Jaeliel fails to see what, precisely, is so amusing.
It is, of course, self-evident that her Word is neither powerful nor likely to ever become so. However, it is a worthwhile Word to have. While flavored gelatin candies may not be especially nutritious, they are greatly favored by human children as both culinary treats, as well as edible toys. It is extremely important that children be allowed opportunities to experience both sensory enjoyment and the emotion of anticipation - such subjective experiences can have a profound and beneficial effect on their future psychological development. Also, it is just as important that these emotions be not tainted with such Diabolical sensations as greed or immoderation: compared to, say, a packet of white sugar, a Gummi Bear is clearly a superior method of providing a subjectively pleasant taste experience.
Furthermore, it is not sound doctrine, strategically speaking, to permit the forces of Hell to be unopposed in any facet of human society. As it stands, Haagenti is already in a superior tactical position to promote his own unrealistic attitudes upon a segment of the population not yet experienced enough to note the logical flaws inherent in embracing such a subjective emotion as Gluttony. Jaeliel's mission, then, is clear: by providing a small but constant pressure, she (and others like her) can eventually counteract Haagenti's power by exerting a moderating force on humanity's appetites. Encourage humans while young to care about what they eat, and when adults they will have the mental discipline needed to better resist Gluttony's blandishments.
Needless to say, the Prince of Gluttony will of course attempt to prevent the loss of his power. As his history and personality type has apparently taught him the value of encouraging fear in would-be adversaries, such countermeasures will naturally incorporate methodologies chosen for their shock value. While attempting to cause an Elohite to feel fear (or to cause a Servitor of Children to no longer attend to his, her or its duty) has a extremely low success rate, Jaeliel recognizes that it will be difficult to oppose Haagenti while lodged in his stomach. Therefore, several straightforward precautions are necessary in order to minimize any danger.
The first, of course, is to make certain that her Role (a family dentist) is never involved in missions involving her Word. Second, and almost as necessary, is the need for strong defenses, offenses and mobility. Jaeliel has therefore practiced all three: while this may not prove sufficient to survive an encounter with Haagenti, it does minimize the risk represented by his Servitors. Since receiving her Word, Jaeliel has removed seven Servitors of Gluttony (two permanently) from the corporeal plane.
This has provided an increased reputation among the surviving members of Gluttony's organization: in fact, one captured demon commented that his Prince was now looking forward to seeing whether Jaeliel's Word would affect the taste of her soul. Of course, Jaeliel found this information to be critical in her decision to remove said captive from the Symphony. As a further means of protection, the Elohite petitioned her Archangel to provide her with a variant of the Señor Nuñez relic (said variant providing her with an appearance similar to the one used in her usual missions to strengthen her Word). Christopher, having already demonstrated positive feedback for her actions, showed no hesitation in complying. Jaeliel finds highly bemusing the fact that this disguise remains effective. After all, her usual corporeal form only differs from her usual clandestine one in such immaterial matters as gender, apparent age, height, weight and skin color. The angel is not about to point out the perception problems apparently universal among her enemies, however.
All in all, Jaeliel sees no reason not to state that, objectively speaking, she has sufficiently proven the utility of her Word to Heaven.
Really, she fails to see precisely what is so amusing about all of this.
