when gabriel has sex with jade aka amatiel (if thats how its spelled) who was an angel, is he essentially having sex with his sister? when that sequence of events happened in the movie i was just not ready for it. i was completely shocked. imagine a relationship you have seen as a platonic, sibling relationship for over an hour suddenly turns sexual...lol, it was just jarring in the worst way. and then throughout the movie he refers to the angels as brothers and kin...so what was she then? wasnt she his kin, his sister? there should be rules for certain lore containing creatures like angels, and werewolves and vampires etc. that, among other things, just should be a rule for fiction in general - angels should not be having sex with each other. angels dont have sex with each other and vampires dont sparkle in the sunlight. they die in the sunlight.

Is not incest because she's human, she falls and is not an Arc anymore. Besides they are not blood brother or sisters, it's only a expresion anyway

They were not born of the same flash and blood. They were simply "created," like how man would create a tool, machine, robot, etc. It's not incest.

As for the Twilight complaint, I do admit that the "Sparkle in the sunlight" thing was not that good, but the "not dying in the sunlight" part was. If you've read about the original myths and legends about Vampire, along with reading Vampire fiction that came before the movie Nosferatu, you'd notice that the majority of Vampires can go out in sunlight without being killed or harmed. Three great examples of daywalking Vampires from literature are Dracula, Camilla, and Varney the Vampire, whose existence predated Nosferatu. As you can see from their stories, they weren't harmed nor killed by sunlight and neither were their predecessors. It was only after Count Orlock that Vampires had sunlight as a major weakness.
