❛  why did you leave without saying goodbye?  ❜ - from charlie at @hellredeem

"Ah'...." He opened his mouth, only to close it again. He was a lot of things, sure, but a lot of those things had also changed over the last months. And one thing he was incredibly bad at now? Lying. Especially to Charlie. Ever since Husk had sang a little diddy to him on the corner, Angel had felt his walls coming down more and more, and felt himself become more and more vulnerable. Charlie was hurt - he could tell. He refused to hurt her again.

"Ah' felt like ah' needed t'. T' protect th' hotel." His voice was firm, not a shred of deceit there. He truly felt that he had made the right choice, even if it had hurt others. Short-term consequence for long-term reward, that sort of thing. Maybe he should have consulted the others first. Maybe he should have thought about the impact it would have made. But. He needed to keep them safe.

“ you   uh   …   y’sure   he   ain’t   in   there? ”   it’s   definitely   not   her   place   to   question   the   fucking   princess   of   hell.   but   ..   millie’s   still   the   one   peering   around   side   of   her   legs ,   looking   further   into   the   hotel   that   is   supposed   to   be   the   housing   for   their   most   recent   client.   this   was   the   worst   part   of   the   job ,   tracking   down   the   guys   whose   payments   didn’t   come   through   like   promised.   this   is   how   she   dies—   isn’t   it?   “ no   offense!   ‘m   not   trying   to   doubt   you   or   nothing ,   your   majesty? ”   formal   address   tastes   funny   on   her   tongue.   there’s   a   reason   people   like   charlie   morningstar   don’t   venture   down   to   imp   city.   “ just   …   he   gave   us   this   address.   mentioned   you   by   name   and   everythin’. ”  

❝  oh,  i  know  REDEMPTION  is  supposed  to  be  the  entire  point,  my  dear. ❞  there  is  still  a  touch  of  mockery  in  the  radio  demon's  voice  as  he  speaks  the  word  —  even  now,  he  continues  to  find  the  concept  as  laughable  as  ever.   ❝  but  the  masses  are  like  frightened  little  mice  —  and  what  better  way  to  send  them  scurrying  in  OUR  DIRECTION  than  spinning  fending  off  an  attack  from  the  heavens  above  into  a  selling  point?  why,  they'll  be  eating  out  of  the  palm  of  your  hand  if  it  means  saving  their  miserable  skins!  ❞
