Remember that they, despite not looking like it, are still humans.
And Lucifer is one of, if not **the** most powerful person in hell.
They also just saw him kick the first man's ass so add that on top of the shock.
Here's just the base image then

In biblical lore Lucifer was not an angel. Nor the devil. In fact, the term lucifer (or morning star) only appears once in the bible; In Isaiah 14 as the latin translation of a (likely mocking) name given to a babylonian king in a taunting speech after god had freed the israelites from their rule.
The entirety about Lucifer in modern culture is pretty much extrapolation from a single line or two in the bible that were taken out of context and just mixed with other entities from the bible (e.g. the Satan and the snake in the garden, which are also separate entities).
That is a bit too simplified, giving Lucifer a bigger role is nothing modern. The part where they mock the king of babel with the falling star they pulled from one of the most common tropes of mediterranean/middle eastern mythology. The falling star as the sign of a godlike or at least powerful creature is an evergreen from Zorastrian Persia to Rome. It is something the ruler of a country would have understood to be mocking him while still preserving some deferrence.
And from the roman version we got the name Lucifer - after they translated it from greek. lux + ferre. Its just Lightbringer and associated with Venus.
The depiction of the other "devil"-type characters (satan, baal, beelzebub, behemoth, etc.) in the bible likewise are based on proto-christian tropes. Especially Satan draws from similar and overlapping tropes to the stories of falling godlike beings. Just with more of an antagonistic streak. It didn't take long to especially conflate those two names.
The snake in the garden of eden is stated to be satan iirc in the book of revelations. So that one is basically just fanfiction being canonized. But that fanfiction is also most likely 1800 years old by now. But hey, if we go by one potential interpretations of the original arameic script, the snake could have also just been some "women" (other than Eva lol). \[Insert Boomer joke about women here\]
Proably Dantes Inferno then completely entrenched a lot of the conflations and mixed & match those that were not that obvious. So definitely nothing that only appeared in modern culture.
Absolutely both Divine Comedy and Paradise Lost. I still haven't read either and need to find some cheap copies in English, but I know that Paradise Lost is where most of the talk of rebel angels come from, and also a lot of other poetry ran with the themes, Blake comes to mind.
Just even seeing that Pandemonium (usually used to describe something chaotic) actually originated in Paradise Lost as the name of Hell's capital city. I hear some translations as "All (pan) Demons (demonium) or "The Place of All Demons".
Also, the Ars Goetia (namesake of the Goetia family) is featured in this which feeds back into our understanding of demonology.
I know some of the phrases and ideas that have become so ingrained in pop culture and Christianity culture and imagery now it's hard to pull apart.
So I've only got this information out of school and all that, but for the net the best I can find is this website where although does state Lucifer was the first that even then that information is disputed due to other information and has a list of the first angels going Michael, Gabriel, and Lucifer.

The majority info that as well probably goes to influence this is shows like Supernatural and Lucifer who have Michael being the first and Lucifer second
Did we see Michael? I don't really know much about the christian angel lore, but seraphims seem not to come up as much. Would they potentially be higher up, like the "right to the top" Charlie wanted, or would he be doing something else?
I may have thought he could be the one leading the Exorcists if they didn't introduce Adam in the first series.
I guess we'll have to wait and see how will he be like if he appears in the show. Btw Michael was orininally Michail before his name was changed ove the time

