a/n: so the results from my last post came in and since y’all are interested in my scrapped drabbles and headcanons I present to you all of them, hope you enjoy! all of this contains angst so be warned
the lost unfinished pieces
original concept/ idea: I got barbatos’ RAD uniform in nightbringer and it suddenly made me think of this. This is with the bros and MC who just woke up from their coma thing that happened to them while in thirteens cave. This was supposed to feature more characters and be a bit longer but I never got around to it
You woke up to a familiar feeling plush bed and room, and upon closer inspection you found then realized it was yours.
You hadn’t been in your room much since going back to the past, but to be laying in your bed and in your pajamas nonetheless was enough to make you feel as if everything you’ve experienced for the last few grueling weeks was something striaght out of a bad dream.
You didn’t bother to check your surroundings, instead you fell out of bed and rushed out the door.
You had to see them. You had to make sure they still remembered you.
You had to hear them say “I love you” again.
That’s the only thing that was pushing your tired body down the hall. It didn’t matter if you were too dizzy to walk, you had to hear them say they loved you.
You searched and searched but couldn’t find a single demon, that was until you heard noise coming from the living room.
So you rushed into the room eagerly waiting to see your beloved demons, and there they were, laughing, talking, reading, sleeping, and all.
You knew it was them, you were certain, after all no one else wears their RAD uniforms in such a manner.
You ran over to Lucifer and threw most of your weight on the poor demon, if he hadn’t sensed you, you might’ve actually startled him.
You clung onto the back of his uniform and fell to the floor crying. The first born along with all the others turned around worried as to why you suddenly broke down crying, much less after clinging onto Lucifer.
Lucifer grabbed your face and made you look up at him. He wore a worried expression and looked over your face puzzled. “MC what’s-“
You cut him off and enveloped him in a hug continuing to sob even more. After a few moments you then let go and broke down in front of him.
“I’ve missed you all so much, you won’t believe the torture I had to go through it was horrible, all of you didn’t remember me, as a matter of fact we hadn’t even met yet.”
“I had to listen to all of you call me an attendant and boss me around, and you were even rude to me again and said I wasn’t part of the family. I know you were just trying to protect your brothers, but it still hurt. Plus I had to go through each day without being able to tell any of you I loved you and that I was there for you.
Because if I did you all would then look at me as if I was crazy.
Instead you all acted like you didn’t like me and complained when I didn’t fix a problem. And Diavolo threatened to send me back to the human world, even Luke was rude to me at the beginning”
“I couldn’t hold you all or kiss you all or even recall memories of us together. You don’t know how long I’ve wanted to say I love you, to each of you again” you cried out.
Each brother looked at the other surprised as you continued to babble to Lucifer about things they didn’t understand, the oldest even looked shocked and didn’t know what to do with you.
“MC!” a voice then shouted from behind you.
As you turned to hear who the voice belonged to, you found yourself being pulled away from Lucifer and into Solomon's arms harshly. The Avatar of Pride then glared at the sorcerer who returned his look with a menacing smile.
“Why didn’t you say anything about MC being awake? How long have they been awake?” Solomon said inspecting your body.
“Solomon let me go, I wasn’t finished talking” you yelled struggling in his grasp. “And why didn’t you tell me?”
“Tell you what?” He asked, puzzled.
“That we’re back home” you replied trying to free yourself to reach your demons.
Solomon’s face dropped and he looked down at you then to the brothers who were also equally confused.
“MC I would refrain from saying anything else…” he then said quietly in your ear.
“Because this is still the past.”
Your heart dropped and your eyes widened in shock as you slowly began to face the sorcerer with a look of despair.
“But their RAD uniforms…” you said, gesturing to the seven demons in front of you.
“These are the final designs for the uniform and Diavolo asked if we could try them on today since they just got delivered,” Lucifer replied.
“Is everything alright MC?” Mammon questioned.
