Fragment Friday!
Fragment of Layered Realms chapter four!!
The incubus gripped my shoulders gently, pulling me back from my thoughts and into the real world again.
“Never mind, Goody-goody,” he whispered. That was odd— oh, fuck, right, demon. Could sense my emotions. 
“S-sorry about that—“
“Don’t apologize for feeling things strongly. ‘Those who have felt the deepest grief are best able to experience supreme happiness.’ That’s an Alexandre Dumas quote.” 
“Why do you know that?” I laughed a little incredulously. He snorted.
“I’ve regularly visited the human realm for decades, little Good-goody. I know my way around.” 
“Would you stop calling me that?” I laughed. 
“Maybe when you prove to me it’s not true, Goody-Two-Shoes,” he sing-songed. Oh I liked this guy. 
“Pffft— maybe buy me dinner first. Or, y’know, just buy me dinner— no fucking required. That’d be awesome too.” I rolled my eyes and went back to my paperwork.

The Unconventional Meet-Cute by @schizonephilim
I wanted to read something different from my usual go-to, and I had this story in my To Be Read 'pile' for a while, so I read chapter 1! I can't wait to read chapter 2. It's really well-written and the sexy times are awesome.
~*~*~
Nominated by @spn-fanfic-reblog-writes
Full of Grace by ilovehowyouletmefall (AO3)
I love this fic. I have read this thing so many times. I love the intimacy and how they develop organically. How Cas just takes why Dean gives and it’s how it should be in my head. It’s sweet and fluffy. I wish Dean would stop calling Cas “pal” as if he’s fucking Mickey Mouse and Pluto but it’s amazing. I return to it a lot. It’s a comforting story that deals with mental health and I’m glad it’s set in heaven.
Cuddle Deprivation by @destielshipper4cas
This is sooo good. It’s an incubus that feeds off affection and emotions through touch. It is so good. So fluff, Castiel and Dean confused about the different cultures, which I think is a great element because it's a common problem with relationships from people of different countries or even skin color at times. Must read.
Cuddlibus by @destielshipper4cas

Heartstring Promenade by @winchester-reload
This is the ending to the series I wanted.
Destiel's 1st Time by @chaoticmotherofall
Holy shit. Wow, primal. Rawr. Must read smut. I think it’s the scene most of the fandom would want to see if they could. Sorry, not sorry.
Dean's Delights by Redamber79 (AO3)
Destiel. Baker Dean. Can smell each other through blockers. Insecure Cas. Love it! He just wants to eat Dean up and kind of does! True mates are delicious, don’t ya think?
The Company by CasCase (AO3)
You’re gonna get intimidated by the language of ballet vocab but don’t worry, it isn’t important. It’s such an amazing love story and so well written. Wow. There is even artwork of the seriously important emotional scenes that just make it so much better. Omg! I wish this was a fucking movie because it’d be gorgeous!
Room for Two (The Mattress AU) by @almassi
Schmoopy fluffiness. I love it! I also love that Cas actually gets everything but doesn’t show it. Lol. He got the references.
truly there's nobody for you but me by Abi_in_the_Cosmos (AO3)
Omfg, hotness. Cas so teasing Dean. The shorts are used. The shorts in the BTS on the show of Jensen wearing denim short shorts, which of course Dean says they exist for an in-story reason. I don’t care. It’s great.
this heart and flesh shall fail by ValandraWrites (AO3)
Monsterfucker story, technically. Great story. Dean is not technically underaged despite what it says. Twist ending. Beautiful story with a sexy but sad twist.
The Biological Ways by @sitruunavohveli
Three words: Accidental office romance Destiel! A/b/o! Love it. Love that it’s Charlie too. Yay! I also am a huge fan of this author’s works. I’ve had the pleasure of working with them and they’re just amazing to work with. Please check them out.
Weighted by amireal, tiamatv (AO3)
I absolutely love this fic because I actually sleep with a weighted blanket and when my kids are sick, they love their own. I even have one in the car. It’s light but enough to feel it. This is just so fluffy and romantic all thanks to our favorite redhead introducing weighted blankets which helps so much. It’s been shown to even help babies but blankets aren’t great for them. Anyway, they’re so cute and that scene where Dean opens his eyes all slow and gentle with “hey”, just broke me. My husband and I do that periodically and it just means more snuggles and sleep. lol. Poor Castiel thinking he couldn’t have Dean which I understand since Dean has said so much he is straight or implied it rather often. Ugh. This was done so well. Thank you both!

When There's Only You by AnOddSock (AO3)
It's such a visceral and extremely well-written story, dark and full of intense angst but at the same time it highlights that profound tenderness and affection between Sam and Dean. The whole "there is no me if there is no you". I was on the edge of my seat all the way through, my heart breaking for the brothers in such a delightful way. This fic is a great rollercoaster ride, like a dark porn with a substantial amount of well-thought-out plot. Heed the tags though... Your feels might not come out intact.
