Where Angels Dare to Trod

Islington is walking along the ship.  It is a steady pace.  But slow.  If people didn't know better, It would like like It was floating or gliding.  If you run, It will walk.  If you stop, It will continue Its pace.  Never changing, never pausing.  As if by walking, it can change something about this place.

It's garments seem to be made of light itself.  As It goes along, It is humming an ancient tune: The Lyke Wake Dirge (As sung by Benedict Cumberbatch)

And that's the interesting thing about this particular Angel: It seeks neither to offer help nor the counsel of others. It is simply walking.  Perhaps It is measuring the ship, perhaps It is weighing the integrity of the people gathered.  Whatever the reason, It continues on Its journey.  Simply walking....

Riiight. If this Elder thinks he can just get zapped here and steal his charges, well, he's got another thing coming. But first, he had to figure out if this guy was an Elder. He couldn't vanquish what he didn't understand.

"I think you're the one with the issue here. No poaching charges. Have you been Up There for so long that you've forgotten how to talk to people? I know, it happens. But that Stepford Wives look you've got going kind of give you away."

"Wow. That's....a really, really long time. What have you been doing anyway?"An Elder that hadn't been Up there for thousands of years? Maybe this guy really was crazy.

Chris narrowed his eyes, looking at Islington. Maybe it was just that they were from different universes, but that was strange. "Thats odd. My dad's a kind of Guardian Angel, and when we're performing our duty's we check in pretty regularly. The Elders get uppity if they don't know what's going on. You don't check in?"

"Um. Because it's polite?" Chris offered. "Communicating the Whitelighter/Angel way is one thing, but there is something to be said for direct face to face communication. "

Chris gave him a look. "I don't know about you, but I can still keep watch over my charges when I'm Up There. I can hear them calling me, as long as I'm not in the Underworld.....Can you not?"

Why yes, this was an Angel pissing contest.

"Uh....no I'm pretty sure it's about practicality." Seriously, what was up with this guy? He couldn't keep an eye on his charges without being there? Interesting....
