Tumblr media
This man takes the responsibility of baking you a cake himself. Thankfully, he burns it while thinking about how lonely you must have felt on not getting a cake. How long has it been since he was born? He has no clue. All those lonely years with nobody to remind him of his birthday and with time, he has forgotten the exact date.
It doesn't really matter.
Now he has someone to hold the knife with when he cuts a cake. He has someone who will wish him on his birthday even if he doesn't remember it. He has someone special - you.
A smile tugs at his lips when he thinks about his other friends at Purgatory Hall. Everyone has made his life a lot warmer.
Well, he'll just get you cake from the human world. It'll be special and remind you of home. He knows just the place!
Tumblr media
On hearing a knock on your door, you open it only to be suprised by Solomon. Party poppers burst and bright light flashes at your face menacingly.
"Ough." You stumble back a few steps. A strong arm wraps around your waist to prevent a fall.
"Surprise! Surprise! A very happy birthday!"
"What?" You say, puzzled.
"Surprise! Surprise! A very happy birthday!" The automatic voice chimes. You can't pinpoint the where it's coming from. The voice surrounds you from every direction.
His laughter floats into the room.
"Oh [Name], you should have seen your face. You looked like you had seen a ghost. Anyway. Happy birthday to you. Here's the cake. Make a wish."
He quickly gets you seated im a chair and puts a party hat on your head. Before you can blink, he is singing "Happy birthday to you" with the utmost delight. It's adorable to see him act like a child.
"The cake...", you frown. "It looks like our faces, Solomon. And are we kissing?!"
"Wonderful, isn't it?" He smiles sweetly.
"I can see the little smirk on your face," you carefully scan the expression drawn on the cake, "Not very subtle."
"Oh come now [Name]. Are you mad because the cake faces are kissing? You can kiss me. Any time. I will show you how I actually smirk. What do you say?"
The sound of sudden tapping on the front door interrupts you.
"Who can it be at midnight? I mean I expect it's not late late in the Devildom but still."
"That must be the brothers," Solomon replies with a weary sigh. "I wanted to be the first person to wish you so I put a spell around Cocytus Hall that blocks any calls from outside. The brothers must have been trying your DDD for a long time hahahahaha. I expected to have a little more time alone with you to be honest. They really care about you to go to these lengths."
He moves closer and holds your hand gently.
"But that can wait. Why don't you make a wish for now?"
The knocking stops followed by a loud blast but you maintain eye contact with the mischievous sorcerer.
A distant voice rings angrily in your ears.
"SOLOMON! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO [NAME]?"

Tumblr media
LUCIFER
“What?” His eyes widen in disbelief.
“Yeah... so we would all put money together to buy a cake for my other friends but since my birthday fell during the summer vacation, I never really cut any cake with my friends.”
He declares an emergency family meeting where he orders Mammon and Asmodeus to choose a venue for a party, Leviathan to decide the food menu, and Satan, Beelzebub and Belphegor to look after the decorations. He personally hires one of the best pâtissiers in the Devildom to make a cake especially for your party. It will be a private affair with only the brothers attending.
Lucifer will get you another cake to cut in private later but first you must get a taste of celebrating with close friends who are also akin to your family.
When you see the cake, you are rendered speechless. It has a tier for every year of your age. Even if your time is fleeting, every second that has passed and is yet to grace you matters. You matter and they will do their best to remind you of it.
MAMMON
“What would ya say?!”
He is royally pissed at your friends. It's good that you have him in your life now. The Great Mammon will make everything right.
“O-Oi human! Come to my room after classes today.”
“Mammon? I thought you had to stay back for detention.”
“Well don't think about those stupid details, would ya?”
You sigh and accept the invitation. There's no saving one who doesn't want to be saved.
When you enter his room, you know something is off. It has nothing to do with the room itself. It's his nervousness that makes you suspicious.
“Mammon, are you okay?”
“I just- Close your eyes!”
“What? What's this all of a sudden?”
“Trust me and close your eyes!”
“Okay okay!”
You follow his instructions, only to be met with a shy plea immediately as he scurries across the room.
“Open your eyes now... Surprise!”
The cake he gets you is the colour of molten gold and looks like a Grimm from the top.
“Oh my Diavolo, Mammon! It's such a sweet gesture.”
“I couldn't just let my servant go without cutting a cake! What kinda master wo-would I be otherwise, huh?” He manages to say with blushing cheeks.
He can hardly look at you so you wrap your arms around him and kiss his cheeks in gratitude. He is ready to explode. Atleast he will explode as a happy demon.
LEVIATHAN
“Ehhh? EHHHH?! You?! Bu-But But you are so amazing and sweet! How can those normies ever forget about you?! It’s not as if you are a pathetic gross otaku li-like me?!”
He takes some time to process the information and feels sad about it. Even he cannot relate to you because his brothers had never let him celebrate a birthday without throwing a surprise party.
It has always been easy to plan for him because he hardly left his room and so the brothers held their secret meetings without a worry. Similarly, it was child’s play for him to plan a small party for you from the comfort of his room.  
Your DDD vibrates because of a message from Leviathan.
“Can you come to my room rn? I have something to show you.”
The moment the door opens, the sound of party crackers catches you off guard and before you know it, you are covered in party streamer.
“SURPRISE!”
You blink to find a cake shaped like a gaming controller with "Player 2" written on it in a cute style.
Levi has arranged some of his figurines and Henry’s fish tank to surround the cake. They have a small party hat on top of their heads. Henry swims around happily as if to show off in front of you.
SATAN
He shuts his book in rage.
“The audacity! How could they?” He mumbles to himself when he is alone.
He is only too well acquainted with the feeling of being excluded. It hurts. It hurts when he doesn’t supress his feelings well and the wrath that comes with it is not sweet either.
He feels sad and extremely offended on your behalf but he also acknowledges that his feelings won’t amount to a lot if he doesn’t act on it.
He decides on a small, intimate celebration with the two of you and some of your feline companions.
He gets you a cake in your favourite flavour, carefully listing your allergies, likes and dislikes. He ditches his first idea of getting one that looks like the head of a cake. It would be sacrilege to eat it!
The cats seem to understand the mood because they mewl and Satan sings when you cut the cake. He is awkward while singing so don’t let it get out of his room! The smile on your face compensates his embarrassment.

