Ever think about how technically the younger brothers are more scared of Mammon than Lucifer?
I swear this is canon, listen
Lucifer's sadistic. He's easily angered, and he always retaliates. And he makes sure his retaliation always takes the form of cruel and unusual punishments. His brothers are scared of the consequences but they're never scared enough to actually stop
Mammon, on the other hand, is a pushover. He doesn't hold grudges, and his bark is so much worse than his bite. He instantly folds if someone aplogises after wronging him, and usually, he'll even apologise back despite not really doing anything wrong. Mammon's usually also part of whatever shenanigans the others are doing
And in spite of all that, the younger brothers all keep pushing and testing Lucifer. They're constantly doing things that they know will piss Lucifer off, and no matter what he does and no matter how much the younger brothers don't want to face the consequences that's never going to stop any of them from continuing whatever they are doing
But with Mammon, in the handful of times we've seen his younger brothers genuinely anger him, they stop or retreat instantly. Hell, there's even a moment in Nightbringer where Belphie is willing to keep pushing against Lucifer but instantly backs down when Mammon gets in-between them and tells him to stop
And y'know what? It's the Strict Teacher vs Fun Teacher thing. The Strict Teacher is always going to be like that, you know exactly what to expect when you piss off the Strict Teacher. Meanwhile, when you finally manage to piss off the Fun Teacher you know you've Fucked Up™

BLM is still a thing. If you don’t reblog this, but would’ve in June/July you were only in support of black lives when it was a trend. They still need justice
I am an isolated trans woman and need help getting to a safe home. My lease ends this month, and thankfully I have a friend who can house me for a while, but first I need to be able to get there! My car needs maintenance that will cost $700 to get in working order. If I cannot get this done before the 28th, I'll be homeless without help.
If you can donate, anything is greatly appreciated, thank you so much.

• It takes getting shot full of arrows and breaking a magic seal to actually take down Lucifer
• Mephistopheles still does not seem to comprehend how or why Lucifer or any demon for that matter would go so far and sacrifice so much for a human.
• The clauderics aren’t just some noble family but the ones in charge of the noble council (the House of Lords) their decision to deny Diavolo’s right to the throne was much more serious than what it was made to sound like in part one and explains why Diavolo’s hand was forced.
• The Stafall is the official place where Lucifer made his vow of loyalty to Diavolo
• Lucifer literally died but the ring of light combined with a miracle from his Father brought him back to life.
• At MC and Lucifer’s wedding, Simeon is bawling his eyes out even before Luke
• Mammon, despite his magic never being shown, took down all five of his younger brothers in an instant—Beelzebub wants a rematch but Levi wants nothing to do with it.
• Mammon and MC’s Magic together was able to seal the God of War Ares Mortalis
• Leviathan suddenly develops the ability to bring anything he writes to life (altering reality) whether he wants to or not
• Solomon engraved the rings for Leviathan and MC’s wedding to seal Leviathan’s reality bending magic so he can continue to write without manipulating everyone
• Leviathan still sleeps in the tub and each night asks MC whether they want to spend it in the bed or the tub.
• Leviathan plans to write an adventure series starring his goldfish Henry 2.0
• Lucifer held onto and fixed the mug that Satan millennia ago had successfully hit him in the face with and gave it to him as a house warming gift.
• Mammon was not trusted handling the delicate flower decorations in Asmodeus’s route and was told he did horribly in Satan’s route.
• The RAD student body was present to watch Asmodeus and MC’s wedding, requested by the principal Mephistopheles for a learning experience.
• Beelzebub’s route is the only one that ends in a cliffhanger after a wedding gift from Solomon sends him and MC to an unknown place
• Beelzebub’s best man was Tiny Fang, his new pet dragon, this was decided by Belphegor
• Belphegor gave up his ability to see his own future to obtain the blessing of the zodiac stone for his engagement ring
• The astronomy tower Belphegor now works at was owned and given to him by Lucifer as a wedding gift.
