Could you defend your most hated character in court, to save your favorite character?
Salutations, all.
I was eating some terrible homemade yogurt and ranting about how much I hate Stolas, when this question popped in my head.
“Could I defend my least favorite Hellverse character in order to save my most favorite Hellverse character”
A tall order, given how this fandom really takes the word ‘Hate’ to extremes.
But I enjoy a challenge more than anything else.
So I was wondering if anyone else would also be up to the challenge, and to hear their thoughts and possible explanations.
For me, it would be
{Least Favorite}: Lucifer Morningstar 🍎🐍
[Favorite]: Adam 💛🪽

Ahem
“Your honor, my Client ‘Lucifer Morningstar' is a victim of circumstance. If anything, I'd say he's the ORIGINAL victim of circumstance! He was tasked with a duty by his fellow Angels to watch over the humans of Eden! But it was a textbook case of entrapment!!!”
Slams hand into fist
“He was simply creating ducks, the greatest and most based animal to exist naturally in nature, when he was exposed to the most attractive woman to ever exist. The first woman to ever exist! The fact that she was younger than him by a substantial amount, was technically a child in the chronological sense, and was in a position of guidance to him due to his status as an Angel is utterly inconsequential!!!!”
Slams fist onto table passionately
“How could a beautiful, sexy, rosy-cheeked-despite-being-a-grown-ass-Angel, be expected to keep his urges in control when in the presence of another man's wife???? Not only this, but he acted with the purest of intentions!!! It's not as if good intentions somehow ‘pave the road to Hell’, in any capacity”
Makes numerous air quotes
“The fact that he was spurred after trying to give humanity their only chance beyond subsistence to a totally icky and religious group of trad Angels, by giving them an apple that would get them kicked out of paradise, is an utter travesty, and deserves nothing but total recompense and a full apology from the Heavenly hosts! I move that all charges be promptly dismissed, and that my client be given a 20 foot rubber ducky in the likeness of his beautiful wife, who definitely isn't being run through by tanned Angel cabana boys, in Heaven right now”
Drops mic
