dreaming of you… when even his slumbering moments are filled with the thought of you
never did he thinks a human who was only supposed to stay for a year would worm their way into his heart and minds so much so that even when he's asleep, all he can think of is you. what is he dreaming about?
Lucifer
a perfect world where the two of you can live happily ever after, in the home you've told him you love. neither of you have responsibilities, it's just the both of you, together and happy.
Mammon
you might think it would be some grand casino, but actually no. he often finds himself dreaming about your late night runs to the convivence store together and picking up more snacks that the two of you can carry. afterwards, you go back to one of your rooms and eat while giggling together. what he wouldn't give to have that happen every night
Levi
honestly, he can't think of anything better of a day at a convention where everyone thinks he's cool and has a great cosplay. you're matching with him and the two of you get to do everything you want, and everything goes your way. At the end of the day, he's able to see that smile he loves so much from you
Satan
a cat cafe complete with all of his favorite books and lots of cute cats! but of course, you're there and the two of you are able to sit in a pile of soft blankets with cats. even if you're allergic, you're able to befriend them just fine in this world :)
Asmo
while a closet full of every accessory and clothing item he could ever imagine sounds nice, he actually dreams about just spending time relaxing in bed with you. a movie or something like that might be playing in the background but the only thing he can focus on is you
Beel
honestly, to him, a simple picnic with you sounds perfect. ideally by a lake and lots of trees so once you're done eating, you can sit together under a tree while cuddling <3
Belphie
somewhere that's the ideal napping spot with no distractions that the both of you can enjoy. the sky is always filled with your favorite constellations and the two do you can just lay there forever with no worries of responsibilities

Reality Show (Obey Me!)
━━━━━━━━━━ ✦ ━━━━━━━━━━
Diavolo convinces Lucifer to have him & his brothers do a new demon reality show that revolves around their everyday lives.
»Characters: Demon Bros // ->[Click here for Part 2: Dateables]
»Tags: LUCIFER CAUGHT IN 4K, Shitpost/Humor, Mentions of reader/MC, Husbando Beel Supremacy, Bulleted Style
»Notes: CM = Crew Member ;; Sorry I was gonna upload this sooner but wanted to draw art for it. xD
Tumblr media
Lucifer:
"Okay that's enough, go somewhere else."
CM: "We can't, you agreed to this under contract"
sighs
Mildly regretted his loyalty to Diavolo, otherwise he would've never done this
His camera crew was always on edge with him
The show stressed him more than usual
Perhaps there were a few embarrassing moments he would prefer not to talk about
Like pushing a door that said pull, forgetting the word spoon and calling it a tiny bowl on a stick
[Camera peeks through Lucifer's study, recording a smiling Lucifer texting on his phone]
CM: "Who were you texting Lucifer? Was it ___? There's been rumors..."
"I was checking the weather."
CM: "You take selfies for the weather?"
Tumblr media
Mammon:
"Hey wait stop recordin' this! Not that what we are doin' is illegal!"
His camera crew had a rough time with him
But it made for good television!
He talked shit about Lucifer the most
"Yeah a lotta people dunno this, but Lucifer cries to me all the time! What can I say, I'm a reliable guy!"[Crew zooms in on an unamused Lucifer in the background]
[Cut to Mammon hanging from the ceiling]
"Can someone get me down from here!? HEY! WHERE ARE YOU GUYS GOIN'!?"
A lot of the crew's clips had shaky movement from running due to multiple mammon situations
They got a great swoon-worthy shot of Mammon gazing lovingly at you
CM: "Maybe you should confess?"
"I'm confessin' to nothin'! Talk to my lawyer!"
CM: "That's not what we- Nevermind."
Tumblr media
Levi:
"I already stream online so this isn't any different."
lol
Levi didn't realize they'd be watching his every move
How was he suppose to worship his shrine of Ruri and you in front of them!?
His camera crew couldn't stop cringing around the otaku
it was uncomfortable for everyone
[Camera films secret sweet moment of him awkwardly practicing asking if you want to hang out]
He asked for it to be deleted, it was denied
However his ratings shot up after that clip and the next one:
CM: "Do you have a crush on ___?"
"W-what!? N-no!!! (Incoherent Levi noises and he trips)"
That clip became a viral meme for weeks
I'm talking remixes and everything
In the end his camera crew actually did have a lot of fun with him and they game online together now
Tumblr media
Satan:
"Watch your step. Oh, don't touch that!"
His camera crew had a difficult time with him
He managed to avoid them frequently so he wasn't overly present in the show, much to the annoyance of Lucifer and the others
If they did catch him, all the clips looked the same, all he did was read
They did manage to catch him feeding some stray devildom kitties
[Camera zooms in on him in his room with a collared cat on his lap]
CM: "I thought you couldn't have pets?"
"It's not mine. Clearly, I can't control what comes in my room as of late."
CM:  "It has a collar?"
"Next question."
CM: "What can you tell us about the Anti-Lucifer League?"
"I don't know what you're talking about. Next question."
CM: "Okay... viewers want to know what's up with you and ___?"
[Satan opens a book and gets sucked in]
Tumblr media
Asmo:
"It's like, Devilgram Live, but longer!"
Most unbothered out of everyone
He did get annoyed when they tried to catch him before he could start his morning beauty routine
He was scary, they caught it on camera...it was the only time the crew deleted a clip on a brothers request
Overall his crew had an easy time, it was standard to what they normally do, Asmo himself was fun
He was a natural, of course everyone loved him, who wouldn't?
Was the one to start drama for the sake of tv
Nothing too crazy just messed with Luci's schedule, got Mammon arrested, hid Levi's Ruri body pillow, little things really!
[Camera catches Asmo cuddling next to you]
CM: "You seem very fond of them!"
"I am! Oh maybe we can do like a one year WEDDING special later on!?"
Tumblr media
Beel:
"Just don't get in my way I guess."
He wasn't really on board with the idea but not much he could do
His crew had an average time with him, he was easy and chill to film
They caught him doing a lot of activities like, cooking/baking, sports, gaming, it was surprising to viewers
His work out clips got a lot of views too, he was a busy demon
They filmed him helping around the house, even cleaning your room and leaving you little gift snacks
CM: "Wow, snacks? You must really like ___!"
"Yeah. I love them. I want to give them the world."He confidently admitted, smiling brightly
Had high ratings in the polls, the show gave everyone a new perspective of him who wasn't just a gluttonous beast
Tumblr media
Belphie:
CM: "Is he breathing?"
"Zzz..."
The crew had an easy but boring time with him
There's only so many hours of a sleeping Belphie you can record
The were some soft serene moments with him,Beel and you, gazing at the stars
[Camera catches him sleeping, smiling and mumbling something about you]
CM (poking): "Belphie wanna share what you were dreaming about? We heard you call their name. "
"Only if the network agrees to air it unfiltered. It will be very descriptive."
CM:
CM: "That's a wrap guys."

When It's MC's Turn to Cook THE DEMON BROTHERS x gn!MC | 1.1k words | SFW Rating/Warnings: Mostly fluff and silliness. Some jealous/possessive behaviour if you squint. [ Obey Me! Masterlist ]
Tumblr media
Belphegor
It’s not surprising that he’s the least interested in helping you in the kitchen since it’s exhausting cooking for so many hungry demons every night
He complains when it’s your turn to cook because it means he has to nap alone
He has trouble napping when you’re not with him, so he’ll wander into the kitchen with a yawn and ask if you need a hand (but you both know it’s a hollow offer - he’s just trying to be polite)
Depending on how sleepy he looks, the most you ask of him is to help you set the table 
Instead of returning to the attic for a restless sleep, he’ll simply go to your room instead where he can hear you in the kitchen while he tries to doze off
You let him know that dinner’s ready first by waking him up with a kiss, followed by relentless tickles if he still pretends to be asleep
Beelzebub
Cooking is challenging entertaining when Beel is around, but you need to strategize if you want food to actually make it to the table for everyone else
You have some quick snacks ready by the time he walks into the kitchen to see you - there are some sandwiches, cut up veggies and dip - light fare that won’t ruin his appetite but will keep his hands and mouth occupied
He’s one of the brothers that won’t shy away from making requests for certain meals, especially if there’s something he heard about that he wants to try (only if he thinks you’ll like too - he appreciates its hard work)
He likes going to the shops with you after class to help you pick out ingredients, and he’ll carry all the bags home without breaking a sweat 
Asmodeus
Asmo loves spending time with you in the kitchen, but he’s more like your personal cooking cheerleader than a hands-on helper
He sits on a stool nearby and keeps you company while being out of the way - this also prevents him from getting his clothes or hair dirty if something splatters or spills
He talks about new pictures and gossip he sees on Devilgram, and calls you over to look at his DDD when he comes across something really interesting or scandalous 
He knows you don’t like having your picture taken so he takes candid shots of your dinner-in-progress with your blurred form somewhere in the background 
You can guess when he’s posted something on Devilgram because more of his brothers (particularly Mammon) come and visit you in the kitchen shortly after
Satan
Satan is a fantastic partner in the kitchen when you’re in the mood to try cooking something new or adventurous
He learns about a lot of human world food from the books and TV shows, so sometimes he requests things even you haven’t cooked or eaten before
He likes to help you plan things ahead of time so he gathers a couple different recipe options to see which one you want to use
Once you’ve chosen the recipe, he goes through the ingredients and adjusts the amounts on your shopping list so it'll be enough to feed everyone + Beel + leftovers (if you can hide them from Beel fast enough, anyway)
Satan is skilled with a knife and eager to show off help with the prep work
If you ask him to teach you a particular technique, he stands behind you while he holds your hands in his as he guides you through the motions until he's satisfied you can repeat it safely
He has a short fuse if Mammon his brothers barge into the kitchen and flirt with distract you while you're cooking together
Leviathan
Levi is happy enough to sit in his room and wait until he’s called for dinner, cooking isn’t a task that appeals to him and he’d rather spend his time catching up on new anime releases 
Some days if he feels particularly social, he’ll sit on a chair like Asmo does and play his handheld while you cook
If you’re not sure what to make for dinner that night, usually you’ll ask Levi - he never asks for something that’s complicated or takes too long
More often than not, he suggests ordering takeout instead - the sooner you eat, the sooner you can play games with him
He likes to cuddle with you in his tub while you keep an eye on the delivery tracker app 
Mammon
Mammon isn’t the most skilled at food prep or cooking, but when his brothers aren’t around he’s with you in the kitchen the entire time you’re preparing dinner
After he’s helped chopped some vegetables for you, he brings them over with a faint blush on his cheeks and mumbles that it’s harder than it looks
He’ll flash you cocky smile when you tell him he’s done a wonderful job, and he says that’s why you should just ask him for help whenever you’re cooking instead of his brothers who obviously aren’t as gifted as he is
