Raphael | 003 | Video | Day 117

[ In then few seconds it takes him to set up to summon Michael, he quickly fires off a message, locked to all the angelsibs, save Michael. He's got it locked the hell away from Michael and Zachariah, for reasons that are very clear. ]

All of you, pipe up. And take note.

[ It almost rumbles over the device - rather than the brother he's tried to been, the last couple of months, it's very much the Second to the General of Heaven that's speaking. ]

We've managed to concoct a bit of peace here. I will do what I can to continue it. But all of you must do your parts as well.

[ And the rest is to the rest from their world, sans Michael, though his tone doesn't change. ]

I'll tolerate no shenanigans from anyone over Michael.

[ Except the universe isn't Godless. He knows that for a fact, because he's right here and he can't exactly leave, can he? No, he's here and this place is a second chance for all of them -- especially Michael.

And, while his policy of angelic non-interference hadn't worked 100% like he'd wanted, perhaps he could... tweak his policy, just a little. He still won't directly interfere, of course, but a little nudge in the right direction might not go amiss. ]

So, uh. I... won't be getting any more visions, will I?

[ Chuck isn't exactly sure how the vision process works, exactly. Do they come directly from God -- ha -- or does it just... happen when something big is about to happen? ]

[ It isn't - and Raphael knows that God is alive at least, but he still saw everything as an absence of God. Of hope, and Raphael just wasn't equipped to know how to handle it.

They all need nudging, but some need more than others - and Raphael did.]

You shouldn't, no.

[ He gives a thankful nod. If this is going to end up Apocalypse 2.0, at least he won't have to deal with the unfunctionable migraines too. ]

Okay, good. [ Beat. ] Well, no, I don't mean good, but...

[ He isn't afraid to give some nudges, should the opportunity present itself. But no sooner and no later than those moments. ]

You know we could still press the matter right?

[ Could but likely won't. Did Raphael actually learn something about consent somewhere? ]

No, no, that's... That's not necessary.

[ He didn't mean it like that. He knows he's a prophet, and that means it's his job to get visions and predict the future. But he didn't ask for that, and he's really a lot happier without the visions than with them. ]

Hopefully it won't be, no.

[ Cross Raphael though...and he'll be a bit heavy handed. ]

[ chuck doesn't have any intentions of crossing Raphael. At least, not on this matter. ]

No, I... peace is good, remember? I like peace.

Good. Then there won't be any problems.
