[Michael looks awfully frustrated here. He's dragging a hand through his hair and ruffling it rather awfully.]

I know the community thinks this is funny, but I really don't know what I'm supposed to do here. I see all these prayers, but I'm not cut out to be a god... or an angel, or whatever I'm supposed to be. I don't know what to do with prayers. I can't possibly answer them all.

[Butterfly in Michael's body looks somewhere between sad and angry. Very upset, anyway.]

An archangel, to be specific. And, it's all right. We can't answer every prayer either.

[video]

[papillio_tempestatis]

But then what do I do about them?

[There's about one thing Butterfly's accepted as something she can't do anything at all about and that's the community itself. And she's not committed to that decision, either.]

If I'm an archangel, whatever that is, shouldn't I be able to do something?

[Video]

[archangelofderp]

I'm sorry. Even I don't have that answer.

[papillio_tempestatis]

Isn't this your job? What do you usually do?

[Video]

[archangelofderp]

Take souls up to Heaven, usually. But I think it's Gabriel's shift now.

[papillio_tempestatis]

I meant about the prayers.

[ That does sound a little awkward, having all of that and not knowing how to deal with it.. sure, Usagi doesn't really know how to deal with her situation either, it's so weird to be a guy, but she's still determined to help. ]

Um, can't you answer them one by one..?

Re: video;

[papillio_tempestatis]

There are too many for that. I just feel helpless...

[selene]

Then, um.. just let someone help! I'll help you if you want.. even if I don't know what I can do, really.

[papillio_tempestatis]

... Michael - the one whose body I'm in - says that mostly what they need us to do is listen. I... suppose that makes sense.

[Though she doesn't sound like she likes it.]

[selene]

So you just have to listen to it and not do anything about it in the end? That almost sounds.. well, a little sad.

[papillio_tempestatis]

According to him it's really all most of them need, is someone to listen. I suppose that makes sense; gods know it's mostly why we ask other people for advice.

[pintsizedpyro]

Can't you just ignore them?

[video]

[papillio_tempestatis]

I'm geting millions of prayers from all over the world and you're asking me to just ignore them?

[video]

[pintsizedpyro]

That's pretty much what I'm suggestin', yeah! There a problem with that?

Re: [video]

[papillio_tempestatis]

If you need to ask in the first place, I'm not sure you would ever actually understand what the problem is.

[video]

[pintsizedpyro]

What, you actually want to answer 'em or somethin'? Yer not gonna get anything in return for that, right, so why bother? Just ignore them and they'll be the problem of the guy you switched with again!

[video] makes this thread more confusing

[archangelofderp]

Excuse me. I can't help but notice that you've switched bodies with my brother.

Re: [video]

[papillio_tempestatis]

Some of us do things for reasons other than getting something in return, you know.

[trustmybase]

So, we both got into man bodies. Yay. [Sarcasm, much?]

So, what are you supposed to be, then?

[papillio_tempestatis]

According to him, an archangel. And what are you supposed to be?

[Butterfly tries to smile slightly. Bantering with Marti is better than dwelling on the prayer thing.]

[trustmybase]

A good-looking guy? It doesn't look like there's a lot more to it than that.

So, better or worse than an angel?

Gah, sorry this took so long

[papillio_tempestatis]

Hmm... all right.

Better, I... think? I don't know how angels work.

No worries! I'm super slow myself.

[trustmybase]

Well, you know that he's probably not doing anything in your body, so that's a plus. I just hope this guy isn't messing stuff up.

[papillio_tempestatis]

You could try to find him, I suppose.