« a/n - the events occur in obey me nightbringer. the personalities differ from that of swd om. so it may be a spoiler for the story »
Tumblr media
SIMEON
He can understand why you would want that. Memories are indeed powerful and you must make a lot of it while you still have time. Otherwise regret and longing may take you hostage.
Now move closer to him and smile brightly. He doesn't know how to use a DDD so you will have to click the selfie yourself.
His bright aura almost blinds you but the expression on his face looks a little sad. Maybe the incident is a reminder of all the pictures he wish he had taken...
LEVIATHAN
E-Eh? No way! He would rather hide in his room than click a picture! It's already bad enough that he has to show his face in his new form but to keep a picture, some evidence so that others can find it and laugh at him? No way!
With that, he storms to his room and closes the door. No matter how many promises you make to respect his wishes and put the camera away, he doesn't come out. Demons already stare at him curiously, making him uncomfortable and he can swear that some of them click pictures of the brothers in secret. It's all wrong. He is scared, just so disconcerted. All he wants to do is hide and forget the way he looks.
When he's ready, he comes out voluntarily and apologises to you. J-Just remember that no pictures for now!
SATAN
HUH? He's quick to rage without even listening to your question. What makes you think you can get all chummy with him? Keep the damned device away and don't come any closer.
He doesn't actually attack you or make any movement. That is as peaceful as it can get with Satan and you understand that so you leave with a little hope.
When he's ready to click pictures, he's very awkward about it. You would have to tell him where to stand and where to look. Flashes can be a trigger so warn him. He would hate to feel like he has been made a fool of. After having read about cute pictures together - in order to understand how people worked - the idea appeals to him. Still he doesn't know how to pose or express himself properly so he ends up with a scowl or a grave look.
SOLOMON
Of course! With a smile, he inches closer to you and leans in. As two human beings living together, such moments are a certainty and he's enjoying it to the fullest. He loves making memories with you and with the brothers out of the picture for the time being, he is sure to make the most of it and try to get closer to you.
"Why don't you go ahead and put it on your story, [Name]?" he says casually. "Maybe put a cute caption? Hahah. Don't look at me like that. I'm only kidding. Unless..."
Wait till you two return back to the present. He wishes to show these pictures to everyone and leave them with quite some thoughts.

I was annoyed about getting tangled in a trap when a very angry Lord Satan appeared in his demon form, screaming, "THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR LUCIFER! WHO MESSED IT UP?"
A sleepy Lord Belphegor followed behind immediately, muttering, "Did it work...?"
And the worst part? I was stuck to that place! Must have been the trap!
I could see my life flashing before my eyes as I counted the seconds before my death at the hands of the Avatar of Wrath.
Thankfully, Lord Lucifer appeared and I escaped before Lord Satan could see my face. Now I live in constant terror of shadows and green nails.
Hey everyone, new game:

SIMEON
Simeon was so calm, so composed, so angelic that it was easy to forget that he could get mad. It was easy to forget that his primary sin was wrath.
You couldn't even remember the reason his serene features contorted in rage. The surprise was too great to bear, the fear too consuming to think straight. When one who is a source of constant comfort, one who has always been the one to keep a cool head in most situations lose their temper, it is dreadful. Your brain could hardly imagine him getting angry than it could process that he would direct his anger at you. You, who he had always considered so important, so dear. You, who he had often asked to be with him no matter what.
When Luke walked in, he found you crying and trying to get as far away from Simeon as was physically possible. It upset him and the older angel was at a loss about what to do. So he left.
Angels aren't perfect creatures. In fact, it may as well be this pressure, this false idea that makes it difficult for them to portray their true feelings. So it never pours without a heavy downfall, drowning the ones who believed that they knew the angel well.
However, one aspect of Simeon stayed as true as the eternal darkness of the Devildom. He came to knock on your door after he messed up, and not without your favourite snacks and a handkerchief, because even if he was not perfect, he genuinely cared about you.
MEPHISTOPHELES
Mephisto had been acting cross with you for a while or so you estimated from his behavior. It was not difficult to guess the reason of his silence, or the unnecessary avoiding of the eyes as he busied himself in other activities. He could be exactly like the children he loved at times. That didn't deter you from approaching him because these were a part of life and you had signed up for not only the good times but also the bad ones.
The confrontation ended in disaster and you leaving with tears that he desperately wanted to dry. It was not you. It could not be you! He would have talked to you if he was upset with you!
He was just... A hand flew to his temple. He was so burdened by his duties that he had no time to breathe. He knew at once that the irritation targeted at you was unjustified. When you appeared at his door with freshly baked cookies, he shouldn't have been so mad that he raised his voice at you. He wasn't even annoyed with you. The meeting he had just come out of had ended in a disagreement and he couldn't help but still think of possible snide remarks he could have made. It was infuriating to think about it. Obviously, he couldn't have verbally fought with them since that would be beneath him but a demon was allowed to dream!
Nothing truly validates the course he took while communicating. It should have been straightforward without inflicting pain. Telling you the reason without being a brat. Why should he hide anything from you?
That, however, did not matter. You were innocent in the incident and he hurt you. And now his chest felt tight, it was difficult to breathe and he felt more frustrated about everything, but mostly with himself.
Despite how he proudly rants about demons and their ways, he becomes an example of a gentleman when apologising to you. Ready with a bouquet of flowers and charming, sincere words, he clearly stated the reasons for his bad mood and took responsibility for his actions. His eyes are sad and looks down from time to time. He would understand if you wouldn't talk to him anymore but believe him when he said that he didn't mean it.
He doesn't want to lose you, you know? What he wishes would disappear are your tears and pain.

