[She is on a rooftop, one hand - almost protectively - on her abdomen. She looks content enough, her gaze fixed on the horizon. What she looks for is only known to her.]

What do you think of one person - one soul - living multiple lives? There are religions that embrace it, but to others it is considered...wrong; maybe even evil.

[Wicked punishments for wicked angels. She sits near the edge of the roof, dangling her legs as if she is not several stories up.]

I wished to be a man. I thought my life would be easier. But I was being naive.

I am no longer alone. [She does not explain, but there is a deep sense of relief behind her words.] That might not be a bad turn of events. I can help you stay safe here.

[That is... not an offer that Rey is used to hearing. Most of the time it's her defending the physical well-being of others. Her safety comes last. Though she has been forced to adjust her priorities from time to time.]

Ah, thanks. You don't need to worry about that, though. Am pretty used to looking after myself. [That's been her whole damn life, after all.]

[heavenfell]

[Everyone needs a break from their duties. Alexiel knows the feeling of being held down and forced to go through the motions of mortal life. Most angels can't appreciate how hard it is to be human.]

It's nice to rely on someone else once in awhile. I promise I won't let you down.

[circumitus]

Guess so. [A sharp, nervous laugh.] You make it sound like you're already committed to the idea.

[Dealing with others is still new territory for her. Best to tread lightly -- it's almost worse than any minefield she's been on.]

[voice]

[heavenfell]

I have. [Deal with an angel coming down from the sky and striking down your enemies. It'll be fun.]
