The wildfires have been turning the sun red where I live.

(There's a story that goes with this. Read it here.)

the tango dynamic is just so different from the actual archangel dynamic while i also try to preserve enough of what makes the archangels so integral to each other, because they’re so codependently important to one another’s development that it means so so much to me and so much to each other’s stories that even though i’ve altered their dynamic by changing the setting (making them human, making god human, giving them peers, siblings), it’s still been my mission to make it clear that there’s something deeply, deeply intrinsic and strange about the four of them 

like you can’t simply look at raphael, or gabriel, or lucifer, or michael, you have to look at all four of them, or at the very least two of them, to get this kaleidoscope understanding of their collective psyche because they were the only ones old enough to really understand 

it’s the four of them or it’s none of them but it’s also all four of them in pairs (because gabriel looks up to michael in his way, because gabriel and raphael are twins, because lucifer and michael cling to each other even when at one another’s throats, because no one has ever understood raphael and lucifer’s sharpness like each other, because raphael leans on michael more than anyone else, because gabriel has always been lucifer’s favorite), and all of them are so explosively strange. they just,,, mean so much to me
