More Open_on_Sunday Drabbles

[dlgood]

I continue to have no real fic ideas this week. In the absence, here are some modified versions of the Drabbles I posted for this week's open_on_sunday challenge - themed around "Creation". Both Angel. One serious, one silly.
---------------------------------------------------

Title: To Live as God
Characters: Angel
Spoilers: AtS 1.15 "The Prodigal"
Disclaimer: Property of Mutant Enemy
Theme: Creation

Man is created in God's image, and it is only natural for man to wish to create as well. Works of art to honor His glory. You never showed Kathy's portrait. Icons had been promised to the church. But God failed to inspire you as He should, and you abused His gifts.

When you are freed of father, freed of God, free of soul and free of any Master; you create terrible beauties to honor the only God you believe in - Passion.

But you are free no longer. And for the first time in your wretched existence, you thank God.

A.N.: Reference to Angel's comment - "To kill without remorse is to feel like a God."

Title: Cantor Rabinowitz Sings Again
Characters: Angel, Eve, Lorne
Spoilers: AtS 5.05 "Life of the Party"
Disclaimer: Property of Mutant Enemy
Theme: Creation

Angel scowled as he heard the loud voice drifting in from the hall.

"Why is Lorne singing Kol Nidre?"

"Why would you recognize Kol Nidre?"

"Great. Eve, I thought we put a stop to this with the order not to resurrect Georgie Jessel."

"You'd think. But Jack Warner signed a very binding blood pact. If this film's not remade every quarter-century, there's hell to pay in Hollywood. Possibly, literally."

He sighed. "Danny Kaye was great. Now the 'first talkie' is the first publicized Demon picture? Neil Diamond and Lawrence Olivier were desecration enough, and I'd know. I hate this place."

A.N.: The remake in question is the legendary 1927 film, "The Jazz Singer" and the W&H update is going to star Lorne in the title role. I would be thrilled, impressed and amazed if someone could actually run with that.

Caught that undertone? I know someone who lived that undertone. A cousin knew someone who was actually taught to believe that Jews basically had horns. When she went to college and found out the truth, she was so incensed that not only did she cut herself off from her family, she eventually converted.

That story never fails to amuse me.
