"It is enough," decides Rashad, letting out a breath he hadn't realized he was holding. The edges of his mouth twitch upward, and he is surprised to realize he is -- happy. He is not very happy, which makes it all the stranger and more alien to him, used as he is to experiencing only the most extreme forms of joy. It is...pleasant. For now. Feeling that it will end makes it so. "I think I might perhaps be able to heal now, given time."

It is easier now, too, to taste at Daniel, his senses carelessly prodding the outer reaches of the other being. This creature might almost be confused for an angel even with his senses intact, but there are sharp differences, something about him that does not ring true for any type of archon. Rashad has never seen a creature moving upward through the scale of being, only downward like himself, but if Daniel was truly human before now....

"You are something I have not seen before," he observes.
