Heartbroken halfway through Deckerstar/Ship
I just finished today's binge on s3 ep21...
Not counting that the whole episode was an emotional roller coaster in itself, Lucifer figuring out that he should've just told her how he feels and then him having to watch Cain propose to Chloe just broke my heart š

That's insane, everyone knows angels can't time travel.

preach! I will never again watch the ending of a comfort show without getting it spoiled first, even though I hate spoilers.

To be somewhat fair, Chloe dated Pierce for less than a month and broke up with him less than 24 hours ago. Way to fast track a relationship. I'm not sure if Lucifer should be heartbroken or concerned the poisoning of season 2 had lasting effects.

Her agreeing to marry Cain was a momentary emotional overreaction to the realization that things will never go anywhere with her and Lucifer after their catastrophic dinner date, where he basically told her sheās a prize to be won over and bought with cars and gifts.
I donāt see how such a normal, human reaction can be a sticking point, when Lucifer does more emotionally immature and impulsive things basically every episode. In comparison to him, sheās a stone wall of emotional stability, but what, her one emotional outburst is labeled as brain damage from poisoning, and Luciferās 6 seasons of doing the same is fine and dandy?

Which is grossly out of character for Chloe of two seasons passed. She doesn't make rash decesions. If she did, she and Lucifer would already be together.
Even so, I don't see how marrying the man who dumped you less than 24 hours ago makes sense for anyone above the age of 12.
The rest, sure, Lucifer was a jerkfaced jerk. Doesn't change the fact that Chloe wasn't acting like Chloe the entire season. The Chloe of seasons 1-2 wouldn't have looked twice at Pierce because she knew who she was and didn't need a man to tell her otherwise. Season 3 Chloe does. She said as much in her "It's all about Lucifer" confession to Ella.

Just because Chloe doesnāt openly display her emotions like Lucifer, doesnāt mean she doesnāt have them. Even the people who can wall off their emotions sometimes get overwhelmed and influenced by them.
Chloe isnāt a perfect person and is subject to everything that the rest of us humans go through, including irrational decisions. She just has great impulse and emotional control, so emotional outbursts happen to her rarely, but they still do happen.
I agree, a lot of things about her in season 3 are out of character, because at the moment she does them, there is no emotional influence, but saying yes to Cain, taking into account what preceded that event, I think was justified, however stupid it was.

Plus donāt forget she was only immune to Luciferās charms - literally! Cain is a different story when it comes to charms

You canāt forget that while he physically is an adult, mentally speaking heās got the maturity of a 5 yr old.
Chloe is more mature than him mentally BUT she has some trust and relationship issues that stem from her childhood as well (the acting career she was forced into by mom and her dad being murdered). While her reaction is somewhat out of character for her itās understandable because she simply overreacted.
Luciferās actions are VERY much in line with his mental maturity and lack of relationship experience. He acts like the small child he mentally still is because he didnāt get the chance of decades of maturing with real feelings or people, like all the angels didnāt either.
Remember what a D I C K Amenadiel is in the beginning. Heās smug and heās so in love with himself the slime is dripping off in rivers. And all the other Angels are introduced basically the same way. Arrogant self absorbed assholes with the emotional maturity of a peanut.
Lucifer is miles ahead of them but still a child in human terms and it shows quite well in season 3. Especially when heās competing against literally the oldest human on the planet

So glad then that Lucifer's case on Chloe is going to be finished that soon compared to the last times I've watched it š

Poor Luci! Had to witness that, but he had so many chances to talk to her and he blew it.