~*~*~
Nominated by @spnexploration
She Thought She Was Normal (series) by @aylacavebear
This is @Aylacavebear's first fic she's putting out into the wild and it's going to be a long multi-chapter journey. What a way to start! This first chapter takes us to poor Maria as a child, who has just lost her mother to a yellow-eyed demon, and Bobby sets her and her Dad up with Sam and Dean. Can't wait to see the whole journey!
Cuddle Deprivation by @destielshipper4cas
This was adorable!! The whole concept of cuddlibus was so cute and I loved when both Dean and Cas were trying to get more out of the relationship but thinking the other didn't want it. And including Sam's cuddlibus daughter was also adorable
Power Grows out of the Barrel of a Gun by Alaisabel (AO3)
I absolutely loved this AU. There are so many twists and turns and I had such a fun time working out what was going on. Dean is so anti-authority and he ends up in a relationship with Cas, a cop.
~*~*~
Nominated by @mrswhozeewhatsis
Fluffy Faerie Tales (series) by @ladylilithprime
This universe and the characters in it are so fascinating! Sam and Dean are half-fae, and Jimmy and Cas have a backstory that is wildly different than anything else I've ever read! (No spoilers!) Sam/Cas/Jimmy is a threesome I've never read before, I don't think, and I'm loving it. So far, all of these stories are filled with plenty of fluff, and the perfect way to end my day. Sweet dreams of faeries and friends are always welcome!
Cuddle Deprivation and Cuddlibus by @destielshipper4cas
I am now OBSESSED with the idea of cuddlibi!!! Like those who have nominated this story above, I find this idea adorable and sweet. And Cas is just SO SWEET! And there's so much delicious pining in both of these stories!! I now want to read ALL the cuddlibus stories!!
Tumblr media
THANK YOU ALL, KEEP UP THE AMAZING WORK, AND AS ALWAYS, HAPPY WRITING!
- From your Admins and Manta Rays, @manawhaat, @mrswhozeewhatsis, @mariekoukie6661, @thoughtslikeaminefield, @spencereliotwinchester, and @heavenssexiestangel!

CrypticRock.Com reviews Candyass and Vapor Transmission's release on vinyl.
At the height of Nu-metal’s popularity when bands like Korn, Limp Bizkit and Slipknot were leading as a massive charge, something rather unique also arose in the form of Orgy. A band vastly different from their contemporaries, Orgy’s sound certainly fit more comfortably in the Industrial Metal realm, but still, was in a league of its own. Self-described as Death Pop, if you were a fan of ’80s Synthwave, mixed with modern Alternative Metal, no matter the title you want to use, you were bound to love Orgy.
Initially forming in 1997, Orgy would go on to become the first band signed to Jonathan Davis’ Elementree Records; which at the time had distribution with Reprise Records. A partnership where few knew what would happen… there were a few fun facts about the members of Orgy that should not be noted. First, you had Lead Vocalist Jay Gordon; who in fact co-produced Coal Chamber’s 1997 self-titled debut. Second, you had Guitarist Amir Derakh; who had earned some notoriety as a member of ’80s Metal act Rough Cutt. And last, by not least, you had Guitarist Ryan Shuck; who was a part of the band Sexart… where he would play alongside future Korn vocalist, Jonathan Davis.
With plenty of more intriguing aspects surrounding Orgy’s cast individually, when joined together, by August of 1998 they were set to take on the world with the release of their debut album Candyass. Released on August 18th of that year, the album picked up momentum and found an audience within just a few months; thanks in part to an appearance on the Family Values Tour in the fall, alongside Korn, Limp Bizkit, Incubus, and Rammstein. Somewhat of a key moment in history of Orgy, what would follow would be the release of their impeccable cover of New Order’s “Blue Monday” that December, thus leading to even more broader popularity. In fact, you could argue that “Blue Monday” served as a gateway for audiences to see how special Orgy was; soon leading to even more attention drawn to the single “Stitches.” So, where did this unpredictable rise lead? It led to Candyass attaining platinum status, hitting Number 1 on Heatseekers charts, on its way to becoming one of the late ’90s most beloved Metal leaning records.
Truly an inspiring story of success, matching Orgy’s musical attack was a stylistic appearance that unified ’80s New Wave fashion, Glam Rock, all with a sweet little Gothic twist. Something that enticed many, the promotional images out at the time (on press posters, etc.), immediately made you feel like you were transported into a subculture of something far out of this world. A fascination that stirred around well into the new millennium, it was in October of 2000 when Orgy plotted another impact with their highly anticipated follow up, Vapor Transmission. An album that had massive buzz surrounding it – and more than likely one that placed a ton of pressure on the band themselves – Vapor Transmission delivered in many facets of the word. Very much a continuation of the trajectory Orgy began with Candyass, the new album featured a delightful collection of tunes that solidified that they were not a novelty act, but one with significant abilities, both as songwriters and atmosphere creators. Evident with tracks such as “Fiction (Dreams in Digital),” “Eva,” and “Opticon,” Vapor Transmission would peak at 16 on the Billboard 200 and eventually attain gold status.
