Thirteen got referred to by they/them pronouns again👀 (for the first time since S2?)
If the new characters did get brought into a paw and claws event (please devs) what animal do you think they would be?
I actually made this post here about what animals fit them in the same vein of Lucifer's being a peacock and Mammon's a crow etc.
But it's a little more difficult to match animals for the paws event for them because there those animals are a bit more random? Like yes okay there are some similarities between the animals and the characters but at the same time who would guess a giraffe for Levi?????
But here's my best guess:
The Rosy Maple Moth
• Pink = pink hair
• Yellow = yellow nail polish
• Moths are a symbol of death in some places
• As caterpillars they can deliver a venomous sting = her traps
• Keeping up the theme of pairing her with adorable creepy-crawlies
Thoroughbred Horse Breed
• The man likes horse so I figured I might as well give him a win
• One of the most expensive horse breeds = Mephisto being one of the richest demons
• Big and strong
• Good with kids
• Stubborn streak
• With a name like "thoroughbred" I can't stop thinking about Mephisto's thing against anyone who wasn't purely a demon.......
This ended with me going down a blackhole reading about different horse breeds....
Secretary Bird
• Looks at Raphael's white clothes and black sleeves....Looks at this bird.... hmmmmm
• Beautiful but a bird of prey = angel who is more than willing to kill people
• "occasionally prey on larger mammals such as hedgehogs, mongooses, small felids such as cheetah cubs, striped polecats, young gazelles, and both young and full-grown hares." "venomous species such as adders and cobras are regularly among the types of snakes preyed upon" = is dangerous to demons
• "A bird will chase after prey with the wings spread and kill by striking with swift blows of the feet." "secretarybird relies on superior visual targeting to determine the precise location of the prey's head" = chasing down others and attacking using spears + him the the celestial realm's hitman
• "The Maasai people have used parts of the bird in traditional medicine" = Raphael being "the Angelic Prince of Healing" in religion
• Raphael's just more or less Michael's secretary in om!
I actually want to swap what I chose for Raphael's familiar animal with his paws event animal because this one fits way better as a familiar.
Bonus Round:
Bottlenose Dolphin
• Adorable
• Friendly
• Playful
• Energetic
• Intelligent
• Occasionally protects humans
• Can and will fuck you up if they feel like it in spite of the great reputation they have garnered
So Thirteen says her sister is a more stereotypical reaper....
goth? goth right? she's goth? that's what you're telling me right? 👀
also think it's funny that Thirteen has the name associated with death but is all pink/blue/purple and giggly and colourful nails/eyes/eyeshadow and basically things you'd associate with the word "candy"
Meanwhile Candy's a more stereotypical reaper and so presumably everything you'd associate with the word "thirteen"
Me: *sees the new OM event announcement* Oh, this'll be fun! I was hoping they'd release another Queen Rose-esque event. Maybe she'll get a sprite this time. And Mammon's getting the spotlight too! It's about- *sees Thirteen on the UR card* *inhuman screeching commences* I'm totally normal about her, I swear.
No no I get it no one here's normal for thirteen
Thirteen being nice and liking MC from the get go because they don't have the history of MC breaking into her home, dismantling her traps & helping Solomon of all people steal from her
Vs
Mephisto being nice because at the point of the birthday calls they all still think MC is a demon
Vs when he knows they're human in their present timeline
What an asshole (said with fondness) can't wait to watch his ass get dragged kicking and screaming through character development
1. Hard Lesson 14-13
2. Normal 27-3
There's a split second after this that's impossible to get a screenshot of, when Simeon calls MC and Solomon smiles and tells MC their director is calling and then his smile falls and his text box vanishes and he's on screen a second too long and he gets this considering look
3. Lessons 35 to 36
MC very literally beats Death.
The Reaper's punishment for breaking their rules was fatal and even the brothers wouldn't have been able to override them
MC is however able to unconsciously turn those punishments into harmless easily reversible transformation curses
4. Normal Lesson 52-A
5. Normal Lesson 52-5
6. Normal Lesson 65-6
7. In Nightbringer, none of the demons or angels are able to recognise MC as a human despite them doing nothing to disguise themself. Diavolo himself takes a long time to figure it out and still doesn't seem 100% sure when he does
8. Nightbringer Lesson 8-18
The second time MC's magic/power/aura has been associated with angels
9. Nightbringer Lesson 10-16
10. In S1 they say MC has an exceptionally bright soul for a human despite the fact that MC isn't actually some pure innocent person (them being a shithead in og om!) (them being a shithead in Nightbringer). When on og om's homescreen Mammon says that it's hard to look at Simeon & Luke because as angels they're very bright
So what's my theory?
Lilith was never fully human. She may have had a body of a human but she still had the soul and ,buried deep inside, the magic of an Angel (you could even argue that she had the magic of an Angel-Demon hybrid because she died after she Fell so she was no longer fully an Angel but before she got to transform into a Demon)
OM! may pick and choose what parts of irl myth they use for their characters BUT all their characters that are based of an irl mythological/religious figure has at least one characteristic connecting them to their namesake. Lilith in some of the most common irl stories is the mother of demons/monsters

Feel like Solomon & Thirteen being roommates explains a lot
the context honestly makes their relationship so much funnier
When you try calling the unknown person (Nightbringer?), nobody answers the phone and you get some sort of automatic voicemail. But when you look at the dialogue history on the side of the screen, it says that the person speaking in the voicemail is Thirteen, I just thought that was weird.
Why does it say that it's thirteen's voice in the voicemail when we try to call Nightbringer's phone, are these two people connected somehow?
Could just be a bug or something that just happens; like the random background profile pictures that pop up for Nightbringer when you call them
BUT
Consider that Thirteen voiced automated messages as a side gig
Pictured: Me, actively fighting the urge to not kick Mammon to the curb (colourized):
i am SO normal about the fact that we get so much good thirteen content in the latest event (lying)
Thirteen was the mvp it was amazing!
She cared so much and was just always there!? She got such a focus in this event despite somehow not really being there?
And I wonder if this is Solmare's way of easing her in to being a love interest?
I mean remember how much backlash there was when she was first introduced? The focus on Thirteen in this event over Mephisto & Raphael feels like them crouching on the ground, one arm stretched out, gently trying to show people 'hey this is good, see it's all safe, you can put down the pitchforks, she's only interested in mc, you can kiss her if you want or choose a different option just like it is for the other LIs, shhh it's okay'
....so yes i have a type
I know the sugar baby is your favorite, but I'm curious to know who's the runner up out of the love interest.
So yeah I definitely never saw any of the other characters as dateable because I'm a crazy person who plays OM! like I'm reading a story and narratively Mammon makes the most sense. I play OM! like I have no outside influence on MC's actions & I try to keep my decisions of MC's actions as close to the characteristics of general/canon MC and general/canon MC does have a rather apparent bias towards Mammon (that actually gets called out by the brothers within the game). I'd never let my own irl feelings/biases affect the story haha :)
Ooooo okay~ i appreciate that solomon was defending MC even though thirteen was actually saying it about him LMFAOOO
It was very sweet of him and I do love how oblivious he seems to be concerning Thirteen's hatred of him
MC:
She could not have been more clearly talking 'bout you💀
I fucking screaming when Lucifer was be like yeah, bitch, put them in their place, that's my MC, I'm so proud
/i bet he wished that MC do this to him too, sorry not sorry
Okay but like MC's usually such a chill person but when they lose their temper they seriously lose their temper and it's so fucking hot. They managed to scare Thirteen into stuttering and Thirteen deals with death on a daily basis🥵
