Spotted on the rewatch: how much Michael asks or tries to ask questions.
In the Job incident, they’re the one eyeing Bildad the Shuhite with doubt. They’re the one querying the ‘birthing’ process while Gabriel is standing there like :)  They’re the one asking if these are in fact the new children? They’re the one grilling Aziraphale.
In Heaven, they do the same, but not as directly. As if earth is the place where questions can be asked directly, but when it comes to Heaven, you have to tread carefully. And especially when Gabriel shoots down Armageddon 2.0. “May I ask why”, they say and Gabriel gives them permission to ask but doesn’t deign to give them an answer when they do.
As Uriel and the Metatron pointed out, there’s an institutional problem afoot with people not doing what they’re meant to do. Holding on to the top spot means diplomacy, tact and not asking/saying the wrong thing, otherwise you could end up naked in Soho with no memory.

what are your tips for things to do to spend time before it's time for queuing? I'm notoriously bad at thinking up stuff that aren't finding a fun place to go eat
It depends on how early you’re getting to London and what you like to do. *puts on the donmar warehouse official voice* luckily our theatre is in the heart of central London with many attractions nearby. If you’re looking for arts: somerset House is just a ten minute walk and has a lovely gallery. The British museum is also close.
Personally I would grab breakfast at the ivy market grill and then hang out at the foyles bookstore that’s just around the corner from the theatre just browsing books and being cozy and reading. You can also walk around soho a bit and explore the shops.

At Work or Play, Always Paul Cascio
Tumblr media
He was already near the top.  Paul Cascio’s office on Two World Trade Center’s 84th floor summarized his professional and personal trajectory.  Living large was a principle he followed before, during, and after work.  Consistent living allows for steadily getting ahead.
The ambitious believe there’s no reason to wait for advancement.  One can reach promotions before a certain age that comes to mind for those who burden themselves with limits.  Serving as vice president at financial brokerage company Euro Brokers was an impressive title for someone who was 23 years old.  But such steps come naturally to the motivated.  Paul didn’t think he was too young to be an executive.  He was right.
Approaching work in a similar manner to free moments doesn’t just make the day go by faster: it establishes a mentality that makes every aspect fulfilling.  Paul was renowned for his commitment to achievement no matter the life area.  Recreation was a game which he seemed to always win.  
The vigorous competitor excelled at sports in the way frequently seen by bold types who take initiative.  He played many as a reflection of his diverse interests and restless nature.  The multitasking athlete was a high school swimmer, baseball player, and cross country runner.  A teammate to many was honored with a varsity letter that was previously possible to view at the 9/11 Memorial Museum's In Memoriam gallery as part of exhibit titled Comeback Season: Sports After 9/11.  He posthumously showed the value of coming together for enjoying the thrill of games when it didn’t seem like we’d ever experience joy again.
The personal sporting artifact served as a particular notable lesson about play’s value that represented the objective of museum’s presentation.  Sports serve as a metaphor for what goes on between games.  Participants present admirable characteristics on their own that are transferable to other scenarios.  Prevailing despite a competition’s limits and physical obstacles is for determined people who complete tasks with zeal away from venues, too.  Pins for a handful of sports befit someone with ample activities lined up.  He didn’t skip seasons.
The embodiment of driven behavior reached goals while he wasn’t playing, as well.  The graduate of Long Island’s Manhasset Secondary School went on to do the same at the University of Vermont.  Cherish what’s accomplished by those in our lives while they’re still with us to respect the memory of Paul as one of 11 alumni murdered.
Paul knew how to make the most of whatever.  Even his living situation signified his irrepressible personality.  He resided in fashionable SoHo where he often hosted friends while grilling on his rooftop in a combination of living comfortably and his natural tendency to create the epicenter of socializing.
Rapid personal progress shows a dynamic individual applying himself.  A similar principle follows out of the workspace.  People remain constant when they’re not being paid.  The same person who toiled figuratively high in the company and literally in the sky was the one who made the most of occasions away from his desk, too.
The simplest way to have fun is to work hard first.  A little spending money leads to the chance to jet anywhere desired.  An impressive job enabled frequent excursions.  Paul took having fun seriously.  He became legendary for putting together impromptu trips that began as casual half-serious ideas, embodied by jetting to Los Angeles and Dublin just to see his favorite band U2 in concert.  You might never think of an offhand comment about international travel becoming an actual experience.  That is because you were not friends with Paul, who made a hobby out of turning crazy suggested notions into reality.
