The Sexiest Angel in the Garrison is currently not available. I'm probably having sex with your crush or having fun doing the things you always wanted to do but never had the balls to try. Leave a message.
I think that's more on his part than hers, don't you? [He's really pulling her pigtails, poor girl. No doubt she likes him, but Gabriel doesn't think she likes-likes him. Not as much as Lucifer wants her to. Besides, Gabriel is of the opinion that she can do better.]
Weren't you going to help her anyway? Without the offer of seduction?
[Gabriel probably doesn't realise how susceptible Constantine is to Lucifer's innumerable charms.]
Go on, give me the low-down. I'd like to know what I'm dragging Greg into.
I'm not sure, Gabriel, and I already dragged myself through one spat involving you and Greg. I'm not up for slogging my way through another. Not as messy as those two make it.
[John shakes his head and tips his chair back to try and unkink the tensed parts of his back and legs.]
I was, yeah. It started out him offering me some 'company', went into seduction and then abruptly ended with him retaking his seat and reminding me to help her. Weirdest fucking thing I've had happen in awhile, and I was Lost for nearly two months.
[He sighs and goes on, omitting some information Gabe doesn't need to know.]
She's hearing some of his thoughts, claiming he said them to her. He's careless enough of others to do so and not care, but then he brought up them sharing a dream of her giving childbirth. Seems that the sensation of pushing a baby out is enough to make even the devil quail. I don't know what it is, and I'm too much of an exorcist to put myself back in a situation where another Lucifer makes me feel powerless.
[Okay, John clearly, really clearly, does not want to go into detail of what actually happened. But it sounds very much like Constantine got a lap-dance from the devil. Well that's the first time Gabriel has ever heard of anything like that and it's extremely weird, especially as by default, Gabriel is still picturing his own brother when anyone mentions Lucifer. It's a horrifying mental image, and that's why he doesn't press for more information. If he had pictured Constantine's own Lucifer, he might have dug a little more, because that devil is hot stuff.]
I'm surprised it's not driven her mad, hearing the devil in her head. Then again, yours doesn't seem to have that many horrific thoughts. Maybe nightmares about birth will help him keep his pants on.
[Poor Lucifer. Gabriel doesn't actually feel sorry for him at all. He feels more sorry for Chloe, but she'd probably be better talking to Greg than to him. He and his not-brother are due a talk anyway. Maybe they'll get a chance at Silks, if not before.]
[More like John was deathly afraid of such. It was all well and good for him to fuck up his relationships. Those other people were having? Not so much.]
She's a remarkably level person, Gabriel. I wouldn't say that he doesn't. I think most of them are self-hating though. I don't know why, but ... it rings bells with me.
[Meaning some of the self-destructive shit Lucifer does reminds John of himself.]
Thank you, Gabriel. I owe you one for that, and that isn't something I say lightly. I just can't be trusted with this.
If you're in the middle of a two-some, technically by that point it's a threesome and the middle is the best place to be, in my experience.
[ That wouldn't be John's fault. That would be Gabriel's, and don't worry, Gabriel has fucked up many more relationships than John ever has. If fucking up relationships was an olympic sport, Gabriel wouldn't have even been selected for the team because he'd had a disastrous relationship with one of the selection committee.]
It's an angel thing. Most of us have that problem, but it's probably worse for my brother and his variations. None of us are perfect. Although most angels don't judge themselves very harshly.
You know how you could pay me back? Gabe. Not Gabriel. I'm only Gabriel when I've don't something bad, okay? I'm not all for formality.
I have a puppy for you that is determined to gnaw on as much of me as it can. Maybe it's a demon puppy. I think it has eyes back there in all that yellow fur and slobbery tongue.
I guess you should drop it off then before it nibbles any more of your extremities? Bring it over to my place, you can eat some of this ...Lancashire Hot Pot. I'm not sure if it's meant to look like this, but you Britishers are the experts.

[Drop that subject like a weight. John was behind Gabe a little and would have at least made the team to come home with the gold.]
Angels usually believe they're above it all with what I've seen.
Gabe. Fine. Funny since mine insisted on 'Gabriel'.
no subject
[John's got to be a Champion at something right? He's being too harsh on himself again]
Angel's are assessed. Look at me I'm a prime example.
Yeah well. I'd like to celebrate the many differences in have with that guy if you don't mind.