A more than respectful way to follow up Candyass (an album which has attained platinum status), to Orgy’s dedicated following, Candyass and Vapor Transmissions are essential listens… even over two decades later. More than likely two albums which survived the physical format purge many music fans partook in at the onset of digital downloading, leading into the streaming age, both CD formats remain fixtures in many collections. This in mind, it comes with great excitement in 2024 to learn that both Candyass and Vapor Transmission have been re-released in a vinyl format. Arriving on February 2nd, the two new releases through Real Gone Music are fit with some interesting details that make them even more compelling to look into.
First and foremost, the obvious selling point here is that Candyass is now available in the vinyl format for the first time ever. Beyond this, each album is remastered and pressed in a pretty eye-gazing way. For Candyass, the remastering (done by Mike Milchner of Sonic Vision) is fresh, bright, and crisp. Something that makes for a lovely listening experience, making it pop even more is a high quality 180 gram clear with red and yellow swirl pressing; or fire orange color if you go to Best Buy. Really nicely done, it is also presented in a grand gatefold packaging with all the original art.
Then, for Vapor Transmission, you also get a remastered copy (done by Milchner as well), but this time including “The Spectrum.” A bonus, originally “The Spectrum” was exclusive to the first 1,000 copies of the CD edition put out all the way back in 2004; that was until the digital release of it in December of 2020. A really cool bonus for collectors, Vapor Transmission is also given a color treatment pressing; this time in red and yellow “plasma,” or purple swirl if you go to Best Buy. Matched with pristine sound, as well as the original art in a gatefold package, it is the perfect sidekick to the Candyass re-release.
Overall, when looking at the journey of Orgy – past, present, and future – Candyass and Vapor Transmission are pinnacle points in time. Aware of this history and recognizing it, Orgy (currently led by Jay Gordon, along with a lineup of Bassist Nic Speck, plus Guitarists Carlton Bost and Ilia Yordanov) are set to tour April into May celebrating 25 years of Candyass. A run that kicks off on April 11th, before ending May 25th, they will co-headline with Cold on each of the dates. With that, the next question many might ask is – when can we expect a new, proper Orgy album? While that remains to be seen, they have put out several stand alone singles over the last decade since 2015’s Talk Sick EP. So, only time will tell what is next for Orgy in the way of a new album. Thankfully there is a tour, plus these two new must have vinyl edition releases of both Candyass and Vapor Transmission.

Ahhh I don't want to be rude and if Amir identifies as a famine entity feel free to ignore this, but if they mainly identify as a masculine entity (as I assume since I rarely get on Tumblr! Sorry of it's wrong! Demon genitalia is not my strongest suit 😭) Then their designation would be incubus instead of succubus.
Anyway, I've backed the Kickstarter and everyone should too, and don't read my msg if I'm making a buffoon out of myself YIKES
(They can identify as whatever they want I'm just being nerdy I love all of the stinky demons I will give my left nut for them <3)
I also just realized I wrote "famine entity" instead of feminine, but. We thirsty for 'em so we're keeping it unedited.
LMFAO no worries! I actually get asked this a lot so I totally don't mind answering- someone else is probably wondering why he's a succubus too!
The short answer is: the contextual succubus vibes and the image it conjures up just suits him better.
The in narrative answer is: Amir is technically a kind of qarinah, another night time bed-sharing demon that is pretty similar to a bog-standard succubus. In the world of TCM, however, when you get turned into a demon, there's no one to explain what you are. Succubus is the word Amir chooses to describe himself basically as a vibes thing. Similarly, Mori could just as easily call himself a werecat but instead uses bakeneko as a nod to monster stories he heard as a kid.
The longer nerd answer is: So neither word was used in English until the late 14th century but the latin roots show some critical differences between them. The word Succubus is two separate Latin words, succuba, meaning lover, and sub (under) + cubare (to lie) whose differentiation blurred over time and became the single word we know today. The word incubus has more muddled origins and loses its succuba/lover context to simply be in (on) + cubare (to lie) which is also the exact same etymological path the word incubate comes from and I don't really love that associated with his super sexual nature just as kind of a personal thing.
Another complication is that a few noted scholars of myth make the case that Incubi are strictly heterosexual and taking male victims is detrimental to them in some way and while this isn't a tremendously popular cultural paradigm these days, it just made the word harder to fit the vibe I wanted. In the sort of collective modern mind, there's also the hazy conception that Succubi are more prone to creating thralls with their powers and Incubi seek to make more demons by impregnating their victims.