It’s easy to appreciate a legacy that’s seen in countless online guestbook posts lamenting his loss by lauding how much he added to our world.  His tribute page features a suitably lengthy feed of remembrances from childhood buddies, college pals, and relatives who seem like they would have gladly befriended Paul were they not lucky enough to be related to him.  Fond accounts are packed with memories of adventures on campus and around the globe which all share him as a common feature.
Mourners can pay tribute at different locations to someone who put so much into many endeavors.  Mount Saint Mary Cemetery in Flushing serves as the site of rest for a person who was continually in motion.  Paul is also commemorated on Panel S-30 of the South Pool of the National September 11 Memorial.  The vice president is one of 61 Euro Brokers employees with names gathered together.  An immeasurably devastating loss at just one company is a staggering illustration of the attack on humanity’s scale.
By any measure, Paul was a success far beyond his limited years as seen by his thriving career and invigorating take on existence.  A giant personality who lived accordingly also epitomized decency.  His final act put who he was on display: Paul and a coworker went to help someone in need of assistance after the attack in a decision that may have cost him his life while showing what he made of it.  Paul Regan Cascio was the best sort of person in the worst circumstances.  He set an aspirational example that continues.  To this day, Paul lived a lot.

Is a sinigang ramen possible? Apparently yes.
Ramo Ramen in London's Soho district merges a sampalok (tamarind) broth with noodles, nori, roasted tomato, soft-boiled egg, and two grilled prawns making this a seafood and halal sinigang ramen.
I also enjoyed the art there.

❄️ for the WIP game!
Snowflake "Share a snippet from a WIP of your choosing."
Hm. Tricky. Because the WIP that I'm actually almost done with is my non-Sandman one, and I don't know which of the ones after that is going to get done next. (Still trying to get my brain back up and running after catching covid and losing all of last week.)
So you get a snippet from "How to handle territorial aggression in your anthropomorphic personification " one that I have no idea when I might actually get around to finishing it. This is my "Hob Gadling rescues Dream from Roderick Burgess in 1989 but not only is Dream not grateful he's really pissed off about it," fic.
Morpheus came back about two weeks later. Not in any normal way, of course, damn him. But when Hob returned home one evening he found him already there, stretched out in a chair in his sitting room, looking morose.
“Good to see you,” Hob said cautiously. 
“I have returned, as I said I would,” Dream said, sounding absolutely miserable about it.
"So I see. To reward me, or to punish me?"
He wasn't particularly worried about the answer to that question. He felt certain that if there was to be smiting, it would have been done at once, as it had before they’d left Fawney Rig. At the moment, Morpheus seemed more tired than angry; perhaps whatever he'd been up to for the last few weeks had tempered his rage.
And Hob had also had enough time that his own anger had cooled. He'd had enough time to start moving financial assets and planning his next 'death,' should the wrong people from either  mundane or supernatural worlds come looking for him, knowing that he'd moved to rescue his friend with more urgency than guile.
He'd also had the time to go back to Soho to see if Mr. Fell wanted his books back, and to grill him for information about exactly what kind of title ‘Dream of the Endless’ was. 
(In point of fact he had stormed in, slammed the books on the counter, and barely gotten out a thank you, before demanding "Now what exactly did I just break out of jail?")

NEW YORK OR NOWHERE
A December and white Christmas in NYC was everything and more. The city captures an energy that is pretty unmatched and if it is anywhere else in the world that I could move to in this lifetime, it would be New York.
This trip came at the right time - the last week of December/the year so it felt like a whole good reward after some very busy months for my husband and I. This time around we got to enjoy and explore the city differently as we firstly stayed in a new neighbourhood, Chelsea. Chelsea has a more residential appeal to it and also everything in the corner of your eyes - supermarkets, pharmacies, restaurants etc
Listing everything we did and ate below to help you plan your NYC trip :)
Where We Stayed:
Motto by Hilton, Chelsea - I was deliberating between staying around Chelsea or SoHo but glad we decided on the first as it is much quieter and super convenient to get around.
