By Grant Eagar

Michael looked up and removed his spectacles. He fixed her with a stern look. “Ariel, are you cognizant of what you’ve done? I regret to inform you there will be severe consequences. Please arise.” She rose and he removed the bejeweled tiara from her golden hair. “You've once again sullied the angelic order, bringing shame to all of us. It’s not like this was the first time you caused us dishonor. There was the time you were supposed to protect the duke and you ended up providing the poison his wife used to kill him. Then there was the time you were assigned to help Senator Smith’s election and you ended up helping Senator Jones, a crook, instead highly displeasing the powers that be. These are just a few of your offenses, and is this not the sixth time you have fallen in love with the human you were supposed to be helping?”

She lowered her head and said, “Jones-Smith—six of one, half a dozen of the other. I couldn’t tell which one was the bigger crook. I am however, sorry about not protecting the duke. It’s just that his wife needed some poison to kill the rat; how was I to know she was referring to her husband? I thought I was being helpful. Again, my deepest apologies for the trouble I’ve caused. And regarding those I’ve fallen in love with; I’m naturally an affectionate person, so what can I say?”
