✞5 Days since my Last Confession✞

[]Psalms 34:11-14

Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
[]

[☨]Morning glory is an understatement to what the small screen unveils. The dawn is clouded, yet the church shines brightly. Candles are carefully lit about the back alter giving the atmosphere a warm golden glow. Even the Archbishop who leans into the podium seems to have a halo of pleasantness about him, the likes, to those that knew him, had truly never seen.

Meticulously propping his priest's collar and fixing his embroidered red and gold stole over his shoulders he perked a slender blond brow at the screen as if he had not noticed it there before. He addresses the little communicator with a viperous smile and a heavenly light in his viridian eyes, a rather tranquil hum on the end of his clear Italian-born accent.[☨]

Aha! Buon giorno. Good morning, or as we say in the Holy See, salvē! Così e cosi, it is a grand morning indeed, for you see the Lord's house has finally been refurbished to it's former glory, if not better I'd say.

To commemorate this and strengthen faith and morale within this wary parched city, Evening Mass will be held on a weekly basis from this evening onward.

I Archbishop Enrico Maxwell will conduct the homily while Father Alexander Anderson will hold the reading. I do hope this catches the attention of whatever lost Catholics are out there, I assure you, you will find God's grace beneath this pristine steeple.

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Deus vos benedicat.

[☨]Maxwell gives the screen a cordial bow before striding over to shut the commlink off.[☨]


[✝]Addressed to Abel Nightroad[✝]

I would like you to know that despite your... condition, I hold no ill will to you. You aided me in a scandalous time of need and my former thanks has not gone unchanged.

[✝]Addressed to Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing[✝]

I believe a meeting between our two factions is in order, may I be so bold as to address you personally at your current homestead?

[✝]Addressed to Dr. Eirin Yagokoro[✝]

Now if only I felt this good after the visits with my doctors at home. You have my greatest regards, Miss Yagokoro!

[✝]P.S.[✝]

Would any of you fine heathens patrons know where I could find something.. something, pickled. Pickled cucumbers, pickled olives, or giardiniera perhaps? Sì? No? Sì?


((OOC: If you haven't noticed Enrico's unseemly FRIENDLINESS, it's all to blame on Dr. Eirin and whatever horrible experimental drug she pumped into the stiff man to make him feel high as a kite. A euphoric state, that is. And apparently with a side-effect for a desire for things dowsed in vinegar. Yum. Maxwell will be strangely agreeable in this state, I look forward to exploiting his brief.. openness before it wears off and his world comes crashing down. I'm heading to bed though but will be back to tag in the actual evening! ♥))

Are you hard of hearing so soon, Anderson? We're having Mass. I insist upon it!

Ah hear jist fin'... Ah am jist a wee... surprised at yer recovery.

The physicians here certainly must be qualified to suit the quality of life here, I'm not surprised. Why they'd have to be if anyone hoped to go a day without suffering tetanus or worse.

Well that's.... very kind of you, Archbishop.

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
I'd rather there not be tension between I and my fellow Catholics. We are so few and far between as it is in this sinful den.

[identity profile] 13sugars.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
Well I guess that's true. [He sort of thought for sure you hated him forever but okay this is pretty nice]

Thank you very much!

Prego, Father Nightroad.

Will you be joining us for Mass this evening?

[identity profile] 13sugars.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll certainly do my best to attend.

[voice: Latin]

[identity profile] just-a-monk.livejournal.com 2009-10-03 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
From the way you speak your words, you appear to be a holy crusader.

Am I correct?

[voice: Latin | Locked]

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
You have keen judgment there, sir.

Yes, in fact I am the Leader of the current 9th Crusade. A true shame that I've been torn from the Lord's Holy war to face a new battlefield such as this city.

[Sits silently for a moment or two. In all realities, this crusader may have been one of his targets of assassination.]

I am of the crusades too.

I am a holy scholar.

[voice: Latin | Locked]

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-06 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Oh really? Now that is something that grabs the more vicious side of his attention.]

And here I thought I and my one Paladin were the only ones to be transcended here.

Tell me brave Holy Scholar, just which Crusade were you fighting?

Re: [voice: Latin | Locked]

[identity profile] just-a-monk.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
I was taken to the holy lands durring the third crusades.

Even though I was a scholar, and we believed we had to bring the word of god in a more pasifistic manner.

[Altair was obviously lieing; considering the fact that he was one of the many that thought against the crusades]

[voice: Latin | Locked]

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-07 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
Aha the Kings' Crusade.. To think they thought a mere treaty would placate the Lord.