Sometimes you have to slap his hand away when he tries to stick his finger into a dish to taste it 
When you tell him to use a fork or spoon if he wants to sample something, he surprises you when he holds it to your mouth expectantly so you can have the first taste
It’s hard to resist when he offers you something you know he worked really hard to help you make, after all
You remind him to use a clean utensil for himself, but he pops yours into his mouth as soon as you look away
Later when you ask him how it tastes, he says it’s perfect (but he’s not referring to the food)
Lucifer
RAD business often keeps Lucifer on campus later than everyone else, so some nights you rarely see him before dinner is finished and served at the table
You’ve mentioned in the past how you had special family dinners on Sunday nights growing up, and when your cooking night falls on Sundays in the Devildom, you try to uphold the tradition
Lucifer is usually less busy on Sundays too, so cooking together to create more elaborate meals becomes something of a ritual you both take comfort in
He takes you to the market himself and helps you when you’re unsure of which Devildom ingredients to choose; he’s also more knowledgeable when it comes to choosing and cooking Devildom meats, so that is his responsibility the nights you cook together
It’s not practical to drag the record player into the kitchen, but music streams from your DDD while you both work quietly on prepping and cooking that night’s meal
Lucifer is surprisingly relaxed in the kitchen - the top buttons of his shirt are undone, his sleeves are rolled up, and he has an apron tied around his waist
When he works beside you at the counter or walks past you to retrieve something, you can feel his hand brush against you gently, an affectionate gesture that leaves a pleased smile on both your faces

Little D's headcanons
the Little D's have cubbies or bunk beds
Barbatos feeds the Little D's leftovers sometimes, mainly No. 6
at least twice a food fight has started among the Little D's (with the exception of No. 1) during an event and they all hid behind you when Barbatos came to scold them
if No. 1 and No. 4 happen to both be around you they will *try* to get along
No. 1
takes great pride when you compliment or comment on the state of the castle or the decor for events
makes sure to keep the other Little D's in order so your visit is less chaotic
makes sure you have everything you need during your stay and that you're comfortable
carries a clipboard while instructing the other Little D's on their tasks
No. 2
will follow you around when you visit if he has the chance, he'll happily chatter away and keep you company
likes to play with your keychains or jewelry (mainly bracelets or rings)
wants updates on Mammon so he has new material to tease him about
he'll come to you as soon as he finds out Mammon is doing something somewhere he shouldn't be and will stand behind you while you lecture Mammon (100% teases Mammon later about it)
No. 3
wants to talk to you when you visit but he tends to linger in the background if your attention is toward another Little D or he leaves and sulks somewhere until you seek him out
when he does get to talk to you it's usually about which current video game you're playing or show you're watching
if you let him he'll happily observe you playing a video game and offer tips on how to defeat bosses or where to find special items
he loves when you have commentary on a video game or show because he gets to join in and it makes him feel happy that you care about what he thinks or says
No. 4
doesn't say it but he likes it when you sometimes intervene during one of his tantrums or notice when he's frustrated/angry because you usually end up going on a walk with him around the castle or outside
usually does tasks in the library because he knows where the books go and how to take care of them properly
happily fetches any book you'd like to read and loves it when you listen to his suggestions for your next read or listen to his thoughts on a book you've just finished reading
likes it when you let him sit next to you or let him sit on your lap while you read to him
No. 5
checks himself out in any reflective surface which delays his tasks but he can't help that he's so cute
makes sure he looks his best before you arrive even though he knows you always compliment him or give him attention
makes sure there's fresh flowers in the guest room for you and loves it when you comment on how pretty they are or how good they smell and how sweet he is for doing so (sometimes he'll opt for a nice candle, and if you own a candle warmer he'll give you some wax melts to take back to the HoL)
does the flower arrangements for events and likes it when No. 1 gives him praise about them
No. 6
gets extra excited when you visit the castle because you bring him little treats sometimes
one time Barbatos caught you doing so and No. 6 took off running with a box of goldfish, leaving a small trail behind
brings you your apron and makes sure there is a hand towel nearby if your hands get messy and that you have everything you need for food prep
tries to finish his tasks quicker if you're coming over to bake/cook with Barbatos because you let him have some of the leftover ingredients or let him be your taste tester
No. 7
likes to nap in your lap or anywhere as long as it's in the same room as you
has taken a nap on your head before
he naps in odd places like Belphie does, you found him snoozing on top of the fridge one time and on top of a bookshelf (which really annoyed No. 4)
will make sure you're comfy at night, he knows if you like an extra pillow or blanket and how you like the temperature to be before bed

the brothers meeting mc's cat
mc's gender is not mentioned, not proof read
content warnings: none
-----
Lucifer
do not let satan see the cat or he will get the headache of his life
at first he doesn't really care for the cat but he must admit they are cute
lucifer may or may not be quietly hoping for your cat to come sit down in his lap or something
he sits near the cat and sometimes hopefully glances over to them
don't point it out though
Mammon
immediately runs over to the cat and if they don't run away he'll start petting them and talking to them in one of those high pitched voices
the shame sets in once he realises you saw how happy he was to see a cat
'uh no mc you must have seen it wrong, I was just clearing my throat'
he will not be quiet about it if the cat meows at him
Leviathan
he'll admire the cat from afar he doesn't feel like petting them
because what if your cat hates him and scratches him
if the cat comes near him on their own he will try petting but will pull his hand away if the cat does that thing where they look up when you're trying to pet them
also levi thinks it super cute when cats loaf
Satan
you have just made his entire week simply by owning a cat
no matter how shy your cat might be eventually they will warm up to satan, since he knows many different types of cats
he always says 'oh big stretch' when your cat stretches
his whole ddd might crash due to the huge amount of pictures he will take of your cat
he will not leave the cat's side when they're in the same room
Asmodeus
he will take selfies with your cat first of all, also pictures with you, him and the cat together if you're okay with it
even if the cat doesn't like new people or something and they're sitting somewhere on a high shelf asmo will take a selfie with the cat in the background
if the cat is an adult he'd like to see pictures from back when they were a kitten of you have those
Beelzebub
he thinks your cat is adorable but he probably won't try to pet them as often as some of the others might try
beel will pet the cat when they approach him though
one time he put his workout mat on the floor and left it unattended for 5 minutes, he came back and your cat was sleeping on it
anyways beel did the workout on the floor without mat and let the cat sleep
Belphegor
he goes 'omg a cat' for a while before it kind of gets old
he does like to pet your cat though when they come to him, he loves how the fur feels (if your cat has fur)
belphie stares in admiration at how your cat can sleep in some insane positions
he did buy your cat a pillow once because he thought it would be cute

Overprotective Part 2
The first post of this story can be found here. The post this story was based off of can be found here.
Your words hit Lucifer like a truck. He grabs your arm, stopping you, and when you turn to yell at him, you pause when you see the visible fear and pain in his expression.
You two are soon joined by Mammon and Beelzebub standing in the doorway, having followed you in your frustration. The two arrive just in time to hear Lucifer ask you "What do you mean you hope you die?"
You didn't really mean it, you were just SO tired. So fucking tired. So done with having every little thing in your life softened and controlled.
Before you can answer, Mammon blurts out "WHAT D'YA MEAN YOU WANNA DIE!?" while Beelzebub quietly stares at you, trying to understand.
Mammon's outburst attracts everyone in the house. It's hard not to hear him.
Soon the brothers are all spilling out the door, and you think you can even see Belphegor somewhere hidden in the background.
You sigh. "… I can't keep doing this thing where you guys control every part of my life. I can barely deal with you controlling ANY part of my life." You shrug Lucifer's grip off your arm, and you finally begin to address the issue head-on.
You look to Levi; "I want to be able to watch sad movies and sad shows. I want to enjoy the angst. I want to be able to cry. It's good! It's healthy! What ISN'T healthy, is avoiding sad things all the time, like they're going to kill me!"
Levi cuts in; "But they COULD kill you!" before quickly getting quiet again, not meaning to talk over you.
You stare at him in frustration and confusion. "… What do you MEAN they can kill me?"
"Humans who watch more sad shows tend to live shorter lives.."
"…" It begins to click for you. But you also have to rectify this misinformation; "Levi, those statistics don't imply causality. If they're even real, they'd imply correlation. People who only watch sad things that are painful probably aren't living very happy lives to begin with. They're probably trying to cope through a tough reality, which would likely be the REAL cause of their shortened lifespan, in conjunction with a HUGE number of other factors."
"…"
"Watching sad shows is good, and can even help with test-running sad scenarios before they happen in a low-stakes environment, which is GOOD for emotional health and wellbeing."
"…"
"If all I ever do is watch sad shows, then yeah, maybe I need help. But that's not the same as watching a few in a rotation of other medias."
Leviathan looks rather embarrassed.
"And you!" You turn your attention towards Asmodeus. "Asmo, you can't keep trying to destress me all the time! Stop giving me creams and tinctures and your new balm of the week! I want to stay up! I want to live a little messy!"
"But those things are GOOD for you! I never push anything on you that I didn't already use myself!"
"That works FOR YOU - It's not going to work for everyone! It makes my stress WORSE when I have to adhere to your strict regimen! It's exhausting and frustrating, and it takes any joy I got out of sharing those bonding moments with you, and sucks the life out of it!"
Asmodeus realizes he never considered that you weren't enjoying being doted on. He LOVES being doted on, so he thought you would want the same thing. Looking at you now though, and realizing his behavior contributed to this stress and this problem that's coming to a head now, he feels… Not great.
As Asmodeus gets quiet, you look to Satan, who is surprised. "Satan, I get that you're worried about my health, but when you treat me like I'm not doing enough? It's so fucking insulting. Telling me to take care of my health like I'm not already doing that. Telling me the statistics of illnesses and injuries isn't useful, it's fear-mongering at best."
"I just thought that someone in this house should be wary of what can befall a human - You're all so delicate."
