So, we all been excited to see Hazbin's take on Lucifer. And I'm glad I was 76% right about Luc not really being thrilled about his kingdom.
Lucifer is a fallen angel who gave humanity knowledge and free will. It turned out... sour. So it makes sense that he would be somewhat bitter. But instead of taking his anger out on his subjects, he decides that they can screw each other over for all he cares.
So, yeah. Lucifer, unlike Charlie, don't give a damn about the sinners. He shrugs when he talks about them being in pain since he doesn't think they deserve any help or mercy.
So is it any wonder Hell sucks so much? Their king won't lift a finger to try and make the place bearable. He has an agreement with Heaven that they will spare him and his family whenever there's an extermination but the sinners must flee for their afterlives when the angels arrive. He can even look at the sinners tearing each other apart and laugh about them wasting their free will being awful.
Sure, I can get his disappointment and shame, how it must suck to be in charge of a dumpster fire, getting a crown he didn't ask for. But the sinners are his subjects as well as his responsibility since he was the one who granted them the will to be assholes and psychopaths.
The guy spends more time on designing rubberducks and feeling sorry for himself than Hell's affairs. And his attitude is what estranged his relationship to his daughter since mocking the sinners and saying they don't deserve a chance is mocking what Charlie stands for.
I DONT KNOW WHO HAS REQUESTS OPEN (plus I already spammed like so many different blogs for a lot of requests and I feel bad for requesting more so soon-) BUT IF SOMEONE CAN MAKE A LUCIFER X READER WHERE HES REALLY PROTECTIVE OF HER LIKE ABOVE ID BE VERY HAPPY THANK YOU
until I produced this lil kind of fancomic with a scene from chapter 5 of the fic Of Saints and Sinners by @morningstarwrites (totally go read it, it's awesome)
As a sucker for platonic Radiorose, this interaction has me weak over them. Rosie completely ignoring Alastor's attempts at threatening her because what's he gonna do? Bleat about it?
Like, you're a Cherubim (cause some Cherubs have different roles so you would be way stronger and better than the ones in Helluva Boss) who's been kinda kept from present-day news cause you've been chilling in the Garden of Eden protecting the Tree of Life and training other Cherubs
Then Emily invites you to Charlie's meeting as a council member and you go but you have no idea what this meeting is about so other council members have to constantly be keeping you up to date on what everyone is talking about DURING the meeting
"Ok, so that's Charlie Morningstar-"
"Morningstar?"
"And her girlfriend, Vaggie. An ex-exorcist-"
"An ex-exorc-What??"
"And they're here to prove sinners can be redeemed-"
"Ok...But why is everyone singing???"
"Well-"
"And is that the fucking first man????"
And you'd have to have Hell and Lucifer and Lilith and Eve and Adam all explained to you but all you really hear is that you have a niece that you never knew about
So you go down to Hell just to meet Charlie and see Lucifer. And Charlie gets all excited to have an unfallen angel on their side so she explains the hotel to you but Lucifer would be showing you all his ducks at the exact same time-
Even though you were kept from any news outside of the Garden of Eden to keep you from being unjust, I like to imagine that you have the most Deadpool personality of all time
There is a more symbolic reason behind Alastor's and Lucifer's mutual dislike between each other, in biblical lore the stag is meant to represent Christ while Lucifer is represented by the snake.
