This from the one who plans to give the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, etc., etc., stale veggiemite sandwiches as a pressie.
I'm not going to talk to you, either. You wait til Lavinia hears about this.
Stalks off to join Angel 5 in her corner.
Here. I have chocolate. Green and blacks. Just promise me you won't start playing again, 'Kay?

Nah, don't be silly- I'm gonna give my heart, in a soprano solo, followed by a drum encore, thus fulfilling the ancient prophecies in at least 2 Christmas carols....

There. There there. Now.. um.. come on. Don't cry. We've got to go accompany these nice shepherds to Bethlehem. And see the baby again.
Maybe Mary will let you hold him. The nice one, that is. We'll leave Lavina to our gothy friend over there.

Bugger, it's probably not a good thing to get on the bad side of the Heavenly Host...ummmmmm
Brightly- What a lovely day it is today. And so close to Christmas! Why don't we go out and play hopscotch, or better still, go and look at the Christmas shop windows down at the open-air markets...
A bright smile follows!

Really? Good. Sulking isn't quite gloomy or spooky, but it's a start.
We'll make a proper Goth Angel of you yet.
Would you like to borrow my eyeliner? You can draw squiggles on your face and everything.

They're not nice shepherds. They smell funny. And they don't have proper marmite. And they made Angel 5 cry.
And they didn't give us presents.
Sothere.

*ushers Angel5 away from that nasty dark creature and offers of eyeliner*
I'm sure you can bath the baby Jesus, yep. And he won't cry or anything, because he's perfect like that. Besides, he may recognise you from his pre-incarnational existance.
Just come with me. And move over here. *keeps steering Angel5 away from the lure of the goth*
That's it. Now, do you want to do a nice loud "fear not" to wake up these shepherds? You can even do the glowy thing to lead them into Bethlehem.
casts smug grin back at Dark Angel. You may have corrupted Angel 1, a sheep and the stagehand, but you're not getting this one.

*looks devastated* Chocolate in one hand, eyeliner in the other, she trails after the heavenly pair. It's true her aura is more of, well, an anti-glow than the bright white sparklyness emited by the other two. But she tries.
But she was going to be my friend.

All right Spare Shepherd we come back to the fields
- All the other shepherds and sheep are lying very lifelessly on the ground.
- There are "Heavenly Beings" in the air.
- Spare Shepherd is unpolitically correct.
I feel we are being asked to join a cult!

I'll strangle Gabriel when I see him, really I will. Just a pleasent little trip, he said. Now I've got half the heavenly host corrupted, and the other half putting make up on the drunken shepherds.
And we're meant to be on the move to Bethlehem in the next 20 minutes.
Is there any of that alcohol left...?

Of course you can be a Goth Angel when you grow up. Just like me. We can go shopping, and do each other's hair, and paint our nails, and everything.
To see such a sweet smile on that overly-pale face could be disconcerting.

Okay. But none of that wussy ickle Jesus stuff. That's for /girls/ (Goth Angel is a girl. This is irrelevant.)
Play something to wake up those shepherds.

While shepherds watched their flocks by night, All huddled round a stove, The angel of the Lord came down And coloured one sheep mauve.
An angel black appeared to them And they were sore afeard. They tried to duck behind the sheep Or hide behind their beards.
“Fear not,” the other angels said “For we will deal with him.” The shepherds did not understand For they were rather dim.
“We know in David’s town this day The beer is rather fine. So we are heading to the pub, The Crown shall be the sign.
A heavenly brew there you shall find It’s really very good. Fermented in the age-old way Conditioned in the wood.
And by the way there also are Two babies born today One of them the Son of God The other, we can’t say.”

So, Limp Angel, you wanna play hard-ball, eh? Lets see how you look with a forced change of dressing room, and costume, and make-up. I think we were looking for a Fairy understudy a few days ago. I think you will fit in quite well. Comprende, senorita?