"But when you treat me like I'm paper, all I want to do is just tear myself apart! If I can't walk down a set of stairs without you telling me the statistics of stair-related injuries and trying to hold my hand, I'm never going to feel like I can live my life! Imagine if YOU had someone constantly walking through your room, telling you the statistics of book avalanche-related injuries, while touching all your stuff and changing everything so you can't live the way you want to!"
The contrast to his own life makes Satan double-take. He never realized he was being controlling and invasive, but your comparison brings light to how his behavior could damage your relationship. "… It would be rage-inducing."
"Exactly! And Belphegor!" Belphegor tries to hide himself, but the brothers part under your frustrated gaze, and you can see the sleep demon anxiously shifting under your scrutiny. "Belphegor, why are you avoiding me??"
"….." He's quiet, struggling to put words to everything. Beelzebub realizes his brother's been hurting, and he hasn't realized because he was so concerned with your wellbeing. Beelzebub gently rubs Belphegor's back, and Belphegor covers his face, looking away as he finally is able to get out the words; ".. I didn't want to hurt you."
His reasoning is different from everyone else's. It's reasonable in the fact that it's already happened.
Though, what DOES make it unreasonable, you have no problem telling him; "If you don't want to kill me, you're not going to! You don't kill people you don't want to! And besides, if it's a fear of accidentally hurting me, that's normal! People accidentally hurt the people they love all the time! People don't accidentally KILL the people they love all the time, and what you did to me when I first arrived in Devildom WASN'T AN ACCIDENT!"
Belphegor is silent, soaking in your explanation.
Your voice softens as you become a little less frustrated, being able to voice everything that's been bottled up inside; "SO- As long as you don't want to kill me, you're not going to. And if you accidentally hurt me? I'll heal. We'll work through it together-"
"What if I hurt you in a way you can't heal from? Demons are strong and- …" It chokes on the edge of his tongue, threatening to come out. He tries to hold it back, but he can't. "And.. I know better than anyone how easy it is to snap your neck. It was like a toothpick. Do you know how terrifying it is to realize that I have to control my strength to that level around you? All it takes is one playful shove, and you could end up in the hospital- Or worse. You're so much more delicate than you realize, and we have to be so much more careful than you realize."
It's here that a silence comes over everyone as you soak in his explanation. You never really realized how difficult it was for the demons to reign in their strength to keep you safe. You thought it was fairly breezy, since everyone else seemed so relaxed until recently.
It's your turn to feel sheepish.
".. I'm.. Sorry. I didn't know. But there has to be a middleground. You avoiding me makes me feel awful. I feel unloved and unwanted and ignored. I don't want to be safe at the cost of our relationship. And my safety shouldn't be an ultimatum."
"…." Belphegor's eyes are sad, and he's been trying to hold back the tears, but he can't. Beelzebub holds him and tries to comfort his brother.
The demon of gluttony realizes he too has been trying to control your life too, which has probably been causing you undue stress, which is probably why you ran out here in the first place. ".. I'm sorry for making your life more stressful, _. I want to keep you safe, but it's obvious that I should have talked with you about it."
The apologies start spilling as one by one, the brothers begin apologizing for controlling your life and making you feel ostracized.
Mammon doesn't apologize as he doesn't feel like he crossed any boundaries, and makes it known when Asmodeus elbows him. "Hey, I didn't cross any boundaries!"
"… I mean, trying to feed me shady vitamins out of a bag is hilarious, but also probably not exactly healthy."
"But I've been making you better food too! Packin' the nutrients in!"
"Is THAT why you learned to cook all these new dishes??"
"YEAH!"
"…" His kindness and effort were sweet, and the least invasive of the brothers' attempts to help you and prolong your life.
But those weren't the only things he was doing. "I need you to stop trying to give me protein shakes and vitamins and whatever 'health supplement' you find on the shelf. The health supplement market is really messed up. I've lowkey been avoiding most of what you give me, because there's no regulation in that market, and it actually COULD hurt me."
He's stunned. He figured some of his methods might've been a bit harmful, but he also figured he would get enough right that it would cancel all the bad stuff out.
You continue; "Can we all find a middleground? Why are you all so scared of me dying right now? Did something happen?"
Lucifer nods, having been listening; "I think a middle-ground would be better. If you're feeling stifled, that's not healthy either. And it's obvious we need to take better care of you-"
"Why do you NEED to take care of me?" You turn to Lucifer, exhaustively. It stops him in his tracks and he stares at you, confused.
"… Because you're precious to us."
"But I'm not helpless. Do you not trust me to reach out when things are getting difficult? I can advocate for myself, Lucifer! It's so demeaning when you treat me like you know better, and like I'm just some bumbling idiot who you have to keep from dying!"
The words cut deep. The last thing he ever wanted to do was to make you feel like he looked down on you. You are one of the most important people in his life, and he adores you. The fact that you haven't been able to see that causes Lucifer to become quiet as he reflects on his own behavior.
He should have reigned in his brothers. He should have given you space. He should have advocated more for giving you your own voice, not talking over you with what you should have been doing.
It all seems so clear and so obvious, but it took you speaking up for him to realize how much he's been ignoring your emotional needs in care of your physical health.
And with this whole meltdown, he's realizing that it was the breaking point.
"I too, am sorry, _. I never meant to make things more difficult for you. I love you dearly. I will be better, going forward."
You finally seem to relax as he apologizes.
But he continues; "Can we please talk about your mortality, though?"
Everyone can see it's not exactly a conversation you WANT to have. But you know it's one you need to have. ".. Okay."
Levi sputters out with his frustration first; "If you die, then I won't be able to share the rest of my life with you. There's so much that can happen when you're gone. I know you're not going to live long, and it scares me. I don't want to reach a day where I want to knock on your door to ask you to hang out, but I know you'll never answer." He's tearing up as he says this, his body physically shaking.
Asmodeus gently rests a hand on Leviathan's shoulder, looking to you, a sad expression on his face. ".. I think a lot of us share that sentiment. We want to get in as many good memories as we can, because you are such a precious, amazing, wonderful person. You are a once-in-eternity kind of person, and we will never be able to fill the hole you'll leave when you die. It's so hard to think of moving on when we've barely gotten to share a life with you."
Satan fidgets with his fingers against his leg, but he can't keep himself contained any longer, cutting in; "Solomon's here to stay forever, why can't you be too? We know it's possible. We know you could stay alive forever. The bastard says he doesn't remember what he did to curse himself with immortality, and every immortality curse I've found comes at a great cost…" He finally looks to you directly. "But all of that aside, it's hard to even broach the topic with you. Do you WANT to live forever? It would be selfish for us to ask you to carry the pain of watching every one of us die, just because we can't bear the sight of losing you. I can't bear the sight of losing you.. But it feels so selfish. And I don't want you to ever reach a point where that sorcerer is the only friend you still have left that hasn't died. …" His voice trails off in frustration, losing his train of thought to the idea of you living eternity alone with Solomon. You can see Satan's grappled with this issue for a while.
Belphegor picks up where Satan left off; "It's hard to imagine a world without you. You came into our lives, and it was like breathing for the first time in a long time. We love who we are because of you.. And I think we're all scared of who we'll become when you're gone. Losing you will be right up there with losing Lilith as the worst things we've ever experienced, and we won't have another you who can help us through it. We wouldn't WANT another you. …. But we simultaneously recognize that it's not your responsibility to help us through it."
Seeing his brothers going back and forth about their feelings, Mammon can't help but be grounded in the moment. ".. I think we wanna take responsibility for it now, because when you're gone, we're gonna hafta take responsibility for it anyways, yeah? …" He looks anywhere but directly at you. "…" His silence is hard as he chokes back the tears, trying not to fall apart in front of his brothers, but between Levi's crying and Asmo's sniffling and everyone else's pain, it's hard for Mammon to keep strong.
So Lucifer steps up to the plate. "We're sorry for pushing all of this on you, _. It shouldn't be your responsibility to help us through the pain and loss that hasn't even afflicted us yet. It's hard to talk about this without accidentally putting pressure on you to choose an eternity that could hurt you so much worse in the long run, just to keep our own heads on straight. Do you understand? We promise, it was never meant to make you feel belittled, we just.. We've never dealt with something like this before; A slow attrition of loss that we either have to accept, or find a way to fight.." He gently rubs your back, looking you in the eyes. ".. And we've never really been the kind of people to back down from a fight."
"…" It all makes sense. And hearing their hearts laid bear like this clutches at your heart. You never wanted them to feel like they couldn't come to you about this, but you understand how it got this bad. It would take facing all of their fears and letting you come to an answer at your own pace, without pressuring you. THAT'S why they tried to prolong your life without saying anything. THAT'S why they kept talking about your health. THAT'S why they kept trying to circumvent the issue.
You continue; ".. I appreciate the honesty, guys. I love you all too. I don't want to leave you guys all alone, but.. You're right. Immortality would be a huge decision. If it's even achievable. … And I understand why this all happened. I understand why you guys pushed the way you did. I think we should keep talking about this, but, taking it a little slower. That way, you guys aren't completely holding back the floodgates, but I also don't get overwhelmed. Whatever happened, whatever fate I choose for myself, I do want it to be my own decision. But I think I NEED to make that decision. I've put it off because I didn't really want to think about it, but.. I don't want to put it off until it's out of our hands."
Lucifer rubs into your back, listening. All the brothers listen.
"Until then, until I figure out if I want eternity or not, can we please go back to how things used to be? I'll do my best to take good care of myself, and advocate my needs, but I need you guys to trust me that I'm going to take care of myself and let me live a little, even if it's risky. I promise, I'm not going to be diving off the roof, but I want to be able to play games that make me sad, eat junk food that gives me pimples and might not be GREAT for my heart. I want to hang out with you guys, even if I could get hurt. I want to not be reminded of my mortality constantly, and be able to make my own choices about my own limits. I promise to be good to myself and reach out if I'm struggling, but you guys gotta promise to be willing to let me take more responsibility for my life again."
"You need some good things in your life though." Levi doesn't want his efforts to get lost in the shuffle.
"I'll make sure to set aside time to enjoy good shows with you that are happy and show how good life can be. Can you sit with me through the sad ones and help me pick up the pieces?"
Levi nods, wiping his eyes.
Asmodeus takes this chance to add; "You also need to be gentler with yourself. You can't be up at all hours of the night every night."
"I'll be good about my self-care, making sure I'm getting good sleep and relaxation. Can you love on me when I don't want to be presentable and good and I want to just throw caution to the wind sometimes when it comes to the littler self-care things? I don't want every minute I spend with you guys to be an exercise in avoiding death. I want to LIVE a little, which means we'll get messy and make some bad decisions sometimes."
