    Summary

    “Same blood,” The Angel of Judgment's tone is curt, losing patience with Gabriel’s arguing.

    Gabriel hesitates, “Er, yes, the machine does possess my blood, but that does not–”

    “Same body.”

    Gabriel splutters, “We do NOT–”

    Abruptly, Judgment summons a vision. Gabriel stares at his own corpse in stunned silence. Where they had fallen in battle, they truly look as if they had crawled into each other’s skin. Angel and machine, utterly entwined. It is impossible to distinguish where one of them ends and the other begins.

    “Ah…” Gabriel struggles to find the words to argue. “Well… That’s– um.”

    *

    Gabriel and V1 fight to the death and accidentally merge their souls. And then things get worse.

    Summary

    The secret is out: The Archangel Gabriel yet lives. Heaven tries to bring its wayward son home.
    ⊰⊱⊰⊱⊰⊱⊰⊱
    Beams of white light streamed through the sole window of the chapel. Gabriel stretched, letting it reflect through his wings for a moment, before he went to the door. As he opened it, he realized someone was standing beside it.
    The Machine, shining blue in the early morning light, flicked a coin between its fingers.
    Gabriel shrieked, the noise like glass shattering.

    Summary

    Gabriel let out an ugly bark of laughter and abruptly looked away, his hand rubbing against the front of his helm.

    “Machine,” he said in wry, twisted amusement, “you are far more likely to grow a soul. When a day comes that an object such as yourself possesses such a thing, will be the day an angel can live without Father’s light.”

    V1 knew a challenge when it heard one. It also knew it excelled at winning them.

    or;

    In Gabriel's final hours, he and V1 make a bet.

    Summary

    "You're a space wizard, Murderbot. You'll hate it. It'll be great." - The Force, probably

    If Murderbot ever proves the Force is sentient, it will plot to murder the shit out of the Force.

    So maybe I should’ve noticed I had bullshit magic powers sooner, but in my defense I didn’t think magic was real. Most sane people would insist magic isn’t real.

    Wait, whoops, the ghosts would claim it’s not magic. It’s “the Force” (in case you’re wondering, yes, you can hear the capitalization), and I’m a “Force-sensitive” which means I’m able to manipulate the mysterious, supernatural (but definitely not magical) force that a bunch of old dead monks decided to name the Force. (Not that I’m making fun of their naming sense. It’s apt even if it must’ve gotten confusing sometimes.)

    Summary

    Things… change.

    Ghost supposes that many would probably say that they get better. They do get better, don’t they? Yes, they do. Things change, and they are better. The Infection is gone, and Hollow is safe, and Hornet is happy, and so Ghost is fine. Perhaps they are selfish, and they mourn a dying world that they can never return to, and they are more alone than ever before, but they’ll get over it.

    …And it’s not as if anyone will notice if they don’t.

    Ghost goes back in time, kills the Radiance, and sets everything right. They tell no one, and do it on their own. It is only after their family is happy, and the kingdom is safe, and the Abyss is soothed to sleep, that they realize just how lonely it is as the last remaining piece of a future never to be.
