Raphael is drawn to the Safe House
Time: April 27, around two AM
Place: on the front lawn of the Manor
Status: PUBLIC (anyone up at 2AM who wants to find him catching his discorporation out there)
Summary: A tired and weary Archangel discovers the Manor
Thunder cracked above him, splitting the night in two as the sky wept its cold tears on a dark world. His wings dragged pathetically behind him in jagged streams, the firey feathers jutted in irregular directions. The steady rain had long since washed away the blood smudged on his skin and face, but it still stained his torn clothes in cruel hash marks. His braid was partially undone, the wind catching the crimson strands and whipping it across his face like blood sliced across pale skin; a cruel reminder of what he had escaped from.
Raphael closed his arms around the bunny held protectively against his chest, its dark grey fur touched with blood that was not its own. The Archangel had taken off his labcoat and wrapped it around the miserable creature in an attempt to keep it warm, but the rain had soaked through the once-white fabric rather quickly. By the time Archangel and bunny reached Lower Tadfield it was about two in the morning and both were soaked all the way through, cold and shivering. Still, Raphael kept on, feeling drawn by an unknown force that seemed to tug at his weakened aura.
That force seemed to grow in intensity the further into town he moved. The moment he stepped down a pathway that lead to the front of a large beautifully-designed building it was as if he had stepped through an invisible wall... The rain still fell steadily but he had this strong surge of safe safe safe thrumming through his wrangled body. The relief was so overwhelming it dropped him to his knees, the wet ground shifting beneath his weight. You're safe... You're safe now...
He let out a sigh he hadn't realized he had been holding, curling heavy wet wings around him. The manor looked very elegant, perhaps a resort for the financially well-off. He wondered if he could stay here for awhile, or perhaps maybe just for the night so he could rest his aching body after trudging in the rain for eight hours.
If nothing else, maybe someone would be willing to take the poor bunny from him, perhaps give it a nice meal and a dry blanket.
He closed his eyes, tightening his hold as he surpressed another bout of shivering, and just enjoyed the feeling of being truly safe for the first time since he left Heaven.

Barefoot, he padded downstairs. In the lobby, he almost slipped in a puddle of water and somethign sticky. HE squinted down at the red smear. Blood?
Blood?!
"Joe?" he called as he quickly walked over to the bar's entrance. "Joseph! Are you--? Oh!"
He had pushed open the door and took in the scene before him. Joe was standing behind the bar, looking a little tired but otherwise fine. On a chair across from him on the other side of the counter, there was a ... an angel or a demon, he assumed, from the wings. Probably the latter, since the wings weren't white. It was sodden and bloody, obviously the source of the blood traces in the lobby. At his feet, a rabbit was munching greens from a shallow dish.
"What'd ya do ta him? Attack him with a knaife?" he asked Joe, surprise and tiredness making his Scottish accent thicker than usual.
It's getting skinny again, new reply thread? :3
He understood that humans didn't get that an injured angel's weakened aura left them highly vulnerable. He also realized he had just been completely rude to the someone who came to help him. "H-hello," he said, managing a weak smile. "I'm Raphael."
