Four Months Later
"Can you please just read from the script?" Ellie sighs, placing a hand on her forehead.
"This is so fucking stupid." Adam pouts.
"Today, Adam." Ellie crosses her arms.
"Fine, fuck," He sighs before turning to the camera as they stand outside of the hotel. "Hello, fellow celestial beings. I am here today to discuss a very serious topic: why cussing too much is bad in Heaven."
Ellie suppresses a giggle and Adam glares at her before continuing.
"Firstly, cussing disrupts the harmony of Heaven. Imagine, if you will, a choir of angels singing a beautiful hymn, and suddenly, someone drops an 'F-bomb.' Not very heavenly, is it?" He says before stopping. "This flowery bullshit is the reason-"
"Adam, holy shit, just read. It's not hard, I know you know how to read." Vaggie snaps.
"Secondly, cursing can lead to unexpected consequences. For example, last week, Gabriel stubbed his toe on a cloud and let out a string of curses. Do you know what happened? He accidentally summoned a storm cloud that rained on a heavenly picnic. The seraphim were not pleased," He says dramatically before throwing the script on the ground. "Okay, that's not even true! Lying is a sin, Eleanor."
"Fiction isn't lying. Come on, you're almost done. I don't have the patience to re-film the whole thing with you so we're editing this in post." Ellie shakes her head.
"Thirdly, cussing can lead to misunderstandings. Just the other day, Michael overheard Raphael muttering some choice words about 'damnation' and thought the apocalypse had started. Needless to say, it was a false alarm, but Michael hasn't slept since." He rolls his eyes.
"And lastly, cussing just isn't very angelic. We're supposed to be the paragons of virtue, the shining examples of goodness and purity. How can we inspire the mortals below if we're cursing like sailors on leave?" Adam glances up at Ellie, who gives him a thumbs-up.*
"So, in conclusion, let's all make an effort to keep our language pure and our hearts light. Remember, a kind word can lift spirits, while a curse can bring clouds to even the brightest skies."
"Thank you! Finally, was that so bad?"
"No." He mumbles.
"Great. You're done for now, have a great rest of your day, Adam." Ellie smiles and he stomps off immediately.
"At least he listens to you...somewhat." Vaggie nudges her.
"Yeah, but it took a long two weeks to get here. Maybe in a year, he'll stop complaining." She laughs, taking the camera.
"You got it?" Vaggie points to the camera.
"Yeah, all good. I'll be back tomorrow morning, I'm headed out." Ellie nods.
"See you tomorrow." She smiles before turning around to walk away.
Ellie does the same, beginning the walk to Lucifer's place as she takes out her phone. She dials the number and puts it to her ear while impatiently waiting.
"Hello?"
"Vox! I got another one for you, are you ready for it or should I wait to send it?" Ellie asks.
"You have pretty girl syndrome, you know that? You're smart enough to edit these videos yourself." He chuckles.
"But why would I when you'll do it for me?" She jokes.
"Fine, send it over. What is it that this video is supposed to be?" He says as she opens a portal directly to his office and she hangs up the phone.
"It's a PSA-style video about cussing in Heaven. But Adam stops reading to complain so we have to work around that." She places the camera on his desk in front of him.
