Isabella has read the guestbook. Stella began her work slowly because others in her world had magic and could have used it against her. Shell Bell began her work abruptly and openly because she had a government to depose.
The angel Isabella has neither problem. No one will oppose her. She herself does not oppose the Archangel Linus, who is doing a perfectly serviceable job. And anything she does will be taken as Jovah's own miracles until and unless she announces herself. She is willing that credit for her thought and design and for Micaiah's tithe in pain go to Jovah, who permits them to wield this power, who ought to be shown that she can control the magic, that she's not in it for glory.

"Even if I never sang just for coins," says Isabella, when the mass ends with a prolonged and decorated amen, "any normal schedule will have us so weighted down with them we'll have to wish them lighter just so we can move around, even me. This is more than Shell Bell was carrying already. I wonder why."

"Well, I bet you Shell Bell doesn't sing for hers," Micaiah points out. "So maybe they only make coins when they want coins, and they don't want that many."

"I guess that's true," says Isabella, reaching out to run a finger along the coin edges lined up along her chain. To her ears only it makes a musical clinking sound, although the coins are visible on both chains to both of them.

"Let's go get dinner," she says, picking him right up and sauntering to the door of the music room.

"I like it when you carry me around," he says, snuggling into her arms.

"Then I shall have to do it often," she says, squeezing him and grinning.
Dinner (with Serah and a pair of her and Isabella's more secondary friends, an angel boy a bit younger than them and his angel-seeker-but-very-nice girlfriend) ensues.

Micaiah spends a lot of time during the meal giving his angel soppy looks. Because he looooooves her.

The angel-seeker thinks this is terribly cute. It doesn't seem like Serah has spilled the beans about the baby, but the impending wedding is apparently public knowledge now.
After dinner, Isabella says, [I think my parents should know about Damaris-or-Zion.]

They head for Rinnah and Charles's quarters from the dining hall, but the door into the stairwell to the correct floor is Milliways instead.
Angela giggles and ushers Micaiah inside. "I'd say Rinnah and Charles can wait, but they don't even have to," she says.

On the third spin, a man wearing a dark purple suit and messy clown makeup catches Micaiah's hand and stops him.
"You're a me!" he declares, grinning. "Hi, me!"

"You're -" Angela blinks at the scars. "Another Whistle," she adds. (This is not what she was going to say originally.)

"Sure," laughs the Joker, tugging on Micaiah's hand to twirl him in for a hug and a kiss.

Angela averts her eyes, although she's perfectly calm about the proceedings.
