They grow up so fast: Teenage Luke Headcanons

I can't get out of my head Luke going through a teenage angst faze while in the exchange program and making it everyone's problem. Clearly, demons and angels don't age at the same rate as humans, but if I can blindly have baby Satan, I can have teen Luke.

The program takes place over four years. So sit with me for a minute and think about how everyone would react to sweet, annoying, and adorable 10-year-old Luke turning into a goblin of a 14-year-old!

------------- <3.<3.<3.<3.<3. ------------- <3.<3.<3.<3.<3. -------------

All the brothers (mostly Mams, Satan, and Luci) wondering when the hell did the Chihuahua get so tall. He can look Belphie in the eyes!

What do you mean he's still growing, Simone! He's already too tall!

MC having an uno reverse with Luke. He's now tall enough to use them as an armrest.

Luke is also at the stage where teens think the stuff they like or idealized as a kid is cringe. Being Micheal's assistant angel is the worst thing in the world because Michael is the lamest angel in the Celestial Releam.

He starts bad-mouthing Michael every time he comes back from a check-in. It throws everyone off the first time it happens. Simeon and Solomon questioned if Luke was cursed.

Luke also tries to like baking less since it's now lame due to Michael liking sweets so much.

He fails, he can't say no to Barbatos, Simoen, or MC asking him to bake with them. Plus he really does love baking. He's slowly learning how to make it his own thing, and not doing it to impress Michael.

Luke's envy really comes out as a teen. As a 10-year-old his outburst could be perceived as aww he's just a kid. But now he can get pushy and mean, like when the others try to take MC away. That's his best friend, and MC is spending time with me!

He's not above using his blessing to keep those nasty demons away.

The strangest and most agita-inducing thing to come out of Teen Luke is him and Mammon getting along. Barbots and Simone now know why Lucifer went gray so quickly.

Don't get me wrong, Mammon still teases Luke 24-7. It is this job as his adoptive older brother.

Luke now openly wants to hang out with Mammon, and they cause so much trouble together. Pranks, staying out past curfew, a classic Mammon scheme here and there.

Luke has definitely been strung up from the chandelier at least once. And he defiantly learned his lesson to be way more sneaky.

Luke making friends his own age! Just a weird bunch of young dorky demons and angles running around causing chaos. They are helping unite the realm but at the cost of every adult's sanity.

Luke is the cool one out of his friend group because he goes to RAD and hangs out with the future king and the seven lords!

After 10+ Long Rests to clear out any event that can override this one and another Duke rescue later, I finally got Wyll's last romance scene

damn that bitch really was burdened with a glorious purpose shit

Also consider

Timeline where Megs doesn't wake up (sorry babygirl, but I need you out of the way for this) and Starscream stays / is in command of the decepticons with Soundwave as essentially the SIC and Knockout as essentially the TIC

Like

How would their interactions with the bots and human settlements change, the decisions, the artifact hunt, would Unicron try to wake up again or no, the status of the war, what all would change? I've only read a few fics where this happened but they focused more on say shipping. And while I'm very loud about having fun shipping and letting the robots have hot and nasty sex, I'm thinking about this with my head this time.

Alternatives to CHET I could see:

The pain of Rayla’s absence and then complicated return ushers Callum closer to Aaravos, whether in outright communication or just as a distraction. Callum has an inkling the cube may relate to whatever worries Zubeia enough to accompany the kids into Xadia, possibly going to Rex Igneous for more information (or finding out more from him there in general). 

Rayla saves Callum emotionally/mentally from Aaravos’ manipulations, perhaps guiding him to the Moon arcanum and out of the darkness to the light, hence why that motif has been amped up for the season. (Doesn’t mean she also may not be a reason he goes on a dark path, but in a different way.)

This could lead to a scenario where Callum comes up with a plan to stop Aaravos with everyone’s (Ez, Soren, Rayla, Zym, Bait) help but majorly over-estimates himself and has the cube forcefully taken, Aaravos’ dismissal of his skills and clear dominion shaking his confidence to his core. This would work less well if he also connected to another arcanum prior because that would be reaffirming his potential, and I lean towards this less because it removes a more overt choice (i.e. Callum going up to the tower and then choosing to leave it in 1x03, him choosing to do dark magic when Rayla lets him off the hook in 2x07 in helping her, etc) from the equation, but I still think it could be possible

why don’t u ask your discord server people for one to be stepehen?

It's come up before! But if no one feels like they could do him well, or run him on top of other blogs they may have, then that's simply the way it is.

Ehhh besides, it'd be fun for there to be more people in the scope of this maybe, I think. Idk. I'm enjoying getting to see other people's love of the media; more people to theoretically engage with is just appealing to me I guess.

obey me mc phone doodle after not giving him proper color in 2 years.,… welcome back son 😁

[elegyofthemoon]

no one asked but the music in argenti's quest was driving insane for a while and i was wondering why only to realize that they both sound very ff13-esque.

"Cosmic Sacrifice for Love" sounds like "Giant's Fist" by Naoshi Mizuta

"A Gentleman's Fantasy"... I can't even pinpoint exactly which Masashi Hamauzu song it sounds like BUT IT USES A LOT OF SIMILAR HAMAUZU MOTIFS AND ITS REALLY GOOD LMAO just like listen to "Blinded by Light" :)

It's official, I have a wolship; I just cannot imagine a timeline where these two goobers aren't together in some way.

End of Stormblood really solidified that for me, too. Didn't know where he was, could have been literally anywhere because the Alliance love him; then bam, worried/relieved Aymeric. Ki'to's own relief and elation were palpable tbh.

There is definitely a reason his home is still set to Ishgard.

[outlying-hyppocrate]

positively despising how my consistent personality is leaving me and how i resort to such strange lies