I reblogged this last month, tagged it, and said “might as well see if it works.” I used this video as a reference to find all the forms that i needed (which is A LOT, especially if you’re a dependent) and sent them through the mail, not really allowing myself to hope.
dude.
$2,714 of medical debt from my top surgery - gone. im shaking this was such a weight on me for 2 years and it fucking worked. what the fuck.
these are a few months old now! i wanted to do raphael and post him with these, but i never really got around to it
SIMEON
He now has high-heeled shoes and a laureal wreath, which i headcanon to be signs of status in the Celestial Realm (he was a seraphim for a loong while, after all. and he is one again. i guess). His cloak is a bit longer, and so are his gloves. I gave him 4 ear piercings and a necklace (and another one around his waist) because jewelry is #awesome.
SOLOMON
⬆my incredible screen-recording of a timelapse
This one is my favourite one so far- probably because my bias for Solomon-- but still. This one is also covered in jewelry and shiny things (big win for noise pollution). I had a lot of problems choosing the colour of his sweater, but ultimately i decided on beige? Black is also a good choice, but i think i considered it too close to celestial realm fashion at the time, and he's supposed to be distinctly human. or something.
LUKE
I recoloured his shirt to black so its more visible, as well as adding a fabric belt to further separate his shirt from his shorts. I removed the little... ties? and knots? on the gold lining of his cloak. He now has white thights, which are barely visible. yay. And there's earrings. because of course.

Solomon: *pleasant smile* Read ‘em and weep. It’s a straight flush.
Asmo: *glares* Ugh, I don’t BELIEVE it! All I needed was the ace of spades!
Satan: *head shake, sigh of defeat* So, Solomon wins again, huh? How many times in a row is that?
Solomon: *grins, happy sparkles* This makes 183 wins for me now.
Asmo: *sighs* Are you using some sort of magic? Like a spell that alters the appearance of the cards in your hand?
Solomon: *pouts* Now, now, I’m not like you demons. I’d appreciate it if you wouldn’t accuse me of behaving like one. I am but a simple human, an innocent lamb.
Satan: *raises brows* I’m surprised you can say that with a straight face, considering you’re the most powerful sorcerer in the history of mankind.
Solomon: *perks up with a sweet smile* Wow, is that really what you think, Satan? I have to say, I’m honoured. *grimace* Still, if Mammon were here, he might have broken up my record-breaking winning streak.
Satan: *chuckles* True. As soon as money is involved, it’s as if a switch flips inside of him. He’ll make sure it ends up his, almost like some sort of superpower.
Asmo: *sighs in annoyance* Mm, you’re right. Strange, considering he’s usually such a dolt.
Solomon: All of you are always putting down Mammon, aren’t you? Shouldn’t you be a bit more respectful? After all, he is your older brother.
Satan: Oh, speaking of Mammon, that reminds me: I heard something interesting from Lucifer.
Solomon: *pouts* So, you’re going to pretend you didn’t hear what I said?
Satan: He said that Chise is trying to make a pact with Mammon, apparently.
Asmo: *gasps, wide-eyed* What? Chise? Make a pact with Mammon?
Asmo: *grins* Are you for real?! That’s hilarious! What else do you know? Time to dish up some details, Satan.
Satan: *smirks* According to Lucifer, Chise has teamed up with Levi. They’re planning on making a deal with Mammon to get what they want. It seems they’re looking for that credit card of his—the one Lucifer confiscated.
Solomon: *perking up, nodding eagerly* I see. So, they plan to pressure him to enter into a pact in exchange for the credit card, then.
Asmo: *concerned head shake* Wait, back up a second. Before we even get to that, there’s a lot to unpack here! What’s all this about Levi teaming up with Chise?! I mean, we’re talking about Levi, the super otaku who never comes out of his room! Is he really capable of working together with a real live person?! Also, how exactly down Lucifer know all this?
Satan: *serious nod* Apparently, Chise spoke to Lucifer directly, trying to figure out where the credit card is.
