06 | would that be fair if Messiah came and there was no one there?

[alephbet]

Characters: Aleph and you!
Setting: Meadow floor
Format: Starting with action brackets, will match anything.
Summary: Aleph keeps warm in the cold; unfortunately that means...
Warnings: Dick in a chariot.

[There were certain ways to keep warm in the cold, and building a campfire was tried and true. Aleph wasn't going to argue with that. His hands were cold enough that he wasn't going to waste time with traditional methods, however.

His unconventional methods included Mara. He was, after all, a powerful demon with mighty fire attacks.

Therefore: those who wish to huddle around the campfire on the meadow floor will have to share space with a shivering Aleph, and with the giant penis in a chariot that occasionally blows fire to keep the wood burning.]

I admit, I am one of those people, but these demons seem rather..nice. However, I imagine most people meet them expecting something a bit different.

[alephbet]

Expecting someone to act a certain way based on their race will only get you in trouble.

[lightofhumanity]

Please know that I do know that and that I do not think people will do this or that solely because of their race or species. I am just letting you know that there are people out there who are like that..even if I do not agree with them.

[alephbet]

I know, I know. You seem pretty wise.

[lightofhumanity]

...You also seem to be rather clever. I am happy that you know that I am not that sort of person though..although, hopefully you do not run into too many people like that here.

[alephbet]

Hopefully not. We're fighting the administrators and not each other.

[lightofhumanity]

It would be foolish and pointless if we started fighting amongst each other..despite what might have happened in other universes.

[alephbet]

Exactly. There are some people I can't ask to forgive me, but I won't aggravate them here.

[lightofhumanity]

And there may be people here I do not fully trust, but I shall not be looking to start fights.

..If you do not mind my asking, what are you asking people to forgive you for?

[alephbet]

Killing God. I don't regret it - my God was horrible - but what He means to some people means that they can't work with me.

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos paused for a moment at that and..smiled. Killing god..it was probably impossible to do so in his universe, but it was interesting to meet a person who had in theirs.]

I see..I can see why some people would have trouble swallowing that fact. However, it does not bother me.

[alephbet]

I'm glad that we can be friends.

[lightofhumanity]

So am I.

[Not that chaos wasn't expecting to become Aleph's friend.]

[alephbet]

Do you often come to the meadow?

[lightofhumanity]

Not usually, but since people have come here to get warm, thanks to the cold temperatures, I have come here as well to provide aid wherever I can.

[alephbet]

That's pretty thoughtful of you.

[lightofhumanity]

I suppose so. I enjoy helping people, so I try my best to do so.

[alephbet]

I can sympathize with that point of view.

[lightofhumanity]

I am glad to hear that. It is always nice to find people who are willing to help others.

[alephbet]

I guess I have a Messiah complex, or something.

[Heh.]

[lightofhumanity]

[And that was not the right phrase to use with chaos. For an instant, he looks terribly sad..but the happy mask goes up quickly again.]

I see..I understand. I suppose I have one myself, in a way.

[alephbet]

...It's funny if you know I'm my world's Messiah. So, I guess it wasn't funny at all.

[lightofhumanity]

[Well, that was unexpected..but not unwelcome. chaos knew that this person wasn't the same as The Messiah he knew..but a genuine smile actually filled his face this time.]

No, it is a little funny, now that I know. Hopefully your life as a Messiah was not too harsh.

[In chaos's world, 'Jesus' was made of two parts: The Messiah, who did the speaking, and chaos, who did the miracles.]

[alephbet]

It's the only life I've known, and a lot of what makes me myself. So I can't really comment.

[There were things he would have rather not had to do, certainly. But... he knows someone had to do them.]

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos nodded at that.]

I understand. You cannot change your role, and take the harshness with the good points, since you know you cannot change.
