[First all to be seen is an angry blond with two feathered wings protruding out his back over a ripped shirt. He steps in the fountain, shouts things at the sky, turns to leave, then stops, staring right at the screen.]

Huh? What's this thing? [Camera angle tilts.] Looks like a camera. With a keyboard. Maybe a very small computer. But maybe a video camera, too, 'cause I'm on the screen, and it says it's recording. [Keeps examining it.]

Uh. Whatever. I don't have time for this. [Angle changes as he's about to put it down, then he suddenly stops and quickly it's pulled back to this face.]

Wait! Does this pick up sound? Can you hear me? God, you asshole?! Sara? Kurai? Lucifer? Uriel? Michael? ANYONE? What the hell is going on out there? I came in to find God and he's not here? [An arm flings out in irritation to gesture at his surroundings.]

Where are you? You hiding from me? Turning coward NOW, after everything?

We have something to settle, and I need to take Sara back and return the world the way it was. So get out here and stop playing these illusion games!

[He's quiet then and stares at the device while pushing at buttons on the screen, but it just goes to voice.]

Crap. Still says it's recording something. How do I shut this thing off....[Either he finally figures it out, or it turns off by itself.]



[ooc: For those by the fountain feel free to greet him in person.]

And the rest of the City?

[beyourarmy]

[And his high spirits fall some.] Dammit!

Good point. ...and I should probably think this out better, too. Lack of planning works sometimes, but I wouldn't want to cause anyone else trouble with this. Like...finding out who wants to stay here and who would want to go home. 'Cause what if some of them don't want to? Or can't?

[Or he wants to make you stay so he knows somewhere there is a Katan that still has his head.]

[Video;]

[one_that_leads]

Yes.

[Even Rosiel's creeping madness seems to have slowed here in the City...]

[Video;]

[beyourarmy]

Well.... [He turns in the direction of the carousal, still uncertain where over there is the deity office anyway.]

Thanks for the reminder.

[Yeah, Setsuna doesn't want to be responsible for ending that.]

[Video;]

[one_that_leads]

[He nods a little.

And then there is a long--prolonged, even--silence. He's considering something...and with care...

Then:]

I wish you well. Setsuna Mudou.

[beyourarmy]

[Dammit, Katan. Why'd you end up having to be so moe, a woobie such a nice guy?]

It's not like I'm going anywhere anytime soon. But thanks.

You better take care of yourself. [He knows better, though. Katan doesn't care, and probably won't look out for his own well being no matter what.]

[Video;]

[one_that_leads]

[Yeah, no. It's Rosiel first, Katan second.]

I will try.

[Total woobie.]

[Video;]

[beyourarmy]

You better.

[Dammit. He didn't want to like Katan.] 'Cause one day I wanna understand better why you're so loyal to that guy.

[Utterly. He's adorable.]

[Video;]

[one_that_leads]

You can try.

But I think you cannot know.

[Video;]

[beyourarmy]

Hey, you never know. I just might. And if not, I'm gonna at least try.

So that's a promise. You and I are gonna sit down and have a chat one day. Not on this stupid metal thing, either.

[Video;]

[one_that_leads]

One day.
