I'VE FINALLY FOUND A THEME SONG FOR ADRIAN AND IT'S EVEN WRITTEN AND SUNG BY HIS VOICE CLAIM!!!!
I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS SO NOW I'M GONNA ANALYSE THE LYRICS
Off and over the waves
In a town far out of the way
In his mind he’s already made it, he’s
Daft but always elated and
"Off and over the waves// In a town far out of the way// In his mind he's already made it, he's daft but always elated"- Before dying, Adrian was very happy go lucky. Even more so as a child. He had dreams of making it big even as a child.
Heard he’s tippin’ away somewhere
Off away in the clouds, ah sure
He was a kid telling tall tales
He’s probably still telling tall tales and
"Heard he's tipping away somewhere// Off away in the clouds, ah sure// He was a kid telling tall tales// He's probably still telling tall tales"- When he was young and alive, Adrian was always telling stories to people about moving to the US and being successful during the roaring 20s. Adrian was born in 1914 and moved to NYC in 1925 meaning he would've been edging towards being a teenager at the time.
Has one thing on his mind
And it calls to him like a siren
His head is always a ways off shore
After some dream that he begged God for
"Has one thing on his mind// And it calls to him like a siren// His head is always a ways off shore// After some dream that he begged God for"- He didn't intend on becoming a criminal while alive. Adrian originally came to the US to be a performer/singer. I got that idea because Adrian's voice claim can not only sing but he can play several different instruments so I hc that Adrian can do the same. If Adrian was never a con artist, he would've been a performer.
(Chorus)
Day darkens and so does the road
Not all of fortune is silver and gold
Now tell me you found one to have and to hold
‘cause here there be monsters
But that’s just from what I’ve been told
This chorus refers to the US at the time. During the 20s and beyond, there were very strict opinions and laws on immigration. The WASPS (White Anglo Saxon Protestants) were heavily preferred. Basically meaning white British protestants were "better". Adrian wasn't British, he was Irish and the Irish were disliked due to stereotypes surrounding their relationship with alcohol and their religion being mainly Catholicism. This meant that discrimination was common ("...here there be monsters// But that's just from what I've been told").
Maybe you found the spot on the map
But lost the kid on the way to the mark
Tell me now were you digging for gold
Or digging yourself in a hole?
I like to think that this part is talking about how Adrian lost his happy go lucky attitude after arriving in NYC and experiencing all the shit going on at the time ("Maybe you found that spot on the map// But lost the kid on the way to the mark"). Instead of living the life of his dreams, Adrian was dragged into criminality which didn't end well for him ("Tell me now were you digging for gold// Or digging yourself in a hole?")
Now tell me “now, where’s the head in the clouds?”
Now tell me “now, where’s the bright eyed lad?”
Now tell me “now, where’s the kid tellin’ tall tales?”
Building on my last point, these lyrics reference how Adrian lost who he was when he was younger after he left Ireland. He became colder and more distant towards anyone and everyone.
Day darkens and so does the road
Not all of fortune is silver and gold
Now tell me you found one to have and to hold
‘cause here there be monsters
Believe that, just trust me I know
Chorus again. This time it makes implications about Adrian's death. I've decided that he was set up and shot by police during a failed robbery. In other words, he was sorta used as a decoy and literally took a hit for it. His ambition for money became his hamartia.
And I catch a glimpse of me mind
Now she calls to me like a siren
Saying “how'd you get so fake”
Not official but I'm thinking this part could be talking about the oc that @gummygoatgalaxy is currently working on for the Helluverse. Hopefully once we figure out a story for them.
Off and over the waves
In a town entirely fake
In his mind he should be elated
Now, don’t tell me that you’re jaded lad
In Hell now. Adrian sold his soul to Alastor for power and to make a name for himself. Something he never did when he was alive. He typically tries to downplay his contract with Alastor by trying to focus on the slither of benefit from it ("In a town entirely fake// In his mind he should be elated"). The word "jaded" is pretty interesting here. It means bored or lacking enthusiasm usually after having too much of something. However, it's also Irish slang for being physically tired or exhausted. In this context, it could be Adrian saying he's bored of being Alastor's pet as much as he denies it...but also physically tired of it.
Heard he’s tipping away somewhere
Probably telling his tall tales and
Doing a job that he begged God for
Don’t be forgettin’ to thank God for…
In Hell and under contract by Alastor, Adrian ends up being the Hazbin Hotel's butler because according to Alastor it was necessary. Being a butler means supervising other staff (one of those staff being Niffty...yikes), providing personal service to guests (Angel will take advantage of that 💀), ensuring everything runs smoothly and more. It isn't Adrian's dream job but surely he can learn to embrace it...right?
Damn my fingers hurt but that's my breakdown for this song and it's relevance to Adrian. As always, feel free to invade my ask thing!

For the third option, tell me the name of your oc and some info for me to look at. This is mainly to help my Trolls mutuals draw Asha with their oc should they choose to. Same goes for second option, just drop their name in the comments or my asks.

Asha's relationship with Clay
FUNNY YOU SHOULD ASK
I ship them (sorry Cliva fans-). After a lot of brainstorming, their ship name is...
✨Rusty Radio✨
- Slow burn relationship
- Clay is the voice of reason and the antihistamine to Asha's allergy to feelings
I plan on developing on this further because I don't know how to explain it as of now but here's some incorrect quotes:
Asha: I'm incredibly fast at maths.
Clay: Alright, what's 30 x 17?
Asha: 47
Clay: Not even close.
Asha: But it was fast.
Asha: I want to wake up with you every day for the rest of our lives.
Clay: I wake up at 4:30am.
Asha: ...
Asha: I want to see you at some point every day for the rest of our lives.
Asha: I'm going to take you out
Clay: Great, it's a date!
Asha: I meant that as a threat.
Clay: See you at five!
Clay: Can you please be serious for five minutes?
Asha: My record is four but I think I can do it.
She's watching her younger siblings do dumb shit with absolutely zero intention of intervening. A true older sibling, I must say.
Just Asha

Asha belongs to my friend @k4nzi
Of course the link ain't working 💀
The song is "Siren" by Colm R. McGuiness and it's available on YouTube and steaming sites!

It's giving "wtf did you say to her" with the way Asha is positioned in a sorta protective position over Pippy. 😂
Up to no good 😈

Pity for the fool who pissed them off 🤣
