{Every time I take your lead, feels like a curse
Who: Inej + Various / Kol + Various
When: Month of January
Where: Cadens / Thorne + the Horizon
What: Various threads through the month
Warnings: Kol: a history of child abuse; violence, torture, murder, death; foul language; alcoholism; general hedonism; manipulation; heavy trust issues; paranoia. Any/all of these may come up at any given time within a thread with him, and most if not all of it will be referenced rather casually by Kol. Inej: stealing; murder; descriptions of touch aversion, anxiety, depression, PTSD; heavy trust issues, paranoia; mentions of past instances of prostitution, slavery, and sexual assault. Everything will be clearly marked if-when it comes up.

"Did you prefer it the other way? When you had the distance." she's just curious. Michael is such a...stern sort of- well, man? person? are they even the right words? She's not sure. But he's got a very no-nonsense sort of vibe, which she supposes might clash with plenty of other people, Angels and humans alike.
She considers it for a moment and hums softly. "I think I understand...?" but the way she says it lends to the idea that she could still be wrong, and is fine with it if that's the case. "Your job could never be so simple as that. I know as a whole, we tend to think of ourselves as the most important, but everything means... everything. Humans are only a spec inside the wider universe."
She tips her head to the side as she considers him for a long moment. "I can hardly fathom the burden of the pressure laid on your shoulders." There's only so much the human mind can even really conceptualize, and she knows it doesn't end there. There are so many things they still don't know the answers to. But someone like Michael would hold all of that in their hands and have to choose when it was best to wield it or share it. Fate of some era or other of the world in his hands.