All you could do was stare at them with an unreadable expression and then walk away with Solomon without another word.
original idea: this was supposed to feature all the brothers, but Mammon is the only one I was able to think of, then I just gave up lol
You were busy trying to stop Mammon and Levi from fighting about something to do with respect again. Honestly that's all they ever fought about, and each time their words stung deeper than the last. It hurt to hear so you would ignore it, that was until the fights became physical. Then and only then would you have to break it up.
The yelling became more tense between the two as they got in each others faces. So yelling a simple "stay" was directed towards the two demons. However after a second or two of struggling Mammon was able to move and began to yell at Levi again.
Sighing you pushed him out into the hall hoping to calm him down with a few words.
"Mammon enough with the fighting. You're being loud and disturbing everyone inside." You pressed.
Mammon rolled his eyes and looked at you. "He started it! Why am I the one getting punished huh?"
"I'm not punishing you, l'm just trying to talk to you.”
"Listen MC. It's nice you're tryna help and all but this is between Levi and I. You wouldn't understand.” Mammon said, before walking off.
"Mammon" you said softly as he left down the hallway, quite grumpy.
An ache in your chest made you clench it through your shirt. Then something caught your attention, Mammon was able to break free when you used a command.
It couldn't be...not now…
Running to the nearest bathroom you ignored Asmo and Beel as they said hello and threw open the door, then locked it.
Throwing off your shirt you looked to the area right above your heart and stared at the bare skin.
There was no emblem, no small mark, no slightly darker symbol. There was nothing, nothing at all.
Mammon's pact mark was gone.
“There's no way," you said, disbelief filling your voice.
You felt the skin for something, anything, hoping this was just some sick dream. You even tried activating the mark by trying to summon him, but nothing worked.
Because nothing was there.
The pact you had with Mammon was gone. The very first pact you made coming to the Devildom was now gone.
The only source of connection you had to your first man was now severed.
And no amount of clawing or scratching or even bleeding would bring that mark back.
However you tried. You cried and sobbed as you tried to feel for the missing mark. Soon after failed attempts to find it you fell to your knees and held that area, praying that this wasn't true.
Outside the bathroom Asmo and Beel stood looking at each other with a worried expression.
What could have possibly made you so upset?
Somewhere at a much different time a blood curdling wail rang out in the House of Lamentation.
Six demons rushed to the room of the demon in question only to find a trashed room, a broken mirror and the second born livid beyond belief as he clutched his chest.
The six demons unconsciously placed a hand over their beloved mark wondering if they’d be next.
original concept/ idea: supposed to be much longer with comfort provided at the end but I was too upset at him to finish it lmao
“That’s between my brothers and I. Don’t stick your nose into our business just because you happen to be curious.”
Your face froze and you felt your heart drop. He didn’t mention you?
Of course why would he? Lucifer didn’t consider you family, you were just a demon attendant that was there to help them, and most of the time he thought you to be a bother. So for a demon such as you to stick their nose into his brother's business when you’ve barely even known them would set off a red flag in Lucifer’s head.
“We’ve only just met, why are you so insistent on involving yourself in our lives? Don’t tell me it’s because you find us intriguing since we used to be angles” He stated.
“No, I’ve told you already I just want to help you all, you’re important to me, I really don’t have any ulterior motives”
“Enough, I don’t want to hear it. Just head back to Cocytus Hall.
“You know what fine I will, but don’t bother coming to me for assistance when one of your brothers gets hurt down here.” You said slamming the door.
original concept/ idea: this was supposed to be a continuation of it in a long format but I scrapped it after I got an ask with my exact thoughts
Readjusting to life with the brothers was easier said than done.
You tried your hardest to open up your heart as well as your mind to them after coming back to the present. And of course you loved them just like you used to, however something was different now.
There was this wall between you and them that they couldn’t seem to break no matter how hard each of them tried. Sure you were happy and sure you claimed to love them, but it wasn’t the same, you weren’t the same.
“The past changes everyone” is what Solomon had told them.
“Just give them time, I’m sure they’ll come around”
Easy enough for him to say, each brother thought. Solomon was the only one MC would act at ease with. They even went so far as requesting to move in with him and the angles at Purgatory Hall.
