Lilith is a last minute implementation and does nothing for the plot. Majority of the authors on here don't acknowledge her existence. She essentially does not exist. the game should've focused more on world-building and establishing character roles. The whole fallen angel turned avatars of sin plotline is extremely awkward. To me, all the brothers were raised as full-blooded demons, manifestations of sin. If she did exist, game should've made her be the fallen angel demon queen (like in myth).

Hi! Long time no fuckin' see eh? Like a blast from the past. Don't worry I'll keep this short:

I understand what they were trying to do with the fallen angel arc, in fact that is leagues more interesting from a narrative perspective rather than "they're plain ol demons". See my Fallen Angel Theory spattle for why it's important to remember that are more self indulgent as fallen angels than if they were regular demons.

The problem with Lilith is that they did not give her more than "she was my little sister, and now she is you, in a sense." I understand that prior to this everyone but Belphie had a reason to actually care for MC to that point and that was just the final straw to make them love you, but that shouldn't have been a factor at all. For all that could have been relevant for Lilith, we would merely sympathize with the loss, comfort them personally, and that would be what decides if they love us or not to that point.

The fallen angel arc is only "awkwar" because the writers don't know how to write.

Ieri ho rivisto un film in cui Jane Fonda interpreta un personaggio che, tra le altre cose, è una nonna; e mi ha ricordato la mia, che è stata una magnifica nonna perché non era un’estensione di figli e nipoti, ma una donna compiuta e poliedrica, che insegnava perché era. E ci portava a fare i picnic in montagna, ci teneva a galla senza braccioli, trasformava ogni viaggio in auto in un’avventura, ci ha insegnato a disegnare, a giocare a scopa e briscola, ad amare l’arte in tutte le sue forme, a sbucciare le arance a forma di fiore, a cantare e ballare senza vergogna, a piegare le buste a triangolo, a fare gli origami, a imitare e prendere per il culo tutti, ma senza cattiveria, a provare sempre empatia, a camminare dritti con gli occhi puntati in avanti, a non temere di amare noi stessi.

Tutti dovrebbero avere una nonna modello Jane Fonda, figa da far paura come la mia.

Prima io e mamma ci siamo messe a guardare tutte le vecchie foto, dei rullini sviluppati anni fa, e tra le tante ho trovato questa. Essenza della mia infanzia, quando se ne è andata una parte di me è volata via con lei. Ciao angelo mio, mi manchi.

Destiny

Before his nonna died she gave everyone in the family advice. Some of it was good some of it sounded like the crazy ramblings of an old ill woman. The advice his nonna gave to Luigi was “Marry a girl whose name starts with D.” He was a little disappointed but brushed it off as the illness getting to her head. He wrote the “advice” in his journal and didn’t think about it. That was until he became interested in girls.

None took notice of him until after he grew his mustache in the last years of high school. Luigi dated Destiny Del Vecchio in high school. It was his first date, first girlfriend. He remembered what his nonna said and thought they were destined to be. Literally Destiny.

They broke up before she headed off to college in another state. He was going to the local trade school. She told him maybe they would be able to meet up after collage. “You never know what could happen.” They moved on with their lives, but sometimes he would have dreams that they would be married and live in some apartment somewhere.

After the whole magic world debacle. She did call him. She saw the newspapers and her parents told her about the crazy day that a lava filled monolith broke through the road with a fire breathing dragon turtle. The date was ok, but they didn’t click. They shook hands and bid each other goodbye. He stopped having dreams about her after that.

Luigi saw the relationship between the Princess and his brother blossom. He was so happy for them. It was cute seeing them become flustered. He always knew princesses would like Mario. Every Sunday they would have family dinner in Brooklyn. Their family would tease Mario about the Princess. Luigi would look at his uncle Arthur and his wife Marie and their kid. He kinda wanted that for himself. Eventually.

During the week he looked around him. They worked and lived among toads. He loved the toads but if he was going to eventually find a wife, he would have to spend some of his time elsewhere. He told Mario he would be spending his Saturdays back in Brooklyn. He asked his family to find some nice girls he could go on dates with. They happily did. He went on dates every Saturday. He clicked with none of them. His life was just too different for them to accept. He was happy with his life and living in the Mushroom Kingdom. After a year of failed dates, He decided he would put a pin in dating for a while. He went back to only going to Brooklyn on Sundays.

Luigi continued on with his life. He didn’t need to rush things; he didn’t need to force things. One day Princess Peach called him, Toad, and Mario to go investigate the desert. The Kongs wanted to build a racetrack there, but Peach wanted to make sure they wouldn’t be messing up a tribe or ecosystem that lived there. She also wanted them to investigate if there was anything from the earth that showed up in the desert and assess if it was safe.

