No one say ANYTHING to Ella Lopez about demons or angels or whatever until I can talk to her!

[ ... ]

This is totally gonna freak her out.

Most mortals don't take it well.

[thevulnerability]

I wouldn't say she's most mortals but I have no idea which way this is going to affect her.

[ Good news is she already believes in this stuff so it should go over okay. Right? ]

[sathan]

No one does until they know.
Though she already knows I'm a witch.

( they talked about the superpowers here she admits that to people now )

[thevulnerability]

Great. That's great. I'm so glad people check the group text.

[ Why did she even bother, this is obviously going to spiral out of control. ]

[sathan]

This didn't exist when I met her.

[thevulnerability]

Yeah okay. I should have been quicker about that. But it didn't occur to me that we'd need one until she got here.

[sathan]

So you contacted each angel and demon you knew?
Why her?

[thevulnerability]

She's my best friend. And she believes in all of this. I'm worried about how she'll take it.

[sathan]

( ugh a believer in the false god )

If she already believes it exists it won't be too surprising.

[thevulnerability]

That's not the point. Believing and knowing aren't the same thing.

[sathan]

Did you believe?

[thevulnerability]

No. I never believed in any of it.

[ She hesitates in sending the next text, but she does anyway. ]

I didn't believe but I think a part of me knew.

[sathan]

You knew?

[thevulnerability]

Part of me. Somehow. I can't explain it.

I just knew Lucifer wasn't lying, but I didn't want to hear the real truth.

[sathan]

( she can't decide how foolish she finds that )

Her truth will be different.

[thevulnerability]

I just hope it doesn't hurt her.
