wings theory and What if Solange

from /hhg/ - Hazbin Hotel #301

Found this, which I believe wasn't saved, in the end:

>>Lucifer has wings, charlie has wings as well.

>why do I have a feeling charlie wings are really cute
-
>I wonder if they'll have seraph wings (i. e. 3 pair)?
-
>I hope so because that be really cool
-
>or Lucifer wings can be half angel half demon?
-
>Eh. Probably (i.e. feathery), but with black feathers.
-
>yeah, I can see that
-
>Maybe as a fallen angel, they have a really damaged look to them. (...)not just pigmented, more like burnt black, with scars or missing bits.
-
>not a bad idea, anon
-
>Here's some more ideas actually

>>Lucifer's fatal sin was pride
>>One of the many things he had to be proud of was his appearance
>>Specifically, he had the most beautiful wings of any angel

>>Part of the punishment in being cast out of Heaven was to be stripped of the feature that he was most vain about
>>His wings are no longer radiant curtains of beautiful light, they're twisted, burnt, bony things that are sickening to look at
>>That's why he keeps them hidden unless he's using them
>>He can still fly just fine, that power is more supernaturally rooted than physical, but his wings are no longer something he'd want to show off.

>>Charlie's wings look much like his did, when he was still an archangel, but with a twist
>>6, 3 pairs of beautiful, strong wings with a thick plumage...
>>...but all as black as the deepest, darkest, starless night sky
>>in certain lighting, they even seem to ABSORB light, reflecting almost none of it, the shadow they cast being of a lighter hue than they are
>>while Lucifer was proud of his old wings, Charlie's deeply ashamed of her own, though, not for the reason one might think
>>being a Hellborne resident, the only angels she ever met where the fallen ones: her father and his old comrades from way back when...
>>...and the Exterminators (if they can even be called angels)
>>considering how much she loves her people, despite their flaws and vices, she would absolutely loathe to resemble something that sends her world into a state of terrified hiding every year
>>thus, she keeps her wings hidden at all times - only her parents know she has them
>>she also knows of her father's mangled wings, and, when she was younger, devoted a lot of her studies into a finding a "cure" for them
>>when her father exposed them to her during an argument, and proclaimed that their loss was Heaven's punishment, she also became afraid of loosing her own wings
>>since then, this had become her largest secret - not even Vaggie knows about them
>>as for Lucifer, her daughter's attitude regarding her own wings is just another, albeit minor point of contention
>>while by default, his own wings look sickly and damaged, whenever he needs to call upon a power higher than his own - that which he truly gained from God, no matter what he claims - they return to their former glory, as does his whole being, though, now with the fury of a punishing "death" angel
>>this has been quite handy in dealing with other Helldwellers that were born from the darkness, such as renegades from the Van Eldritch family's kind

Found another one!

>What if Solange wasn't born naturally? What if she was "born" in the virginpoint timeline?
>>Honestly just want to see a fight between dictator charlie and her heavenly counterpart
-
>Technically speaking, Solagne really WASN'T born naturally, as Angels tend not to mate or procreate - it's another thing that set Lucifer (and, eventually, Solagne's own mother, Adina) aside from the rest.
-
>the radical changes in Hell had far-reaching ramifications across all realms
>Earht saw a sharp return to puritan conservatism, and the rise of new, stringent, collectivist regimes - a hard push away from both liberalism and the "libertine havoc" that "engulfed the West"
>this had the positive effect of quelling troubles in the Middle East (under re-emerging Arab Socialist and Nationalist regimes), and stabilizing a lot of Africa and Latin America...
>...but all under iron heels

