"I don't know but I feel like I've broken a promise I had made so long ago..."
So I found out about this amazing statue of Satan cradling Sirene in his arms https://myfigurecollection.net/item/214138 and I thought it was so beautiful and was intrigued by the concept of what kind of relationship Satan might've had with Sirene and then I remember in the Amon manga that Satan was friendly with Sirene's mother https://v5.mkklcdnv6tempv3.com/img/tab_5/00/80/65/cn959422/chapter_2_volume_2/111-o.jpg https://v5.mkklcdnv6tempv3.com/img/tab_5/00/80/65/cn959422/chapter_2_volume_2/158-o.jpg and I'd like to headcanon that Satan felt a lot of pain and regret whenever he saw Sirene and was reminded of her mother each time and maybe when he was Ryo a part of him felt strangely guilty about shooting her to free Akira. And in this what if picture Ryo had managed to wake up sooner to encounter Sirene bleeding and dying from Akira's attacks and feels the strong urge to cradle the mighty warrior demoness in his arms to bring her some peace and comfort for her final moments(I also headcanon that both demons and humans feel more calmed in Satan's presence when he wishes them to be) but then I imagine Kaim arrives and Sirene snaps out of the wistful trance she was in with this strangely familiar human who had not too long ago shot her and joins with Kaim to get her revenge on Akira for Amon. Ryo would never understand why he feels so much sadness for this demon until he remembers his true identity and the regret and guilt hit him harder than he had before, he had promised himself that Sirene wouldn't be the last of the Sirene and yet he had helped make that happen...
