    Summary

    The Ferrymen are celebrating the birth of one of their own, and Gabriel has come to honor them, dressed in ceremonial white and gold. It's a peaceful night in Hell. . . until a cloaked V1 boards the ferry, and Gabriel recognizes the blue plating beneath stolen sleeves.

    In an attempt to remain peaceful, they both watch the celebration, until it's time for the Dancing. . and Gabriel couldn't help but take advantage of V1's clear lack of knowledge when it comes to Dancing... but things.. change

    Summary

    All it takes is a rough tug of the wire, and V1 immediately loses control of their trajectory. The Knuckleblaster rotates into primary position, but by the time it locks into place, Gabriel’s knee is slamming directly into their scarred stomach. Throwing all his weight upon their stunned form, they drop through the air like heavy stones and slam into the forest floor below.

    Everything crawls to a staggered stop. He’s knocked them cold, even if for but a moment. Blood oozes down his wrists and drizzle upon the dazed machine, pinned to the soft carpet of grass. He can hear their fans rattling in their frames like gasps for breath, and their optic has been taken offline.

    Pink and golden feathers flare in a display of dominance, diffusing rosy light through that shadowy glade.

    “Did you really think you could outrun me? In my own garden?”

    Summary

    The Council has a brilliant plan: Gabriel will marry the machine that defeated him twice. Bind V1 through holy matrimony, make it Heaven's obedient weapon, and obedient to their Supreme Angel. It's strategic, it's political, and it's absolutely foolproof.

    There's just one small problem.

    Gabriel proposed the plan himself. And V1 accepted immediately. . . how odd

    Summary

    Sometime during their unstoppable descent into the realm of the damned, it became apparent to V1 that they are merely a chess piece, moving at the hands of an unseen player; one that is swiftly closing in on the other for a resounding checkmate. At the very end of Hell, Gabriel loses his final match with the machine that unwittingly broke the shackles he had noticed far too late.

    Rather than putting an end to his existence, V1 instead takes the opportunity to shatter the board and stop the game.

    In the aftermath, both machine and archangel are left standing in the settling dust of the collapsed echelons of creative order. But a scorched earth isn't always the end. Something will eventually grow from the ashes of utter destruction, if given the chance.

    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.
