Added Good Angel, Bad Angel to Burk's entry.

Added DiffLines:

* GoodAngelBadAngel: Played with, as occasionally two mini-Burks ([[RedOniBlueOni one red, one blue]]) will appear, but they don't argue like most examples, instead complimenting Burk. [[spoiler:The Heroland arc reveals that this pair are ''actual'' spirits that follow Burk around. Apparently they used to mess with humans like Vonesperda had, but Burk "set [them] straight," so instead they follow him around and offer advice (they would also grant him powers, but Burk has refused). They do seem to take some joy in the chaos Burk brings and give off a NightmareFace when talking about offering him advice, so their morality is somewhat debatable.]]
