TW: Mentions of abuse and violence

Mammon looked down at his hands when he received the letter from Barbatos. He hadn't seen Lucifer the whole of last night; when he came back from sneaking out, it wasn't Lucifer who was there, but Satan and Leviathan getting annoyed at him, apparently for 'not making dinner when it was his turn' when it was Lucifer's turn. Sure, he was pissed that he Lucifer didn't come to RAD, but he wasn't bothered enough to care. "Are you not even going to try study for our literature test? ", Satan had asked him. "𝘚𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘺, 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘱𝘢𝘺𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵", Mammon said, aware that it would annoy Satan. " That isn't even proper old English literature, and 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻'𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲, 𝘄𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲." Satan said with a look of rage. "Hey, at least I come out of my room to go to school!", Mammon argued. " At least I don't go out to skip school.", Leviathan responded. They had bickered the whole way home. When they got home Mammon finally unfolded the letter. Lucifer wasn't home, still.

Under "Yours Sincerely", Lucifer had written his signature. Mammon found himself questioning why Lucifer would put a signature at the end of a letter to his brothers. And why there were so many changes in his writing. "Why'd Lucifer write his 'r' like that? Doesn't he usually loop it when he writes in cursive?", Mammon said, aloud. " You pay attention to that? ", Belphie asked. "Ofc", Leviathan spoke, saying those three letters. " Roflmao, he's probably memorised it when he looks through Lucifer's stuff for money." "Do ya' never shut up!" Mammon ignored it. He was still annoyed that Lucifer wouldn't be home for the next few weeks.

Mammon couldn't deny his jealously,
ever since Lucifer took an oath of loyalty towards Diavolo. Mammon envied Diavolo.

He didn't know whether he should keep the letter to himself or show his brothers.
"It's so annoying. I barely see him other than at RAD and meals.", Mammon was ranting to Leviathan, in the exchange that Mammon would help him with this one game he was good at. "Isn't that what always happens?", Levi asked. "No way- Lucifer used to practically spy on us when it wasn't school. Now when he comes home he's always tired and that crap!" You could see the mad expression on his face. Mammon paused the game. "Do you wanna see the letter Lucifer gave us?". "Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" Leviathan read through the contents of that letter. "Oh. Is that why you're pissed?" "Yeah". Leviathan took a deep breath. "Tbh, yeah. I miss Lucifer too." Mammon sighed. "We barely talk anymore; like less than we did when I locked myself up in my room for that time." "You saw Lord Diavolo at RAD today right, Levi? Should I ask about Lucifer?" Levi exhaled. "Whatever. Don't expect anything though."