hi! i’d love to join your event!<3
my hobbies are baking, reading, cooking & making stuff like jewelry!
i like: quiet places, cats, jellyfish, tea, honey, sweet perfume, sweets, food, horror movies, watching movies, going out sometimes, amusement parks, buying clothes
my dislikes: rude people, spiders, loud noises, annoying things, avacado
my personality: kind, shy, introvert but once you warm up to me i talk more, forgetful, comfort people a lot
my love language: physical such as cuddles, holding hands etc. , giving stuff, baking for them
my clothing style is mostly baggy pants with tank tops, sometimes skirts with fluffy jackets!
sorry for being so late TvT i was kinda burnt out back then. enjoy~
*drumroll* i match you with
simeon
if you are interested, he would like to indulge in his interests with you. coming up with ideas together for stories and baking with you feels more relaxing than when he is alone. he likes to ask for your thoughts on his writing, enjoying the way your eyes fly across the pages. cooking together and surprising luke with the food makes for such a beautiful memory, don't you think? then running away when solomon insists on cooking for the "happy couple" is a joke that only you two can share.
wow! you can make jewelery? every piece that you show him makes him imagine you wearing it. his face breaks into a smile wondering how anybody can look good in everything.
the roads of the devildom seemed so dark and gloomy when he first arrived but now that he gets to keep your company, he can actually appreciate the fresh air that seems to push him closer to you. the main interest is not the amusument park or wherever you want to go that day. it's you and your fingers that gently brush against him that makes him look forward to more plans like that.
simeon thinks that your kindness is a breath of fresh wind. he finds your shy and introverted nature adorable. he doesn't mind being your guide in uncomfortable situations just like you are a constant comfort to him. he can't stop thinking about you once you open up. the warmth of your voice, the way you comfort others, everything about your aura is so angelic that he could witness it all day. how did he get lucky enough to meet you?
simeon likes to knit for other anges sometimes and now that he has seen you buy clothes for a while and knows your taste, he tries to make matching scarfs f9r the two of you.
he has made a mental note of all the things that you dislike. so he remembers to never buy avocado whenever you are coming over.
simeon never expected to fall in love. that was never the point of his creation. not until the day his path crossed with yours. and it's all so new, so confusing ulyet exciting. his heart wants something but his mind can't make up if he can ask you of it. so when you tell him that you like cuddling, he couldn't be happier. he has wanted to hold hands and snuggle up to you for too long to remember.
horror movies, you say? if you are afraid, you can always hold his hand. and if you are not afraid, may he hold yours...? you know, because even if it's embarrassing, he can get afraid... don't tell luke (because luke won't believe this story)

❝ soulmates ❞
Tumblr media
notes -> this is my piece for leviathan's birthday collaboration 2023. the prompt is 'soulmates'
contains tw -> mentions of reader's death, topics of reincarnation, mentions of death of animals, angst with a happy ending
leviathan x gender neutral reader
the art piece drawn by the very talented @thedevioussmirk can be found on their tumblr and instagram
Tumblr media
Levi didn't know that happiness like that existed, that he could feel so comfortable in another’s presence, that he could gather the courage to hold their hand gently and tell them about his life willingly. Levi found it all, and he was grateful that he found peace in one person.
However, peace was a fragile state and it didn't last long. His euphoria shattered soon. Your time was up before he could ask you to spend the rest of your life with him. He didn't know what he regretted more — the fights that had shaken both your worlds, or the times he thought he hadn’t been there for you, or the sinking feeling that he couldn’t give you all the happy memories he had planned to.
He knew about your mortality but his fear had paralysed his mind into denial. You were gone before he could accept that he would be alone once again.
Still, he kept his gloomy feelings in check. What was the point? He knew this would happen. He knew, he knew! Who should he curse? What should he place the blame on if not his own naivete?
With a face as stern as the oceans that he ruled, he entered your room but his eyes were dry as a desert. He finally broke down in tears at the sight of your dead fish. How cruel of you to not leave behind the one friend you shared in common!
༺☆༻
"You know he swims with more vigour when you come to visit me," he could hear your voice in his mind as he pictured you glancing at your energetic pet. "I think he likes you!"
"Eh? Eh?! So-Someone li-li-likes me?!" he used to blush with joy.
"Yes, Levi," you would smile sweetly, "I think he approves of our love."
༺☆༻
The love still tugged at his heart like a wounded bird wanting to stay still. That was what made it so difficult. Even when the person left, the memories stayed, and he didn't know if those were meant to please him or torment him for the remainder of his days.
He shut himself in his room and refused to talk to anyone, only fulfilling his responsibilities for which he believed he was 'created'. Was there any other point of life if not to satisfy the authorities?
How he destroyed his mind in his own time was a matter for him alone.
༺☆༻
It was on one such mission assigned to him that he came across a human who resembled you. They were the splitting image of how he remembered you as.
No words of encouragement could urge him to approach them. Was he not betraying your memory by talking to this new person? Could it not be a twisted trap? In all honesty, he was scared; scared that grief was making him hallucinate and the moment he tried to approach them, they would vanish. Wasn’t it better for them to exist and live than be tarnished by his company?
Despite the noble thoughts that plagued his mind, they always had his presence around. He stalked their every move during his free time. He could not let them come to harm, not on his watch.
His face softened when he saw them buy a pet snake. Maybe he could have one too. That was how he met his beloved Henry, the first one of his pets, the one who he would eventually lose. His new pet snake was a constant source of comfort for him, just as tracking their every move was.
Days were passing pleasantly. One could say too pleasantly.
He had made himself believe that someday soon he would muster the courage to go talk to them. If everything worked out well, they might become friends. Henry would get a snake bestie too!
Alas! That life was too good to last!
He noticed their snake looking sick before them. He felt a sense of foreboding. It was deja vu.
No, no, no, no, no! He had to make sure that it was fine. When he tried approaching the snake, it hissed and slithered away in the sand, away from his reach, as if moving in rhythm with death. Some place nearby, they didn’t see how a reaper pulled them close in a cold embrace.
This time, Levi didn’t restrain himself, howling and shaking with sorrow as he held their lifeless body in his arms. It wasn’t even you, so why did he feel so broken?
He didn’t even know them! Not really.
But he knew the moment he finally touched them. He could feel the warmth of your soul slowly disappearing from the person he held in his arms.
༺☆༻
The next time Levi found you — or as he now realised, your reincarnate — he tried to keep his distance… and failed. His failure cost him another heartache as he saw you dead, the corpse of your pet lying nearby.
It happened so many times — the pattern following, a dead pet at your heels — that he feared stepping outside his room. If he held your dead body one more time in his arms, he felt sure that he would go mad. He dreaded that face that had once made his heart feel like liquid. So, without any explanation to any of his brothers, he locked himself up in his room with his games, anime, manga and whatever could distract him from the pain he had brought upon himself.
At least Ruri-chan and Azuki-tan weren’t as cruel as you! They wouldn’t leave him alone.
༺☆༻
A long time had passed before he faced a new change in his life. He had grown so accustomed to his hermit existence that it annoyed him, but Lord Diavolo’s orders needed to be followed. His duty was important, since it kept him out of trouble with Lucifer and paid for his moe moe kyun adorable figurines of his waifus and husbandos!
Other than that, the exchange programme didn’t concern him. Human beings didn’t concern him anymore. He wanted to stay in his room, burdened with shame and helplessness, doing his best to forget and forgive a fact that was beyond his control anyway.
