Malevolent Podcast. Who are the protagonists? Arthur and John. How are they still together after all this time? Arthur survived the ritual. Why did he survive the ritual? Even Kayne doesn't know, but it's probably got something to do with Lillith. What else doesn't Kayne know? The lighter. What is the lighter? The only possession of Arthur's that he's had pre-Malevolent. What is special about the lighter? It's always on him and it is engraved with the words "This too shall pass." Who, other than our protagonists, has said those words? The vanguard. What does the vanguard call Arthur? Master. What is the vanguard? Idk, but it's in a tooth rn. Where is the tooth from? The severed head Kellin kept, used to be the woman who seeked his help because she knew he heard voices too. Why did she know he heard voices? Rational explanation is that possibly she caught him talking to himself by accident, but Who else hears voices? Kayne. What is the most popular theory about Kayne sent as an ask to malevolentcast which Harlan has answered "Lol" to? Kayne is Nyarlathotep. Who is one of Nyarlathotep's offsprings? Lillith.

Can I run something past the Malevolent Fandom that’s been bugging me?

I’m writing this post-Ep 27, for future reference.

I want to talk about Kayne/Kane/Cain, our resident terrifying murder man. To the point even John, fully aware of who he was as the King, is bordering on sheer fucking fight-or-flight terror at the results of Kayne’s boredom, a man who wiped out an entire city while waiting for Arthur then sat and played possibly the most painful tune he could to lure him in. A man John said looked like he had been playing, painting, with the bodies of the dead.

I haven’t seen anyone say anything about the old tales of Cain and Abel…

Kayne called The King in Yellow “Hastur”, a literal Duke of Hell. Kayne also references Lillith, both of which bring in the Abrahamic lore. Arthur has discussed his worlds take on Christianity to John, and describes it as a cult in and of its own. All of which means that Kayne might actually be Cain. The man who murdered his brother in jealousy and when God, a literal all-seeing all-knowing deity, asked where Abel was? “I do not know, I am not my brothers keeper.”

Now, Arthur has Kayne’s knife. His personal knife. If Kayne is Cain, and Arthur has the literal KNIFE OF CAIN, is no one considering that this might be worsening Arthur’s murderous desires? Don’t get me wrong, he absolutely would have murdered Mr. Larson regardless of who’s knife it was, but I don’t think he would have gone after Uncle. He would have made the actual man responsible pay, not just whoever he could get his hands on. His rage would have been the surgical focused intent we’ve been seeing, not this mindless caged animal behavior.

On the murder of Uncle, (who Arthur tells us is likely Jack, from the paperwork in the cabin where he first meets Yellow) I really don’t think he would have killed him if he didn’t have Cain’s Knife. I am seriously convinced that this is effecting him, because if he had John with him when he found out Jack is Uncle, the conversation would have looked differently. John would have reminded him of the man’s letters apologizing to his mother, of the childish scrawl. John is doing much better about being a detective and an astute observer for and with Arthur. It is only with great work and great details he has been able to work Arthur out of these fits and rages, yeah? When in the past Arthur hadn’t been near as vicious and been willing to compromise. (Yes, I do think a large part of the loss of that is due more to stress and trauma and his own constant hyper-vigilance that hasn’t been allowed to turn off for literal months, but a legit Cursed Artifact cannot be helping matters.)

Am I the only one thinking this…?

[dissolving-mansion]

Totally crazy Malevolent theories I kind of still believe in (having listened up to part 23):

Kayne is the Crawling Chaos

Kayne's 'Lillith' is John's 'Lilly'

The Mother of Wood is more deeply connected to the Arthur-John situation than we have been led to believe

‘Mammon visits MC in the human realm and Lucifer gets jealous’ Part 25/???

Read Part 24 here!

-

“MC I—“ Lucifer tried to speak

“Please Luci.” She spoke with desperate eyes, “I want to talk to him.”

“Okay.” He agreed, “When you feel the time is right we’ll go.”

-

After having their discussion, the nurse reappeared in the room with Lillian stating that they had the all clear to go home. MC’s mind was instantly distracted as her eyes laid on their baby and a wide smile appeared on her face. Taking their daughter in her arms, MC cooed down at her as she was wrapped up in the tiny blanket.

