Today marked however many excruciating years since Lucifers fall, the day that changed his life forever, a day he dreaded thinking about every year it comes around.

The day he fell.

After moving into the Hazbin Hotel, hime has been much more energetic and happy for once in his life, ("take that depression") but it didn't change the fact that every year this day came around, he holed himself up, not wanting to even see the world he himself was bound to. A place that would exist if it wasn't for his mistakes.

Not many knew, mainly you and Charlie, but that's all that needed to know. Especially you

You knew he would hole himself up, you knew his emotions would be spiked, that you'd only get yelled at for small things and tears staining your shirt during every other moment. But it was a time he needed you the most. Even if it's just the company

You had somehow fought your way, not only into his room, but into his bed while he curled against your chest, surrounded by knocked over piles of rubber ducks he's crafted and clothes he couldn't bring himself to put away yet. So much for finally overcoming his depressed state

This is pathetic...I'm supposed to be king...

He mumbled after a long bit of comfortable silence
