[There's the scratch of someone hitting buttons on the communications device, and a quiet, rumbly mutter of - ] ... I do not know what that means. Why give me a phone if this is the end of the world? What will I do if I run out of minutes

Well, now I'm curious. What will you do if you run out of minutes?

[dowhatimust]

[Audio]

[Well hello there strange voice.]

I do not know. Not speak on the phone anymore? I do not know where to purchase minutes. [a frown in his voice.] ... I am still confused on how one can purchase time, as well.

[martyrtoscience]

Luckily enough for us, we've been given a completely unlimited cell phone plan in return for our services. [God, this is fun. All the entertaining people have been showing up recently.]

You usually need billions to buy time. That, or amazing genetics and an army of clones. [His clones never work, but his genetics are breathtaking.]

[dowhatimust]

Our ...services. Yes. I am also confused by this. I am to save worlds? All worlds? [A pause, then another frown.] And why would they pay me for it with human technology?

Hm. [Listen to the angel chew on that.] I have never found anything beneficial to either one of those in regards to time. But then again, I no longer see the use of having copies of the same thing. Originality ... is important.

[martyrtoscience]

That's what they tell us.

[But waaaaait, what is this talk of "human" technology, and "no longer" and all of this.]

Aren't you used to this "human" technology?

[dowhatimust]

Then I shall do what I must.

[He sighs softly as he looks at the phone.] I am afraid that it is quite beyond me. The modern has many wonders.

[martyrtoscience]

...When are you from?

[Yes, he's going to just ask, because he's not polite, and you are dodging the topic, and he wants to know, damn it.]

[dowhatimust]

[Castiel actually has to think about that one - there really wasn't a year...]

My first memory was of a lizard climbing out of the water onto land for the first time in history?

[martyrtoscience]

[Oh, come on.]

I'm glad to see you maintain a sense of humor, but I'm being serious.

[dowhatimust]

I am quite serious? I see no reason to lie about such things.

[He is rather puzzled by this man's scoffing tone.]

[martyrtoscience]

[One would think Castiel would be used to that by now.]

You honestly expect me to believe you were present at the beginning of evolution?

[dowhatimust]

[You'd think but honestly they're in a city where they have all been pulled across the galaxies and Castiel being at the beginning of evolution is 'weird'?]

I do not expect you to believe anything. Although it would be a pleasant change.

[martyrtoscience]

[Tesla knows other dimensions are possible. This is new.]

Oh?

[dowhatimust]

Yes. I find faith ... sadly lacking, these days. However, one cannot be surprised when God has decided to ... save His breath, so to speak.

[He would never again doubt his Father was Very Much Present. Not here. Not now.]

[martyrtoscience]

[Oh, now this is an interesting twist. Faith in God while admitting to evolution?]

Who could possibly blame Him?

[dowhatimust]

The line for that particular complaint runs around the corner.

[And is filled with angels.]
