[color=blue]"What I desire would probably send you into a fit, Velo, and it is most certainly not something you alone could grant me,"[/color] Azrael replied, directing his gaze towards the emperor. [color=blue]"Unless, of course, you possess a means of eradicating every last human on the planet..."[/color]

The fallen seraph paused only for the briefest of moments before continuing, an implication laden smirk twisting the pale features of his face the only foreshadowing to his response.

[color=blue]"Yourself included."[/color]

Perhaps it was a stupid thing to say. A foolish revelation that ultimately underminded his position here among this group of abyssal misfits, but then again, what will be will be. There was no going back now. Granted, it wasn't as though he'd have taken back his words in any case. Despite their discussions over the years and shared hatred of humanity Azrael still saw Velo as a human, albeit one who had managed to luck his way into immortality, and as such had a certain amount of disdain for the fellow. A feeling that was only compounded further by the man's arrogant attitude. He supposed it made sense, since Velo couldn't technically be killed as far as he knew, but by the Seventeen was it annoying.

[color=blue]"But, of course, you don't,"[/color] Azrael said, pushing such thoughts to the recesses of his mind for the time being. [color=blue]"Even if you did you still wouldn't use it, that much I know for sure. You'd rather rule the humans than eradicate them. A foolish goal far more difficult to achieve than mine own given their rebellious natures. Still-"[/color]

He pauses once more, clasping his hands behind his back this time as his expression returns to its usual stoic state.

[color=blue]"There's no accounting for [i]taste[/i] I suppose. All of that aside, however, I'm more concerned with what you can do in the here and now."[/color] 

Azrael takes a step forward, his eyes catlike slits of cold calculation.

[color=blue]"We still need to make our way out of this place,"[/color] he says, gesturing to the cavernous space around them. [color=blue]"And seeing how our vampiric [i]friend[/i] abandoned us, I'd say we need to join forces now more than ever. Two heads are better than one after all, and unlike the bloodsucker, I am more than willing to hold up my end of the agreement."[/color]

He cocks his head to the side slightly, a sly smile making its way across his face.

[color=blue]"So, what do you say?"[/color]
