Adam x reader (fluff)

Warnings for: mention of substance use, casual misogyny, alcohol

A/n requests are open, check my pinned post for details :^)

You sat on the sofa, taking a large gulp of your drink. You always looked forward to Adam's parties, he and Charlie had been your best friends for about a year, and it was nice to spend time with the two of them. In the past, Adam's parties had become something of a free for all. At first he was okay with it, not quite coherent enough to care about the holes being punched in his walls, the stench of pcp emanating from his bathroom, or the broken glass on his carpet. But as he'd started to get his shit together and grow up a bit, he was less fond of his apartment becoming a hive of crime and wanton desire. One of the perks of your friendship was that you were pretty good at defusing situations before they happened, and you didn't really care if people liked you or not, so you weren't afraid to be bad cop and kick people out on Adam's behalf if they got too out of hand.

Adam joined you on the sofa, a glass of bourbon in his hand. This night was like any other, you scanned the room keeping an eye out for trouble, while Adam rolled you a cigarette.

"I see you found my bourbon then," he said, nodding towards the drink you'd helped yourself to.

"Well you didn't expect me to spend the whole night drinking cheap beer did you?" You replied smugly.

Adam laughed and shook his head.

"You're an asshole you know that? This was expensive" he feigned annoyance with you

"Tastes expensive too" you teased, swirling your drink in your hand.

You sat in comfortable silence for a bit, letting the laid back beats of wu-tang punctuate the lack of dialogue, when something caught your attention.

"Dude," you called toward a shaggy haired party goer stood in the corner of the room, smoking on something that definitely wasn't weed or a cigarette.

"Take that shit to the alley, it fucking stinks"

"Hey whatever man," he mumbled before slinking out the apartment door.

"Thanks" Adam said, shooting you a wink.

Just then, Charlie's familiar frame entered the room and made it's way over to the two of you.

"Me and the others are gonna head over to the other side of town soon, apparently one of the frat houses is throwing a rager. You guys gonna come?" He inquired.

"Man I'm too tired for that shit" Adam groaned, throwing his head back.

"I can't think of anything worse. I'd just end up dodging a bunch of frat guys asking 'is it true what they say about girls with piercings' all night" you said.

"Suit yourselves," Charlie said, before turning to the rest of the crowd, "guys come on, I don't wanna miss this party".

Gradually, the guests trickled out of the small apartment, leaving just you and Adam.

"Shit, I better call an uber, there's no way I'm walking in the state that I'm in" you said, pulling out your phone

"Aw did someone over do it?" Adam poked fun at you.

"Behave. Hang on, what the fuck? It says I'm banned?" You exclaimed, looking at the uber app.

"Lemme see," Adam said taking your phone, "ohohoh shit, you HAVE been banned" he sneered.

"I don't even know how that could've happened, I haven't used uber in ages. I mean, apart from that time I let you..." your voice trailed off as you put two and two together, looking up to see Adam's face painted with a guilty smile.

"Adam did you spill your guts all over an uber booked in my name by any chance?" You asked, with a put on polite tone.

He just shrugged.

"You asshole!" You cried out, lifting up one of the couch cushions and hitting him with it.

"I'm sorry! Look dude, you can just stay here tonight. I'll help you get your account back in the morning" he said, offering an olive branch in hopes that you hadn't seen how hard he was trying not to laugh at the situation.

"Fine. And I think I'll take that refill you were about to offer me" you responded, smugly handing your empty glass to him.

"Whatever your highness wants" he joked before dissapearing to the kitchen.

The pair of you sat idly on the sofa, smoking and arguing over which song to play next for a little while, until the conversation turned to your personal lives.

"Where's whats-her-face tonight anyways?" You asked Adam, referring to his latest friend with benefits.

"Oh Stacey?" He took a sip "long gone. I'm done with that"

"Are you serious man? Her tits were like the size of my head, how in the fuck have you upgraded from that?" You laughed.

Adam found himself chuckling with you, before responding.

"Nah, I mean I'm done with hookups. For now, at least. Like, don't get me wrong she was really fucking hot, but I don't know, I always just felt miserable afterwards" he dipped his head down slightly, cringing at himself for letting himself get slightly too real.

"No fucking way, I never thought I'd hear you say that" you teased, feeling ever so slightly proud of him. "How's abstinence treating you then?"

"You should know, miss I don't do hookups" he said.

It was true, as a rule, you didn't do hookups. You used to, and definitely still could if you wanted to, but you just didn't see the appeal of being that intimate with a stranger anymore.

