#she can't drop a cheesy pickup line without either getting too embarrassed or giggly to get through it

So I've seen some comments about how once Charlie and Vaggie patch up their relationship, Vaggie will have to deal with "fell from heaven" and other angel-related pickup lines from Charlie, but honestly that might be giving Charlie too much credit. I love her, but I'm not sure she could manage to get through pickup lines like that, even with her own girlfriend she's been with for years. She's precious and sweet and loving, but I do not have full faith in her ability to flirt coherently, especially if she's actively trying to do it.

But you know what I'd love to see? Angel teasingly throwing those lines at Vaggie. Not with any kind of flirty intent (obviously, he's gay and she's a lesbian in a very committed relationship), but as his way of casually showing her he still cares about her even knowing the truth about her past. Accompanied by Vaggie pretending to be pissed, but actually knowing what he's trying to say and appreciating it. Him tossing angel-related pickup lines at her every few days and her insincerely telling him to shut the fuck up would be so good, and a great way for his care and support to show through within the bounds of their existing dynamic.