They spent time going over the details of MC’s recovery and nursing the baby and before long they were on their way back home. Lucifer had never been so anxious. Every step they took his eyes were darting back and forth in case of any possible danger. There were still demons in Devildom who absolutely loathed MC for being a human so she was never particularly safe, especially now that she’d had a baby and was weak.

Having a protective hand on her lower back the entire time, Lucifer helped guide her through the corridors until eventually they left the hospital and were able to make their way back home. MC made sure to message Satan to make them all aware of their arrival.

The brothers were all gathered in the entranceway, eagerly awaiting for MC and Lucifer to arrive home. They’d spent the last half an hour quickly tidying and erecting some pink bunting on the walls.

“Oh I cannot wait to see them!” Asmo gushed, “even Lucifer!”

“Yeah well I get first dibs on huggin’ MC.” Mammon stated as he folded his arms over his chest.

“Why do you get to hug her first?” Levi muttered, completely unimpressed.

“Please, let’s not start this.” Satan shook his head, already sighing at his brother’s antics.

Before any of them could say anything, they heard footsteps approach the door and before they knew it, Lucifer and MC had appeared.

She had a huge grin on her face as she was met by the six demons. The House of Lamentation had never felt so welcoming. With Lucifer carrying Lillian, MC stepped further into the room.

“Hey Mammon.” She beamed as she gently hugged him.

“Hey MC, I’ve missed ya!” He grinned as he held her, quickly sticking his tongue out at Levi nearby.

“I was thinking about you on our way here.” She told him as she pulled out from the hug. Mammon had a bewildered look on his face as he processed her words. “I was just telling Lucifer how different things would be if it weren’t for you.”

He raised his eyebrow, still querying her words.

“You came to see me all of those months ago...if you hadn’t then Lucifer never would have come too and I’d have no way of contacting him once I would have found out I was pregnant.” She smiled, “It’s all thanks to you that we’re here now.”

While Mammon had a proud look on his face, Lucifer didn’t quite share the same expression. His was more sombre as he began to imagine what would have happened if him and Mammon never went to see her. Would Diavolo have eventually gone to the human realm?

Although the Prince had somewhat redeemed himself, Lucifer couldn’t help but feel angry whenever he thought of the way he’d originally planned to manipulate MC into carrying his baby. Whether he loved her or not, at one point he had completely unbalanced thoughts and that’s all Lucifer will see whenever he sees Diavolo now.

But despite his negative thoughts, even he couldn’t help but feel the smallest shred of admiration for his younger brother.

“She’s right, Mammon.” Lucifer spoke up, “Without you I may never have known about our baby.”

All seven brothers and MC watched him intently, silenced by his words.

“Thank you.” He spoke sincerely as he placed a hand on his chest.

Mammon was completely taken aback by Lucifer’s gratitude. It was incredibly rare for him to ever thank any of the brothers let alone him. Feeling himself growing sheepish at the praise, he scratched the back of his head. “Y—ya can always leave it to the Great Mammon to save the day!”

MC smiled at him in awe as she placed a hand on his cheek. “You are great, Mammon.”

“Come.” Lucifer ordered, taking Lillian toward the door, “Let’s move this into the lounge.”

With the brothers dispersing from the room, MC quickly reached out and grabbed Satan’s hand before he could follow. He turned around with a confused expression. “Is everything okay?” He asked concerned.

“I know you’ve been really supportive for Lucifer.” MC smiled sweetly, “It’d seem that you’ve been his voice of reason - thank you.”

“Lucifer and I may never have gotten along but I know that when something plays on his mind it can spiral him into insanity and cause him to make the wrong choices.” Satan stated simply. “Usually I wouldn’t care but this wasn’t something that I could sit idle for - I didn’t want him to make a decision that he’d regret for the rest of his existence.”

“You’re a great demon, Satan.” MC breathed, “I know he appreciates everything you’ve done.”

“So do I.” Satan spoke with a small smile.

“Good.” She mouthed at him before they left the room to join everybody else.

Entering the lounge, the first thing they saw were all of the brothers gathered around Lucifer as he carefully removed Lillian from her carrier. Holding her close in his arms, the demons were all silent as they gazed down at the tiny baby.

“Can I hold her?” Mammon practically whispered.

