Diavolo - From Eden

Diavolo is far more tragic a figure than anyone in the Devildom knows. The second his mother died giving birth to him, his innocence died screaming while his father held his small body in his arms. All he knew from that point was harshness from the king, who wanted a son that would grow to a strong ruler. He never knew the joys of childish idealism, of discovering his own passions. He was too busy sitting on his father's throne.

But then you came along and yanked him right off the pedestal his father had erected. He expected a rough landing, but instead it was smooth. Your arms were waiting.

When Diavolo looks at you, he sees something familiar, like his mirror years ago, reflecting back a part of himself he thought his father had defeated. His mischievous streak had definitely returned after his father fell into slumber, after all the exchange program is something his father would never have agreed to. But he still didn't quite feel like all of himself was within reach until you were at his side.

Sometimes he, the future king of the Devildom, looks at you and wonders what he did to deserve you. He is a beast that slithered from the depths of Hell, what right does he have to be at your side? At the side of someone who carries such a light with them wherever they go? At the side of someone who makes him feel that maybe his birthright isn't a curse...not if you're there to carry the burden with him.

The lyrics I think resonate with him the most:

Honey, you're familiar like my mirror years ago Idealism sits in prison, chivalry fell on its sword Innocence died screaming, honey, ask me I should know I slithered here from Eden just to sit outside your door Babe, there's something wretched about this Something so precious about this Where to begin Babe, there's something broken about this But I might be hoping about this. Oh, what a sin

Barbatos - Wasteland, Baby!

In his visions, Barbatos has seen just about everything yet to come, seen a fire ending the world, the death of the sun, and yet he still did not anticipate the impact you would have on him. He couldn't have, he believes in retrospect. Not when the first smile you directed at him looked so much better than it had when he foresaw it previously.

After that smile, for the first time in his life, Barbatos did not want to see the future. He did not want to see the outcome to your story. He didn't want to have to witness your shattered body bleeding out onto the cobblestone streets of the Devildom, is what he told himself. But, in truth, he did not want to see you falling in love with someone else. And, even more than that, he did not want to see himself falling in love with you. Because then he would have to admit it. Have to admit that he was already in love with you.

Inevitably, he gave in to his curiosity and looked. He already had a feeling before it was confirmed, but it still made him smile bitterly to know; in every timeline you met, he would inevitably fall for you. But you wouldn't always fall for him, and that was okay. He just hoped you would in this one.

The lyrics I think resonate with him the most:

All the things yet to come are the things that have passed Like the holding of hands, like the breaking of glass Like the bonfire that burns That all words in the fight fell to Wasteland, baby I'm in love, I'm in love with you And I love too, that love soon might end Be known in its aching Shown in the shaking Lately of my wasteland, baby Be still, my indelible friend, you are unbreaking Though quaking, though crazy That's just wasteland, baby And that day that we'll watch the death of the sun To the cloud and the cold and those jeans you have on And you'll gaze unafraid as they sob from the city roofs Wasteland, baby I'm in love, I'm in love with you

Simeon - Talk

Loving someone isn't a sin. No, loving someone isn't a sin. It never has been. But, Simeon is fairly sure that wanting someone the way he wants you is one. Wanting someone as unceasingly, as irrevocably, as he wants you, must be one.

Simeon is an angel; he is supposed to be the embodiment of immediate forgiveness, of hope, of purity...and yet he finds himself breaking all his rules when it comes to you. He cannot forgive Belphegor for almost taking you from him. He came to the Devildom hoping to help the exchange program go smoothly, but now all he can focus on is his dreadful need for you. And he may talk refined, but there is no purity in the way he imagines you.

You once told him that true love was a lost myth to humans; a fairy tale. But he knows it isn't when he looks at you. His every glance, every brush of the fingertips, every kiss to your eyelids is his attempt to show you that. He knows what you have is true love. The human world myths all had to have a basis somewhere; he doesn't mind being relegated to a fairy tale if it means he gets to have you.

The lyrics I think resonate with him the most:

I'd be the dreadful need in the devotee That made him turn around Hey yeah And I'd be the immediate forgiveness In Eurydice Imagine being loved by me I won't deny I've got in my mind now All the things I would do So I try to talk refined For fear that you find out How I'm imagining you I'd be the last shred of truth In the lost myth of true love

Solomon - Work Song

It took a long time for Solomon to begin to fall for you. You were both off having your own adventures in the Devildom, after all. But it seems after you wrangled all the brothers in that you managed to ensnare him as well, and now he understands just why they all adore you.

He used to worry that you wouldn't, couldn't, want him. He was an immortal sorcerer; he'd given up his humanity a long time ago. Wasn't that disgusting to other humans? Wouldn't that disgust you? But he learned very quickly that you would never fret none about what his hands and his body had done before you met. You never once asked him about the wrong he had done in him life previously. Not unless he deigned to tell you on a dark night of his regrets. Even when he admitted atrocities to you, you kissed him so soft and sweet.

Solomon knows now that even the grave will not separate you from each other. You may not be immortal, but he is; no grave could hold his body. No grave could keep him from you. And, should you allow it, he intends to give you the option to stay with him endlessly.
