Stane, some other warning, and then Gabriel had disappeared - Raphael hadn't wasted time in going to Michael and pointing out they needed to go - if it was an escape, then they could retrieve Gabriel.

They just hadn't know the tunnels bore complications.

Balthazar's not sure what his priorities are at this point. Arguing is useless, though, so he only nods. If he has to slip away later, well...better to beg forgiveness than ask permission.

Raphael would argue that not putting their siblings first was what caused all this trouble, it's why he's pushing it now. And perhaps what he needs to do is have an open discussion with his siblings about it, about Chuck's writing, but he can't. It's too big a step. "Good." He patted Balthazar on the back, approving.

That's something they might find agreement on. Balthazar's trouble is that some of the humans (and other species) around are starting to feel as much like--or more like--family than his family does.

That's not something one can say to an archangel. Certainly not to Raphael, nor even to Gabriel, who has more basis for getting the concept. It's something he could doubtless talk to Castiel about, but probably what he'd hear in return would just hurt.

So, he'll nod and smile and tread the line a bit longer, until the inevitable crash and burn, which is likely to be ugly whichever way he falls. But for now he has a pat on the back from a big brother, and it's enough to keep going ahead with. He smiles, and steps into the dark.