Diavolo was still considering your request of moving much to the brothers dismay, but they chose to go with whatever decision you felt most comfortable with, even if they didn’t agree with it. They found themselves not agreeing with many things you did nowadays. For example the fact that you micromanaged most of their activities and tasks throughout the day freaked them out.
You had kept a schedule of what they were supposed to complete along with completing your own work per usual. Oftentimes you offered to even do, or help Lucifer with work you knew he couldn’t finish on his own. It was nice to have a helping hand at first he thought, however after the third or fourth stack of documents he found it worrisome that you were able to complete that many in a short amount of time. Something he even found tiring to do alone.
original concept/ idea: I’m a sucker for MC being distant when they return from the past and the bros being so pissed off about it, I never finished this because I was waisted when i wrote it
It hurt his pride, when Lucifer didn't receive the same amount of pampering and attention he had been used to.
It also hurt when you didn't offer to spend every late night moment you could with him. He wished to go back to your nightly talks in his office while you supported him through piles and piles of paperwork.
He wished to be the center of your attention at large galas and balls again; since he had always been the first one you talked to or danced with.
After not seeing you for such a long time he longed for the same version of you that left that day. Yet that version was nowhere to be found.
The human that had disappeared that dreadful day had come back entirely different.
Not once did he ever blame you for that though.
Instead it was all Solomon's fault.
That sorcerer captured your attention the way he used to, the loving words of encouragement that always were meant for him changed directions and were meant for another. Hearing you speak so boldly of him damaged his pride greatly.
It also hurt like hell when Mammon couldn't pull you away from a conversation with someone like he used to.
In the past you'd follow him without question because the two of you had always been inseparable. Well that was part of it, you always had a bit of a soft side for your first man.
Sometimes it was hard denying him.
But this time was different. He didn't know how to process that slightly annoyed glare you shot him when he tried pulling you away from the witty sorcerer.
Of course he was used to your looks from time to time but this was completely different. You genuinely didn't want to talk to him at the moment.
He had become second to someone for the first time.
Which greatly pissed him off. He was your first, but you weren't acting like it.
However what had really broken him and his ego was when you claimed that him being your first man was just a little joke. After hearing that come out of your mouth he couldn't help but quietly wait to the side until you finished talking to Solomon.
Levi couldn't stand the thought or even the sight of the way you laughed with Solomon.
You had laughed with him like that sure, but your laugh just wasn't the same. Your laugh brought butterflies to his stomach like usual, but did his do the same for yours?
Levi watched the way you gazed as Solomon would go on rants about new spells or potential potions he wanted to try, and admits that he couldn't help but wonder. Did you gaze at him like that when he talked about a new anime or a new game that had just come out?
Then it dawned on him, you did. That look had been reserved for him, and only him. Your wonderful gaze that always watched closely and listened to what he said even when no one else would. That look he loved seeing on your face so much was now reserved for someone else.
His jealousy ran to his core. He couldn't stand sight of the two of you, so much so he decided to avoid you for a while.
But what really pushed him over the edge was the fact that you didn't even notice him distancing himself.
It really pissed off Satan when you didn't go to him for any sort of help.
You needed help reviewing something for a class?
He would offer, but you'd politely decline, then follow up by explaining how Solomon already offered to help you.
He was your study buddy. This was established, it was just the way things were done with you.
But apparently that's not the case anymore.
After coming back you claimed to not need his help mainly because you didn't want to bother him.
But was that really the case?
You were never a bother to him.
He enjoyed those moments with you while you seemed to now enjoy them with Solomon in the exact same spot Satan would tutor you in the library.
When he walked in the library the sight of you two talking and laughing had caught his attention. In a fit of rage and hated he destroyed a wall.
It just wasn't fair at all.
Asmo was much better looking. His sense of style was always something everyone wanted to obtain but couldn't. His hair, face, and accessories always made him stand out above others. Mainly because he was just simply better. He was constantly sought after daily.
But even with all the love he had received there was only one type of love that had mattered to him. And it was the actual true love you showed him when you first arrived.
