*he knew going out at night was an awful idea, even just to climb trees, but he can't spend all his time in one little apartment...*

*and now he here is. shot. again. for the third time in his life. and oh, it hurts.*

Fffffff this meme T_T

[Guriel puts a palm over the wound -- not to apply pressure, that's a human effort and Guriel's just inhuman enough to see it won't help. But if a little Grace can ease the pain . . .] Easy, Lester, I gotcha. I'm here.

WORD YO.

[whisky_ghost]

ICON.

[guriel]

I am a terrible person ;o;

[halfthemistake]

*his side--so much pain. but it's fading...?*

G-guriel?

/is also a terrible person

[guriel]

Yeah, it's me. [Guriel's got his wings out, this time, pale feathers flecked with falcon markings in grey and brown.] Just be easy, bro, I've got you.

<3

[halfthemistake]

*trying to look up... wings*

I'm gonna...?

<3!

[guriel]

[Guriel can't lie. And he wouldn't, anyway, lies don't help anything at moments like this.]

. . . yeah. I'm here to wait with you.

Sorry, Lester.

[halfthemistake]

*relaxing, limply*

I d-didn't... do anything wrong.

[guriel]

No. No, you didn't. [Guriel slides an arm around Lester's shoulders, lifting him up a little and hugging him at the same time.] You were just different. That's all. Not wrong, not bad. Just different.

[halfthemistake]

*it feels good. he's still afraid--but not as much*

...why? What was the point?

[guriel]

[Guriel wraps a wing around him.] This is what the Lord requires: to act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly. And you did those things. And you loved the people around you, gave them the chance to love you. That's the point. That's all it's ever been about.

[halfthemistake]

*soft feathers. eyes closed now. it's like being in a bed...*

Now they'll be... mmm. You know.

[guriel]

Yeah. But you don't have to worry about them now. I'll take care of them, me and Raph and Dad and my other brothers. I promise.

[halfthemistake]

Do you... take me away? ...to Larry?

[guriel]

No. No, I don't. [Guriel tightens his arm a little bit and adds quickly] My brother does. Azrael, my big brother. I'm just here to make sure you're not alone until he comes.
