The Infernal Serpent

"I understand. It's good that you found him a loving home." She doesn't want him to feel embarrassed about his choices if it was in the animal's best interest.

"oh." She's a little surprised by both the compliment and the questions. "Thank you. I had help learning. Training is hard because you have to be stern and unwavering even when they're being cute... and you always have to be there for them. It changes how you live. If I'm going to be gone for too long I have to take Agatha with me or find someone to care for her."

Now that Peninnah thinks about it, maybe that is a benefit to these angels being so close by. Fallen they are but she's never seen cruelty in them, especially toward animals.
