#angel x demon dynamic lessgooo

[frozenhi-chews]

I got into a religious theme mood earlier and was thinking about those themes in Spamton and Pancake's relationship. So yeah, cw religious themes. I had fun with this!!

Spamton is the angel. He doesn't see himself as one, and even if he did he's a fallen angel. Pancake is the demon. She sees herself as a demon, and not someone to be redeemed.

Despite that, Spams calls Pancake "angel" despite this. By the time they get married, he called her "Angel" more than her actual name. He sees her as an angel, something holy, something benevolent. Even if she is typically violent, it's a righteous anger in his eyes, purifying the sin from the world (and Pancake plays OFF, she has a completely different view of the word "purify")

Pancake doesn't see that. She sees herself as an unholy demon executing vengeful wrath. She isn't cleansing the world of sin, she's punishing the sinners. Being called "Angel" seems sacrilegious, especially because Spamton is the angel. A fallen angel, yes, but one that can still reclaim his holy nature.

It's kind of that mutual "building each other up" that they do. They both give each other a sense of worth. Pancake being friends with Spamton, protecting him, making him feel wanted and that he's not a burden to her

Spamton letting her know how much he appreciates her, giving her a nickname that means a lot to the both of them, letting her know she's much more than the morally grey crisies she goes through, that she is wanted as well

Pancake is a Lightner, which automatically put her in the "holy and angelic" section of Spamton's mind. It moreso turned into a vengeful, holy and righteous anger, archangel type thing. His own protector. Someone heard his prayers, and sent him an angelic protector.

Also how would Spams feel about himself during this? Unworthy, definitely. He asked and received, and then felt like he actually isn't worthy of this. Another thing where he feels worth, he has to grow and climb over the obstacles where he feels he doesn't have any worth and he can indeed have nice things.

And Pancake herself would eventually learn to accept her role as an angel, forgiving herself in the process. If Spamton, someone she sees as the actual heavenly being, calling her an angel, maybe she can do it too. Accepting love and help from the other. (There's a reason I depicted Spamton with angel wings and a halo and Pancake with devil horns in the Valentine's drawing.)

Spamton's broken angel wings to Pancake's dulled devil's horns. Letting a demon feel worthy, and letting an angel feel holy.

In fact, inserting some I Scammed Death early relationship lore, this man is devoted to her. She's shown how much she trusts him and such, and he in turn practically worships her.

Giving her gifts out of the blue, trying to set up cute dinner dates and going all out (the best he can by some dumpsters anyway), not wanting to burden her by moving in despite the fact she literally told him he could come in and stay and eat the food in thr cupboard and whatnot. He kinda feels unworthy cuz she's a Lightner and that's her place of safety and he doesn't want to intrude on what he kinda sees as a sacred sanctuary.

But despite that, yeah he treats her like a straight-up god. Trying to show that he's worthy of her (despite the fact they're dating)

And Pancake is at first overwhelmed cuz he wasn't this intense before they started dating. Yes he gave a lot of gifts but he's treating it like a sacred offering sometimes. Eventually she sees what he's doing and tells him "yo I'm just Some Person I don't need you to be all worship-y and all that" and he relaxes some. But that pretty much tells her how much worth she has. Like no one's gone out of their way the same way Spamton had just to make her do something as simple as smile or laugh. Through him, she really does see that she's got a lot of worth
