Voice Testing/Pre-TTE

[hatedthemovie]

Don't you already have another angel that you play with? Why on earth do you need another one?

Oh, it's for that game, isn't it? That... experiment one. Assuming that this all works. Honestly, I hope it doesn't. Last thing I want is to be sent some place where I can't do what I want.

Of course, you don't care what I want, do you? No, of course not.

[ooc: Seriously, voice testing Balthazar for a game. I have a HMD thread in my profile. Anything helps.

[Castiel hates his mun for this, but that's honestly nothing new. Otherwise, he might not say a single word here. There's a hesitance in his voice that could almost be called fear, by those who know him well.

Once upon a time, that was Balthazar. Now? Well. Not now.]

... Balthazar.

[grace_optional]

They never care what we want. We'd be glad to have you, though.

...well. I'd be glad. Gabriel would probably be glad. And...somebody else needs a 'you' to show up.

[canstillbite]

[She speaks in a low growling voice, firm and stern, if a little irritable.]

A non-human in human form. How pitiful.

There are not always times when you can do what you want. Especially not with a human in charge.

[hatedthemovie]

[Oh, Balthazar is right there with you on hating this mun. Of course, he's right there with the 'not liking Castiel' part either.]

Castiel. I was hoping to avoid you.

[to_rebel]

[That's okay. Castiel doesn't much like Castiel most times either. He could offer a kitten as a peace offering?]

Of course. I apologize.

[hatedthemovie]

Obviously.

Well, at least someone will be pleased to see me. Are you implying that I'm needed there? I'd rather not get involved in this sort of situation, thank you.

[hatedthemovie]

It's called a vessel, darling.

Oh, so I have learned. These muns are rather inconsiderate that way.

[canstillbite]

It is still pitiful, to see one who is above them to be confined in such a... fragile form.

[Moro scoffs. How irritating...]

You treat it as if it were a mere inconvenience.

[grace_optional]

Hey, for people in our, ah...conundrum, it beats the alternative. ...most of the time.

[hatedthemovie]

[Kittens... it's a nice thought. He might consider.]

I don't believe an apology is enough this time, Cassy.

[to_rebel]

[There's a beat of silence, then Castiel nods.]

I... [He can almost what Lucifer might say about this one. Even walled away and silent, he can imagine what might be said.] Yes. I know.

[Seriously. Kittens are all he has. That and a touch of crazy.]

[hatedthemovie]

Perhaps, but my true form is far too bright for human eyes.

It's more than just an inconvenience, but my plan is less upfront. I don't want her to know what I'm up to.

[canstillbite]

Then burn them out.

Heh. Heh heh.

I see... you think you can use her.

[hatedthemovie]

Ah, yes. There is always that point. I suppose I should be thanking her for that, but I'll hold the thanks.

[spartanclass]

As far as I know, there isn't a restriction on what you can and can't do there.

[grace_optional]

Anyway. It'd be good to see you again. And there's plenty of Scotch and no Apocalypses or civil wars in progress. Currently. It does get pretty rough sometimes, but there's worse places she could put you.

[hatedthemovie]

[Balthazar stares for a moment, and then sighs.]

Honestly, you look terrible when you sulk.

[He might take a kitten, and he'll name it Cassy.]

[hatedthemovie]

I can think of more pleasurable ways to kill, if I needed to.

Oh, absolutely.

[hatedthemovie]

Oh, believe me, it isn't the game restrictions I'm worried about.

[to_rebel]

[... That name.]

I am not-- [--going to raise my voice to the brother I stabbed in the back. Bad plan.] --not sulking.

[hatedthemovie]

Yes, likewise. Oh, now that does sound delightful. The scotch, I mean. The threat of war at any time does seem rather... alarming. Though, I suppose that will come with any game. I've heard from other little birdies that there are far worse games. I believe this mun's Gabriel has gotten the worst of it.

[hatedthemovie]

[Well if he's going to get a cat, he might as well give it a cute name.]

You always were a terrible liar.

[to_rebel]

[Name the kitten Cassy and it'll try to scratch his eyes out.]

Perhaps that's not a bad thing.

[hatedthemovie]

[Castiel and Cassy are always so violent.]

Perhaps not. It does suit you.

[to_rebel]

[Well, not so much anymore. He tried to fight a zombie horde and ended up falling apart. Fun times.]

[There's a moment of silence as Castiel struggles for words. Not just the right words. Any words. They are a little halting, hesitant.] I have many things to make amends for, Balthazar. [What I did to you tops the list.]
