    Summary

    When Astarion is assaulted on their way to Baldur's Gate, he is not even surprised. Yet another day in his miserable life. He could have done without his party hearing about it, but it isn't as if they don't already know how depraved he is.

    That they care enough to rescue him is... unexpected.
    That they insist on not brushing it off and on giving him time to heal is downright ridiculous.

    What is he supposed to heal from exactly?
    His entire existence?

    ***

    Or, Astarion is raped and his traumas are catching up with him. But now he has a whole party behind him and, for the very first time, he has the luxury to break down.

    Summary

    Angels were never meant to have childhoods. God created them in forms and with abilities He found useful. But then God reformed the twins Lucifer and Michael into children in a fit of anger. Lucifer has since been restored to his original adult form. However, Michael, despite facing what appears to be angel puberty [which was never supposed to be a thing], finally becomes the rebel his brother always was. He refuses to be an adult again, refuses to accept the responsibilities he has always held. Instead, he runs away, determined to really get to know humanity--and maybe even himself--after all this time.

    Summary

    Chloe runs away after she sees Lucifer with his Devil Face. She doesn't see the aftermath: not Lucifer passing out from his wounds, nor Pierce surviving and taking the Devil as his reward.

    Meanwhile, Dan thinks that Lucifer has run off after confronting Pierce, just like Chloe did. Whilst raiding a one of the Sinnerman's bases, however, he comes across Lucifer, bleeding and broken, and realizes just how wrong he was.