"Of course. But only if you're not letting yourself fall to ruin. I don't want to watch you waste away.."
"I promise I'll reach out if I start to struggle, and I'll accept your help if that time comes."
"Thank you."
"And your health-" Satan adds, a little embarrassed, but not wanting it to go unaddressed. "You need to be wary of how dangerous this world is, and how fragile a human body is."
"I won't go throwing myself down the stairs or taking wildly unnecessary risks - So long as you let me take risks and get hurt sometimes. I'd rather you help me patch myself up after getting burned or cut than to live my life constantly cushioned." You look to him so earnestly that Satan is flustered, but he understands. Life without risk isn't exactly living.
"I think I can do that."
You look to Belphegor, who has been quiet this whole time. ".. And Belphegor, can you please be in my life again? I miss you."
"… What if I hurt you again?"
"We'll figure it out together."
"What if I can't control myself?"
"You have 6 brothers who will happily kick your entire ass if you go Human Murderer on me again. You should rely on your support system. Don't be afraid of fighting with me. We need to be able to have fights and disagree and have bad days sometimes. What matters is coming back together and making things right, and relying on our support systems so it doesn't get out of hand. Alright?"
Upon mention, his brothers quickly crowd him and hug him and hold him, reminding him that he's not alone in this. He's not alone in learning how to be better to you.
"…." Belphegor nods, tearing up again, soaking in everyone's love.
Mammon scratches his cheek as he looks to the side and adds "Since we're all talkin' about ways you can stay alive longer.. Can we come to you when we find stuff that could be an option? There's gotta be more options than forever immortality an' death, yeah? Witches stay alive for ages!"
"… Only if you don't pressure me to take it, and you let me be the ultimate decider, and you don't bombard me with stuff all the time. I don't want you coming at me with 'Prolong your life now' schemes every other day. I want to be able to live with you guys, and live the life I have, however long it's going to be. Alright?"
".. Alright." Mammon seems more comforted in the idea that he can keep looking for ways to give you more options.
Beelzebub slowly moves towards you, silently wrapping his arms around you in a hug. You hug him back. The brothers begin all coming close to hug you. Beelzebub apologizes once more; ".. We're sorry for stressing you out. Thank you for listening to us and our concerns. You're important to us. We love you."
Hugging as many of them back as you can as you're squeezed softly into the fold, you respond; "Thank you guys for talking to me about it instead of continuing to be weird and stand-offish. We'll figure it out as we go. In the meanwhile, let's make good memories."
The brothers begin heading inside, you following them.
Lucifer lags behind a little, tugging a trinket out of his pocket. It's a pendant which would keep you from aging which he picked up thinking you might like it - But considering the conversation and the boundaries you've just set, he thinks it would be best to just.. Be in the moment with you.
He stuffs it back into his pocket and comes to join the group in the house, and he opens the door just in time to hear Levi cry out "NO BUT THAT IS THE SADDEST ANIME EVER-" followed by your hallowed cackling of 'making up for lost time'. Lucifer smiles to himself.
However long they have with you, it's the greatest treasure of all.

Dirty Pop(sicles)
When a human can’t even enjoy a popsicle on the beach without inviting salacious thoughts, you do what you have to do, toothache be damned. 
Content warnings: suggestive content but nothing explicit
It starts with Beel, which means it’s pretty innocent at first.
“Hey, you want one?” The gentle giant approaches you with his big cooler of snacks. He even ducks under the shade of your beach umbrella so that you don’t have to stretch far to reach him. “You look like you’re melting there.”
“Hell yes, please.” You rummage inside, resisting the urge to just stick your whole head in, and grab the first thing you touch, which turns out to be a flat popsicle. “Thanks Beel, you’re a lifesaver!”
“You’re welcome, though maybe you shouldn’t have that one. It might burn your tongue off.” He swaps your treat with another from the cooler. “Try this instead, it should be safe for humans.”
“My hero.”
You seriously consider asking Diavolo to turn down the heat. It’s his magic beach, so surely he can tweak the temperature to make it a little more bearable? Basking in the warmth of the artificial sun had been nice and all, but you slowly found yourself feeling less lethargic and more uncomfortable as the hours passed. The weather’s gotten so sweltering that you’ve opted to hide under an umbrella for the rest of the day.
In contrast, the popsicle feels like heaven. You would have used it as an ice pack on your body if not for the sticky residue it would leave on your skin. Eager for relief, you don’t hesitate to stick the entire thing into your mouth. Your cheeks bulge slightly from its width, but you don’t gag even as it teases the back of your throat. You flatten your tongue against the broad side and slide it out with a soft moan of delight before nibbling and sucking lightly at the tip.
You don’t notice the way the entire beach goes quiet.
“...That looks delicious,” Belphie comments, sprawled out on a blanket of his own. He rolls over to face you and props himself up, seeming more awake than ever. “How does it taste?”
“So good,” you sigh happily, detaching your lips from the icy treat to lick at your hand, where some of the vanilla cream had melted and dripped down. Somewhere in your peripheral vision, you see Mammon and Asmo frantically digging through Beel’s cooler. “You should grab one too if you’re feeling warm.”
“Maybe later.” Belphie lies back down, but doesn’t look away from you.
You don’t know what has warranted his full attention, but it quickly dawns on you that the other brothers are staring as well. “What, is there something on my face?”
Someone to your side extends a handkerchief just as you’re about to wipe at your lips. “Just a little cream, nothing to fret about.”
Solomon laughs next to a smiling Simeon. “Careful, the heat’s melting it faster than you’re eating. Better finish soon before it gets messy.”
“Shoot, you’re right.” The popsicle is much smaller now, making it easier for you to shove it into your mouth again. You purse your lips and slowly pull out the stick, leaving the chunk of icy sweetness inside for you to melt with your tongue and swallow. “Done! Man, that really hit the spot.”
“Here, why don’t you have another?”
In sync for once, Mammon and Asmo hand you another popsicle from the cooler. This one is long and rounded and striped with every color of the rainbow. Your mouth instantly waters at the sight, and you accept the treat readily. “Aww, thanks guys!”
All eyes are on you as you wrap your lips around the red tip. Strawberry flavored, you note absently. You make a show of licking and sucking, shallowly dipping the popsicle in and out of your mouth. Then you push it all the way in, letting it tickle the back of your throat. Pulling out halfway, you rest it on your tongue for a moment as you grin—
—and bite down on the ice, instantly crushing half of it between your teeth with an audible crunch.
The soft groans in the background are very quickly silenced.
Simeon’s and Solomon’s smiles are frozen on their faces, while Lucifer and Satan can’t look you in the eye. Asmo and Belphie seem like they’re about to throw up, a red-faced Levi has fainted dead onto the sand, Mammon is covering his crotch protectively, and Beel…
Sweet, precious Beel continues to munch on his snacks, popsicle sticks littered all around him, absolutely oblivious to his brothers’ torment.
.
.
.
Later that night at the resort…
The soft glow of warm light fades away, and you sigh in relief. “Thank you, that feels much better.”
Luke removes his small hands from your cheeks. “You shouldn’t chew on popsicles like that, it’s bad for your teeth!” He scolds you with a cute frown. “You’re lucky I know how to cure toothaches.”
“Yes, yes, I’ve learnt my lesson,” you promise, giving him a big hug in gratitude.
Worth it, you think gleefully.

A Love for Another
a/n: ok I’m done writing fluff it’s back to angst now haha. anyway sorry for the small hiatus from writing i’ve been so sick, but you can expect the next chapter of a humans wrath tomorrow/ today (it’s like the middle of the night where i am and i can’t sleep lmao)
anyway i had to indulge myself a bit with this because of the new nightbringer lesson so here’s some solomon angst. enjoy!
warnings: potential nightbringer spoilers
“I can never get you to look at me the way you look at them”
Tumblr media
Life was like a bliss for Solomon now.
He was so excited to live with you. Especially since he liked the idea of you coming home to see him, as well as having dinner with you every night. Shopping and gossiping with you was just as exhilarating for him as he thought. And cleaning with you was just as fun.
Finally; he could finally have you all to himself without the demon brothers interfering
But it was only for a while.
He never had your full attention anymore, it was always somewhere else, and he knew exactly where and who it was focused on.
No matter what he did, no matter how nice he was, or even if he protected you, it was never enough.
You still went back to them.
You still tried, even though it hurt, and Solomon knew just how badly they hurt you. You promised things they didn’t even understand the severity of. You vowed your life to them without a second thought, nothing would stop you from getting closer to them. You were determined to get back to the life you knew with the demons you so desperately loved.
You would even go so far as to put them above humanity itself; did it ever occur to you the severity of a choice such as that?
All of humanity. You, a human, would side with demons if it came down to choosing sides. Maybe he was a tad too overconfident in your feelings towards him and humanity. He could say he never suspected you to do such a thing, but with how close you and the brothers were in the present he now realized that he should have been more cautious.
When it came to the demon brothers, your sense of reason and duty was thrown out the window, instead you would always choose to be stubborn and do what you thought would be best for them.
You put your life on the line for these demons countless times over and over. You did so in the present, which resulted in threats against your life multiple times, and you’re doing so in the past. What do you hope to gain from doing that? Solomon couldn’t possibly understand.
They didn’t even know you MC, he did.
He knew everything about you. Your favorite food, favorite color, your favorite song, your dreams, your ambitions, everything. Whenever you explained something about yourself he found himself intently listening with every fiber of his being.
Why? Simple really.
Solomon was hopelessly in love with you from the beginning.
But he never had a chance to act on his feelings, because he always felt as if he belonged in the background while all the brothers stole your attention. Of course he hung out with you on multiple occasions but they never let him get too close, in fear of losing your attention to the witty sorcerer.
But what didn’t help was the fact you didn’t seem to mind them taking your attention either. You always found your way back to the seven of them whether you meant to or not. Lastly the most unpleasant thing was the fact that half of the brothers were already starting to develop feelings for you.
It was way too soon for that.
He saw the way Mammon would stutter over his words or how bright red his face became when you smiled at him. Or the way Levi would now unconsciously look for you to drag off to his room so you could spend time with him. And the way Asmo became more open and comfortable with you, to the point where he would always have to be touching you. Or even the way Lucifer now looked at you, or especially when he would flat out ask for your help and no one else’s.