Other Places We Were Looking At:
The Moore - not too far from where we stayed but was full when we were looking into our dates.
Ludlow Hotel - very pretty and has a gorgeous bathroom but location wasn't ideal for us although we did come to the area here and there for food places we had saved.
Everything We Ate:
7th Street Burger: when I tell you my husband has been thinking about this place for a whole year since our last visit, he really did. Super laid-back burger joint around the city that was suggested by my cousin who lives in nyc - so you know it is a local favourite.
Court Sq Diner: an old school, quality dinner serving all of your American menu favourites from pancakes to grilled cheese.
La Cabra Coffee: you'll notice this around the East Village and SoHo areas and a favourite for a reason. Coffee, matcha and their cardamon buns to love.
Abiko Curry: we love a good Japanese curry house and this was one located at K Town. The different levels of spice always makes it more fun too.
Lulla NYC: an Italian restaurant and cafe that is part of our hotel and our daily morning coffee would always start here and their iced oat honey latte hits the spot.
Librae Bakery: you'll smell this from one block away - stunning bakery picks with a Mediterranean twist.
Russ & Daughters: no introduction needed for this bagel spot in the nyc food scene. I always go for an everything/garlic bagel with scallion cream cheese, red onions and cappers.
Do Not Feed Alligators: good coffee and an interesting name of cafe tucked in Greenwich Village.
Bleeker St Pizza: in a world where Sex & The City and Friends met, this would probably be their neighbourhood pizza place together just because it is in the middle of both their homes.
Adel's Famous Halal Food: you can skip all other food carts and go straight to here, parked just opposite Radio City. Menu is simple, queue can be extremely long but food is so good and hits better on a winter night.
Apollo Bagels: the current cool bagel kid on the block. Different bagel spot, same bagel order.
From Lucie: i wasn't going to mention things that we had visited last year but not skipping this one because they do the best lavendar oat latte and their cakes are v pretty.
PopUp Grocer: another cool grocery store kid on the block, carrying different local brands from granola, canned fish, dips and oils but they also do a good coffee menu and with interesting flavours too like a cinnamon bun latte? yum.
L'Industrie Pizza, Williamsburg: the team at their Williamsburg joint was so very cute and it genuinely looks like they are enjoying their time.
Bakeri, Williamsburg: returned for the second time and it did not disappoint - from their cozy atmosphere to their menu options.
Milk Bar: here for the nostalgia and also because I wanted my husband to try their Milk Bar Pie or famously known before as their Crack Pie. Goodness in every bite.
Tappo: an Italian restaurant on our street, serving comforting pizza and pasta options.
Rhythm Zero, Brooklyn: they say everyone loves this place and I can see why - no fuss coffee spot and your city locals just going about their daily routine over good coffee, matcha and baked goods.
Los Tacos: was a little skeptical at first but we ended up loving it though I do want to try other Mexican spots that is less crowded on our next visit.
In a New York state of mind always. More of NYC:
I vlogged my trip daily on TikTok

September Sky Chapter Eight, Part 7
Justin rolled his eyes and Amber laughed. I guess one out of two isn't bad. It isn't good, but fifty percent is passing right? I went back to my normal silence, listening to Justin and Amber flirt around each other. I wanted to yell at them to just get it over with. But I didn't. And I wouldn't. I had made a promise to Amber, and I tried my hardest to keep my promises.
"Chris!" Amber yelled, jerking me out of my disassociation.
"Huh? What?" I jerked back, almost knocking down my forgotten beer. "Did you want another or not?"
"No thanks." I was walking home, and could easily have had another but I felt I'd had enough. I knew that if I drank past this point, I'd end up drunk, and that isn't close to what I wanted to do. The walk wasn't far, but a mile or two can seem like crossing the country when your hammered.
Amber didn't pour herself another and Justin was just about finished with his drink. It was almost time to go home. I really didn't want to go home though. I was in that mood to socalize, and with how rare that feelings comes, I wanted to make the most of it.
"You want a ride?" Justin asked as he got up off his stool. Both Amber and Justin always offered a ride on nights like this. I always turn it down. Even though I trusted them both more than I trusted most people, it didn't change the fact that I was a paranoid and an extremely private person. I hadn't always been, but that can change in an instant.