****

They surprisingly met up with DK while in the desert. “The princess didn’t trust the Kongs to do their own research before they built a track?” The gorilla started. Mario and Toad wouldn’t stand for anyone to bad mouth the princess. Luigi backed away from the impending fight. Only to be poked in the back. He turned to see something tall in an orange hooded poncho and a shy guy mask, pointing a spear at him. Luigi yelped, alerting the others that something was wrong. Suddenly cactus-like balls burst from the sand creating a cage around the group.

“Why are you here?” The tall shy guy demanded. It sounded like a girl. Luigi looked down out of nervous habit. Out of the bottom of the poncho were some long human-like legs. Mario opened his mouth to answer but DK got to it first. “It’s none of your business!”

Mario glared at DK. “Don’t say that!”

“WHY NOT! IT isn’t.”

“It clearly is!”

“How do we know?”

“CHE!” Mario threw his arms up in the air. Another argument started between the two, Toad jumped in to defend his best friend.

The figure ignored the squabble and poked Luigi again. “Answer!” she demanded.

He put his arms up in surrender. “W-we were seeing if we could build a kart racetrack here.”

“You can’t. Now go home.” She lifted her spear.

“Wait! W-we need to tell our higher ups why?”

“Because I said so!”

“W-well who are you?”

She huffed, “I’m Daisy, I protect this neutral land from either side of your stupid war.”

“There isn’t any war anymore. Bowser has been defeated.”

The masked lady looked at the still flaming argument. “Are the Kongs and the Mushroom Kingdom going to war over this land?”

“Oh, heheh No we are on good terms, it’s just those two” He pointed to his brother and DK, “have some kind of rivalry going on. And Toad just…” he flipped his hands around trying to find the right word “...likes to jump in whenever he can.”

“They are annoying.” She stated.

“Yeah well, family can’t live with them can’t live without them.” She gave a snort. Did he really make her just laugh? He continued to talk. “So…you some kind of shy guy?”

“No.” her defenses raised back up.

“I haven’t seen anything like you before. Me and my brother here, are kinda new to this world.”

“….”

He rubbed the back of his head at the silence. “…Well, I guess I have to break up their fight before they start throwing punches. Hehe…” He turned around. A whistle rang out; the Pokeys dug themselves back into the ground. The yelling from Mario and DK stopped. Mario smiled at his brother, “What didja do Lu?”

He shrugged, “Just talked I guess.”

The Kongs begrudgingly accepted it was neutral ground and stopped their construction plan. Luigi and Mario told Peach that they may have encountered another female human in the desert. This excited Peach. She suggested that they all go to try to meet her again.

*****

They did meet her again. “Go away!” Daisy pointed her spear at them. “I told you we don’t want to be on anyone’s side!”

Peach stood up taller. “Who is we?”

“Like that gorilla said, ‘None of your Business.’” She turned to leave. “Now never come back!”

“Wait! Are you human?” Daisy paused her retreat; Peach continued. “I’ve lived here my whole life and I have never seen a shy guy with such long limbs.”

She gave a sign and lifted the mask. A tawny freckled face framed by auburn hair was drawn in a scowl. “You’re right I’m human, what do you want a prize?” She sniped out and turned again to walk away.

“Don’t go!” Peach reached out. “I need your help!”

Daisy swiveled around. “With What!? You’re a princess with a kingdom, why do you need my help!?”

“I need to know about people like me… were you born here?”

“Might as well be.” Her tone clipped.

“Are… are there more of us?”

“No…” She quietly replied.

“D-did there use to be?” This time Luigi spoke up. He was sensing the sadness radiating off the woman.

She slid the mask back on and jumped up on a rock and ran away.

That night the group of adventurers ate around the fire. Luigi had cooked, he would have liked a full kitchen, but he had been learning from Toad how to cook over a campfire with little supplies. They were all surprised when Daisy stepped into the fire light. She sat down and curled her knees up to her face. The three friends exchanged looks. Luigi offered her some food.

She took it. The food smelled delicious even from miles away. She took a small bite. It was delicious! She quickly finished what was on the plate. “Where did you learn to cook!”

Luigi smiled brightly, “from my Mama!”

Her eyebrows flattened at the revelation. “You have a mom?”

“Yeah! Don’t you?” Luigi slapped a hand over his mouth. What an insensitive question! “I-I’m S-soorry” he stammered out.

She waved away his apology. “No, this is why I came. I’m ready to talk about what happened. I figured that once I’m done sharing you can go away and stop bothering me.” She took a deep breath.

