I assure you that angelic hierarchy doesn't mean much to me.

( which is not to say he isn't aware of it; angels and archangels and all the company of heaven, so on, so forth.

but aziraphale, remember, he's catholic. self hating as they come. you're automatically a more remarkable, incredible being than he is just based on your heavenly title. when he's not like to meet the Metatron or Gabriel any time soon, just a regular old angel is impressive enough. )

I can't say I'm glad you're here, all things considered. But I'm glad to have met you, despite the circumstances.
