The heavens were in an uproar. Herself and Himself not speaking, Peter had quit his job at the Pearly Gates, Satan had left for who knows where noone really knowing if he was serious about quitting. Death had said he quit. The Angel Chameul met outside with the Gods Dagda, Miach and Echne, the other Angels Aine, Dana and Anahita hovering nearby.
" So now what? Is this our chance to take over again. Or do we help a brother Himself in need until this crisis is over. Any suggestions?"
" I say we just love and support Himself and Herself, staffing where we can, and wait till they can work things out themselves. My concern is the souls that will be passing, do we really want to call back in Morrigan? I mean all that she is a Goddess, but she had a hard time giving up that power over war, life and death. We could ask her to limit herself to just death. Think she'd go for that?"
" hmmm Perhaps, but what about the Gates to Heaven? Who could we get to do that? Maybe the Angel Ongkanon, after all his job was to was basically to act as intermediary between Himself and Herself and humans. Its worth a try. I think"
"Any other ideas Elders, Angels? Come now, as minutes pass here, years pass there. I still don't know why Himself let thingsd get so out of control here. Why when we were more active things seemed much more calmer. Ah, for the old days huh"
And each of the Gods and Goddesses with the Angels took a moment to remember what it used to be like.
" Lets give Himself and Herself a little while, and come to them with our ideas, perhaps by then things will have settled a bit and we will know what we need to do, if anything."
All of them grasped hands and prayed, parting, knowing that something somewhere was going to have to happen.
Himself and Herself were having themselves a little sit down in their cloudy abode. Neither had begun to talk yet, but hands were clasped, and looks were being exchanged. Someone had to start this, and it seemed that the women, whether it be here or on Terra, always seemed to open up the conversation. Herself was just hoping that Himself was not going to be like Terra males and misconstrue everything she had to say.
" Himself, you know how much I love you, right?"
"Yes dear."
Oh this was going to be difficult.
" I didn't mean to hurt you. I just felt like since this was a meeting about all the things in Heaven that were bothering us, I would include my problems, the ones I seem to be having..."
"YES I KNOW, PROBLEMS YOU WERE HAVING WITH ME!!!! IN PUBLIC OF ALL PLACES!.."
" Calm down Himself, I said my problems. It wasnt a problem I was having strictly with you, it was alot of little things and I really needed to air some things out also. Please try to understand, you can be so judgemental at times, and when you are, things happen on my beloved Terra, winds blow, storms happen, thunder rolls. I only wanted to save "them" your temper."
"I DO NOT HAVE A TEMPER!"
Herself rolled her eyes thinking there goes tornados in a place there never have been any before. Poor humans. How to approach this delicately. Perhaps she need to speak to another person first to get it all straight in her head.
" Dear Himself I think I will go for a stroll and see if I can find a flower or two that might need my attention. Let's let some time go by and speak about this again."
" Herself, I dont feel the need to speak about any of it. Suit yourself." And turned his back on her.
Herself left the cloud in search of family.
