reignite | ★ ( superhell 🔥 lavi )

[T_T

Lavi will follow behind, hopping up on the horse next to hers. He looks at the pole that he's assuming that he's supposed to hold onto,]

Yeah... [thinks of the weedy's knife] Maybe we gotta look closer to find 'em?

[since they're both situated, the carousel slowly starts to move.]

[ /blows kiss.

when it starts to move, Uriel looks around- is it automatic? ]

If it only moves around... is this a children's toy?

[Lavi pauses, but as they finish one whole revolution, he looks around at the twinkling lights and the tinny music,]

Definitely not the merry go round I was thinking of... Maybe it's broken.

[lavi says, as the whole carousel suddenly picks up speed -- ]

What th--

[ fuck?! why is it speeding up? or is she just imagining it... no, wait, it's definitely speeding up!!! ]

[IT'S SPEEDING UP!!]

Holy -- !! [wait can he say that -- OH MY GOD IT'S FASTER NOW HELP, lavi grips on for dear life but like the entire lower half of his body is tilting off his horse thanks to the force of gravity or however it works,

anyway he'll probably start screaming]

[ Lavi is a good boy and clinging on for dear life, but as it starts to speed up even faster... Uriel is sensing Danger and already just

jumping right off. her wings spread and flare out a bit to steady herself so she doesn't go crash landing into the ground or anything. but ]

..Hang on tightly, Junior! I'm sure it'll be fine! [ ...MAYBE. ]

[MAYBE? anyway i got a six so lavi gets yeeted off almost right after she says that, probably in her direction, does she dodge]

[ i rolled a fucken ONE!!!!!! AHHHH so no, she does not dodge, she gets fully body slammed into. ]

[HELP ME!!!!! SOMEHOW, MIRACULOUSLY, AS LAVI SLAMS INTO URIEL, HE DOESN'T EVEN GET A BUMP ON THE HEAD???

uriel can just have the baggage of +1 teenage boy who, while uninjured, tries to get to his feet and immediately falls again]

Oh god -- the world's spinnin'....

[ Uriel is suffering in comparison, from the 1 to a 5 roll. ]

Ugh... off! [ SHOVES HIM OFF. HER BODY ACHES. ]

[the dice are so mean to uriel and for what

lavi gets shoved OFF]

-- Sorry!! Sorry, ugh......

[HE LANDS ON THE GROUND AND TRIES NOT TO DRY HEAVE]

[ the orv gods cursed me. ]

..Are you alright? [ she forgets how fragile you mortals can be... ]

[DONT JUST FORGET URIEL

Lavi rolls over to a sitting position,]

M'fine. Been through plenty of worse things than this.

Guess it wasn't a children's toy after all.

[ WHAT ]

Some children would be strong enough to withstand it with a good Sponsorship but, I guess not otherwise.

[ what kinda children... ] Is everything here going to be like that?

Think it's a safe bet to assume.

[standing up and shaking his limbs out,]

What do you mean by 'sponsorship'?

[THAT'S NOT A BIBLICAL TERM]

It's a contract. Constellations like myself are capable of sponsoring those lesser than us- to provide them a boon of sorts. We can offer a share of our abilities, and a Nebula to support them.

[ SPONSORSHIP. ]

[his one eye is all big and wide]

You call yourselves Constellations? And the sharing -- is that like God lending Moses his powers?

It's a broad kind of term- Constellations is what you call all of us, but not all of them are archangels like myself. Sometimes, they're demi-gods, those once human from old legends, a dragon.. and so on.

[ ... ponders on that. ] Something like that? [ SHE GUESSES??? ]

[hmmmm???]

So... you gotta be well-known to count as a Constellation?

Mmm, more that you have to earn a certain amount of strong Stories.

[ a thoughtful hum. ] The world I'm from relies on Stories in general.

[somewhere yjh is beating up lavi for thinking this is cool]

What kinda Stories do you have?

What kind of Stories do you suppose the Demon-Like Judge of Fire has?

[ i wish orv told me what it was. ]

[STOP CRIES WHERE ARE THE SIDE STORIES SINGSHONG]

Hmm... Something like the 'Homily on the Archangel Uriel'?

[thinking, then as if he's reciting something from memory]

'A Miracle of the Archangel Uriel Worked for Abba Giyorgis of Gasǝč̣č̣a', where the angel Uriel filled a vessel with the blood of Christ, then sprinkled his blood on different places in Ethiopia.

[ give us more uriel spotlight that isn't suffering and pain as 999 uriel ]

Those are new to me.

[ seriously, where did he come up with that last one??? ]

[HE'S A NERD HE READ ABOUT IT]

Yeah? Might be because they're not part of Bible. Well, the standard version, anyway. You're pretty important in Ethiopian Orthodox iconography.

[he tilts his head]

...Though, they usually describe you as a guy.