"Nah, I'm good." Besides I liked the walk. I liked having my headphones on and belting along to punk rock songs. I'm sure I woke a few people on some nights. Sometimes, i got a little out of control with my singing along. They say the whole world's a stage, and I suffer from stage fright. Doctor's call it anxiety.
"You're the only person I know who turns down a free ride." Amber said.
"What can I say? I like the walk. It's good exercise anyway."
"You get exercise in the kitchen." Justin added his two cents.
"Not really. I stand at the pass."
"You do more than stand at the window."
"True. Sometimes I turn around and grill." I said. Justin chuckled, and sipped down tbe last swallow.
We followed Amber out the door, and since I walked out last, I turned around and locked the front door. Amber and Justin headed towards their vehicles. The two cars looked out of place in the otherwise empty parking lot.
"You sure you don't want a ride?" Justin shouted one last time. I just put my hand up and put my headphones, flicking through my IPod for some song that catches me and starts the soundtrack to my walking. I heard the vehicles start up. Amber's radio was turned up way too high, and bubblegum pop poured out of her car for just a second or two.
Justin drove off in the opposite direction. Amber drove past me, honking her horn as she drove past. I held up a hand loosely as I was still looking for a song to start. I guess we were lucky that the Red Arm wasn't near any residental places, because we sure made a lot of noise when we left.
I finally decided on Rancid's "Ruby Soho" and when it started playing, I put my boots to the concrete. I sang along. I did every walk. It was kind of a release, really. I didn't worry if I was singing good or not. It didn't matter. I'd scream at the top of my lungs, at least until I did get into a residental neighborhood. Punks can be polite too.
But the first part of the walk was always spent singing loudly and just putting it all on a plate. And some songs would make me feel like I could take on the world. And others were sang with almost tears in my eyes. And it didn't matter which way it went, I'd still belt along. It was part of the reason why I liked those walks home. The closest I'll ever get to a religious moment, it was on those nights, dropping my shelf and being vulnerable in a way that seemed safe.
Maybe that's the reason I hadn't gotten mugged yet. Who mugs a guy who's screeching to Psyclon Nine? I have to look bat shit insane when I'd walk.
Once I got into the residental area, I stopped singing. Instead using the ten minutes until I got home to think. And like any other time, that meant I thought about Addison. Of course I did.
I had officially accepted the fact that not only did I love her, but I was also deeply in love with her. It scared me, a lot more than it should. But love is scary, and I'd given up on it. I'm shoved the thought of it so far back in my brain that I almost forgot all about it. My last experience with it had left me a broken and beaten down person. How do I know that's not going to happen? I mean, I don't see that at all in Addison, but I didn't see it with Emily either, There was no way for me to be sure, which meant I had to take a risk in anything I do with Addison. She's already pulled me out of my shell and found the old me. And she's able to sometimes get that person out here. The loud and fun-loving weirdo.
And then there's always the problem of figuring out how to tell her. But am I early and falling too fast? What if she doesn't love me. What if she runs and I never see her again? What if, what if, what if! By the time I put my key into the door, I was still giving myself a thousand reasons to keep my mouth shut and figure it out later.
I stopped my music and stepped quietly into the house. The ever present gunshots from Dennis's room greeted me. I sighed and headed for my room. I didn't know if Tom was around, but that information isn't needed. I grabbed my bathroom stuff and headed to take a quick shower. I had to get the grease off of me.
After my shower, I laid down on my mattress and put my laptop on my stomach. A quick look at Facebook showed nothing, and I started scrolling down, reading the days news, and the updates made by my best friends and of unkown strangers.
My phone buzzed and scared the shit out of me. I stared at it, almost daring it to buzz again. And despite my angered look, it buzzed again. There's only two people on this planet that would call me this late, or it's the kind of phone call that never goes great. It's rare for a good phone call to happen at three in the morning.
But all of that rushed away when I saw the number. "Hello?" Even knowing who's on the other line, we all seem to answer with that simple question.
"Hey, I hope it's not too late." A perfect voice said from the other line.

One Week in London
I love London. This March was my second time spending a full week here, the first being in September 2019, and it was still as pretty, clean, polite, multicultural, and full of good food, museums, bookstores, and walks. More than once I found myself wondering if London is a better version of NYC...
