Well, Yenatru hasn’t, at least not specifically–but he has been lonely, and when Lucifer just so happens to be the random person he befriends in a library, he isn’t complaining.
Ever since his friend Tamar ran off into the desert to see God’s true form and become one of the Holy (and you can read the prelude to her decision for free here), he and his other friend, Elīya, have been drifting apart. It turns out that Tamar had been the glue holding the friend group together.
And Elīya is pissed that she left without telling anyone.
And it just might be that Yenatru’s new fallen angel friend holds the key to getting Tamar over here right now this instant so that Eliīya can give her a good talking to. But Lucifer may ask something of Elīya in return: for her to actually get to know herself better.
Featuring: Lucifer being a dork and hitting her head on the ceiling when lounging on a bookcase, a boy who’s too gay to function, ETHICS!!!!, magic and motorcycles both, friendship, a magic system based on deep understanding of oneself, a demon who doodles geometric figures everywhere, and more!
And for those of you who like diversity in your books, this one has:
two autistic leads, one of whom also has anxiety
aforementioned too-gay-to-function lead (that’s Yenatru)
an aromantic and occasionally sexually attracted to girls lead (Elīya)
genderfluid and PTSD Lucifer
agender and autistic God
a bunch of nonwhite characters, i.e. basically everyone except for Elīya
As we were going along the people stared; not at Queequeg so much—for they were used to seeing cannibals like him in their streets,—but at seeing him and me upon such confidential terms. But we heeded them not,
and also:
we sallied out to board the Pequod, sauntering along, and picking our teeth with halibut bones.
Gollum’s 500 year old tattered rags: has pockets where he keeps "fishbones, goblins’ teeth, wet shells, a bit of bat-wing, a
sharp stone to sharpen his fangs on, and other nasty things.”
Probably something a little like this. Arien, considering she wasn’t swayed over by Melkor would probably be weary around Sauron. Even if he was fair and gift giving he still had the will to control.
Though I can see the appeal, they are both very hot and fiery. 😀
