Uriel's question startled Michael. This was getting a bit further than he had thought. At first they had been talking about how Raphael was treading a thin line, and now... Now Uriel was actually suggesting Raphael was about to Fall?
"Why do you even ask that?" he asked, well aware of how pained his voice was. "It's not going to happen. It's not. I won't allow it to happen."
He fell silent under Uriel's sharp gaze, lowering his eyes. Finally, he spoke again, this time with a more level voice. "I suppose it would hurt," he said quietly. "But -- but I think I would still love him. I have loved him for over two thousand years, Uriel. I am not about to give him up just because he's not an angel anymore."
He now raised his eyes back to the other angel, facing the gaze of the deep blue eyes squarely. "To me, it's not important how I would feel, or how I would react. My feelings are not about to change. What is more important is how others would ract, I think. Gabriel, for example... or you." He eyed the darkhaired angel challengingly.
