Who: Ruler (Joan) and Archer (David)
Where: At the church
When: Backdated to January 24th right before the Dark Hour
What: Little sister introduces older brother to Christianity, then purse owners happen.
Rating: PG-13 at most for fighting/violence?
Status: Closed
[ Of course he agreed to his little sister's offer to go practice their religion together - as siblings should, after all-, but.. he did not quite expect to run into a building like this used for religion here, considering he's Jewish and has never heard of this whole Christianity deal before..
So forgive him if he's just lineface staring at the church building as they're standing outside late at night right in front of it, as if he's almost inspecting it. What. :| ]

Is there something troubling you, David?
no subject
I was merely.. curious about this place, I suppose. Is this where religion is practiced nowadays? [ TODAY'S YOUTH I SWEAR GEEZ ] It seems a little different.
no subject
Yes, I suppose that is only natural. There those still who choose to worship our Lord within the temples, but you will find nowadays that many attend mass at church for that.
no subject
... Well, if it is truly the place to worship God now, then I do suppose I will have to adapt with the times. [ looking at her, and smiling allllmost. ] After all, I have you to teach me.
no subject
You can be rest assured then that I will answer any and all questions you have. It may seem rather different at first, but I believe they will become familiar to you soon enough.
no subject
[ opening up the door to the church.. SNEAKING IN AT NIGHT AWW YEAH. ]
no subject
Also idk what the church looks like in this place but LET'S PRETEND IT'S PRETTY stained glass windows and all that shit.]
Let's see now... these seats here would be the pews, and up ahead is the altar.
no subject
And the altar is where the main rituals are carried out, right? [ at least seeing if that is the same.. ]
no subject
Yes, that much at least has remained the same I believe.
no subject
It is rather strange to see the places of worship have changed such, but.. I can almost feel the same kind of spirit coming from this place.
[ ... WOAH WAIT.. pointing at that big cross behind the altar WOAH!! ]
What purpose does that serve, then?
no subject
Ah, that is meant to symbolize the cross upon which Jesus Christ was nailed. [Oh yeah he wouldn't know about him would he... THAT'S OKAY GOTTA EXPLAIN HER FAVORITE STUFF!!] And he... is also our Lord and savior. The only son of God, sent down from God as promised.
no subject
Lord and savior..? [ He can't help but frown a little at that, just a little distrustful, but.. ] The messiah the prophets heralded?
[ If there's such a religion based around him now, aside from God.. well, then it should be legit, right? He has no reason to believe Joan is lying, either way, so.. ]
I understand. After all, God must have committed many more great miracles and works after my time, so the religion has changed accordingly along with it.
no subject
[YAAAAY she has big brother's approval! \o/] I am so glad to hear that! It is just as you have said, so there is no need to worry.
no subject
Is this the kind of religion you participated in during your life too, Joan?
no subject
Yes, it is. I suppose some of the practices are slightly different, [or I'm just making BS up but hey they were pretty YOU MUST FOLLOW THIS OR YOU WILL DIE A SINNER back in the day] but overall it still feels very much the same.
no subject
It must be nice to still be able to practice your faith in nearly the same way, in that case--
[ He stops talking midway what he was going to say because what's this.. omnious feeling.. and why is the light turning green.. ]
no subject
OHHH NOOOO NOT THE WEIRDASS PISS GREEN LIGHT!!! I mean no this is unnerving and uncomfortable cries.]
This must be...!
no subject
[ He's already suspiciously glancing around since this can't be good man awww shit. ]
no subject
It would be best to find some means of defending ourselves. Even a broom would be better than nothing at this point.
no subject
I would feel horrible though for disturbing the peace in God's house, even if it was just by merely taking one of the candlesticks, but--
[ He stops, turning sharply when he hears something, and that's when he seems some Shadows already emerging from.. well, the shadows. SHADOWCEPTION. ]
no subject
no subject
But yes hiding behind a pew pew pew... But he's still glancing around it a little to look at the Shadows. ]
I do not think there is a peaceful option possible in this kind of situation.. These creatures can't be negotiated with.
no subject
Indeed. Without a weapon, our best choice may be to flee, but... [Leaving a church to be ravaged by Shadows SHE IS NOT OKAY WITH THAT.]
no subject
It is better to just face them head on. Who knows what will happen if we would allow them to do as they please here? [ BESIDES THEY'RE SERVANTS those don't hide behind pews man..!! ]
no subject
But I mean okay she nods firmly THIS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS.] I agree. However, rushing in blind will only bring trouble.
[if only i was actually good at plans mfw i am not a strategist like joan WORST RPER EVER]
no subject
No.. This place is a holy place, a place devoted to God's worship. I will not allow them to soil it no matter what, so may God's help be with me.
[ aka HE'S JUST GOING OUT FROM BEHIND THE PEW TO STAND THERE NEAR THE SHADOWS.
no subject
Wait, Brother--! [Aw shit man what are you doing NO CHOICE BUT TO FOLLOW HIM OUT NOW.]
no subject
then out of nowhere a giantass figure appears above him out of nowhere and it has wings shit man it's an angel!!
AN ANGEL!!
except it's sort of spirity since it's a Persona and all but oh my god it's slaying that Shadow going for David!! ]
no subject
WHOA MAN
WHOAAAAAAA MAAAAAAAN
no really she is just staring in complete shock because 1) WHAT IS THAT and 2) IS THAT AN ANGEL OMG NOSTALGIAAA
which is really bad because she's a sitting duck like this]
no subject
Thou art I and I art thou,
For thou who seeks the power to protect others and carry out thy duty, I, Michael, shall fight by your side.
no subject
no subject
[ That's David speaking again he seems.. a little.. recovered from the shock because omg what was that?! At least it took down one of the Shadows, the others are a little further back still, so David glances at her over his shoulder, the Persona still floating in the air above him. ]
... You are alright, aren't you, Joan?
no subject
[still
staring at his persona i'm sorry just
what]
And you?
no subject
[ Even if he's.. eyeing the angel a little too.. hi there dude.. ]