༺☆༻
He was obliged to have dinner with his family that night. Apparently Lucifer wanted all of his brothers to meet the exchange student. Levi grunted but paused his game and made his way to the dining room, slouched and grumpy.
“Why does Lucifer have to do this? Does he even know how difficult it is to get to the last level?! OFC he doesn’t LOLOLOL that normie could never-! No wonder he called me. How is a mere normie to understand the importance of my mission?! Ahhhhh my unused joints are crying out in agony. Uwwaaaaaaah end my misery, let this gross otaku go back to his room!!”
Ahead of him, he could hear chatter and he felt sick to the pit of his stomach. He was not ready for this level of social gathering, with some extroverts no less! Not to mention that there would be a new face in the midst!
You were guarded from view when he entered the dining room looking ready to pass out. It was the voice that gave you away. All his anxiety and discomfort was forgotten. He was fixed to the spot.
Without another glance, he left, rushing for his room.
“Levi? Levi?! Where are ya goin’?” Mammon called after him.
“Leviathan! Come back this instant,” Lucifer looked displeased.
“Did I do something wrong?” you asked timidly.
“Ohhh hunny don’t worry about him. He probably has some anime to watch,” Asmo spoke soothingly.
After shutting his door after him, he collapsed into a heap on his floor.
Those eyes… How long had it been since he actually looked into your eyes?
And he knew that he wouldn’t sleep peacefully that night.
༺☆༻
He tried his best to not cross your path. It shouldn’t have been THAT difficult. He had managed to do it several times during the last centuries. The only difference was that now you wanted to know him, to be his friend and in front of that persistence, he felt weak.
“Leviathan? Are you inside? I bought a new game but I can’t understand the mechanics. Can you show me, please?”
“Leviathan, I got some snacks. Would you like to share?”
“Leviathan, what are you up to? I think we should get acquainted, you know?”
When he finally responded, you seemed to grow bolder.
“Levi! Asmo said I could call you that. I hope you don’t mind. It would be nice if we could talk…”
The sadness in your voice broke his heart so he yielded. On witnessing the efforts that you were putting to form a bond with him, he opened the doors to his room and his heart for you. After weeks of gaming together and getting to know you — this you that lived independent of the love he felt ages ago — he couldn’t help wanting to be with you as more than friends.
You were radiant in his eyes and he felt comfortable around you. How long had it been since he actually enjoyed company?
However, there was no denying the sad truth that with something precious came the fear of losing it. It was a double edged sword and Levi could clearly see himself getting impaled at the sharp end of his feelings. Yet it would be a choice he made himself and he could no longer deny himself that.
༺☆༻
“Levi,” your voice floated from the other side of the door.
The controller slipped from his fingers. Bewilderment was quickly replaced by surprise and rage, followed closely by relief. So you hadn’t forgotten him.
The last few weeks had been dreadful. When you started spending time, holed up with Solomon in his study, Levi felt that he had lost you. What did you two talk about in solitude? He kept wondering with envy.
“Levi, are you there? I have something to show you!”
That broke his reverie. He got up and opened the door for you.
“Hi!” you said with a smile. “Wow Levi it’s been a while since I saw you, huh?”
He fidgeted nervously and nodded, neither looking at you nor speaking. There was silence for a few moments before you spoke awkwardly.
“Are you angry with me?”
“N-No,” he managed, his face flushing pink. He understood your decision, truly he did. “Everyone will p-p-prefer Solomon to a yucky otaku like m-m-me.”
When he saw you move closer from the corner of his eyes, he turned towards you in shock. The expression on your face just confused him more.
He wasn’t expecting you to look… disappointed.
“Levi, why would you say that? That’s not true… You must know that. In fact, I have something to show that I appreciate you.”
He followed your gaze and blinked. Perched on your arm was a phoenix. He felt a little stupid for not noticing it before. The bird fixed a curious gaze on Levi and spread its wings, showcasing its splendid plumage of every colour imaginable.
“Pet it. Go on.”
When he hesitantly moved his hand forward, the bird leaned in, almost wanting to be caressed.
You smiled when he was mesmerised by the soft feathers. “I am so glad it likes you!”
“Yeah,” he murmured, awestruck that a mythical bird would actually welcome his affection. That’s when he remembered something.
“Wait, but what is the surprise?”
“Only that I want you to look after the little guy with me. This phoenix will be under OUR care from now on!”
His hand fell to his side stiffly. “Whaaaa- Buuuu- Wouldn’t Satan be a better choice for this kind of thing??”
“Well yeah,” you hesitated. “But I want it to be you, Levi.”
His throat felt parched and he was at a loss of words. He looked at the phoenix and then at your uneasy face. Knowing exactly what he wanted, he allowed him this excess.
“O-Okay, sure, [Name]. I d-don’t mind if you are fine with a gross, yucky otaku like me.”
He lost the function of his brain when your face brightened up and you grabbed his hand with a joyous cheer. “Yayy. You will? That makes me so happy!”
When you were leaving, he felt part nervous, part ecstatic.
A fact gnawed at his mind, but was not unwelcome.
A phoenix is supposed to be immortal.

Levi jumped, a magazine lying at his feet.
“Ivel-chan was reincarnated as a slime in this life and she will have her revenge!”
He remembered crying buckets last week when they had killed her off. So what if she was a side character? In his heart, she was brighter than the protagonist who only gave fan service these days. At least Ivel-chan had character!
The door to his room flung over. Lucifer peeked inside, his eyes glimmering with sadistic enthusiasm. The twins, who were only toddlers, rested in baby clasps, one on his back, one in the front.
“Levi, dinner has been ready for ten minutes now. Do you want to come to the table or be fed right here?”
“Eep! I-I am coming.”
༺☆༻
“Mammon, don’t play with your food. Asmo, put the mirror down. Satan, don’t glare at your food,” Lucifer chided before feeding a happy Beel.
“Levi, remember that you have to show [Name] around the neighbourhood.”
Levi groaned because he liked staying indoors, “Why do I have to do it?”
“Because their family just shifted in yesterday and [Name] is the same age as you. So as good," Lucifer put emphasis, making Levi shudder, "neighbours, we must do our duty.”
༺☆༻
Seeing you for the first time made Levi feel butterflies in his stomach. You seemed someone out of his memory but that somehow made you feel more real than ever. Every word of protest he had been repeating to himself till then disappeared.
