Pretending to be a Virgin

At first I hated the way I had positioned Gabriel's head in the fourth panel. Then I decided that I loved it. Then that I hated it again. I love the 5th though, I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to catch the action in that frame and I ended up doing better than I had pictured.
In classical Roman civilization, Lectus means couch but only in the dining room (triclinium) where one would eat while reclining on a Lectus (yes, something from the Hollywood stereotype that wasn't a lie -overblown, true- but still fact.) Anywhere else the word 'lectus' means 'bed'. However, the citizens of Pandemonium are all angels and therefore do not sleep, making the word 'lectus' functional as the word 'couch' where ever one is. In Demonic Latin the word may be used to mean 'bed' if it is clear that they are speaking of a bed, but a separate -less clean- word has developed to take the meaning of bed due to it's only remaining function in the Demonic lifestyle.
