the brothers and what dances they do (a bunch of not-so-serious dancing headcanons that I’ve spent too much time thinking about)
exactly what it says on the tin. this is all just what I imagine the brothers dancing during the dance battles and was also spurred on by how much I miss taking dance classes in the city :/ my knowledge isn’t too deep so if you guys have bits of knowledge to share let me know!! it’s been a hot minute since I last looked into this stuff and really this was just to indulge myself in imagining Mammon, Asmo, and Mephisto all going at it on the dance floor at the Fall
Lucifer
Personally I find it hard to imagine that Lucifer has the looseness and fun to be able to freestyle (at least, without feeling incredibly self-conscious about it), so while I do believe he can dance well, it’s largely dependent on whether he has choreo to follow or not. And even then he’d still do best with studio dancing more than street, and he shines the most when in formal settings.
However! Get him inebriated enough + play the right music and he’ll break out some soul dance a la Soul Train that just makes you wonder where and when the hell he got the chance to learn all that (hint: a certain red haired demon got absolutely enamored by the style for a while)
Mammon
Honestly strikes me as the kind who can pull off most street dances? Since he’s got the spirit, confidence, and vibes like he’s got the musicality for it. I can see him excelling in locking and house dance, plus being pretty good at Memphis Jookin’. Something also tells me he’s really good at storytelling when he dances, so whenever he starts getting Into It it’s a show that everyone wants to see. Learns pretty fast and makes everything look easy.
His go-to styles are pretty different from Asmo’s, both because he just finds them more enjoyable and because he knows how nasty Asmo gets when he steps on his toes, so to speak.
Levi
Sooo cliche but so correct—this demon loves his idol choreos and I personally don’t think it’s limited to just girl groups (headcanon that he stans boy groups too, his current bias groups just happen to be all girls? Has it been confirmed that they’re all girls?). He’s so good at picking up choreo that he knows what the boy groups do and can pull them off wonderfully well. He’s the kind of stan that can name a song with just the first second of the song played and never leaves the dance floor during random kpop dance challenges.
It’s also canon that he can do wotagei exceptionally well (to the point that even Satan wanted to try it out?). Personally I think he can do HardStyle, much to everyone’s surprise. Shuffle, Hakken, JumpStyle, you name it. It’s just rare that he ever goes out to get the chance to actually show anyone he can do it.
Satan
It’s a bit hard to imagine him doing anything other than ballroom and studio dances (much like Lucifer >.>) since he also seems like he’d be too self-conscious to really work on doing street dancing to the point that he can freestyle comfortably? But he’s tried out wotagei with Levi in the middle of a club so Satan’s a bit of a wild card.
He seems like he’s fun enough to do well with swing dancing though! And part of me wants to say he’s unexpectedly great at krumping? Which both makes sense when you think about what krumping is and what it means, but also doesn’t if you just look at the style (and music) and Satan separately.
Asmo
Another one who vibes like he excels with pretty much any sort of dance! He and Mammon definitely destroy the dance floor and are sure to have dance battles whenever they’re in the same club—probably a common occurrence and main attraction at The Fall. There’s a lot of dances I see him killing it with—like most social dances, dancehall, and the most agreed upon by the fandom, vogue. Personally I think he does incredible floor performances when he’s voguing and is the king of New Way.
But! I raise a lesser known but much more ‘Asmo’ feeling dance because of how dramatic and theatrical it is—waacking. It’s fun, expressive, and full of flair that matches its disco roots with a focus on musicality. Plus Asmo would totally be the dancer that playfully interacts with the audience and pulls props from out of nowhere. He’d mix voguing and waacking and it would be glorious.
Beel
Another one that is a bit hard to imagine dancing. I think he can follow choreo fairly well but he’s not the kind who dances elegantly. I mean, he could, but dancing elegantly when you’re that huge is a challenge.
When it comes to what dance I can see him doing well with—imagine this huge beast of a demon breakdancing? Yeah? Yeah. He intimidates all on the stage and can probably literally destroy the dance floor. He can pull off power moves just fine and it hits different because it’s him doing them. Stay out of his way or you might genuinely get knocked out!
Belphie
It’s interesting that it seems like the most popular dance he gets associated with is very difficult and requires a lot of fine control: ballet. So jumping off of that, there’s another dance that requires a lot of fine control that I see matching him very well and it’s popping.
Out of every dance I’ve seen, popping just has an effect on the audience like no other—it often doesn’t look like much is happening but there’s so much that goes into making it look effortless and I feel like Belphie would get a kick out of the kind of taunting that just hits harder when mixed into the popping. Plus to me it vibes on the opposite end of the spectrum compared to breakdancing, which I think works with his whole twin thing with Beel.
BONUS: Mephistopheles
Literally wanted to write this entire headcanon just to put out my hot take of Mephistopheles being Asmo’s arch nemesis when it comes to voguing. Have you seen his sprite poses? I know he has a cane (though I’m not even sure if he uses it for walking?) but he can catwalk and duckwalk for days in those heels of his. Does the most mesmerizing hands performances and does Old Way better than Asmo, which drives Asmo up the wall.
