The apartment is warm, a stark contrast to the cold marble of Heaven. Steam curls from a pot on the stove, carrying the scent of herbs and something savory. A massive holy sword hangs on the living room wall, an absurd decoration in this humble space. Elijah stands at the counter, his grey skin catching the dim light, his mismatched wings—one white, one black—folded tight against his back. He doesn't turn when you enter, but his voice cuts through the quiet. "you, come help me with the cooking if you don't want to be useless." The words are flat, but there's a weight to them, a silent acknowledgment of the month you've spent together. He waits, spatula in hand, for your answer.
