About pacts
The game is kinda ABOUT the pacts, but somehow I feel like the concept is not fleshed out enough in canon. So I’m fixing that! I am making them so fluffy, I am developing them into the magic QPR bond of my dreams lol
(Brief mentions of blood and sex under the cut, be warned)
Ok so. In the game, the pacts have four key functions: 1, allows the human to give the demon binding orders. 2, gives the human a way to amplify the demon’s abilities and strengths. 3, implied, gives the demon a way to do the same thing for the human, to lend them their own strength. 4, allows the human to summon the demon basically for free. Have him on speed dial, I suppose. Summon with no ritual, no spell components, no nothing except an incantation.
That’s cool, I like that. But like,, iirc the game says nothing of the mechanics of this, or how the pacts feel!
I think pacts should be a mildly psychic connection. Nothing like what Beel and Belphie have going on, and no actual ability to put words telepathically in your demon’s head (and vice versa), but like… an Awareness of each other, muted and vague when you’re not actively reaching out through the pact, but just enough that like,, you can feel them vaguely in the back of your mind. You know they’re alive, and you can mentally reach for them if you want to.
When you ARE using the pact, it doesn’t HAVE to be for one of the aforementioned four functions. It can also be… just a mild mental ping, like tugging on a string or tapping them lightly to get their attention. When they reach back, the bond opens up a little bit more, to allow the passage of emotions, flashes of memories, even awareness of about how far you are from each other and what direction you’re in. All entirely voluntary, no invasive mind-reading, but you can mentally share what you want with each other.
I feel like the pacts don’t have to imply romance. But, they DO imply partnership—not necessarily exclusive partnership, in fact probably it isn’t an exclusive sort of thing by default. Plenty of demons have multiple humans, and plenty of humans have multiple demons. The sort of partnership that doesn’t really have a standard box to fit into by average human reckoning. Queerplatonic partnership. Close, emotionally intimate, committed, devoted. But not necessarily having anything to do with attraction, romance, any of that.
These pacts can be purposely strengthened, to make communicating with each other like this easier. Strengthening the signal, if you will.
The key to that is two things: emotional intimacy/trust, and sharing vitality (or however you wanna phrase it. Vitality, life, essence, soul, etc. I mean this to encompass a few different things, and none of those words is a perfect fit for all of them. Let’s say there’s an untranslatable word in infernal that fits perfectly). Specifically, the human and the demon make mental contact through the pact with the intent to strengthen the bond, then do whichever of the sharing vitality/essence/life/soul things that they feel like doing.
For example:
Kissing. An emotionally intimate thing to do that involves sharing fluid. DNA counts as essence, and this is a way of combining it. A textbook, effective way to reinforce a close bond. Doesn’t even strictly have to be romantic! It CAN be for sure, and usually is, but like… you can also kiss the homies out of platonic affection if you want to. Especially if the homies in question are demons in a pact with you. This is normal and chill to them.
Also, simply sharing the same air! Pressing foreheads together (think keldabe kiss minus the helmets), noses touching (i think this is called kunik). Sharing breath. This absolutely counts as sharing vitality. Also, afaik this is a thing people would only have the instinct to do with someone they really love. It’s such a soft, peaceful thing that doesn’t make sense in any other context but trust and devotion and emotional intimacy. Super good way of reinforcing a close bond!
Obviously sex works for this too. Obviously. It ticks all the boxes: reinforces a close bond, combining vitality/essence, can be very emotionally intimate. Probably the most textbook option.
In the other direction, possibly not quite as expected but totally works if you think about it: bloodshed. I’m sure it’s common enough in the ritually combining blood sort of way, but also… think about fighting at your pacted demon’s side, or getting wounded and then being rescued (seems more likely, especially in part 1), and both of you bleeding. Physically supporting each other, spilling your vitality onto each other, each wiping blood off of the other and patching each other up in the aftermath of an altercation. Really, you can’t get more devoted and trusting than that.
Food, as well. Taking a bite of something, then feeding a bite to your pact partner. Your food is the source of your vitality, in a similar way to breath. It’s your life. Sharing food with this intent absolutely works. It works even better if it’s food you made, and/or familiar food that you love in such a way that it’s part of your identity. That way, it works twofold. The physical effect of metabolizing the food is your vitality, and the identity aspect—feeding a loved one something that resonates with who you are—is sharing your essence/soul.
This one’s a bit of a reach, but I think it still works—tears. Experiencing something that makes both pact partners cry, be it a sad story, an emotional conversation, painful events, etc. Supporting each other through that, feeling compassion for each other, comforting each other. There’s no shortage of intimacy, devotion, and trust in this. On both an emotional and physical level, this counts as sharing soul/essence/life.
Sharing soul/vitality/essence/life (whatever the fitting word for this in infernal would be) on purpose like this would absolutely bring pacted partners closer together. Strengthens the bond between them, helps them understand each other, reinforces the love. Strengthen a pact enough and eventually you won’t even need the incantation to summon that demon.