Lucifer was a little hesitant at first. The only other person he wanted to see holding his baby was MC and that was partly because he had no other choice. “Mammon you be caref—“

“I know, I know! I’ll be careful.” He stated.

Reluctantly leaning his body toward his brother, Lucifer delicately passed Lillian over to him. She wasn’t sleeping. In fact, her eyes had never been so wide as she stared at all of these strange new faces. Her tiny hands shifted as Mammon took her in his arms. He couldn’t hide the absolutely huge grin he had on his face as he gushed over her.

“Ya kinda cute!” He beamed.

“Kind of?” Lucifer questioned sternly.

“Ooh, calm down Dad!” Asmo giggled.

Feeling the warmth of her Uncle’s arms, a tiny content smile appeared on Lillian’s face. “Ah!! Look at her she’s smilin’!” Mammon grinned as he almost dropped her.

“MAMMOOOOOON—-“

-

Diavolo twiddled his quill between his fingers as he stared down at his desk. He couldn’t hide the sombre look he had on his face as he tried to rid his thoughts of MC and Lucifer. His mind tormented him over and over, reminding him of what he almost tried to tear apart.

“My Lord.” Barbatos’ pleasant voice spoke softly.

Lifting his head, Diavolo’s eyes met his as he dropped the quill from his hand. “Apologies Barbatos, I hadn’t realised you were stood there.”

“There’s no need to apologise, My Lord.” Barbatos spoke politely.

His servant could see that the Prince wasn’t himself. Although he knew it was his fault that Lucifer discovered his true antics, Barbatos never felt guilt for Diavolo. After all, his intentions of telling the eldest brother were only because he could see something dire to come if the Prince were to continue his malevolent plans.

“Tell me Barbatos...” Diavolo spoke quietly, “How is she?”

“Home.” He nodded, sensing MC being back at the house.

“And the baby?” He asked desperately.

Barbatos paused for a moment, his gaze falling to the floor. “I don’t know, My Lord. My abilities are sparse when it comes to the infant - it’d seem with her being a mix of three species I’m unable to see through to her.”

“Three?” Diavolo scrunched his nose.

“Yes, My Lord. She’s part human due to her Mother and part demon because of her Father. However, with MC being a descendant of Lillith and Lucifer being a fallen angel, their baby still carries celestial blood.”

“Hells...” Diavolo whispered with wide eyes as his stare diverted across the room. “I hadn’t even considered the thought.”

“And now you understand why I had to stop anything from coming between the parents of the child who is the key to uniting all of the realms.” Barbatos stated, bowing his head.

Diavolo contemplated the idea. Suddenly worry filled him, was Lillian protected enough? Were they all protected enough?

“My Lord there is something else that I must tell you.” Barbatos sighed, catching the Prince’s attention. “With MC and Lucifer being the first to mix species with their baby, it may cause them great threat.”

“The nobles.” Diavolo muttered through gritted teeth, already knowing where the conversation was going.

“Should they learn of their child, I fear that Lucifer, Lillian and MC may not be safe.” Barbatos informed him.

“They’d never defy me.” Diavolo stated, abruptly standing up from his chair.

“I only wish for that to be true, My Lord.”

Ooh gurl! What do we think to that?

[alightwhendarknessfell]

Just a fun fact a learned recently (not saying it’s Juliet’s reasoning behind choosing the name), but Lillith is actually mentioned in the Bible as being the first woman before Eve. She was made WITH Adam, not FROM him, hence they would not concede to each other as they felt they were equals. This strained their relationship, leading Lillith to curse God and speak his real name, getting her banished (although some stories say she left willingly) from Eden, shunned far and wide not to be spoken of, and replaced with Eve. Lillith is claimed to be the Mother of Demons because of her role in denying God’s plan and essentially becoming the world’s first feminist by refusing to concede to someone meant to be her equal. She was said from then on to be a demon similar to a Succubus and a malevolent force that killed babies at night if they didn’t have proper protection amulets. It’s a very interesting mythological story. Supposedly, most mentions of her were removed from the Bible except small pieces due to her “betrayal”. It’s a typical “Woman is evil because she no listen and she be free” story.

I’ve heard the story of Lilith before. I’m pretty sure that was part of the motivation (if not the main motivation) for Juliet picking that name. It’s a very appropriate choice for the message she’s sending with her first single.
