#or on michael projecting his secret hopes for an epic love story centered around being trapped in hell with a cute human

[ckneal]

So, Michael wrote the bible stories to tell humanity what a great and terrifying guy his dad was. Or maybe just what a great guy, and the terrifying stuff sort of just. . .seeped in, because Michael had no idea that it’s not normal for your dad to drown creation because he doesn’t like what they’re doing. Just, you know. Dad stuff.

But I wonder then. What do we make of The Inferno, and Virgil? Did Michael write that too? A story about his one random little brother, who liked to hang out in Heaven’s armory (because he’d been assigned the job for all time), meeting a funny little human and holding his hand through Hell? Or did Virgil decide to play hooky one day? Did he read Michael’s stories and have a “I’m a WAY better writer, and I’ll prove it!” moment? Or was he secretly thinking of rebelling, and ran off to Earth one night, where he met a human who was down on his luck, and somehow the two of them wound up having a divine bro trip, wandering through Hell, and the guy just happened to be a writer, and nobody else in Heaven ever knew, but it was the single most magical experience of Virgil’s life, and in the Empty, his dreams are all Dante, Dante, Dante?