Yet is that not the desire of all True Christians? His Holiness only wanted the Holy Land that originally belonged to His people after all. However how can one ever hope to reason with heathens who base their misplaced beliefs on doctrines of violence?

[Maxwell, being unaware of Altair's intentions, saw him as a possible ally, yet kept a well guarded mind to all strangers. After all, the Third Crusader's failed miserably and squabbled amongst themselves for the spoils of war.]

Re: [voice: Latin | Locked]

[identity profile] just-a-monk.livejournal.com 2009-10-08 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Once more, there was a small moment of silence. He was exactly the type Altair would assassinate. He had to stand him though, for now.]

Yes...

Even if we ourselves brought violence, and only caused more blood shed then had already been spilled.

...what's wrong with you, Maxwell?

[Naturally the Hellsing is suspicious. The Catholic is...cordial, and that alone is cause for hesitance.]

[/Locked\]

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
Nothing. Nothing at all is wrong. In fact I cannot begin to explain how right this all feels.

Will you accept a meeting? I have a proposal I'd like to make.

[/Locked\]

[identity profile] hellsingmaster.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Integra doesn't answer for a long moment.]

God, I know I'm going to regret this...
Very well, Maxwell, report to my office apartment. And leave your Catholics behind.

[/Locked\]

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:28 am (UTC)(link)
I had planned to come alone all along. After all, I merely wish to speak with you.

[Hand to God and all.]

I will be with you shortly then, Sir Hellsing. Ciào!

[And he is off to her residence, of course, not without a brief stop at the Highschool for something, something, appropriate for the occasion.]

[Integra Hellsing waits calmly at her desk, mug of quite inferior tea at her elbow, but beggars cannot be choosers, especially in this wretched place.

She merely stares out of the window, waiting.]

[identity profile] nomnomguts.livejournal.com 2009-10-03 08:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Catholics? Ah, I don't believe I've ever heard the term before. I suppose it's something religious then~? [Riful's really only encountered Christians so far in terms of foreign religions~]

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh... what a shame that is.

Yes, Catholicism is the true orthodox religion to worship our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

[identity profile] nomnomguts.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Is that so~?

Mm, that sounds very interesting! [Aka Riful has NO IDEA what you're talking about.]

Umm... no, but I got some vinegar to pickle something in!

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
Do you? Do you really?

That would do just fine, actually! Whom may I ask is speaking?

[personal profile] singsingbluesilver 2009-10-06 05:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yup!

I'm Ryuichi Sakuma from Japan. Are you from around Rome?

voice

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-06 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
The Holy See to be exact, yes.

Aha, one of my best subordinates is from Japan, though I'm sorry to say I haven't had the pleasure to visit such a pagan country.

Where might I find you Mr. Sakuma?

Wow, that's pretty cool, I went there once and sang for the Pope. He was a pretty nice guy.

About! I was at Shuichi's place but his boyfriend is having hysterics about his book so I went for a walk and that's where I am. Although I think I am gonna be at the Cafeteria for a bit 'cause I'm getting hungry.

voice

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-06 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
Did you now? Well that certainly is commendable, I take it was Pope John Paul II?

His boyfriend, what?

Aha, perhaps I could meet you there then? The cafeteria that is.

I could find something to at least place in the vinegar... such a .. strange craving this is, I'm more inclined to freshness than preservatives.
singsingbluesilver: (i really can be nice)

voice

[personal profile] singsingbluesilver 2009-10-06 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
Yup!

Okay, I'll be there. I'm gonna entertain some of the kids with a stuffed toy, so look for the guy with a pink rabbit.

voice

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-06 07:30 am (UTC)(link)
Aha, how strange I must have missed the concert while on a mission for His Holiness. Do let me know if you plan an encore here?

I will be there shortly then, ciào!

[personal profile] singsingbluesilver 2009-10-06 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, the rest of the band's not here, but I could still sing a few pieces whenever.

See you soon!

[identity profile] x-no-limits-x.livejournal.com 2009-10-03 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Damn.

How many of you Christians are there?

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
I've yet to count them actually.

[identity profile] cozmic-travel.livejournal.com 2009-10-04 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
Another successful procedure.

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 08:08 am (UTC)(link)
This is.. the usual for you, isn't it?

I really cannot even begin to express how light I feel right now.

[identity profile] cozmic-travel.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 10:14 am (UTC)(link)
It's a sign of good health!

[identity profile] 13th-crusader.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 10:28 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! Yes, yes.

Just as I thought! There are no, ah, follow-ups I'll be needing to make, will there be?

[identity profile] cozmic-travel.livejournal.com 2009-10-05 07:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I'd hardly turn you away if you felt you needed them.
