OMG. o_O;;;;

This would explain so f-ing much about his character! Though their usual method of "killing" isn't all that bad, they only employ it because that is how they feed. If you catch them while their not hungry they'll proceed to act like the sadistic psychopaths that they are—snapping necks, playing mind games-like making people countdown to their own fate worse than death(aka permanent possession, after all, a captured "image of an Angel becomes itself an Angel" and seeing it places itself inside your head where it will manifest inside your head, until it takes you over), ripping out vocal cords, reanimating dead people so they can use them as mouthpieces for their eerily politely-worded death threats, etc. And why do these extraordinarily difficult to kill, and incredibly quick-moving creatures do this? "For fun, sir." Add in the fact that it is implied that they are, in fact, sapient ideas which have come to life to kill people, and ideas of them (photos, visual memory) literally can come to life to kill people, and, honestly, the people of the Hometuck universe should count themselves lucky Eridan is as mentally "stable" as he is. Seriously, those things could drive anyone to genocidal madness. Lol, it also explains some of his desperate neediness. He needs another set of eyes in battling the Angelic menace, and is absolutely terrified of the idea that he would have to be left alone to face them on his own because "In the sight of any living thing they literally turn to stone. And you can't kill a stone. 'Course, a stone can't kill you either, but then you turn your head away. Then you blink, and oh, yes it can!" Hell's Bells, this is a f-ing brilliant idea. It'd be awesome if someone turned it into a fanfic. =3