"Man it gets hard, but it'll be worth it in the long run. Not like the dating pool has me spoilt for choice though" you said, taking a drag from your cigarette.

"Preaching to the choir. Seems like people around here either want nothing but sex or they're talkin bout 'how many kids you want?' 'What are you plans for the future?' Like, hell if I know, I just wanna meet someone that makes me laugh" Adam complained, dipping his ashes.

"While it is pretty jarring to hear you complain about people only wanting sex, you put it perfectly man" you said.

"Feels kinda good to get that off my chest. Don't get me wrong or anything, like I love Charlie, but I could never talk about this shit with him" Adam rambled.

You had to admit, it was oddly reassuring hearing Adam letting his human side out. You loved the lairy attitudes of you two best friends, but it got somewhat lonely being the only girl in the trio sometimes, you didn't often get the chance to talk about real shit. You found yourself feeling slightly sorry for Adam, it seemed like he'd been wanting to be more honest about his feelings for quite some time, but never felt brave enough to do so. Following this train of thought, you found yourself saying something you wouldn't normally say.

"At the risk of sounding corny as fuck, when was the last time someone gave you a hug?"

Adam puffed out his cheeks and exhaled before answering

"Too long ago, man"

"Well bring it in, dude" you said, leaning over to him with open arms.

The two of you hugged, giggling, and both slightly embarrassed, but enjoying it nonetheless. It seemed as though the pair of you had been needing this.

When the hug ended, Adam's arm remained over your shoulder, and you remained leaning on him comfortably. It should have felt weird, being so touchy feely with your bro like this, and in a way it did feel a bit weird, but at the same time it was comfortable and you didn't ever want it to stop.

"Look at you, getting all soft on me are we?" Adam teased.

"Watch yourself" you warned playfully

"Or what?" He grinned

"Or this" you said, swiftly tickling his ribs.

Through laughs, Adam somehow managed to snake his arms around your waist and hold you in place, unable to tickle him any longer. The laughter died down and the two of you found yourselves staring at eachother, both smiling shyly.

"You always make me laugh, y/n" he said, his voice low and gentle - it wasn't the lighthearted casual way he normally spoke.

"Same with you" You replied, hearing the softness on your own voice.

Ever so slowly, as though you were afraid to startle one another, your faces edged closer and closer together, until finally, your lips met. The kiss was gentle, tame and full of affection. It should have felt unexpected, unnatural, but for some reason it just felt inevitable, as though it had been a long time coming.

You both pulled away, blushing and smiling timidly

"Wow. How long you been holding that back?" You asked, your voice barely a whisper.

Matching your volume, Adam responded "longer than I think either of us are willing to admit"

Your smile grew in size, which seemed to reassure Adam, who'd felt a little worried that he'd overestimated your feelings for him.

"So.. we make eachother laugh. I think that meets both our standards," you said, earning a small chuckle from Adam.

"Should we stop putting off the inevitable and just.. you know.. give it a go?" Adam said, feeling a bit more confident now.

"What, me and you?" You asked, wanting to hear him say it.

"Yeah, me and you" he smiled

"I'd like that" you said, before kissing him gently.

You snuggled up to him on the sofa, and when the moment passed, the two of you resumed playfully making fun of eachother for being so sickly and cutesy. There was no use denying it any longer, you really were perfect for eachother.

[phddyke]

Do you know what I love about Hazbin Hotel though?

That the angels are clearly sinners too.

Not only the fact that Adam curses all the time and talks about casual sex (which, he’s possibly even cheating on his wife then??) but also, the angels kill demons and Adam even admits they enjoy doing so. He calls it entertainment.

And Vivienne’s making an excellent point: when you do something bad to a group of people who are considered beneath them, minorities, everything else…

What you do to them suddenly isn’t bad. It’s okay now, it’s righteous, because you’ve dehumanized these people.

And then when they try to fight back? Like the single slain angel exterminator? Well then magically it’s a problem.

When Lute said that “the only reason [Charlie’s] still around” is that Lucifer gave her and all the hell-borns some kind of pardon or protection from being killed in these exterminations, I was like ok, that makes sense. I was starting to wonder/assume that the extermination was something that only applied to sinners because it didn’t seem to affect any of our Helluva Boss cast.

But then I was like, wait, why would they want to kill hell-borns anyway? For sinners you could argue that they “earned” it through their bad deeds, but hell-born have no choice but to be born there? And they seem to have a functioning society, just one that’s “edgier” than human society. Also, plenty of the hell-born are good people?

