Herbert lifted his arms and draped them over Aziraphanle's shoulders, relieved beyond belief by the angel's continuing willingness. So he wasn't disgusting or broken after all...

"They got worse as she got older," Herbert said by way of confirmation. "Incarceration was considered, but she died before Vati's father could do it. I'm lucky," he added darkly. "I had two blows against me- anyone but Vati would have had me locked up, for being a lunatic as well as preferring the company of other males..."

((I didn't just now because I have less than five minutes, but anytime I have more than this I definitely will. <3 See you around.))
