Good Vibes and Inner Peace

Opal smiled and jokingly flipped her hair, “I know I am.” She laughed. “I’m not expecting a whole lot today from what I remember. I think some jewelry found in Greece, some crystals mined in different parts of Africa, and supposedly I’m getting a blade from somewhere. I wasn’t told a lot about it, I don’t know why though. If I had more things I don’t remember them. Alright, let me go and get your coffee.” Opal turned and walked away into her back room.

“I have a bit of beef with angels.”

“I’m only a little bit of a sadist.”

“Ooh, I can’t wait ‘til your soul is mine.”

“That’s not really how a contract works.”

“Do the right thing and just hail Satan.”

“Hey, kid. [opens trenchcoat] Wanna sell your soul?”

“I don’t know why people hate Satan so much. He’s pretty cool.” / “Oh yeah, Satan is the worst boss. Don’t tell him I said that.”

“Are my horns showing?”

“Hell is hot but so is Miami/L.A./etc.”

“And you thought you had daddy/mommy/parent issues.”

“This weapon is supposed to be holy.”

“I’m literally half god. How am I supposed to not be cocky?” / “You’re not cocky, but you’re a dick.”

“My family feuds have bigger consequences.”

“I thought that monster was supposed to be dead…”

“The difference between my parents and yours is that if I do something wrong, mine will send down a natural disaster.”

“I’m just saying, Hercules/Achilles/etc. was a dumbass.”

“Kinda wish I was atheist sometimes.”

“It’s not MY fault all these monsters want to kill me.”

misc.

“You don’t know what I can do with these powers.”

“What? That? It wasn’t me.”

“I wish I could ‘come out’ as nonhuman but I don’t think that would end well.”

“So apparently I was ‘Chosen’ or something.”

“I’m not like other girls/guys/people. Because I could literally murder you.”

“Sometimes I wish I was normal.” / “Don’t be so Hot Topic.”

“Do you mind keeping…all this…a secret?”

Opal looked up from her paperwork to watch him enter the store. “Well, well, well, look who it is” she chuckled. She walked over to the counter and leaned on it, “Here’s what I’ll do, I’ll go get you some coffee that I made this morning while I look in the back to see what came in today, deal?”
