Summary
The first time Raphael wept was when he was brought low — wings smoldering and broken but whole — on the burning shores of the Lake of Fire. The tears fell from his eyes, rolled down his fevered, soot-smudged face, hissed out into steam before they could even touch the ground. He had never cried before- he had never known that he could. But then again such sorrow, too, had become known to him only then, upon his Fall. He had never felt pain of any sort before he hurtled downward for what felt like forever, disgraced and suddenly imperfect, punished for something he did not understand.
He would often wonder why others were shown Grace in the face of their malfeasance while he was cast out for a sin he would never understand for all of his days. Before the Garden, before the Apple, was a Child of God, feeling the fear of Her for the very first time and not understanding why.

Summary
Aziraphale sighed, and the font toppled over, landing on the stone floor with a dull crunch. Crowley groaned with frustration and tired anger, wheeling about to face the Angel. He wanted to look intimidating; he really did, but honestly, he had to stop to catch his breath when he saw him.
“What?” he shouted as if an hour ago, he wouldn’t have been willing to sell his soul for a second with the Angel. “What do you want?”
Despite the yelling, he was the one who flinched when Aziraphale stepped toward him. “I–”
“Clearly there’s something,” he said.” Go on, then. Spit it out so you can get back to
Heaven. The big boss is waiting, right?”
“Well, yes, that’s the thing. I think I’ve chosen wrong.”
