angel sanctuary - alexiel

( Video )

( Alexiel's hands are sliding over the scales of a most curious serpent. The diamond scales of the creature catch the light and sparkle brilliantly. After admiring the snake's beauty in silence, the angel smiles sadly. )

Farewell. ( She exhales softly and lays her head down, eyes never leaving her new pet. ) Your name is Vale.

( With the ease of someone who has a soft-spot for animals, Alexiel picks up the serpent and gently wraps it - him - around her neck. Soon the serpent is nestled contentedly against her hair. )

While not the most emotionally expressive of pets, they do have a certain charm.

I think he expresses his emotions just fine.

Why did you say goodbye?

Vale is a farewell present.

Then someone left...

A lot of people are leaving.

So it seems.

Did you lose someone?

Yeah, a couple.

I'm really sorry, ma'am. Miss.

My name is Alexiel. ( And she is used to loss. ) Did they leave anything behind?

It's good to meet you, Miss Alexiel, and they didn't. I don't think they even knew they were going to leave.

Why name it only to part ways? [He assumed she was speaking to the snake.]

Are you planning on giving it to someone?

He was so literal minded.

I didn't mind that.

I wasn't speaking to the serpent.

That is common from what I've seen. All you have are your memories.

It was entertaining. At times.

A brief entertainment: is that how you will remember him?

That and the annoyance he brought on. Plus, what he's done to Setsuna.

I never forget those things.