He has had crushes before, both reel and real but it felt different this time. It was as if he knew you from somewhere, and not in a I-have-seen-you-before kind of way but in a I-know-you-well kind of way. It made him feel uncomfortable. He felt violated, as if you could see right through him. He might not be too difficult to read, given that he was nothing more than a yucky otaku but he still had some secrets he wanted to keep safe and your vibe was completely off.
“Do I know you?” you asked, feeling a knot in your stomach that you could not justify.
The idea of letting a stranger show you around a new neighbourhood made you anxious, but the feeling that dominated you right now was curiosity, and surprisingly, interest.
༺☆༻
Levi wasn't that bad. He actually did a good job showing you the places that mattered. The arcade, the stores where the best instant ramen was to be found, the aquarium, and… an anime cafe, too. The last one quite surprised you.
You started hanging out together, mostly because you had become acquainted with him a little, and he seemed fun. He held the same opinion about you and made plans together, although all of it was in his room, playing games.
It felt as if you had lived those exact moments several times with him. Every time he leaned against you during an intense gaming session and apologised, or when he offered you new ramen flavours to try, you would be hit with a memory from a time unknown.
Even though your mind was foggy, you knew that the places you pictured him in were more beautiful than your memory could produce. To add colour to mystery, he was in some sort of an angel cosplay. It all felt really bizarre but it made you think about him more than should be considered healthy.
In his turn, Levi felt guilty that he just couldn't get you out of his mind. He was supposed to be a good friend to you. Wasn't it betraying you if he was, what he believed it to be, falling in love with you?!
༺☆༻
The dreams followed soon. You could neither understand the significance nor discuss it with someone to come to a conclusion.
Those felt disconnected and unreal and you kept mixing the details in your head, not to mention the haunted look Levi had the day after you got one of the dreams.
One day, you decided to take him into your confidence. Slowly but firmly.
You said casually, “Levi, why do you look so tired today?”
He blinked and looked frightened, “Huuuu-? Me?? We-Well, there's something on my m-m-mind. I didn't know how to t-tell you this. I've been having strange dreams these days. I got one last night.”
You stopped in your tracks abruptly to turn towards him. He felt hot under your intense gaze.
“Wh-Why are you looking at m-m-me like that?”
“It’s just,” you began, extremely calm and intrigued, “I have been having dreams that I can’t explain for a while too. Maybe we should talk.”
༺☆༻
“Is this the place?” you called out to Levi after reaching the top of the hill.
The poor guy had been running to keep up with you. Presently, he sat down to rest. Once he could breathe well, he looked around.
There were a few trees scattered around. Wild grass and dandelions had spread there for a good while, lending a weathered yellow look to the place.
It was hauntingly beautiful in your eyes.
“Y-Yeah, this is the place I saw in my dr-dreams. I have been too afraid to come here alone,” Levi said, almost breathless.
The place seemed to talk to him too.
You explored the place while Levi was content with glancing around from his spot.
A sense of nostalgia washed over you. When you glanced back at him, you knew that he felt the same.
On walking around, you came across a small pond that seemed to draw you in.
That's when you saw something shining between the rocks.
After nudging the rocks aside, you found a locket there. It must have been a pretty colour once but now it was rusted and impossible to open.
You didn't know why you hid it so quickly when you heard Levi calling out for you.
Maybe you needed time to think and figure it out yourself first.
༺☆༻
You couldn't put the matter aside for later. The object seemed to call out to you so you put the controller down and turned towards Levi.
“Listen, I picked something up from that place.”
You pulled the locket out and showed it to your friend.
His eyes grew as large as saucepans, “Wh-What do you mean you just randomly picked it up? It could be bad, REALLY b-bad! We still don’t know what those dreams mean!”
You sighed and motioned it towards him, “But isn’t this better than to just speculate?”
He croaked, “The dreams make me uncomfortable… the place… I feel like I have been there before.”
You inched closer to him.
“I understand. Don't worry, I am here with you.”
He stared at you before his lips finally curved up in a smile. “Thank you. You are my true friend, my best friend even!”
Then he shrugged his shoulders, “I guess this is what a protagonist would do. Who am I to stop you? Let's see if it does anything.”
When he touched the locket in your hand, everything around grew dark.
༺☆༻
You were transported to a place beautiful beyond expectations. A strong, shaky hand wrapped around your shoulder, surprising you. A quick glance revealed that it was Levi. He was wearing pure white robes and there was a halo floating on his head. You wanted to laugh and tease him but you couldn’t move.
“I love you, [Name],” he said. The pain in his voice and the fire in his eyes took you aback. “I-I promise that I will pr-protect you in the war.”
What war?
Your mouth seemed to have a mind of its own. Your hand intertwined with his and you found yourself smiling while your veins coursed with fear. “I love you too, Levi. I will not let any harm come to you. Forever, remember?”
“Yes, fo-forever,” he spoke shyly but there was a smile on his face.
༺☆༻
The scene shifted. You were in armed combat with an extremely angry looking woman.
Damn! She was skilled. Every time she swung her spear, you thought that you were about to die, but your body moved meticulously to avoid the attacks.
“[Name], are you fine?” Levi screamed from somewhere.
The female angel raised her eyebrows and showed you a nasty smile before pointing her spear in the direction of Levi’s voice. Your eyes widened as you turned around only to find him busy commanding his army.
He would notice the spear too late! You launched yourself in front of him just before the fatal blow.
“[Name]!”
The poison flowed through your body with vigour, making you fall in and out of consciousness. Levi caught you just as you were about to give up.
With his features contorted with rage, he turned towards the female angel. She smiled triumphantly.
"SOLDIERS!" Levi bellowed. "Attack her!"
The woman got her spear ready and took charge while Levi's army flew past Levi at top speed.
The legion of angels he had been fighting looked on with hope.
The leader of the opposition commanded in a muffled tone, “Attack [Name] together while Leviathan is distracted. That way he will lose his intention to fight.”
Someone put a dagger through Levi's back but despite not understanding the source of the pain, he shielded you with his body. He prioritised you over his own life.
"Soldiers! Protect [Name]!"
It was too late. His eyes felt heavy owing to the poison in the dagger. He couldn't even see where his sworn angels were for the last time or who had been his nemesis in the end.
You both fell together. If you couldn't be alive together, then you two would be together in death.
