and so in hear my hope, he is leaning into the Adam of it all for the first time and maybe not grasping entirely the most useful parts of it, but he is trying and learning and growing and that is cool

he is trying out a new mask - literally - seeing what fits him, and I think that with his character development we will see him tap into those two sides of himself at different moments and perhaps his struggle and finding when to lean into which side

then in hear my hope, he has his whole panic break down, build himself up moment. I think with abels character we are seeing him trying out the two sides, one being the aggressive, decisive side of his father and the other being his true nature of soft and caring

so like, we see throughout the eps he is centerest, sees the value in both sides but is ultimately a coward who can't make strong decisions and is easily swayed

legitimately cannot process a single thing from those episodes my fuckin heart yeeeooouch

like Viv I fucking adore the tension and intracacies wound in the writing but please I beg give lucifer a stable relationship
I stg if he doesn't get family/found family in the found family story 😭😭😭

and therefore mould hells perception of lucifer even further by insinuating he may have killed lilith

like we don't /really/ know either but I guess as a viewer I had drawn an assumption that lucifer was not involved in liliths disappearence, based off what I have seen. but like vox has assumably non of that information and neither does hell which leaves him able to accuse and speculate

sometimes I forget that all the characters don't have the same information as we do, and this made it click for me that hell doesn't know where lilith is or why or how she got there

'your wife knew it was wrong, maybe that's why she's not around anymore' 'come on, smite me, silence me, that's all you angels know how to do'

you're so right, that was insanely hard to see. I am enjoying the outright villain arc of vox but god is it hard to watch. I'm sooooo keen to see how this arc wraps up with all the threads of vox's plan coming together
