#mun's thoughts

I had already had a post about Luci being on the autism spectrum at one point, but I loooost it D:

Here are my thoughts! Once again! They will not be in-depth by any means! ANDDDD this is headcanon, with some canon influence/speculation!!!

Please note that mun themself is autistic!!

So!

Autism is a SPECTRUM. You have people like me, who are super awkward/socially weird/whatever as children, and when we grow up, we learn to compensate for most of it!! Which means that the older we get and the further into adulthood, the better we get at faking being "normal"! I myself work in the field of customer service and have for five whole years, which has taught me to blend in a lot better than before I had this job!! On the other hand, I have other autistic friends who CANNOT COMPENSATE or hide their differences even if they really want to!! The traits on the spectrum vary by A LOT, both in specific traits, and in intensity of the trait!!! As for Lucifer - he'd be a "level 1", which is the "mildest" form of autism! (Please note that autism and intellectual disability are not one in the same.)

Observations I've noticed in the show itself - Lucifer seems uncomfortable and very socially awkward around people he doesn't know, or when having to interact with lots of people. The whole of episode 5 is pretty much him being a socially awkward bb~ He is extremely awkward around the hotel when he first arrives, and he is visibly uncomfortable when Mimsy talks to him. Which kinda very much resonates with my lived experience tbh

Hyperfixations are actually a major part of the autism diagnostic criteria! Lucifer's rubber duck obsession, anyone?? (That said, it can also be a sign of just how bad his depression got.)

Heading more into straight-up headcanon territory - this one ties in with hyperfixation! I write Lucifer in my threads as being very very very prone to getting so very absorbed in his tasks that hours and hour can pass and when he eventually comes out of it, he suddenly realizes he's starving, he's exhausted, he's stiff all over from not moving, etc.

The longer you think on how Geppetto treats BOTH his sons, the creepier it is.

The man emphasizes obedience more than anything whenever you speak to him. It's pretty obvious he's mentally cracked but that seems to be a running theme with him.

Obedience.

That Pinocchio is a 'good boy' for him and does what he's told.

P is, in essence, just a tool to Geppetto. An instrument in the ultimate goal of reviving his real son, Carlo.

But even Carlo is not exempt from this creepy desire for full and perfect obedience by Geppetto.

The ultimate example is the fact that the Nameless Puppet, literally created from Carlo's rotting and mutilated corpse, was bound to the Grand Covenant.

The Grand Covenant that DEMANDS perfect obedience to the 'Creator' The creator being Geppetto.

The revived 'Carlo' is more of a puppet of his father's than the real Carlo or even P ever were.

Because Carlo and P both have agency for themselves, they can make their own choices and make up their minds on what they want and how they feel... NP!Carlo is not allowed that. He is bound to be utterly obedient to Geppetto.

Holy fuck holy jesus i adore this song so much

Continuing my thoughts on how Heaven would view Lucius:

I do think he would be perceived as a threat just by his existence. An AntiChrist is meant to basically sow chaos and destruction upon the Earth, eventually leading it spiraling into the Apocalypse which would likely also spark an all out war between all three realms.

Heaven in the Hellaverse is hypocritical and strives to basically be in control at all times, even if that requires the cost of death and murder to accomplish. They wouldn't even blink at the idea of slaughtering a child if it meant protecting their end goal.

But the deal they struck with Lucifer would come into play here. The boy is Hellborn, technically, he is not totally human nor is he a sinner so he's not on the chopping block.

But you can't convince me that they wouldn't basically tell Lucifer, in no uncertain terms, that if he doesn't keep his son under control and he starts down the path he was born to fulfill... then the protections that deal affords Lucius will become null and void.

Can you imagine the fury and fear on Lucifer's end because of this? The complications this places on how Lucius lives? This idea absolutely fascinates me.

"It was unintentional to be exact" - The green pilot replied back to the mun

// Plas- How does that happen exactly?-

Looking at the mun for a moment, the pilot gently requested - "May I borrow your phone?"

// Uhhhh sure? - handing him the phone -

He took the phone, then he held it horizontally with both hands on both sides of the mun's phone

"So... I was playing a game that was recommended to me. I believe it's Rotaeno?"

He added in as he made a few taps with his covered green thumbs

// Oh the rhythm game that makes you rotate your phone right?

"Mhm!"

// And? How does that relate to knocking somebody o-

Just before the mun was about to finish his words, Spike Plasma made an ultra fast rotation with his hands which ended up throwing the mun's phone through the window's glass.

Then sounds of glass shattering, then car crashing, with people screaming and finally explosions heard from the outside.

"My hands slipped" - The pilot replied back
