i see people are talking about this again so, from a queer trans jew:
LILITH IS OPEN!
IF YOU WANT,
YOU CAN WORSHIP HER!
BE YOU JEWISH OR GENTILE 💖
Four points:
lilith is open, but making jewish pregnancy protection bowls and saying its idk a modern michigander witch invention, THAT is appropriation. Just saying a prayer to Lilith as a gentile is, can’t believe i have to say this, not appropriation.
lilith is jewish, as known from oral tradition, ancient and medieval apotropaic artifacts, Zohar, and of course the Alphabet of (falsly attributed) Ben Sirach ~ she’s jewish but, just like judaism, she’s is an amalgam of common experiences witnessed by jews and gentiles in antiquity
lilith is actively worshipped, observably, in reality, by jewish and gentile women and queers for decades. My friends aren’t antisemitic just for me inviting them in, that’s batshit talk.
don’t tell anyone who to worship. this includes unsolicited suggestions to “swap” Lilith with anyone else. Imposing your religious beliefs on others is very, very culturally christian, so stop that. please.

Lucifer: So, we've been chosen to take part in a duel against Dream, in Choronzon's stead. Guess we've got to fight.
Mazikeen: You know, you're the ruler of Hell and one of the most powerful beings in existence; it's a little beneath your dignity to get nominated like this by one of your own subjects, you don't have to-
Lucifer, changing into the ideal leather outfit in which to beat, crush and utterly dominate Dream: No, we gotta.

Mask or Not
Space Riders AU - @onyxonline
Eve Ewe - @lavendersartistry
Gilded - @qxurugosk
This fic is for onyxonline's Space Riders AU, this time with a alternate reality in the mix! This fic is mainly centered around Quru's cultist OC Gilded and my OC, Eve Ewe! Please check Onyx and Quru out, their work is super cool!
Do note that this is non-canon to Eve's story in Space Riders, a "what-if" timeline! Want more context? Here! Want more context of Gilded's mask? Here and Here!
The sounds of glass breaking and yells echoed as Eve calmly walked to Gilded's chambers, a dark veil covering her face. It was reported to her that someone took their mask without their knowledge and later made a ruckus when they found the culprit.
Eve quietly knocked, alerting Gilded. They knew who it was but didn't say a word at first. Eve spoke up instead.
"Until your mask is retrieved, I have a veil for you to use instead. I understand it will not do much but at least it will do what it can."
Eve opened the door and quickly placed the veil near their desk by the door and closed it again.
Once Eve was out of earshot, Gilded put the culprit down and walked to their desk. They looked at the veil, touching the soft texture and fabric. They glanced back and scowled.
"Find my mask by nightfall. Or you won't see another sunrise."
-------------------
By sunset, Eve quietly entered her palace gardens. Instead of the noting Astral Jellyfish, owls of all kinds rested in every tree. She grimaced at the sight. Her mother adored owls like they were her only friends when it came to the council.
Eve sat under a willow tree, and a little owl flew down next to her. A soft 'hoo' escaped its beak as it looked up at the saddened queen. Eve gently petted its head as tears began to roll down her face.
"I did not take my queen to be a fan of birds. Quite the surprise."
Eve turned her head, eyes meeting the familiar that covered Gilded's face. She looked back down at the owl.
"Your mask was returned, that's good."
"You're avoiding my statement."
Eve went silent, hands close together. She looked down, and a shaky sigh escaped her lips.
"Owls was my mother's favorite... before..."
The queen choked back a sob, trying not to seem weak. She couldn't look weak, not in front of them. She was mighty, powerful. But how long could she stay that way, under that mask of perfection?
Gilded stepped closer, kneeling down before her. It was a first to see her break and crumble. But they knew why, the black gown and the veil were clear.
Eve's mother would turn 5800 today.
The masked cultist wiped away her tears and held her hand.
"It is normal for the mask of a queen to break. The world was cruel to you. But do not let it hold you down to the riverside. You will avenge your loss and rise as the queen you are."
Gilded tilted Eve's head, her ocean eyes still full of tears.
"Mask or not, you are my queen. You are unstoppable and you are spectacular. And I will be at your side as long as I live."

Demon I may be, but I don't think I've done anything in my life bad enough to deserve this.
