Angel Dust/Relationships

Charlie Morningstar
"It's probably a good idea to get some actual food in this place. Y'know, to feed all the wayward souls you got in here!"

- Angel, to Charlie.

Angel is Charlie's first patron within the Hotel. Charlie is implied to be able to see through his persona in the prequel comic and, despite his attitude, she could tell he was unhappy with his life.

Though, initially accepting of the conditions he must abide by to stay there, he instead says he has been simply 'playing nice' in order to earn a free room.

When asked what his unfiltered thoughts of Charlie are in a creator stream, Angel said that Charlie's cheerful attitude sometimes makes him happy, however, he can find her constant positive personality irritating as he believes Hell isn't a happy place to live in.

Despite Charlie's insistence that Angel's behavior hasn't ruined things, Angel notices how his taunting of the Hotel's lack of customers has upset her. For a brief moment, he reaches out to try and console her before thinking better of it, hinting that he feels some sort of sympathy for her goals.

As revealed in the end credits scene in the ADDICT music video, Angel has a bit of hope that the hotel won't be as bad as the others make it out to be. Despite this, since he just became acquainted with Charlie, he does not fully trust her yet.

This is shown when Charlie tries to approach him as he was reminiscing of his traumatic experiences with Valentino, only for him to play off his shock as irritation and flip her off.

In "Masquerade", Angel was shocked that Charlie came to the porn studio in an attempt to talk Valentino into giving Angel more time off work. Angel was shown to actually care about Charlie because he begged Valentino not to hurt her, and felt remorseful after he had to lash out at her to get her out of the studio, making her cry. When Angel got back to the hotel with Husk, he accepted Charlie's apology and thanked her for caring about him.

Vaggie
"Just don't get your taco in a twist, baby."

- Angel, to Vaggie

Vaggie and Angel share a passive-aggressive "frenemy" relationship with each other. After the events of the pilot episode, they are on basic terms with one another.

The pilot reveals that Vaggie finds Angel's almost casual dismissal of his behavior infuriating, especially since it has upset Charlie in the process, but she respects him enough and explains things, such as Alastor's reputation, to him when he asks.

He can also be seen holding Vaggie back from attacking Alastor when the latter starts to sing, showing that, while they don't always get along, he doesn't want her doing stuff that could get her hurt.

During pre-production, Vaggie and Angel were written as a couple. But, this has since then been scrapped, and Angel and Vaggie were both changed to be homosexuals, with Vaggie being written to be in a relationship with Charlie Morningstar.

Niffty
As of the pilot, Angel and Niffty have yet to interact. However, Niffty mistakes him for a woman, most likely because of his feminine like features. Though, Angel does not seem to mind nor take offense to this.

In "Welcome to Heaven", Angel Dust is shown to be very protective of Niffty, keeping her from drinking and immediately defending her from Valentino.

Husk
"Like I said, you don't know me. Sex ain't the only thing I'm good at."

- Angel, to Husk.

Angel Dust started displaying a sexual attraction to Husk immediately after he is summoned by Alastor to be the bartender and desk clerk at the Happy Hotel. Angel begins to flirt with and playfully proposition Husk, much to the latter's annoyance.

After Sir Pentious's blimp is destroyed at the pilot's end, and the group begins heading back inside, Angel turns to blow Husk a kiss with a wink. Husk finds Angel Dust's flirting to be rather annoying and throws dismissive expletives at him.

Although it seems, after their initial meeting, they are off to a bad start, Vivziepop has previously described Husk as Angel's "best friend" during later development streams for the pilot, suggesting that their relationship may be planned to greatly improve.

In the series, there has been much growth in Husk and Angel Dust's relationship, and it has improved compared to what they had in the pilot. As the series progresses, Husk is seen genuinely caring about Angel, and wanting to protect him from harm. Husk also sees when Angel is being fake with him, and he tries to get through his "act", as he describes it, multiple times. Angel gets uncomfortable when Husk calls him out for being fake, and we see small snippets of the true Angel Dust breaking down because of it.

Angel Dust in the series continues to flirt with Husk, like he did in the pilot. Calling him nicknames like, "Whiskers", and making suggestive comments that make Husk uncomfortable. But, as Angel lets walls down, and he can be seen as who he really is around Husk, Angel speaks to him more as friend than a guy he toys with. This makes Husk want to be around Angel more, knowing he isn't putting on a facade. Husk is also seen empathizing with Angel in their duet, Loser, Baby, in the episode "Masquerade", after Angel opens up about his situation. It is apparent that Husk is expressing more interest in Angel Dust, after seeing that he isn't as shallow as he comes off to be. Angel and Husk have formed a special bond through being vulnerable and honest with each other.

Alastor
"I can suck ya dick!"

