————
Lucifer:
he texts you saying you need to come to his study to talk
you ask if you can have a few minutes
you feel really out of sorts and want to gather your bearings before going in
he says it’s urgent and makes you come in right now
you go in immediately on the verge of tears and sit down with him
he has a bit of a tone cause it’s been a rough day but all he wants to know is how your school is going
it comes out of nowhere and you instantly start crying
thinks he’s done something wrong
“are you—did you get upset over something I said?”
when you shake your head no he’s at a complete loss
is this a human thing??
walks over to you and kneels down between your legs, places his warm hands on your knees
wipes your tears away and rubs his thumb across your cheeks
tries to calm you enough so that you can talk about what’s bothering you
even when you’re crying so hard you can barely breathe he manages to stay calm
after a while when you’re calm enough he’ll bring you water and a snack
and will coax you into talking to him about why you’re so upset
Mammon:
since you’re his responsibility he always HAS to know where you are at all times
not at all because he cares about you or anything
so when you lock yourself in the bathroom and yell at him to fuck off through tears he’s stunned
and annoyed
sits on the other side of the bathroom door and waits for you to calm down some
after a few minutes he asks if you’re okay
that’s when you really break down
he listens to you cry through the door and wishes he could do something to help you
he gently coaxes you into letting him in
sits with you and holds your hand
tried talking you down but you’re crying way too hard for that
for some reason carries you to the bathtub and sits with you between his legs???
it’s weirdly comforting and the heat/pressure of his body makes you feel way better
reminds you that everything is going to be okay and you guys are gonna work this out
when you’re finally calm you realize how weird the situation is
“wait did you put me in the bathtub”
“it works for Levi”
Levi:
you’re home early from school thinking no one is home
but Levi is doing schoolwork from home today
it’s been a really tough day so you lay down on the couch for a while and cry
Levi takes his headphones off to give his ears a break and go get food when he hears someone else is home
his first thought is that it’s Lucifer and he’s in trouble
until he sees you sobbing on the couch
he’s not really sure what to do
so he ignores you and goes to get a snack
but then he feels guilty about ignoring you so he comes back
sits on one of the chairs and fumbles with his hands while he figures out what to do
“y/n”
you didn’t even notice he was in the room
you try to hide the fact that you were crying but it doesn’t work that well
Levi isn’t gonna call you out tho he’s much too awkward for that
asks if you want to come play games with him to take your mind off of things
you take him up on his offer and play games
tries to be supportive and let you know you can come to him if you need it
mostly comes out a jumbled stuttered mess but it’s the thought that counts
doesn’t think to give you a hug until you wrap your arms around him
he just awkwardly accepts and pats you on the back
Satan:
hears you late at night when he’s trying to read
doesn’t realize WHAT the noise is, just where it’s coming from
so when he throws open the door and asks you to be quiet only to see your red, tear stained face, he feels like the biggest asshole in the world
apologizes for being so harsh
tries to get you to talk to him but you keep insisting you’re fine and you promise you’ll be quieter
“shhh y/n i don’t care about that now—what’s wrong?”
gets frustrated when you can’t/don’t tell him
you feel it too so you’re hesitant to let him touch you
but when he gives you a hug you melt into his arms
kisses your forehead and talks you down
offers to stay with you until you feel better/can fall asleep
you keep saying it’s okay and he can leave but obviously he doesn’t believe you
cause he’s a great detective
let’s you take what you need from him
but you WILL be having a length discussion about your feelings and your emotional responses when you feel better
it will be painful
Asmo:
catches you after you cried
knows instantly because of the red eyes and the puffy lips
pulls you aside and asks how you’re doing/if you’re okay
him asking just makes you cry again
he knows what to do though
grabs a cold cloth for you to dab your eyes with and sits with you
puts his arm around you and lets you lean on him and cry
doesn’t try to interrogate you or get you to open up—he knows you will when you’re ready
gets you water so you can rehydrate
lots and lots of forehead/top of the head kisses
any sort of gentle touch he can give you he does
and once you’re done crying he’ll help clean you up while you tell him why you were upset
listens very intently too!!
dabbing your eyes with a cold cloth and wiping away your tear stains while reassuring you everything will be okay
also thinks you’re just the CUTEST crier
wants to take a picture of your ‘just cried’ face but respects you if you refuse
Beel:
most emotionally mature of the group tbh
comes in to your room to ask you if you have any snacks
you’re curled up in a ball under the covers so he assumes you’re sleeping
he’s about to leave when he hears sniffling
“y/n, are you awake”
“y-yeah”
can instantly tell you’re upset
he comes and sits at the end of your bed and rubs your back over the blanket
“what’s going on?”
doesn’t force you to talk about it if you don’t want to
also doesn’t force you to come out from under the covers
instead he talks you down from your ledge and is very gentle with you
eventually you do come out and he gives you a big hug
you fall apart in his arms but he holds you until you feel better
even if you end up falling asleep he stays with you
just wants you to feel better (even though he still really wants those snacks)
Belphie:
is wandering the halls at night because he slept all day and now he can’t sleep
hears you crying in your room
is hesitant to go on because he doesn’t know how you’ll react and doesn’t know how to deal with this
paces past your room door at least a dozen times before finally coming in
you’re not even paying attention so you don’t notice he’s there until he sets a gentle hand on your shoulder
“why are you crying?”
in classic y/n fashion you instantly start crying harder
belphie thinks he upset you by touching you so he moves back
but it only makes it worse
doesn’t know what to do but your crying is lowkey annoying
is torn between hugging you or letting you be
decides on giving you an awkward half-hug and then leaving
does NOT expect it when you suddenly cling to him and cry into his shirt
you’re getting it all wet but he doesn’t care
is kinda flustered that you’re so close to him (not that he would ever let it show)
realizes after twenty ish minutes that you’re not crying anymore
you’re not moving at all
you must have fallen asleep from all the crying you’ve done
he can’t just leave you on the floor so obviously he carries you back to bed
but what if you wake up and think he left you?
it’s probably better if he stays with you…