It tore him apart inside because this was finally his chance to have you all to himself without any distractions. Even with the brothers now developing feelings for you again they weren’t the biggest obstacle he had to overcome.
The biggest obstacle he was currently facing was you.
You were the only thing standing in his way of trying to take that step forward with you.
Of course he’d never do anything without your consent so he waited. Hoped, and even thought about praying to someone, anyone that maybe you felt the same as he did.
He even believed you did for a while when you opened up to him more after the two of you started living together. However that dream was soon shattered when he saw the way you gazed at them the more they spoke to you.
A gaze so full of admiration and longing, but also one of pure and utter love. A gaze so utterly beautiful and full of emotion that could even shake the three realms. It reminded him of something you said to him recently about the brothers.
“No matter how many times I meet them, I will always fall in love with them.” You said to him, with an expression so full of pure determination.
It caused him to wonder did he look at you like that?
No, no gaze of that magnitude could even come close to the way you looked at the demon brothers.
He wished that were him, but he knows that deep down that he’ll never be on the receiving end of that gaze. So even in the past he feels like an outsider. But sometimes that’s just the way things are meant to be.
Maybe he was never destined to be with you, or you were just never destined to feel that way about him. No matter the cause, you were already wholeheartedly in love with the brothers, and he had to come to accept that.
It’s all right in the end, because he’s come to believe that staying by your side will be enough for him.
Even when it doesn’t feel like enough, he’ll deal with it.
As long as you're happy, so is he. So he can bury these feelings of jealousy and desperation if you’re content with falling in love with the brothers all over again.
However his love for you will never falter, you could even say it’s one that could possibly transcend time itself.

Hiii!! I love love Looovveee your recent obey me post. Its so?? How do I say this, unique in a way. I lovee the way you wrote it and the concept you used! Could u pls make a part 2? I am wayy too invested
Even if you don't make one, thank u for making such a great story😊😊😊
Hii! I'm so sorry for the late reply! I wanted to answer you with the part 2 hahaha. Thank you for your words (they are very much appreciated ♡), I'm glad you like it (⁠ ⁠◜⁠‿⁠◝⁠ ) 💕
I already wrote the entire thing, sadly I'm really slow when it comes to edit it.
Part 1. ಠ⁠‿⁠ಠ
Last time I forgot to clarify something, I decided that the new exchange student will be "Sc" since one time in some Fanfic the exchange student had my name (She stole the brothers and also my name, the audacity JAJAJA). If your name is Sc I'm deeply sorry, I know that identity theft Is not a joke
Get out of my way 🌈
You woke up drowsy and tired but your finger was perfect. “Looks like I'm fucking amazing.” even though your mouth was dry and you could feel a growing headache, the satisfaction of healing such a horrible wound was all you needed to regain your good humor. At least that's what you’d like to say, but it wasn't entirely true, you lacked something essential: revenge.
“Oooh, mini Little D! Yoo-hoo!” you looked at every corner of your room but there was no hint of said demon. “Did I imagine it?” no, that would mean not only that you are delusional, but your well-deserved achievement would disappear too.
You headed to the dining room, wary of your surroundings, trying to spot a black shadow. You were so distracted by the mission at hand that you missed how the room suddenly went quiet, how everyone tensed.
“Good morning, Mc.” Lucifer was the first to speak, in response, you simply nodded. It seemed to everyone that you were mad and distant, but in reality you were too absorbed in your own thoughts. “There must be a way to prove what happened yesterday.” you started to chewing the food on your plate, not even caring for what it was.
“M-Mc! Today we're planning to do a movie night again.” Being in your own world, the brothers’ chatter became background noise and thus you missed the fact that Levi's voice sounded nervous and somehow guilty. In the two years you had been in the Devildom, never before you had seen or heard about those mini Little D.'s
“We should see that movie you wanted to see.” Satan said, feigning indifference, trying hard to hide the fact that he was dying to know what had happened yesterday. Were you okay? Are you mad at him? He can feel the wrath inside you. You haven’t read with him in a while and now you don’t even meet his eyes, he was not angry but anxious.
What if you’ve gone crazy? Oh god, this is the last thing you need. No, no, it's obvious that it happened. There must be information in somewhere, you can always ask Solomon too. “Lucifer promised that he will come too!” Sc added.
“Mc? You'll come, right? I'll lend you my pillow, this special time.” Until that moment you hadn't notice they were talking, what is worse, they had been talking to you. Why would you want Belphie's pillow? “Uhh... No, I don't need your pillow Belphie, thanks?” “But you will come to the movie night?” Another movie night? They must have really enjoyed last night if they want to repeat it, however, you have other concerns. “Hmm, no thank you Levi-”
Suddenly, it had been for a brief moment, but you had seen a black shadow moving behind Levi. With your mouth still open and narrowing your eyes, you kept looking for the shadow. “-ahhh...” you noticed the gazes of each person at the table and quickly regain your composure. “aahh-than, Leviathan. Hahaha…haha… ha.” You smiled, a curious contrast to Levi, whose face visibly dropped.
The dining room grew tremendously silent, you knew it was your fault but you'll apologize later. For now, you wanted to talk with Solomon as fast as you could and so you started eating faster.
Moments later, Mammon began talking, he blushed and a frown appeared too (his useless attempt to hide his embarrassment). Sc just laughed and rolled her eyes, not without shooting quick glances at you. Everything was normal, but then you saw a black shadow behind Mammon. You tried to move so you could have a better look, but Mammon moved too. You moved again and so did Mammon. You frowned and moved once more, but the Avatar of Greed stood in your way again. “Mc, are ya even listening?!” “Fuck, Mammon! Could you please move?!” you pushed him aside but the Little D. was gone.
Everyone seemed surprised, you’d never use that tone with Mammon before, the white-haired demon saddened almost immediately, averted your eyes and muttered a weak “sorry”. You cleared your throat, suddenly very aware that everyone was looking at you. “Mc, are you okay?” Lucifer asked you.
“No! A Little D. Wants to eat my soul!” But you can’t tell him that. The worry on his features was growing, why cannot you tell him? It's actually what you should do, right? “Mc?”
“I...” The moment you spoke, a perfect copy of Lucifer appeared behind the demon, it was Lucifer but completely black, his clothes, his eyes, his teeth, everything. Of course, it was a Little D. But not so little.
“I can't lie, I'm surprised by the new exchange student’s grades.” The copy of Lucifer imitated him, his voice was identical. You knew what he was going to say next, after all, you had this same conversation with Lucifer some weeks ago.
“Yes! She's pretty clever. She even helped me with some council work.” you thought it wouldn't be a big deal but Lucifer proved you wrong. “That's supposed to be your responsibility, Mc.” “Maybe she should be the council officer, right?” You said, trying to downplay the matter in hopes of avoiding the lecture. “She’d do a better job.” ouch.
“Hey! Don’t be mean!” you elbowed him in a friendly way, it was a feeble attempt to hiding your hurt while asking for an apology. “I should ask for her help instead of yours, looking how you enjoy slacking off.” You rolled your eyes. “Sure.” “Don’t come to my office tonight, then.” You stopped, his face was emotionless, as if he were talking about the weather.
Since when Lucifer treat you like this?
No, you don't need a pompous peacock. You could do this alone. You saw the brothers, they looked worried, but where have they been these last few weeks? The growing frustration inside you led you to believe that maybe you needed some time to cool off.
The copy of Lucifer smirked, satisfied. Did he think you fell into his trap? That only made you angrier, you'll erase that smile.
“Mc?” Lucifer asked again, frowning. The look in your eyes was cold, he tried to reach you but you looked at his hand in disgust. Were you repulsed by his touch? That cannot be true, right? But you backed away. He saw wrath in your eyes, were you mad at him? Understandable, he knew that his attitude had been inexcusable but- “I'm fine.” you whispered but you weren't hungry anymore. You got up and handed your half full plate to Beelzebub. Excusing yourself, you headed to RAD.
“They didn't even notice that I made their favorite food.” Mammon looked so miserable that his brothers decided not to tease at all. “They called me by my full name.” Levi mumbled, surely overthinking that small detail. Lucifer’s gaze was on his hands, he didn’t know what to do with them.
You, on the other hand, were practically running towards RAD, only a thought in your mind. You were definitely going to kick that Little D. ass.
Part 3. ಠ⁠‿⁠ಠ
Thanks for reading! (⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠━⁠☆゚⁠.⁠*⁠・⁠。゚

@bigprincessrebel hi! I just saw your ask and ummmm so it's gonna have to be part of a somewhat bigger series of posts? I already have two asks about the morality of demons that I'm going to turn into one post, I've got a post about the functioning of the Celestial Realm vs Devildom and how that affects their morality/values in my drafts -> both would relate a lot to your ask. I also have a post about religion vs the the Celestial Realm & Devildom floating around somewhere that I should find cause it's also relevant. But I'm really busy these days so all that might take some time so till then here's a summary of my thoughts
I think it's dumb to believe Diavolo's a shitty ruler because he wants peace between the realms and demons are supposed to be evil? And to believe that the other demons won't like him because of that? Because:
1. The game literally said that Diavolo's voted the most popular demon every year
2. Lots of the background demons have made friends with not only MC (a human) but also with the angels. Hell Luke has demon friends outside of the main characters. Also like pretty sure lots of demons are romantically attracted to humans? Given how there was a queue to give MC Valentine's day presents
Okay but here are the more serious points:
3. It's heavily implied and straight up shown that the Celestial Realm does not equal Heaven the same way the Devildom does not equal Hell. (I have a whole post breaking this down and going into detail that I'll add when I properly answer your ask) meaning that in the same way that OM's angels' aren't inherently good, its demons aren't inherently bad. If you actually stop and look at it, you'll notice that the angels are more prone to everyday violence than the demons eg: Diavolo's solution to stopping an angry dragon being talking to it while Simeon's was to fight it (and we see that Diavolo's solution actually worked). Michael's punishments as an angel were scarier than Lucifer's punishments as a demon. Just generally how trigger happy Raphael is vs how weirdly kind Mammon is
4. OM! may borrow characters and certain plot elements from christianity but it's not a direct parallel or reflection of it so if you try to apply the logic of the "real" stories to these characters then the characters and the world they live in stop making sense and you get a warped version of the story where the demons are pure evil and Diavolo's a shitty leader for trying to go against their nature. The best way, in my opinion, to enjoy it is to acknowledge that there are similarities but ultimately analyse it independently. Using the lens of christianity to look at stories that don't completely follow it is how you end up with things like Disney's Hercules (a fun time but not accurate to the actual source material)
5. A BIG part of obey me is about overcoming prejudice. Like it's not even subtext. It's right there. The angels are shown to see demons as pure evil and a big part of the story is showing them that actually they're also just people. We see this in the Devilgram where Lucifer & Diavolo first meet, in the flashback where Simeon and Diavolo first meet, this is literally the entirety of Luke's arc/character development and in certain things said and done by Michael, Raphael and even Mammon. This....this huge part of the story wouldn't work if the demons actually were evil and Diavolo was just an idealistic idiot...
