Kyle said Lucifer is reasonable. And a reasonable person does not become lord of hell by being not trustworthy. Really, the only way to rise to such a point is through people skills. If anything, Lucifer rose to his rank because he has allies, and knows to keep them happy. Being trustworthy is a central part of that. Really, it's an essential leadership skill - making alliances. There is no being that could reasonably rule over hell through sheer force alone. The trick is not to be able to do everything, but knowing who can, and how to make them do it. If you make them do it by force, all you have done is make sure they never want to work for you again and want to fuck you up when they have the chance. Instead, reasonable approach. Lucifers entire empire is supported on favours for favours for favours. No demon would ever support Lucifers rule if it was not beneficial to them.


Of course, Seham was too paranoid to even listen to what Lucifer wanted to propose, and now has to deal with the consequences of his actions. And he's mighty optimistic to think he can conquer an entire world with just a couple of demons, even if that world is poorly developed. Note that Wills homeworld is also Stellas homeworld. There is an entire race of dragons who will not have any of his shit. If he really wants to conquer this world, he will need hundreds if not thousands of years, and must do so all the while demonic assassins want his head on a plate. He was barely able to even defend what he already had, that bitch is not conquering anything.


So yeah, for all intents and purposes, Seham and the plot around him is over. It requires no further intervention whatsoever. I guess the only thing that keeps stuff going is that people want to have a word with Nuriel, so oh well, let them have it I guess.

Said home world is also populated with supers. A LOT of supers. Who probably don't want their world conquered, either because of freedom or because they want to conquer it themselves.

And if Seham ever returns to Hell, and Andras finds out what he did, he'll have to deal with about five or six greater demons, with their legions of demons, descending upon him, in addition to Lucifer and his vassals.

well as I said, Seham fucked up. Sometimes getting what you want does not mean you did not fuck up.

Kyle is unable to help his friend so of course he's a jerk for being greatly upset by it.
I'm not even sure what the incident in question is so I'm going to ignore this for now.

Quote
And when has Kyle intentionally been a bad friend?
I'm pretty sure that this is impossible by definition.
He has, however, been an unintentionally bad friend whenever he's abandoned the group. Especially after said group included his child(ren).

Quote
No one talked about the video and Kyle could care less about Will anyways.
...I wasn't talking specifically about Kyle.

Quote
And why would Angel need a reason to take off her bracelet?
...Because no one ever does, except in times of distress.

Quote
Why does any of the cast need one?
It would be bad for her mental health.
...What are these referring to?

Quote
Fuck you GWG I'm trying to play him the way I think he should be played.
Fair enough, but if you play him as a selfish jerk people are going to see him as a selfish jerk...

Kyle said Lucifer is reasonable. And a reasonable person does not become lord of hell by being not trustworthy.
One does not become Lord of the Backstabbers without backstabbing. One who tries to do so will be backstabbed.

Quote
There is no being that could reasonably rule over hell through sheer force alone.
And there is none.
Canonically, there is no singular Lord of Hell. Lucifer may be the most powerful demon in Hell, but there are demons who do not obey his rule.

Quote
No demon would ever support Lucifers rule if it was not beneficial to them.
1. What the hell (pun intended) makes you think that all demons support Lucifer? There are always dissidents, and I would have thought it was clear that Seham was not one of the Lucifer-lovers.
2. It's entirely possible to rule a large group of people who mostly do not support you, if they either support you more than anarchy or (more likely) are too disorganized and inter-hateful to band together, and any small rebellions are crushed by the might of the rest of the group.

Quote

Slow down. What makes you think that they went to Will's world?

Quote

Demon armies are a lot bigger, and have more power per troop, than most human armies.

Said home world is also populated with supers. A LOT of supers. Who probably don't want their world conquered, either because of freedom or because they want to conquer it themselves.
Is everyone forgetting that I had Will clearly say that the world on the other side had little magic and no supernatural organizations?

Actually, Will's from Super Academy. I.e Kj's world.

Lets hear from him whether or not it would be possible for Seham to realistically take over.

People do when they want privacy, Alice removed it once just because the arguing over the channel was getting so bad.

Richard removed his and Camille's because the group was being stupid and made Camille cry.

It would take Chuthullu and the whole of the justice league to take over the entire world... and that's not counting other planets that may want the planet free and any gods that wanted it/thought it looked nice...

Also, is GWG really arguing amwhy Kyle is a bad father for leaving after the verbal abuse he got without even knowing why he was yelled at?

Probably one to one. Two to one if the planet lacks the 'destroy the world/universe/galaxy' type of villain.

That's well and good but when you suddenly get that teenaged daughter before you even had a daughter of any other age.

Kyle is really just too young to deal with all of the stuff he's had to go through
