[GABRIEL]

[align=center][div style="width: 500px; text-align: justify; font-size: 9.4pt; line-height: 1.4;"]Myliu Gabriel remembered well. He remembered most -if not all- of the young faces under his wings, and when Myliu had disappeared, he had hoped they'd found...something. A better life elsewhere, maybe, and lately, the faces that had left a while ago seemed like they were probably in a better position, wherever they were, considering recent events. Gabriel couldn't find it in himself to care anymore, though. He hadn't eaten in a while, merely went back and forth between the graves, until his shape was as great a part of them as Laz and Moon were. The only difference was he still breathed, more or less. Beyond that, he was just their ghost, haunting them both, and a reunion was far, far from his mind. He was convinced that all the people he had known were either dead or gone- almost the same thing, really. Either way, Gabriel was alone to wither as he saw fit, leaving a trail of molted feathers in his wake like a breadcrumb path of mindless mourning. He wouldn't pretend he wasn't pathetic.

Gabriel was on another circuit between them when he heard Agathe's voice. He slowed, hollow stare shifting in her direction, though it was the figure she spoke to that had him stopping entirely. He couldn't be certain, not when it was entirely likely for Gabriel to simply project memories onto strangers' faces, but he started approaching before he could convince himself to move on. This couldn't be Myliu, could it? The small, scraggy kid Gabe nearly drowned for when dragging them out of the lake? And then Myliu had covered both their asses.

"Myliu?" His voice wasn't the most pleasant of sounds, hoarse as it was.