But THEN, I remembered that is a fundamentalist Christian belief: that you can already be born bad, and that the same deeds can be good or bad depending on who’s doing them. Lute taunts Charlie that her life doesn’t matter…that’s a sin, right? Except no it isn’t, because of who’s doing it and to whom.

I love queer people’s takes on Heaven and Hell, they’re always great.

#im glad my joke about the imp cast driving down I-95 in the van and being like #‘what’s with all the blood today? oh right that extermination thing’ is still canon #hazbin hotel spoilers #hazbin hotel #helluva boss #hellaverse #vivziepop #lucifer #adam #hazbin hotel lucifer #hazbin hotel adam #lute #hazbin hotel lute #charlie morningstar #hazbin hotel charlie

[brewing-mischief]

Imagine you finally meet up with the guy who stole both your wives from you

And his first threat to you is "now it's your turn"

Like Adam sure did hesitate with his attack for a hot minute there and can you blame him? Man was having his world wrecked before the fight even started.

#hazbin hotel #lucifer morningstar #adam #the man was processing so much he could not move #he is not interest but the fact Lucifer implicated he was going for all 3 of the OG humans? #dang #the first man was waiting to see if he needed to run right there #cause 2for2 #and Adam's own score card is NOT been looking good since he has to complain to charlie he's regularly being turned down #adam knew he was done for when Lucifer said that #because the fallen angel's rizz is just that good

[a-dauntless-daffodil]

It’s hilarious how Vaggie made herself a ‘sinner’.

How that linked her up with Charlie is such a weird, round about truthful way, even when she was lying by omission about it.

And how amazingly dumb it all makes Adam and Lute look.

Thousands of helpless souls killed by her, but she didn’t do anything ‘wrong’ until she wondered if what she was doing was right. The divine powers in her life only took her wings and condemned her to hell after she doubted their orders, their idea of justice, and quietly chose not to completely follow them.

“You fucked up” they tell her “your mistake” she “left the band” “tried for a solo career". It’s so pathetic. They're so butthurt over the idea of one of their own having a mind of her own.

It’s also so funny, because they spin her simple act of whispering “Go, run. Now!” to demon kid she’d been holding at spear point like it was big defiant move- which makes it into one- even though she never challenged them openly, or threatened them.

Hell, Lute’s “You always were weak” plus exorcist Vaggie always frowning while her murder sisters all grin with glee as they kill sinners- it paints a picture of Vaggie never having been as into exterminations as she ‘should’ have been. Too weak to be a proper exorcist no matter how good at killing she was, not just “the traitor” but also “the failure”.

And she was scared of that. She didn’t want anyone seeing her spare that child, whispered her words to them in a back alley, out of sight.

She was scared of what would happen and didn’t even fight it when Lute took her eye and wings- she was scared and no threat in any tangible way, but apparently refusing to do one single murder is enough to freak Adam and Lute the fuck out.

One woman. Doesn’t do exactly what she’s told. After who knows how many decades of being one of the “top girls” at murder, a “bad bitch” named after “the best thing ever”, and they still get spooked by that tiny moment when she wasn’t under their total control. Like it's such a betrayal to them, her daring to so much as think this level of violence isn’t justified actually, and for a split second act on that thought.

It’s an instant ticket to ousting her from the exorcists AND from heaven, while they fly the fuck off again.

“If angels can do whatever, and remain in the sky-”

and they do. After doing that to one of their own. They did that, to someone who was supposedly meant to be in heaven. They didn’t wait for divine justice- took it, and her eye, and her wings, and her halo, into their own hands and tore them away from her. Then happily, they spend the next three years up in heaven, slurping smoothies and doing more murder sprees.

until Vaggie comes strolling back with the princess of hell, there supporting her girlfriend and the idea that all the shit she did for so long really was and IS wrong.

oh and Adam and Lute are pisssssssed about it. They take her being there PERSONALLY, wanna solve it with VIOLENCE

She hurts them without even trying. Without even noticing they're there.

They're told to fix the princess of hell situation and they have no concept of forgiveness, of caring about sinners, so they guess (rightly) that Vaggie hasn't told Charlie about her past and bet (wrongly) that Charlie would never forgive her if she knew, and also assumed (rightly) that Vaggie would be terrified of that

But they don't get that she's scared of hurting Charlie. Of Charlie being hurt by her. It's a selfless thing. That's her whole PROBLEM.