Anyway this was the summarised version, believe it or not!

As pointed out, those two Hellhounds definitely look like Vaggie and Velvette. ^_^ I just love it when shows do that. :)
Even in silhouette, Beelzebub looks amazing. ^_^<3<3<3
Of course, seeing her luscious colors and powers at work certainly are amazing too. ;) ^_^
I love that his hoodie says "Sit Stay." XD
I don't think I even want to know what "Smear" is (Obviously some kind of beer but still :/). That imp with the broken arm is so cute and the one guy's got a Mammon shirt. ^_^
Love that the one imp woman brought her gnat dog to the party, although I wonder if it likes all the loud noise. ;)
Poor Loona with the candy filled fur. That honestly would be me at a party this crazy. ;)
Nice rainbow, although I don't think I needed to know the extra detail about it. O_O
Binging on ice cream is definitely relatable, although the fact Blitz fell asleep with it in his arms is different. ;)
Nice "Voxflix and Chill" shirt as well as the fact he is a trans male imp is great to see. ^_^<3
Love the Hellhound's phone case say "Good Girl" and Blitz's face is hilarious. ;)
Seeing the dogs in Beelzebub's magic is pretty cool, I'm not gonna lie. :)
A better shot of some of the background characters. :)
Beelzebub's form is definitely gorgeous even when she's pissed off. :)
That "No respect" shirt has to exist somewhere on Earth, doesn't it? ;)
Poor Dennis. He didn't deserve that. ;_;
Blitz sticking his tongue out is really cute and the fact you can see a love-bite scar on Alejandro is great. XD
I'm glad Loona made some new friends and maybe she'll start dating that other guy Hellhound. ;)
My heart just can't take how sad it is that Blitz is hugging himself and curling up on the couch. :(
Loona tucking him in and even patting him is just so heartwarming. <3<3<3

Lesson 25 is here! This week we solve Asmo's inner turmoil and finally find out why Barbatos hates Solomon's guts so much.
We got "eternal" for the rhythm games, too!
Tumblr media
We start where we left off on lesson 24: entering the garden among Barbatos and Solomon looking for Little D. Nº5 to help Asmo.
Barbatos starts saying he remembers visiting Solomon in the human world, and Solomon begins to show signs that he remembers something. Then he says he remembers the when, just not the what, and Barbatos just gets more pissed off.
Tumblr media
lmfao but finally, Barbatos gets to the crux of the matter: he went to visit Solomon and saw a list of all the demons Solomon had made pacts with...
And he was number eight.
That's all. That's literally the whole reason he's mad at Solomon. He's jealous and hurt due to a list. Holy shit.
Tumblr media
Solomon tries to clarify he wrote them down without any order in particular, that he wrote them just as they came to mind. Someone save him he's making it worse.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sorry Sol I love you I swear but I chose to back up Barbatos for fun
All this build-up for this. Incredible. I remember seeing people theorizing Barbatos' anger had something to do with time traveling shenanigans too. I was not expecting that. I prefer it over the feud he has with Thirteen, though, I know if it'd been about food I would've been disappointed. This is way funnier and you honestly don't see it coming ngl.
Back to the more pressing matter, Little D. Nº5 finds you, following Barbatos' indignation about being a "mediocre middle number", and without any previous warning, teleports all of you, it included, somewhere else...
That somewhere turns out to be Asmo's subsconscious, just like Mammon.
Tumblr media
Asmo's on top of a throne, with Mammon, Levi, Satan, Beel and Belphie serving him around. They don't speak, they remain quiet even in front of you and Solomon points out they look worn out and exhausted, but Asmo doesn't seem to care. However when you ask him if "is this truly what you want?" you get points with him ;; hang in there, Asmo.
For now, however, he only has eyes for you and himself. He tries to beckon you, but you can resist. If you do, you win points with Barb and Sol.
Lucifer is missing from the group, though, and Barbatos notices.
Tumblr media
Barbatos teleports both you and Solomon away to wherever Lucifer is, leaving him alone to fend Asmodeus.
You arrive in a weird dark forest, with a nice background music too.
Tumblr media
Now that would be an interesting idea to explore, but I'll tell you here and now that sadly, no, we won't :( when asking Solomon, he just says this place might be so deep in Asmo's mind, not even he knows it exists. Mostly bevause this place doesn't "fit" Asmo.
You two have to look for Lucifer, though, because he seems important to Asmo just as he was to Mammon.
Tumblr media
Yeah they do, despite all their bickering they really love their older brother.
After trekking for a bit you find a cabin in the woods, and lo and behold, Luci is there. You ask him why he's there, and he tells you he was a sorcerer that used to work under Asmo, until Asmo banished him for telling Asmo he was not beautiful, "not as you are now."
Tumblr media
He asks about Asmo, so you can tell him you've just seen him or that you're going back to see him. Lucifer simpy gives you an apple to give to Asmo, and that's all you get from that little visit. Solomon, sensing it's the key for this, takes you both back to the castle where Asmo was.
Nor Asmo nor Barbatos are in sight, though, only the brothers and Little D. However, when you ask to see Asmo, the Little D. doesn't take it very well and does a 180 on you, commanding the brothers to get you.
Tumblr media
Solomon, being our current knight in shining armor, tells you to run and go save Asmo while he covers you. We don't have a choice here, so we just run for it, leaving Solomon behind like this, probably.
Tumblr media
We finally reach Asmo, who's alone in his room. There's no sign of Barbatos anywhere.
Asmo's delighted you came to "see" him, and continues to try and make you profess your undying love for him and that he's first above anyone else. Gotta snap him out of it.
Tumblr media
We remember the whole Barbatos convo with Solomon about not being on top of the list here, too, and we use it to try and get to Asmo.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But it's not working very well...
Tumblr media
He's about to lock you up (oh boy) when the apple Lucifer gave you falls to the floor. Asmo spots it immediately, realizing it's one of Lucifer's apples, Apparently, it's one of his favourite things, sp he takes a bite... and suddenly feels very, very sleepy.
Oh no.
Tumblr media
Lucifer, always on time. Colorized.
The scene just ends there... and switches to this.
Tumblr media
In hindsight I should've seen it coming tbh.
Basically, Asmo has fallen asleep forever. Lucifer has put him to sleep, granting his wish to remain forever beautiful by never aging.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Little D. Nº5 is inconsolable, and crying out as if he were Asmodeus himself. He keeps sobbing about how he doesn't want this, and how he wants to go back to his brothers :( Barbatos and Solomon think he's mixed with Asmo's feelings, or that he's embodied Asmo himself. In any case, what he feels is what Asmo wants, and him crying is just like Asmo crying.
But here we know how Snow White goes (at least the modified children's tale version...), so we step up to save Asmo.
Tumblr media
I love the forehead option for them so much you have no idea-. I'm always surprised when they go on about love and I think I'm going to have to show romantic love towards one of them no matter what, and then I'm given a platonic option for it. I love that it's an option, even if I prefer the romantic type.
Whatever kiss you choose, it works, and you wake up back in the garden where Little D. Nº5 last teleported you. You're back with Solomon, Barbatos and the Little D, who's just snoring on the ground. It's adorable, but you have to go check on Asmo, so off we go to the House of Lamentation.
There's a bit of a commotion there, though.
If we think about the previous lesson with its chat + videocall at the end, we'll remember that all the brothers were talking about taking a little payback by drawing on Asmo's face as he slept.
Well, he's awake and yelling at everyone, so you can guess what's happening lmao
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It is said (and proven) that Asmo's even scarier than Satan when angry. Also gotta love Lucifer smoothly avoiding his part in all this mess. Big brained asshole.
However your arrival makes Asmo flip completely. He's grateful you've saved him ;u; and offers to do anything in exchange.
Tumblr media
So of course, we ask for a pact, bamboozling almost everyone else who's present. They don't think Asmo's gonna do it, but he does it in a heartbeat. WELL, TWO PACTS DOWN, I GUESS.
The end of the lesson starts, once more, with the brothers and you all enjoying breakfast together, but this time Lucifer ends up delivering a lecture that has everyone rolling their eyes and giving you pleading looks so you save them from this torture.
Asmo offers to team up with you to prank Lucifer. So you accept, obviously, because they're menaces and you can't really say no to them. Spoiled, the lot of them.
Anyways, you get to choose what prank befalls the poor man. I chose kitty speak. It was hilarious.
Tumblr media
But now he's pissed off, obviously, so you all have to book it. A lighthearted end for this lesson. There's no clear hint (that I've seen) about who's the next demon that's going to succumb to his sin, so either they're moving to a mini interlude in our pact-making or they're leaving it as a surprise.
But we still have a videocall at the end of the normal story, plus the extra lesson and the bit at the end of the hard mode, so let's get to it.
The videocall is between Barbatos, Luke and Solomon, where Solomon apologizes for summoning Barbatos away when he was with Luke back in the previous lesson (when he needed help subduing Asmodeus). Solomon offers to pay Luke back for the scare by either helping him bake again or to make him a cake himself. Luke fights for his life trying to dissuade Solomon from cooking anything at all lmao. The call isall lighthearted and adorable.
Tumblr media
Critically acclaimed.......... w-was this a ffxiv reference???? Hello?????? I mean English isn't my native language but I've never seen those two words used to talk about a living person before omg
The extra lesson takes place when Asmo wakes up in his bed after the whole ordeal, realizing how everyone's responsible for waking him up. He really wants to go to them and apologize, so he does.
Tumblr media
Except, as we already know, his face is painted, so the brothers are having a hard time holding back their laughter, and it's not until Asmo finally sees his face that all hell breaks loose and the moment is lost lmao.
Then comes my favourite, the extra scene unlocked in hard mode. It's called "Butler for a Day".
