Our Lady of Fandom, Wednesday

It was cold. Not that it bothered an angel much, but Gabriel still noticed. Cat had found a blanket to sleep on. Gabriel, sipping his coffee, told her: "You know, there might be penguins invading any minute."

Cat yawned.

[The church is open]

He peeked into the church, looking around for the, er... gentleman.

Gabriel looked up and gave Liir a strange smile. "Yes?"

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Haven't been by for a while," he said. "Just... wanted to drop off some lunch."

He held up a bag.

Gabriel took the bag. "Yes, now that you mention it. Haven't seen you in a while."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He shrugged.

He just hadn't been deal with much of anyone lately. It was easier.

"Summer rolls, baby back ribs, blueberry bread pudding, and chicken caesar wraps." He stepped in to put the bag on the back pew and seemed as if he was going to leave before he walked in and took a seat.

"You don't mind if I--"

He sort of gestured to the rest of the church in a way that meant 'stay here for a while?'

"Baby back ribs?" Gabriel looked amused. "Didn't think you ate babies here." Whether he was joking or not was har to tell. Liir's question was answered with a shrug. Gabriel didn't mind too much.

He just rolled his eyes to that.

"Old favorite from when I worked for the Witch," he said with a faint smile before closing his eyes and leaning on the pew in front of him.

"She ate babies?" Gabriel seemed to like the subject.

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"People said she did. They also said she was a hermaphrodite. A man. A demon. A harpy."

There was a moment's pause.

"It was a joke. Generally, she ate crackers and coddled eggs."

"Well, that would cause less problems with the public, I guess. They ever tried to burn her?"

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"They didn't have to. They sent a little girl to kill her.

"It worked."

[no-archangel.livejournal.com]

"Never underestimate little girls!" Gabriel looked quite amused.
