#he’d be living at the blooming grove engaged to one of cad’s siblings by now

This latest ep’s conversation between Braius and Asmodeus really hammers home what he wants out of a relationship (and why attempts to get him with Ashton/Fearne, Dorian/Orym, or Chetney, while hot, were never going to work.) This cow grew up in a religious community in a strict immigrant household. He doesn’t just want love he wants to reclaim what he feels like he lost: a firm family structure, a committed monogamous relationship, the reassuring bulwark of a community. Bells Hells are great, he’s inordinately fond of them, but they’re not going to be his dadmom or boyfriendgirlfriend or bosspope. Asmodeus though? He can be all three! Say what you will about Lawful Evil, it’s got the structure he craves.
