14 [Video]

[The feed crackles on in the Darkness, the usual growls and other eerie noises of night at Siren's Port conspicuously absent in the area. It takes a moment for Castiel's image to become clear on the screen, almost melding out of the dark, expression smoothly neutral except for the faint hint of a smirk that looks completely out of place on his usually serious face.

His eyes are dark in the dim lighting, endless and like staring into an abyss, and even across the electronic feed the sense of wrongness is readily apparent.]

So I find myself here once more.

[His voice is soft, calm, almost uncaring, as if showing up in the Port again is a curiosity and nothing more. Then he smiles.]

It seems a good place to begin.

An opportunity for what?

[ofthursday]

To make things right.

[uberboned]

I wasn't aware they were wrong.

Look around you, Gabriel. And you know what our world is like.

[uberboned]

Maybe I'm just used to it. And yeah, I know. Lie down with dogs and you get fleas, but, hey, at least we're all flea-ridden together.

[Or at least we were. This makes his stomach churn, seeing Castiel like this. And like he can say he's much better- when he first came to earth, wasn't his objective make them worthy. Didn't he become a vulgar version of a god to preach his own word?

It wasn't like this. Nothing about that is even Castiel to begin with. Just something wearing his vessel's skin.]

Only if you choose to stay amongst the worst of humanity. There is good in it, too, and that should be preserved.

[It's just the rest of it he wants to wipe out. Is that so wrong~?]

[uberboned]

I choose to stay among the best of humanity. I do a lot of casual smiting of the worst.

[...Which makes him sound like him. Dammit.]

[ofthursday]

So you do.

[He sees that similarity too, and gives a bit more of a smile.]