(I am planning to put this in my rewrite of obey me season 1 with my own MC, of course. Once I progress enough to start posting it, that is lol)
(but also, maybe, if I find the inspiration, I might write gn reader!MC oneshots with these concepts. Pls let me know if you think I should try! Also, anyone is more than welcome to use this for your own writing if you want)
EDIT: I wrote a oneshot! The time when my MC found out that strengthening pacts is a thing, with Beel and Mammon. Here it is!

Human video games
Do you think the demons would be offended by the way demons are portrayed in human world video games? And I don’t just mean like,, the games in which their names are used.
I mean like, demons as a shorthand for big powerful scary mf who is trying to break the world for no discernible reason
Like,, for example in Zelda games, Ganon is titled demon king not because he’s really a demon, but because he’s way too strong and wants to destroy the world with no end goal
Idk, do yall think that’d be a culture shock for them? Would Levi be offended, I think is what I’m getting at? Or would he find it funny, or not care?
Not sure, but either way I think it’d be entertaining

Maybe Beel is scared of spiders
I mean. He’s a fly
Mostly I’m thinking of it because like,, big strong tank scared of small harmless thing is always a quality concept—and so is powerful giant mf who could destroy the scariest enemies being fully unable to even look at a creepy bug—and they’re especially good in Beel’s case because iirc he’s got some weirdass fears (thinking of the thing with him getting freaked out about one of Lucifer’s records, i forget where in the games it shows up) and also he’s bodyguard! He’s protector! He fights shit for his brothers all the time! He tanks for them because he loves them!! They love him back so like. Let him need protecting too sometimes, just a little bit, yknow?
I’m imagining,, Beel prob is always defending Belphie from danger and scary shit in combat, killing and otherwise removing threats for him and all, but then,, just at home, no combat scenario happening, there’s a spider and Beel is scared so now there’s role reversal. Belphie has to protect Beel for once. This is the only scenario where Belphie is the one killing/removing scary shit for Beel
Idk, I think it’s a good concept! Beel should be scared of spiders

Intro+rules stuff
Hello! I’m Adhara. I like Obey Me! I’m familiar with the OG game, but not nightbringer. Trying to get back into writing. I’m working on a rewrite fic on ao3 with my own MC (Auva) and I also have a BUNCH of worldbuilding/concept notes. The purpose of this blog is half to practice and interact, and half to infodump about my MC and her version of the story because that’s fun.
I’m most comfortable with writing the seven brothers. Much less so for the undateables, and I have absolutely no familiarity with the new three. For now I’m only willing to write stuff focused on the bros.
Here’s my masterlist
Requests open! Use the ask box. It’ll be labeled “request box” when requests are open. It’ll be labelled “ask me anything” when they’re not open.
Don’t be afraid to get too detailed (more detail is better!). Be patient and polite. I reserve the right to not write something I don’t want to. I will default to a gn MC for these things, but I could write a fem MC too. Sorry, no male MC, because… I’m not one.
Request format, in case that helps (I find it does, requesting can be nerve-wracking. I personally always freak out about formatting, so. If it helps you, please use it)
[insert greeting/pleasantry here], I have a request for [insert name of brother(s)/all seven].
[insert idea here]
[insert relevant details about MC here, like pronouns and relationship to relevant characters]
Feel free to talk to me about your own MCs too! Or just in general! I’d be very happy to brainrot together :]
I WILL write:
Headcanons, oneshots, reactions, scenarios, concept brainrot, character analysis
Fluff! Hurt/comfort! Angst! Slice of life! Found family!
Platonic relationships, queerplatonic relationships… I can TRY writing romantic relationships. I will always default to platonic, QPR, or familial dynamics.
I will NOT write:
Smut/NSFW
Pedo shit (obviously)
Demoncest
Will add more shit I won’t write as I come across it I guess
