Ok but consider this.
When Vaggie first falls she doesn’t trust Charlie. I mean the girl is a demon and up in heaven they are trained to kill demons. So obviously. Charlie is doing everything to get on this cute injured girls good side.
So she notices how Vaggie spends every day looking up at the bright light in the sky that is heaven. Vaggie meanwhile is just hoping Lute or any of her friends in heaven would come back for a member of their flock. A member they left behind.
Charlie notices how much she enjoys staring up and being outside and thus the pirate ship Eagal’s nest stays a part of the hotel.
(It ends up there after a turf war battle. I imagine someone like Sir Pencious except more pirate than steampunk crashes it and it’s just too much work to clean at a single point.)
Anyway Charlie keeps note of how every day for an entire year Vaggie spends her nights staring at the only bright light in the sky. Including extermination day which had her SO stressed.
So stressed that she decides she needs to do something to keep this girl inside and away from danger And Charlie being Charlie thinking Vaggie is a moth sinner goes out and buys a really nice lamp for their room. Except Vaggie doesn’t even bat an eye.
So she keeps going out and buying lights. Some brighter, some with intricate designs. At some point she just hands a disco ball in the room. Anything to make the room more appealing the Vaggie.
One day Vaggie gives up any hope of Heaven coming back for her. It’s her second extermination day as a member of hells population. And one of her sisters confused her for a sinner. Only being stopped at the last second when Charlie stood in front of her. Her hellborn status keeping the danger away.
So she stops looking at heaven. Turning her back on them just like they have to her.
Coincidentally that is the same time Charlie bought the most awful circle of light and hung it in place of the disco ball. This is quite literally an orb that just emanates light. And Vaggie is dumbfounded by its existence. Like sure Charlie has some weird taste in decoration but the miniature sun in the room is new. And Charlie seems unreasonably happy when she comes inside and sees Vaggie looking at it so she puts on a smile just for her.
Charlie is just happy that she seems to have appeased some moth side of Vaggie and she thinks it’a so cute how the moth girl in her bed squints her eyes almost softly scowling at the orb she put up.
The orb stays in their room all the way until it is revealed that Vaggie is secretly an angel. Vaggie still thinks she just has a weird girlfriend attached to lights. Charlie keeps this secret to her grave. (All of about 5 min after they make up and they both have a good laugh about it. The orb gets hung in the main room despite everyone else’s questioning as to why there is an ugly orb in the lobby).

Minnie Julia Riperton Rudolph (November 8, 1947 – July 12, 1979) was an American singer-songwriter best known for her 1975 single "Lovin' You" and her four octave D3 to F♯7 coloratura soprano range. She is also widely known for her use of the whistle register and has been referred to by the media as the "Queen of the Whistle Register."
Minnie Riperton grew up in Chicago's Bronzeville neighborhood on the South Side. As a child, she studied music, drama and dance at Chicago's Lincoln Center. The youngest of eight children in a musical family, she embraced the arts early. Although she began with ballet and modern dance, her parents recognized her vocal and musical abilities and encouraged her to pursue music and voice. At Chicago's Abraham Lincoln Center, she received operatic vocal training from Marion Jeffery. She practiced breathing and phrasing, with particular emphasis on diction. Jeffery also trained Riperton to use her full range. While studying under Jeffery, she sang operettas and show tunes, in preparation for a career in opera. Jeffery was so convinced of her pupil's abilities that she strongly pushed her to further study the classics at Chicago's Junior Lyric Opera.
The young Riperton was, however, becoming interested in soul, rhythm and blues, and rock. In her teen years, she sang lead vocals for the Chicago-based girl group the Gems. Eventually the group became a session group known as Studio Three and it was during this period that they provided the backing vocals on the classic 1965 Fontella Bass hit "Rescue Me".
After graduating from Hyde Park High School (now Hyde Park Academy High School), she enrolled at Loop College and became a member of Zeta Phi Beta sorority. She dropped out of college to pursue her music career.
Her early affiliation with the legendary Chicago-based Chess Records afforded her the opportunity to sing backup for various established artists such as Etta James, Fontella Bass, Ramsey Lewis, Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry and Muddy Waters. While at Chess, Riperton also sang lead for the experimental rock/soul group Rotary Connection, from 1967 to 1971.
On April 5, 1975, Riperton reached the apex of her career with her No. 1 single "Lovin' You". The single was the last release from her 1974 gold album titled Perfect Angel. Riperton's third album, Adventures in Paradise was released in 1975. Despite the R&B hit "Inside My Love", some radio stations refused to play "Inside My Love" due to the lyrics.
Her fourth album for Epic Records, titled Stay in Love (1977), featured another collaboration with Stevie Wonder in the funky disco tune "Stick Together".
In 1978, Richard Rudolph and Riperton's attorney Mike Rosenfeld orchestrated a move to Capitol Records for Riperton and her CBS Records catalog. In April 1979, Riperton released her fifth and final album, Minnie. "Memory Lane" was a hit from the album.
Riperton provided backing vocals on Stevie Wonder's songs "Creepin'" from 1974's Fulfillingness' First Finale and "Ordinary Pain" from 1976's Songs in the Key of Life. In 1977, she lent her vocal abilities to a track named "Yesterday and Karma", on Osamu Kitajima's album, Osamu.
In January 1976, Riperton was diagnosed with breast cancer and, in April, she underwent a radical mastectomy. By the time of diagnosis, the cancer had metastasized and she was given about six months to live. Despite the grim prognosis, she continued recording and touring. She was one of the first celebrities to go public with her breast cancer diagnosis but did not disclose she was terminally ill.
In 1977, she became a spokesperson for the American Cancer Society. In 1978, she received the American Cancer Society's Courage Award, which was presented to her at the White House by President Jimmy Carter.
Riperton died of cancer on July 12, 1979 at the age 31.
During the 1990s, Riperton's music was sampled by many rap and hip-hop artists, including Tupac Shakur, Dr. Dre, A Tribe Called Quest, Blumentopf, The Orb