Asmo: WHAT?!
Solomon: Ahahahahaha!
Asmo: What’s so funny about that?
Solomon: *amused smile* Well, it’s quite the turn of events, now isn’t it? I can’t help but think that Chise really shows a lot of promise.
Satan: *smiles, chuckles* Well, Lucifer must’ve felt the same way, because he said that he gave Chise a hint about the card’s whereabouts.
Asmo: *disbelief* Wait, he actually did that? Wow, he must really have taken a liking to Chise. Do you think Mammon will agree to a pact if it means he gets his credit card back?
Satan: Yep. Though he’ll likely throw quite the tantrum over it first.
Asmo: *puzzled* Why is it that all of you act like entering into a pact is this huge thing? I mean, making a pact with a human isn’t actually such a big deal. *smiles, giggling* Take Solomon and me, for example. We’re in a pact together already, right? …Oh yeah, and he’s got one with Barbatos, too.
Solomon: *secretive smile* Yes. I’ve been very fortunate.
Satan: I’d say you and Barbatos are part of a small minority in that regard. Generally demons are very proud folk, after all.
Solomon: *delighted* Regardless, I can’t afford to be complacent, can I? Otherwise, Chise might beat me to the punch and force a pact with Lucifer before I can.
Satan: *amused* You say that, but you don’t seem the least bit concerned to me.
Asmo: *giggles* I wouldn’t read too much into that. It’s just the way Solomon is.
Solomon: I’m not in any particular rush, no. But I am very interested to see where this is going. I’m shocked enough that Lucifer is showing interest in someone besidesDiavolo, much less a human.
Satan: *laughs* Guess he’s added a new favourite person to his list to go along with Mammon.
Asmo: Ah, speaking of how much Lucifer loves Mammon, I seem to remember something sort of like this happening once before.
------------------------------------------
Side Lesson 2-C
------------------------------------------
Asmo: Mammon ended up in trouble with a particularly nasty witch that he owed money to. She was trying to force him into making a pact as payment.
Solomon: *frowns, attentive* So, did Lucifer come and bail him out?
Asmo: *grimace* Nope. The opposite, actually. Lucifer thought it was all very funny. He took the witch’s side and helped her out to the point that she almost succeeded in making the pact. Apparently, Lucifer did actually come to his rescue at the last second, though.
Solomon: *chuckles in amusement* I see. I suppose he’d only do all that for someone he really liked.
Satan: *chuckles too* Actually, I heard something different. From what I was told, there were ten witches, and they were fighting over who got to make a pact with Mammon. That’s when Lucifer showed up. *amused, hearty laughter* He suggested that they cut him up into ten equal pieces and divide him amongst themselves, apparently.
Asmo: *wide-eyed* Hold on, did you say ten pieces?! How could they possible be equal? I mean, if you end up with the head or the butt or something, good for you. But what if you get stuck with just his right leg? That would be awfully disappointing, now wouldn’t it?
Solomon: *raises brows* You think ending up with his butt would be a GOOD thing?
Asmo: *beams, giggling, heart effect* Yes, I do. I love butts!
Satan: *serious* I know another story involving Lucifer and Mammon, actually. Mammon tried to secretly burn a stack of bills by throwing them into the fireplace… *smirks, chuckles* …but Lucifer caught him in the act. He almost decided to throw Mammon into the fires of hell along with his bills and let them burn there together.
Asmo: *giggles* Oh yeah, right…I remember that. Eventually Lucifer let him off the hook after Mammon apologized, and started crying. I’ve actually got a picture of it on my phone somewhere.
Satan: *serious nod* You’ve got to send that to me.
Solomon: *nods* Me too.
Asmo: *grins* All right…and done! You know, speaking of pictures, that reminds me of another Mammon incident. Remember when he tried to take a photo of Lucifer asleep? He wanted a close-up shot of his face.
