Comments on 'King In Hell'Simon sighed.
"It's not good enough," he said as he sat down. "I really frelled this up. The six of us against an army of souls and five Lucifers. And then Lilith and those Men In Black and all the rest of it."
A black, starry cloud that smelled of peppermint settled round Simon's shoulders. "Right will be, Da," thought Xirm Christ, the first of Simon's sons, born and died and risen on a world in which God had been tricked into imprisonment by the first and craftiest of Simon's Lucifers. "Past you look over, obvious see not."
"We've been through Hell, Dad," Billy Christ said with a flick of the tail.
"That's not making me feel better, kids," Simon said.
"Da no, _through Hell been me_," Xirm projected urgently. He was used to his heavenly father trapped beneath not listening, and had learned patience.
"When we died, Father," twittered Wook, we went to Hell."
Simon took his head out of his hands. He saw.
"'Who is King in Hell?'" Simon laughed with joy.
Things had just gotten a helluva lot easier.2008-04-17T22:57:13Zhttp://ficlets.com/feed/story/27197Comment on King In Hell<p>Well, just read <strong>Stovohobo</strong>’s excellent sequel, and feel free to add your own contributions, too. What’s happening to our heroes is something we’re <em>all</em> finding out as we go along….</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/27197?basename=571682008-04-17T22:57:13ZHowie Amourscowhttp://ficlets.com/authors/user_396Comment on King In Hell<p>I wish I knew enough about this stuff to continue on, but I’m slightly confused!</p>
<p>What’s happening to Blake and Angela, etc. back on Earth?</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/27197?basename=569882008-04-17T00:29:53ZOrangeOreoshttp://ficlets.com/authors/orangeoreosComment on King In Hell<p>It will go on…<br />I suggest to whoever adds next that they focus on someone other than Simon. Just an idea that might help someone think of something.<br />I myself am blank.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/27197?basename=559982008-04-13T18:44:05ZFyora Cartaganhttp://ficlets.com/authors/fyoramacraggeComment on King In Hell<p>Oh great… did I kill this series <em>again</em>...? :-(</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/27197?basename=559852008-04-13T18:13:04ZHowie Amourscowhttp://ficlets.com/authors/user_396Comment on King In Hell<p>Nice. Can’t go wrong with relying on Dante.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/27197?basename=555002008-04-10T21:06:32ZAlexa ♥http://ficlets.com/authors/alexa1018Comment on King In Hell<p>I worried I wrote everyone into a corner, then remembered a long ago high school English class, and Dante’s <em>Inferno</em>: the belief from the Middle Ages, that Jesus spent three days in Hell freeing the souls of the unbaptized ancestors.<br />.<br />Lucifer, in that conception, is a creation of God, as is Hell, and therefore God is master of Hell and can do what He wants.<br />.<br />In short, it’s <em>possible</em> that Simon only needs to worry about what he didn’t create.<br />.<br />I leave it to others to decide how he can use this.</p>http://ficlets.com/stories/27197?basename=553222008-04-09T22:55:05ZHowie Amourscowhttp://ficlets.com/authors/user_396
