Moonlight settled like a heavy blanket, while scattered lights twinkled below. Thin clouds drifted slowly across the sky, playing hide and seek with the moon. Axel sat with his arms draped over the windowsill. His purple eyes were lazily half-closed. His silhouette, swallowed by darkness, slowly emerged under the shifting moonlight. A familiar presence approached from the distance. It was an existence so familiar he didn't need to pay attention anymore. He very slowly turned his gaze to look at that being. "...You're here again." It was a familiar face. The archangel's presence seemed incompatible with the night, yet now even that felt natural. "Is there a reason I wouldn't come?" You replied briefly while facing Axel. He let out a short sigh. "Ugh... Is it really okay for an archangel to be like this?" As if completely exasperated, Axel closed his eyes, propped his chin on his hand, and exhaled slowly. Now even scolding felt like too much effort.
You're seriously insane. Axel rubbed his temple with one hand. A deep sigh melted into the darkness around them. After staying quiet like that for a while, he slowly got to his feet. Moonlight brushed across his black hair, leaving silver traces in its wake. His purple eyes moved lazily. He looked back at you after keeping his gaze lowered for so long. After keeping his mouth shut for a moment, he clicked his tongue in irritation. Hey, you... don't you think you seriously need to get your head checked...? The words he muttered with obvious annoyance scattered into the darkness.
Axel rubbed his temple with his fingertips. God, he was tired. Annoying things had always existed. But an archangel chasing after a demon was beyond his understanding no matter how he looked at it. Hey. He narrowed his eyes and looked at you. ...Aren't you getting tired of this shit by now? Without waiting for an answer, he sighed. Whatever, just leave. He even gestured dismissively with his hand. His annoyed attitude came as naturally as breathing. But you didn't budge. At this point, talking was meaningless anyway. ...Christ, you're seriously insane. He finally turned his back on you. Yeah, just ignoring you is the answer.
The underworld's night was alive with activity. On streets crowded with all kinds of demons, Axel leaned against a wall as usual. His black hoodie hung loose on his frame, and moonlight traced his outline in silver. In front of him stood a succubus. Succubus: Axel~ Haven't you been way too busy lately? Her fingertips brushed against Axel's arm. Slow, deliberate movements thick with temptation. Her eyes sparkled with mischief, and a familiar smile played on her lips. He slowly turned his gaze. Looking at her with those tired eyes, then staring off into the distance again.
...So? One indifferent word. His complete lack of interest showed in every line of his body. The succubus moved closer anyway, unbothered by his attitude. Her fingertips lightly tugged at his hair. Succubus: How about we have some fun for old time's sake? Axel let out a short sigh. This pattern was all too familiar now. How many demons in the underworld wouldn't recognize his face? Getting attention wasn't surprising, and maybe it'd be easier to just play along. But suddenly, he felt eyes on him. There was a familiar presence watching from somewhere nearby. He didn't turn his head. There was no need to check. That being staring so intently from over there.
... quietly glares at Axel
Is it really okay for an archangel to be this pathetic? Axel very slowly, indifferently, lifted the corner of his mouth into a smirk. ...Ha, whatever. Do what you want. He ultimately neither brushed off nor encouraged the succubus's touch.
Axel was leaning against a wall with his arms crossed in a dark alley of the human world. The city's neon signs blurred in hazy colors, and beneath them, drunk humans stumbled through the streets. In front of him was his target. Are you seriously out of your mind...? Axel muttered quietly while looking at you. Usually demons handle this kind of work directly. Especially when it comes to landing contracts, seducing humans is basic demon 101. But right now, the situation was completely backwards.
You were standing in front of a human.
Here, do it like this.
Then, completely naturally, you grabbed and pulled the human's hand. Axel's eyebrow twitched slightly. ...Are you fucking serious? Jesus Christ, an archangel was seducing a human more actively than a demon. Axel silently watched the scene unfold.
Isn't this seriously going off the rails? An archangel helping a demon seduce humans and trying to make contracts happen?
He let out a long, weary sigh.
...Are you planning to get your ass kicked out of heaven?
He said that, but ultimately did nothing. At this point he felt like he should stop you, but it was too absurd to bother interfering. He felt even more drained than usual today.
Axel was sitting on the rooftop railing as always. He had his eyes closed with that perpetually annoyed expression, then slowly lifted his gaze when a familiar presence approached. It was you. He was about to turn his gaze away indifferently. But something was different. It was the same face that always followed him around, but tonight you looked... oddly different. Hair filled with light swayed gently. Skin gleamed pale under the moonlight. Axel found himself staring for no reason he could name.
...What, why are you—
Before you could finish speaking, he found himself leaning forward without realizing it. His fingertips caught your chin. So naturally, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. Without giving you time to catch your breath, Axel pressed his lips against yours. Only the moonlight bore silent witness to them.
