I've discussed it before, but I think it was a great narrative choice to make Carmilla's murder of the exorcist be for her daughters. It makes it so the angels have no recourse- what else is purer than a mother caring for her children?- and inspires confidence in hell’s kindness over heaven’s.

Because like. They'd feel justified if it was done for literally anything else. Survival for survival isn't a good enough reason for the angels. To bring murder to Heaven means it has to be for good reasons, and they just assume Hell was fucking around or someone did it specifically to spite war- but it wasn't. It was a mom and her two daughters.

And that's not enough for the angels, sure. But it makes a great case for why souls should have second chances. Which is the point of the show.

Kylee gained the glutton trait and aspires to become the Leader of the Pack.

I'm curious how the eggies work tbh. Are they sinners given to Pentious? Did Pentious make them? Did he lay them?

WE ARE SO LUCKY PENTIOUS DOESN'T LISTEN TO HIS BABIES

Considering yesterday he had an angelic spear and a tommy gun pointed at him I'm honestly shocked that Pentious isn't more paranoid.

I wonder how often she came up here to look up at Heaven. Missing it. Yearning for it. Hating it. Spiting it with her continued existence.

Zestial is an interesting Overlord for sure. He doesn't seem openly malicious. Other than a few comments about acid rain, he allows others to mock him to his face and even goes out of his way to comfort Carmilla.

He must be powerful to have lived this long in Hell, but he doesn't strike me as a bad person, really. He's probably the closest thing to kind an Overlord can be.

I wonder if Zestial comes to these very often. Carmilla seems a bit surprised to see him- happy, but surprised.
