[Join the club, Samandriel. If you're looking for a fellow soul who's busy trying to overcome a mountain of trauma, you've hit the mother load in Adam.
However, so much of Adam's misery has come directly or indirectly at the hands of angels, and if what Charlie had said about prophets is true, then his whole life might have been one big game of chess with angels dictating his movements as a pawn. That doesn't make sympathy for angels easy. What he sees when Samandriel looks at the ground isn't an angel abashed at showing weakness, it's...
He's not sure what it is. He's less and less sure the longer the little kid squirms. What, had Wonderland snatched up the world's most apologetic killing machine?]
Which part, the Apocalypse or your boss using the illegitimate brother as bait?
[He isn't as sharp this time, more dry with resignation that his life is shit and every angel in Heaven knows it. There's no point in malice. He can't hurt an angel, not physically and probably not even emotionally, but there is plenty of prejudice when he looks at one of Samandriel's kind, just as there is for angels and demons.
If this one can actually wrap his head around Adam not wanting them interfering at every turn, he's light years ahead of the rest of the class. Gold star for you, cherub.]
