3. They will never state so, but it is quite obviously Esau
Even if not so literally, the story is so closely aligned to the Biblical story of Jacob and Esau that it sort of makes me mad that they took such a predictable route.

4. Interesting that they are twins
But don't look anything alike (yes, I know twins don't have to) or anything like their real mother. Who's their father?

I think Lucifer would be a good name for him.