༺☆༻
“I wish we had a normal life together. Then, we wouldn’t have had to live like outcasts,” Levi whispered when he saw you struggling to keep your eyes open. “As long as I had a chance to live with you, I was happy being an outcast. It seems that our time is up now.”
Levi cried, not because of his condition, but to see life draining from your eyes slowly. “I-I am the happiest angel that’s about to die, [Name]. I am sorry I couldn’t protect you in this life.”
A tear ran down your cheek, “I am sorry too for breaking my promise. I couldn't be with you forever. I couldn't protect you in the end either… I hope we meet again, Levi. I will love you in every lifetime.”
Your hands were intertwined, a locket in your grasp. A locket that enclosed your happiest memory together.
༺☆༻
The flashback ended and you both came back to your senses.
“Ouch!” you yelled and tried to pull your hand back. Levi had it in a tight grasp.
On seeing the fear etched on his face, you got quiet and took a deep breath. It had all felt so surreal.
“What just happened?” you murmured, the full burden of the flashback just setting in.
He looked at your entwined hands and noticed the absence of the locket. He felt a pang in his heart. He only knew that it had been important once but he didn't understand how. Surely it was no merch so why did he care so much?!
“I th-think it was the locket," he blurted out. "When we bo-both touched it, we finally saw the… the entire dream.”
A thoughtful silence filled the room.
You whispered, “I don’t think it was a dream.”
You squeezed his hand gently before looking at him with bated breath.
His lower lip quivered, “I don’t think it was a dream either.”
He turned his gaze towards you. His grip tightened, “D-Did I ever tell you that I am glad we met? I'm happy that you're not a dream. I want to keep knowing you, to make more memories with you. Will you let me?”
༺☆༻
Two people, seated in a small room, forgot the game they had been playing and instead glanced at each other at the moment. Their eyes held tenderness and the advent of new love.
The vast world danced with endless possibilities for their future. No moment was wasted as they decided their own future, unsullied by their past but still keeping their spirit alive.
It was a life they wanted and that was good enough.

❝with a mc who can control water❞
Tumblr media
« characters -> leviathan, belphegor, simeon, solomon »
« gender neutral reader »
« headcanons »
« note -> not my best but i just got the idea while washing my hands one day and wondered what it'd be like to control water 🫠 »
Tumblr media
LEVIATHAN
He thinks you are the coolest ever, even more so because his element is water. When you use your powers to make the water inside the fish tank float, along with Henry, he is more than a little scared. However, he trusts you and knows that you wouldn't do something dangerous that could very well endanger the life of his aquatic friends. He manages to smile when Henry seems to be enjoying.
You two have playful fights using your respective water powers. He is happy to finally meet someone who he can connect to so well. Since being around water makes him feel calm and you seem to be so at home with that element, you comfort his nerves. You make him feel closer to his roots. It's a little strange.
Instead of urging Levi to come out of his room these days, the brothers are trying to dissuade him from starting to live somewhere near the sea, away from civilization but where the internet connection is strong. You would, of course, be invited to live with him.
BELPHEGOR
"Make me a pillow with water."
"Bring me juice. No, don't get up. Use your powers."
You seem to run errands for the seventh born these days, but these duties are fulfilled while you are trapped under his arm.
Be certain that he will plan to play pranks on Lucifer using your water powers. Oh, the eldest born is giving a speech? Why not make it shower inside the building? Only the victim of the shower will be the raven haired sadist. Ah, is Lucifer busy with paperwork? Perhaps a little splash on the written material will teach him a lesson... Sadly, Lucifer is not tricked so easily. He indulges you once or twice when the prank is contained inside the four walls of HOL with none to witness his shame. That is all the victory that the Anti-Lucifer league can expect, only because it was you.
If you are playful with him using your powers, he will join you and be mischievous. Your splashes are met with him guarding himself using his pillow or returning the spells two-folds whenever your powers don't overwhelm him. Moments like those will remind you that he is the youngest of seven brothers.
SIMEON
He is a little uncertain about situations that involve you and Holy Water.
"Don't play with it this time, okay? Holy Water will act just like normal water. I think you already made sure of that several times." he says while being busy with arrangements. His face looks a little strained.
It's mostly because he will need the water for some ceremony later and wants to find it the way he leaves it. Even though he understands your curiosity, he can't help but be concerned.
He loves to see you using your powers to mix several drinks midair. The kaleidoscope of colours looks beautiful and makes him nostalgic. Your creativity in regards to exploring intrigues him.
"I want to take you to the beautiful places in the Celestial realm. There's lot of pure water to play with."
If you are being high-spirited and flirty with your powers, he will smile and enjoy the moment. It takes him a little nudging to return the favour.
A drenched Simeon looks lovely and one can't fault his wish to see you get soaked too.
SOLOMON
Despite not being a fan of the ocean, he likes to see you bring forth majestic waves at will. The height and power! He would love to see you unleash your entire strength.
He is confused when you remove all the water from the vicinity whenever he intends to cook for you. Since your water powers surpass his, he can only sigh and complain about how you make him look like an old fool. How is he supposed to make your favourite dishes without water?!
He is always open if you need guidance or advice controlling or using your powers. He can even teach you how to talk to sea animals, like dolphins and such so that you can make friends in your element. Needless to say, he designs experiments to test your potential. Ah, can he make some device which can harness your powers to do good for the realm?
He fully supports your pranks. Maybe make someone slip but then catch them in a blanket of water? When those red eyes widen in shock, it will be quite fun... Oops, he wasn't thinking about Lucifer. Any demon would do :) He is just curious... oh so curious!

❝when you repeat his words❞

« notes -> suggestive for lucifer's part, the way he is in the game... platonic for luke »
Tumblr media
LUCIFER
His brows furrow.
"What is the meaning of this?"
When you mimic his displeased demeanour, he is almost sure that you are making fun of him.
Eyes narrowed, he stares at you for a while before sighing and bursting out into laughter, "You sure come up with the most random activities to have fun. It's cute."
Sure enough, you repeat his words.
"Hmmm? Why don't you follow me to my room and I will tell you about the latest activity I thought of? We can both take part in it and it won't be 'cute'," he smiles meaningfully.
ASMODEUS
"Awwww, you're such a cutie, trying to mimic my words!" he says. After a moment of pondering, he smiles seductively and coos, "I love love looove you, Asmo chan ♡.You are the brightest star on any stage! I swoon over your perfection, my lovely darling. Why don't you reserve all your hugs and kisses for me only? I want you all to myself! Oh, you are such a tease! Why do you leave me even for a moment? Please take me in your arms, right now and spoil me, my sweetheart!"
