Ezekiel's Links
Ezekiel particularly enjoys using Serena to get his more annoying chores out of the way. He finds that it's especially easy to coax her into doing what he wants, and very often calls her to "help" with his given tasks.
Although he knows she only hangs around him because of his (fake) money, he still finds her actions humorous.
Ezekiel finds it funny that an angel is so easily bought by material goods.
For now, he's content with having her be a little bit afraid of him so that she listens when he needs something.
He'll still feign ignorance towards any accusations she throws his way with a warm smile.
“Do you know? He’s just like me! His wings...”
Ezekiel is one of the first people Serena interacted with on Earth, and in some ways, she does have a certain trust in him— not only because she believes him to be an angel, but also because she thinks he struggles with flight just like her. His particularly disarming smile is just a nail on the coffin… His presence was comforting for her, especially when she was homesick the first week on Earth. He was the first ‘angel’ she met on Earth. Serena often helps Ezekiel with chores, and while she was initially excited to help out, it became something she started to protest (badly) against. However, all her attempts to quit results in failure due to being distracted by Ezekiel’s warm smile and disarming words… She always finds herself helping despite promising to herself that ‘this would be the last time!!!’ In the end, Serena can only keep her complaints and negative thoughts to herself (albeit badly). After discovering the more questionable aspects of his personality, she feels a little scammed. Just a little…Serena finds herself always testing the boundaries, pushing at it and then quickly retreating with a mouthful of apologies and promises when it seems that Ezekiel is even mildly upset or annoyed. More than once, she has been caught badmouthing him.... She finds him just a bit intimidating… especially after seeing him explode a tree…
Though initially Serena treats Ezekiel as an Elder of sorts (especially after knowing that he was there to write down her name when she first became an angel), that line is often blurred after frequent meals together (though Serena is the only one eating...). While Serena initially felt reluctant to mooch off of him, she gradually became a little shameless, even going as far to straight up ask him for food. Even though Serena enjoys eating different types of human food, she wishes Ezekiel would also eat with her. It feels awkward to always be eating by herself, especially since he’s the one who pays. Cue Serena trying to shove food into his mouth… Recently, she’s been giving him little gifts as if they were offerings… really cheap offerings ($1 sticker tag still on)… They’re actually to appease her guilt of mooching off of him….
Ezekiel sees Haeun often, due to the circumstances of his work. He finds it more convenient to just be nice to her, as his visits with her are short. It's also an advantage, since Haeun gives him lots of gifts and shows him around. He thinks it's more of an advantage to have her trust him, just in case.
He thinks Haeun is very childish and innocent- much like some of the angels he knew back when he was an angel.
Although most of the gifts Haeun gives him go into the fire (because of Asura), he always thanks her with a smile.
After Asura critically struck Ezekiel and successfully rid him of his angel status, Ezekiel agreed to work for Asura- having nowhere else to go. Although Ezekiel at first struggled to accept the changes he was going through (starting from his right shoulder where he was stabbed by Asura), he soon found it hopeless and decided to give in.
Ezekiel finds life amusing under Asura, and despite covering up Asura's messes, he thinks of Asura as a master worthy of his service.
In the end, Ezekiel always has fun accompanying Asura on his day to day adventures.
