A Moment Apart: Mammon & The Crow

A Moment Apart: Mammon & The Crow

Just a little somethin’ somethin’ that I wrote. 

I was inspired by this song. 💕💕💕

Hope y’all like it. SFW, Angst/fluff/feelings; no smut. Mammon x MC mentioned but not really the main focus.

Here is my masterlist.

Mammon sits on the ground, legs crossed like a kindergartener at storytime. His eyes are cast down, looking away as if the tombstone in front of him could see him. He rests his elbow on his knee and holds his head up in his hand, the other hand making trails through the grass. When he speaks, his voice is hoarse, barely above a whisper. “Sorry it’s been so long.”

The other day I was browsing in Pinterest and I saw a model and I thought: wow, this guy remembers me to someone…

So, the next what I did was try to remember who it loked like and boom! i realized something...

THIS HANDSOME MAN IS LITERALLY EQUAL TO JULIAN FROM THE ARCANA GAMEEEEEEE

I don't know if it's an idea of ​​mine or really they are similar

HAHAA

I really wanted to share this on the internet

Thanks, have a good day 🤣

hey, I hope you're properly resting and caring for that arm! no rush on the answer, but I wanted your take - what do you think archangel lucifer said/offered to mammon to make him so endlessly loyal way back when in heaven? it's been a burning question for me ever since they brought it up and I'd like to know what you think 👀

The Theory of Mammon's Loyalty

I am, thank you! I'll hopefully be able to answer some longer asks this weekend too 🤞

I have a suspicion that the personalities of the brothers didn't change that much when they went from angels in the Celestial Realm to being demons in the Devildom.

We get some clues to this sprinkled throughout the game, eg Lucifer being a very haughty Archangel, tales of Beel and Belphie's closeness (and Lilith), and Asmo having enjoyed his status as heaven's jewel.

However, very little is told of how Mammon and Levi used to be. We know Mammon is a Fallen Warrior, which is a big clue, and we know he used to babysit Beel, Belphie and Lilith but wasn't very good at it, the younger angels running rings around him 😅

It's clear even from that little information though that Mammon was always very family orientated, and when they fall, it's him who goes around checking on everyone and making sure Lucifer is okay, reassuring his elder brother that none of them regret following him.

Asmo tells MC that Mammon was originally under Michael's guidance, but the powerful Archangel couldn't work out how to manage an angel with such a determination to break the rules. When Michael eventually turned to his superior, Lucifer, for advice, Lucifer went to meet with Mammon - and from that moment on, Mammon was loyal to Lucifer.

Lucifer, we are told, finds Mammon adorable despite how exasperating he can be as a rulebreaker, and he himself has confessed that Mammon is his favourite brother. This would seem to contradict the fact that Lucifer also punishes Mammon the most but...

His loyalty to Lucifer is absolute, but his loyalty to Michael was not.

I've written before about how Mammon is the most angelic of the demon brothers, from his unchanged eyes to his "anonymous devil" act and his dedication to being MC's guardian demon.

My theory is that Mammon is drawn to the goodness inside somebody. All demons are drawn to shiny human souls, undirtied by corruption, and thus MC attracts all demons to themself. However, none are at MC's side as frequently as Mammon, the demon who cried his heart out when MC appeared to die in his arms.

He more than any other is badly affected by harm befalling MC, and he just so happens to have a past history of helping those in need instead of - as his sin would dictate - helping those filled with greed.

Whether it's an innate goodness or lack of greed that Mammon is drawn to, Lucifer has it. And Michael does not.

One thing all the fallen angels have in common is that they put their family before their duty, their love for their sister before unquestioning obedience, and their loyalty to Lucifer and his cause before loyalty to the Celestial Realm.

From a human perspective, taking religion out of the equation, they did the morally good thing - they sought to save a life, their sister "guilty" of no more than loving someone.

And the other angels, the ones who didn't join Lucifer's cause, who didn't attempt to save Lilith, who turned their back on their family... they did the morally wrong thing.

Someone who could do that is not somebody Mammon would have respect for. He above all is led by his heart and his desire to protect, not destroy. Even as an Avatar of Sin he unleashes his Greed upon himself and nobody else, incapable of corrupting people who are good, no matter how deep down that good may be buried.

And as MC has discovered in more recent lessons, Lucifer is innately good. Beneath the hurt and the guilt and the pride is the man who gave up all his tremendous power for the love of his family, and who still will defy those with more power than himself to keep his family safe.

It's my belief that Mammon helps Lucifer, both by challenging his rules and suffering the consequences, and by his genuine emotional support when nobody else dares try.

And in turn, Lucifer protects Mammon, helping him in his angelic deeds, keeping him enrolled in the Academy, ensuring that the Fallen Warrior need not go back to war again.

In summary, I don't think Lucifer said or did anything to win Mammon's loyalty the very first time they met. I think Mammon saw Lucifer for exactly who he was, good and bad, and recognised that it was the good that would ultimately guide him.

It was Mammon who arrived first in hell after Lucifer, plumetting after his brother with no hesitation. And Mammon's ability to truly see Lucifer as an indivual and the loyalty that inspires, one that goes above and beyond needing to know all the answers to why Lucifer does the things he does, is exactly why Lucifer loves Mammon most.

"I'd Spend My Last Dime, Just to See You Smile" Mammon/Avatar of Greed (Obey Me!)

