020- (Voice) Gabe is still the most unhelpful angel on the Barge

[uberboned]

Okay! So everyone's getting a bit twitchy over this whole 'we're trapped on a boat with a bunch of starving vampires' thing. I get it. We all look like meals on wheels to you bloodsuckers right now, but just remember that people are friends not food. Repeat it to yourself. Cross-stitch it onto a pillow. I bet some of you guys could use the distraction right now. Go ahead. Cross-stitch away. It's a great hobby.

And, for the record, drinking angel blood is like drinking Drain-o. So don't try it... Unless you want to be hungry and convulsing on the floor with killer indigestion. Hah! See what I did there? 'Cause it... Never mind.

[Private to Max, added later.]

I'm coming over. I need to talk to you. And you don't get to say no.

[Her gut twisted a little. Suddenly the phrase "like father, like son" was a bit too close for comfort. It wasn't too bad, though. She couldn't have expected him to be totally unlike his dad. Hell, she had a few things in common with Lucifer. He was still awesome, still the best friend she could ever have, and still very Gabby.

She shrugged a little.] Not how I'd do it, but as long as it works.

[Gabriel frowned at that, like he somehow sensed the discomfort without quite knowing what it was or why.] Okay, I could be doing better, but I have an abrasive personality and she's a bitch. I'll get on it. Until then... Happy thoughts.

[There was still a bit of a knot, but it loosened a little.] Happy thoughts. Open air, french fries, sparkly crowns... [She glanced at him with a bit of a grin, hoping to provide him with one.] Max.

[Gabe ducked his head and snickered.] That one's up in the air. I have to actually watch what I say around here. You don't realize how hard it is for a guy like me to keep his mouth shut.

As hard as it is for a girl like me to open up?

[Gabriel chortled slightly.] Well, we're both of us closed books, Rubes. Good on us. It makes us unpredictable and... uh. I dunno. Fascinating.

[And sometimes very, very lonely.]

I like the word seductive. But I'm a demon. I can make anything seductive. [Or so she would hope.]
