XIV → Male and Female Created He Them

[one_that_leads]

The curse today is...very severe.

I have been watching the citizens in the streets.
Panicked, distressed.

There is nothing to be done but wait.
And keep them at bay.

I hope you are not affected, Lord Rosiel.
I want to be certain.

[ooc: *cough* Because, I mean, you can't necessarily tell with Rosiel. Not all the time. 'S canon. ... I have no excuses nor apologies.]

You... hope.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't know would be uncertain what to do if you were, Lord Rosiel.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

A first instruction: find a corset.

...not presently applicable, mind. Our present guest will be leaving us shortly.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Our guest.
Joshua's enemy, you mean.

For him, somehow?

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

Enemy, you say...?

An interesting concept.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

...I trust you remain unaffected, for the day? Proximity is otherwise unadvisable.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

How else could he be described?

Yes, I am unaffected for the day.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

Rival.

Most excellent. Obviously, the boy can't be bothered with reason - and he won't see me, just as obviously.

Care after him, if you've the patience - he's wearing mine thin. Resolve to let him be, otherwise.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Ah. Of course.

Yes, Lord Rosiel.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

Is that all you can think to say, man?

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

What more should I say?

I shall care after him.
And, if he tries my patience, I will let him be.

I've other duties to attend to as well.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

This lack of initiative would be precisely why you've never been promoted, you know.

Your career's in tatters. Ti~sk.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Lord Rosiel, you yourself said there's no purpose for those things here.

Promotion, careers.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

And you just take my words for their given?

Truly. How domestic.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

...

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

I do not, Lord Rosiel.

[one-of-heaven.livejournal.com]

Of course not.

[againstgod.livejournal.com]

He isn't.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Yes, I know.
Now.

He wasn't distraught enough to be.

[againstgod.livejournal.com]

What about Joshua, Katan?

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

What about him?

[againstgod.livejournal.com]

I saw his last message in the Network. Trouble in Paradise?

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

There was a situation.

It has been resolved.
Mostly.

[againstgod.livejournal.com]

Mm?

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

The rival will be returned.
Joshua will be seen to.

There will be more to follow.

[againstgod.livejournal.com]

You have been busy.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

As is expected of me.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Rosiel as a girl wouldn't be much different anyway.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Perhaps not much in appearance.
He's fooled some with that.

His mood would be different today, though.
If he'd been so cursed.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Ahhh...yeah, you've a point there. Wait, that'd be upsetting to him?

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

Any change like that, out of his control, would be upsetting.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Oh, got it. Rosiel's a control freak.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

I had thought you knew already.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Sorta. I hadn't really narrowed it down into words yet.

[one-that-leads.livejournal.com]

I'm simplifying matters too.
