A casual day

Wives

I had to redraw this for Chaggie LMAO

Start?

(Part 1)

It is not lost on me that Charlie and Vaggie were initially not doing great against Adam and Lute...and then proved Carmilla was so fucking right.

Vaggie is absolutely FUCKED here. She's been in this position before, with Lute looming over her spitting vitriolic judgment, Vaggie's blood on the ground. Back then, she couldn't stop Lute from taking away her wings, her eye, her home, and her purpose. But now? She has more than that; she has love, because she has Charlie.

When Lute threatens Charlie, everything changes. Vaggie fucks her up immediately...and shows "mercy" knowing that being forced to live with part of herself gone (her arm was CRUSHED, no way was she getting it back), the shame of defeat, and the knowledge that someone she's been looking down on so completely is responsible for it all is a fate MUCH worse than death for Lute.

And Charlie? Charlie's insanely powerful but has no clue how to use her power to its full potential because she's never had a reason or desire to fight until now. Even when she's being strangled, when she's pissed-off and vengeful, she can't really tap into that power. But then Adam comes at her dad and is about to catch him off-guard.

He's about to hurt—possibly kill—her dad, who she's finally building a good relationship with; her dad, who just showed up to protect her despite the risk of politically turning this battle from an act of defiance by a willful princess to an act of full-on rebellion by the King of Hell himself. She reacts on instinct to protect her father and stops a hit that destroyed Alastor's shield. And she does it effortlessly.

Carmilla was right. For these ladies, at least, the need to protect someone they love, no matter what kind of love it is, is exactly what rallies them to come at enemies who were just kicking their asses and absolutely dominate.

"but there's so much that I wished I could say..."

My new (old) obsession, hello

Love these two so much you guys

Love that Charlie was so protective of Vaggie during the whole battle against the angels. She was literally following her around the whole time. She was so hyper aware of her, being Vaggie's shield, especially since Carmilla pointed out that angels like Vaggie have a bad habit of forgetting to defend themselves. One of the criticisms against Chaggie is that Vaggie dedicates too much of herself to Charlie, but the thing is she's only like that in the first place because Charlie loves her just as much. Vaggie needs to work on looking out for herself ofc(they're already dating in the show. They need something to develop from duh) but it really makes so much sense for Vaggie to be as devoted as she is when it's a woman like Charlie she's in love with.

YOU HONOR THEY ARE SOFT!!!!

Say what you want about the Hellaverse, but in an era where Disney is deathly allergic to romance, I appreciate how Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss unapologetically embrace musical numbers that add layers to these types of relationships (be it established or slow-burn).

Just wanted to drop these musical, hellish shower thoughts before Full Moon drops and tears our hearts to shreds...

Alas! I've finally finished it. After many sleepless nights (I'm exaggerating lol?)

Honestly, it paid off cuz I definitely love the outcome!...

Stay tuned folks, its just a part of a bigger plan. More animation to come!

this is literally what happened after Charlie found Vaggie, i was there trust me ✧ദ്ദി( ˶^ᗜ^˶ )

"If I can't help you, what's the point of me?"

Does she think she's not worth even existing if she's not of use? With all military knowledge, her talk of protecting Charlie, her not so subtle Exorcist background I'm starting to think she partially sees helping Charlie as her personal atonement

Also the implication that she can't even see how much she's doing for Charlie despite Charlie telling her, there are no results for Vaggie to see so in her mind she's not worthy of Charlie's love and praise

Heaven must have really fucked up her sense of self-worth

angel dust: I'm so happy, I could kiss you! husk: Um...Neat. *later* husk, lying face down on his bed: I said "Neat," charlie. Who the fuck says neat these days? It's not neat to say neat but I said it anyways because I'm fucking stupid. charlie, reading a book: Don't beat yourself up too much, husk. Everyone gets nervous sometimes. Remember what I did when vaggie confessed her love for me? husk: Didn't you thank her? charlie: *closes the book and looks at the ceiling* I fucking thanked her.

I didn't even notice this holy shit that is fucking hilarious

on a somewhat more serious note I see a lot of people complaining about Vaggie's unhealthy perspective of her relationship with Charlie and how her whole existence is devoted to supporting her partner but I think the flashback to her losing her wings helps explain it

like of course it's unhealthy, but she has room to grow and that's what storytelling is all about, and it makes sense that she is so single-mindedly devoted to Charlie because she lost absolutely everything and Charlie was the first and only new thing to enter her life since

she doesn't have other interests or reasons for living because she lost all of that when she was expelled from heaven, but I look forward to seeing her develop as a person and the evolution of Chaggie to a much healthier place

relationships in media don't have to be perfect, it's realistic that many of these relationships have unhealthy aspects but that's what makes us root for them is that they can improve
