--- End quote ---
Sure they do. Sonya himself got a second chance from the Archangel Michael and was entrusted with one of the Swords. The bearers of the Swords (it could be argued that they are the mortal vassals of the Angels), give those touched by the Denarians second chances all the time. That's their entire purpose actually, to try and save them.
And as far as whether or not the demon that whispered in Harry's ear was one of The Fallen, i.e. the Denarians...I think it's at least highly likely. They are the only faction of Hell that we have been introduced to. I mean Harry flat out asked Uriel if he meant one of the Fallen, and while I don't recall Uriel's precise answer...he gave a general answer of affirmative. So, barring some as yet unseen faction of the forces of Hell, my money's on the Denarians, simply because they are a known factor, that has a vested interest in Harry on multiple levels.

Don't really see anything there, but *ahem* (points at his sig), I'm not the most unbiased person out there... ;D

Maybe the "love" angle is the wrong way to look at it. Perhaps seeing someone in her earlier state will help her see the error of her ways (or whatever) and straigten up. Like what happened with Harry, teaching someone younger did a lot for him magically, and personally. Perhaps Fitz will play the same roll for Molly to some degree, bring her back to a connection with others by looking out for him.
Personally I don't think Fitz is going to stick around as far as characters go :) I think he was a 1story support character. But if he did stick around it would be neat, I mean he has a LOT of Harry's humor and wit, and sense of Right. I could see Molly responding to that on a base level, and wanting to have him around.
WhoWalksBehind:
Nah no way that she will take on Fitz as an apprentice. She is too young and not even a member of the white council yet, which could be problematic as they want to take her head off.

Harry says it would have to be something like an angel. ANd Uriel answers, "Yes, a fallen one."

--- End quote ---
To be specific:
--- Quote from: Ghost Story HC page 450 ---"Someone like an angel," I said quietly.
"Someone like that," he said, showing his teeth briefly.
--- End quote ---
Then on the next page:
--- Quote from: Ghost Story HC page 451 ---"That...that shadow. It's an angel?"
"It was once," he said, and his voice was gentle––and infinitely sad. "A long, long time ago."
"One of the Fallen," I breathed.
"Yes. Who knew how to lie to you, Harry."

Score one Star Wars reference for the archangel, BTW!
