“I just realized what I got myself into. Again.”
buzzfeed unsolved starters / acc / @azirfell
the laughter as it peels from your raw throat still sounds more like a hiss than he ever intended to. perhaps at your deepening core you’ll always be the serpent in the garden. a blight to the human race, a few words to eve and you got all of humanity kicked out of the garden of eden. you will always be the snake who did that. but somewhere you became more than that. you both became more than that.
somewhere the angel of the eastern gate, became the old man in a bookshop and you became the old man with plants. somewhere between dining in far too expensive restaurants and drinking wine from the 1920s. somewhere between the beginning and the end you stopped being simply an angel and a demon and became real people with personality and choices.
what he’s gotten himself into again. such a silly phrase, they’ve been into this ever since the all mighty in all her wisdom put you two together on the edge of eden. or maybe no fates had decided that you but yourselves. angels and demons had just as much capacity to make choices as humans do. and you’re both the proof.
would it truly be unwelcomed to make choice now for the both of you. to pull the angel along by the hand and drag him into the outer reaches of the cosmos, safe from the end and all who wish to cause it. but you’ve already offered that choice, and watched him reject it. rather stay on earth with all that would soon be gone then leave with you. perhaps it breaks your heart.
