In hindsight, it is kind of nuts Vox got that many songs.

Humans take showers. Angels just violently ruffle in the nearest patch of divine dust.

Lute: “What are you doing?”
Adam: “Wing care, bitch.”

Sera and Emily wouldn’t know peak comedy if it slapped them in the face.

I made one tiny improvement to a heart and suddenly everyone’s acting like I desecrated the whole concept of romance.

I’m underappreciated. Severely.

Collection of totally accurate historical documents featuring me being a flawless commander, Lute being terrifyingly loyal, the exorcists being a pack of barely supervised maniacs, and Vaggie catching divine strays like it’s her full-time job.

Basically a normal day in Heaven’s finest military unit. Don’t question the archives.

Like I said before, he's mine and there is nothing you can do about it. Cry if you want.

I don't care.

Bad influence? Please. I am expanding her education.

Lesson one: yes, I am the First Man, and yes, I deserve six wings.
Lesson two: apples are suspicious as fuck.
Lesson three: pears are acceptable.

Emily’s doing great. I’m doing better. Heaven is healing.

Posting this mostly because I had it saved on my computer without the artist name added. So pls help to figure out who it is? :c

A toy story parody.

What if Adam just listened instead of cutting her off, honestly fits the interaction in my humble opinion.

Great, babe. Love the rage. Big fan of the dramatic breakdown. Very metal. Very loyal. Ten out of ten grief performance.

But did you have to break my fucking records?

I get it, I’m dead, everyone’s devastated, Heaven’s finest piece of divine masculinity got taken off the stage way too early, tragedy of the century, whatever.

But that guitar was innocent.

Sir Pentious ended up in Heaven after dying in a selfless act to protect his friends. He was a sinner, but his final choice proved he had genuinely changed, and Heaven had to deal with the fact that redemption was real.

So I keep thinking about the opposite possibility: what if Adam returned as a sinner?

He was already in Heaven, but by the end of Season 1, his actions are about as far from “heavenly” as you can get. Heaven may have treated the Exterminations as duty, but Adam clearly enjoyed the violence, mocked redemption, killed Sir Pentious, and only seemed to double down when challenged.

If a sinner can rise because their final act proves they changed, could an angel fall because their final actions prove they were never as righteous as Heaven thought?

Adam coming back as a sinner would be funny for obvious reasons, but also thematically fitting. It would force him into the exact system he looked down on, make him deal with the people he judged, and give the show a messy chance to ask whether someone like him can change once he has lost the privilege he hid behind.

Honestly, sinner Adam feels like one of the most interesting ways to bring him back.

Every time someone pulls out the “haha Adam got stabbed by Niffty” line like they just invented comedy, an angel loses patience.

Yes. She stabbed me.

After I fought Alastor, Charlie, Lucifer, half the hotel, and an entire battlefield’s worth of bullshit.

That is not an argument. That is you pointing at the last five seconds of a fight and acting like you wrote a dissertation.

Congratulations, dipshit. You watched the episode. So did everyone else.

Now find a second joke. The first one is decomposing.

Like, The vees had season 2, especially Vox, he appeared in 7 out of 8 episodes, had constant presence trough the season, had the most season, and had as much focus if not more than the main characters.

Not only that, but he survived the events of season 2 and it was confirmed he will stay a major character until the end of the show, add to it that each vee will have a focus season, Valentino in season 3 and Velvette in season 4, she also hinted at a vee spin-off (great btw).

While Lute barely did anything in season 2, after "gravity" sets her up as a villain trough the season, she completely disappeared and remained in the background, only having a short fight with Vaggie before being called off by Abel, while Viv said she is a "sleeper villain", that said, she is still alive and there is still potential.

But Adam really is the most wasted potential, like, he appeared in three episodes out of eight in season 1, the season he is supposed to be the main villain of, gets no depths, instead being portrayed as a one dimensional asshole, and then died at the end of the season, with her and Alex Brightman saying he won't come back, and they barely manage to bring him back in season 2 as a hallucination and in a short flashback, even then he had very little screentime, and it would most likely be the same situation next seasons in flashbacks and as Lute's hallucination.

Just wanted to point out, like, I really love the vees, and I would definitely like a spin-off, as well as being really excited for their roles in the next seasons, but Adam is really a wasted potential.

DISCLAIMER: Throwaway account.

I am a member of r/adamcult and I am still not okay. Adam's death wrecked me in a way I was not prepared for. Say what you want about him - yeah he was loud, abrasive, HUGE inflated ego - but that's EXACTLY why he was compelling. He was a wild, chaotic, deeply flawed character and I loved every second of him on screen. He had presence. He had the best songs. He deserved better and I am still in my grief era, he was the D*ck master god-damn it!

Now. With season 2 (or whatever comes next) looming, I have fears. Genuine, soul-deep fears about where this show is going with his legacy. And I need to get them out before I combust.

And yes I sounds like a glazer but hear me out.

1. Eve.

If Eve is introduced in the show in future and is referenced or shows up and her dynamic with Adam is written as "tolerant wife putting up with a shitty husband" I am going to lose my entire mind. Adam is not a one-note villain. 1D character or not. He is not just a bad husband trope waiting to be unpacked. If the show reduces their relationship to that, it would be a massive disservice to both characters. Give me complexity. Give me something REAL. Do not hand me a "actually he was just the worst and she suffered" narrative and expect me to take it lying down. I will not.

2. The apple.

In regards to how the demise of humanity was explained in the beginning of the story, I just want to say, if they wish to elaborate on it further in the future, If the explanation of how Eve received the apple from Lucifer is lazy or glossed over, for example lucifer being like hey how about you try this apple of knowledge! I'm losing it. (Through tbh I could see some argument for the show realistically doing this) This is FOUNDATIONAL lore. Adam's entire existence, his rage, his role in heaven - it all traces back to this moment. It deserves weight. It deserves nuance. If it gets a throwaway line or a comedic bit that undermines the gravity of what that event meant for Adam specifically, I will be inconsolable.

3. Deadbeat dad retcon.

Like I said if eve shows up in the future and we get a glimpse of Adam life on earth, If the show tries to explain Adam's character by making him a deadbeat dad who contributed nothing while everyone else carried the weight, I am triggered. He is already dead. Let the man have SOMETHING. You can acknowledge his flaws without making him a hollow cautionary tale. There is a difference between a flawed character and a character who existed just to be the punchline of everyone else's story.

I don't hate Vivziepop. I think she's incredibly talented and I trust a lot of what she's built. But I would genuinely ragequit this show if Adam's legacy gets flattened into something small and mean-spirited.

He deserved chaos. He deserved drama. He deserved to be remembered as the unhinged, complicated, magnificent disaster he was.

RIP to the first man. He was everything.

Let me know what you all guys think in the comments.

Heard it was Mermay, so naturally I had to show up and make the sea hotter, holier, and significantly more annoying.

You’re welcome, fish people.

Artist source escaped the net. Embarrassing for them, honestly. If anyone knows who made these, drop the link.

It's about $25

Like, I would've been fine if they brought him as some kind of ghost that only lute could see due to wearing his halo as a bracelet, but instead, he is Just a hallucination, we already knew he is not real and merely fragment of her imagination, not the real Adam.

Praise be to Heaven King.

Took Abel out for ice cream and taught him one of life’s most important lessons:

When your dad is the first man, the fucking man, and the reason humanity even exists, he gets a bite.

That’s not stealing. That’s divine inheritance.