Stay
Both times we stayed at the wonderful St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel. It's connected to St. Pancras Station, making for near-zero commute when we got off the Eurostar from Paris. St. Pancras is also connected to King's Cross Station, providing excellent access to many Tube lines (and, of course, Platform 9 3/4). The hotel is gorgeous, with a stunning lobby; the rooms are comfortable and well-equipped (not like an American hotel, where it's iffy if you'll get tea, let alone biscuits, in the room no matter the level of luxury); the gym is pretty good and even has a Peloton; and the staff are consistently friendly, attentive, and helpful. Some of the Google reviews complain that the rooms are a bit run-down, but that has not been my experience. Maybe it's not in the league of the Ritz Carltons of the world, but this is one of my all-around favorite hotels.
That said, I spent most of my days between Chelsea and Covent Garden, which are southwest of St. Pancras, and I do think staying somewhere around there would be slightly more central for a tourist trip.
Eat (Vegetarian)
I love that London has so many vegetarian-friendly food options - even more than NYC, I think - and I appreciate that many menus have Indian-inspired food items. Everything I ate was good. In order from favorite to least favorite (though I'd gladly eat at any of these again):
Dishoom - Indian food, multiple locations (we've been to the King's Cross and Covent Garden ones). It's a sit-down restaurant that leans toward fast casual and has a whimsical feel. It's not specifically vegetarian, but I think the food is excellent. We loved the grilled paneer tikka, black chickpea salad, and black dal. They don't take reservations and the waits can be long, but we went for a late (~2:30pm) lunch on a Friday and didn't have to wait.
The Barbary - North African food, located between Covent Garden and Soho. The food is Mediterranean small plates and we loved everything we tried. It's not all vegetarian, and the main shortfall is that there wasn't any meaningful vegetarian protein. But the creative style of the dishes reminded me a bit of abcV, one of our favorite restaurants in NYC. Probably best to get a reservation given there aren't many seats, but we were able to walk in on a Sunday around 6:30pm. This was the fanciest place I ate (besides a friend's private social club, which was next level), though still not super fancy.
Bubala - Mediterranean vegetarian food in SoHo. I ordered the vegetarian mezze for lunch, which was a delightful spread of 8-9 small plates that were perfect for sharing with a friend. There is also a vegan mezze option. Probably best to get a reservation, but I walked in 10 minutes after they opened and was able to get a table.
Itadaziken - Vegan Japanese food in King's Cross. In my opinion, it's hard to go wrong with vegan Japanese. They have ramen (which was good, but not as great as Ippudo) and a sizeable selection of small plates. I love that they have multiple tofu dishes - the tofu steak was great, the kara-age tofu (fried) was tasty but probably not the healthiest, and the cucumber kimchi, grilled eggplant, and sushi were all pretty good (would maybe try some other plates instead next time). The mochi was okay, I probably wouldn't get it again.
Caravan - Vegetarian-friendly European food, multiple locations. I shared several small plates with a friend and enjoyed them all. The tofu was very good but a tiny serving. I'd totally go back. We had a reservation and my friend said she had tried to walk in 3x before and couldn't get a table without a res.
Mortimer House Kitchen - "Elevated global fare" in Fitzrovia, just north of Soho. I went for breakfast and found many appealing options. It was packed, definitely make a reservation, although we lucked out and managed to get a table for 2 without a res.
Thenga Cafe - Vegetarian food, located in the YMCA near King's Cross. This was like a cafeteria for vegetarian Indian food, and the food tasted home-cooked (there is no greater compliment). I really liked the dosa wrap at lunch. It was wonderful to have an option like this while on the road for over a week -- it felt like a break from standard restaurant food.
Granger & Co - Vegetarian-friendly Australian food, multiple locations. We went for lunch and really enjoyed the chopped salad with a side of tofu. The curry with tofu was okay, but a bit too doused in curry powder. In the past I've enjoyed breakfast/brunch there.
Mildred's - Vegetarian food, multiple locations. I tried the fried rice with tofu and it was pretty good -- good portion of tofu, but I'm not a big fried rice fan and wish they had a less carb-heavy tofu option.
Koya Soho - Udon, located in Soho. I am not a huge fan of udon (though I don't dislike it either), but I thought the tofu udon was good. It's really small and seems hard to get into, but we went close to opening time and got the last 2 seats for lunch.
