Being gazed at with such attention and, daresay, adoration nearly knocks him right back on his feet and right out the door.

But he doesn't do that. And not merely due to the fact that the angel is laying at his feet as it is, and he has no intention of disturbing him. But for as overwhelming as it is to be the recipient of such a look, he finds himself wanting it. Which is not really the surprising part - that would be the fact that perhaps, maybe, just this once, he thinks he can allow himself to stay within it.

If he may be so bold, he may even - he does even, turn his head slightly, letting- trying- his lips brush against the angel's finger. If there ever was a blasphemous act, it should be this, one of the (ejected) Fallen letting themselves be adored by someone as glorious as this.
