#and then they'd be getting sucker punched twice losing solomon and his refraction in what feels like a short period

i wonder how much longer the devils' lifespan is compared to a human. because the kings have been around for AGES when you take into account the fact that they were all full fledged adults with their countries well established by the time solomon first made contact with them. but also what's been messing me up about the longevity of their lives is the fact that the mc meets children! (from satan's bath card preview)

and from this conversation with sitri and ppyong devils are no longer being born because lilith, mother of all devils, has disappeared along with god and solomon. (ch3)

of course we know solomon is dead but the other two's existences are kinda up in the air at the moment. and with the fact that they all disappeared a long time ago its been. a few millenia which means any devil children have been babies and children for. a VERY long time from a humn perspective. and in that time many generations have sprung up between solomon's death and the mc being born. but also time passes differently in hell (likely slower from the fact that mc wasn't aware that the anniversary of their parents' death approached and passed (in ch4), as well as the fact that sitri says solomon spent a century in hell when solomon only made it to his 50s on earth (unles pretty busy has changed this for the story but i dont think they have)

with how all the devil's act you really would think that solomon disappeared just yesterday to them! thousands of years have passed on earth but theyre still heartbroken like they last spoke to him just last week! how short is the life span of a human to them. is it just like a blink and you're gone. are they aware of how limited their time with the mc is. because even with hell being so technologically avanced there's death every day. there is no cure for death. you will die and they still haven't even coped well with the death of a man that lived so long ago.
#cliffnotes/.txt#whb#what in hell is bad#whb spoilers#its just. AUGH.#i know theres also a likelihood that mc will go back to earth long before they die#or at least thats the plan#but would their entire time in hell just feel like a week to the demons?#its just sad to think about#and then they'd be getting sucker punched twice losing solomon and his refraction in what feels like a short period#of time for them#also thinking abt if the mc were to have a child with one of the 72 upper devils or kings#its likely that they'd die pretty early on in that chil'd life yknow#regardless of whether that child grows up in hell or on earth considering unholycs i believe also live long#(ik that tie in was likely just done for fun but im using it anyways)#so like. idk.#has pretty busy put that much thought into any of this and the cohesiveness of their own narrative?#most likely not.#will i overthink it anyways?#absolutely i have adhd and anxiety all i do is overthink#so sorry for long media analysis in the tags#it will happen again.#edit: nawt me being vagued in the tags w/ a point i wasnt even making lmao#the bit abt minhyeok's substory in ch4 was abt being disoriented bc of the difference#to the point where the mc did not notice the approach of such an important date tho there is a lot going on also#not 'oh i think its been a year'. thats stupid.#id give the events of ch1-4 like. a span of a week in hell tops. barely even that if im bein honest#if itd been a whole year i dont think mc would still be trying to adapt
