Heartwarming / Paradise Thwarted

Go To

  • Crowley's desperate attempts to Fall, while amusing due to his continued failures, is rather sweet when you consider that he is doing so because he wants to save Aziraphale.
  • The explanation of the very few times God has frowned on creation is both this and a bit of a tearjerker.
  • Crowley is iffy about being around the archangels again once's he's re-Fallen, but Raphael couldn't care less, since he loves "Zizi".
  • Gabriel and Lucifer come to an arrangement over Michael's ultimate fate.
  • Belial's repeated attempts to seduce Uriel are hilarious, but Belial proves he genuinely cares about Uriel when he defies Satan to his face to keep him safe. Not only that, but he fights against his boss, the Adversary himself, and siphoons off his natural power in order to give Uriel a better chance at winning. Even Crowley could only manage a hasty punch in the heat of the moment, and unlike him Belial actually went back into Lucifer's presence afterward.
    • What happened before Belial fought Lucifer bears mentioning as well. After getting telepathic orders to kill Uriel, he is overcome with conflicted emotion and tries straight-up groping Uriel, hoping for a hint of reciprocity. After realizing Uriel doesn't recognize what he's doing at all, and in fact is a little uncomfortable with how intimate his 'hug' is, he stops and tells Uriel "Never mind. Just...just never mind."
  • Chamuel letting Asmodeus rise to be with a woman that he loves.