These two reasons are a big part of what I felt "mismarketed" Amir and I didn't want to fight against deeply ingrained preconceptions by trying to trim up more subtle nuance to a word everyone is familiar with. So as a designer and contemplating all of these angles, I felt it was important to distance Amir from some of the expectation we have about either side of the horny night demon coin. And since he fits the succubus vibe much more closely than the incubus, I decided to go with that wording instead.

Tumblr media
Just a normal meeting in the Castle.
"I'd like to try and reach some sort of resolve today. Toshiro brought up expanding a bit of the Forest into the Desert area? Spreading some green over there. Which would involve talking with Eric and.... the gremline."
Tumblr media
The silence that follows his words are deafening and it feels more like he's talking to the wall. Akira is taking notes at least, makign little side ideas that they'd probably go over later. That was at least reassuring, someone was listening. Amir seemed to be in thought, probably debating how well that would even go. Artemis likes Amir, which means they'd take him and use him as a distraction while they hold a meeting with Eric. He hates when they do that.
Toshiro seemed pleased he was listened to, but his attention was focused across the room on Wyatt who seemed to be attempting to set Luka on fire. Both of them on opposite sides of the room, it's impressive they've made it even this far in the meeting without blood already being shed. Hiroki runs his gaze across the broken, fractured rather pathetic seeming court he has and wonders again how they manage to get anything done.
"Thoughts...?" He tries.
"We could send Luka over there. Monsters get along well with other Monsters." And now Hiroki wants to smash his head against the throne when Wyatt picks a fight. At least they started some sort of discussion over this?
Luka takes it in stride. "I like Eric. I wouldn't mind talking to him." He shrugs a bit, gaze flicking across Wyatt as if he's dismissing him to look at Hiroki. "Akira will just need to write up some pointers." Talking is not his strong suit.
Tumblr media
Hiroki thinks they've made half a progress before Wyatt opened his mouth again. "Psychopaths seek similar company. Monsterious shitbags are drawn to other fuck heads. Of course you'd get along with a demonic bastard like whatever the fuck Eric is."
"Then I suppose as the local witch with wide open legs would be drawn to incubus?" Luka asks, blinking at Wyatt.
Silence perminantes for a while, everyone staring wide eyed at Luka and then look over at Wyatt. It's like watching a game of tennis, wondedring who was going to strike next, who was going to gut the next person that speaks. It takes a minute, perhaps Wyatt either seething or testing the waters. And then he moves.
Wyatt raises his arm up and throws his hand across his body, tossing a whip of energy at Luka. The Vampire tilted his head to the side, being just grazed by the wave of magic, and his bright red gaze opens to look at the Witch. And the chaos finally broke out. Wyatt gathered up more energy and tossed another whip at Luka, throwing his magic at the Vampire in the hopes of something landing in between one of his movements.
Luka plays with him, like teasing a dog with a favorite toy. Each attack missing him with a hairs breath as he moves only the required amount to dodge the attack. It's a game they've seen before, and one Luka grows tired of very quickly. When the next attack misses he moves all the way into Wyatt's space and raises his hand up. The back of Luka's hand connects with Wyatt's cheek and throws the Witch across the room into the wall.
Hiroki stands but doesn't move any closer, watching Luka with worry that today might be the day he kills Wyatt.
The Vampire tugs on the bottom of his glove, pulling it more into place as he walks toward the Witch. The temperature in the room drops, an icy chill settling around them as the sound of his boots click with each step. Ice prints settle on the ground as he walks, his magic seeping out of him like a leak.
Tumblr media
"I've put men 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪 ten feet in the ground. Do you think I'll 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 and let you do whatever you want? That I'll just take it and not 𝘿𝙀𝙁𝙀𝙉𝘿 myself?" He stopped in front of Wyatt and settled his red gaze on the bleeding man. "Wake up. I'm older and stronger than you, Witch." And he will put him down.

Hi, I am looking for a fic where Phil is a succubus (incubus?) of some sort. He falls in love with Clint, and from that moment on, if he doesn't feed on Clint's love, he slowly starves. I remember Phil doesn't believe that Clint could ever want or love him, so he locks himself up and prepares to die. Of course, Clint figures it out and goes to him and they end up together. Does anyone remember this one? Thanks for the help!

Oh, hey Goody-Goody~
I'm so glad I was able to finally catch a break to send you a message. I've missed you so dearly, my goody two shoes, so I just couldn't resist the temptation! But when can I ever resist you?
I hope you don't mind me sending you little texts over here. Would you be mad about it? I like how your nose bridge furrows when you're pissed, that's really cute.
Be ready to see me here more often, because I plan on messing around until i get bored.
Missing you dearly,
― Amir Amator, your favorite sin.
Hey, you menace (I say this affectionately),
What have you been up to that’s got you so busy? I could really do with a study partner. By that, of course, I mean I’d appreciate having a body double who’s also down to rub my shoulders for me. Classes have only just started and they’re getting intense.