Her running to hold Charlie after the reveal- her NOT breaking down when Charlie takes alone time in the aftermath, respecting that right up until she thinks Charlie's actively in danger- afraid FOR Charlie when the deal with Alastor is made, no crumbling that Charlie went to someone else for help, when being helpful to Charlie is basically her raison d'étre- agreeing to go alone to an overlord, after learning she can DIE and THIS OVERLORD knows how to do it- all this for the sake of Charlie's dream, their shared goal, their hotel. Their friends, resigned to despair in the hotel lobby, losing hope and maybe hours away from losing their lives

No shit she was never going to bow down to the blackmail?? It'd be like turning herself inside out. Charlie isn't just some "little hottie" or whatever, they're partners. They're in this together. Even when Charlie out loud doubts if that's true, it still is.

Lute and Adam don't GET what it means, that Charlie assumed Vaggie was a sinner already. That the thing she'd be hurt about was the lying, not the murder. She was scared of not really being loved by Vaggie- of everything else wonderful between them being a lie too, all that support and faith empty empty- she wasn't afraid of loving Vaggie, whoever Vaggie had been, she was afraid of who Vaggie might be now and that she'd never really believed in Charlie at all.

Charlie was angry at the thought that Vaggie didn't think she would've accepted her. The idea of not really being understood or trusted by Vaggie, that's what hurt.

And it goes against everything Lute and Adam are, Charlie actually caring about sinners while knowing what they've done- about an exorcist after finding out who they'd been- really trusting that people can change. Lute and Adam hear her say it and see her stand up for it and they just want her to shut up and die

again though, no shit she was going to stick with Vaggie after the truth came out, in the end. Once she had a moment to take a breath and step out of her head long enough for a reality check

Vaggie didn’t say to Charlie what she'd done or who she'd been. But she’s been and keeps doing what she can to follow that idea, unvoiced, from that day when she couldn’t kill a sinner- something Charlie didn't know about but now knows must have happened- A final death means no second chance and no worth as a person, but Vaggie didn’t think that, even before meeting Charlie she didn't think that.

She's always been on Charlie's side. They were on the same side before they ever set eyes on each other. All this time, for three whole years, and now she's off to go find a way to protect everything they've built together.

"-words are cheap, but actions, they speak the truth"

Charlie never really stopped trusting her. Maybe she wondered if she should, but even then, she had Vaggie go to Carmilla to find the key that might save them all.

"She killed an exorcist in the last extermination. She knows how they can be harmed."

"But… I- I didn't even know that was possible."

"If you did, would you have told me?"

So Charlie asked. A pretty painful thing to say- and she said it even as she sent an angel to go find out a way to hurt other angels.

She DID trust that Vaggie WOULD tell her.

The irony of all this happening thanks to Adam and Lute trying to keep it from happening, and all of it leading up to Vaggie getting back part of what they took from her, because now she doesn't need them or heaven to be an angel anymore.

Charlie has faith in her. Enough to send her off on an important mission even after Vaggie hurt her- and send her right to the person who end up helping Vaggie get back her wings.

“The rules are shades of gray when you don’t do as you say”

Vaggie’s new fucking wings are gray when Lute sees them. When Vaggie’s standing over her, sparing her life, her wings and that one, fucking unexplained stripe separating her from the other exorcists, all of it is GRAY.

That visual gut punch of, you’re. Fucking. Wrong. You’re wrong about sinners, you’re wrong about supposedly protecting heaven, you’re wrong thinking you can just DO this shit. That imagery of an angel who DIDN’T stay in the sky because she DIDN’T think being angel meant everything she did had to be right- who’s here in hell, trying to protect sinners from heaven’s slaughter-

And Lute wanted Vaggie to “correct” HER “mistake”? Vaggie’s???

That’s Lute, admitting that people in hell can get second chances and make up for what they did. Admitting that “Sinful filth” like Vaggie can be redeemed in some way, by following Lute’s version of what’s right.

But wasn’t her and Adam’s whole thing the idea of blowing your shot? Getting no other chance after it?  

Oh yeah. Vaggie doesn’t believe that though. Not for sinners like her, not for angels like her.

She let’s Lute live. She does it to make Lute suffer, but there are a lot of ways to make someone suffer- an eye for an eye for example- and Vaggie chooses the one that doesn’t hurt Lute more than it has to, that leaves her alive, and leaves Lute’s suffering to be something completely of Lute’s own making (a HELL of Lute's own making, if you will) (Lute choosing to tear her OWN arm off to continue the fight-).

She's totally dismissive of the woman who was just going after her remaining eye like a dog after a bone.

Why is it that nothing Adam and Lute to do her matters?

Why don’t THEY matter to her at all?

