Loved the premise and the characters

Quotes I liked: “We found out what people wanted from the angels in the beta testing stage. They didn't want an omnipotent being who can tell them exactly how to get into Heaven. Humans won't just do what they're told to, but they want guidance all the same. It's why we developed two angels, offering variable input. Every action needs to seem like a conversation. A choice.”“We realized too late that a mind without a body can only exist for so long. There is an element of consciousness we couldn't replicate that must be connected to embodiment. To sleep. To dreams. They're important in ways we did not understand.”“we are doing good work. The world—it is better. I keep thinking of where we were a hundred years ago. Fifty. Twenty. Should we give all that up because death has some bugs?”