I was the one who asked for your number in the first place, Amir. If I minded, I wouldn’t have done it in the first place. It’ll take more than that to annoy me, especially when it gives me a break from this fucking assignment I’m working on.
If by “messing around” you mean alternating between flirting with me and blushing at the things I say, go for it. I do actually appreciate your company, you know.
If you miss me, literally teleport over. Distract me from my work (non-sexually, before you can even make the joke I know you’re thinking up).

Framework And Fascinations With A Flirty Incubus
The answer to ‘Which Chapter Next?’ was a very emphatic “AMIR!!” which honestly, I’m so glad y’all picked this!! Because I’ve had Talent Is Relative brainrot ever since I established the dynamics of it in my mind. It’s probably the storyline with the most potential chapters in my mind so far 😅 
Cw/tw: this chapter contains mild sexual references throughout! If that’s not your thing or makes you uncomfy, then just scroll right along, friendo~
Also, small side note, the reader character here is heavily implied to be demisexual or on the grey-ace spectrum. 
With all that out of the way, here we are! Chapter four, Layered Realms part four, Talent Is Relative part one.
Framework And Fascinations With A Flirty Incubus
Third person POV, focused on Amir.
Amir kicked his foot out and leaned against the wall. He was loitering in the Demworth’s Institute of Command Education (D.I.C.E.) office, hoping to grab a quick snack. An educational institution’s student help office might seem like an odd place for an incubus to look for a meal, at least at first glance. But the help desk attendant here was hot, and almost every student who came in saw him and let off a wave of energy that Amir could and would gladly and quickly consume. 
Ting!
The bell on the door rang, and someone carrying a massive pile of paperwork stumbled into the office and dumped it on the desk. Not even sparing a second glance for the attendant, they started sorting through it while rambling to him.
“—and I filled out the form for the History Of Manufactured Command class as well, but it wouldn’t scan into my computer. Everything’s been acting weird recently and so finally I just decided to bring all of the physical copies in, just to make sure. I’m so sorry, I know it’s a lot of extra work—“ the attendant sighed. He pointed over to the other side of the room.
“You’re all good. The whole system is kind of fucked right now, they just tried to update it. Go over to that table to sort through it. Make copies of the ones you need. Take your time, if you have to. Just remember the deadline is Monday, so don’t push it out any further than that.” They sighed, and Amir could feel the wave of relief crashing over them. 
“Thank you so much— I think I can get it all done today.” They gathered up their things again and plopped it all over onto the side table. Amir continued to look them over. Their massive wave of relieved energy had drawn his attention to their magical signature. It was oddly… sparky. They must be electricity affiliated. But beyond that they were— tangled, somehow, like a dark shadow had been cast over all their energy. He pressed against the wall with his foot to push himself forward, and approached them. 
“It’s late in the summer to be doing this much paperwork,” he murmured. They glanced up.
“I had all this shit done at the start of this summer, but now I’ve decided to change a bunch of stuff. So yeah,” they said absently, immediately turning their head back down to their forms. They had looked at him. Full in the face. In all his glory. And not even a single spark of attraction had flitted through their signature. Interest? Yes. Mild curiosity? Yes. But attraction? No. Maybe they just weren’t into boys?
“What has you so down? Your signature is practically exuding dark feelings right now.” He cocked his head at them curiously. They shrugged bitterly.
“Boyfriend just dumped me.” Abrupt and to the point— and they did like boys. Hm. Curious. 
“I could take your mind off that, if you’d like…” his tone was sultry as he traced a finger down their arm. They laughed. Good-naturedly, but still! 
“No thanks, pretty boy— I’ve got a lot to get done, and plus I don’t do the whole ‘fucking random people I just met’ thing. Shocking, I know. How will society ever get over the scandal?” They joked, but he could see the flicker of defensiveness in their signature. Hm… some knowledge to tuck away for later.
“I could change that~” They wrinkled their nose.
“Hmm. No.” Amir raised his eyebrows at them.
“You don’t think I could?” Did they know nothing about demons?
“Oh I know you could. I just don’t think you would.” He stared at them.
“What makes you think that?” They shrugged.
“Eh, just a hunch of mine.”
“And do you judge all demons by your little… hunches? Because if so, let me know how that works out for you, Goody-goody.” He sighed and placed his hands on their shoulders. “Okay if I smush you?”
“If by that you mean rest your entire upper body weight on my shoulders then… sure.” He sank down onto them and plopped his chin on the top of their head.
“What are you working on?” A burst of excitement flashed through their signature.
“Laying out the framework for my future.”
***
Goody-goody’s POV.
The demon lifted his chin from it’s place digging into my scalp and cocked his head at me. He did that a lot. It was kind of cute, like a puppy.
“Now you’ve got me interested, Goody-goody. What’s this future that’s got you so excited?” I smiled.
