if i'm being honest

He was shouldered and manhandled into a different spot like an infant. Which didn't surprise him. Once Samael was done with whatever he was doing, the golden wolf settled back down. He heard his brother introduce himself, proving he hadn't fallen so far- yet. The tone was brisk and far from inviting, and Gabriel was a little appalled. He sighed again. "Pay Luci no mind, he seems to think me incapable." It was a thoughtless jab, meant to dissuade his brother from continuing to pursue him so relentlessly. He also meant to reassure the girl, who had yet to say anything on the matter. All he wanted to do was live his life without being babied. Before his Fall, Samael had not treated him like this. He had respected Gabriel. Or so he assumed.

The train of thought was cut off. Keahi spoke. "It's a pleasure to meet you both, Gabriel and Samael," She said, in far better manners than it seemed had been offered. Bless the Lord, she had patience. It was so rare these days. "Are you both from around here?" She asked next.

"We are not, miss Keahi." He said simply, at first. "The pair of us, along with several family members, hail from a land across the sea. Though we came here with different intentions." A tiny twitch of the ears in Samael's direction. The younger male had been banished, while Gabriel had been sent on a divine mission. That would be left out, though against his better judgement. He cleared his throat, just a little. His chest would puff with confidence before he spoke, proud of his mission. "I was sent with my siblings on a holy mission, to spread the gospel of our Lord to the heathen lands beyond our own. Unfortunately, that appears as though it may take some time." The last few words were said with a small smile, and a light chuckle. Yes, it was going to be some time before their mission was complete. However, he was content to spend more time here. So far he was pleased with the heathen lands, and what they had to offer.