Daisy’s mom hadn’t survived giving birth to her. Her dad couldn’t take care of her alone. He was on his way to give her to nuns to raise. He took a shortcut through a construction site at night and ended up falling into a hole. While trying to find his way out he found a green pipe, he sat down on the edge and ended up in a shy guy tribe in the great desert. The tribe took in anyone who didn’t want to be forced into Bowsers army. Her father got sick, and no one knew how to help him. He died when she was 16.

She finished her story and stared at the fire. Peach got up and sat next to her. She placed a hand on Daisy’s shoulder. “I’m so sorry that happened to you.”

Daisy just nodded. She took slow breaths trying not to cry around strangers. Luigi got up and sat on the other side of Daisy. He gave her a hug; she was surprised but didn’t shove him away.

*******

They had set up a correspondence between Daisy and Peach. They would talk to each other, Peach would visit her, they would challenge each other in many feats, and eventually Daisy would come to visit Peach. Luigi would make sure he was around when Daisy visited.

He got the courage, from the many pep-talks from Mario, to ask her if he could start writing her letters. She agreed. They wrote, talked, they would go on kart rides, compete with each other, and sometimes just go on walks together. Luigi found himself falling for her. She was loud, active, tough and spunky. He loved the energy she brought to his life. Like his brother she encouraged him to be all that he could be.

She wasn’t weirded out by the duo world living. She missed her family, so she encouraged him to visit them often and appreciate them. When Daisy did come over for Sunday dinners she could be as boisterous as the rest of his family. The brother’s uncles were impressed by her.

He tried to help her find her family on Earth. He looked through newspapers and missing persons reports. He even submitted her DNA to try to find any close relatives. It turned out her grandparents were dead, and she had an uncle and aunt who died in 9/11. Daisy just shrugged “I was never really apart of this world. I don’t even know how I would react if I could meet my family from earth…” They decided to stop looking for her relatives.

One Sunday Luigi was feeling nostalgic. He got out old photos and journals to show to Daisy. As he was reading over some of his old journal entries to see what he could share, he found what he had written just after his nonna died. “Marry a girl whose name starts with D.” He smiled. Maybe he would after all.

------------

Author Note: After I broke up with my high school boyfriend I would have dreams about him all the time! One day during winter break when I was visiting my home town we went on one final date together and that was just what my brain needed to stop dreaming of him. Then I went back to university and meet my now husband.

I'm making fanfiction of the small throw away lines in the Mario move that made me think.

In the spirit of VDay I figured I'd post some of my artwork from years past back when I had my older blogs with the retired muses!

Starting off with my first Vday artwork I posted with Io!

Secondly was with Nonna (and Toma). It's funnier when you remember that Nonna is Ampa's grandma and Toma ended up married to Io :>

Nonna and Toma were a really solid relationship when they were dating and lasted for a long while - even moving in together. However, Nonna comes with Seth and as time wore on, it was clear they wouldn't go the distance. Around this time, Nonna met Daimon and they both bonded over their fear of crowds/people and worked together. Then, Io got stood up by Tapion and went to the concert with Toma instead.....and the rest is history! Toma and Io realized how much they've grown together and how deep their feelings went, and Toma and Nonna went their separate ways.

Caatli didn't have any Vday art so I'll just add her and Mochi talking about love (or just Mochi's obsession with different ships--)

Honestly, I'd be surprised if they went all in with the angels vs demons thing because every time this game introduces a big plot point like MC having to break pacts or Diavolo's dad potentially waking up, it never amounts to anything.

At the end of the day, these characters are gonna stay mostly the same even if the writers actually make something significant happen because they know they have an audience that wants as much content as possible as opposed to good writing.

You hit the nail on the damn head. REPEATEDLY might I add. Instead of growth or interest we get complacency and more of the same. Nothing has EVER changed in this game for any of the characters. They relearn the same things on loop- something we've seen literally happen between beel's chapter and the recent as LAST NIGHT lesson 19. What did we learn in Beel's chapter? While satan has his tiffs we can all nit-pick about, he's still our brother.

What did we learn in lesson 19? satan is our brother and we wont go back to celestia and leave him behind!!

whats the difference?

there was a fake plotline to bring them to the same conclusion. nevermind the fact that they all already came to their own conclusions in their respective chapters that they did originally want to go back but have already adapted to their new life in the devildom and dont want to give that up again. so really, trying to force the whole "ohhh... WILL they go back after all?" thing was never a point of tension. the threat from god is.

and its a weak threat at that. because i just know that by the end of lesson 20 the threat of war will either be over or drawn out so we can talk about each of them fearing the threat of war looming. STILL.

If lesson 20 ends with god (or michael or raphael) saying "i see how much you guys care about each other and like living here now. alls well that ends well i guess!" you wont hear from me again
