Post #1902251 in Angels and Graveyards, a roleplay on RPG

Dove sighed at Aquaea. "Can you just shut up already? We know we're dead, and if you think you're higher than any of us, in any way, I have to say you are one conceited human being." Dove said calmly, sitting on the floor and pulling out a mini-sketchbook, drawing the outline of the place and drawing Lulu walking off, before actually noticing she was leaving. His eyes rested on her, before he rolled them, returning to his drawing of the place. Some people never change. he thought, sighing. But, wouldn't it be hilarious if this 'world' had walls and she walked right into it. He suppressed a giggle when he thought of her walking flat out into a wall.

But Jack decided he was going to speak up about this. "Sweetheart, walking off somewhere in this dimension means you'll either end up in the afterlife, or lost for centuries. This is the Between, so I suggest you don't wander around too much. Even I don't really know much about this place. Unless, of course, you'd rather die than get another chance at life, sweetheart. But I'll tell you now, you probably won't get a high chance of becoming an Angel with that attitude. Right, when Amoretta and Zyanya wake up, I'll tell you why you're here."

Dove looked at Jack, before looking away, his 'sketch' (it looked like a full drawing) was completed and he moved on to observing his staff quietly. He looked at the part floating slightly above the weapon, a blue glow in the centre of a prism made of ice. How bizarre. He looked at Aquaea, who looked oddly proud of herself and her little speech, and he burst out laughing with that thought and the one of Lulu walking into a wall. He stopped himself halfway through, but his shoulders still shook as he looked down, his hair covering his face as he tried not to laugh. His small body still shook, even as he tried to draw but his hand kept trembling.

"Oh, Aquaea." He said breathily and slowly, drawing out her name patronisingly with a wide grin on his face. She seemed to think she was the most important person there. To be honest, he didn't care. He wanted to get home and eat those instant noodles with his roommate. They'd promised they'd eat together tonight, since they'd both get home earlier that night. Seems that wasn't going to happen. There was a silence, and Jack sighed.

"You guys never change." he said, a small smile on his face, and Dove just began laughing more. Jack seemed to be happy that Dove was enjoying this, drawing all kinds of things with his bright blue goggles now on his eyes. On his page, he already had a sketch of Joss smoking, Aquaea looking proud with stars flying around her, Jack peering out from behind the pillar, Knight with her sword at Jack's neck, Amoretta and Zyanya sleeping, and Lulu stomping off. They were all small and on the same page, but you could tell the difference between them. He also drew a cartoony sketch of Aquaea with everyone there kneeling around her in a worshipping pose. It was ridiculous how quick he'd sketched them, and his hand only paused when he looked to see if Amoretta and Zyanya were awake yet. He stashed the sketchbook back in his pocket, when Jack decided he might as well answer Aquaea's questions.

"Well, you because I spent years training you, and I'm not starting that all over again. Plus, at first, it was your choice. Nothing's in this for you, apart from another chance at life. If you decline, off to the afterlife! And you, like Lulu, won't be able to come back to Earth without becoming an angel. And I'm not dysfunctional, I just have a happier grasp on life than. . . some people." Jack stood up, stretching. "Dove, do you have candy~?" he asked, and Dove looked at him.

He brought a pack of turquoise sweets, ones he hadn't eaten in ages. They had this weird substance in the middle which tasted like banana ice-cream. It was cold too. Jack took one and grinned. "Merci~!" he laughed, and Dove raised his eyebrow, eating one himself. He missed the sweets his sister used to make. Oh well. He'd just have to savour these ones.