Walking right past them, being so done with them up in heaven, not caving to the blackmail, only being worried about Charlie afterwards, not letting that crack in their relationship stop her from doing what she can for their hotel, Lute threatening to take her other eye and BLIND her just making her snark- even the vague threat to Charlie only gives Vaggie the oomf she needed to defend herself.

“Pathetic” she calls Lute. She’s right- they’re so pathetic, both them, Adam and Lute. They’re so scared of being wrong. So pissy over the idea of being less than great and perfect.

It breaks them. Adam’s last words are him having a meltdown in the face of not actually being hot shit. Where’s his respect, he wails, they should all be worshiping him! But they’re not. One of his random decedents stabs him to death because he would’ve done the same to her, and one of the last things he hears is Vaggie- the fuck up, the traitor, his former grumpy top girl Vagina- whooping with glee as he dies.

And Lute lives knowing that could’ve been her, too.

If it wasn't for Vaggie.

Being not all that didn’t break Vaggie. Finding out she was wrong got her to stop and think and change, not run straight on blindly into a fight that ends up with her (with HIM) dead.

Why does she go from terrified of Lute and Adam, to dismissive and annoyed and just all around not caring about them at all?

They gave up all her respect for them when they demanded the death of a child.

The father of humanity wanted a child killed. A helpless, whimpering kid, sacrificed to his ego and bruised pride, and for shits and giggles. His first lieutenant saw failing to do so as a sin worthy of hell. All this over a child. How could she ever take them seriously after that.  

She came down from high and chased the child and held a blade over them on divine command.

Then, somehow, she saw the HORNS in her own shadow above them- even though she wasn’t WEARING her MASK, and she stopped.

She was her own messenger angel.

She chose to give the child mercy, and became the sacrifice herself.

Vaggie stuck it to the man. Didn’t steal that life. And, terrified of what would happen to her next, acted selflessly. The same thing that got her left behind in hell should have earned her place in heaven, according to Adam-

heaven was shit to her though. Made her into a soldier. Sent her to kill and kill and kill. Taught her trust on the battlefield- in heaven, of all fucking places-

Timeline wise we see her very first smile when she meets Charlie. When a stranger does- again- the bare minimum for someone else.

When she’s back up in heaven later she isn’t wistful, just angry, uncomfortable, annoyed. She isn’t happy there. It’s not home to her, like her and Charlie’s room back at the hotel is. Why should it be? What good did she ever find in herself up there?

Down here though, she's happy. Hell is where her heaven started. So I guess in the end, she did find what she’d earned after all. Or it, Charlie, found her.

When “The rules are shades of gray…”

Sometimes they’re wrong, and you have to break them.  

People like Lute and Adam would rather crack under the pressure and die instead, but not Vaggie. They're out for blood. She's out for love.

Sucks to be them~

took me a minute to realize that adam offering charlie ribs was a biblical AND misogynistic reference. for reference, the bible says that eve was made when god removed a rib from adam and formed it into a human (or something strange like that). there was man... and rib. I'm really appreciating how misogynistic they made him and am curious about where that will go. Also wondering about where the story overall will go, in our current context of actual genocide happening while we all witness it. What will the story overall say about resistance to genocide?

#hazbin hotel #vivziepop #adam #charlie morningstar #its hard being rib #also strange watching this show in light of current events in palestine and congo and sudan and beyond #and interested in what the story will say about what resistance to genocide looks like. #fr33 palestine #text

Fuck it, Adam fic because the world needs it

It's a long one so strap in :^)

Tw for brief mention of substance abuse

Y/n walked into the bar and ordered herself a double jack and coke, and sat down in a booth, all too enthusiastically downing the drink. She justified this action by reminding herself that she probably needed to loosen the fuck up, this was her first date since arriving at college and above that, it was a blind date. She had no idea what had come over her when she applied for the dollar valentine scheme her college was running. Maybe it was loneliness, maybe she was just curious, or maybe, and far more likely, she was high as shit when she walked past the sign up table and thought it would be a laugh.

Well either way, she was here now in her favourite black dress and subdued red lipstick, fitting the description she'd texted to her anonymous beau. As for the lucky fellow? All she knew about him was that he would be wearing a leather jacket and black jeans.

Adam dragged a comb through his overly gelled hair before giving himself one final wink in the mirror. His best friend, Charlie, had bet him 20 bucks that he wouldn't be able to get a girl in his bed from the college's dollar valentine scheme, and of course he accepted that bet without hesitation. He'd get laid AND get 20 bucks, what was the downside? He was confident that he could take any girl he was matched with home, he'd never had a problem getting girls weak at the knees before, and someone desperate enough to sign up for the dollar valentine? Like taking candy from a baby.

