Drabble: The Power of Mercy
For verav who wanted a drabble based on this icon:
The Power of Mercy
For the first time in decades he finds himself speechless, struck dumb by this vision before him. Not like it's the first person he's chained up - or the hundredth - but this is different. This is Angel. The closest thing he has to God. The feeling is so overwhelming he has to take a step back, put a distance between them in order to be able to really embrace this. Angel. At his mercy. He could so easily kill him. So easily drive a stake through that black pitiful heart. But he doesn't.
So this is what it feels like. Being God.