So why was he having such a hard time trying to get that same love now?
There he was absolutely dazzling yet your gaze was fixed on the sorcerers messy bed hair he got from passing out on his desk for the third time in a row.
You smiled and fixed Solomon's hair as he thanked you, all while Asmo had been trying to get your attention for the past two minutes.
Solomon knew what he was doing.
Asmo knew that's much. After all he knows him better than anyone.
original concept/ idea: so I know so many people write about how the brothers would love MC’s “demon form” in Nightbringer. However what would happen if when you return from the past in that same form instead of loving it they actually hate it, mainly because they knew personally how hard it was to adjust to that form. So to see you in it brings back unsettling memories.
You had never thought much about the horns (that were almost identical to that of a ram), that rested on your head, or the wings or tail that decorated your back.
It was all just for show after all.
You conjured them with magic for your survival in the past. Besides, you needed others to believe you were a demon one way of another, so as they say 'when in Rome do as the Romans do.
Even if the brothers and the others knew you were human Diavolo still suggested you stay disguised due to many demons not knowing, and for your own safety, which of course you agreed.
So in return you became used to looking at this demon version of yourself in the mirror everyday.
It didn't take much magic to change your appearance so you would unconsciously have your horns and other accessories on at all times.
They were used to seeing you in this attire everyday, so why are they freaking out now..?
Why are they giving you shocked expressions and whispering to themselves?
All of them couldn't contain their excitement when Solomon informed them that you were ready to return to the present again. You were finally ready to return to where you belong.
Each of them waited as Solomon appeared after a second, and then finally you appeared as well.
As your figure glowed they made out your human silhouette and sighed with relief, but as the rest of you began to form they soon saw horns and other things adorn your back.
When you finally appeared in front of them they were at a loss for words.
Your hair was worn in a different fashion than they were used to seeing, it looked more formal. Your attire was also different, much different.
You fit right in at the Devildom with your outfit.
When did you get horns..? They each questioned
And lastly were the things that adorned your back.
If they had to assume, this was your demon form?
But why would human such as yourself need to take a form like this?
The Curse Of Living With The Sins
original concept/ idea: living with demons you love is something most would dream of. However one thing that is never shown is the side of them that truly embodies their sin. Like the title suggests it was supposed to feature all the brothers but I could only think of Lucifer and Beel
It's hard to reason with the Avatar of Pride at times because of course, his pride gets in the way of things.
Arguments between him and his siblings aren't usually serious, however if Lucifer has had a particularly bad day then he will be unbearable to reason with.
So if Satan and Belphegor were to upset him via prank or if Mammon received another letter from a bank he would get ready to punish everyone. Sometimes the others don't even deserve it, Lucifer just finds himself needing to take his anger out on others.
He’s never wrong in his eyes. How could someone so perfect such as him be wrong against a human.
He made sure to remind you of that if push came to shove.
Often times during the night it's been harder to get a good nights sleep due to the kitchen being raided by the Avatar of Gluttony.
And with your room being right behind the kitchen it's not so easy to ignore. The sound of opening and closing doors and cabinets can be heard along with the ripping of new cardboard boxes. Beel himself doesn't realize how loud he is until you walk in the kitchen rubbing your eyes.
"Are you hungry too MC? There's still some food in the fridge if you want to share" he responds smiling at you. A cute gesture really but you'd be more appreciative if he just went to bed.
"Beel it's late please go to sleep before you wake anyone else up. Also if you continue to clear out the fridge Satan and Lucifer are sure to get on you about that tomorrow morning"
Reluctantly Beel sighs and finishes eating the last of whatever leftovers were in the fridge.
Then with your guidance walks back to his room for bed.
Finally making it to your own room after cleaning up the mess in the kitchen you are able to lay down comfortably in your own bed. Soon a wave of tiredness washes over you and you find yourself right on the brink of sleep, that is until you hear the fridge door open and shut.
