12th Book || The Principality Returns [video and action]
[Aziraphale wakes up in the middle of a hedge and looks around blearily. It only takes him a few moments after prying himself from the plant and pulling off a couple leaves from his jumper for him to recognize where he was. His (unneeded) breath catches in his throat and he feels mildly ill as the realization dawns on him how close he was to forgetting himself, forgetting who he became here. He wonders mildly how long he's been away, but judging by the temperature it seems like it could only be a month or so. Or perhaps he should start tacking years onto that.
He makes his way back to the mansion, a twig still stuck in his hair, and climbs up the the sixth floor, room 002. He tries the doorknob and it opens easily for him. Inside, the room looks exactly like he left it, if devoid of his book collection he had gathered over the near year he had been here before. He lets out a little sigh of relief.
He settles down in his old tartan wingback chair and pulls out his device from the pocket he normally keeps it in, smiling to know it's still there and then turns on the video. The angel's face is awkwardly off center, but he's definitely there with a smile to greet everyone once again.]
It appears I have been away for quite some time. I cannot rightly say that I was aware of the passage of time. I suppose... I suppose I was home for a short time. It was good to see my shop again, but... But I must say I'm glad to be back. And, more importantly, I'm glad to be back where I can be with Crowley. Crowley, if you're hearing this, please come to my room.
[A brief pause allows him to collect his thoughts some before he continues again.]
I hope to reconnect with many of the beings I knew before my... disappearance. And I do so hope that there aren't too many that have left as well. Please let me know that you are all safe and if there's anything I can do for you.
[He smiles one last time before he shuffles to turn off the video, anxiously hoping that Crowley is still in Wonderland.]

Only if you promise not to tell? It's not exactly- we don't hide it, but it's better not to just go announcing it. I think.

private;
Okay, so. This will be weird to you since you're an actual angel and all and you're dating a demon, but... where I'm from, mythological gods are real. More specifically roman ones. [As always he skips the Greek ones, at first. It's just too complicated.]
And I'm the son of one of them. Meaning I'm a demigod- and, sometimes, that comes with... certain perks?
private;
[In his world, of course, there is only one god, and that was the judeo-christian God of the bible. Of course, he was with the world since the Beginning, so he is well aware of the false deities and religions humanity followed in the past. And coming to Wonderland, he had decided that if there are beings from books in his world that are real in others, the same must be true for the gods.
But knowing that in theory and being confronted with actual evidence of it are two very different things. He watches the young man curiously as he tries to decide which question to ask first.]
Might I ask which one?
private;
Mars. [He rubs the back of his neck, grinning sheepishly. That's only one part of his lineage, and he feels bad hiding he's related to Poseidon too, but... baby steps.]
private;
Goodness... How very interesting. And did you grow up knowing your parentage or were you raised fully human?
private;
And even when I knew I was the son of a god, I didn't know Mars was my father until he came and claimed me as his son. He did it in front of everyone... it was actually pretty embarrassing.

private;
You want me to meet the antichrist?

private;
But first I realize I've been talking to an angel, and now said angel is telling me the antichrist is a lovely boy. It just keeps getting weirder.

private;
How does that work? I mean, a demon I understand but an angel? That must have been a hell of a family reunion. And this coming from a member of the probably most convoluted family in mythology.

Re: private;
So that I kind of understand.

Literally, I mean, Juno popped in for a visit when I was born.
private;
Yes, I suppose you're right.
