Now that we’ve mentioned them…

Do Demon!Clarke and Lexa watch Lucifer?

If so, what would Lexa think?

I think Clarke would love the show, and Lexa would despise it, but still watch it with her for complicated and contradictory reasons lol

Clarke is well aware that Lucifer is just a dramedy type thing. She's met the guy. He's not that charming. He's smarmy. Like the personification of the word 'oily' but in essence form. His voice is smooth but sinister in this entrancing sort of way, and while the show makes it seems sexy and alluring, she knows intimately that it's not. It's more like... being alone in your house at night and suddenly hearing a faint strange noise from the other room. It's that battle to tell yourself it's fine, it's nothing... but your hear still drops for a moment. The hairs in your arms stand up. You coil within the tension in your muscles and that unnerving feeling of suddenly being too aware of your own body. Your own heartbeat.

What he offers is seductive, he himself is not.

Lexa on the other hand? Oof. Imagine Clarke peeking over every few minutes just to find that normally relaxed and carefree face looking at the screen in brittle silence. Eyes flicking all over the screen while her fulls lips pinch down into a hard line; as if constantly biting back a snarl. Seeing every flex and tick of Lexa's jaw at certain parts because, "this is fucking absurd."

And it's not that Lexa would do any of that to like purposefully try to ruin the experience for Clarke, it just is what it is. Her heavy sighs bringing a smile to Clarke's face because she knows Lexa's thought something was particularly stupid. Lexa's monumental scoff the first time Lucifer reveals his pearly white wings, followed by a 5 minute diatribe while the show is paused so Lexa can explain in vehement detail how, no, the little fucker does not have his wings. She watched with her own two eyes as they were torn from his body! That he wouldn't seem so hot if they got a look at the true atrocity he prances about with:

a rancid creation of bones and rotted skin stetched and stitched together to create his perverse imitation of still having "wings".

His 'caring for others' is a laugh. His 'ability to love' is deluded. His walking amongst human—the very beings he warred with his creator over!—a fairytale.

So it would be... complicated. But still happen. Ya know what I mean? Like of course they'd watch it. But there'd be a lot of guffawing at things.

It really doesn't help that nearly every episode would conclude with Lexa grumbling out, "The real one isn't even remotely that charming. Or handsome."

To which Clarke, just being real, has to contend, "Well... supposedly he was the most beautiful—"

"Well in my opinion, he wasn't."

"Yeah but I can't really trust your opinion on this one. You're a lesbian, babe."

"What does that have to do with—Clarke, he's my brother."

"That doesn't really... help your... argument... either..."

The tv would get resoundingly shut off after that 😬

Do you think we could get a sequel to The Only Heaven I’ll be Sent To?

I’m dying to know what they’ve been up to!

I have a whole epilogue in my head of them committing murder together (justified because well Lexa kind of insists that despite both their greater demony natures, they do try to more or less stick to agenda.) It involves Clarke being psychotic and cruel snd taunting, just full crazy eyes and being her true menace self, and Lexa finding that incredibly attractive. Like, more attractive than she probably rightfully should given all the blood splatter and viscera, but... baby horns 🥺

And afterward they just casually go to dinner with Raven and Anya. Because it is just another Thursday evening after all.

The problem is, I actually have to transfer the story out of my brain and onto the page, and im not gonna lie to you, things really seem to fall apart at that step 😔

What are the songs you think suit your fanfics best?

I feel like that post you made for the first scene of The Forever I Let Go with Join Me and that photo was spot on.. but what are your thoughts?

Wow, that’s a really good question.

If I’m being honest, I listen to so much music that my answer is probably going to be a little messy and all over the place genre-wise.. 😂 (I’m probably going to change my answers in the future, lol.)

If we’re talking Wenclair,

Ethel Cain fits A Piece of Me in You the most for me. I even used a quote from one of her songs in chapter three. She’s a little dark, but there’s this kind of melancholic tenderness to her music, and I think it sits right with the story.

As for The Forever I Let Go, it lives somewhere between Join Me and Iris, depending on the scene. And I also like to think So I Could Find My Way playing on Enid’s radio wasn’t random. She really was just trying to find her way..

Now that I think about it, My Immortal could fit too.

And for The Heart’s Glint and the Falsehood, if I’m being real with you, Take Me to Church has been stuck in my head whenever I think about that fic…

Film soundtracks are a whole world on their own. They add so much to both reading and writing. And in general, pretty much Lana Del Rey’s entire discography 🥹

So yeah, this is definitely the kind of question you can spiral into, sorry if the answer is a little messy. But I’m genuinely curious, what songs do you feel fit them?
