[So today, all of Vatheon will see Angelo in a completely different light. Instead of being overly fashionable or flashy (this includes jewelry he usually wears like his earrings), the SFC will show him in a very plain suit with glasses on (that he doesn't really need). He also seems...a bit different personality wise, but certain aspects.]

Hello Vatheon, I've made quite a few decisions today and I believe they're for the best. First and foremost, I've decided to be in better control of my gambling, alcoholic, and flirtatious behavior. I've been wrong to behave that way and I will be better about them in general.

Secondly, I'm looking into a second job since I'm cutting back on my hours at the host club if anyone ever visits there because of my first decision. Lastly, I'm thinking of giving up a lot of things I've been holding onto in my room, I'll either toss them or give them away. I don't need this overly excessive amount of stuff that's cluttering up my closet. If anyone wants anything, please contact me before I throw it away.

[And that's the last of the SFC message.]

[If you're out and about today, you'll see Angelo still in that brown suit all around Vatheon, he's kind of just going various places around town and kind of walking. He might be in the grocery store looking for food, in the library reading something, or in one of the shops looking at their more conservative suits/clothes. It's really up to you!]

[ooc: Angelo has been cursed with Temperance, have fun kids.]

[Huh. Kratos can't say he ever expected this, but he can tell just by looking at Angelo that he's sincere.]

I see. Good for you.

[Hi grumpypants, are you actually praising him for once?]

Come to praise me now that I've decided to change my ways?

Congratulate, if you must put a term to it. The life you were leading was an unhealthy one.

[He does mean literally here, but he knows that it can do quite a bit of emotional damage too. Kratos still has no love for Angelo, but he can be glad for him if he's turning a corner.]

Well I've learned my lesson and I'm going to be a better person from now, I promise that.

[He looks both serious and sincere about that at the same time.]

Feel free to ask if you require any assistance moving all that alcohol. I can lift a fair amount.

[This much of a turnaround is unexpected. Maybe Sheena had hit him even harder than he expected her to and knocked some sense into his brain. He'd have to thank her. Angelo might not have that much willpower tomorrow, though. Better get it all out of the house right now!]

Well my collection did get rather large, I may keep a few for special occasions though I'd rather get rid of the rest. There's too much cluttering my closet and bedroom.

[This is the curse making him think and talk like this, he's going to majorly regret this later when it hits him what exactly he's done.]

I'll be over shortly.

[Very shortly, in fact. It only takes him a few minutes to fly over and knock on the door. Kratos knows when to take quick action, and that time is certainly now.]

[Angelo promptly opens the door and lets Kratos in despite some doubts which are starting to storm in his mind. For one, because this is Kratos and he knows how protective of Lloyd he is. And two, this might be Kratos' idea of trying to change him completely.]

...Perhaps before we begin moving things, we should have a little talk.

[Change Angelo completely? Kratos is not the sort to have unrealistic hopes. He raises a brow at Angelo.]

Should we?

[He only nods at him.]

...Yes, I do believe we should.

[The seraph folds his arms and nods, indicating for Angelo to say his piece. Angelo might feel that they have something to talk about, but Kratos doesn't have anything in particular he wants to say.]

I have some doubts regarding this situation, I've been collecting these wine bottles for quite some time now. Getting rid of them all might be a bit much, even if I slightly feel it's necessary.

Is there any reason that you need so many? You're needing to build a special cabinet just to hold them all.

[It's as if Angelo is trying to open a bar, and Kratos can't say he's a fan.]

Hmm, well I suppose I could shrink my collection down to the cabinet. Then I'll do that.

[No Kratos, he's not doing that. He's stockpiling for special occasions.]

[Progress is progress, and Kratos is willing to take it. He does pause to look at Angelo with a hint of curiosity, though.]

What exactly sparked this sudden change?

Edited 2012-09-09 05:18 (UTC)

[Well it didn't hurt to answer Kratos since he was trying to help, but this was the same man who got on him about Lloyd. Well, maybe he was trying to help.]

I've been doing much thinking after what happened with Lloyd and then today, I woke up to the feeling I had to try becoming a better person after all I've done.

[Again, he doesn't sense any deceit in Angelo's words. Lloyd's ability to inspire change in people is truly astounding. Kratos lowers his head and smiles softly to himself. If it's Lloyd, maybe Angelo can change. Maybe Kratos can change, too.

Maybe even Mithos will be able to.

He doesn't respond again to Angelo verbally, heading over to the area where he keeps the wine and looking through it.]

Which ones are you wanting to keep?

[This honesty is only for today Kratos, so you'd best appreciate it. But even still, Angelo watches Kratos with hesitation and make sure he's actually trying to be nice.]

...I'll look through them. [He stands next to Kratos and begins examing the bottles himself.]

[One of the bottles catches the angel's eye. Ahh, this is the sort that Yuan likes, isn't it? He knew there were things from his world here in Vatheon, but it's always a bit odd to see. Kratos picks up the bottle of fine red wine and looks it over, vaguely amused.]

This cabinet isn't even half-full, the other one I own is completely full.

[He says that offhandedly to Kratos.]

They're from multiple worlds, aren't they? I thought you might only collect them from your own. This one here is from Aselia.

[He runs a hand over the label. Asgard, during one of Sylvarant's flourishing periods.]

I haven't noticed where they're from, I only collect them. [He tilts his head slightly.]>/small> Aselia? Is that where you're from?

[Kratos is not sure he understands why Angelo would collect things and not take the time to appreciate them... or even find out where they're from. That seems ridiculous.]

That's correct.

[Because he's not one to stop and appreciate the scenery or the things he's collecting in this situation.]

Lloyd is from there too and Zelos?

In a way. Lloyd is from Sylvarant, Zelos is from Tethe'alla. When those two worlds combine once more, it will be Aselia again.

[He puts the bottle back. This is a good vintage, Angelo will probably want to keep it.]