Solomon: *taken aback, perplexed* A photo of Lucifer asleep? Why would he want something like that?
Asmo: Well, think about it. That would be a super-rare item, wouldn’t it? Apparently he was also planning on selling it at a premium price to the succubi at RAD.
Solomon: *nods* Ah, I see. That probably would turn a nice profit for him, yeah.
Asmo: *sighs* So, Mammon tried following Lucifer around in secret for four straight days, waiting for him to fall asleep. But he never did. Eventually it was Mammon who ran out of gas and nodded off. At which point, Lucifer took a picture of HIM instead.
Satan: *chuckles* Ah, so THAT’S why Lucifer had a picture of Mammon asleep set as his cell phone background for a while there.
Solomon: *fond smile* That’s a nice story. Those two really do love each other, huh?
Satan: *frowns* …You think?
Asmo: *nods* Well, regardless of whether it’s a nice story or not, there’s no arguing that Mammon is one of Lucifer’s favourite demons.
Solomon: *frowns* So, Lucifer has a soft spot for both Mammon and Chise… Which one is more superior?
Asmo: *shrugs* Neither one of them. There is no question that Lucifer is the most marvellous one.
Solomon: *pouts* Well, that’s no fun. I was hoping we could make a friendly wager. But we’d have to actually disagree first. In that case, care to play another hand?
Satan: *scowls* This time I’m going to win. You’ll see.
Asmo: *sighs* Hmm…Satan, I’m beginning to think you’re as much of a masochist as Mammon is.
I think the reason I find Xiao X Aether so appealing is because Xiao doesn't want anything from the Traveler.
Honestly Xiao / Traveler works but I prefer Aether because of his characterization as the softer twin.
Lumine, from what I've seen and what the fandom seems to agree on, is a bit colder and more no nonsense of the two. She does the commissions for a paycheck and rolls her eyes when people randomly approach her with more. She makes her discomfort known but does it anyway because she is a good person who wants to help.
Aether is more of a chronic people pleaser. He'll grin and bear it, saving his snark for whenever he and Paimon are alone because he wasn't other people to see him as anything less than helpful and cooperative.
Enter Xiao. He shows up and doesn't want anything from the Traveler. He's self-sufficient and instead wants to help the Traveler, telling them to speak his name when they're in trouble. The Traveler refuses to take advantage of his offer and instead only calls him for cute, easy tasks (taste testing food).
The Traveler refuses to be a burden; Xiao already suffered enough. So the Traveler is kind, offering small gifts of food and quiet companionship because they care. Xiao never asked for anything but the Traveler gives and gives because that's what they know.
Xiao is easily overwhelmed by this shower of kindness, but they can't stop it. What they can do is attempt to offer kindness in return. Crystalflies to decorate their hair. Answering their call and letting himself be included in whatever the Traveler is up to now. Taste testing food.
But never once does he push. Xiao never asks for anything more than attempts at companionship, but even that is mostly in response to the Traveler always asking if Xiao would like to do something (Teapot lines). Xiao is unobtrusive, quiet. He expects nothing but is so grateful for chances to be around the Traveler after they've broken down their walls bit by bit.
The chasm quest highlights this. Xiao is fine being separated from the others, wanting to keep them at arms length because he himself is a danger with his karmic debt. But the Traveler is there. They are there and hurt. The Traveler that he KNOWS is a self sacrificial fool willing to do anything to save everyone else, but no one will save them.
So Xiao comes, to ensure the safety of the Traveler, the one person who had been nothing but patient and kind to him but that no one else seems to fret over.
And why would they? This is the famous gold haired traveler who had fought dragons and gods alike. They're a legend, unrivaled, peerless. A friend to the archons. A master swordsman. They see the Traveler as untouchable.
Just like the Yaksha.
Xiao understands what it's like to bear the burdens of this world. He understands what it feels like to be ordered around to solve problems. So he comes and offers himself as the sacrifice in his stead. He isn't asked to. No one wants him to. But if not Xiao, it would have been the Traveler. Xiao does it because he won't ask someone else to bear the burden.
