Acts of men are better than acts of God.
Miracles aren't something that happen. They're something people make happen.

Damn.

Thanks for letting me catch my breath, Barge. I've been knee-deep in one disaster and now I've already got my Inmate assignment. At least this job keeps me on my toes.

[Private to Scotty]

If you find out what caused the attack, will you let me know? I still want to catch the guy before someone else does and we get a riot on our hands.

[Private to Loki]

Looks like I'm your Warden. Misato Katsuragi. We can meet, as soon as you're ready.

[Private]

I don't get it. Angels where I come from weren't Biblical or holy at all. I thought I finally understood them. It took me a whole year of fighting them, but I understood. So why change the game now?

I think God's laughing at me.

[Misato held up her hands defensively.] Just checking. Anyway. [She coughed, because this wasn't off to the most awkward start ever.] Okay, so you used to be the Angel of Death, huh?

[....How many people have actually said that in all seriousness to their inmates?]

"Yeah." [Loki paused, then added,] "I was damn good at it too." [He was still defensive about Gabriel's words, although at the time he'd tried to take them in stride. Asshole taking credit for his hard work, trying to say his universe was wrong...]

[Yeah, I'm pretty sure they frown on that here, Misato thought, still flipping through the file.] So I'm sure by now you've figured out the terms we have here. I, as your Warden, will help you achieve redemption and you get a second chance. Okay?

"Sure." [Loki shrugged noncommittally, what was left of his wings moving with his shoulder blades. It made sense, after all. All he wanted to do was go home. If achieving redemption here was the way God wanted him to do it, then fine. At least it wasn't hell. Or Wisconsin.]

"So what else is up with this place, anyway? I'm sure there are a lot of people far less well-adjusted than I am."

[Misato shrugged.] I'm not sure. I'm just as new to this as you are. I guess they pick people on the basis of whether or not they can be redeemed, so if you wind up here, there's actually hope for you.

"Yeah, sure. Why not?" [Loki shrugged again. His warden was a newbie...he filed that bit of information away. It was his business to know people, after all. Whether or not they were sinners factored heavily into it, but...]