"Damn it Beel" you curse, now sitting up wide awake. Looks like it's going to be another one of those nights, you think opening your door ready to head back to the kitchen.
original concept/ idea: MC isn’t feeling well so they mistake nightbringer satan for their satan
Maybe it was the food Solomon cooked, or possibly all the liquor you had consumed but your head wasn’t in the right place at the moment. What made things even more difficult for you was the fact that Lucifer had called you over to the House of Lamentation because his brothers were causing a ruckus again.
The walk there was horrific on your end. You felt sick and had a major headache. However that never stopped you before, so like always you carried on and made it.
Upon your arrival you saw a few of them destroying the living room, which you put a stop to right away. Sighing, you made them clean up the house and watched as Lucifer scolded them as well.
After everything was done you ended up passing out on the couch in the living room for a couple of hours.
Maybe it was due to the fact that you were placed in a comfortable position when you woke up, or maybe it was the fact that one of Belphie’s favorite blankets was draped over you.
Whatever the case was, you woke up feeling at home.
It took you a minute, but you managed to get up and take the blanket with you to one of the quietest rooms in the house.
You knocked softly once but there was no answer, after the second time you could finally hear shuffling from the other side as the demon made his way towards the door.
Muffled words that sounded quite annoyed could be heard as the door unlocked and opened to reveal the fourth oldest.
“Lucifer if you’re here to nag-…oh…um hello MC” He said slightly confused but somewhat sweet nonetheless. You should’ve paid more attention to his tone before.
You nodded and pushed past him, soon flopping down onto his bed and making a comfortable spot for yourself in his blankets, while Belphie’s blanket got mixed with the rest.
The blond shot you a confused look that you paid no attention to. Once you had finally found a comfortable spot you looked at him and motioned for him to join you, which in turn made Satan greatly surprised. He reluctantly took a seat on the edge of the bed gazing down at you.
“I’ve always loved how comfortable your pillows were,” you said softly after a few minutes of comfortable silence.
Satan watched you quietly in response. This was the first time you had laid in his bed with him knowing, so he was slightly confused as to what you were talking about. It took him time to formulate a response but when he finally did you had long fallen asleep wrapped up in his blankets.
Sighing Satan left you and walked over to his favorite chair and resumed the current book he was reading. Not too long after you had woken up again, much to his surprise.
“What are you reading?” You yawned, rolling over to face him.
“Well it’s called…” before he could even say the name you smiled at the cover. That was the first book in his collection he lent you. It was one of his favorites too, and to be frank it’s what made the two of you so close.
If he hadn’t lent you that book then you wouldn’t have picked up reading discussions with him. Thanks to that the current book he was reading had become one of your favorites.
“I can’t believe you’re reading it again, what’s this now the thirtieth time you’ve read it? I don’t blame you though, I love that book” you replied, giving him a tired smile.
His brows quirked up in confusion. This was the first time he had read this book, however you were saying he had already read it, more than once at that. What was more surprising was the fact that the book had just been published last week. However he said nothing on the matter and gave you a short reply.
You opened your eyes and saw the fourth born laying beside you underneath the blankets. His breathing was soft and he looked so peaceful as his hand held yours.
You moved closer towards him and smiled softly as you placed a kiss on his cheek. Soon after he began to stir and quickly woke up, smiling back at you.
“Good morning” you replied, placing a kiss on his lips. A gesture like this was normal for you both. Whenever you slept with him either one of you would wake the other with a kiss.
But to your surprise he didn’t return the gesture. Instead Satan quickly sat up looking surprised, and flustered. You could tell the blond was trying his best to keep calm.
You furrowed your brows for a second before it dawned on you. This in fact was Satan, but this was not your Satan.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you” you said sitting up as well, trying your best to cover up your embarrassment.
“It’s fine. I was just surprised you kissed me is all” Satan replied after clearing his throat.
“I didn’t mean to. It’s just…” you began to say.
“Just…?” The blonde asked, waiting to hear your answer.
“Forget it, it's not important.” You said, giving him a small smile.
Satan watched you with concern but sighed not wanting to press the topic further. However a question did pop into his head not long after.
That’s all for now! Thanks for reading
