Living with the brothers would include...
Okay these are headcanons I have from the brothers and your life in the house of lamentations. I ended up making it sweeter and more wholesome than I expected lol, but I hope you like it!💕

The first week of your stay there it was very common to feel sick or without energy, this is due to the HUGE amount of dark magic that surrounds the house.
And not just any magic, magic from the three elders of the family. Protection magic made to take care not only of the house but also of the youngest members of the family.
It is a routine to see Lucifer walk the halls before everyone goes to sleep. You learned, after asking him why the hell he was so creepily pacing the halls, that he would put up barriers and seal the house in case some idiot, because come on who would ever think of harming the princes of hell, tried to break into the house or hurt his brothers while they were in their most vulnerable states.
Then in the early morning Leviathan patrols the house, just to make sure everyone is okay and that the elder's barriers are working properly.
When it's time to get up you can feel Mammon's magic all around, this gives them not only protection but also good luck before they leave home.
Over time your body got used to this magic protecting you constantly, to such an extent that you could feel when one of them was missing.
At breakfast time it is almost a golden rule that everyone is at the table. If one is missing, no one will touch the food until he appears, not even Beel breaks this rule.
It is quite normal for the food to be too much, but grotesquely too much. In fact all the brothers eat a lot, but of course, not as much as the avatar of gluttony. So there are almost never any leftovers at any meal.
When it's time to go to RAD, Lucifer checks each of his brothers and you. He does this to prevent any dangerous items from being taken to the institution, but in truth, none of them would even think of taking anything like that.
Lucifer and his brothers just want an excuse to look after and be looked after. The eldest usually arranges uniforms and hair of his brothers while waiting to be picked up by Diavolo.
Walking to RAD alone is not an option. You have several options for getting there. First you can go with Mammon and Leviathan (when he decides to go to class), in the second eldest's car. Second you have Satan or Asmo who are usually picked up by their friends. Third you can walk with the twins, or you can travel on Beel's back, who is used to carrying a sleeping Belphie in his arms, and you, believe me, won't weigh an ounce to this giant.
Lucifer is not really an option unless you want to be stuck in administrative and political meetings for at least three hours and be late for class. Plus Lucifer refuses to let you miss your classes so it's a no go.
One thing you will never understand is the sixth sense of location that these guys have because they always, ALWAYS, know the exact location of the rest of their brothers. Although usually if you ask they will refuse to answer you because they know you will be spending time alone with that person you are looking for and of course, they are jealous as fuck lol.
Sometimes you tend to forget that they are brothers and domestic or natural moments in siblings reminds you and helps you understand that it's actually not as different as human families, these moments are:
One of the most common is to hear them yelling at each other from one room to the other, they are not even fighting, they are just asking each other questions or asking for items to be handed to them.
You can always hear Satan and Asmo complaining about the mess some of them leave around the house.
Many times you saw the brothers laughing while blocking the door to another one, who screams and bangs the door insulting until they let him out, usually this is done by Belphie because he is a brat.
It is very common to hear them running and racing to get into the kitchen, snitching on each other to Lucifer or to occupy a space on the couch.
Canonically your room is next to the kitchen, so it is common to hear them at different times of the day fighting over food portions eaten by others, or just talking.
In the first few weeks, you had a hard time adjusting to the size of the house. More than once you opened rooms that led nowhere before you found the right one.
In fact, the house of lamentations has many, many false corridors, rooms and walls, and you can also find several secret rooms if you look hard enough.
Let's talk a little bit about your room, you are lucky to have your own bathroom, everyone does in fact. Can you imagine having to share a bathroom with 7 guys?
It's very common to find the brothers' stuff in your room, your stuff also tends to disappear.
If you do a full cleaning of your room and look in the most remote places you will find all kinds of things belonging to them.
It's no coincidence that they are there, the brothers hide their stuff so your room smells like them in case you want to bring an unknown demon into your bedroom.
You can call it marking territory if you want lol.
Regarding your lost items, let me tell you that once you lose them you will hardly ever find them back, your only hope is to literally cry in front of the brothers while telling them how important that item was to you.
A few days later it will appear in the most obvious place in your room.
The study sessions were more normal than you expected.
Usually someone would ask in the group chat about a class they didn't understand and then everyone would meet in the library, some with the same question, others with a different one.
Satan and Lucifer are the ones who usually teach the rest. There are times when Belphie joins in and explains some things.
If you want to know more about the past of the brothers or if you have some questions about the bible, religion or any subject related to the Celestial realm or the Devildom, that is the best time to collect information and learn more about them.
The brothers seem happy to answer your very human questions. Plus their answers are shocking and revealing to you.
So don't be surprised if you end up leaving the library questioning everything you thought you knew lol.
Something you understood after a while is that meals are very important moments for the brothers, they rarely have breakfast, lunch or dinner separately. It's the best time where you can see them interact and be a relatively normal family.
To be honest, at first it was hard for them to include you in their routines, there have been seven of them since long before you existed and adding an eighth one back to the family table was difficult for everyone.
However, you are now indispensable to the family.
Their lives had completely changed when the exchange program started.
And at first everything felt strange, as if you didn't belong there, as if you were invading a space that didn't belong to you and wasn't meant for you.
Now sitting in that eighth chair felt natural, as if you had always been there. As if that was your place.
Despite being a human, despite having a life far from Devildom, that place, that house and those seven brothers felt more like family to you than probably many of your blood relatives.
The bond you had with them was something you never expected to have with beings so… disliked in your world.
It was so different from what you had heard and learned throughout your life, it was something beautiful that you ended up finding in the most unexpected place.
You had found a place where you belonged. It was almost as natural as breathing for you.
That place is now your home.
