Headcanon That The Demons And Angels Don't Have That Instinct When Somethings Wrong.

it's so funny to me when i see pearl-clutching articles about how "teenagers are diagnosing themselves with mental disorders via tiktok" because like. this is not happening in a vacuum. teenagers are severely and i mean severely medically neglected. i cannot stress this enough. teenagers do not have free access to medical care. those same news outlets would be clowning on women with housewife psychosis in the 1950's.

i sometimes go pale when listening to some of what my friends have gone through in their childhoods and teenagehoods. they talk about it so nonchalantly, things that would be considered straight up torture if done to an adult, can't fathom the effect this has on children. they are on multiple anti-psychotics and several antidepressants and anxiety meds now that they are adults. medical neglect has legally and effectively disabled them. a timely diagnosis and intervention could have saved them. of course teenagers are self-diagnosing using tiktok. if your knee-jerk reaction is to scoff at the idea and dismiss it as dumb teenager shit instead of being radicalized because the best shot young people have at attaining the mental health support they need is a fucking dancing videos app, you're categorically a political enemy of the youth.

mutuals do this!!!!

cw: some daddy kink level stuff

Gaz has a soft spot for girls who suffer from oldest sister syndrome. Girls that are a little world weary and too grown up at too young an age from caring for others while not having people to rely on. He just loves how pleasantly surprised you are literally every time he does something helpful that you didn’t ask him to do. Doing the dishes. Spackling that hole from the picture you took down. Refilling the air in the tires. Bleaching the bathtub. Very small things— but you’re so used to being the only one who can stay on top of things. Literally the high he gets from telling you to sit down and relax is unparalleled.

Soap is, quite frankly, into girls who grew up thinking they were ugly. It’s a terribly selfish, but he likes telling you all of the dirty things he thinks of doing to you, how he feels like someone’s knocked him upside the head when you enter a room in a new outfit, how he has to take a cold shower every time you’re going out to some event and he gets to see you dressed up. Honestly, he has to take the cold showers pretty regularly. Seeing how you’re flustered, and you don’t 100% believe the things he says— so he has to put in the time to make you believe him. You’re the kind of girl boys would dare each other to ask out in middle school, and now Soap has the absolute pleasure of convincing you that sometimes you make him so turned on that he thinks he’s about to throw up.

Ghost likes outcast girls. He likes how you eye him with a little bit of suspicion when he chooses to hang around you. He sort of gets this idea in his head that he’s the only one that can handle your eccentricities— handle you. That other people are afraid to approach you but he’s not afraid of anything. That his interest in you is because honestly, he has a much more refined palate than any of the shitheads you’re surrounded by. And you know what? He likes the idea of you as a couple being the scary, freak ass couple. Two lone wolves becoming mates.

Price likes former gifted students. He loves that you’re talented and quick, yes, but he also can’t help but get excited by all of that pressure that’s on you— that you put on yourself. He gets to be the one that relieves it. He’s the one that gets to lavish you in praise, and he’s also the one who gets to pin you down and force you to take it easy for a little while. He loves gently handling any mistakes or missteps, rationally perceived or otherwise. Because he can tell no one’s ever bothered to treat you so gently, have they, sweetheart? They’ve just been content to push you to your limits and have you run yourself ragged because you’re special. You are, he won’t deny it— but you’re also a little thing that hasn’t seen enough nurturing, in his eyes.

König loves so called “high maintenance” girls. Girls with high standards who know what they want, who have gone through some partners that couldn’t take the heat. He gets a very unique sense of control out of it— knowing all of your rules, rituals, likes, dislikes. Like Ghost, he likes thinking of himself as the only person who knows how to handle you— that everyone before him has just been unworthy of you. That he is strong where others have been weak. And you know what? It’s not rotten work. Not to him. Not if it’s you. He’s just built different.

Nikolai… I’m just going to say it. He likes girls with daddy issues. He kinda throws his whole self into relationships at times, and he likes it when he can be your everything. Your love, your friend, your hero, your source of approval from an older man. And he loves a brat. Because he knows you only act that way because someone didn’t pay attention to his special girl in the past. You’re testing him— daring him, unsheathing your claws to see if he’ll flinch and he never will. He’ll endure it all and chip at your defenses until you’re the soft, satisfied, sweet girl he knows you really want to be. Lavishing you with praise and attention, bragging about you to anyone who will listen. He wants you to have a complete breakdown because you’ve been holding it all in and putting up walls for so long that you don’t even know how to cope with being in the arms of someone who will always catch you when you fall.

oh hey!! yall watch out for this shit!!

it’s so dumb ??? like oh yeah, tumblr is totally gonna send an ASK to contact me? 🙄🙄🙄🙄

It’s so toxic

➤ Sin Alignment & Primary and Secondary Sins

Featuring: All Demon Characters (+ OCs)

Content: Worldbuilding headcanons about how demons determine their sins.

a/n: I've mentioned this idea before because it helps my characterization for the demon characters, so here's a more detailed explanation.

SIN ALIGNMENT

Demon children aren’t “born” already aligned with a particular sin and sins aren't assigned either. A demon's sin alignment evolves as they grow up and once they’re fully matured, the sin(s) that guides their behaviour is obvious.

Fully grown demons can usually assume how other demons think or how they'll behave based on their sin. Young demons are inherently more chaotic in comparison because there is no defining sin yet to explain their motivations for certain behaviour. They're unpredictable because they're still trying to figure out their true nature, and it's not a quick or easy process.

Demons don't simply look at a baby demon and say, “That there's a Lust baby.” The family or the demons the child spends the most time with can affect which sins they gravitate towards to a limited degree.

Exposure can impact how a growing demon interacts with sin. A family of Greed demons is more likely to have a child that also grows up to be a Greed demon, but that’s not a guaranteed outcome.

Experience is the last crucial piece that helps young demons discover themselves. A greedy demon child might shift their sin preference to Lust or Envy as they explore new parts of the world that slowly become available to them with age.

The subtleties of their familial relationships, and the things young demons experience/explore as they grow up, can easily disrupt any attempt to pre-determine their sin alignment.

Basically, demon children are hellish little imps that tend to be impulsive and chaotic and unpredictable.

Fallen angels, like the Demon Brothers, are rare exceptions because they are usually prone to specific sin(s) by the time they're cast from the Celestial Realm and become demons.

PRIMARY & SECONDARY SINS

Due to the overlapping nature of many sins, I assign a primary and secondary sin to each demon character—the two strongest sins that resonate within them most. In many cases, demons of the same alignment get along well. There are some obvious exceptions:

— Pride demons with easily bruised egos may end up in petty squabbles, and then they get even more upset they were reduced to such behaviour in the first place. (If they DID engage in stupid fights, it was the other demons' fault, obviously.)

— Wrath demons usually have quick tempers and resort to violence to settle their disputes. Even the ones with deceptively docile demeanors can be unpredictable if something innocuous sets them off.

My characterization shifts slightly depending on the context, but generally speaking, these are the sin alignments I assign them most often (this list isn't exhaustive, there are many possibilities).

CANON DEMONS

Bathin (Current incarnation): His sin alignment hasn't been determined yet because he’s too young. He's childish and immature at times like most growing demons are. There have been moments where he demonstrates extremely manipulative, jealous, or deceitful behaviour. (Best early guesses if you asked Mephisto: Envy, Wrath and/or Sloth.) ↳ Past incarnation sins: Pride/Wrath

The Demon King: Lust/Sloth before Diavolo's birth; Envy/Sloth afterwards