He trundled merrily down the road towards the bar, knowing he had an evening of drinks, meaningless sex and earning 20 bucks ahead of him. What a great way to spend a Friday night.

Upon entering the bar, his eyes scanned the room until they landed on the lone girl at the booth.

Y/n glanced up, aware that another presence had breached the perimeter of the bar. Any hope that she'd had for a good night quickly faded when she saw Adam stood there in a leather jacket and black jeans.

She'd met Adam before a few times, none of which were by choice. The first occasion was when he was quite clearly higher than Mount Everest and walked into her in the hallway, causing her to drop all her books on the floor. A classic meet cute trope, except instead of offering to help her with her books, Adam had laughed and carried on walking. The second time they'd crossed paths was in the library. At the peak of exam season the only unoccupied seat happened to be next to a sleeping Adam. Y/n had foolishly taken this seat to work on her essay, not realising that Adam had a nearly full cup of coffee next to him. In his sleep he shuffled and spilt it all over her essay, and himself. He woke abruptly and left without saying a word, other than "oh shit". The final time she'd encountered Adam was at a party. She hadn't been invited to, or wanted to go to this party, the only reason she'd found herself there was because her dealer was in attendance, and she really needed some bud to get to sleep. While picking up, one thing had lead to another and she'd ended up joining the party. Being a latecomer she was far more sober than the rest of the crowd, and was lucky enough to observe her peers drunkenly ambling around the party, one of whom was none other than Adam. She watched him flirt with girl after girl until his attention turned toward her. He managed a cocky "hey" before y/n hastily cut him off

"Not in a million years"

"Hey whatever, fuckin ugly anyways" he had mumbled before disappearing into another room.

To summarise, y/n couldn't think of a worse person to be on a date with.

Although he recognised the girl in the booth, Adam wasn't sure where from, all he knew was that she was the only one in the bar wearing a black dress and red lipstick, so she must have been his date for the night. He approached the booth confidently and said "I'm Adam, your date for tonight"

"Well that's tonight written off then," y/n rolled her eyes.

Adam stared at her, dumbfounded, before he realised what she'd said. Taking a seat opposite her, so he could make eye contact while scolding her, he replied "the fuck did I ever do to you?"

Y/n scoffed.

"Are you seriously that much of a prick that you don't know?"

"Well apparently I am. Have we met before or something?"

"Three times. None of which were pleasant" she narrowed her eyes at him.

"Oh come on, I'm sure I would have remembered if we met three fucking times" he laughed, as if he didn't believe her.

"Well let me jog your memory. The first time you knocked all my books over and laughed at me, the second time you spilled coffee all over my work, and the third time you called me ugly to my face. Ring any bells?"

Adam contemplated for a moment, puffing his cheeks out and furrowing his brow, before finally answering,

"No, yeah, that does sound like me actually. Guess I didn't exactly make the best first impression".

"Or second, or third" y/n chimed in.

"Well," he tilted his head cockily, "fourth time's the charm"

"So far that's not the case. Goodnight Adam." She said, and began to gather her belongings ready to leave.

The vision of 20 bucks being flushed down the drain flashed over Adam's mind, and he quickly realised the severity of the situation.

"Hang on, uhhhh, what did you say your name was?"

"I didn't. But it's y/n, thanks for finally asking"

"Well, y/n, it's clear to me that I've been a total asshole to you, but don't I at least get a chance to make it up to you?" He extended his hand out and placed it on top of hers. For some reason, unbeknownst to y/n, she didn't pull away.

When y/n didn't answer Adam kept on trying to persuade her.

"Come on, let me buy you a drink. We can sit here and you can spend all night telling me how much of a piece of shit I am if you want, don't let me be the reason you're going home at 8:30 on valentines day".

Oh he was goooood. He knew exactly what buttons to press to get what he wanted. Y/n knew this should make her wary of him, but something about it excited her. Fuck it, free drinks and not spending valentines day alone wasn't a bad deal.

"I'll have a double jack and coke," she relented, the faintest wisp of a smile creeping onto her face.

"Atta girl" Adam winked, before heading to the bar.

He returned with the drinks a few minutes later and resumed his place sat opposite y/n.

"Go on then, lay into me, why am I the worst guy you've ever met"

"Well judging by the fact that you're still here, even though it's completely delusional of you, for some reason you still think you might get laid tonight. Am I right?" Y/n said

"Well.. a man can dream can't he?"

