"You fell in love with the evil that you bare." - Leviathan
Tumblr media
“I never wanted to come to this awful place to begin with!”
Leviathan’s eyes open with a start, his heart racing and breath shallow. Slowly, his surroundings come into focus – the soft blue glow highlighting the rim of the bathtub he was nestled in, the dim light flowing through his jellyfish fixtures, the posters and figures on the wall and shelves in view. He was in his room, in the present day – not in the past, like in his dream. With a sigh, he heaves himself up and folds himself over a side of his porcelain bed, watching Henry 2.0 swimming in the vast aquarium mere feet away. 
It had been ages since he had dreamt of the Great Celestial War or of their fall, which often were strange distortions of his own memory. Tonight it seemed his subconscious decided to remind him of a time soon after their fall, a time where Leviathan was full of anguish and despair at becoming a demon – the very beings he had before fought so valiantly against, had led the entire Celestial Army to defeat until a truce of peace had been declared. His life up until that point he had had the hatred for demons so firmly instilled in him, and even with movements towards tolerance and his own rebellion against the Celestial Realm’s ways, centuries of hate could not be so easily unlearned. 
Avatar of Envy, he soon was titled. Strange to think that the envy had rooted its way in his heart even before the war. With peace declared, he had lost his purpose – what was a General to do if there was no point in preparing troops for battle? No strategies to devise? He was rendered useless, his position defunct. How he envied the others who still seemed to have some purpose, some worth – no one ever said he might as well be gone, but why would they? It was clear as the bright celestial sky. 
But then he was asked to join Lucifer in his battle against the Celestial Realm, against their Father. And he joined, because he too had realized the unfairness of it all, not just of the punishment dealt to their sister who had just acted on love but to all the other strange cracks that their Father tried to hide or excuse. So he joined, because it was the right thing to do and oh he could be useful again! 
And then they failed. 
He failed.
As he fell, as white wings and halo were traded for a serpentine tail and branching horns and scales, he felt that envy burn brightly. It consumed him, it enraged him, it sickened him. The ugliest parts of him now spilled from him and oh how he hated it! Hated what he had become with every fiber of his being – and so he hid himself away, fearing to even look in the mirror and see eyes of raging envy look back at him. 
But then, ever-so-slowly, Leviathan acclimated to his new demonic nature. To be named an Avatar was one of great pride and importance in the Devildom, the very manifestation of the sin. It was who he was, and he even was named the Grand Admiral of Hell’s Navy (though he questioned the need with established peace). He would act on his temptations, on selfishness, on more violent and cruel impulses that would have shocked his former self. He began to find joy in raking his claws through an offending demon, joy in absorbing himself utterly and completely in his passions, joy in his power. 
There was a strange freedom to it all, one he was not afforded in the Celestial Realm. A freedom that had been for so long seen as evil by those more sanctimonious. 
Leviathan was by one of his shelves now, his hands having found one of his novels that he now absentmindedly flipped through, thumb brushing the edges of pages until it caught on one. He glanced down at the page, and he caught sight of a line: “You fell in love with the evil that you bare.” 
Had he fallen in love with it? Or had he merely accepted it, and had found his moments of exhilaration through it all? The freedom, that embodiment of sin that was his to claim. 
He placed the book back, dropping into his chair to boot his latest game up. A wry, hopeless smirk crossed his lips as he watched the 2d demon slayer dance across the screen.
What did it matter? It was pointless to think too long on the question, because the answer wouldn’t change a thing.
He let himself fade into another world once more.

sometimes i have dreams and then remember them post #18
uh...jesus christ. let’s start there.
let me just preface this by saying that, apparently, this was a world where superheroes exist. so everything that happened didn’t seem too crazy.
no idea how this all started but basically my friends and i were time travelers...or? we traveled through dimensions? not sure at all. i also do not remember what happened that first time we jumped within the context of my dream. i vaguely recall like. trying to blend in but also hardly even interacting with people in this other time who weren’t my friends lmao
a lot of shit happened before this point but this is where my memory is the best so yikes here we goddamn go: up until this point, i had a boyfriend who i was really into. i’m pretty sure that’s how it started. but at some point i instead had a husband who was quite older than me and rich so basically i was a trophy wife. BEFORE YOU SAY SOMETHING RUDE, i wasn’t me at this point i was like a 26 year old model looking lady but sometimes when i say “me” i just means the character i experienced the dream through OK
anyways, my pals all jump, p sure i still had a cute young bf at this point, but fsr i don’t make it? so i’m like ajlsdf freaking out even though in theory, not a big damn deal. so the guy who helps us with this shit is trying to send me to the exact place where they jumped but the thing about this nonsense is that it’s random so if you open up a portal, it’ll just happen to pick a time that’s nearest the portal when you activate?
