Assistants Lounge -- Friday, February 10

With only one class on Friday, Bel opened up the Assistants Lounge and settled in for a relaxing day of reading up on Japanese weddings.

"Huh, I didn't realize." Isabel shook her head. "Sometimes I think I'm still trying to process that things like magic, demons and aliens are real. I'm doing better then the first night we talked but still, it's weird to hear that a classmate is going to oppose the Source of all Evil."

She looked off into the distance for minute, thinking. "But my issues aren't what's important here. It seems like you're going to have to make a choice. Hopefully you'll make the right one. And if you do, maybe there's a way to protect you."

"I already made the choice not to hurt Phoebe," Bel said. "I know I'm dead. It's a price I'm willing to pay. I've betrayed the Underworld, and the Source will destroy me."

"Maybe there's a way..." Isabel's voice trailed off.

"You can't just accept that. You have to want to fight. If there's a way to save her, save yourself, you have to find it." She snorted, "Of course it's not like I can do anything to help you. At least not that I know of. But if I could, I would." She finished a bit wistfully, "Everyone deserves a normal life if that's what they want."

"I'd fight if I thought there was a chance, but I've seen what happens to those who disobey the Source," Bel said. "No one gets away with it. No one. I disobeyed an order once when I was a child, and I nearly died for it. This time I won't have youth as an excuse."

"There's always chance. No matter how small," she said. "And if Phoebe is supposed to be so powerful, maybe she'll be able to protect you."

"She's not powerful enough yet," Bel said. "She can't help me, as much as she wants to. And I won't let her get herself killed." He looked at Isabel, cocking his head. "Why so encouraging? Most of Team Angel would be happy to see me die."

"I can understand that," Isabel said slowly. "And as for the rest, I don't know. Maybe it's because you seem like you can be a nice guy when you want to be."

"Blame Phoebe for that one," Bel said. "She made me remember what it was to be human again."

"I don't know that I'd say blame. Thank maybe?" she smiled.

"I didn't thank her at first, that's for sure," Bel admitted. "I didn't want to feel the things she made me feel. I was trying to find ways to get rid of my soul so I wouldn't feel it."

Isabel nodded, "I get that. Sometimes it's hard to accept something new. Especially when it changes everything you think you know about yourself."

Bel managed a small chuckle. "Yeah. That about sums it up."
