Why this must be read:
A very unusual SeSa story in which two of our boys are angels. It works. It's told in an adorably matter-of-fact style, there's a perfect Joey-discovers-Lance-is-gay scene, and the ending brings tears to my eyes every time I read it.
The belowgoing process was interesting. It was impeccably well-designed, for one; there was no "holy shit, I'm an angel" moment, but none of that annoying storybook precociousness in childhood, either. You grew up normally enough, but there was a constant background knowledge of what you were. It was kind of like having your mind start to clear after being under anesthesia for a few hours. Or years… or millennia, in a way. You understood as you needed to, but it was less like discovering and more like remembering. In many ways, the true mind and belowmind weren't even the same thing. It was about halfway in between you as a human, and you inhabiting a human. Hell, at least the boss only had to do it the once.
