@holykept 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝, " some paradises are a bridge too far . "
there was always that stereotype, with angels. always something they had just assumed about them - what had been written in books, well, there was hardly information out there that would bother to expand on that, let alone give solid proof. aziraphale made it very clear to her, that whatever heaven was, it wasn’t the paradise it was depicted to be. and well, it didn’t seem to be too much of a surprise to her; there was certainly some reason he stayed on earth for so long.
“ that doesn’t mean they’re impossible to reach. ” there has to be some sliver of hope, right? he’s been around longer than she has, so he should know -- but perhaps, the forbidden fruits continued to tempt long after eve took a bite of that apple. “ finding paradise -- that’s the trial of mankind, is it not? ”
