and honestly? it isn't talked about NEARLY enough.
Like- I know all characters, when romanced enough display some kind of possessiveness over MC.. but Diavolo... his possessiveness is treated more as a right he has.. rather than an offer.. This man is the perfect manifestation of pride and envy in one.. especially when it comes to MC
Once you give the big man more attention.. more love.. he almost clings to it.. after all, his extremely lonely past in almost complete isolation.. tied together with this busy life as the prince of Devildom. Having at least someone.. MC.. care for him.. even a little.. and getting to know a side of him he almost completely keeps hidden from others, out of the protection of his ego, as a future ruler - a symbol of strength of Devildom.. its something he just can't let fall into someone else's grip..
As a true demon.. he is able to control his possessiveness - unlike the demon brothers who are new to strong demonic emotions such as possessiveness over things.. however this control - only makes his feelings 1000 times stronger and much harder to deal with...
" Honestly, I'd like to lock you away and keep you for all of eternity "
when Diavolo confesses his strong feelings to you, he really means it.. like really. and coming from his mouth, it was more like a demand - rather than a confession. he's the prince of Devildom for fucks sake.. and to him, in his mess of pride and envious tendencies and desires.. he feels like he, and he alone should have you.
and to be honest? he KNOWS no one has the authority to stop him.. and that only further, strokes his pride..
However, at the bottom of his sinful heart, he knows he can't take it upon himself to do that to you... he respects you so much.. he just hopes you chose him... actually scratch that. he KNOWS you will...
and he will make sure of it.
We throw the silly demon men in the blender because we love them.
Mammon feels betrayed by the younger siblings being taller than him, Beel and Leviathan keep putting things on shelves he cannot reach.
Lucifer kept all the brother's baby photos, including the blurry Satan ones. They are enchanted to be indestructible and if the brothers try to get rid of the album it will reappear on his desk in an hour.
Leviathan does not always summon Lotan, he also throws punches at Mammon, not the others just Mammon since he doesn't want to hurt his younger siblings on accident (he doesn't even try fighting Luci).
Beel accidentally broke all his siblings ribs many times when giving his big brothers hugs. He also has no idea he broke their ribs because they used healing magic immediately so Beel wouldn't notice.
Lucifer's canonically trigger happy with his demon form so everyone keeps getting smacked by his big ass wings that are probably even bigger than what we see in game. He doesn't meant to hit them, it just happens. Happened in heaven too but now the brothers have started biting him in protest (not his wings, just his arms).
Belphegor likes rushing up in front on his brothers when they are doing something and collapsing in front of them to block their path. Laughs when they trip on him.
The cabinets in the living room contain tiny vases so whenever Satan or somebody breaks one, they can magic one of the small ones big and it will be like nothing happened.
During a short amount of time when Mammon wasn't in debt, he bought a restaurant Beel liked. He hasn't touched it, even gave the deed to Lucifer so he literally could not fuck it up due to his greed.
Asmo's social media is watched closely by Leviathan. As a big brother, Leviathan finds it to be his duty to dox all of Asmo's haters. Asmo is aware, but Levi doesn't know that Asmo knows (Satan told him).
Lucifer occasionally lets Satan hit him, usually during a tantrum, as a treat. For the low price of losing a tooth or two (average demons grow those back in minutes), Lucifer can make Satan happy for ten minutes.
Asmodeus, and Mammon take Leviathan out for enrichment once a month, Sometimes Lucifer takes him. Diavolo usually tags along since he also requires social interaction.
Satan's favourite Brother to beat the shit out of is Leviathan. It would be Mammon but Satan saw Mammon angry one time and understood that the second was only being nice when he let Satan, and anyone else really, be mean to him.
Asmo hates doing dishes, he'll trick Mammon into doing them one way or another.
Lucifer's punishments once they fell were really bad compared to now. Lucifer was having a difficult time correcting everyone but he also didn't want to really hurt them so it was actually discussed amongst all the brothers what they were willing to take (there was also some trial and error since they overestimated their own durability most of the time)
Lucifer defended Mammon in public but not even ten minutes later was beating the shit out of him.
Satan cannot control his expression if he is faced with ignorance so Asmo carries around a paper with tape and a smiley face drawn on to smack on his face before he offends the wrong person.
Due to Leviathan speaking in fandom language, the brothers have compiled a book to translate what his words mean.
Sometimes the brothers take bites out of random inanimate objects to see if they actually taste good or if Beel is going through literal torture because of starvation. Even Lucifer licked a wall to see.
The twins sometimes play a game where they sneak up on all the older brothers to see who's the easiest to scare, other than Mammon. Somehow Asmo was able to do a Lucifer and sense them but Satan was kinda jumpy. The most skittish of course (minus Scared-mon) was Leviathan, who screamed like a horror movie girl.
When Belphegor decides to be nice it scares the shit out of everyone. Lucifer thought Belphe was dying and flew him to the nearest hospital.
Hot take but as a fandom we don’t talk about the effects of The Fall enough
Like yeah obviously we talk about the emotional trauma they have from it, but what about the physical trauma??
Lucifer has to stretch his wings everyday so they don’t start hurting halfway through the day, or sometimes walks around in his demon form because its more comfortable + most likely has permanent back pain (and, even then, he FOR SURE doesn’t take care of it the way it should.
