Thinking about Glenn going to Hell after ep66. Dropping in at the gates and doing the same walk down the circles the teens did however many years later. Sure you're supposed to be assigned a circle but Glenn's a man who loves his vices, right? He gets waved through with a vague take your pick...
Is he tempted? Does every circle remind him of a different way he let Nick down? Of every time he put himself first. Stay here, we have everything you've ever craved. It would be so easy to. Just. Stop. Aren't you tired? But Nick is here somewhere. And he's still not Glenn's Nick, not really, but there was that flicker of recognition and Glenn has to know what exactly that means. So he shoves down the temptation and the shame, and keeps going.
Do you think he gets all the way down to Envy and he's outside his old house, but there's an unfamiliar car on the drive?
When he walks into the kitchen he feels like his heart has been ripped open all over again because Morgan and Nick are sat at the table. Not Nicholas, not demon Nick. His Nick. Down to the chipped nail polish and the stupid slit in his eyebrow he always nicked Glenn's razor to redo. And maybe Glenn stumbles towards them just as Jodie walks into the room and asks what's going on. And maybe Nick looks Glenn dead in the eye and says you had your chance and you fucked it, and look how much better it is with you gone.
Do you think Glenn's legs give out the second Jodie shuts the door behind him? How long do you think he sits on the front step listening to the two people he loves most in the world living a better life than he could have ever given them, with the person who took them from him?
Do you think it's more or less painful when he eventually sees the real Nick, who remembers most of both people he's been but isn't quite either of them anymore?
