Ah, Luci. I have an endless love/hate relationship with him (this fic's version, at least). He's such a bastard on one hand, torturing and raping and destroying to get what he wants. But it's not really just for his own gain - it's for all the angels, or at least the ones who agree with him (always a loophole, eh?). He does some unforgivable things, true, but...I can kinda see where he's coming from.
Not that I'm saying it's ever excusable to rape or torture a person, but well, he has his reasons. It's a greater good/lesser evil situation more than anything, I think.
...and then my brain just made a weird parallel with Luci and Ozymandias from Watchmen. Both so willing to take all that death and destruction on their ( ... )

Of course it's not.
It's just that Luci isn't really a person, he is probably as far from a person as anyone can be. His whole scale of values is so abysmally different to ours that in his mind he finds his actions are justified and they are in no way something to abhor. We simply should not be able compare our morals to his, so when we do judge him following our human moral code he ends up a monster.
And yay! for future fic :D Getting a new dose from you is always a good thing :)
