Summary
This is a comprehensive guide to the series 'Sequelae of the fall and various other curses' which was posted from August 2025 to January 2026 in a very haphazard order thanks to an episode of hypomania.
In this AU, Lucifer has mysteriously developed the celestial curse of a human malady at some unknown time before a suicide attempt in February 2018. Linda, in her capacity as a psychiatrist, and Michael, who has been secretly working as a surgeon in Los Angeles for two years after being abruptly dismissed from his Heavenly duties by God in December 2015, work to settle him and make sense of how an archangel could have seemingly suddenly been saddled with this curse while multiple stressors bloom around them, threatening Lucifer's stability and what's left of Michael's blind faith in their Father.
The guide provides background leading up to the first story, 'Only the lonely are free,' then includes the correct order to read the series with links included through to the last work, 'Eternity was made for them.' After supplying the proper order, there are some other notes about the series.

Summary
Six months after she was poisoned and three months after starting an 'elevated platonic relationship' with Lucifer, Chloe decides she'd like to go one step further to a full romantic relationship with him. Lucifer refuses until she recognizes that he is the Devil, but when he subsequently proves it to a disbelieving Chloe, it goes very poorly. Once she realizes how terrible her behavior toward him was, she has to work her hardest to bring Lucifer back to her emotionally and geographically.
(The 'Sequelae of the fall' version of how Chloe learned the truth, but it can be read outside of the series without any issue.)

Summary
When Lucifer tricked Amenadiel into allowing him to stay in Los Angeles in 2011, it caused upheaval in Heaven. Michael, already secretly living on the East Coast for more than a decade, was recalled to Heaven to sit at their Father's right hand as they worked out the governance of Hell and what to do with Lucifer. Before anything was settled, however, their Father released him back to Earth in December 2015. Drawn to Los Angeles after watching it in Lucifer's life for almost five years, he moved there.
It's February 2018, and Michael hasn't made a single attempt to track down Lucifer or get any update on his life, content to just exist peacefully and solitarily as he did in Boston and Baltimore. Following an erroneous page at work, however, Dr Demiurgos finds that his twin’s life has changed exponentially in the last two years, the Devil can love and be loved unconditionally, and their Father may not be as benevolent as he'd always assumed.
(Work contains both story and illustrations. Art starts at chapter 9.)

Summary
Four weeks have passed, and it appears that Linda’s initial prescription for Lucifer’s inexplicable human malady has been successful. Unfortunately, as he hits the target dose, he develops an incredibly rare and deadly reaction to the drug, one that affects only 0.08% to 0.3% of patients, necessitating distancing from Chloe and that Michael take over Lucifer’s care as he remains unmedicated and his mood plummets. With Lucifer refusing to see anyone but his twin, Michael has to use his medical knowledge, connections, and newly redeveloped relationship with his brother to put Lucifer back together.
