A Spark of Hope

Masterpost

I don't know a lot about Angel Lore, but I imagine Lucifer knew Emily when she was pretty young. From there, all she's ever heard about him was the stories about him. So, of course, she's nervous and uncertain on how he'll react.

But Lucifer isn't the person Heaven made him out to be. He sees himself in her, sees how much of her joy that heaven has already stamped out. He knows what it means to Fall. So he offers this girl, who reminds him so much of Charlie, sanctuary. And maybe has her sign adoption papers later lol

Commission me!

Em ends up cast down like Lucifer and gets adopted by the hotel gang.

(Going for a little shorter on this one)

“Why cant the sinners be redeemed?” Emily asked angrily at Sera, practically stomping her foot on the ground. “No one here knows how to get into heaven and one of them did! So why cant we help the rest-” 

“Its not our place!” Sera pinched the bridge of her nose. “We are supposed to keep the balance of Heaven and Hell.” 

“And we’re supposed to do this by exterminating the sinners?” 

“We have to prevent an uprising!” 

Emily growled as she took another step forward. “They arent going to rise against us! Charlie wants to help those that want to do better? Why cant you see that?” 

“Because once you’re a sinner, you cant change.” 

Emily stopped for a moment as she watched Sera start to change and energy start to form around her. A jolt of electricity ran through her as she dropped to her knees, looking up at Sera. “W-what are you doing?” 

“I’m sorry, Emily, but I cant have you asking questions like this any further.” Sera looked away as she opened a portal under her sister. “You have to leave now.” 

“Sera!” Emily felt herself thrown down from heaven, watching as it grew further away. Try all her might, she couldnt stop her descent or make her way back to heaven, feeling her powers fade for a moment as she descended into hell. Then, she felt herself slam into the ground, wincing as she stared up at the sky above her. Her heart felt broken as a few tears ran down her cheeks, feeling alone now that she was cast away. 

Emily picked herself up, catching the sight of black feathers out of the corner of her eye. Her heart nearly stopped when she didnt see her normal white feathers, quickly turning herself to see her wings, carefully feeling them as if she didnt recognize them. Then, she caught her reflection in a nearby window. Her eyes werent as bright of a blue as they had been, the tear-like markings almost the same color as her skin, and her hair darkened to a gray, losing the white that it’d been. 

She finally pulled away from her reflection and started to make her way down the street, picking up into a sprint as she looked for anyone that could help her. Charlie or Vaggie or even Lucifer… all she had to do was get to the hotel and then she would have someone that would believe her. Emily came to a stop as she nearly ran into Vaggie, falling onto her and hugging at her arm. 

“Get off-” Vaggie paused as she looked at Emily, anger turning into concern. “Emily?! What are you doing here?” 

“I-I need… I need help,” Emily practically stuttered out as a few tears escaped her. “I… I cant go back.” 

Vaggie sighed and looked towards the hotel. “Come with me and…. Charlie and I will… we’ll… we’ll find a way to help you.” 

Emily nodded and let go of Vaggie for a moment, wiping a few tears away from her now reddened eyes as she gave a smile to her as she followed to the hotel. “Thank you, I… I owe you.”

Uh oh, I think that Alastor's about to snap. Somebody better grab Lucifer...

Lucifer: Ya know I think I was just being a worrywart! Alastor does seem —

Alastor: VOX?!?!?!?

Lucifer: *groaning* Oh what sweet hell is this?! *goes to see what’s happening and sees Alastor storming out of the hotel* What the hell happened that upset him?

Emily: *shows Lucifer the picture of Verena*

Lucifer: *feels anger brewing* DID ALASTOR SLEEP WITH SOMEONE ELSE?! *turns to Husk* Watch the babies! I’ll be back! *goes to follow Alastor*

Betrayal Beyond Repair pt 3

(Final part of this story, I hope you've all enjoyed it so far. CW mention of rape, violence, and fire)

Emily continued to get used to her new home, it was still hard to accept but she was doing better. Her body had healed up enough for her to start going out. So the group would often spend their outings going shopping. Buying new clothes and things for her room, and in return she would help around the hotel. Cleaning, cooking as well as anything else that needed to be done.

She had done away with her heavenly princess attire by now, dressing in much darker clothes most times. Her halo had disappeared and changed into two small floating horns. The ends of her hair had blackened, as did the color of her forearms to her fingertips, while her wings had disappeared. It took some adjusting but she was starting to enjoy her time with everyone.

It was a late night, Emily had been convinced by Cherri and the others to go to an arcade and bar. They could respect that Emily wasn’t a big drinker but she wasn’t going to pass up on going to an arcade. No one in the bar seemed to notice or care that Emily was there which was good. She spent most of her time playing the games. Of course she tried a drink here or there, but nothing extreme. Just as she sat down with her collection of tickets she could use to buy a soda Cherri sat beside her.

“How ya doing girl? You look like ya havn’ fun!” Emily nodded showing her her bucket of tickets.

“Oh yeah I got a whole lot of these, gonna see if I can get the big plush up there by the end.” “That’s awesome! Ah say, you know Sirpentious right?” Emily nodded as she sipped on her drink.

“How’s he doing by the way? I know its been a bit since ya been up there but, I still wanna know.” “Oh he’s doing great, he told me so much about you, he hardly talks about much else beside you, his inventions and his lil egg boys.” “That’s good, I hope he’s okay now, i know its not easy for him to talk with new people.” “Yeah, honestly if I hadn’t befriended him, I wouldn’t be here. I’d probably be dead, I hope they don’t hurt him.” That made Cherri pause

“Wait what?” Emily smiled sheepishly trying to brush it off.

“Sorry I didn’t mean to get all serious on you, what I meant was he’s a real nice guy.” “No no, back it up, what happened, I know ya got kicked off the cloud n all but, what’s that gotta do with my lil snake?” Emily sighed and explained everything.

“Sirpentious and I became great friends and he’d tell me all about this place, and I’d talk about how I wanted to help with redemption ya know. Of course we’d talk about much more casual things but, Sera didn’t like that I was spending any time around him. He gave me directions on how to get through the pride ring safely for ‘just in case’ purposes….He also told me to tell you that he misses you.” Cherri looked wide eyed at Emily and smiled downing her drink.

“Well they better not hurt him, he ain’t done nothing and neither did you.”

Angel came running over to the girls holding his phone.

“We gotta get outta here now!” “What, why, Angie, what's wrong? Did that freaky moth find ya?” Asked Cherri Nonchalantly, Angel grabbed her by the arm and pulled her off the stool along with emily.

“No, worse. I’ll explain outside but we have to get outta here!” Cherri knew the ex mafia man was serious when he said ‘worse’, hustling out of the bar Angel started going what he knew as the back way.

“We gotta get to the hotel now!” “The fuck is happening, Angie? Why are we going this route?” “Some exorcists are attacking the hotel!” “WHAT!?!” Emily and Cherri yelled out in unison.

“Yeah I got a weird text from Nifty say’n ‘the angels are back for revenge’. She sent me a picture too” He flashed his phone showing a picture of a guild of exorcists turning the place upside down. This had them all hurrying their pace.

“Why in Satan’s left nut sack are they back for? Is it bc lil bug killed their leader and Vaggie cut off that one bitch’s arm?” “I don’t know but it ain’t good!”

The closer they got the louder the noise got and the more worried they became wondering why the exorcists were here. It had only been a few months since their last extermination unless they were doing it early again! When they arrived they went in through the back way since exorcists were most likely blocking the main entrance. The ground shook like a war zone, yelling, crashing, screams, and much more echoed through the lot.

Making their way inside everything was a mess, furniture being thrown left and right or being used as a barricade. Charlie, Alastor and Vaggie seemed to be manning down the fight, more of the angels were down than demons. This didn’t stop Cherri from throwing one of her bombs to grant the three a distraction long enough to regroup. The bomb sent many of the angels flying back. Just out of the corner of her eye Emily saw an exorcist grab Nifty. She didn’t know what did it but something in her snapped. Without a second thought her sword materialized into her hands and she charged! Impaling the angel, right through the stomach. A dark purple aura that erupted into an inferno as she yelled out.

“LET GO OF MY FRIENDS!” The demons in the room looked over in shock, the floating horns grew larger, her eyes turned completely violet, the eye at the center of her chest changed to reflect the fire. Her nails sharpened while her body turned almost ghost-like translucent. Her shirt ripped open revealing a stomach mouth which had multiple sharp teeth. Her screams were that of a banshee. Pulling her sword out of the now dead exorcists she turned to the others who survived the blast and growled out.

“WHO THE FUCK IS NEXT?!”

Many of the angels seemed to back down as she stepped towards them. The only one to approach was Lute, new arm and all.

“Come with us.” The lieutenant demanded, Emily sneered at her, readjusting her grip on her sword.

“Why the fuck would I do that?” “I’ve been sent down here with orders to bring you back. Now come with us.” “From who?” “Sera” “No fucking way I believe that shit, if she wants me that bitch can come down herself.” “Don’t you wanna see your sister? Anyone would jump at the chance for this. She wants to see you,” At first Emily’s eyes softened, she still missed her sister, she missed her old life. She wanted to believe this was her chance.

“Now come on, she’s waiting for you. And I know damn well you don’t really wanna be stuck down here with these freaks. They’ve already infected your mind and we don’t need you falling into their hands anymore than you already have.” This seemed to tick Emily off, she readjusted her grip on her sword as her expression went cold.

“If my sister loved me shouldn’t have put me down here in the first place. And these ‘freaks’ have been much kinder than any of you or the others up in heaven have ever been.” The more she talked the brighter the fire burnered, trails of it slithered towards the silver haired leader making her step back.

“Go tell that traitor that if she wants me back she’d better beg on her knees herself.” Emily finished by holding the tip of her sword towards Lute’s neck. Lute called off the group and they retreated back to the skies once again. As they left Emily began to calm down, going back to her ‘original’ form and looking around at the damage.

“They caused all this trouble just to get me back?” “Yeah they did” Replied Vaggie as she carefully approached, Emily pushed back her hair as the adrenaline began to fade and her emotions mixed.

“I’m so sorry. You guys didn’t need to be dragged into this, you just got this place fixed up.” She apologized, while the others gathered themselves.

“It's alright, you didn’t know they’d do that. But wow I didn’t know you could do that, Em!” Charlie exclaimed proudly, Emily huffed as the fire dimmed and had extinguished itself.

“I didn’t either, something inside me snapped I guess.” Without missing a beat Lucifer came flying in.

“Shit shit! Shit sorry I’m late what the fuck happened, is everyone alright?” His questions flew just as fast as he did.

“We’re mostly alright, dad, a few scratches and cuts but I think we’ll be alright. The exorcists came to bring Emily back. Because she was out with Angel-Dust and Cherri, they thought we were hiding her. Though she managed to scare them all off when she got back.” An angry expression flashed on his face as he grabbed his phone.

“D-dad what are you doing?” Charlie inquired, Lucifer held up a finger gesturing for her to wait. Punching in numbers on the keypad there was a dialing noise and a “What do you want lucifer” Before the king went off.

“Listen here Sera there’s an agreement set in place last time I checked you 1 leave hell borns alone and 2 not vengeance calls. Now why in the fuck did I just come to the hotel a wreck because you put your exorcists up on a seek and destroy mission to get Emily! If you want her to come and get her yourself, you piss poor excuse for a sister!” And with that he hung up, the room was pin drop silent as Lucifer whipped his hand around to fix up the hotel with his magic.

“There, now I should be expecting some news either tomorrow or sometime this week.”

Well he wasn’t wrong as now Emily was getting ready for a meeting in hell only a few days since the storming. She couldn’t shake this feeling in her stomach, was Sera really coming down here to get her back? Why was she doing this? Did she even want to go back? Sure heaven was her original home, the place she had grown up in, and she didn’t know anything else but. What if she didn’t want to leave hell? Sure she’d definitely miss Sirpentious but its obvious he’d know what had happened by now.

“You ready, Em?” Asked Charlie, Emily nodded, grateful she didn’t have to attend this meeting alone even if Lucifer was in charge. Charlie and Vaggie had put in just as much work to help her adjust. She also took the polar bear plush with her, she hardly left without it since it had become a source of comfort for her. Of course it was named peppermint.

Arriving at the castle, Emily wasn’t sure Sera would even show up. Though when the portal from heaven opened in the meeting room she adjusted herself in her seat, hiding peppermint in her lap giving him a gentle squeeze.

“Apologies if I’m late, I had to organize a few things before leaving.” The woman stated softly while taking her seat, another angel beside her as an escort.

“No worries, Sera, glad you could make it.” Replied Lucifer, tipping his hat in acknowledgement.

“Let's get this meeting going shall we, so Sera you sent a group of exorcists down here to bring Emily back. May I ask why?”

“I realized I had made a major mistake and misstep in how I went about things. And I wanted to apologize.” Sera answered hesitantly, Lucifer raised a brow at this and continued his questioning.

“Oh and what would that be?” But Sera couldn’t answer instead she dodged.

“I shouldn’t have done it, and as her sister I’m sorry.” “That’s not what I asked, Sera.” Lucifer stated firmly, he knew she was dodging him and pressed for her true reasoning.

“I think it's only fair for you to fully admit to your wrong doings if you’re trying to ask for forgiveness. You wouldn’t come all this way just for a quick ‘i’m sorry’, and I’m sure you know what you’ve done.” The high Seraphim shifted in her seat clearing her throat, nodding.

“R-right of course, ahem. I shouldn’t have gone through your room and your journal nor should I have accused you of endangering heaven’s people, E-Emiliana. It was wrong, I’m deeply sorry.” Emily’s lips pressed into a thin line, Sera hardly used her full name, the only one who was ever allowed to use it was God. She never let anyone else call her that and Sera knew that. There was a hint of insincerity in her voice almost as if she had rehearsed this.

“What’s wrong Emily?” “Sera….why are you really apologizing?” Sera seemed taken aback by Emily’s sharp tone, her eyes narrowed as if she’d burn a hole into her soul. A nervous sounding chuckle came from Sera.

“Wh-what do you mean, I-” “Are you truly sorry for what you put me through or are you doing this to save face?” Emily interrupted coldly.

“No no, I really am sorry, Emily, please I-I know what I did was-was a little extreme-” “A little?!” Everyone in the room jolted at the young seraphim’s abrupt exclaims.

“You chained me in the meeting room while you refused to listen to me, denounced our relationship, and allowed for the others to assault me out of heaven. Do you have any idea what they did to me before they tossed me down like trash?”

“W-we didn’t want you trying to make your way back up, I didn’t think they’d go so far-”

“Of course you didn’t think Sera, you take all of the responsibility claiming I’m too naive to handle things when I don't even know how things work! I was beaten, stabbed, my clothes were ripped, my wings were mangled, I was touched. By the time it was a miracle a kind overlord found me when he did. I could have died Sera. You left me for dead!” Her hand balled into a fist onto the table as she stood up.

“If you expect me to accept a measly ‘i’m sorry’ from you, then you are painfully mistaken and more of an idiot than I thought you were.”

“Please Emily, didn’t mean for any of it to happen, I didn’t mean any of what I said.” Sera pleaded, reaching out a hand towards Emily. The fallen angel shook her head pulling her hand away and asked.

“I’ll ask again, Seraphiana, are you going to such lengths to give some smidgen of an apology?” As this question came out the violet colored fire began to appear as did the horns from the day prior. Sera leaned back in her seat and the escort angel got in front of her. Charlie contemplated calming Emily but Lucifer shook his head at her and motioned for her and Vaggie to step back in precaution.

“Well. I…” “Out with it.” Emily hissed, almost shaking in anger.

“Calm down my child” A booming voice called out, everyone froze and looked to find the source of the noise.

“Lucifer my son, place your phone on the table, please” Lucifer quickly pulled out his cellphone and placed it on the table confusedly.

“F-Father?” He inquired with a raised brow.

“Yes son, it is I your father. Sorry to intrude in so suddenly and through your phone of all things but, when I got word of this I had to tap in some how.”

“I-its quite alright father, wait…Are you back?”

“Yes I am, sorry for such a long absence, but now that I’m in a better place to hear everything. I will say, "I expect you all in my office at once!” Now everyone one scared.

[thesupernaturalhouse]

So, Emily is just 'missing'in the hazbins fallen au, until after s1 where she is officially fallen

So, over s2 and a little bit after the battle she jsut complains about her head and back hurting and angle obviously makes jokes but it's clear she is in a lot of pain

Eventually she brings it up to lucifer whose like "ohhh yeah, that sounds like what I went through when I fell lol"

Emily just stares trying to calculate everything, she almost regrets all her life choices at the horrible migraine that decided to visit not even 2 minutes later

Basically, the disguise he's used all throughout the years becomes permanent. And she does tneed he roendent naymore....though she still wears it

(Lucifer gives her some pain medication, she'll be fine jsut uncomfortable)

Also be and @sunsetcougar came up withba fallen Emily design of sorts for Emily in the hawkfetahers au andddd it's bring used here

So maybe she gets some star tear marks as well

[finleylivesinthevoid]

Imma have to make this digital.

[valorianknights]

Another Crackship? Yes, Please.

Emily as a fallen angel and she's taking it as well as one can in her situation... But hey! Fallen Seraphim buddies! Poor baby😞

Emily made some cute outfits for Fat Nuggs and an Egg Boi 🥰

I was trying to figure out a different outfit design for her when she's working in the hotel as a "Joy Concierge" and her fallen design.

I don't have the heart to take away her princess sleeve puffs. They're too cute on her. Maybe her eyes only change color when she's upset? Idk.

Emily missed her sister, so Lucifer made her a Sera duck 🦆😭

I was already drawing Emily for a Fallen Angel thing, but then I came across this fic while going through Emily's tag on AO3 and well... Here we are.

I mean I already made one crackship, I may as well support another one!

Thanks to @owlofnonsense for this ship.

If anyone's interested:

[seramilla]

Hmmm after Emily learns the truth about WHO her mothers are, wouldn’t she also want to know how and why they got together? Wouldn’t she want to know the REAL reason behind Carmilla’s fall? And wouldn’t Sera feel obligated to tell her everything (within reason Emily doesn’t have to hear about their love life) because she’s kept Emily in the dark for so long now Sera must face these bright and unbearable realities. Like how she had to hide her pregnancy from the elders. How different Carmilla is from the slander spread by the elders. And Emily notices an unsettling trend with each answer she receives. The elders keep coming back as a point of conflict.

This is slowly turning into a merger with the Homophobic Heaven/Carmilla Fell Later AU, because I am really enthralled with the idea of how Carmilla fell in that timeline, not as a follower of Lucifer, but because she loved Sera so much. These two may eventually be one and the same AU, so just a heads-up if you're noticing a lot of similarities between the two. My brain was already rolling with angsty thoughts of how to describe Carmilla's falling to Emily, and it just came out that way. I may end up making a fic out of this somehow, if I can wrangle the two timelines together and make it make sense. There's just something about Carmilla and/or Sera having a secret daughter, combined with religious guilt and convoluted, angsty confessions of love for their children that gets me in a WAY. Tell me I'm not the only one!

"How did you and Carmilla meet, Mom?"

Emily's been asking a lot of questions lately. That's to be expected -- the very nature of Emily's relationship with Sera has been turned on its head. The younger Seraphim is making up for a lifetime of not knowing how she really fits into Sera's life, and it's the least Sera can do to fill in the blanks for her.

This particular question makes Sera smile a little. She hasn't thought about how she met Carmilla in so long. She has so many fond memories of those times...probably the only truly wonderful, carefree days she's had since Carmilla fell.

"I had just been appointed High Seraphim," Sera says. "It was only me back then. Carmilla was in charge of Heaven's holy arms. They weren't called Exorcists yet...this was before Adam took over, before Lucifer fell...even before the Garden was a place humans could dwell. Carmilla and I were both so young, and I was what you might call...a workaholic. I was stubborn in my ways, and only cared about making Heaven perfect. That's what I was created for. It was a lonely existence."

Emily is listening to Sera with rapt attention. The younger Seraphim has never known Heaven to be without its strict enforcers, without Winners, without all the pomp and circumstance of the nobles and elders who would bring down the proverbial hammer on anyone caught getting out of line.

Sera thinks, things had so much simpler back then. Right had been right, wrong had been wrong, and nuance did not yet exist.

Until Carmilla had taught her differently.

"Carmilla was always a dreamer, like Lucifer. She was also much too smart for her own good. Always inventing things, imagining things...wonderful things, but also things that could kill an angel, if she wasn't careful. That's how we were introduced. She was experimenting with some new contraption she'd built...something she probably shouldn't have been testing so close to a noble's house, if I'm being honest. Some Dominion angel or another who would throw a fit if even one of the flowers in his garden got trampled."

Emily giggles. She knows exactly the types of angels Sera is talking about. The uppercrust of angelic society. The Lord's favorites.

"There was a complaint filed by this particular...individual, and when I arrived to investigate, Carmilla and this gentleman were...having a bit of a spat out in an empty field. It looked like a few punches had been thrown, because they were both covered in scrapes and bruises. The moment I laid eyes on her...I knew she was going to be trouble."

Emiliy gasps. "They did not! Did he hit her?!"

"Oh, I'm sure he did, but you should have seen the other fellow...he was in much worse shape than Carmilla was."

This particular memory sends warm, mushy pangs of fondness directly to Sera's heart. Even though she hadn't thought it at the time...she'd always admired Carmilla's ability to defend herself. To not take any bullshit from anyone for any reason.

"I asked what was going on, and the Dominion complained that this 'ruffian soldier' was experimenting with deadly weapons on his property. When I asked if this was true, Carmilla didn't even attempt to deny it. She made me aware that it wasn't his property, though, and come to find out, she was right. He had tried to remove her by force, and she had retaliated. In the end, both were charged with misdemeanor crimes. Carmilla spent a few days in a jail cell...her sentence would have been longer, but I pulled some strings to get her out early. Heaven's army couldn't be without its commander, after all."

Emily shoots Sera a particular look. Like she knows Sera probably had ulterior motives, that had absolutely nothing to do with Heaven's army, and everything to do with the fact that Sera was fond of Carmilla.

"Uh huh. Suuuuure, I totally buy that excuse. There was no other reason for you to get her out?" Emily quips.

"Well...yes, but I didn't know it at the time! We had just met, and I...I felt sorry for her! It didn't have anything to do with love yet."

"Yet," Emily repeats, grinning like a maniac. "You are so transparent, Se--Mom! It's not even funny!"

Sera rolls her eyes in defeat. "Fine! Yes, something about her was...intriguing, even back then. And as soon as they let her out, she came directly back to me...to thank me, so she said. But...she started coming back every day! And I let her! It was all downhill from there..."

"OoOooOooh! You liiiiiked her!" Emily starts poking into Sera's sides, jibing at her mother to just admit what she's slowly building up to saying anyway. Sera turns toward her and starts jabbing at Emily with her fingers instead. Emily giggles, shouting, "I give! I give!" when Sera won't let up.

Sera smirks. "Now are you going to let me finish?"

"Yes! Just get to it, already!"

"As I was saying..." Sera starts, looking over at Emily to make sure she won't interrupt again. Emily swipes over her lips like she's locking something up tight, and pretends to throw away the key over her shoulder.

"Thank you. As I was saying...Carmilla started coming to visit me every day. At first, it was to thank me with words...then gifts...then invitations to go out on the town. To treat me, she said. I had never once been on a...date, before, even though we never called it that. We would never use those words within earshot of anyone. And before too long...she admitted she had feelings for me, and I didn't know how to respond. I shut her out, denied it, for so long. But she was stubborn. She never gave up on me. And eventually...Heaven, it was probably years, or decades later, after we'd fought and made up about it several times. Eventually, she convinced me that she really loved me...and I had to admit to myself that I loved her back."

Sera pauses for just a moment, reliving the memory in all of its warm, fuzzy details, and then looks over at Emily, who is staring back at her, eyes huge and glossed over, like she's about to cry. She's holding her hand over her mouth, to keep from interrupting again. Sera smiles at her.

But then Sera looks down, at her lap, and braces herself. She knows the tone of her story is about to take a dark, desolate turn...she's readying herself for it, so she can get past these painful memories for her daughter...so her girl will finally know the truth.

"Carmilla and I loved each other very much. I felt guilty about it, at first. Heaven had always taught me that same-sex relationships were dirty, and wrong, and sinful...but over time, she taught me there was nothing remotely wrong with what we had. And I believed her. How could there be anything dirty about us loving each other with everything we had, heart, body, and soul?"

Sera pauses again. Things are about to go south pretty quickly, and she's readying herself, and Emily for it -- for real, this time.

"We had...well, we did things that people in love do. It went on like that for years. Maybe we got cocky, or weren't careful enough, thinking we would never get caught. But someone must have seen us, at some point...or put two and two together. They never implicated me in the act...but someone told the elders Carmilla had a female lover. They took her into custody immediately. They did...so many horrible things to her. Tortured her. I begged with her to come clean, and just tell them it was me, and maybe I could get us both a lesser sentence for cooperation or good behavior. But she wouldn't have any of it."

Sera is the one crying now. Toward the end of that last statement, her voice wavers, and tears start falling down her face in rivers. The old wounds in her heart are slowly being ripped open again at the telling of this story, bleeding anew. She does her best to keep it together, for Emily. But reliving these memories is not easy for her, no matter how much she wants Emily to know.

"They gave her a sham trial. Everyone knew the result before it ended. Lucifer had fallen not long before this, so I knew what was coming before it happened. I watched them...I watched them push her. She fell, right over the edge, like she was nothing. She was my everything. They made an example of her...a spectacle of her. Just like they did with Lucifer and his followers. And right before she went down, she told me she loved me one last time. And then she was gone. And somehow, that made it so much worse."

Sera is actually sobbing now. Crying ugly, wet tears into her hands, trying to keep Emily from seeing, so she doesn't have to watch her mother break down in front of her. Emily rushes toward her, hugging Sera tightly around her shoulders. Sera leans into the smaller angel, letting Emily carry some of her weight...along with the weight of her sorrow and pain, that she's been keeping to herself for all these years.

When she's managed to calm down a bit, Sera continues her story. The next part is much happier...as happy as it could be possibly be, at least, after having just watched her partner receive a fate worse than death.

"What made it so much worse was that the same day that she fell, I found out I was pregnant with you. I had just lost my love, my light, my reason for being...and suddenly I had to find new purpose again, in order to keep you safe, and hidden. I hid away for a while, as best I could, and kept you a secret from the elders until you were born. I claimed that I'd commissioned you, from the same place that I was forged, because with all the new Winners entering Heaven, I needed an assistant. They were so gullible, never imagining I would double-cross them like that. So I raised you as my sister...as my heir. And that's how we wound up here."

Emily has been sitting in silence for a long while by this point, and she continues to be silent, in heavy contemplation, for several moments after Sera concludes her story. Sera reaches over, and rubs her hand against Emily's face. Emily looks up at her, and then holds Sera's hand against her cheek to ground herself.

"Thank you for telling me all this," Emily says, voice a mournful and somber timbre, like she's been reliving all these moments right along with Sera. "I'm sorry for making you...have to recount all those painful moments. But I understand now, why you did what you did. I'm so sorry you had to go through that, Mom. I can't even begin to imagine how awful that was. I love you so much."

Emily starts to cry then, too, and Sera pulls her into her arms, and they just sit and hold each other for a while, and cry together, mother and daughter.

"I care about you so much, my love," Sera says. "You were the reason I held on for so long. You are my everything now, Emily, in her absence. You saved me. I could never imagine my life without you in it."

Broken Promises

Masterpost

Exploring the aftermath of Vaggie's reveal a bit more. In the show they didn't have time to do this in a lot of detail, but I wanted to here. This is kinda my own take on Vaggie. The wounds she has are deep and she's been trying to reteach herself a lot. I think Lucifer would understand that...

As for the attacking hellborn thing... I have circumstantial evidence. If I'm not mistaken, Vivzie has confirmed that sinners can't copulate in hell, nor do any children get sent to hell. Vaggie spared what looked to be a cannibal child... She was following the rules and she was punished anyways.

Commission me!

Emily, how are you holding up, hun? That Valor guy didn't deserve you. You're too sweet to be have to put up with a guy like that.

Emily: I’M SO UPSET! I FEEL LIKE…I WANNA CRY BUT I ALSO WANNA MAKE HIM CRY! What is this feeling? Is it…anger? Or more than that?

Fall from Grace chp1

(so guys this is the AU i mentioned earlier, my swap AU! I hope you like it ^^) “I can’t believe you! I leave you all alone thinking I could entrust you all with such an easy task. Run heaven till I return, and what do I return to? One of my sons was cast into hell for what?! What did he do so badly that you all had to throw him into hell?” Angrily inquired the all-fathering god. His voice boomed through the courts, and many angels and demons coward nervously.

“I know that I am rather foolish and cruel, but I tried to pull back on such punishments. But I come back to this mess! My first fucking man is dead dead, Jesus looks just as angry as I do, you started the fucking exterminations which I explicitly told you not to do without my asking. That was supposed to be the last fucking resort! My highest Seraphim is a traitor along with my sons. Not only that but you threw Emiliana down to hell!” God paced the room while gritting his teeth, even with a cloth and mist covering the upper half of his face all could feel his divine energy become heavy with rage.

“First it was the humans, these stupid petulant humans who are ruining this shit and pinning me for their issues calling me unforgiving and horrific. Now I come back to find you all undermining me!” There was a pause, the deity stopping as he looked at his son, Jesus.

“Jesus.” “Yes, father?” The dark-skinned deity replied looking towards him.

“How do you feel about doing ground Zeroing?” The younger deity looked at him in surprise but shrugged.

“If you feel it is necessary father, then I think so.” He answered, this got a bone-chilling chuckle from the all-powerful being that echoed throughout his chambers. Emily furrowed her brows, hesitantly asking.

“Y-..your g-godliness, pardon i-if this is out of turn but. What i-is ground zeroing?” God grinned, clasping his hands together and he walked to his desk and plopped himself down in his chair.

“No need to fear young one. You’re never out of line.” His voice softened when he spoke to her, the girl still shifted anxiously in her seat while sitting beside Charlie.

“Ground Zero was a code word in case I ever wanted to say, ‘hit restart’. I would restart everything from humankind to the earth.” That seemed to grab everyone’s attention, the archangels looked alarmed.

“G-god s-sir! You can’t possibly be thinking of doing that again, surely? I-it can’t be that bad.” Started Micheal, Gabriel joined in stepping towards the desk.

“Please, Father. you must understand Lucifer was going against everything you stood for, he was going to make a fool out of the hierarchy!” At first, God bit the inside of his cheek and rolled his eyes at his creations who tried to persuade him. “Why punish the humans for this?” Though when this line was uttered by Sera a fist was pounded on the table and the deity’s voice roared.

“SILENCE!” Just as he commanded the room quieted to shrunken church mice. The room became frigid as the god spoke.

“This punishment is not solely for the pathetic human but for the lot of you who thought they could get away with this for any longer. I can’t believe I have to do this but, this seems to be the only way to get it through your incompetent and thick skulls.” With a heavy sigh God looked to Jesus as he saw from the corner of his eye the raised hand he held up slowly.

“Yes, my son?” “If you don’t mind a slight suggestion to your plans, Father…why not add that twist I mentioned to you many moons ago?” There was a second of silence before God’s lips curled into a smile and his aura changed from enraged to eerily calm, almost soothing.

“I’ve always loved the way you think, dear son of mine.” “Shall it be, father?” “It.Shall.”

Before another word could be uttered it happened, the world had leveled, and natural disasters rained in one after another. All are forced to watch Earth be destroyed in a numerous way. Many wondered what this twist would be. Just as Earth had begun to reset everything went black!

The first man still suffered the same fate as before, losing both his partners; his death resulted in a different way of getting into heaven. Being reincarnated as Samael and Lilith’s daughter seemed fine at first. She now had someone to guide her and teach her how to do things. Samael and Lilith agreed to this plan in hopes she would unlearn the habits from her first life with enough love and compassion. She smiled as she ran through the gardens of heaven, bright blue eyes lit up whenever her parents would pick her up. Things seemed to be going well, Gabriel and Eve had taken over hell willingly with the promise of not being locked from heaven but all good things had come to an end.

“Charlie dear, Mommy and I have to go down to earth to handle the things going on down there as well as with the other pantheons. I don’t know how long we will be gone, but we will do our best to keep in touch as much as possible.” Charlie looked up at Samael sadly and held onto him tightly with tears in her eyes as she pleaded for them not to leave her. Gentle handles rubbed her back in an attempt to soothe her.

“I’m so sorry sweetie, I know you don’t like this and I don’t either but, we have to do this to keep things on earth in the right order.” “I don’t wanna be alone again!” She cried breaking Samael’s heart and he sat on the ground pulling her to his chest.

“You will never be alone my little angel, I promise.” They sat for a few minutes as she cried into his chest. Lilith had joined them to help calm her child down.

“You are going to be staying with your uncle Micheal. He’s going to take good care of you for the time being.” Charlie had met Archangel Micheal before, he seemed similar to her father, smiley, telling jokes, and strong. They promised to keep in touch and they shouldn’t be gone long, everything would be okay.

“Goodbye sweetheart, be good for Micheal.” Charlie waved goodbye to her parents sadly as they walked out of the castle. She looked back up at the man beside her.

“No need to worry little princess, I’ll take good care of you.” And he did…..at first.
