[ Gamaliel is at the arcade in Bikini Bottom! They don't seem to be doing anything in particular, though; they're simply leaning against a convenient counter looking at the games from time to time before going back to whatever it is they could possibly be doing on their phone.
they'll at least look up and give a casual wave when they see shadowheart, but they are not starting a conversation without prompting, it looks like ]

[ hello. today, zuriel is at one of the souvenir shacks on the boardwalk in bikini bottom, rotating through a kiosk of sunglasses. they pull out a white-framed pair to examine before they spot shadowheart and give a little wave. ]
Exploring?
Exploring?
[ ramiel is at the beach in bikini bottom! they're sitting on the soundstage with their legs over the edge, tapping at their phone - which seems to be controlling the music coming out of the speakers. it's like... soundcloud techno. shadowheart likes techno music, right?
when they see her they give an enthusiastic wave! ]

[ you did say everybody... so later in the day, perhaps shadowheart enters the bar back in the neighborhood. however, when she does, she will find there is a new glowing figure behind the bar itself wiping a glass clean and restocking some bottles. a small gold halo hovers behind them, and they do not seem to be surprised someone came in. the bar is 24/7 after all. ]
Hey, welcome. I'll be with you in a sec, or we've got self-serve options available.
[ or maybe she'll just leave? that is also an option. ]

[she's just exploring. what's an arcade. i feel like she can get a sense of the aesthetic that this is games, but she has no idea how any of it works.]
...Hello. Some sort of gambling hall? In heaven?

[she is! she can be out taking the owlbear for a walk.]
Yes. What caused all of this to open up, suddenly? A beach town?

[she's more of an emo and nu wave girl obviously. also she has no idea how this is playing.]
Good day. Is that some sort of enchantment? That would surely put the bards out of business.

[there's absolutely no question she ends the day back at the bar, so good.]
Well, hello. We have personalized service now, do we?
[this is already her favorite angel.]

[ well they'll put the phone back when addressed, although-- ]
Some people would enjoy it. [ a gambling hall. they don't seem to think gambling is a sin? ] These are just games, though. Not even gatcha ones, so no gambling involved.

It's electric. But it may as well be an enchantment, especially in Heaven.
[ yes, thank you for this really unclear explanation. ]
But the bards would adapt. I think.

It wouldn't be bad if some of them didn't make it.
[ they. think about this. ]
Sort of? There's no age limit, but it is more for kids. The prizes sure are.

[ cool, they are absolutely staring at this owlbear. like. in intrigue. but oh, right, a question! ]
Nothing in particular. Heaven is a lot bigger than I think some of you realize. With the train running, you'll get to see a lot of other places over the next several weeks.

So it seems. Sorry I missed the welcome wagon, but had a supply run to do. You understand. [ they set the glass down, leaning their hands on the counter to observe her. ]
So. How can I personalize your service today?

A lot of them won't. At least, not financially. Or in terms of fame.
But from the other side of things, it's very easy to find the music that you do like!

[he's just a cute fat baby. he's barely even following though mostly just running around.]
It doesn't surprise me that it's big, but this part of it is just us, isn't it?
[aside from. the network.]

I suppose any children that wind up here deserve a little levity.

Is this the sort of music you like best?

I do.

Do you have a name? First things first.

Gabriel works. And who do I have the pleasure of speaking with?
Adults need it too. But maybe some of the other areas are better for that.

Yeah. This is a special holdings ground for you guys during the judgement period, but just because it's only for you doesn't mean it has to be small. We want you all to be as comfortable here as possible while going through your journey.

It's my favorite.
But I like all music. Would you like me to play something else for you?

I'd ask why we need a special holding ground, but it is all too evident.
