(Okay ill do it lol)

Gabriel stepped through the crowd of humans, a white suit on as usual and his wings hidden to the human eye except for Alex.
No, he couldn’t make them disappear, so he looked slightly funny trying to dodge the other life forms so they didnt touch his wings. If felt like a violation for one to touch his wings and he thought it stupid he couldn’t make them disappear.
So pressed to his back, he maneuvered his way through the crowd. The dim light shining down on them as rich people mingled within one another as they sipped on their wine and champagne. Red lipstick marks on their glasses and fake smiles to go around.
Gabriel, to say the least was disturbed. Never liking humans too much, and not seeing why God loved them oh so much. But with no complaint, he followed the orders given to him by the ones above.

(Oh shit…I thought my response had gone through…I'm really sorry)

Alex didn't want to leave his room in the week following the accident…let alone go to a formal get-together that his parents insisted he go to. He hadn't spoken a word of what had happened to him, and as he wandered around the ballroom, he wondered if it would've been able to enough to convince them that he could stay home.

He sipped at the drink he had snagged from a nearby waiter, well aware that he was still underage. It was the only thing keeping him from bolting out of the packed room though, and as a plus, it kept his thoughts from Gabriel and Albellona. It did not, however, keep him from frowning whenever someone got too close to him. Soon he found himself wandering along the edge of the crowds just to avoid the sharp heels and crisp suits crowded together.

It's not that he didn't look nice enough to blend in, he definitely got that part down. A full black suit, with a matching undershirt and tie was enough to make him blend in, it was just his overall feeling about crowds and new people that made him stick to the edges of the event. At least walking around out here meant he was more likely to speak to people who shared the same annoyance for small talk as he did.

Albellona smiled as she talked to the older (well, physically, at least. She was probably actually around his age) man in front of her, trying to act like the heels weren't killing her. She hated being sent to try and get deals at these sort of things. It was too stuffy. Everything from the setting to the clothes she had to wear made her feel claustrophobic and trapped. The men were too pervy and gave the literal demon the creeps. The music gave her a headache. And everyone-everyone was so damn fake. She shook her head slightly when he looked away. She had to get her job done. She didn't want another week in the pit. She smiled as she declined his offer to dance, "I have two left feet, honestly, I'll stab you through the toes with my heels!", making a quick escape to get some semblance of fresh air.

((Hey, I kinda thought of a backstory for her, if anyone is interested?))

(Oooh i love it!! Gabriel’s just….an angel from the beginning of time lol. As all angels are)

Gabriel spotted the demon across the room, though smelled her a mile away. He knew she would come here of course, but damn was it annoying.
Redirecting his route to the sidelines of the party, he was interrupted by a cougar.
“Did it hurt?” She asked in a low, scratchy voice.
Looking down to the human, or what wasnt plastic, he questioned her. “Did what hurt?”
“Oh silly, when you fell from heaven of course” her wrinkly, ring infested finger ran smoothly down his chest before he backed away.
“I didnt fall from heaven. I flew down here” he says confused. How’d she know he was an angel? And second, did he look like someone who would commit such an act? Something so horrible to be thrown out of heaven and fall to the earth with singed wings?
He was offended to say the least.
The lady only laughed, with was more of a constipated cackle if you would ask Gabriel. The smell of smoke burned his lungs as she got closer to him.
Though he pushed her aside with an aggravated sigh and finally was able to push his way through the crowd and meet with Alex.
“Fake id I’m guessing?” He sighed, standing in front of Alex “no way for the prophet of the Lord to be acting, but we’ll fix that in due time” he mumbled to himself.
“Are you enjoying this place? The humans here are….well extremely rude to say the least” he grumbled

Alex almost jumped when he heard Gabriel's voice, mid-sip of his drink. He coughed as he swallowed the alcohol, nervous to see the angel again. "Only way to get through these parties," He admitted before coughing again, finally clearing his throat, "I'm quite far from enjoying this event."

He glanced up at the taller male, frowning before glancing around and asking in a more hushed and pressing tone, "What are you doing here? I told you already, I'm not who you're looking for." Quickly, he downed the rest of his drink, sure that it was just the lack of alcohol in his blood. This couldn't be happening again, he couldn't be actually seeing the same male with the same damn wings. When he had gotten into his car, he figured that would be the last time he would see him, not again at a party. Though from a quick once over of the room, he guessed that Albellona wasn't around. At least that was nice. The woman didn't bother him, but he was sure that this room full of people couldn't handle a fight like what he saw from the cliff.

Gabriel let out a tired sigh “my superiors dont lie. Ive remembered your face, and quite frankly all your stats, so i can find you every time you leave. So try to leave and deny the fact that youre the prophet. But thats only going to make things worse and I’m going to find you again.” He put a firm hand on his shoulder
“my job is to keep you protected, but I’m not able to do so if you keep running away. I’m trying to keep you out of reach from the demons trying to hunt you down and torture you for information.” He says sternly.
The demon he was trying to protect this particular human from was in fact here in the building, and thats why he wanted to get this over with as quick as possible.
But he knew Albellona wouldnt have that.
Of course

"I don't know any information that is desirable…unless demons are looking for the beginnings of coding and technology engineering?" He replied in a frankly exasperated way, "I can guarantee you that I don't know anything of worth for you or them or your supposed superiors."
Alex met Gabriel's eyes as he talked, messing with the glass in his hand and looking for the best excuse to leave at the moment. There had to be some way to excuse himself from the situation. Preferably as fast as possible before he got sucked into whatever story was going to be spun for him and actually got hooked into what was happening. As long as he didn't get invested in helping Gabriel, or worrying about these demons that were supposedly coming for him, he would be fine.
