The Price of Omniscience...
...is having to keep track of everything all at once. Bah. It's distracting, I tell you. It's a good thing I have assistants, though honestly, with all the hubub these days I may have to subcontract to some mortal minions for help with the bookkeeping.

Apparently, some creature is out there impersonating [info]thefirstgood as the antithesis of [info]thefirstevil and using lots of Seventh Heaven icons. We would like to warn all our friendly folk that not everyone is as it seems, and that -technically- being the first evil or first good still implies someone was there first.

Ie, moi.

That said, to the various immortal power forces in the universe running amok, We have this to add:

You break it, you buy it. Universes are damn expensive and labor intensive and all sales are final, so We'd better not be hearing any cosmic smashing sounds coming from this one, hear?

Play nice.

That said, today's ledger will be a little late. I'm positively swimming in paperwork, I tell you. Not to mention I still have a hangover from Jonathan's dubious drink mixing skills. Oy.

Confidential to [info]stephen_connor: We are looking out for you, kiddo, but in the name of all that is holy and good, please keep the Oedipal madness to a minimum. Thank you kindly.

Confidential to [info]red_witch: Am forwarding divine prophecy of interest to you, once We find suitable vessel for delivery. All magic mirrors are broken or on loan to Fairies and Fey Division, else would be there sooner. Working on it.

Semi-Confidential to [info]_ripper_: Love ya, sweetie. Pack extra sweaters for Nunavut, okay?

So, are you responsible for those useless Elders that Leo goes to for noninformation?

Actually, those guys are a subsection of the Non-Interference & Chaos Theory Department. It's kind of their job to be as vague as possible.

But technically, yes. The Buck Stoppeth Here.

Since I shouldn't do magic 'cause I might go all black-eyed and antisocial, I don't suppose you could do magic Higher Being hocus-pocus and, maybe, bring back our living room couch? *hopeful tone*

That'd save Xander a lot of trouble. In return, you can take the rest of the hallucinogenic curry; we were considering feeding it to [info]thefirstevil's Harbingers, but maybe you have a use for it. Jonathon could use it in drink mixes?

I fear that somehow a couch destined for recycling due to having one seam backwards-stitched has accidentally been Fed-Ex'd to the wrong address. Should it happen to appear on your doorstep, please do be considerate enough to give it a home lest it be thrown out.

As for curry, you might want to bottle that and save it for a rainy day. Never can tell when things like that might come in handy.

Cheers.

What I want to know is why anyone sleeps on the darn couch anyway. I wouldn't want to sleep under a window that got destroyed twice in one forty eight hour period...

Sunnydale Glass And Window repair must be making a fortune. I say you guys should look into it. Probably an subsidiary of the First Evil.

Who wants some avatars? Do The Powers want some avatars? 'Cause... I'm hardcore into the spirit of sharing, for which I think you have more than a little bit to do with...

Methinks Our Side has summat to do with all that "sharing"...

You know, I'm still waiting to here why you kicked me out of the higher plane.

Granted, I wasn't very happy there, but the whole not-knowing is very annoying.

I know it wasn't the Vegas Gambling incident. Don't try to tell me that it was.

What makes you think I kicked you out?

Let's put it this way: There are rules against giving lesser mortals information.

There are fewer rules about giving higher beings information.

If you knew someone was going to start breaking the rules and throwing around apocalypses that aren't on the schedule, but as of yet the rules were still intact, and you needed to get information from a higher being to a lower being...

What would _you_ do?

Certainly not leave you sitting in the cosmos bored out of your skull while the information my champions need rests merrily in your head. No, I, being me, did the sane thing: sent you where you were needed, to do what you had to do.

(Not Connor. You did not need to do him. Please, Me, make the pain stop...)
