Enlightened In The Dark

[Misery]

((To Chaos))
"Red Infinity reports say they moved to Amsterdam. We can track them down from there. But I can't go with you when you meet them again. They wouldn't want me around...being Red Infinity and all."

I take Chaos' hand and we teleport to Amsterdam to start searching for his anarchist friends.

[Valodya Bassarov]

"I am familiar with Eugene Debs, he is very famous." Bassarov replies. He is not sure how Elijah could be the son of a man who lived in the early 1900s, but decides that anything is possible. Afterall, Bassarov is himself somewhat immortal due to Chornebogk. He writes down Andrew's address and hands it to Elijah.
"I hope we can talk later."
He turns to Zero
"Ready to go to Capital City?"
He puts on his black jacket and waits by the door for her.

[Irvine Kinneas]

I walk over to Simona and hug her, trying to show how kind I can be. I release the hug.

" So how was the League of the Godless? "

[Lemminkainen]

I see Hope with Calithin so I walk right up to her

"Listen, I think we should break off from these rebels and just go off adventuring again. I miss the old times where we used to hang out and have our own rebel group. It was a lot of fun."

[Simona Weil]

I didn't really expect a hug from Irvine.

"Oh it wasn't so bad. They only tortured me a little."

I smile, it is very nice to be back with everyone.

[Elijah Debs]

Elijah takes the paper from Bassarov and heads out the door. "Thanks." He is not used to the streets with Finnish names and normally is bad with directions, but after some effort, he manages to find Andrew's apartment. He knocks on the door and waits outside patiently. He likes Andrew. There is something tragic and lonely about him. But also something bright and hopeful. He feels called by his pain.
While he waits he goes over some things in his mind. He considers the appocolyptic angels and measures what threat they may pose to humans and to the world. He is certain that they can not do too much since Red Infinity would not allow that.
However, they can raise the bar on religious oppression, and even target atheistic rebels if ordered to.
He has never fought another angel before, and since he is only half angel, he is not sure how he would fare. He is not normally inclined to violence as it is.

[Irvine Kinneas]

" Well that's good. By the way, do you know where Paradox is? It's dull with all these boring people around. "

I reply, trying to see if Paradox is here yet.

[Andrew Kasher]

Andrew arrives at his own apartment. He does a few flips once he is inside, just for fun. He hasn't felt this happy in a while. Today, Andrew came to a realization: his personal fate is unimportant, since he has no idea what will happen in between his death and and now reagarding his own personal life. There are a few blurry ideas, but he chooses to ignore those. He doesn't want to know. The prospect of dying alone is disturbing, but he has come to terms with it, somewhat.

He really likes Elijah. He wonders if Elijah is related to the late Eugene Debs. Elijah is definitely old enough...

It's nice to have someone to talk to. Sayuka is in America, and Bassarov, Mischa, and Zero are always busy. He didn't really get a chance to get to know Linnea or Garrett, and Lysander just doesn't seem to have anything in common with Andrew, besides being part nymph. He is not particularly interested in politics, loud, charismatic, somewhat reckless, and not particularly interested in talking to Andrew anyway. The only thing he even said to Andrew was that his father wanted him to talk to him...

Hooray for my remarkable social skills, Andrew thinks sarcastically, but not in a depressed way.

[Linnea Korpela]

Linnea touches his bare chest, "Sometimes being an angel is more of a hassle then its worth. And my wings...are gone."
She looked away, not able to make eye contact.

[Simona Weil]

"I'm very sorry that you are bored Irvine. I don't know where Paradox is or if the cat will come back." I suppose I am very boring to someone like Irvine.

"I wish I was more entertaining, Irvine, but maybe some of these new anarchists can keep you occupied."

[Devin]

Devin stands, not bothering to wipe the mud that was dripping from his jacket and pants. He ran his hand through his hair backwards, forgetting he had mud on it. After he realized it, he did not care though, he just continued to do it.

"Anyway. I am sure there are more interesting people to talk to. I am by no means a fun guy to be with. Nice meeting you Annda..."

Devin slowly starts to walk away, his footsteps slowing as he passed in front of the store he had thought about getting a notebook at, but he continued on anyway. He knew he had two choices: Aquire a new notebook, only to know that the same would eventually happen, or go on without one and keep the now ruined notebook that held all his deepest feelings and thoughts in the form of his poems. He only had to determine which was more painful, and go with that one...

[Elijah Debs]

"Are you home?" he knocks louder. He considers that the directions could be wrong or maybe he just went to the wrong apartment. He saw a foreign film once about that something along that lines. Where a man got home late and went into the right apartment in the wrong apartment building. It wasn't a very deep plot.

[Andrew Kasher]

Andrew hears someone at the door and answers it.

"Oh... hi!" Andrew says, smiling.

[Garret thingysure]

"They'll grow back, so don't you worry."

I kiss her hand and really feel bad for all the lousey luck we've had.

[Elijah Debs]

"You mentioned earlier that you were interested in coffee. I got directions to your apartment from Bassarov, so I hope you don't mind that I stopped by without calling or announcing that I would. I hate to be rude."
He enters the apartment and looks around. The apartment is very well kept and tidy.
"You have a nice apartment. I should look into getting one. I have been staying in the afterlife more than on Earth ever since Red Infinity started hunting angels. I worry about the League of the Godless coming after me." he mentions as he looks around.