- Angel, offering his services

Angel admits to Vaggie that he has never heard of Alastor before his arrival at the Hotel, despite the Radio Demon's far-reaching reputation, stating he lacks interest in 'politics'.

Upon first being approached by Alastor and asked what talents he possesses, Angel swiftly offers up his 'services' as his solitary skill, breaking Alastor's composure before being swiftly and firmly turned down.

In Overture, Angel proposes that he and Alastor should have sex and film the porn as the Hazbin Hotel's new commercial. Alastor once again shoots the idea down.

Unnamed Father
While Angel is confirmed to have a father, it is unknown what sort of relationship the two have outside of being blood related.

Arackniss
Arackniss is Angel's older brother. According to Vivziepop, the two are complete opposites. Arackniss has an aversion towards him, insinuating that the relationship between the two is severed.

Angel has previously been depicted as something of a bully towards Arackniss in their younger years, with Arackniss then depicted as violent towards Angel Dust in their later years, in several of Vivziepop's older sketches of the two. However, as the canon of the story around the characters has since changed, it's unclear if these elements remain a part of their relationship.

Molly
Molly is Angel's fraternal twin sister. According to Vivziepop, Angel shares a positive relationship with her.

Valentino
Valentino is Angel Dust's boss at Porn Studios. From the events of the prequel comic, Angel is shown to be rather intimidated being around him and is physically uncomfortable in his presence despite his loyalty to help the boss with jobs but deep down have a strong hatred toward him.

Valentino is also quick to physically mishandle Angel if he doesn't behave. In the Addict music video, Val forces himself onto Angel and is revealed to have raped him at least once, confirming that the relationship is more abusive than previously thought.

The text message conversation with Valentino at the beginning of the pilot shows that Angel was initially attempting to get money for him, possibly explaining his motives for breaking his two weeks of good behavior by getting wrapped up in a turf war.

Cherri Bomb
"You know it, Sugar tits."

- Angel, to Cherri

Angel and Cherri Bomb are very close friends and partners in crime. After having been apart for two weeks since Angel checked into the Hotel, Cherri recruits him to help her fight Sir Pentious, an offer he happily accepts to finally get some "action".

Cherri seems to be one of the few people Angel trusts since he admits to her that he's been missing and been "sort of" clean for two weeks due to staying at the Happy Hotel.

When an Egg Boi was about to shoot them both with a gun, Angel quickly pushes Cherri out of the way and got caught instead, showing how much he cares about her.

With the release of the ADDICT music video, it appears that Cherri is one of the few people Angel is truly close to, as she is seen comforting him as he cries in his room. Cherri, like Angel, also seems to harbor a hatred for Valentino, as she blows up numerous billboards bearing Val's name and face in the video.

Sir Pentious
"Oh, harder daddy."

- Angel, to Sir Pentious

Angel Dust helps Cherri Bomb fight Sir Pentious in the turf war, in which he constantly mocks him with various sex jokes. Sir Pentious mistakes him for his son after misunderstanding Angel's attempt to call him "Daddy".

Angel continues to mock and distrust Sir Pentious as he attempts to redeem himself at the Hotel, feeling bad about Charlie's appreciation of Pentious, before discovering his alliance with Vox.

After agreeing to fully redeem himself, Sir Pentious agreed to live in the Hotel, participating in a trust exercise, in which he begins to befriend Angel after surviving a territorial battle. Despite their friendship, Sir Pentious gets into an argument over Angel's sex tapes. To help Sir Pentious win over Cherri, Angel tells his friend that Sir Pentious has two dicks. Angel was devastated after seeing Pentious' death, recognizing his friend's efforts and honoring his sacrifice after the battle.

Fat Nuggets
Fat Nuggets is Angel's pet pig whom he loves very much. Fat Nuggets can be seen comforting Angel Dust when he was reminiscing about Valentino abusing him, which in return, brings a small smile to Angel's face.

Fat Nuggets is also one of the few people that are truly close to Angel. Angel also loves dressing up Fat Nuggets in little clothes and collars with bows on it.

In "The Show Must Go On", after the Hotel was destroyed, Angel and Cherri quickly search under the rubble to find Fat Nuggets. Once Fat Nuggets was revealed to be safe and unharmed, Angel and Fat Nuggets ran toward each other and Angel joyfully and lovingly hugs him in his arms.

Travis
"Let me know when you come up with something creative to call me, you pack of poorly packaged horse shit!"

- Angel's comeback to Travis' insult

Travis is a cab driver that Angel considers as a "rando from the street" that he considered offering his service to as to get a quick cash grab. After driving Angel to a nearby drug vending machine, Angel gets complimented for his service and gets called a slut, to which Angel insults him back.

In the ADDICT music video, it is shown that Travis survived the car crash that occurred in the pilot and seems to be one of Angel's regular patrons. Angel don't really care much for Travis since he kicked Travis in the face without looking.
