[Diarmuid nods sadly.]

That is it exactly. He died so that no more of our brothers would. He is not gone forever, but he will be gone for a long time. Angels who die in battle like that are reborn here on Earth and live a human life. Only once they die after their human life, do they return to their friends and family Above.

We were all sad for his loss. He was a great leader and skilled fighter. Above will not be nearly so great a place until he returns.

[beforetights]

[He crawls over and gives Diarmuid a hug.]

Do you think we can find him here? Maybe we can look for him and your family.

[oathshackledbird]

Perhaps we could look for him, but he would not look as he did when I last saw him and he would not remember being an angel. I'm not sure what good finding him would do.

[Diarmuid pauses to think for a moment before shaking his head.]

I am not sure what age he might even be. Time moves differently here than it does Above.

[beforetights]

[He nods.]

Well, if we do find him, you guys can talk to each other about heaven. That'll be fun for you, right?

[oathshackledbird]

[The angel's expression saddens.]

It doesn't work that way, Little One. I can't talk to him about something he doesn't remember. And I don't think I can make him remember. Besides, that wouldn't be fair to him. Human life...it is suppose to be a rest and a chance to learn without anything from Above interfering.

[beforetights]

[Setanta's expression falls as well.]

I understand. But...if we do run into him someday and he's a kid like me...will you be his friend too?

[oathshackledbird]

I most certainly will.

[Diarmuid's sad smile brightens.]

You would get along well with him if his personality stays pretty close to how it was Above.

[Well, they would get along or they would drive each other crazy because they were too much alike.]

[beforetights]

Cool! That sounds so awesome!

[Immediately after speaking, he claps a hand over his mouth. He's afraid that he might have been too loud.]

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid looks up toward the ceiling, realizing the boy's worry and trying to comfort him.]

I expect if our voices were going to wake her, they would have already. You said she would probably be up soon anyway, didn't you?

[beforetights]

[He nods.]

Yeah, I guess she'll come down soon. She spends a long time cleaning up in front of the mirror because she's a girl.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid chuckles and runs a hand through his hair.]

They do that, don't they? Girls have quite a few odd habits.

[beforetights]

Do angel girls do the same thing?

[oathshackledbird]

No, no really, but there are a few...

[Diarmuid pauses, tilting his head as if he hears something.]

I think I hear her stirring now. Do you want to run up and ask her if she wants to come with us? If not, tell her about the food and then we can head to the park.

[beforetights]

I'll go tell her. Wait here, Mr. Der-mood.

[He rushes up the stairs. After a few minutes, he'll be coming back down.]

[oathshackledbird]

[Once the boy has left the room, Diarmuid stands up and shuts off the TV. He then moves to the kitchen to reset the table so Misaya can eat when she is ready. He is just finishing when Setanta returns.]

What did she say?

[beforetights]

That the boys are stupid and stinky and she just wants to stay home today, so I need to go out alone with you.

[A pause.]

And she said something really mean about you.

[She had called Diarmuid stupid. And Setanta knew that the angel wasn't stupid.]

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid smiles slightly at her reaction since it is what he had been expecting, though the smile vanishes when Setanta continues.]

Do you want to tell me what she said this time? Will it make you feel better?

[beforetights]

[He quickly shakes his head.]

No, I won't. Because it's mean.

[oathshackledbird]

All right, I won't make you especially if saying it will make you feel bad.

[Diarmuid smiles at the boy to try and reassure him.]

It's not your fault she doesn't like me. Perhaps someday that will change. We just need to be patient.

[beforetights]

I wish she would. You're always so nice.

[He crosses his arms and quietly stews for a little while. Ever since Diarmuid had started living with them, Misaya was always calling the angel stupid at every opportunity.]

And she makes you sad when she says mean things, doesn't she?

[oathshackledbird]

Yes, she does...

[In fact, it actually hurts especially when she says things to his face. Just as Setanta's pure emotions help to heal him on occasion, her words do the opposite since they are so often angry and hurtful.]

...but you can't force someone to like you. All you can do is continue to be kind to them and hope someday they change their mind.

[beforetights]

But that takes a really long time. I don't wanna see you sad for a long time.

[oathshackledbird]

[Diarmuid bends down and ruffles Setanta's hair gently.]

That is very kind of you. Don't worry. Every bit of your kindness makes up for two bits of her being mean. Niceness is stronger than meanness any day!

[beforetights]

[He quickly cheers up.]

Mm, well, I guess it is.

[He turns back to the cartoons.]

Do you wanna go out now? Or do you wanna watch more cartoons?

[oathshackledbird]

I want to do whatever you do.

[Diarmuid nods toward the TV.]

Cartoons will be on again another day, but today is great for going outside. And wasn't someone all excited about going outside? Have you changed your mind?
