paradisa | 2.2 ✞ dictated;

[maybe you remember this guy's voice, eh? cheerful and polite? he was a little... uh, confused over the Christmas vacation -- and while he sounds much the same, he's more sure of himself this time around! (is this a good thing? ...for you?)]

Good afternoon, Paradisa...! It's been a while, hasn't it? Well, I guess... not as long as it had been before, huh?

Um-- it's Father Abel, and I have to offer my sincerest, deepest, and most humblest of apologies for the long radio silence! Things have been a little... strange, since coming back from Paris. I thought it was probably a good idea to get my head in order before saying hello again, but-- well.

~HELLO~! My fairest Paradisians, you have no idea how nice it is to be back and... well, myself again! [that part is half-right, at least, he swears...!! he'll just gloss over the whole, had-a-fake-life thing like a boss.] I never thought I'd say this with such enthusiasm, but... here I am, and it's quite true! I'm very sorry for leaving without much notice, but I suppose the castle doesn't really give warning about these kinds of things, does it? I'm just grateful I was able to come back... exactly how I left. Which is to say, veritably able to recall... everything, from before August of last year. I'm not sure how it... happened, or why, but...

I'm beginning to think ignorance is bliss, at times like these. [no really.]

[...]

And, might I add, while I'm at it... a little note for those of you who saw fit to convince me that the journal was some sort of possessed demonic VOLUME OF DEATH while I was, ah. Aforementioned 'blissfully ignorant?'

[here, my dears, is quite the dramatic pause... before his voice goes lower and takes on a more MENACING TONE.]

I may forgive, but I will not forget. What goes around, COMES around, my friends, and you too shall know what it is to live in incorrigible horror one day. It may not be by my hand... but karma? Has an even longer memory than an elephant, so just watch yourself. Next thing you know, you'll be in a tutu, clucking like a chicken atop the roof and singing the blues to the wind on some horrible loss, alright?! These things ALWAYS happen.

[HUFF. --oh right, moving right along:]

--Ah, and... thank you! To everyone else with moral fiber and a conscience who so kindly attempted to explain that I was not, in fact, stark raving mad and actually... a part of the castle's ministrations. Really... I'm very grateful... It's been a long while since I've been on that end of things, and it's reminded me of how scary it can sometimes be. We should be a little gentler on our newest faces, shouldn't we? Maybe we forget how crazy the prospect of all of this could seem.

--Oh, but -- before I ramble forever... Lilith, Caterina and I will be up-keeping the church again -- it's in the Satis Tower, for those of you who might not be aware -- and, I'm living on the sixth floor with Lilith, now! So you can stop by and say hello if you want, okay? If you forgot, or, if this is the first time you've heard my doubtlessly charming and suave voice over the journals... those doors are always open to anyone at all, so don't hesitate to come any time you'd like. I mean it!

And...

[a little pause, and then something of a contented exhale. his voice is a little softer.]

...It's good to be home.

[and for those of you who feel like catching up -- or just feel like investigating the church, he'll be hanging out in there today cleaning things up and tidying a bit, humming pleasantly. feel free to harass the lanky priest sweepin' a sweep.]

[ooc: open... for ALL THE THINGS over the journal or in the church. oh my god so much tl;dr i am so sorry slkdjgsdf... and a note!!: my apologies to anyone that was still backtagging with me on lj; it's died a horrible death and won't function on my laptop sob. if there's anything you need to sort out, don't hesitate to drop me a line!!]

...I like the way you're thinking, Mr. Adachi.

Well, I am full of good ideas. [no adachi. no.]

It seems you're quite the addition to the branch, aren't you? I'm rather impressed!

Alright, alright... pink and ribbons. What else? ...I'm writing this down.

[Abel you're managing to make Adachi forget for a moment that he's a horrible bad man who doesn't deserve to be anywhere near Nanako even though he wants to, it's hard to tell if this is a good thing or not]

The first character in her name!

[he writes now what he's talking about:]

菜

It's a little more creative than just an N.

[oh my god you have the best ideas...]

--Perfect! ...Hey, hey... keep going! You're on a roll!

Umm...

[fff why is he doing this... oh well wishing up some markers]

...This is the single most perfect thing I have seen in my life.

H-Huh? I-It only took a few minutes...

A few minutes well spent~! We really have something going here!

Y-You really think so...?

[muttering:] Why do I keep expecting someone to hit me then...?

H-hit you...?! [HE IS A PRIEST!!! ...okay yeah but still he wouldn't hit you Adachi oh my goodness...]

Where did that come from--?!

Ack! Oh geez, did I say that loud?

S-Sorry... I-I didn't mean you would or anything... it's just a feeling I just can't shake sometimes... l-like if I were back home doing this right now someone would be smacking my head and telling me to "Get back to work and stop goofing off!" or "Get me my coffee already!"

It's pretty weird!

Edited 2012-02-15 06:16 (UTC)

...You know... I have the uncanny idea I know exactly what you're talking about.

Really?! You do?

I really and truly do--!! Some of my colleagues -- and my boss -- are super scary and Lord knows when you'll say the wrong thing to set them off... It's like walking on eggshells balanced on a bed of nails or something of the like and...

I-it's terrible. Isn't it?

Yeah! That's exactly what it's like! And you can't even do anything the least bit fun or silly like put stickers on your organizer without them getting mad at you!

[sobbing inside... KINDRED ABUSED SPIRITS...]

What did we do to deserve this cruel treatment, Mr. Adachi? [except you're both terrible duh...]

I don't know Mr. Abel...

Oh-

You can just call me Adachi by the way. Mr. makes me feel a little old...

--right! Right. Adachi, then! I don't want to age you without meaning to, so... [HAHA awkward chuckle. oops.]

Hey, don't worry about it! It's cool.

Good! I'm glad... it seems much more like friends this way, doesn't it?

[OH GOD THAT F WORD AGAIN WHY ALWAYS THAT WORD]

Erm... y-yeah. [wow just listen to that awkward]

W-Well, I bet you have a lot to do and a lot of other people to talk to so, I should just...

[that's how he rolls, man. how he rolls.]

Ah-- we can talk anytime, alright? But I won't keep you any longer, Adachi, long as you promise to take care and see Lilith, okay?
