The angel looked sympathetic when he mentioned his name being 'boy'. Drake could probably tell he was feigning compassion though. He was more annoyed than anything. "Fine, what do you go by? What do you consider to be your name?" He asks. Why was is so damn difficult to get a name from this mortal anyway? Didn't mortals throw their names around for everything?<br/><br/>He is even more annoyed that Drake does not seem to have any answers as to why Gabriel had done something so out of character. The arch angel of water was very selective about whom he chose to associate with. Why this sinner? Why risk tainting the place of his birth for this creature? "Surely you must have some idea. The two of you were speaking before he pushed you in. What did he say?" The man presses. So while they had seen what was going on, they clearly had not been in hearing range.<br/><br/>~°~°~<br/><br/>Michael looked a bit confused as to who had taken Drake for a moment as well. "The council? Why would they summon Drake? How do they even know about him?" The angel asks.<br/><br/>"I took him to heaven yesterday and purified him. I wanted to wait a bit but he was in a lot of pain. He needed it. He wasn't ready though. It doesn't matter. They took him from me!" Gabriel hisses.<br/><br/>Reake snaps his fingers and the bandages vanish, allowing him a good look at the wounds. Contrary to what Kane might have thought the angel k ew what they were at once. "These are self inflicted. Brother... darling... why would you do this? Mortification? That is a horrid practice. What do you have to feel guilt over?" He asks in a concerned tone.<br/><br/>Gabe is incensed all over again when he hears Reake and sees Abbaddon's back. "Oh yeah, and they punished Ab for doing his fucking job! He killed the traitors that set you up Michael and they summoned him up to heaven to ream him. Practically threatened Kane and the treaty. So Ab took the lickings to protect Kane."<br/><br/>Michael's hair stands a bit on end as he hears what Gabe says and sees the horrid wounds on his second in command.
