Who: Mephistopheles and Kokabiel
What: Understanding.
Where: Uzza's temple on Toshima Island
When: Weekend
Warnings: Swearing.

Mephisto teleported himself to the bottom step of Uzza's temple, and took a deep, unnecessary breath, sighing it out to calm his mind. He knew Uzza was not there for the day, but there was a fallen angel at the top of the climb. He started walking slowly up the steps, feeling the Eastern spells tug at him, touch him like bony, weak fingers as he could feel himself come to a sense of peace. He folded his blackened, ashy wings against his back, and bowed at the top of the stairs, before he walked into the temple. He took off his shoes and went to the front room -- the prayer room, and there he crouched.

He spoke Kokabiel's name as he knelt down, gentle as a whisper, but no less a summoning that it was for the quiet way it was spoken. He wanted to speak to her alone, wanted to clear the air. He had a feeling that his wrath, his lesson, the bitter words spoken to her that fateful night of finding her and finding Ariel wounded, had all left a bitter impression in her mind and heart. He wanted resolution.

She was still angel enough to feel the tug of summoning on her, though the summoner was new; it wasn't Azrael or Uzza. She closed her eyes and teleported toward the source of the request.

Opening her eyes, she saw the prayer room in Toshima, but there was another occupant within it. Raziel. But not Raziel. Her muscles tensed, and she knew if there was an aura reader around, hers might just have turned black in fear. She hated herself for being frightened, but there it was.

She wet her lips, and spoke. "I'm sorry, I don't know what to call you at this point."

	She wasn't about to let her guard down right away, but she did relax somewhat. She sat in front of him, looking up at the former devil - who, she noticed, was blind again. "I'd like to think my lesson was learned," Kabe said cautiously. (Reply to this)

	Kokabiel watched him as he spoke, both listening and eyeing him. He looked tired, and almost somehow ... regretful. His eyes were almost maddened, almost aching and in pain. She listened to what he had to say, though, and her brow furrowed. When he was done speaking, she had to ask. "Maybe I don't have the right to ask ... but why is he so important?" (Reply to this)

	"I sincerely hope you find redemption, Kabie," Mephisto murmured, strangely motionless. He still felt drained, and it wasn't getting any better with the passing days, "some solace for yourself. I hope that I helped with that. However, I don't have much faith in the prospect of redemption. As for fearing me, there's nothing to fear." (Reply to this)

	"You don't think I can be redeemed, or you don't think anyone can?" Kokabiel folded her arms. "If there's nothing to be afraid of, I can just come out and say you look like shit. Is there anything I can do?" She owed him, even if he didn't think so. Kabe liked to pay her debts. (Reply to this)