You're sitting in the garden with Asmo and Barbatos while they're just talking about Solomon.
Tumblr media
They also rip him a new one.
Tumblr media
Barbatos asks you to please not be like Solomon now that you also have pacts, and to be considerate towards your demons. Sir this isn't our first rodeo sjdfsf
Here comes the kick, though: Solomon went begging to Barbatos to forgive him, saying he'd do anything to get back on his good graces, so Barbatos made him be Diavolo's butler for a day.
Tumblr media
We actually see Solomon chasing Diavolo around, who seems to be having fun too lmao of course he would.
At least after this they should be on better terms...
And that's all for this week!
I, hm. I feel it wasn't as "deep" as Mammon's chapter, but maybe it's because they touched on Asmo's homesickness back at the beginning of Nightbringer. I liked that chapter of his a lot and how he was written there. Still, I sometimes feel they don't really know how to grasp Asmo beyond his "I want to be loved by everyone" thing. They could've delved a bit deeped in the whole "dark forest" part and how Asmo isn't always happy and probably gets tired of keeping up a smile for the sake of everyone (and himself too), but they just left it there. Maybe it's just me, that I haven't fully grasped everything in this chapter, but it's how I feel after finishing this one. I did like the start of Asmo's predicament, though, in lesson 24, with Solomon having to step in and actually fight him to stop him. The resolution doesn't feel as fulfilling as Mammon's did, and it makes me a bit sad for Asmo.
Asmo's really close with Lucifer, too. I don't know, I feel there's wasted potential ;;
Since there's no hint for who's next, I guess we can only wait...
Stay safe and don't forget to stretch <3
Edit: WELL LESSON 26 IS OUT SO WE KNOW WHO'S NEXT

The First Pact
Paring: Mammon x GN!MC.
Summary: Levi's plan felt a little... what's the word? Scummy. And MC knows what it's like to feel cornered, to feel like the demons are closing in on you just for being yourself. So if they were getting this pact, it'd be on their terms.
Warnings: MC is gender-neutral and AFAB; breasts are mentioned; there is slight gore; demonic aggression; human lives are threatened; Levi lets a little of his pervy side out.
“It’d make him?” the human asked, hand curling just a little bit tighter around the plastic card in their hand. Something about that concept just… didn’t sit well with them. “What exactly does that mean?”
“Exactly what it sounds like,” Leviathan exclaimed, practically vibrating in his smug ‘checkmate’ status over his brother. “No matter how much he might wish to resist, he’d be forced to follow his master’s orders. He’d be strung along like a puppet while gathering all the money he owes me. Oh man, this is going to be fantastic!”
MC watched the elder demon before them, supposedly one of the strongest beings in this realm, and watched the resignation bleed into blue eyes. They watched as the line of his shoulders tightened, the tension of waiting for the guillotine to drop. They watched as that same tight line of his shoulders sagged, the heavy weight of anxiety and reservation pulling him down.
Leviathan continued to daydream and ramble, a background noise of exploitation of their pact. A pact that they already feel a territorial defense of, possessiveness of a non-existent claim curling around their heart. They don't want to analyze that, don’t want to introspect on themself, not with Leviathan’s own possessive lilt hanging in the air. So they analyze the fuming demon before them, still supplicating himself on his knees. MC tracks the way blue eyes steadily darken, hardening to sapphires, gold flecks vanishing. MC tracks his own stare, the way he hasn’t taken his eyes off the card in their hands since he spotted it. How even when pleading to Leviathan he never looked away, reminding them of a bird of prey honed in on its next meal. MC tracks how energy is humming in the room, manifesting in twitches and fidgets along his arms, fingers itching to possess, to claim, to hoard.
They don't even realize they've drawn ‘Goldie’ closer until his eyes snap up to meet their own and they find themself drowning in molten gold.
“Why are you letting him manipulate you like this,” the white-haired man growled. The consonants and vowels of his words tumbled past his lips, grating along his throat and his teeth before they fell on their ears. His voice echoed with aggression and disdain, clearly vexed by the events of the evening. Assumedly vexed by them. Yet, he did not take out that hostility on them, despite the ease he could have. It’s not like Leviathan would have stopped him, it’s not like they could’ve stopped him, it’s not like anyone would really mourn them, it’s not like anyone truly thought they'd survive the first week of this fucked up experiment.
And yet, and yet… all Mammon did was glare at them with those glinting, golden eyes.
“You’re the Avatar of Greed, right?” MC asked slowly. They were shifting, glacially, imperceptibly closer to Mammon. It was almost magnetic, his pull, their drawl. There was a subtle desire in the back of their mind that was urging them to continue their analysis just that extra one, two, five inches closer to the primordial being. But they weren't the only one being drawn into an orbit. With every syllable that drips like honey from their lips, there is another shift from the elder demon, another centimeter bringing him closer to the human. MC dimly registers somewhere in the recesses of their head that the draw to him is probably a predatory instinct on his part. They're vaguely aware enough of it enough to question what his excuse is for being drawn to them.
His lips curl in a snarl, something almost defensive tainting the corners of his lips and dripping from his canines. “Yeah, that’s me, the Great Mammon, the Avatar of Greed.”
“Then money’s your thing, right? Excessive material goods, shiny new toys, collecting and hoarding for the sake of just having,” their voice is light and airy, open curiosity apparent in the cadence of their lilting accent. They have captured both of the demons' attention now, Leviathan narrowing his eyes on their retreating figure as they continue their line of questioning. “A never-ending craving, that’s your whole shtick?”
MC finds themself some measly feet away from the older Avatar. Well within striking distance (they are aware that the whole kitchen is ‘striking distance’ for both of them).
“What do you want, human?” The words are poisonous, bright and flashy venom he makes no attempt to disguise. Instinctively, they know their body recognizes a threat and knows their heart is racing as it pumps adrenaline through their system. But they've always been stubborn, and as much as their body wants to survive, they want to make something clear. The need to demonstrate something intrinsic about themself is overwhelming. And if one of the demons in the room kills them because of this, at least they went out on their terms.
They hold the card out to Mammon.
Nobody reaches for it.
So they extend their arm the slightest bit farther, loosening their grip just the slightest bit more. “Here. No strings, no pact necessary.”
The reaction is explosive. Mammon snatches the card from their hand, moving so quickly they are barely able to comprehend the motion. Leviathan screeches, hands slamming the island between him and the human. His form flickers, fraying at the edges as indignation physically coalesces around him. His vitriolic, vermillion eyes were snapping between them and his brother, assessing, calculating, strategizing. They settle on the human.
“What do you think you’re doing?” His voice faintly echoes, like the subtle reverb of waves crashing in a seaside cavern. The words crawl out of a mouth with teeth a little too long to pass as human anymore. It’s intimidating.
MC stares down Leviathan, shoulders rolled back and their chin lifted in proud defiance. It is the same way they stared down that demon that was intent on harassing them on the walk to the dorm this afternoon, thinking he’d found an easy target without a brother by their side. It is the same way they stared down their professor in their Demonology 101 class, attempting to make an example of humanity’s inferiority using them. It is the same way they stared down motherfucking Lucifer Morningstar himself, daring to tell him ‘no’ a mere hour into their new life in the Devildom.
Leviathan might be intimidating, but they have a fucking point to prove.
“I’m not going to manipulate someone into forming a pact with me. End of.”
“You think you have a choice?” His eyes have slitted, claws gouging the countertop. “You think a disgusting normie gets to make decisions? You don’t know your place. When I say ‘fetch’, you fetch. When I say ‘give me that’, you fork it over. When I say ‘wear a maid costume’, you say ‘yes, Master’. When I say ‘drown’, you choke on seawater. And when I tell you to make a pact with Mammon, you make the fucking pact.”
His shadow curls throughout the room, snaking its way around their own. His voice had deepened, the echoing quality magnifying, tidal waves beating against a cliffside. His voice slithered into their mind, coiling around their thoughts and dragging them down. And yet, and yet…
“Get used to disappointment Leviathan,” MC responds. Calm, collected, unfazed.
The Avatar of Envy lunges.
A hand grabs their wrist, nails pricking at the sensitive skin like talons snagging on wool, and the world blurs as they are pulled, yanked, catapulted into a hard chest. A crashing, snarling, howling sound comes from the place they just stood. A hand is placed on their sternum, steadying them along with the arm wrapped so tightly around their waist. MC opens their mouth, ready to protest, to demand, to bite an explanation out of the demon holding them, but that is not what happens.
What happens is MC bites their own tongue, blood pooling, the coppery taste is invasive on their taste buds. Their jaw seizes, clamping down the scream building up. They have too much survival instinct, too much common sense, too much pride. Too much of everything coursing through them to allow themself to show fear in the face of the demon whose fingers have curled into their flesh. His nails - no, his talons - pierce their skin enough to bleed. The blood drips down them, spilling from their wound and from their mouth, painting their torso with it. MC's eyes are wide and panicked, locked on Mammon’s that burn brighter with every rumbling growl that slips past his lips.
Soon it is not just his eyes burning, something shiny catching in their peripheral. They try to look, try to turn their gaze onto something new, but are unable to pull away from the gold pooling behind strands of white hair. Their chest is still bleeding around his claws, but what once was dark, mesmerizing crimson is becoming viscous precious metal. It chugs through their veins, taking time to reach every cell, every atom of their mortal flesh with its molten heat.
Right when they think they’ll have to swallow their pride and whimper a plea of mercy, the gold in their veins rapidly pulls back, collecting and pooling in their left pectoral. Shapes paint themselves in a frenzy in the area directly above their heart, spanning from the bottom of their breast to their collarbone, from their sternum to their underarm. They can not understand them, can not even look at them trapped as they are in the second-eldest’s stare, but they know the gold tattooing itself into their skin, into their muscles and sinew, into their very soul. They know the sigils spell out a claim for every living thing in all the realms that they belong to the Avatar of Greed himself.
Finally, Mammon releases them, hand retracting after a soft pat over the area he’d been carving himself into, eyes drifting down their frame to take in the mark for himself. MC takes a moment to breathe, to recalibrate, to reassess the situation. They notice that they are pressed up against the wall, Mammon’s lanky frame crowding them (shielding them). With his attention diverted, they are able to see Leviathan hovering in the wake of his destruction, considerably calmer but still glaring at them. Though his obvious annoyance is not enough to stop him from trying to see around his brother to see the pact mark for himself.