"You really think my self esteem's that poor that I'd sleep with you tonight?"

"I mean.." Adam trailed off. He realised there was pretty much no chance of him winning the bet anymore. Which confused him, because even though there was really nothing left to gain from staying at this date, he felt compelled to stay. Something about this girl intrigued him. Perhaps it was the fact that his moves didn't work on her, or the fact that she could read him like a book, or maybe it was the fact that she was one of the very few girls who weren't afraid to get snippy with him. Either way, he found himself captivated by her.

"Alright, I get it. Sex is completely off the table," he said, holding his hands up innocently, "and oh, would you look at that? I'm still here," he teased.

Y/n allowed herself to let out a slight chuckle, hoping that Adam hadn't noticed the blush creeping onto her cheeks.

There was no denying Adam was good looking, ever since the day he'd knocked her books over, she'd been able to admit to herself that he was a handsome guy. Now that his personality was ever so gradually becoming - dare she say - charming, she feared that she might even be feeling attracted to him.

"So," she said, "what's a guy like you doing signing up to the dollar valentines anyway? Surely hitting on drunk girls at a party is more your thing?"

"If I tell you the real reason it's not gonna make you like me any more" Adam said. His words were guilty, but the tone in which he said them seemed almost proud.

"Go on, tell me. It can't make me like you any less."

"Well, my buddy, Charlie, he bet me 20 bucks that I couldn't get laid through the dollar valentine scheme, I figured it would be easy money" he shrugged and took a gulp of his drink.

"Wow. Now look at you, out 20 bucks and sitting opposite a girl that thinks you're an asshole" y/n teased.

Adam laughed at himself before replying, "I know, serves me right. How about you? You don't exactly seem like the sort of girl who'd sign up for a blind date?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Well, and I mean this with no offence, you don't exactly strike me as the lonely heart romantic type".

"You're not wrong there," y/n smiled, staring at her drink as she swirled it around in her hand, before taking a sip. "In all honesty, I don't actually remember signing up. My theory is that I was baked beyond belief and thought it would be a laugh."

The pair burst into laughter at this, which was quickly followed by an exchange of knowing smiles, as if to say "I'm secretly glad we matched with eachother"

"Can I ask you something?" Y/n said, an inquisitive look on her face

"Shoot"

"How come you were such an ass all those other times I ran into you, while tonight you actually seem... decent"

For a split second a flash of remorse graced Adam's face. He broke eye contact and stared at his hands.

"I was on a lot of shit for a while there. High all the time, didn't even consider getting sober. But my buddy Charlie wanted me to come with him to these n/a meetings, you know, for moral support. What can I say? I guess they kinda spoke to me. I haven't touched blow in just over a month now."

He daren't look up from his hands, afraid that his date would be repulsed. To his surprise, her reaction was the opposite.

"Shit man, I'm sorry you had to go through that. Props though, getting clean is a real motherfucker. You should be proud that you got through it."

Her tone was warm, nurturing and slightly out of character.

"You think?" Adam said, daring to regain eye contact.

"I don't just think, I know. I used to be heavy into all that shit back in high school. I'm happy you got out of it," she smiled at him, provoking Adam to react in a way that neither of them expected. He blushed.

"And for the record," she continued, "cokeless Adam's a pretty good guy".

Adam failed to suppress a grin.

"You're not too bad yourself," he winked.

The pair continued to talk, feeling far more comfortable now that the ice was broken. It had become apparent to both of them that they actually had a lot in common, similar music tastes, they both liked the same kind of whiskey, and they both had the same dry wit, allowing them to riff with eachother perfectly. The conversation and the drinks flowed long into the night, until the bar finally closed. The duo stepped outside onto the street and both lit up cigarettes. Noticing how cold y/n was in the bitter February night, Adam took off his jacket and draped it around her shoulders with an exaggerated "m'lady".

"Reel it in, casanova" she giggled, leaning against him.

Adam had arranged for the infamous Charlie to pick the two of them up, and drop them off at their respective apartments.

They stood waiting for their lift by the side of the road, making idle chitchat and the odd flirtatious comment, until y/n said something that she wasn't expecting to say that night

"Can I kiss you?"

Adam wrapped his arms round her waist and pulled her into a gentle, yet passionate, kiss. Y/n's and found their way to Adam's shoulders, and hung themselves over them in a drunken attempt at an embrace.

Alerted by car lights just down the road, Adam pulled away from the kiss, and turned to see his friend's car approaching.