“Well I— hm. Let’s just say that while I may have natural command, and I may be electricity affiliated, neither of those are really… my strong point? And something came up that’s made it so I can switch my classes to manufactured command ones, which means I’ll be doing a whole lot better, and learning a whole lot more.”
“If you don’t mind my asking, what changed?” He said, settling back onto my shoulders and head. I squirmed slightly. I wasn’t exactly willing to share just yet that I had wanted to take manufactured command classes since the beginning, but had changed my mind for my boyfriend, Brook. Since we could both take natural command classes, he had convinced me that we should sign up for the same classes so that we could spend more of our time in the day around each other. And he certainly wasn’t interested in taking manufactured command classes. He was a powerful nature affiliate, with tons of potential, all-but nationally ranked on his plant and earth magic— unlike my puny sparks. But after he broke up with me, saying that he wasn’t emotionally ready for a relationship where he was doing the brunt of the work and compromise, I had no reason to stay in those classes. The incubus gripped my shoulders gently, pulling me back from my thoughts and into the real world again.
“Never mind, Goody-goody,” he whispered. That was odd— oh, fuck, right, demon. Could sense my emotions. 
“S-sorry about that—“
“Don’t apologize for feeling things strongly. ‘Those who have felt the deepest grief are best able to experience supreme happiness.’ That’s an Alexandre Dumas quote.” 
“Why do you know that?” I laughed a little incredulously. He snorted.
“I’ve regularly visited the human realm for decades, little Good-goody. I know my way around.” 
“Would you stop calling me that?” I laughed. 
“Maybe when you prove to me it’s not true, Goody-Two-Shoes,” he sing-songed. Oh I liked this guy. 
“Pffft— maybe buy me dinner first. Or, y’know, just buy me dinner— no fucking required. That’d be awesome too. College fees are a bitch, after all.” I rolled my eyes and went back to my paperwork. His weight on my shoulders was… comforting. Grounding. I liked it. I hoped he didn’t stop— because I was going to need some grounding to get through this load of shit. Especially in my current emotional state. Oh, he was so warm. I scooted back into him a little bit. 
“‘Earliest Origins of Manufactured Command’? That would take you back to the history of fae and demon orthography, wouldn’t it?”
“Speak English,” I grumbled. He chuckled into my hair. 
“Orthography is the study of words— letters and alphabets.” 
“Ohh— I remember now,” I shuffled through to the next page. How many fucking times were they gonna make me sign my name? 
“Well, now I have the advantage on you,” he murmured. 
“What?”
“I know your name but you don’t know mine,” he pointed to my paper.
“You can remedy that. Oh, also, that class will in fact be including studying ancient fae and demon runes and alphabet and such, and how they changed over time. So yeah, that’s gonna be fascinating,” I murmured. I could feel him smile against my hair, and he started pressing gently into my shoulders again.
“My name,” he said as I practically melted into the massage (good grief, was I really that touch starved?) 
“Is Amator. Amir Amator.” 
“It’s a pretty name,” I breathed. My shoulders were sore. 
“You know, you have enough knots in these shoulders of yours to very securely tie someone to a bed.” He murmured in my ear. I rushed a hand up over my mouth to hide my surprised laugh. 
“Dude, we’re supposed to be at least somewhat quiet in here, especially when there’s people working on stuff. Don’t make me laugh!” He smirked.
“Not the usual way I have people begging me not to make them make noise, but I’ll take it.”
“Oh good grief—“ I turned back to my papers. Well. This was shaping up to be less boring and stressful than expected. I had already made faster progress than I had thought I would.
“Maybe I’ll actually manage to make it out of here before— oh, shit.” I said as it started to pour rain outside.
“You’re fucking early!” I whisper-shouted at the rain. Amir stifled a laugh. 
“This is gonna be a nightmare to drive in!” 
“I love the rain,” he mused. “Also, the technically correct way to phrase that would be ‘this is going to be a nightmare in which to drive’ or ‘driving in this is going to be a nightmare’. Don’t end a sentence with a preposition.”
“Mm, go fuck yourself. ‘Sides, you don’t have to travel home in this, you can just teleport.” I muttered. He let out a sultry chuckle. Very different from the way he’d laughed before. I didn’t like that one as much, it sounded fake.
“Only if you watch m—“ 
“Hush,” I snorted. “Not the time.” 
“Fine,” he huffed. “Also— why can’t you teleport?” I scoffed.
“Teleportation magic is hard, even for commanders with actual talent. I’m nowhere near that level and I never will be. I can barely make static. Maybe if I actually make it to my fourth year in manufactured studies I’ll learn it that way.” After several beats of silence and two more forms filled out I asked
“Why do you love the rain?” He shrugged.
“It doesn’t rain in the demon realm. When I first got arrived in your realm, an old best friend of mine was leading me, and it was raining. I was… awestruck. And my friend explained to me what it was, and why it happened, but I was still just… so entranced. So they humored me. And we ran around and shouted and danced in the rain. I suppose some part of my brain still associates rain with all those good feelings.” Oh dear that was adorable. My heart was melting. 