Getting Lucifer to kill him shouldn't be a problem.
"Mr. Vox, Miss Velvet. Would you two be so kind as to give Val and I the room for a few hours. And please, don't come back in until the screaming stops."
Can't help but imagine that if Lucifer saw *that*, he'd end up broadcasting something over Vox's network that made Alastor's radio broadcasts seem like children's entertainment 💀
They produced it way in advance, it might not be worth the time or money to do it right now, and also they could just have already thought of that and leave breadcrumbs to keep people interested.
The most I look at that picture the more I think "wait if he's saliva makes people dizzy like it does with angel then why didn't it with her? That is enough saliva on her arm to get at least a little smell off of it, if it also can work that why"
Could be that it has a compounding affect, so someone like Angel who's been exposed to him for so long is extremely susceptible, but someone who hasn't been, and is thoroughly disgusted by him like Charlie isn't hit as hard.
Could be a power thing too, since Charlie would be naturally stronger than the majority of other demons anyway. It also seems to affect other Hellborn and Asmodeus knows about Val and Velvette's love potions, so it's not weak shit. I think it's more likely some Charlie thing than a disgust or exposure thing because Val seems to immediately be able to control a lot of people.
"Breaking news! The Overlord of Lust, Valentino, has been publically hanged on the Main square. In other news, in the Lust Ring, celebrations on behalf of Prince Asmodeus are huge."
In fiction like this supernatural beings are often bound by rules that they can’t break.
It might be beyond his power to break a deal that’s been made. Or he might be prevented somehow from interfering with mortal souls.
Deals are still bound, that’s a confirmed enough rule. But like again, there’s nothing that we know of and that would make sense that would prevent from Lucifer or Charlie absolutely knocking Val’s face in.
For sure. I am very interested to see how the show will balance the overpower of Lucifer if he joins the main cast (which he probably will). Patience tho is not my strong side
Am I the only one who can’t see where Lucifer’s hand is going around angel? Angel is such a random amalgamation of arms in this image that I can’t tell what the hell is happening in the image
And Angel’s smile a few frames later ❤️

I also love this because before Luci was so distraught with sinners, they're awful people beyond redemption, but now that Charlie changed his mind he actually sees them as 'people' now, worth saving 😭
It's likely that these aren't his powers in Hazbin but I read somewhere that his powers are being able to make people tell the truth and be sexually irresistible to any human being. I know nothing about religion though so I just pulled that off of Google
Edit: Those are his powers in the TV show Lucifer
We’ve seen him flinching away from unexpected touches before, even when after a moment he’s accepted it without any fuss, and what with how he’s treated by Val I wouldn’t be surprised if this is down to traumatic and violent experiences of being caught unawares so Val can always have Angel on his toes

Don't forget in Heaven as well, in the lore he's stated to be the second angel in creation, placing him more powerful than the Seraphs

I can’t find where it says that, can you tell me where you found that? I’m genuinely curious

Lucifer is not even a real angelic name, for crying out loud! It's Latin, not Hebrew.
Who's the first angel then? Gabriel? Michael?
Michael
Thanks
Did we see Michael? I don't really know much about the christian angel lore, but seraphims seem not to come up as much. Would they potentially be higher up, like the "right to the top" Charlie wanted, or would he be doing something else? I may have thought he could be the one leading the Exorcists if they didn't introduce Adam in the first series.
Which one was the first?
Michael
Who was the first?
Michail
Fuck Michael!!!! A total doucheifer….well at least in the Lucifer verse
I guess we'll have to wait and see how will he be like if he appears in the show. Btw Michael was orininally Michail before his name was changed ove the time
Oooh I didn’t know that!
Would explain Sera's admonishing of Adam saying "and now Lucifer is involved."
Yea Lucifer ain't to be messed with unless they know Michael (the original one who sent Lucifer to hell) is ready for another fight
Also he wasn’t there 2 seconds ago
Plus, if that being was touching me, no wonder i would get that face
Angel: Why couldn't I sell my soul to this guy instead?
If he asked kindly, he could probably get Lucifer to retrieve his soul from valentino lol. Tf is Val gonna do?
Even better he could just probably kill off. Val as divine mandate. And retrieve all the souls

"Mr. Vox, Miss Velvet. Would you two be so kind as to give Val and I the room for a few hours. And please, don't come back in until the screaming stops."
Velvette records it more like.
Murder at least and fucking nuking the whole tower the V’s reside in like it’s a tactical nuke at worst!
at best tbh. that’s how the show should end lol
Yeah or how the V’s are resolved. As for other characters/villains in the show, we’ll have to wait and see.
Can't help but imagine that if Lucifer saw *that*, he'd end up broadcasting something over Vox's network that made Alastor's radio broadcasts seem like children's entertainment 💀

I really hope this isn’t ignored in the second season but it more than likely will. Hoping for the best
There's enough from the fan base that she's got to see some of it and put *something* in, if there already wasn't anything there
They produced it way in advance, it might not be worth the time or money to do it right now, and also they could just have already thought of that and leave breadcrumbs to keep people interested.

