Raguel hadn't been on earth for too long. He'd been busy flitting about the Heavenlies for longer than he could count, and so it had taken him a little while to adjust to the customs of every day life. Oh, he had been keeping an eye on things while he was up there, but it wasn't too uncommon of a thing to spot a genuine Christian mortal on the surface, glance away, then glance back to find their great-great-great-grandchild was laying on their deathbed.
He tried not to glance away too often.
Still, it had only been a matter of time until his presence was required on Earth once again. Ah, such a lovely land! God's fingerprints were pressed into every living being, every immobile rock and gentle, swaying tree. It was because of his attentive nature that Raguel hadn't been too surprised by automobiles, or airplanes, or even cellphones. People in general, however, were an entirely different matter. There was so little hope, and so much discord, it was disheartening at times. Still, he pressed on, pursuing a happier existence for everyone by helping out one person at a time.
Meeting with this Ares character wasn't a matter of courtesy, and it most certainly wasn't out of obligation or pity. Raguel, in fact, felt privelaged to be introduced to a new person. (He was just that way; more giving than what most would consider reasonable, and glaringly easy to take advantage of.) He just loved people. It was as simple as that, and it would remain that way for the rest of his existence.
As promised, he was sitting near the front of the cafe wearing a white shirt with wings on the back. (The crosses had attracted him to it. He hadn't realized the brand was called "Sinful - Affliction" until after he had already bought it.) He hadn't ordered yet - he would wait for Ares.