Mammon thought today would be the day things would go right for in his life. He found a sweet amount of Grimm just lying about on his way out of house for school that morning, was able to hold more than a thirty second conversation with MC during passing period without any of her other suitors interfering, and on the way home he was able to purchase a pair of designer sneakers he'd been wanting since their release last month with aid of his pride and joy Goldie. Yet once he returned home, that's when everything turned sour. Mammon was about to drop his bag off in his room before heading in the direction of MC's to hopefully hang out with her for a half hour or so before dinner. Possibly work up his nerve to ask the pretty human girl who has been living with him and his brothers for what seemed like a long time. It was only right that he should the one to ask her out and become her boyfriend, right? He was the first demon she chose to make a pact with, after all. With that little detail being very special to the avatar of greed, it sparked emotions bigger and greater than simple adoration or gratitude. Though he decided to put aside his pride and his stubborness to put all his cards in front of her, the action into fulfilling those plans had to be delayed for the time being. At the moment, he was caught in an ugly confrontation with Lucifer.

"Whaddya mean you are kicking me out, Lucifer? Don't ya think that's a bit extreme, even for you?" Mammon shrieked in reply at the consequence for not paying his recent bills that were piling on Goldie's weary shoulders and were about to give under the weight of its owner's irresponsibility.

Lucifer, debating whether he should just leave in the middle of discussion for Mammon to figure what he really meant or choke him out because hearing him yell for the others to hear gave him a pounding headache, sighed. Massaging his aching temples as he tried to find how to explain his decision in easy, simple words in his extensive vocabulary. "It's only until you find yourself a real job. It is high time you learned how to fend for yourself instead of leeching off others all the time. If you continue to be this careless and irresponsible, you'll never have a decent future for yourself. And I and our brothers refuse to bail you out anymore. Get an actual job or find other living arrangements. If you also want repossession of your credit card, you'll have to pay back all that money you owe on it through hard work. I'll give you until evening to come back with a job. Don't waste it," without another word, Lucifer tucked the card away inside his pocket and left a flabbergasted Mammon behind.

Though he was furious with Lucifer and how everything he said was law, Mammon knew better than to write his threat as a joke. He needed a job and quick, because if he didn't the great Mammon couldn't protect his beloved human from everyone else back home. That being the motivation to find work, he surprisingly landed himself a job at Hell's Kitchen and another at Hocus Pocus. It was sad, though. The only reason they hired him so quickly and with as little as a short interview, they were both very short-staffed as is. It did not bother him too much since the pay was good and hours were fairly reasonable. In less than a month, Mammon was able to pay off almost all the payments he had on Goldie and he felt having a job wasn't as terrible as he once thought at the start. It made him feel more reliable and gave him the sudden desire to use his money for someone other than himself. For the first time, he wanted to give something to MC rather than just take like he always had.

A month or so passed, Mammon had paid everything off and had enough money to spend on that little sparkling object he often saw in the front window of Majolish from his walk to and from his two jobs. After work one day, he purchased it without hesitation and walked back to the House of Lamentation with a proud stride in his step. His heart jumping nervously in his chest, each leap growing with intensity, he knocked on MC's bedroom door and waited anxiously for permission to enter.

"H-Hey, MC. If you are busy, I'll make this really quick. There's actually somethin' I wanna give ya," stumbling over his words the second the door opens and blushing madly as he dramatically attempts to hide the bright pink bag behind his back after his eyes meet hers. "Look, if you don't want it, I'll just..." averting his eyes as he tries desperately to collect himself before he melts into a puddle of embarrassment but stiffens as he watches MC climb off the bed to approach him and seize the bag from his clammy grasp.

"Thanks, Mammon, you didn't have to get me anything," her giddy grin causing the embarrassment he felt disappear as his chest swelled with excitement and relief while she pulls the charm bracelet out from under the complementary tissue paper. "It's beautiful... Thank you, Mammon. You're really sweet, you know that? Can I try it on?" Beaming with joy, the avatar of greed reflexively grasped for her hand and replied softly, "Hey, MC, let me help ya. Put it on, I mean." Amused but also charmed by his behavior today, MC only nodded and watched as Mammon latched the bracelet to her wrist.

"I love you, MC..." Her heart at the brink of stopping at Mammon's declaration, though that feeling of temporary shock became relief when she found resolve shining brightly in his deep, dark blue eyes. "I don't want to be with anyone else but you. I don't want you to be with anyone but me. I was the first demon you made a pact with when you first came to Devildom and I want to be the first and hopefully the last you'll ever love. I'd give my last dime to make you smile, I'd settle for the uncool things if it'd make you closer to me. I want to love you, MC. I want to become a bigger part of your life. Is that somethin' you're okay with me doin?"

His whole body was on edge as MC entered his personal space, threaded her fingers through his soft white hair, and pressed their lips together. His entire body flushed with heat at the feeling of her every curve molded to fit his body, her mouth interlocked with his, and her heart racing next to his. Once Mammon could process what was going on, he swung an arm around her waist and cradled the back of her head with his free hand. Gripping handfuls of hair in between his fingers as he kissed her vigorously, greedily, desperately like he'd soon wake from a dream that felt too good to be real. Once they had parted from each other, Mammon felt MC's soft hands cup his cheeks and his heart doing backflips inside his chest as she stared at him adoringly. "You really have a werid way of asking people out, but guess that's just apart of your charm. You are already the first and last man I'll ever love. I was just waiting for you to return those feelings. I love you, too, Mammon," MC answered with a bright, joyous grin.

Mammon was just about to pull MC in for another kiss until he heard her ask. "So, where's the reciept for this bracelet, Mammon? You didn't steal this, did you?"