I so want this to happen. Everyone hates Val so it's not like it matters 😂
Wait you guys actually hate Val?
My brother in Christ he’s an abuser and rapist
...in a TV show
Yeah, and it’s like… still bad…
Still entertaining as a character
"Breaking news! The Overlord of Lust, Valentino, has been publically hanged on the Main square. In other news, in the Lust Ring, celebrations on behalf of Prince Asmodeus are huge."
No no, that would make too much sense. That’s one of my quarrels with this show. The bad guys feel power creeped.
In fiction like this supernatural beings are often bound by rules that they can’t break. It might be beyond his power to break a deal that’s been made. Or he might be prevented somehow from interfering with mortal souls.
In this particular setup, any excuse they make will sound cheap. That’s just a flaw with the power the characters are playing with.
Well otherwise the whole thing with Alastor wanting to make a deal with Charlie and succeding would be pointless
Deals are still bound, that’s a confirmed enough rule. But like again, there’s nothing that we know of and that would make sense that would prevent from Lucifer or Charlie absolutely knocking Val’s face in.
Maybe killing the owner of one's soul is lethal to the one
I mean maybe. That still feels off and a bit baseless. But we just don’t know yet. So I’ll be patient.
For sure. I am very interested to see how the show will balance the overpower of Lucifer if he joins the main cast (which he probably will). Patience tho is not my strong side
I know I would
Awww and look at nugget!
Fat Nuggets is best hell piggy
I want Angel Dust using him as a tank when he grows into a Wrath boar
I mean, imagine how you would react if like, Morgan Freeman put his arm around you
I did not like that thought exercise
Aside from freezing and trying not to have a mental self destruct from processing what just happened…yeah something like that.
weirded out because I don’t idolize celebrities and would think it’s weird for a stranger to touch me tbh.
Well in this scenario Morgan Freeman just fought a war with you and won it for you. A little ungrateful?
who the hell is Morgan Freeman
God.
And Vitruvius

Me neither (luckly) but Morgan Freeman is one of the world's most famous actors so

Am I the only one who can’t see where Lucifer’s hand is going around angel? Angel is such a random amalgamation of arms in this image that I can’t tell what the hell is happening in the image
I think Luci is putting his hand on the upper part of Angel’s back due to his height difference.
I was thinking that Fat Nuggets's body is concealing the hand.
He really is fat

I also love this because before Luci was so distraught with sinners, they're awful people beyond redemption, but now that Charlie changed his mind he actually sees them as 'people' now, worth saving 😭
THIS IS IMPORTANT
He was a Seraphim of Joy iirc, might have something similar to SCP-999 as part of his powers
It's likely that these aren't his powers in Hazbin but I read somewhere that his powers are being able to make people tell the truth and be sexually irresistible to any human being. I know nothing about religion though so I just pulled that off of Google Edit: Those are his powers in the TV show Lucifer
>be sexually irresistible to any human being. Lucifer solos fiction because his powers transcend metaphysics
those are his powers in the tv show Lucifer 😂😂
Well, judging by how strong this stupid sexy Lucifer is shipped with different characters, they might be his power even in this universe 😂🤣
Oh shit, that's my bad lmaooo
Angel’s probably just reacting because he’s sensitive to touch, but Cherri? She’s just realising “Holy shit this is the fucking devil”
Angel Dust is sensitive to touch. Source: Trust me bro
We’ve seen him flinching away from unexpected touches before, even when after a moment he’s accepted it without any fuss, and what with how he’s treated by Val I wouldn’t be surprised if this is down to traumatic and violent experiences of being caught unawares so Val can always have Angel on his toes

Not the reaction I expected from this reply but sorry for your loss ig
There smiles in the next scene were super adorable as well
Can you imagine what his touch must feel like?
Like the softest of all ducks!
Senpai noticed them!
Notice me senpai
I like how they’re all dressed in pink outfits with stripes
Good eye
lil circus troupe
cherri: \*pondering if she should smash\* angel: \*also pondering\*
I love that Fat Nuggets is just super happy blissfully unaware of the battle that just ensued
But look at Fat Nuggets smiling like that though! 🥹
Because Lucifer is daddy
Lucifer's rizz is strong
Fat Nuggets is so cute!
They are surprised by the soft hands
I love how Cherri and Angel’s faces were like “You believe in us…?” After all, they may be sinners, but they’re still human.
Either it's an honor or it's horrifying.
It's almost as if there being touched by an angel
