018 [Written, because he's in the infirmary still and he has some decorum... Y'know somewhere]

[uberboned]

Okay!

On a list of things I never want to do again, that is way, way, way up there. On the plus side, I can actually move without feeling like I'm gonna black out any second over here, so, in case you were  worried, the archangel will pull through. Thank you all for your concern.

On that note, if you guys find the son of a bitch that caused this? I've got five things I'd like to say to him and then five more things to say to him in response to whatever he says after that. And then I'm probably gonna put him through a wall. Okay? Okay. Just so we're all clear on that.

[[OOC: So Gabe's still in the infirmary, despite having almost recovered from his Death Toll, because he won't leave until Max is better. You can assume he's been sitting in a chair beside her cot this entire time, refusing to move and probably either giving people wary looks or sleeping. People still stuck in the infirmary/infirmary staff/whatever can feel free to spam off this post if they'd like. I dun care. XD]]

lakjdskla XD GDI TONY, I LOVE YOU SO.

No, because that would be letting them win. And we don't like it when the Bible-thumping manufacturers of lie-filled kitsch win.

AND HE LOVES YOU... because he fears for his eternal soul. Also, robot gophers. ph34r.

No, I guess you wouldn't. I can't imagine what it'll be like when they start manufacturing toys of me with ten arms and x-ray vision. I guess I'd be pissed too.

OH TONY. There's no helping your soul. AND YAY ROBOT GOPHERS.

You realize that more people would be for Christianity if the angel stuff on the market came with flaming swords and laser eyes. It would still be propaganda, but much, much better on the ego.

So I'm Gabriel. Yes, that one. Minus the horn and the Cate Blanchett hair. Hi. Nice to discuss marketing strategy with you.

BEING IRON MAN IS HIS REDEMPTION. Sort of. It also helps pick up chicks. :|

If that's the case, you need my PR team. Stark Industries. Look it up -- I'm sure they'll be happy to help the angel Gabriel with his divine image. I doubt they'll have a choice. Jesus Christ, this is weird.

I'm Tony. Tony Stark. It's a pleasure and an honor.

I don't talk to Daddy anymore, so if you're trying to charm your way past the Pearly Gates, you found the wrong archangel, but, hey, who am I to question the virtue of Iron Man.

[the-ironman.livejournal.com]

Nah. I'm pretty sure my place in hell is safe, secure, and exponentially reserved. It's probably a cubicle they assembled for me upon birth. I have no qualms with that.

Do they really circulate my press releases all the way out here?

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Well, if you're really nice, maybe they won't break out the thumbscrews. On the plus side, Hell's top torturer is here questing for redemption, so lucky you.

...Yes. That's exactly what they do. We gotta stick with the times.

[the-ironman.livejournal.com]

Hell's top torturer? I see that I'm in good company here on the Barge! Who is he?

Well. I guess all of my plans for secret vigilantism went out the door.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Name's Alastair. You will know him by the fact that he'll probably call you Pookie and say you have a pretty mouth. Great guy. Real fun at parties.

Oh did you here? They're disbanding vigilantes. Apparently, it's "not about us." And blah, blah, something about not killing people even when they deserve it, blah blah, I have unquestionable morality, blah.

[the-ironman.livejournal.com]

How can you disband vigilantes? Their lack of ... banding ... is what makes them vigilantes.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

It's just Watchmen all over again.

[the-ironman.livejournal.com]

I get to be the blond guy. He had style.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

And also murdered everyone in New York City in a well-intentioned gambit for world peace.

[the-ironman.livejournal.com]

We all have our weaknesses. Genocide. World peace. Giant squids. All of his just happened to coincide.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

....Okay, I officially approve of you in all respects. Congratulations.

[the-ironman.livejournal.com]

So about that free pass into Heaven...

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

That I can't help you with.