Speaking of, MC finally has the wherewithal to take a look at the damage done to them, softly gasping at what they see. First, where they know there should be deep gashes from Mammon’s attack on their chest, they find wounds stitching themselves back together, not even leaving behind a scar. Second, the glittering shapes inked into their skin are captivating. The mark is massive, with symbols and glyphs and demonic lettering radiating out from a central focal point. With how low that focal point is in the overarching design of the mark (directly in front of their heart), the overall design reminds them of a rising sun. Mammon is tracing a specific line of letters near the center, and it is absolutely fascinating how there is no raised or irritated skin. It’s almost like a birthmark, an intrinsic part of themself that has always been there, despite its recent origins.
Leviathan’s soul-escaping screech causes them both to finally pull away from their little bubble. Mammon is instantly crowding them again, pressing them behind him as his hackles rise. MC’s guard is up as well, wiggling their way to the white-haired demon’s side so they can assess any threats for themself. They place a reassuring hand on Mammon’s arm, and something flares up deep within their soul in response.
Leviathan goes even redder once he can fully see MC, slamming his hands over his eyes and dropping into a crouch, curling in on himself until he closer resembles a steaming ball more than an ancient cosmic entity. They cut a glance to Mammon, who has marginally relaxed by now and offers them a classic ‘I’ve got no clue’ shrug. They do not have to wait long for Leviathan to inform them of what exactly was wrong.
“PUT YOUR 3D TIT AWAY!”
MC blinks. They look at Mammon. Mammon blinks. They both look down at MC's chest. Sure as shit, their already baggy and loose shirt was yanked down far enough on their left side that their whole left boob was just… out. One of them must have moved the shirt aside to investigate the mark better. They look back at Mammon. Mammon begins blushing so hard they can feel the heat simmering off of him from here.
Casually, MC fixes their shirt.
“Thanks, by the way”. They were addressing Mammon specifically, but they spoke to the room at large, considering both of the high and mighty demons had turned into blushing maidens and were studiously avoiding looking in their direction. The same powerful demons, mind you, that were just willing to show off their dark prowess and skills to intimidate the human in the room not even thirty or so minutes ago. Yeah, those demons. They continued despite no visual acknowledgment. “You absolutely did not have to do that, but I appreciate it nonetheless.”
Mammon glanced at them, mustering up some of his usual bravado. “Yeah, well, you better be grateful, human. Not every day the Great Mammon deems a mortal worthy of his pact.”
“You made a pact with a witch two months ago for 2,000 grimm.”
“OI!”
The brothers began fighting, wrestling with the intent to pester, not harm, and MC watched. A fond smile found its way onto their face, a warmth suffusing through their system at the chaos of the kitchen. Absent-mindedly, they rubbed their new mark, thinking over the events that just transpired.
What Leviathan had just said, about the witch, something about it stuck with them. Sure, it was a comment meant to showcase what Mammon is willing to sell his pact for, and how frequently those exchanges seem to happen. But… why form a pact with them then? He didn’t take anything from them, they were pretty sure they would feel a claim on their very soul, and it still felt like it belonged to themself. Hmmm, puzzling no doubt, but they were content to let the man keep his secrets.
Be grateful, human.
That’s an order from their demon they think they can follow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A never-ending craving, that’s your whole schtick?
No strings, no pact necessary.
I’m not going to manipulate someone into forming a pact with me. End of.
Hours later, those words are still rattling around in his head. It was damn annoying, constantly thinking about what happened in the House of Lamentation kitchen last night. He didn’t want to think about it, didn’t want to think about how their words had dripped like honey through his veins, didn’t want to think about how something deep in him snarled at the idea of Levi hurting them, didn’t want to think about how his soul felt like it settled when his power melted their blood.
If he had thought about it in the moment, he could have argued away his brothers’ taunts at the breakfast table this morning. For every claim of ‘now you’re really stuck with them,’ he’d argue that he could do his job of babysitter better. And he could, hell with the pact he could do his job (or punishment depending on who’s asking) more efficiently through the pact. He’s supposed to protect them, and now he can locate them at a moment’s notice with just a little tug on the ephemeral string tying them together. Honestly, Lucifer should be praising him for taking this assignment so seriously.
He didn’t want to think about how he hadn’t been thinking about it in the moment. He didn’t want to think about how he was running on instinct when he sank his claws into their flesh and began the spell that bound them to him and him to them. He didn’t want to think about how he just gave away his pact, without taking a single thing from them in exchange.
“MC, sweetie, you’re going to rub your skin raw if you keep at it,” Asmo said, jolting both the human and demon out of their thoughts. Mammon glanced over and pointedly ignored the flush building on his face. It’s not like seeing them tracing the letters spelling out his name did anything for him.
He isn’t going to think about the voice in the back of his head purring at the sight. He isn’t going to think about how his sin curls around the pact bound in his soul and whispers ‘mine’.
No, for now, Mammon is just going to take his human by the hand and drag them to R.A.D. He’ll save all that thinking for later.

It happened a while ago, but me and a friend saw the cutest things at some random store. That's the inspiration behind this post.
mc gifts the brothers an alpaca plushie
-> brothers x mc
mc's gender is not mentioned, not proof read
content warnings: mild self-deprecation and a fish judging you
-----
Lucifer
he was very confused why you would give him a cute stuffed animal randomly on a tuesday afternoon
he's the embodiment of pride itself, he doesn't need a toy, regardless of that thought, he still thanked you for the gift
and turns out, the plushie does calm mr avatar of pride down after signing mountains of paperwork, it reminds him of you
Mammon
'...ya really think the great mammon needs this? uh, wait, no don't walk away! thanks, I mean-' mammon said, while his face felt warm and he kept avoiding your eyes
his awkward monologue went on for a good 15 minutes before he left with the alpaca plushie under his arm
mammon will also be prepared to fight anyone who comes a little too close to the plushie
Leviathan
congratulations! you broke leviathan
he actually nearly cries while thanking you, telling you how he isn't worthy of such kindness
you try to help him calm down a bit while henry 2.0 is judging both you and his owner
when levi is alone, he creates little cosplay costumes of hana ruri and tsl characters for the little alpaca plushie
Satan
'oh? a gift from you? thanks, mc'
satan might not get why you would gift him something so seemingly unlike him, but he likes the thought you put into it
the plushie actually motivates him to tidy a corner of his room up a bit, so it has a nice place to stay instead of being buried in a ton of books
Asmodeus
asmo loses it because of how cute the alpaca is, he clings to you while thanking you and declaring his undying love for you
the plushie becomes an important decoration item, if you were to watch one of his livestreams, you'd always be able to see it somewhere in the background
sometimes, when asmo is sad or frustrated, he'll take a look at the stuffed animal to calm down
Beelzebub
beel loves the fact you got him a little gift, he will actually give you something in return
and now, he carries the plushie with him wherever he can
that also means he takes it to his games, for good luck and support, he even places it on a separate chair
he will be very upset if something were to happen to it
Belphegor
he acts like he doesn't care for it at first, but thanks you either way
little do you know belphie sleeps with the plushie every night, one time beel even texted you a picture of the sight
he always holds it close to himself during sleep because one time it fell on the floor, and when belphie looked at it, and the plushie's eyes stared right at him, he felt horrible

Just downloaded the new Obey Me app and I’m going to be giving it my review and opinion!
I never finished the first game, got around to season 2 some time after the MC came back from the human world and then my phone ran out of memory for the game lol. It kept lagging so much and sometimes it would just crash right away so I gave up an uninstalled it from my old phone 🥲
But I did get hundreds of followers in my old tumblr account because of Obey Me and honestly it was such a fun game at the time. I had fun interacting with other fans of the fandom and gush over our love for the demon brothers. I wasn’t too keen on the MC’s origin story so I’m just gonna… ignore it 😅
For those who don’t know, I am working on the design for my online persona for the past week now who is an angel, but now after playing OMN a bit it’s been giving me the itch to give her a sort of alter ego or alternative versions of herself. So I’m planning on the works of her human form (which I guess will represent me in the old Obey Me game) and her demon form which will represent me in Nightbringer. I’ll post it here when I’m done if anyone’s interested because for sure I’m gonna start drawing art for Obey Me again after this.
Anyway I digress—
Tumblr media
I really like the new features of the DDD app in Nightbringer. We have a new rhythm game that I don’t really understand yet how to time my attacks.. and we have like a parody of the Marauder’s Map from Harry Potter?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They also have 3D models for the boys now! I love watching the interactions between the brothers with this, plus it’s great for the video call feature in the Wanderer’s Whereabouts because it seems a bit more realistic than just the audio calls we used to get. The 3D models are very expressive and the animation seems smooth. The backgrounds are being used well here from the old version of the game.
Tumblr media
And I think it’s cute that we can see the brothers voice their thoughts when we gift them a sheep stuffed toy. We’re essentially spying on them or “babysitting” as the brothers sees it. Since we are their attendant now in this game, ordered by Diavolo, I guess it makes.. sense? Humans have like a CCTV in their homes to keep an eye on things when they’re not around so I think that’s what the WW is meant to be as an app. It’s not bad of a feature and I enjoy seeing more of the animations of the brothers being put to use.
Tumblr media
Also can we please take a moment for this scene of Mammon wondering why he cares about this toy so much that resembles his MC (AKA us)?! 😭
Tumblr media
Bro doesn’t know us because of the plot line of the game being the MC traveling back in time (I don’t really know why yet aside from the premise of a certain demon granting our wish of taking us to somewhere where we will be happy AKA to reunite with the 7 brothers in the Devildom)
You will probably need to play the first game to understand what’s going on. Or at least to understand our connection to the characters of the game from the future timeline.
Personally I think the new chibi art of the game is stellar! Super cute! The designs on the cards are great too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The story seems interesting and I’m getting really hooked since we have a lot of new apps on the DDD to keep me from being bored. I felt like the affection raise in the first game seemed useless but it was explained to me that affection level allows you to get bonus stuff like Devilgram posts or extra calls, so yeah that’s cool to know now.
I think my only complaint is the rhythm game mechanics. I don’t really get how it works or I do and the timing is off? I don’t know if I’m the only one who has this problem or what, but I’m annoyed that I keep missing so much like wtf. My scores in the first game were way better than this 😭 Every time I tap when the item is on the line it just doesn’t work so I don’t know what I’m doing wrong lmao
I’ll continue playing the game but so far I want to give it a 7.5/10 ⭐️ I will be posting more of this game soon.
