It had been a long time since the last time He woke up. Last time it had been such a nice day. Sunny all over His perfect new globe, birds chirping gaily, people covering their private bits. He'd been so proud of himself--although modest as well. Just the right amount of pride, He told Himself. He could be only a little prideful over this. It was His world. He did make it. And it did only take six days. Not like He was gloating.
But now, He looked down on His perfect world after his nice, long nap and found it wasn't perfect.
Humbug, he sighed, crossing His metaphysical arms over His metaphysical chest.
I thought I told Them to watch over while I took a nap. Ah, well, nothing a little miracle can't fix. Oh me! What is that? Drat it.And then he was hit very hard in the nose with something indistinguishable, and was dislodged from his nice warm bed, only to plummet to almost certain doom on the face of the Earth. It had started out such a promising day, too. He hit the ground with a substantial thud, not thirty seconds later, and rolled over onto His stomach. "Ow!" He attempted to boom, cradling a twisted wrist in His uninjured hand.
Above Him, He could almost hear several archangels yelling orders to panicked inferiors. They must be making plans to get Him back up, He told Himself and brushed off His white robe, annoyed. Now, God wasn't one to get annoyed, but He found it rather difficult not to be at least a little irked by His current situation. He didn't belong on the ground. He belonged in heaven.
All around him was barren land, bereft of any significant features, save for a few bushes and a line of houses on either side. He marveled briefly at the craftsmanship before stepping out into the middle of the street, where a car nearly hit Him. It screeched to a halt, honked, and revved until He moved out of the way, His eyes wide in wonder.
Had He created this? The last thing He could remember making was squirrels. He was quite proud of His squirrels. Smiling, he looked around for one, hoping to see it in action, but he had no such luck and ended up wandering down the street instead, marveling at the excellent craftsmanship of the houses and trees.

It was a wonderful day. The sun was creeping over the roofs, casting elegant shadows. Trees swayed regally in a low, pleasant breeze. Birds chirped, babies giggle while their mother's rocked them in mahogany cradles. Everything was truly wonderful.
Carly puked the rest of her early breakfast into the toilet and wiped her mouth on a tissue. Felix poked his skinny head through the door on quiet paws. He sniffed the toilet bowl and put his tail between his legs when Carly flushed, leaning on the sink to stand up. She wished for the umpteenth time that someone had told her that the bread marked ‘gluten free’ was a recycled one, and her turkey sandwich was made with gluten bread.
Glaring at the soap, she washed her clammy hands and pale face, her glasses almost knocked off her nose as she did so. She straightened her shirt and pulled on a sweater, pleased enough with her appearance, she shoved her folded McDonald's uniform into her bag and took off with one final ruffle of Felix's fur.
She stepped out into the dewy morning, shielding her eyes in distaste.
ooc; I'm bringing Joshy-Boy in later. Too much for one intro. Data overload.
