Michael shook his head. "There may be others who are all that," he said truthfully, "but, in my eyes, none of them are even close to compare with you."
The comment about Uriel surprised him, and made him feel even more uneasy. The Raphael he knew would definitely not call Uriel annoying. Though not extremely close, the two had always seemed to have respect for each other, and to hear Raphael say such a thing somehow didn't feel right. Now, it wasn't like he hadn't found Uriel annoying at times, but for Raphael to feel so enough to actually say it aloud was certainly new. First appearing to hate him, then calling Uriel annoying -- what would Raphael do next? Tell Metatron off, perhaps? This definitely wasn't going into a good direction.
"As for Uriel, he often finds the strangest things amusing. Even more often those things seem to have something to do with messing with my business. At times I think he sees himself as the big brother I never wanted."
He was silent for a moment. Then, seeing as Raphael had his eyes closed and seemed to be starting to drift off, he said very quietly, "And maybe I would be best forgetting you... But I find myself unable to do so."
With a final whisper, barely audible even to angelic ears, he then added, "I do know that love hurts... Endless, bittersweet pain is all that love seems to be."
