my headcanon of lucifer being arospec has a lot of facets to it though one of them admittedly is just. projection lmao. all of my blorbos are aromantic in some way, it makes sense

i don't think that lucifer would ever view love in the traditional sense of amatonormativity, considering the fact that when he was created, the concept of gender, sexuality and relationships had never even existed before.

i think that when lucifer and lilith met, it wasn't at all a romantic attraction specifically that brought them together, though romance may have been a possible feeling they felt, but a sense of kinship, of true understanding where both of them finally found someone who thought the same way they did and instead of rejecting them for it, embraced it.

i 100% agree with you that lucilith would just, not define romance as most of their relationship. a part of me wants to say qpr lucilith but i'm also unsure of how well that would even fit them.

it's very much the circumstances of these two that really pulls it all together. they're so unique, both of them had existed during or at least close to the dawn of all creation. they're one of the firsts!! no one's done this before and no one is there to tell them what the heck is supposed to be going on!! the concept of love was still very new at the time when they fell in love with each other. lilith was the first ever woman, and lucifer was an angel, a creature who existed only to serve in heaven. there was no word for it yet. all they knew was that they felt like they belonged together and that they had never felt this way before.

now early post-Fall lucilith, i do still think their mindsets would be very foreign to the average person's. they don't know much of anything yet at this point in time and so the concepts we are familiar with now, to them, were a little skewed, i suppose.

now! when the first sinners arrive in Hell, that's super interesting to me!!! i think i need to make like, the implications of the first sinners arriving in Hell its own post but i digress,,,,

lucilith to me, would have gained much of their knowledge through 1) heavenly meetings, and 2) the sinners with the latter being their main source. they would have learned so much from them either by way of observation (which sounds much more lucifer-like) or by conversing with them (lilith would be more comfortable with this). they would've learned of culture, new inventions and innovations, marriage, sex, etc.

i imagine that lucilith upon hearing of all the different classifications of love that the humans have made, would be intrigued by them but they could never really find one that really fit for them.

i don't think that stating their relationship as purely romantic is even correct, really. while they are romantic, and are platonic, their love would have no real label that would fit them truly. it just wouldn't work.

i do really like the idea of them marrying as a way to just enjoy themselves also. them learning of the concept of marriage? of having a physical and social way to show others that they love each other? and a party? they're doing it. they probably propose to each other like every valentine's day i will not lie

and the religious implications of marriage as well!! it could be them joyfully mocking heaven in their face by marrying each other. there would be a loving union between an angelic being and a human whether people liked it or not.

lucifer in canon being pan also does make sense to me considering his whole thing about not really growing up with the concept of gender and stuff. i imagine that lilith is quite similar to him as she has the same case going on with her. they can be pan and aro and ace. and more. my critters, i don't control them.
