I haven't posted on here in a little bit but i felt the need to share this bc despite being their own characters with their own stories, a lot of people that i've seen online don't understand why charlie was so trusting of emily.
What we know for certain is that charlie can be naive, she can be a little too quick to get excited, and her ability to find a silver lining in just about anything is her entire thing, right? i've seen so many people (rightfully) question why charlie is so sweet and seemingly innocent after being raised in hell since, what i'd assume as, the dawn of time.
One thing that charlie and emily have in common regardless of the realms they inhabit - they're angels. yes, i know vaggie was an angel before meeting charlie and she wanted to "warn" charlie of them without blowing her cover and got a little 😳 when they connected - i feel like nobody really considers that regardless of how or where charlie was raised, she's still going to think and act like it's her responsibility to look after humans, horrible sinners or not. sera and lucifer aside, i feel like emily didn't look at charlie as just "daughter of the morningstar", the way sera referred to her. emily treats charlie just like a fellow angel bc at the end of the day, she is one and she still cares for the greater good of human souls. i know a lot of chaggie shippers hate on emily just for her kindness towards charlie, but i do think that whatever happens in S2 surrounding emily is going to be similar to redemption within herself. emily seems like the kind of angel to stand in the face of authority if it means doing the right thing, she took charlie's side in front of all of heaven's important figures, i wouldn't discredit that but thats just me.
let me know if you have any other fun theories about the characters !! the hellaverse is my current hyperfixation and i love guessing plot points and theory talk with fellow fans :)