idk but it worked on the computer so when i tried to get to them, i ended up landing on an rp account i had which was really old and also not a thing irl. who knows how this WORKS just know it took a long ass stressful time to find them. then when i did, they were all hooked up to this weird ass machine and like unconscious. when i got in there i found out they were experiencing a future where the oldest person in our friend group dies and how it impacts everyone but...
at this point, my friends became the characters from the good place and community so let’s just say the death was not tragic or serious but everyone was an asshole so there was that. anyways, i’m trying to catch up to what everyone has seen but i also don’t want to miss them LEAVE or something
this kind of just never gets resolved. the next day, or whenever tf, my husband is sitting on......no idea how to describe this. it’s kind of like stairs, or a stoop, but we are indoors?? i think it was just rich person nonsense furniture. somehow, the nicest part of the dream is when i go up and kiss him and he’s like hey. and i’m talking like things are normal and i sit like. with him in a way i once again cannot describe (it’s obvious i’m a writer lol)
and finally he’s like. we can’t do things like this anymore, we’re getting divorced. and i was like LMAO WHAT on the inside but on the outside i was like yikes i knew that (but DID I?) so i was like “i know.” and then we sat there together quietly and i was just like. my life. bc we were in a very nice comfortable position and i was running my fingers along the back of his hand and i just didn’t want to say or do anything to ruin the moment even though, apparently, DIVORCE.
then, LIKE A DAMN FOOL, i was like. well. i guess i’ll just try dating your son now. he’s more age appropriate for me, he’s cuter, it just makes sense. and he was like. ok. but i know him so i know he’s like pissed in a quiet scary way?! idk what the hell i was trying to do, it’s like i was trying to make him jealous and/or angry but really i didn’t want him to be either of those things. somehow this led to me JUMPING OUT OF THE DAMN BUILDING and scaling the wall down like, fifty floors, bc all the windows had bars on them? it was like an old hotel. idk guys i really DON’T
i think i did that bc suddenly i was like oh shit. i am not safe here. so idr if it was me telling someone or if someone told me, but it became apparent that uh...my husband is goddamn insane and is now going to hire someone to KILL ME. then later there’s a scene of him talking to his “usual guy” about where i’ll be and how to kill me but that he’s not sure about the money issue yet so he’s like. poor? or something??? guess it’s cool i’m getting out now lmao
anyways i run to my friend diana bc idk if we’ve ever explicitly Talked about it but i know she’s wonder woman so i’m like uHHHhhhHH help my husband is gonna kill me. and she’s like not on my watch (not really but basically) and i’m like THANKS. then fsr i’m walking back to her apartment (earlier on i apparently lived here and my dog ran away when i did, so?!) and i run into my pal rory gilmore? and then fsr we run into jess??? and we go to an art gallery? and i’m like on the edge of LOSING it bc i keep expecting to get killed, but also...i? loved my husband and now not only is my marriage over he’s gonna have someone MURDER me????
so i’m like. lowkey crying staring at this sculpture then i see rory and jess in this other section that somehow has a glass door separating us and i see him try to kiss her and she, very nicely, takes his head in her hands and kisses his head instead and i’m like. CAN NOTHING GO RIGHT FOR ME TODAY anhsjgdf
so, anyways, they’re going great but i’m still fearing for my life. we finally get back to the apartment and we decide to make dinner for diana because we’re appreciative but, HOW NICE THE FUCKING GREEN GOBLIN INTERRUPTS US BY THROWING A DAMN MAGICAL BOMB THING THROUGH THE WINDOW AND I’M LIKE. HERE WE GO. guess the murderer my rich weird ass husband had on retainer was the goddamn green goddamn goblin.
my friends run out of the apartment bc i guess they have a plan to fight him and they need to go get diana. i’m just staying in the apartment hiding behind a beam trying not to die. i don’t see the actual fighting bc i’m just a useless idiot. but turns out diana was getting peter parker thanks babes bc they obviously defeat the green goblin and i get to live. huzzah!
anyways i guess that’s essentially the end. i left to go check things out and the fighting was over. we get back to the apartment and dinner is fucked and i’m like sorry diana we were trying to be nice. then jess is like i’d better leave again to live my life and i force him to stay. then i get peter’s phone number just kidding but maybe if i kept sleeping lasodifd. the end.
