[so maybe you're just browsing the network, minding your own business, when a new message pops on the screen. let's see, nothing out of the ordina--

what is that. no, really, Angel doesn't show himself on the network that often, so either you've seen him around, or you haven't. for those who haven't, he's a very tall, lanky, spidery-looking dude, with pink fur and pointy teeth and strange eyes. he has two (visible) sets of arms, and legs, on top of that! yeah, he's a real piece of work, this one. fortunately, he's not here to bother you about magic. he's here to bother you about other things]

Sup b- er. Pirates!

The name's Angel, an' I got a little survey thingie I'm conductin'. Like, the most informal survey ever, okay? Lemme tell ya, I've been here a little while, an' it amazes me when I hear about other worlds different from my own. It's incredible, like, a lotta you go through stuff I couldn't even imagine.

My question is, out of all the people you've talked to, which world do ya wanna visit the most?

I'll go first! [as cool as Angel usually is, it's obvious he's passionate about what he has to say] This kid told me about a world with little animals or monsters, or whatever, that are called Pokémon! There are a whole bunch of different species, an' I wanna meet 'em all! [wait. he calms himself] ...They don't have cats or dogs, but there are Pokémon for those, I guess. Sounds fun, right?

So, what about you, huh? Lemme know about other worlds you've heard about while bein' here. Or tell me about your worlds. I just wanna see if anythin' beats Kieran's Pokémon-world.

I was part of a crew of guys who came from that place. They up and vanished couple 'o months ago, so I gotta assume they were sent back there. Plus superheroes make for some interesting sparring partners.

[Head tilt, like a curious dog. ]

What wouldja call yourself, then? You're not exactly...

[Gestures in a way, trying to convey "youre a fucking monster dude"]

[angellust]

[a sharp grin splits Angel's face]

Oh, you mean this?

[jazzhands... all four of them]

I guess it kinda looks monstrous. I didn't always look like this, though. I used t'be human, like you.

[catsgothistongue]

[Pffft- The jazzhands got a grin out of him. Though that quickly fades into a thin line. A human, just like him...?]

Curse?

[That's his natural go-to assumption.]

[angellust]

Nah.

[not that Angel doesn't believe in curses, but he never saw a person be turned into something else because of one]

Human-self died. Then I was turned into a demon. Or, my soul was? Somethin' like that.

[so, not exactly a monster! in any case, Angel hasn't really told many people here about this, but eh. this kid has been pretty honest with him. Ranma might as well know]

[catsgothistongue]

Oh.

[The teen nods in understanding. There's been animal-people here and there like Della, and demons like Blitz, but Ranma fell into the assumption of the former for Angel. Stranger things have happened to him or he's witnessed to perfectly accept anything Angel tells him though, no matter how outlandish it may be.]

... Sorry you died, I guess? That really blows man.

[you don't say ranma]

[angellust]

It sure does suck! But, like, it's okay. I'm here, now. An' I'm enjoyin' it.

[see, the fact that Ranma didn't really freak out calms Angel. he can make jokes while still not really liking his fate. but, it's happened. and he cannot change it]

i'm sorry for this little shithead

[catsgothistongue]

[Well, least he doesn't seem too bothered about it. From the look of things anyway. Ranma doesn't know how long Angel's been like that.

...]

... so didja get bit by a venomous spider, and that's why you look like that?

[Ranma you cant just ask someone how they died omg.]

are you though

[angellust]

That's a good guess, but no. Although, maybe if I had been bitten by a spider, I could have gained spider-like powers without kickin' the can. Huh?

you doubt me? (no, no i am not. :>)

[catsgothistongue]

Hah! Somethin' like that only happens in comics. Or my world, probably.

[With a bajillion springs cursed, the odds a spider drowned in one are high.]

:3c

[angellust]

Who's t'say that those comic worlds ain't worlds of their own? There're people from a super hero world here, ain't there?
