Larry stared at the magazine a bit longer that was probably socially acceptable.  "Huh.  Not bad, eh."  He coughed.  "So what's up with those seraphs?"

"Oh, they're kind of weird, in a way. Pretty close to the source, and they've got a whole lot of wings that they use to keep their bodies covered. You can usually look at them just fine."

"When the wingth part, though, betht to avert your eyeth."

"Yeah, being flashed by a seraph when you're not an angel sends you right into our space, and you're technically dead then. But you're in the heavens after that, no matter what you've done so far, so it has a lot of pluses. Too bad that assholes can get into heaven that way, though."

"Even demonth, apparently, which ith problematic, thinthe they have no way to tell arrivalth apart. They all look like virtuouth mortalth."

Larry nodded slowly.  "Uh.. huh.  What about that shot of holy Cal gave me to get here?  That enough?"

((To see one safely, if that's not clear.))

"Well, there'th one way to find out," the Oldthinker shrugs, retrieving a single seraph issue. "Wanna try?"

"Water's ready!" Phinny shouts from the kitchen.

"Bring thome here! the Oldthinker shouts back. "Tho. How about it? You're already in heaven, after all."

Larry furrowed his brow (not that he'd ever say that in reality.)  "Um.  And if that doesn't work?"

"Being part angel should help, even if not protect you entirely, I think."

"If you start feeling hot, look away."

Larry was used to peer pressure.  Avoiding it, though, was not his strong suit.

"Uhh.. okay, sure."


Take the Seraph Challenge.  Look away if it's too much, because cowardice trumps false bravado.

Hmm. Lemme try one first, then I'll see if I'll take the box.

Fork over 2 dollars from my bit of money and take a glazed donut. Devour.

((Also, can I get a GM ruling on how much money I have?))

Let's say about twenty on hand, about two hundred total in your bank account.

Let's say 70 plus change on hand, about two hundred total in your bank account.

But overall, money's pretty much abstracted. It's assumed you have enough for most needs, and that's certainly true enough for you right now.

That's as many as thirteen and a half tens!
