Bombardment Of Thoughts
Amara braced herself for how Chuck would handle what was to come. Then, something else caught the common attention of the Darkness and God.
The Lesser Darkness was trying to understand this new sensation she felt upon seeing her four dysfunctional cousins in person, all the while trying to dismiss the fact that they did not ignore any of her five articles of jewellery while gazing at her. Moreover, there truly were fascinating things about these cousins, things which were only confirmed while they discussed with her uncle. If they were humans, Sefira thought, they would be beta males despite all their pretensions: the first never put himself above his reputation as his father's loyal son, the second displayed passive-aggressive behaviour and was highly emotional, the third just had to be the consummate problem solver among them, and the fourth tended to avoid confrontation as much as he could.
The nigh-omnipotent siblings exchanged, by telepathic means, encrypted thoughts about what caught their attention.
Brother, did… did… Sefira… just give your… four sons that particular… look?
The same look you yourself, Sis, gave Dean during every encounter with him?
Or… the same look giving away your… horrible-as-always taste in men?
Yep, that's the look. Despite the past times when I thought you were bossy, at least you were a beta character like the rest of us primordial beings.
Is my daughter the first… alpha character… on the level of primordial beings?
This won't affect us very much, Sis. Things would become very interesting for my four sons, however, should your daughter get her way with them.
Meanwhile, Sefira was bombarded with thoughts from numerous directions. She regretted saying that the conversations around all but the last of her uncle's apologies were none of her business. Her four cousins, however dysfunctional, remained beings of light, but she herself remained a being from the primordial basis of dark matter. Given her enforcement of Death's vision of a natural order, she was grateful that her mother had promised not to direct her to love humanity more than herself. Somehow, she thought of the possibility of loving celestial offspring of her own more than her mother, as human mothers did.
The Lesser Darkness tried to put all these simultaneous thoughts together, but little did she know that her thoughts were not shielded from either the Darkness or God.
