How we know for sure that after all the deaths azrael has witnessed that he has not become numb to the plight of humanity?

That although he may try to soothe that when the time comes they are very blunt about it.

You could speculate they only made it scary for her so that their powers would not take her from her body alongside taking Gabriel.

Could be they were never suppose to be able to share the same dream as the dream was the first sign of Azrael softening the death.

Much to consider and so little known.
