Calling all you Angels

Fandom: Human Target
Rating: PG-13
Characters/Pairings: Guerrero, Chance
Summary: Written for this prompt on comment_fic: Human Target, Guerrero(/Chance), "How did you - ?" "Angel, dude." "As in - ?" "As in I am one."

( He should fight, should do...something. But. It was so much easier, this. Just lying here, eyes closed, listening to the guards’ strained grunts turn to barks of confusion, to sharp cries of surprise. )

chance, human target, guerrero

AHAHAHA, that was hilarious and wonderful. Your Guerrero-voice is spot on, I could hear everything he was saying, and I really liked the disjointed POV building up to the big reveal. This was excellent!

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. :D

Oh! I think this is the first fic I've read based in Chase's past. I love it! Makes me wonder how far back Chase and Guerrero go, since, clearly they've had a long and ... treacherous past together.

As for Angel!Guerrero... lovely! What a fun prompt! And you made it happen very, very well. <3
It just makes Guerrero's later 'guardian angel' actions... even more amazing.

Thanks so much for writing and posting this!
:D
You should definitely write more Human Target fic if you find yourself with the time. :)

Based on what we've seen so far, it seems like Chance's past holds a bevy of stories just waiting to be told. I hope that with the introduction of Baptiste, and after we've met Chance's old boss at the end of the season, we'll see more fics set during his days as an assassin. Until then, I do what I can. :)

I do plan to write more HT fic; I just have to balance it with the fics I'm writing for other fandoms.

Awesome. You're going to do more with this storyline, aren't you? Aren't you? *bambi eyes*

I might! I was actually pondering how angel!Guerrero came to be, well, not so angelic, and I've got some ideas rattling around for a story or two in that vein. It's tough for me to write for a series without more richly developed source material, but I think I can still tease a fic out of what we've got so far. :)

Yes! This! Guerrero is *definitely* a fallen angel. I was dubious before I read this, supernatural type stuff isn't really my genre, but I loved this - I think because your Guerrero-voice was spot on.

Thanks! Guerrero's a fun character to work with because he lets you get away with just about anything story wise; if anyone's fit to take existence as a supernatural being in stride, it's gotta be him.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

"But there are definitely benefits to being too glorious for the human eye to behold."
You know this is something that fascinates me about angelic mythology, the blinding light aspect, and it's potential for destruction - I really love how Guerrero sums it up so casually here.
