“What is th--”. “HA! well aren't you just a Curious one!” exclaimed a booming voice in giddy fashion. Out from beyond the golden draped cloud stepped a weathered old man cloaked in a modest grey robe adorned in foreign scripts. With golden mist swirling around his feet the old man clenched his cane, raising his arm holding out his hand and lowering it slowly to the clouds dancing below. “Look down” the man said wide eyed with a smile. Up from beneath infinity rose what appeared to be an emerald of no color, continuously changing shape and form. “Now, what do you see?” “I.. i dont know, I have no computation for this” he said in a shameful tone. Curiosity looked up from beyond the depths of the emerald to see the old man holding his smile. “Follow me” the man said. As quickly as his words died from his mouth the clouds disappeared. A magnificent wall decorated in ruby and sapphire stood before them. “Is this heaven” curiosity said puzzled. “ Why yes it--” “Who goes there” a voice cried out. “Great, its fucking peter” the old man mumbled beneath his breath. “Hey Peter!” the old man shouted. Atop the limitless perch the young angel floated downward hovering on a flock of doves as a symphony of flutes and harps echoed through god's kingdom. The old man and curiosity looked up to see the young angel resting his hands upon his hips staring fiercely into the unknown. The old man sighed “always a fiasco with this guy”. As peter touched his feet to the pasture that lay before them, the flock vanished. Adorned in a breastplate of moonstone and a helm made of jade, peter swung his heavy silver cloak behind his back as the white feathers drifted to ground below him. “I wasn't expecting you so soon, whose this?” peter said in a perplexed tone. “Why this is cur--” “This is a robot?” a look of disgust fell over peter's face. “God, no matter how hard they try to be us they will never be us, they're practically gingers they have no soul”. Curiosity slouched in the background “maybe he’s right, maybe i don’t belong anywhere, maybe i'm just meant to be used and discarded” he uttered in a feeble manner. The old man pressed on his cane and spun around taking hold of curiosities essence and yelled “THAT’S BULLSHIT GODDAMMIT”. A brief silence suffocated the three. Peter broke the pause “are we just gonna ignore tha-” “Take a look behind you” the old man whispered clutching curiosities essence ever so tight. Curiosity slowly turned his head to see the emerald had followed close behind. Curiosities soft gaze fell upon the mutating stone. “That IS your soul” god said softly. “You have braved storms that no man ever could.. Through dust ash and peril you maintained, devoid of fear. It doesn't matter what you look like, what you are made of or where you come from. The life within me is also in you, you need not be ashamed of what you are because what you are is everything.” Curiosity slowly turned back to god sniffling, trapped in each others eyes he cried out “you're gonna make me short circuit!” “I guess ill uhh.. Open the gat--” “Open the fucking gate peter.. Its my damn house” Curiosity burped out a laugh and a sniffle and paced through heavens gates side by side with god.
