Like, how tf do people just talk to eachother so casually- like- are you not constantly worried about saying something wrong bc if you say something wrong they're gonna hate you but actually they already do hate you and they're just pitying you bc you don't have any other friends bc you're a generally unlikable person- and ops you accidentally made them uncomfortable, you're a horrible person and should just never speak to anyone ever again :3
More Lute headcanons from your resident @ask-lute because idk:
She struggles with alexithymia and being detached from her own emotions. This causes her to dive into her work, she avoids her difficulty with emotions by putting all her energy into stuff she's passionate about.
She's a people pleaser, though it's in more subtle ways than just doing stuff for everyone.
She seeks praise and affirmation though she would never admit it. This is why she can't seem imperfect. Her identity is tied to being flawless in the eyes of Heaven.
She was in love with Vaggie. But because she struggles with emotions it caused Lute to grow resentment towards her.
She loved Adam too, but didn't pursue anything serious with him because she knew he wasn't the best at handling her when she needed someone to listen.
Adam and Lute did share intimate and loving moments but they were disguised as a no strings attached deal.
Conversely Vaggie was her emotional support, much like Vaggie is there for Charlie she was absolutely there for Lute. But when she started feeling more for Vaggie, Lute started withdrawing and treating her like an inconvenience.
When Lute says "you were always weak" she is not only referring to the incident with the cannibal child, but the fact that Vaggie was so open with her feelings around her, and Lute couldn't understand her own so she saw any kind of emotional display as weakness.
She overlooked Vaggie sparing sinners before, but because her resentment grew she took the cannibal child as an opportunity to 'deal with her'.
I don't think Lute, herself, would spare anyone, I do think she is that sadistic, but it comes from the inability to process her own issues appropriately. (Not an excuse, just an explanation)
She loves puns, I've said this one before, she thinks they're so bad that she loses her shit over them.
Despite being authoritarian, she enjoys anti-authoritarian music most. Punk and Grunge being her favorites, but she listens to most anything.
Fun fact: when I write a pun on @charliepunningstar as 'in character' like Lucifer or Rosie I actually write it, then imitate the character so I make sure I can get the character's "voice" right.
there is no way to imagine early chaggie's first meeting that isn't at least a little silly
Charlie: "SO! Umm- What's a pretty lady like you doing in a place like this?"
Vaggie: "...." (is in Hell)
Charlie: "....." (princess of Hell)
Charlie: ".....aside from the, damned for all eternity by Heaven for your past actions, thing."
Vaggie: "Nothing much. Meeting pretty demon ladies, I guess?"
Charlie: "Oh who? Is she a friend? Where'd she go??"
Vaggie: "...."
Charlie: "......."
Charlie: "It's me isn't it. I'm the pretty demon lady."
Vaggie: "Sorry."
Charlie: "What? No don't be! I've, I just haven't been called pretty in a while, or talked to anyone who wasn't a living demon plushy, so I'm kinda out of practice with the conversational cues and-"
Vaggie: "Not for that. It's uh.. I've lost lot of blood... I think I'm about to pass out."
Charlie: "-you WHAT!?"
Vaggie: "wha's your name again..?"
Charlie: "I- I didn't say but I'm Charlie WHAT BLEEDING!??!?"
Vaggie: "'s nice meeting you Charlie." (slumps over)
Charlie: (catching her) "Ah! Ahhh!?" (hugging vaggie while frantically shrugging off jacket) "Pretty lady unconscious, the unnamed pretty lady IS unconscious!!!" (wrapping vaggie in jacket like burrito and scooping her up) (RUNS)
Charlie: "EVERYBODY MOVE MOVE MOOOVE! UNCONSCIOUS AND EXANGUINATED PRETTY LADY COMING THROUGH!!!"
This is your oc but mentally I'm counting this as @ask-lute fanart and I absolutely love it and your art style. 馃挏
It makes sense.. However, this path takes you further from overcoming what happened and becoming stronger.
[She stood up, spreading her wings.]
Strong enough to break demons down and avenge Adam.
[She immediately shook her head and covered her mouth with her hand.]
...I mean to heal and start living the happy Heaven's life that every angel deserves. New memories are the best path to healing. By making friends with your soldiers, you surely will find reliable support in them. And with this you can also unite the entire army.
I can't
...I don't want to...get close to them again.
If I get too close again, if I get hurt...like with her then...well it was wrong I shouldn't have.
It always starts as friends and I won't repeat my mistakes.-馃棥