Museums
It's delightful and mind-boggling that London has so many phenomenal museums and most are free -- for everyone, not just for locals. In order of my favorite to least favorite (though again, I really like them all):
National Gallery - This is the national art museum, opened exactly 200 years ago in 1824 by an order of Parliament. Its goal was to showcase British art, although it includes art from across Europe (and a handful of American artworks as well). The first floor spans the 13th-15th centuries and the second floor covers everything after that until the 1920s. There is a free Museum Highlights tour on Tu-Th from 3-4pm and I really enjoyed this (thankfully, it only covers the 2nd floor...I was not sad to skip the medieval art). Entrance is free -- the website says to book online, but nobody checked my ticket.
British Museum - I didn't visit this time, but I loved this museum last time I was here and spent much more time than expected wandering through the fascinating exhibits. Also free to visit. They have some paid tours that you can book in advance.
Natural History Museum - I really like this museum. There are fascinating exhibits on dinosaurs, human evolution, and more. Entrance is free and, though I booked a ticket online, nobody checked my ticket onsite. It's a short walk from Chelsea so I enjoyed heading there afterwards.
Churchill War Rooms - This museum covers the underground area from which Churchill managed Britain's efforts in WW2. It is not free -- it was 32 pounds pp and comes with an audio guide. We spent about 90 minutes here and my favorite part was the Churchill Museum. It's an interesting museum, and if you're a Churchill aficionado it's pretty cool. Personally I enjoyed reading The Splendid and The Vile, Eric Larson's very fun book on Churchill, more than visiting this museum. It is located right by St. James Park, which is gorgeous. We enjoyed walking the 20-30 minute loop around the lake in the park.
Tate Modern - Modern art museum. I am not big on modern art but they have some really famous pieces. I visited last time I was in London and believe entrance is free.
London has many more museums which we didn't have a chance to visit -- Sir John Soane's Museum (art museum, free) and The Courtald Gallery at Somerset House came highly recommended.
Other Stuff To Do
The West End: While there's a lot of overlap between shows on Broadway and the West End, I've really enjoyed seeing Matilda and Les Miserables on the West End during my trips here. Sometimes the West End has tickets that are cheaper than anything I've seen on Broadway (like 20 pounds for the Matilda ticket in 2019) if you buy from the TKTS booth in person or the TKTS website.
Parks: Between this and our 2019 trip to London, I've enjoyed walking in Hyde Park, St. Regent's Park, St. James Park, and up to Primrose Hill for a lovely, peaceful view of London. Hampstead Heath also came highly recommended to me for its walking trails. And I recall Kew Gardens, the botanical gardens ~an hour outside the city by Tube, being really wonderful from when I visited London in high school with my family.
Bookstores: Ah, so many delightful bookstores! I was pretty basic and just went to Waterstones (Chelsea, though there are many locations) and Hatchard's (Piccadilly) and had a great time browsing. There are plenty of Instagram reels showing off other, iconic bookshops in the city.
Shopping: While London shopping has a lot of overlap with options in NYC, there are some stores that I've only found in London -- Selfridges (iconic department store in Mayfair), Fortnum & Mason (delicious teas, jams, chocolates, etc.; main store in Piccadilly), Strathberry (gorgeous handbags), Sweaty Betty (they've shut down their NYC stores in the last few years), and Varley (upscale athleisure). I'm sure I've missed a few. I also just enjoyed walking along Regent Street in Soho and King's Road in Chelsea for a lot of shops clustered nearby.

location; the red lantern one would think that opal fontaine would only take herself to more lavish watering holes, brought by the promise of beautifully cut glasses and the need to be admired. and yet, it was in soho's own (and only) izakaya that the star of the old world casino made her home for the evening, hands around a pint of beer with a straw sticking out of the top. it was busy, noisy, the heady smells of alcohol and grilling food lingering around - a good place for a secret meeting. or - not terribly secret. they were just following up a tip, a date and a time, a place. something left specifically for her in a dressing room yet, whomever it was seemed to be a no-show. perhaps they were waiting for them to leave, to slip a knife in the belly and rip off the pearls around their neck. opal had come without a bodyguard. it's when someone sits near her she says; "this better be good, i turned down a showing of les parapluies de cherbourg for this,"
