For these two, a direct translation is more complicated. Demone and Angelo are implied to be whispering to someone, most likely in a gambling situation. Demone is saying “matching 2 out of 3 dice is not actually close!”, suggesting that the person shouldn’t consider this a sign that their luck will be better in a future roll, whereas Angelo is saying “just double down and you’ll turn it around on them, of course” while smiling, giving the exact opposite advice. This is playing on the general idea across this reference art that Demone and Angelo’s personalities are the opposite of how they look.

Finally an “explaination” to what should be good and evil incarnate. Basically the angel is actually chaotic good, while the demon is actually lawful evil. Angelo represents the “blissful ignorance” while Demone represents the reasoning often considered malicious by the ignorants.
when you’re so indecisive it applies to your choice of leggings
The love the angel and devil on your shoulder concept of the valmonica archetype, and the fact they each go in the pendulum zones really emphasises it.