“And speaking of good feelings—“ 
“No-ho-ho-hope!” I leaned my head back and looked into his eyes.
“Stahp.” I bundled up my papers and stood to go to the copy machine, then dropped my forms off at the desk and traipsed back over to where Amir was still standing. He smirked at me.
“I’m an incubus. How am I, in good faith, supposed to ‘stahp’ as you say?” I frowned at him as we walked outside, standing under the shelter of the awning.
“Stop that.”
“Stop being a devilishly handsome, incredibly charming, master of flirting, tease? I’m sorry, Goody-goody, but no can d—“
“Stop objectifying yourself.” He stared at me with confused eyes.
“You’re not… just an incubus. I mean, that’s a part of your identity, and it’s a good thing that it’s a part of you that makes you happy and that you’re not ashamed of, but you’re also just… a person. A person who gives good cuddles, and has his ears pierced, and also looks like he had a failed piercing when he was younger, and quotes Alexandre Dumas, and corrects peoples’ grammar, and likes Helluva Boss—“ I pointed to his pendant, which had the book that the Helluva Boss characters used to travel from one world to another hanging from the end of it, “and loves the rain and dances with his best friend and smells like strawberries and lavender.” He was looking at me like I’d grown a second head. I coughed and turned away.
“S- um. Sorry about that. I guess that got… too personal.” Did I just mention how he had smelled? What was wrong with me? I should go. As I started to walk away, he grabbed my wrist. I raised my eyebrows at him.
“It wasn’t… too personal. You— I’ve known you for half an hour and you just pointed out things that people I’ve known for months never cared to notice.”
“Oh. Uh. Okay.” I looked him over for a second. Well, after all… why not?
“Can I get your number?” An involuntary, incredulous smile began spreading over his face.
“You may.” It became a shit-eating grin.
“Oh fuck you,” I laughed.
“You may do that, too!”
“Eat shit!”
“I wouldn’t recommend it.” I was gasping with laughter at this point.
“Oh just give me your phone, you weirdo.” I panted between involuntarily giggles and snorts. He handed it over. I grinned at the elaborately decorated Verosika Mayday case.
“Nice phone case. How exactly has no-one noticed you like Helluva Boss??” He laughed.
“It’s a mystery, Goody-goody.” I typed my number in and named myself ‘Frustrated Paperwork Person’. Under companies I put ‘Helluva Boss Fandom.’ 
“I’m hilarious, I know. Ooh! The rain stopped for a bit! Catch you later, alligator!!” I dashed out towards my car as fast as I could to make the most of the lull.
***
If they had looked back, they wouldn’t have seen much. Just an incubus looking so lovestruck that Cupid himself would have bodied them out of jealousy. Who was so out of it that his glamour spell had fallen away, revealing his horns and his tail, which was suspiciously curling and uncurling like a contented cat’s.
I. FUCKING. LOVED. WRITING. THIS!!!!!
Amir and Goody-goody’s dynamic is just food for my soul, and it makes me so incredibly happy. This is definitely my favorite chapter I’ve written so far, and I’m honestly so proud of it! So I hope you all enjoyed as much as I did!
Also, I have a TON going on this upcoming week, so it’s unlikely that any new chapters of Layered Realms or any new fics are gonna go up over that time period. I’ll probably still be hangin out, making silly little shitposts and reblogging stuff and so on and so forth, but likely don’t expect anything too coherent.

Framework And Fascinations With A Flirty Incubus
The answer to ‘Which Chapter Next?’ was a very emphatic “AMIR!!” which honestly, I’m so glad y’all picked this!! Because I’ve had Talent Is Relative brainrot ever since I established the dynamics of it in my mind. It’s probably the storyline with the most potential chapters in my mind so far 😅 
Cw/tw: this chapter contains mild sexual references throughout! If that’s not your thing or makes you uncomfy, then just scroll right along, friendo~
Also, small side note, the reader character here is heavily implied to be demisexual or on the grey-ace spectrum. 
With all that out of the way, here we are! Chapter four, Layered Realms part four, Talent Is Relative part one.
Framework And Fascinations With A Flirty Incubus
Third person POV, focused on Amir.
Amir kicked his foot out and leaned against the wall. He was loitering in the Demworth’s Institute of Command Education (D.I.C.E.) office, hoping to grab a quick snack. An educational institution’s student help office might seem like an odd place for an incubus to look for a meal, at least at first glance. But the help desk attendant here was hot, and almost every student who came in saw him and let off a wave of energy that Amir could and would gladly and quickly consume. 
Ting!
The bell on the door rang, and someone carrying a massive pile of paperwork stumbled into the office and dumped it on the desk. Not even sparing a second glance for the attendant, they started sorting through it while rambling to him.