You are left speechless at the words he came up with on the spot. Since you didn't memoriese the words, you tried to satisfy him in your own way.
"Asmo, you know how I love you. You steal my attention when you walk into a room~"
He squeals, "Kyaaaa♡~ You did almost as good as the original! I knew you wouldn't disappoint me."
SOLOMON
He laughs at your antics and is amused to find you mimicking that sound too. When he narrows his eyes, you know that the cogwheels in his head are turning with some idea of its own.
"I am glad that I have a good teacher," he says coyly, waiting for you to reply. The smirk on his face makes you falter. You realise that irrespective of your reply, he will have his fun so you shrug and give up.
LUKE
When you stay silent, his smile widens. "Seems like your teacher taught you well. You know when to quit. Hahaha."
He blushes when he notices, his initial surprise fading away. Normally he would consider it rude but since it's you, he knows you're not making fun of him. So he's fine with it.
"H-Hey! Why are you repeating my words?"
"And the cute chihuahua says, 'H-Hey! Why are you repeating my words?'." you tease.
"I am NOT a chihuahua!" he pouts with hands formed in fists.
"I am NOT a chihuahua!" you bellow in an exaggerated manner and sulk.
Luke looks upset so you drop the act.
BARBATOS
He doesn't really react so you are left wondering if he even realised what you are doing.
"Barbatos, did you notice that I repeated the exact words you said? And copied your mannerisms too?"
"Why, yes, of course I did." he answers with soft laughter escaping his lips. " If I may take the liberty, allow me to say that I quite enjoyed it. And now, if you will quench my curiosity, why did you do so?"
His curious eyes fixed on you, taking you quite by surprise. "Eh... I was just having fun."
"Ah, I see. If it makes you happy, I will like to see you continue your endeavour."
A blush dusts his cheeks as he continues, "If I may be so bold, I will be really happy to know that I am the only one you mimic."
DIAVOLO
He finds the whole experience highly enjoyable.
"Oh, is this a human world game where you mimic the other's words? Hahaha I think this is an innovative way to bring people together."
The twinkle in his eyes makes you answer his question rather than continuing your prank. "Yes, it's really fun."
"Ohhhh? Is it my turn to repeat your words now?" he muses. Mirroring your actions, his voice echos, "Yes, it's fun."
You laugh at his seriousness so he joins you - half for the game, half because he wants to share the moment with you.
When Barbatos finds you two like that, he quickly exits. The sacred moment need not a third participant.
MEPHISTOPHELES
"I don't have time for this," he says when you stare at him for a while without speaking. "If you have something to say, say it."
He frowns when you repeat his words.
"Has the cold and lack of sun gotten to your head? You were the one who came to me."
He looks irritated when you mimic him again.
"I am a demon. I am used to the cold and lack of sun.... Ah I see. I read about a game like this in the human world. Why don't you find another victim, like Lucifer? I would love to know how he reacted."
The idea seems to please him so much that he starts daydreaming on the spot.

❝grocery shopping with him❞
Tumblr media
« characters - demon brothers, solomon, diavolo»
« gender neutral reader »
« headcanons »
Tumblr media
LUCIFER
He is very efficient. Knowing exactly where every aisle is, the shopping basket is full in the blink of an eye. You are there only to keep him company. Time with you is precious and he intends to keep you close whenever the opportunity presents itself.
He scans the prices and brands before making a decision. He gets the best coffee beans directly from the plantations and he pays them well. He is “husband goals” if you are of an economic mind. He has a lot of coupons but his pride forbids him from using those. Beel is only too happy to receive it from his eldest brother. Owing to his busy schedule, he sometimes gets the necessities delivered. The bored cashier straightens up and greets him very respectfully.
He insists on carrying the bags himself and doesn’t listen to your protests.
MAMMON
Well, he’s scared to visit some stores because he hasn’t paid them back for decades. He is very particular about the stores you two can visit. Once there, he vanishes to check out the shelves and schemes about what he can sell for a higher price.
“After all, demons would pay extra to buy it from THE Great Mammon. We can send the bill to Lucifer. Hahaha,” says Mammon with a bunch of mismatched stuff in his shopping basket.
The burden of completing the shopping falls on you.
You sigh, “Let’s get it done before Lucifer calls and asks for dinner.”
You two carry the shopping bags together.
He buys you a gift while browsing.
LEVIATHAN
He is incapable of completing this mission alone. You must accompany him as he makes a comeback in the outside world in what feels like an eternity! His eyes dart to and fro as if afraid that someone will be disgusted by his presence.
“Where can we get this item, [Name]?” he asks for literally everything on the list.
You give him a tour for the future despite him refusing to follow.
“Levi, you should know where everything is!”
He literally gags when he sees seafood and runs away as fast as he can.
“Levi, wait! You can’t go out with the basket without paying first!”
You apologise for him but keep supporting him. You carry all the bags because he looks shaken and weak.
ASMODEUS
“Oh, [Name], look at these cute shaped cookies. We should definitely get these for my Devilgram!”
Within a few minutes, he has gotten everything in the store that’s not on the list.
“Asmo,” you say breathlessly as you try to catch up to him, “We need to buy groceries for dinner! We can’t eat chocolates and cookies… is that lip gloss? Let’s grab some vegetables!”
Asmo pouts but you shield your eyes from his cuteness. “No, Asmo! It’s been an hour. We should get started now. Plus, the two of us can’t carry all that!”
That’s when he gives up. “You are right. Maybe we can come back some other time. Let’s get the food before Lucifer gets mad.”
He returns some items since it got too heavy and then you two easily carry it to HOL.
SATAN
He’s very methodical and knows where the best deals are to be found! The shopkeepers know him only too well. Oh, vegetables? He knows a place where you can get fresh ones. Ah toiletries? Why, allow him to show you where good quality yet cheap toilet paper can be found. Name it!
Owing to his influence, he never returns from a shopping trip without getting everything that’s on his list - even if it’s sold out everywhere.
“I must get fresh ingredients to prove that my food is better than Lucifer’s,” he grins as he starts dinner preparations. “Oh, and try this coffee. The beans are a delicacy. I stayed awake for 2 days after drinking half a cup. I completed an entire series by a writer I like.”
“Sounds dangerous for the health, Satan.”