To me, that's what it all boils down to. Both of them just want to help the other, but there are no expectations. No commissions or fights that they ask the other to join. No requests. Just two people who both shoulder a heavy burden finding solace in someone else who understands and asks for nothing.
They aren't the gold haired traveler and the Yaksha.
It's 100% not Sloth. They're very active and hard-working - both mentally and physically.
It's not Pride either, specially considering how blunt they are - how they feel no shame or hesitation when expressing their feelings/emotions/wants. They're not too proud to accept help (though they may hesitate to ask), to do and say what they want, to be as goofy and dumb as they want etc
It's not Greed either as they have no problem lending money to Mammon. And even though they're good at gambling it isn't an often visited activity. And even though they like material items and want money it's in a more general manner than in one associated with Greed.
It's not Envy because they're awfully self-assured and know they can do things or get good at things without being envious of others. They're also highly adaptable to different situations so they won't feel Envious of others while in a new situation. They do feel jealousy over their partner(s) but it's not that regular of an occurrence.
It's not wrath, they're incredibly patient and are able to tolerate most things. When they do get angry, though, it tends to be pretty explosive but it's also very rare and they calm down soon after. They do have a really evil glare though.
MC's level of Lust depends totally on the individual players and their choices and so can't be considered.
Gluttony on the otherhand?
• MC hides sweets in their room.
• They always have food on hand to give Beel.
• They're very good at cooking.
• They're able to eat food from both the Celestial Realm and Devildom with no alterations done to said food, something regular humans can't do.
• Beels notes that they loose weight whenever they come back from the human realm.
• In S4 Levi notes that they tend to pile food at the buffet instead of taking a little and going for seconds
• Beel assumes they'll be able to eat a 20(?) layered sandwich and is in no way suprised if they agree
• In the parfait memory card with Mammon, Asmo & Levi one of the choices the players are given isn't really a choice at all since both boil down to MC saying "can we just eat now"
• In the memory card with Lucifer, Mephisto & Diavolo as compensation for helping Lucifer with his paperwork they ask to get treated to dinner (and no not in "take me on a dinner date" way, it was the not romantic option and was said in a "then buy me food asshole" way)
• They seem to actually enjoy the Devildom's food which all sounds very....um.....yknow
• They were willing to forgive Lucifer trying to purposefully poison them because he offered them Barbatos's cake
• There's another 2 or 3 incidents from recent devilgrams/events I unlocked but I can't remember what they were other than me going "oh! I should add this to the gluttony list!" so y'all are just gonna have to trust me on this one until I find/remember them

my thoughts about the special program are largely incoherent, but I do fucking love this.
the narrative is using one of his biggest character flaws (isolation and avoidance) to trap him inside of it.
he didn’t hug Caelus goodbye when asked, didn’t even say it because it felt too permanent. he didn’t tell anybody how he really felt because it seemed too solidifying, too real. if he joined the story he’d be unable to shrink away from everything he regrets.
and now he walks the literal path of permanence. he’s trapped in a cycle with only himself, not his past incarnation’s mistakes- his own. he has clear memories of everything he did wrong and he sits with that longing for centuries.
Terravox lore mirrors Dan Heng’s past so closely, his splash art resembles the statue in scalegorge waterscape, because he’s meant to parallel Dan Feng in a sense. he’s his own person, this is his own story, but all the same he makes the mistakes of his past incarnations - likely without realizing.
the fact that he’s preservation really does it for me. we’ve seen his actions to follow and protect Caelus and March, which get stronger as they’re motivated by fear.
he started following on expeditions after he saw Caelus’s emotional state post-penacony. on Amphoreus, he noticeably stands closer to us in cutscenes, he was the closest to the basin when the trial of Oronyx was happening and the first to respond when it was over.
he’s had to drag Caelus’s lifeless body to safety twice now. and after this he follows preservation. I’m. so ill.
