#my ongoing lilith stan campaign

[s-aint-elmo]

pov: the nerd whose lunch money got stolen when you were in high school is securing her best life through any unscrupulous means possible (lilith thoughts under the cut:)

when i tell you that before this i was lukewarm towards lilith bc aww they’re on opposite sides but they still put their affection for one another above their fundamental difference in belief, and that raises the interesting question of what it would take to force them (and by them i mean lilith, obvi) to choose one or the other. but now that question has been answered and lilith is THAT bitch. and i’m living for it give me a lilith whose persistence in convincing eda to join the emperor’s coven and have her curse lifted is rooted in her need to assuage her own guilt for that massive spiteful fuck-up but also, in making eda conform to her beliefs to do it, be assured that HER choice of loyalty is better and correct. give me a lilith who built her whole life on being the best she can be in the way she believes is right. give me a lilith who refuses to lose AGAIN when eda refuses to even play her game

i am perfectly willing to accept that i might be proven wrong by the subsequent episodes, but until then i will take my selfishly-motivated but still-harbouring-complex-feelings-towards-her-sister-who-she-loves-and-resents-in-conflicting-measures lilith and i will run with it, bc sister dynamics the likes of these are so fucking tasty my eyes are firmly locked onto her character now. i am Seeing. i hope whatever path they choose to take for her character they do justice to. if she’s working out her issues with eda i hope it’s cathartic for both of them. if she’s going down, i hope she goes down hard.
