Description
Curiosity is not a sin, but we should excercise caution with our curiosity. - Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Angels are seen as the messengers of Heaven and the soldiers against the forces of Hell. Angels as one of the judges of Heaven are not impartial, and neither can they feel humanity's pains. But what happens when curiosity gets the best of an angel? In this story, Louis, a young angel, goes down to Earth to experience humanity in the most realistic of ways. Dumped to Earth faster than the time he took to make up his mind about his curiosity, he finds himself fascinated with the red-haired Megan; tall, smart and physically flawless, she is everybody's idea of perfection along with her brother, Matthew. But someone is against Louis's ideas of experiencing love, let alone humanity in itself: Emile, Louis's best friend. Green-eyed and wise due to experiences from a painful past, he accompanies Louis to Earth and together they live through all of Louis's experiences to satisfy his overbearing wonder about human life. However, with only six months to be here and an angelhood to take care of, will his time be enough? Or was it all simply a folly his mind convinced him to make? A sequel to the wartime story Painfully Green, this story explores love, curiosity, human imperfection and the impossibly ubiquitous rule of life on sacrifice and happiness. Immortality does not save anyone from regret, even when you're not supposed to feel anything at all. *cover art (c) senyoratomato
