005: Audio (Black Bars Curse)

[itsjustafruit]

What are you gawking at? Never seen a naked person before?

Look, can you car--

[Someone, presumably whomever Crowley's speaking to, makes an unintelligible comment and starts to laugh until the laugh is cut off, turning to a strangled scream that recedes as though the screamer is running very far away, very fast.]

Inconvenient.

[Crowley is naked, and per canon, angels (which Crowley started out as, tyvm) are "sexless unless they really want to make an effort." He's not making the effort, and he has acquired the turntable he was so... ahem... excited by, so he's unwilling to turn into a snake and leave it behind. Naked, Ken doll!Crowley at your service for action, voice, or video that the City will happily turn on at inconvenient moments.]

Comments

action because i'm terrible

[godoftricks]

[ Loki raises one brow in a perfect arch. ]

If you're going to look like that, it's rather inevitable you'll draw attention.

action because terrible is joy

[itsjustafruit]

[Not impressed Loki]

It's not my lookout if all of you are disappointed in your crotchwatching. I don't have that while biological imperative thing going on. Yay me.

[godoftricks]

That is not what I was referring to. Quite the contrary; in fact I'm sure the lack of that imperative serves you well.

But nudity of any nature will draw the gaze of onlookers. Perhaps you enjoy the attention.

[itsjustafruit]

Tch. It's a curse.

[godoftricks]

An interesting curse.

Are you embarrassed by this form?

[itsjustafruit]

Why would I be? [It's his favorite after all.]

[godoftricks]

It would seem to me that a curse, as such, should bring a degree of discomfort for the cursed. You are unconcerned. It is...surprising that they would afflict you with something not unpleasant.

[itsjustafruit]

[Crowley rather specializes in ripple effects.]

It isn't unpleasant to me, but there have been several people who have too much attachment to their own ideas of male anatomy who may have nightmares tonight in my place.

[godoftricks]

[ Well, that makes him laugh. ]

Yes, I do not doubt it. Their adherence to such things is noteworthy indeed...though, in your case, hardly nightmarish. The lack of such distraction must be welcome.

[itsjustafruit]

Why would I welcome the lack of something I've never had? It's how it should be. You get one of my kind reproducing and it's time to saddle up the hourses, crack open the seals, and blow the trumps. The next thing you know, monsters are rising from the sea, dogs and cats are sleeping together, and you can't find a decent sushi restaurant to save your life.

[godoftricks]

That sounds like quite a bit of fun, really. I can't imagine why you'd wish to avoid it.

[itsjustafruit]

Because I'm thinking about what comes after all that fun you're stuck on.

[godoftricks]

Which would be?

[itsjustafruit]

Hell.

Or Heaven for that matter. Either way it's the end to all things enjoyable for old Crowley.

[godoftricks]

Only if you die in the process.

[itsjustafruit]

That's not how it works. It's like this, step a, Antichrist; step b, Armageddon; step c, war between Heaven and Hell; step d, one side wins and everyone loses.

Nowhere in there do I have to die for things to go straight to shit.

[godoftricks]

But if you win, more's the better - for you, at any rate.

[itsjustafruit]

Do I look like Lucifer to you?

[godoftricks]

I have never met him. [ He glances down. ] But you do not look human, so I infer that you are not one, and that you have chosen a side.

[itsjustafruit]

[Chosen might be a little strong.]

Hell has better music.

[godoftricks]

And better company, I imagine.
