EVERYONE SHUT UP THEY ARE ON A DATE. Okay so, anyone consider that they bring on the SOFT side of each other? Like, Lute slowly learns to relax around him and Adam learns he can be truthful and open around her. He can cry, scream, be vulnerable and she wouldn’t be disgusted or mad at him for showing ‘weakness’ or be unnerved by his tears. She wouldn’t stay by him no matter what, his best or worst. I LOVE THEM SM <3

Another headcanon, Adam gives Lute gifts. I noticed in the first season Ltue had a golden sword, but in the second season she had a grey and white sword that is more similar in appearance to the other exorcists’ weapons. I think that Adam gave her the golden sword so that she could stick out (and maybe, kind of, match his golden guitar too + excuse to get her gifts). Adam gets her matching things!

it drives me nuts when female characters get softened between seasons or have their difficult edges buffed away, particularly in animation. but NOT LUTE. she's just as uncompromising and full of rage as S1. but now her rage is like. actually bursting at the seams. fuelled by this terrible terrible grief that's eating her alive. with an extra helping of crazed revenge on the side.

and she's allowed to be so messy and VICIOUS in her grief. there's nothing pretty about it AND THAT'S SO IMPORTANT in an era when animators are so often told to make female characters 'appealing' at all times. but not Lute.

she's hissing and spitting and shrieking. she's making weird, contorted faces. her eyes bulge and twitch. she's tearing at her hair. it's hard to watch. it's glorious. 10/10 no notes.

Could this be love?

Honestly, I'm putting this out there more for my own accountability because now that work travels have (hopefully) slowed down (one trip to go in December!!!), I can focus more on my writing and wrap up some stuff!

Apologies for the lack of updates lately. Real life stuff has been incredibly hectic, but the good news is I should have a little more free time coming up so please keep your fingers crossed that the writing gods are good to me!