"When can I see you again?" He asked, realising as he spoke that he had just asked a girl on a date - with absolutely no ulterior motive  - he genuinely wanted to spend fully clothed time with a girl.

"How about Sunday?" Y/n answered

"Perfect. I'll take you on a proper date" he smiled.

Just then the car pulled up, and the pair got in.

"Thanks for the lift Charlie," y/n said upon arrival to her place, "and Adam, i had a really nice time tonight," she added, giving him a quick peck on the cheek before exiting the vehicle.

"Man, you fucked up big time. Where's my 20 bucks?" Charlie said, watching y/n disappear up her apartment steps.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever, " Adam said, forking over the money, with an out of character grin on his face.

"The fuck you so happy about? You know you lost, right?"

"I'm seeing her again on Sunday"

Charlie laughed

"Still holding out hope that you'll get to hit skins with her then?"

"Nah it's not like that..." Adam trailed off.

"Holy fucking shit. Holy Mary mother of God, no fucking way," Charlie sputtered, "are you telling me you actually have feelings for a girl?" He laughed

Adam simply shrugged.

"I didn't know you were capable of that," Charlie teased

"Cut it out, man"

"I'm not joking dude, I didn't think I'd ever see the day"

The two friends laughed all the way home, and that night, for the first night in his life, Adam went to bed excited for what the future held.

[phddyke]

Hazbin Hotel is actually healing my inner ex-Christian so hard.

No joke, I nearly started cheering when Lute called Charlie and Vaggie’s love “vile and blasphemous” (and then burst out laughing when Adam immediately followed it up with “Hot as fuck though”). I know that may sound weird considering that I am, in fact, a lesbian, but here me out:

Seeing Christians being explicitly homophobic onscreen? It validates me. It makes me think “Oh yeah, I’m not crazy, Christians are that hateful!” And, call me crazy, but I think homophobia being tied in with villainy is a good thing. Neither Adam or Lute are supposed to be good people; they are very obviously the villain, and that establishes their behavior as bad. Someone on Twitter said that Lute gave them religious fanatic vibes and I couldn’t agree more.

And here’s the thing, too: it’s explicit homophobia, not some dumb metaphor. There’s no way to take it as anything else. And I really need that. I need to see Christians being explicitly homophobic onscreen in the same way that other people need and create worlds where homophobia doesn’t exist.

But me? I want my pain and suffering acknowledged. I want the harm that Christianity does acknowledged. Homophobia is real and the religious kind doubly so. I related to Vaggie so much in that episode; I felt her trepidation about going back to Heaven. Felt like a good metaphor for escaping a fundamentalist church only to be forced to visit again.

And Viv is not afraid to explicitly point this out and criticize them. Like, yes! Say it! They are hypocrites! They don’t care about people being better, they only care about punishment! They maimed one of their own and left her to die because she spared a child! They’re homophobic freaks! They would never see the good that Angel does and how he’s improved and is wonderful, they only see that he’s a drug addict and a sex worker and think he’s worthless for that even though Jesus broke bread with sex workers and people considered the dregs of society. (And of course Angel is gay on top of that.)

And another thing: not only did the Adam line make me laugh, but the second homophobic Lute line about “he blew his shot like the cocks in his mouth” cracked me up too. It reminded me of the pilot where Katie Killjoy said “I don’t touch the gays” to Charlie, which is a line that made me laugh for 4+ years straight. When I told my brother that was the funniest homophobia I’d ever heard in media, he very wisely said, “All homophobia is funny if you think about it.” And you know what? He’s right. It is funny, because it’s so fundamentally goddamn stupid, so let’s give characters ridiculous lines so everyone can laugh at how idiotic they and their beliefs sound.

#i actually have no issue if sinners go to hell for being gay #it’s not like viv is saying that’s a good thing #if anything she’s showing how utterly deranged that is and the very serious consequences #hazbin hotel #tw homophobia #hazbin hotel spoilers #lute #adam #charlie morningstar #vaggie #hazbin lute #hazbin adam #hazbin charlie #hazbin vaggie #angel dust #hazbin angel dust #hazbin hotel lute #hazbin hotel adam #hazbin hotel charlie #hazbin hotel vaggie #hazbin hotel angel dust #hellaverse #vivziepop #thanks for seeing and rescuing my inner queer ex-Catholic kid #also i wanna get ‘vile and blasphemous’ tattooed #i may even work it into my wedding vows #like youre damn right im vile and blasphemous bitch now go fuck yourself<3 #katie killjoy
