Thine EXO-Tale


(to be placed between The Abstractions 2 and 3)

~ at the church barbecue ~


Tzadkiel - "Because the meek up and inherited the Earth !  You'll need more kin, to stave that off."

Mary (XO) - "That's literally insane.  How about ... (looks to Michael like she's talking to a dog) just look at those eyes ... "

Sachiel - "Jesus do I have to ?  They're like two feral hogs fighting over a nose. Because it's what the parts are for ?"

Michael - "Weak.  And what does that even mean ?  I like makin' babies."

~ They look to the baby's room with the sound of howling wolves and thundering storm.  A crow ...

Raphael - "Yeah, I'm a poet so when I'm not doing it, I want to be inspiring it.  It's pretty much what I'm for."

Gabrielle - Getting up, "Well I'm for more beers and then after that, I'm off to find some fucker to fuck, for fuck's sake."

Anael - "It's about the beauty in moments.  Matching moments with sensations, creating a memory.  Etching it in stone."

...

Samael - "Huh.  But if you do it right, it's also kinda like job security."

Mary (FMK) - "Pass.  Aren't you single ?"

Samael - "Not really."

Geneva - "He's got a girl out by the docks.  Very secure.  For me ... it was about the bond it formed.  Something special that was only for ... someone."

Alley - "No idea.  I'm going with ... addiction.  It is very addictive."

Parasol - "It's when the souls share electricity, what happens with the body is just a byproduct in time.  Which yes, is very addictive.  Lots of drugs are used to supplant the body's place in time, for somewhere else.  Somewhere better."

Clyde - "What a lovely sentiment.  I choose Bonnie."

Bonnie - Smiles back, "I choose Clyde ... and you don't get to pass."

Mary (FMK) - "Dammit !  Ummm ... I honestly think the reason is because it's reasonless.  Letting go of reason.  It's a trick fucking question if you ask me."

Nun - "Tricky little answer too.  To do as our Lord commands, to be fruitful.  But you know me ... just another lady in waiting from His Son's heavenly harem."

Teacher - "That is so weird.  Pheromones.  Can't help ourselves, nature rules us all."

Nun - "Same thing."

Teacher - "But hang on doesn't that mean you're specifically defying God's command ?"

Nun - "May as well ask one of His Son's many wives what it means to eat the body of our Savior, and then drink His blood.  Symbolically of course."  She drinks.

Kid from the back - "Vampire cult.  And you know as a species the fact we think up those kinds of things and all the taboos placed all around it ... kind of is the reason."  Sees the teacher staring in terror, "I think.  ...  Not that I know, but I have been thinking about it."

Still staring ...

Isabelle - "Synchronous.  I used to consider it just a means of control until I actually found love."  Satch smiles back.

Warden - "I hear that.  When I met my wife ... it was like everything that's always changing too damn fast in this truly fucked up world ... it all changes around her.  She's always at the center of it all, my only reason ... for anything."

The patient - ... "Yeah.  'Biological function'.  It's like pissing.  You find somewhere to do it and then you move on.  Who wants to hang about the puddle after ?"

The beast - "All of the above.  But the truth is, the real reason behind it all ... maybe God just likes watching porn."

...

They all look at him ... he looks back.  "Heh."  He drinks.

Twenty One Reasons to Fuck

~ An EXO-Tale ~




(the song is a twenty second reason, while this tale throws off the established enumeration creating a twenty second episode)
