It's not often that the sins just kinda get to hang out so eventually Bee invites them all to her place for a little party with them and their partners if they want to come. This is a mandatory thing if they miss it she WILL make their life a living hell and they know she isn't joking.

So they all show up. Tex is busy on tour with Verosika, Fizz is hanging out with Blitzø, but Lucifer and Lilith end up bringing Alastor. They have fun, they dance, they sing, they drink, they eat, they talk. They all missed each other and they're having a good time.

It takes a lot of alcohol to get the sins drunk but Lilith and Alastor have lower tolerances since they're human. Lilith and Alastor end up half asleep on Lucifer's lap and the party winds down until they're just talking.

Eventually Lucifer says that he really does need to go home and get these two to bed. Lilith claims she's not tired, Alastor claims he's not drunk, the others boo and try and get him to stay and eventually Bee proposes a sleepover. At first they all just kinda laugh it off but with her offer of making breakfast in the morning they just can't say no.

They all fall asleep piled up on the living room floor underneath blankets and a pillow fort. It takes forever for all of them to fall asleep because they can't stop talking and giggling but eventually they do.

Bee wakes them up at like three pm the next day with the best breakfast any of them have ever had, every hangover cure known to man, and a promise (threat) that they'll do this again soon.

He is the Law

Did anyone else find this unsettling? On cue, all five non-Lucifer Sins stood up and backed Satan like his own personal chorus, declaring his law as absolute. Bee doesn't look happy about it. I think Ozzie looks dutiful. Bel wakes up to stand and sing along when I believe she'd been napping.

We saw Fizz beg Ozzie to do something, and Ozzie looked saddened, but he didn't act. Bee and Ozzie rolled their eyes when Satan (according to Viv) told a direct lie, but neither called him out.

On the door, Satan's symbol is directly below Lucifer's, and he seems to have tangible authority over the other Sins. Ozzie and Bee fought back while the trial was still in the air, but the second Satan made his preference clear, no more protests (possibly because they have their own controversial relationships to protect).

It's distinctly different from how Bee, Ozzie, and Mammon interact. Ozzie was very willing to physically fight Mammon for Fizz but won't say a word speaking up against Satan? Mammon openly flirts with copyrighting Lucifer, goads Bee this episode, and mocks Ozzie for loving Fizz, but shows Satan obedience? I wonder how entrenched this behavior actually is and where it comes from (tradition? fear? genuine respect?).

I've seen posts calling out Ozzie for not doing more, but unless/until further information comes out, I wonder what he could've accomplished. Satan is framed as 'the dangerous big boss,' to the extent he has the other Sins reciting an assertion of his authority like kids in a classroom. The whole courtroom is designed to have him his own separate place, with the other Sins very much sidelined. It makes me doubt how much wiggle room the others actually have, and what the consequences are for failing to play their role.

Additionally: I'm curious if this becomes a point of conflict, especially between Ozzie/Fizz and Bee/Vortex. The system, with Satan in charge, would've executed an imp on shaky testimony. That same system spared Stolas, who readily admitted much worse "crimes," because of his status. Notably, Ozzie and Bee are part of this system, and they're sticking to their script, protesting when it's safe but no further, even when it treats 'lesser demons' like their partners as expendable.

After Mammon's threats to Ozzie in 2x07, I wonder if this dynamic relates to how that foreshadowing plays out. If at some point, he'll have to choose between Satan's law and Fizz, and if his seeming friendship with Bee (who's in a similar situation) might be relevant.

I could see it going either way; those two kept quiet here to directly shield themselves and their partners from suspicion, and it's no more complicated than that. Or the way they echoed Satan is an indication there's more to explore in their relationships, and there might be conflict lurking in the future. I'm torn between wanting to see extra layers, and hoping their relationships genuinely are as wholesome as they seem. It'll be something to watch for in Season 3, I suppose.

Beezlebub and Loona tinies!

I painted these two for Furlandia earlier this summer. I loved painting these two at the same time, they were a lovely set of personality and design contrasts.

“Why would the embodiment of lust care about consent, why would the embodiment of gluttony care about self control, why-?”

That is the point, that is literally exactly the point, who else would understand that better than them, who would understand these concepts better than the entities who have seen countless souls destroy themselves and others through their lack of them.

“But then why doesn’t Mammon-?”

Because Mammon has literally decided not to care, he’s never cared about anyone except himself because he’s made the choice not to, Beezie and Ozzie both have people they’ve chosen to care about and that’s precisely why they both choose to care about consent and self-control. They cannot control their nature but they can control their actions.
