Private
A vessel is a human body that is capable of containing an angel. It's a relatively rare thing, and the more powerful the angel, the less likely a vessel is going to be found for them. So, I'm at the point where I'm not entirely certain if this is me as I've always known me to be or if Alfie is actually in here somewhere. I could feel him there in the dreams. I remember working very hard to ensure that he felt none of the pain that I did, but feeling only me here doesn't really assure me that he's not. All angels, from Lucifer and Michael all the way down to...Haiaiel, require consent from the vessel in order to occupy them. Sometimes I think that's the only thing that separates us from demonkind, but I've grown rather cynical on that front.
That was beautiful. You are clearly a force to be reckoned with.
