid heavy package that got delivered way earlier than scheduled... i had someone coming to assemble furniture over the weekend who agreed to help me carry it up the stairs saturday morning because it was supposed to come friday night... if i had a marcoh irl he could just get it up the stairs for me...........)]

...we have definitely learned something from this.

[it's that the afterlife is awful.]

[boxcar]

[ NOOOO... you're right... Marcoh would be the friend you could call at literally any weird-ass hour and he'd come help... but also isn't it Tuesday. That's WAY earlier help. ]

I'm sure there's some takeaway lessons to be had here and there.

[ Maybe not all necessarily good takeaways but. Yeah. ]

[jiaohua]

[YEAH THAT'S WHY I WAS LIKE "WTF" WHEN I STEPPED INTO MY BUILDING AND SAW THIS GIANTASS BOX BY THE STAIRS AAAAAA]

Most certainly. I suppose it remains to be seen if we have learned enough to be allowed to go back.

[boxcar]

[ Stares off... and then. ]

If you are concerned, you can always try praying to the God here. Lucas told me about it, and they did actually answer.

[jiaohua]

...praying, huh.

[it's the logical thing to do, but like, illogically, she does not want to do it.]

[boxcar]

I don't think it has to be that serious, if you are not normally religious.

You could probably just ask.

[jiaohua]

...have you spoken with them at all? Or no?

[boxcar]

I spoke earlier today in the Church. Or... well, it was not a conversation. It was just that they answered.

[ It's slightly evident from his emotions and thoughts that this is not the norm for him and he's still somewhat surprised, like when something really unexpected but nice happens to you. ]

They really were quite kind. Had nothing but warm things to say regarding my concerns for Judgment Day.

[jiaohua]

[hmm.]

Well... that isn't so surprising.

[You're very hard on yourself, but you were one of the people who was kindest to me before I was killed. I don't think you have anything to be concerned about for Judgment Day either.

yes she did watch the execution. she still thinks he has nothing to worry about.]

[boxcar]

[ He's still got concerns but it's. Partially because of how he is but also because of how his upbringing has been. Judgment Day just evokes some serious Sodom and Gomorrah, the End of the World type shit to him and it's a little anxiety-inducing. ]

...Just that if you have nerves, it may be something worth considering.

[jiaohua]

[she nods a little.]

...what do you think is going to happen between now and then?

[boxcar]

We need to figure out where the angel Mary has replaced has gone, still. [ Not that they HAVE to. It's literally not their fault. But like... may as well, it's the good thing to do. ] And I'm sure, if nothing else, we would all like to give the "entity" a piece of our minds.

[jiaohua]

Right... Ariel.

[hmm. where is she, where is she...]

The guardian angels on our side were saying that they hoped she simply never made it here - that she is where she was before she would have come here to accept the job. But if we find any indication that she is in trobule, then... of course the right thing to do would be to help her. [and then she nods a little.] ...the "entity" has made us suffer enough that it should be made to truly understand the gravity of what it has done, somehow.

[boxcar]

That would be nice, but if she had signed up to begin with, then it is hard to imagine she did not try to contact anyone for so long.

[ Or maybe she really did just say fuck it, free vacation. Good for Ariel if so. But he nods. ]

I'm sure that beating them down would only reinforce the opinions they had in the first place. [ That we suck as a group and don't deserve redemption or whatever. However, while Marcoh IS a nice guy, he's definitely not a saint, and he is not that interested in being the metaphorical bigger man. ] Having to go through their own redemption course seems like the most fitting.

[ It's like being in endless summer SAT school. That's MY pitch. ]

[jiaohua]

[take the free vacation and run, ariel.]

So, what... "kill them with kindness"? Do you think that will work?

[...it might, actually. It would probably make them uncomfortable.]

[boxcar]

[ Thoughtshares the idea of everyone fucking being sickeningly sweet to the Entity and it just shriveling in their jail cell.




Definitely not Marcoh's first personal choice of action but it would, possibly, be funny. ]

[jiaohua]

[that thoughtshare startles a huff of a laugh out of her.

and then there's a stray thought -

It would be entertaining, but I don't know that it would be satisfying enough after what we have gone through.]

[boxcar]

I know. I doubt everyone can be convinced to let go of their anger, even if people can be convinced to be petty.

[ Marcoh knows he is not one of them, so. ]

Did you ever discuss anything of that sort over there?

[jiaohua]

I avoided the topic in my own conversations because I knew it would make me angry...

[and she's not cute when she's angry........]

[boxcar]

[ We should all be permitted to be angry at least once... yk... he nods, but like. ]

It does feel justified, but I understand if you would not want to be.

[ It's not pleasant. ]

[jiaohua]

[if she throws a tantrum now she will be so unproductive all week long...]

Mm... it's less that I don't want to be and more that I don't want to be judged for being angry.

[boxcar]

[ An awkward silence, and just. ]

If we were judged for being angry a lot of people would already have lost their chances, I think.

[ ...Me, most of all. ]