Now he is talked about a bit more, but what about his brothers???
We all agree that Mammon wears sunglasses because he has light sensitivity. I’ve seen multiple posts about it and he even mentions struggling to look at the angels because they’re too bright for him, but what about chronic pain? Or maybe struggling to fly because he never had wings before. Lucifer can only do so much when it comes to teaching him, as he struggles to fly with one set of wings missing now. Mammon can fly faster than anything in the Devildom, but it took centuries for him get to that point
What about Levi’s tail bone aching for years when he first fell because his body is adjusting to having a tail? I saw someone mention Devildom children wearing special braces for their wings and tails because it hurts to get used to. Yeah he had to get one made for an adult because it hurt that badly.
Satan was never an angel, but his brothers talking about their happy memories or saying “you wouldn’t know/remember” because he was so angry and was never in the Celestial Realm likely tears him up inside. Not to mention some headcannons about him sharing some of Lucifer’s memories. I like to believe that they are all memories that Lucifer has from his angriest moments. Satan doesn’t have any good memories from Heaven, and only knows what his brothers looked like in pictures.
Now Asmo. I could write a 50 page essay on his character alone, but that’s only the emotional effect of the Celestial Realm AND The Fall.
He likely aches the same as Levi. He never had wings. Sure, having wings was an honor in the Celestial Realm. It showed status. But he didn’t want these wings. They’re ugly and demonic. He wanted the beautiful white wings that his big brother had, and he was so distraught that he tried to rip them off and bleach them.
Eventually, Lucifer banned the products he was using on them in an attempt to get him to stop, so instead he turned to pleasure. He keeps himself busy even if it makes him feel incredibly disgusting later. He can’t help it. It’s his sin.
I like to believe that, while Beel was Muscular when he was an angel, he’s more muscular now. He spent his first few days in the Devildom in a deep depression. He eventually started working out. It was far from healthy, though. He would push himself until he couldn’t stand anymore. He will never forget about how he wasn’t strong enough to save Lilith, and he never wants to fail another person again. Now he’s extremely strong, but it will never be enough for him. No amount of muscle will ever bring Lilith back.
It’s no secret that Belphegor sleeps a lot, but I wonder if it’s more than just being the avatar of sloth. It’s his way of coping with his anger with his father, his grieving over Lilith, and the pain that comes with falling. The physical and emotional pain is so great that he chooses to sleep. Normally, he would go to Lucifer, but he knows that he’s in no position to hold anyone else up. None of them are, and even though he says that he doesn’t love Lucifer, he’s lying. He hates that he overworks himself, and doesn’t want to add to it.
Call me crazy but there’s a reason why the characters mention the brothers being at their worst when the fall happened initially. This doesn’t even touch on the actual wounds that they had to dress. Plus trying to handle their sins? Yeah that was probably AWFUL.
Short Obey Me! skits (idk what to call it, this is just a bunch of unfinished thoughts)
Divider from @saradika-graphics
MC: You wanna make out?
Leviathan: …With tongue?
MC (leaning closer): We can do whatever you want.
Leviathan: You’re scaring me…
MC: I got my first check!
Leviathan: You better hide it.
MC: Why?
Leviathan: Duh, Mammon. He’ll start by asking for $2, and next thing you know, you’re broke.
Mammon (from another room): I don’t need money, asshole!
Beel (walking by, mid-bite): That guy’s a fucking liar.
MC & Levi: Beel?!
Lucifer (without looking up from his book): What’s that behind your back, Satan?
Satan: …Nothing.
Lucifer (turning a page): So if I turn around right now, I won’t see anything?
Satan (mouthing to Belphie): Abort. Take it and run.
Belphie: (grabs the bag of cursed objects and takes off)
Lucifer: …
Satan: Well… technically, there was nothing behind my back when you turned.
MC (raising an eyebrow): Do you need that?
Mammon (offended): Huh? Excuse me?
MC: I said, do you need that.
Mammon (scoffs): Tch—do you?
MC (staring him down): What the hell, Mammon, were you about to fight me?!
Mammon (hands up defensively): What? No! I’d never!
MC (grinning): Right, ‘cause you’re a pussy.
Mammon (instantly): WHAT?!
MC: You know you wouldn’t win against me.
Mammon (offended pride rising): Do you even realize who you’re talkin’ to?!
MC: Yeah, yeah... the “second strongest demon” or whatever. The one I can still beat.
Mammon (pointing): You wanna prove that?!
MC (cracking knuckles): Let’s go then, bitch boy.
Mammon (walking past beel gorging): big back🎶big back🎶
Beelzebub (whipping his head around): HELLO?!
Mammon (staring wide-eyed): Pfftt… I didn’t mean to say that out loud.
Beelzebub: Have you ever had a Krispy Kreme? Have you ever gone to Krispy Kreme?
Lucifer: What is that?
MC: Yeah…
Beelzebub: Was it Krispy?
MC: No?
Beelzebub (disappointed): Right… right
Thank You For Reading!
I'll be posting the next chapters of Therapy With The Brothers soon; I have some written up but not to my liking yet.
MC a lot better than me. If I found out I was supposed to live in a house where no one even rocked with my existence I'd throw a fit and cry. I'd BEG to be put in the purgatory hall with the other exchange students.
I can't remember if it was said as to why we had to stay there or not but yea😭😭