BEELZEBUB
You accompany him to make sure that he doesn’t eat the grocery store while he’s at it. He listens to you and tries to control himself but his hands still stretch to grab some food items that nobody should eat raw. So you have to devote half of your attention picking items for dinner and the other half to make sure that Beel doesn’t cause a lot of trouble.
“I’ll make you something you will enjoy for dinner so just wait for a bit longer, bub,” you promise and he behaves.
The rest of the trip is spent imagining all the delicacies that he will request you to make.
He carries all the bags back.
BELPHEGOR
He’s too lazy to care.
“Why didn't you ask one of my brothers to do the shopping in your place?” Belphie groans, looking drowsy. The supermarket was not his idea of an ideal date. “You know that they would have been only too happy to do it if you had asked. Then we could have taken a nap together instead.”
You put some onions in the basket and turn towards him wearily. “But it was my turn today. I can't always drop the burden on someone else. Besides,” your tone softens, almost apologetic, “Why don't I make something you like tonight? Something light on the stomach that will help you get good dreams?”
He narrows his eyes but looks pleased, “It seems that I am no different than my brothers. I can't say no to you. You make me melt. What can I say? You know me too well… ”
You carry the bags while he carries a pillow.
DIAVOLO
He tags along to spend time with you. The idea of chatting with you while doing the most mundane daily activities appeals to him. It’s sweet and endearing and he likes to stop talking and instead observe you deciding between two brands. These are Barbatos’ duties so he never gets the chance to enjoy these. He seems to be familiar with tea and coffee and can guide you about the best ones, even though he rarely drinks store-bought beverages.
He bombards you with questions about what you usually buy and make for dinner and promises to join you again if he's free.
He won’t let you carry the bags. Let him help you. Whoever sees the demon prince with grocery bags in his hands feels startled. Even royal demons are involved in housework! Mothers will be telling this story to the little ones for centuries to come.
SOLOMON
Solomon takes his time since you are there with him. A man needs to relax after researching all day.
“Ah look at this leafy cabbage. This was grown at the Hellfire Plantation. They use a special kind of manure. It’s very tasty,” he says and buys two.
The extent of his knowledge is bizarre. When he catches you looking mystified, he laughs. “Haha you look so suspicious of me. I am sorry. For some time in the last century, I took special interest in learning about the agricultural and rearing practices in the Devildom.”
“Wow Solomon,” you say impressed. “There seems to be nothing you don’t know!”
“Haha, that’s kind of you but there’s still a lot to learn about the world.”
“Thank you for coming shopping with me. Why don’t we return to Purgatory Hall? I will treat you to my cooking?” he offers with a satisfied smile.
Your instinct tells you to run but you ignore it and smile shakily instead. “Eh… ah… I actually promised Levi that I will play games with him tonight. Sorry! Maybe next time?”
That's when your legs start moving in the opposite direction, deserting him with all the bags.

❝when someone insults you❞
Tumblr media
« characters - diavolo, belphegor, mephistopheles »
« gender neutral reader »
« headcanons »
Tumblr media
MEPHISTOPHELES
It looks bad for the realm and the entire race that you should be subjected to mockery. Walking indignantly to the demon, he warns them to behave themselves. They wouldn't like the news of their misconduct to reach every eye possible. Right? So they better beware of the ears around them.
Knowing his rank and reach, the demon does not dare make matters worse for them and leaves you in peace.
"Hmph. Don't get any weird ideas that I did it for you. Someone needed to know their place so I showed it to them. Now let me remind you of yours. Go to the classroom! It would be abominable if the exchange student is late!"
BELPHEGOR
Murder has always been his middle name and it shows on his face, in the way he grunts and bares his sharp teeth, a hard glint appearing in his eyes. The person who insulted you sees him at his angriest and they feel treacherous fear fill their hearts. It will be a while before they stop looking behind to check if this sinister demon, who can deliver all that his murderous eyes promise, is following them or not. His reputation as the unforgiving seventh born preceeds him and since your enemies are his enemies, demons usually try to leave you alone.
DIAVOLO
Nobody shall speak against you in his presence. He happens to walk in on two demons badmouthing you, and his usual good humour leaves him. In a stern, terrible voice, he stops them and tells them how lowly it is to speak about someone behind their backs, especially the human exchange student. His subjects should be well aware of their conduct at all times.
Tumblr media
Were they possibly questioning his choice by finding personal deficiencies in you? It was an rebellious act against the throne itself. The calm delivery makes the demons shudder, fall on their knees for forgiveness before running away, not to show their faces until they have apologised a dozen times to the Student Council and personally to you.

❝when you don't want to commit in a relationship because of past betrayals❞
Tumblr media
« characters - asmodeus, beelzebub »
« gender neutral reader »
« headcanons »
« note - y'all voted for asmo and beel so here you go »
Tumblr media
BEELZEBUB
He wishes he could go back in time and annihilate every person who hurt you knowingly but that will prove nothing. All he can do now is offer you a tight hug and promises that you both know he will keep at the expense of his own life. Nothing he says or does will change the past and he's smart enough to know that. However, he also believes that the future doesn't have to be defined by past mistakes - a lesson learned from his own failure. He will be there with food to cheer you up when a bad episode hits you; he will wrap you in a blanket and rub your tears if you feel comfortable showing him; he will listen to you even if he can't offer the best advice and his sincere grunts come only after listening to all you have to say attentively.
He will never force you to be with him if you don't want to. Your company is pleasant and sufficient. Even if you don't want to be his significant other, that doesn't change the fact that you are a part of his family. He already won in life, he is content. All that matters is your happiness.
ASMODEUS
It is one of those rare instances in his self absorbed life that he forgets himself completely only to serve someone else. If asked, Asmo would readily reply that you are worth it all. Knowing that he has no chance is his biggest fear, his greatest pet peeve. All that he is lies in the contour of his face, the curves of his body. If someone doesn't show interest after seeing him for all his glory, how is he to define himself? Despite the pain, he looks sad on your behalf. Labels fail to describe every relationship and it's fine.
He loves you. You made him feel an emotion more beautiful than he will ever be and he is grateful to you for it. He wishes that you find comfort in yourself too just the way you offer it to others so naturally.
"Oh honey, life gets difficult. You have Asmo-chan now. Let me spoil you, sweetie." he sings.
And pampering you is what he does in no expectation of a reward. His intentions are honourable as is his love for you.
Maybe it's dishonest but he's a demon so some hearts are about to break. People who backstabbed you in the past better look out for they are about to suffer.