>in Heaven God's eyes wept when Lilith's life was extinguished, and the other shed a tear when Lucifer was struck down
>with the New Accords signed with Hell's new ruler, Exterminators became obsolete overnight, and, as per the deal's requirements, were systematically exterminated - an ironic end, by some accounts
>none where spared, all perished...
>...all, but one...
>despite her own views, the archangel Adina spoke out in favor of one the destroyers, revealing it, or rather, her, to be her daughter
>her deception and intrigue discovered, a long trial awaited the former taskmaster, the one said to have risen to replace Lucifer (with some whispering that her own agenda was spurred on by her own, unrequited affections towards the Lightbringer, which were betrayed by his rebellion, and completely extinguished by his downfall)
>now, she faced a potentially similar fate, as she was thrust into the council of Heaven, as God, seemingly exhausted by his own Creation, turned to slumber, as humanity marched on under new Orders, and Hell re-invented torture and oppression
-
>from this Aether, mired in bureaucracy and internal politics, nobody would've expected a true paradise to rise out
>the Last Exterminator, Solagne, would eventually rise to replace her mother among the Archangels, and enact changes - changes no-one thought would be possible
>her life spared by Mercy, out of her mother's Love, which brought upon her Liberation from her role as a mindless drone, she came to lead the Heavenly Council under these words, creating a Utopia for all who were deemed fit to enter Heaven
>a number which continued to dwindle, year after year, as Hell and Earth (once again) were gripped by totalitarianism
>while it was general knowledge that the Heavens wouldn't interfere in worldly affairs anymore, after the last prophet they sent, the lack of new arrivals were a source of increasing concern among the angels, and especially for the Forgiven Destroyer
>and while Earth was to be left alone until the rapture, no-one said a word about Hell

>while she had expected a lot many things, the grey, tombstone-like buildings (with the odd, oppressive tower or fortress among them) and angular streets were not what the Exterminator-turned-Archangel had expected
>however, it did make finding Pandemonium rather easy...
>...until the Flak towers forced her to land, as sirens wailed across what was once Pentagram City, now simply known as "Lot 00"
>on the ground, she was soon surrounded by faceless troops, who had her head covered in a bag, put in a vehicle, and driven off to God knows where...
>...when the bag was finally removed, she found herself, on her knees, with her arms and legs tied (and her wings pulled to the side so as to keep her grounded by the pain), facing the most powerful person in Hell...
>...who stared back at her, momentarily wide eyed, as the two briefly thought they were looking into a warped mirror
-
>after the initial shock, the two began eyeing each other - Solagne with badly hidden curiosity, and Charlie with suspicion disguised as disdain
>the angel wore white trousers, black ballroom shoes, a gray suit coat, cyan blue shirt and white thigh, her black hair tied into a mid-level ponytail, revealing her pallid (even for an angel) face, the natural dark highlights around her eyes feeling particularly striking against them, especially with her electric blue irises and dark pupils
>and across and above her, the uniform-clad ruler of Hell, wearing a red-lined black leather greatcoat with a black shirt and trousers underneath, held up by a belt buckle that shared the same symbol on her peaked cap, that rested on the table beside her chair: an upright pentagram, with three pairs of wings surrounding it, the lower pair "hugging" it, the middle extending outward, and the top one flared open, pointing diagonally upward in both directions
>on her feet were jakboots, and her blonde hair was tied in a tight braid, her demonic eyes glowing in the dim light
>the only parts ruining this model image of a dictator where the rosy cheeks and the black tip of her nose
>she also had her horns out, while Solagne kept her halo hidden
>standing up from her seat, she marched over to the bound angel, walking circles around her kneeling form while her goons stepped back, letting her large wings return to their natural position, before suddenly kneeling down, and grabbing her by the chin, her claws digging into her flesh, though, the angel didn't even flinch
>the Queen's eyes widened slightly
>"Exterminator..." she hissed, causing Solagne's eyes to widen as well
>she did not expect to be found out so soon
>"What do they want?" the tyrant asked, coldly "I'm fairly certain we have NOT fallen behind with the slaughter."
>suppressing another flinch at that last word, the angel tried to smile
>"Actually, that's not why I'm here." she replied, glad she didn't stutter

Aaaand, that's about it.
