Non-TF Series Pitch: "Meet Me Halfway (Between Heaven and Hell)"

tldr: a series about an angel girl who wants to commit sin, a demon girl who wants to purge herself of her sin, and a normal dude whose apartment they crashed into. Quirky quasi-romance, drama, and light theology ensues.

Longer version:

Up in heaven, an angel comes to question the eternal paradise she's enveloped in, realizing that what constitutes as "endless happiness" amounts to that only sanctified by the mysterious Big G upstairs. After spending her eternity merely observing humanity from the aether, she's become curious about the "sins" that bind them to their mortal plane, and soon becomes enraptured by the idea of experiencing Earthly delights and desires to know more... and gets kicked out of Heaven in the process.

Down in hell, a demon comes to question the endless perdition she's engrossed in, realizing that being an embodiment of pure sin has made her a prisoner, and no more of a prisoner than Ol' Scratch down below. Wanting a way out, she realizes that there must be a form of redemption in the lands of light above, and has since spent a forever, tooth and claw, to climb her way out of hell, willing to relinquish everything about her 

Back on earth, a normal man has reached a crossroads in his life, but has become too burdened to continue on. Not only is he stuck in a dead-end job, he's just gotten out of a scarring breakup with his childhood friend/former roommate because of his inability to commit to ANYTHING. Wanting something new but too afraid of risk to explore, the least he can do is look for a new roommate to afford the apartment as he p̶r̶o̶c̶r̶a̶s̶t̶i̶n̶a̶t̶e̶s̶ plans his next move.

And then one day on the way to work, the frickin angel crashes onto him after falling from the sky.

She's okay, but he ends up with a few broken bones, and they become acquainted on the way to the hospital (though he gets out later that day). He assumes that she was summoned to him as a new guiding force to steer his life... to which Angel plays along with, because she REALLY needs to get accustomed to being no longer a heavenly deity, and they end up crashing at his place.

Meanwhile, the demon arrives on earth, but after experiencing sincere "happiness" for the first time from the strange mundanity around her, she mistakenly assumes she reached heaven instead. After a series of further misunderstandings, including accidentally stealing money and clothes, she ends up on the run and seeks help from the nearest angel... that being the Angel that had just landed on Earth and is currently now a new roommate for a random dude.

Once they end up in the same room, Demon (who I think I'll just call D from now on, that's a little more natural as a name lol) seeks salvation and refuge from Angel. I imagine the scramble of exchange being like:

And in the chaos, guy's landlord comes-a-knockin', wondering why they're causing all the noise. In the heat of the moment, Guy makes his first real decision in a long time by rolling with the punches, claiming both of the girls have decided to move in, which they too then play along with. However, he immediately realizes the gravity of the situation: he just committed to having a literal angel (who he doesn't know what she has in store for him) and demon (who he also doesn't know what she has in store for him) to live with him for an indeterminate amount of time.

Thus, status quo: Angel is being propped up as a guiding figure to the two, but has all these primal urges she wants to unleash, D still prone to getting herself in trouble but wants to be a better person, and Guy in between having to deal with his future, complicated with this very bizarre supernatural bend.

Few general foundational things I wanna establish:
