Anyway I can self-indulgently say that, in this AU, Luci did have to throw down with Asmodium to get his friends out. He caught them as they were escaping. Luci pushed the two of them out a window, and threw himself at Asmodium [who is not only more powerful but also physically larger / stronger even after Luci's promotions]. He knew he couldn't kill Asmodium, but he could at least incapacitate him. That was the aim anyway. He had only the briefest moment to do so as his friends plummeted toward the ground. He knocked Asmodium through a solid stone wall, left him with scratch scars across his neck and chest, then immediately dove out the window to catch his friends. They were mere inches from death when he caught them.

#META / HC: PRIMARY.#being a devil gives him a certain durability #but he'd JUST come out of a literally torturous transformation #Luci the entire time was running on sheer adrenaline and force of will [plus the power of friendship and he'll kill me for saying that]#he couldn't put up a fight as he was literally dragged back to the Hells after saving them #he was barely conscious honestly #I think he kinda wandered off from his friends to collapse so they wouldn't know he was in bad shape #and that's when Asmodium's other lackeys caught him #he woke up hanging by his thumbs. the period before he was bound and banished was not pleasant #he still says it was worth it. the price he paid was high but he'd pay it again
