In the PoV it says that Ramiel realized he loves Gabriel but does he still feel that way in the present? ngl im getting some sort of sadistic glee at the idea of Ramiel being the one with unrequited feelings now
Yep. But Ramiel expects Gabriel to have moved on. He doesn’t expect anything to come of his feelings, and he will not make the first move. Ramiel’s arc is more focused on atonement in the present. He realizes he’s screwed up; he believes he sealed his fate long ago. He just wants Gabriel to be safe and happy.
It’ll be hard to inflict any sort of emotional pain on him that he feels like he doesn’t deserve already.
