Now the younger angel is laughing, cheery, bright, and angelic, eyes glittering. "Did you forget his pride? Lucifer puts the peacocks to shame."
The laughing stopped but the smile remained as he ate a few more marshmallows. However, as Balthazar spoke the smile faded and he stared down into the cup of cocoa.
"I think it's good." He went quiet and his whole presence depressed which was a rare thing for Azazael, to be anything but bubbly. He loved Lucifer dearly, somewhere between hero worship and his big brother. "I don't know if he can take much more hurt. It's like part of him dies with them and it never heals, never gets less over time."
He looked over at the other angel still sad but trying to smile. "I hope you don't die or hurt him. It destroys him when he loses those around him."
He slowly brightened back up. "I met an Aziraphale this morning, at the park. I don't know if it is the same one." But his brow furrows. "Vessel?"
