[WHAT RYAN YOU HAVE SOMETHING YOU WANT TO KEEP PERSONAL THATS FUN- okay even Zelos is not that much of a vengeful dick.]

If that's your choice. Don't worry, I won't mention anything.

[Admittedly, Zelos knew very little about Earth religions. Even though...he's kinda wondering if Ryan might be a wee off base in what makes an angel of death or not. Just...saying]

And well that depends on the angel. Some can make their own choices, but most can't. [And are essentially soulless killing machines- but oh he'll not mention that and stick with the Church doctrine] Although the ones who can't mostly stay in Heaven and serve out the will of the Goddess - or whatever you prefer to call the supreme power.

As for me, I'm a Chosen One. It's...complicated, but essentially it means I was a human born with the power to become an angel when I was old enough and bring salvation to the world.

Trust me, it's totally my choice. You really think anybody would take me seriously if they knew that part? [He's listening...and that sorta makes sense, except he's a little hung up on one thing.

"Chosen One."

Yeah. Yeah, because that's not going to open a whole lot of questions.]

You know this isn't convincing me that you shouldn't have mentioned this any sooner, right?

Hmmm...no. [He knows fully well how much people listen to spoiled rich kids. Honestly, he's used that tactic more than a few times to get people to underestimate him]

Sure, but I'm still sticking with I didn't think it was relevant.

Exactly. [A beat.] I'm tired of people not taking me seriously until I throw myself into stuff.

Even if it's not relevant it's important because it's a huge part of who you are, right?

Fair enough. Though....it'll probably be some years before people stop doing that. [Since hey, you are a teenager and all]

It is, but... [There's a beat before he admits] It can be tiring, having people think that's the only part of who I am.

[...and it's about that point that he finally, finally gets it.]

...kinda like how it'd be pretty bad if people only saw me as the drama geek who wears a lot of pink. That's exactly what you've been trying to say, isn't it.

[Four for you Ryan Evans, four for you]

Well, I don't get what's wrong with wearing a lot of pink - but, sure. If you wanna put it like that.

[He just sort of laughs, but it's not entirely amused.]

You've never been inside a high school locker room, have you? [Yes, rhetorical question.] According to a lot of people, there's a lot wrong with guys wearing a lot of pink.

Like...?

...wait are you serious?

Yeah. It's like you said- I don't hang around many high school locker rooms.

[And seriously, wtf is wrong with pink you heathens]

...let me ask you something. And this has to stay between you and me, okay?

Okay...?

[Is this locker room thing supposed to be some kind of cult? Should he be concerned?]

If you saw a guy kissing another guy where you're from, what would you do?

[....]

Well, I'm more into women so...probably nothing?

Okay...well, where I'm from it's not exactly...people don't...[Words, Ryan.]

There are a lot of people who aren't okay with it, basically. Including a lot of guys in locker rooms.

[Luckily, while Zelos isn't used to Earth culture- he's by no means naive. So it's not hard for him to put the pieces together]

You mean...people in your world discriminate against guys who are into guys- and somehow that has to do with the color pink?

Yup! [The shrug's, again, audible.] Not all people...some people are really cool about it but for the most part? There's a reason I really, really wanted to move to New York and get out of New Mexico.

Basically people function under the idea that if a guy wears a lot of pink, it makes them less "masculine" or something. Queer. Whatever word you want to use. And I guess that just scares them. Or something.

Because you're into guys...?

[He just gives a little sigh; because seriously humanity way to find another nonsensical way to discriminate against people] Lovely.

I never said I was. [It's a short, cut-off answer.] But some people don't like things that are different.

Really? You're seriously trying to convince me you wanted to leave your hometown and family over a color...?

[If it sounds like he doesn't believe you, it's because he doesn't believe you]

No, I wanted to leave my hometown to go to school for dance. [That is to say he's going to try to argue a little anyway.]

[Even if it's audio, Ryan can probably tell in the silence that Zelos is just giving this face at the locket]

...remember how you were saying the angel thing isn't relevant? This isn't relevant. [Other than wanting to resist kissing Mako-cats, but details.]

Well no, it's not- I don't really care who you're into.

It's just...you're acting really weird about it.
