yknow i was raised christian but im agnostic now and mainly associate god with death and dying now. in the few moments that i do actively seek out god its out of fear, because the environment i lived in embraced fearing god so fervently that i hold onto that one lifeline i have before death. i'd call out to that lifeline so it would wrap me up and keep me safe, knowing the presence of it was so overwhelming that it defied all odds.

i think for an angel like gabriel, whos god has abandoned him, the presence that he had grown accustomed to gone, after experiencing a fight with v1, definitely found something. he has been made to love an overwhelming presence, his beginning and end, for as long as he lives, and in the last 24 hours of his life, he finds it in a man made machine. do you think he found their fights to be like worship? does he find a bullet to be a confession, or a parry to be an answer to prayer? is a defeat like communion? or does the blood they spill provide a good enough replacement for the body of christ?
