Hee, I would like to subscribe to your character modifications. I'm always in favor of serious characters being secret dorks.
Alright, while the angels are here on Earth, they are DELIBERATELY VAGUE about all theological things and any time one of the idiot angel duo says anything about heaven, God, or any other higher up things, the other is quick to point out that everything said is just a metaphor and is 90% inaccurate, but there's no way to explain it all in human language (or rather, they could, but it would take more than Sarah's lifetime to actually explain it).
The general idea is that God is like the President and Big Boss of the universe, and the angels are the workers in terms of figuring out the little details of how things work. And, of course, in that process, you have the Research & Development departments, and in particular, the beta testers, which is where the main angel cast comes from. They're the ones who really got into whatever assignment they were given, trying out and testing the loopholes and nuances of things like Family and Happiness and Sarcasm. This means they're actually the best equipped for life on Earth, because they have such a wide variety of emotional experiences.
The other big part of the mythology is how, while God is All Knowing, that doesn't mean he's thinking about everything at every single moment. Which means that if you do your best to stay below the radar and not draw attention, you can potentially get away with stuff long enough to fix your own problems before He notices. It's sort of like remembering who your second grade teacher was--you probably know their name, but how long has it been since you actually thought about them?
Alrighty, next question. Have you ever developed a crush on one of your characters, or designed them to be particularly sexy, adorable, moe, whatever to your own tastes?