“—and I filled out the form for the History Of Manufactured Command class as well, but it wouldn’t scan into my computer. Everything’s been acting weird recently and so finally I just decided to bring all of the physical copies in, just to make sure. I’m so sorry, I know it’s a lot of extra work—“ the attendant sighed. He pointed over to the other side of the room.
“You’re all good. The whole system is kind of fucked right now, they just tried to update it. Go over to that table to sort through it. Make copies of the ones you need. Take your time, if you have to. Just remember the deadline is Monday, so don’t push it out any further than that.” They sighed, and Amir could feel the wave of relief crashing over them. 
“Thank you so much— I think I can get it all done today.” They gathered up their things again and plopped it all over onto the side table. Amir continued to look them over. Their massive wave of relieved energy had drawn his attention to their magical signature. It was oddly… sparky. They must be electricity affiliated. But beyond that they were— tangled, somehow, like a dark shadow had been cast over all their energy. He pressed against the wall with his foot to push himself forward, and approached them. 
“It’s late in the summer to be doing this much paperwork,” he murmured. They glanced up.
“I had all this shit done at the start of this summer, but now I’ve decided to change a bunch of stuff. So yeah,” they said absently, immediately turning their head back down to their forms. They had looked at him. Full in the face. In all his glory. And not even a single spark of attraction had flitted through their signature. Interest? Yes. Mild curiosity? Yes. But attraction? No. Maybe they just weren’t into boys?
“What has you so down? Your signature is practically exuding dark feelings right now.” He cocked his head at them curiously. They shrugged bitterly.
“Boyfriend just dumped me.” Abrupt and to the point— and they did like boys. Hm. Curious. 
“I could take your mind off that, if you’d like…” his tone was sultry as he traced a finger down their arm. They laughed. Good-naturedly, but still! 
“No thanks, pretty boy— I’ve got a lot to get done, and plus I don’t do the whole ‘fucking random people I just met’ thing. Shocking, I know. How will society ever get over the scandal?” They joked, but he could see the flicker of defensiveness in their signature. Hm… some knowledge to tuck away for later.

How To Become A Demonologist? | Guide to Become a Certified Demonologist
Want to know how to become a demonoligist? Curious about what they really do and how you can make a career out of it?
In this post, we will give you all the answers that you might have wondered about.
But, we’ll start at the beginning.
What is Demonology?
Demonology is the study of demons or the beliefs about demons.
With the understanding of demons comes the methods of how to destroy, them, or prevent them from doing harm.
Demons can be beings that are nonhuman, human, souls, or other types of spirits.
Studying and learning about demonology allowed for the explanation of diseases and events that could not be explained naturally.
Many say the art of demonology first began in the early 15th century but started to wane in the late 17th century.
However, belief in demons goes back many millennia.
The Zoroastrian faith taught that there were over three thousand demons.
Some of those demons had certain responsibilities like encouraging disasters such as war, starvation, sickness and more.
Students of demonology have persisted throughout history and are still around today.
Teachings Might Have Changed But
Their learnings have changed to accommodate the world around them, but the idea is the same.
The fight against demons and related beings will never end as long as humans exist on Earth.
Though demonologists have become less known to the public, that does not mean they aren’t important and working behind the scenes.
Demonology Across History
To fully appreciate demonology, it is important to understand the history from around the world and different time periods.
Learning not only about the demons themselves and how to defeat them, but the people who came before make for a well-rounded demonologist.
In between lessons about the demons, take the time to concentrate on a country at a time; appreciation for what historical figures did to battle against demons will provide inspiration and motivation.
It is also important to know that demons across cultures have different names, yet they may be the same being as one from somewhere else.
Knowing all of the names a demon can go by may be the most challenging aspect of demonology.
The Salem Witch Hunts
Demonology was around and thriving during the Salem witch trials and it contributed to the fierceness of the witch hunt.
People used the beliefs of the demonologists and their own superstitions, twisting them together so they could go on witch hunts.
While demonology does include the study of witches, it is unlikely that most of the people killed during this time were witches.
They were innocent people that witch hunters used false demonology information to kill them.
With the rise of more understanding during the early 17th century, witch hunting subsided as people became more understanding of the world around them.
Demonologists faded into obscurity, but their teachings remained to guide and protect those around them.
Ancient Mesopotamia
The Mesopotamian people believed that the underworld was home to many demons.
Those demons were often referred to as “offspring of the Aral.”
These demons had the ability to leave the underworld and harm the living on earth.
To make fighting such demons easier, they were categorized into groups and learned about.
One such demon class was called the Galla.
These demons had the purpose of kidnapping the living and taking them back to the underworld.
In texts, it is often said that they number in the sevens.
Sometimes these demons could be benevolent, but it was most often that they would take a living person back with them.
Demonology and Islam
Islam is one of the hardest countries to learn about regarding demonology.
There has been attempts to classify their demons and the creatures called jinn, but it hasn’t been universally successful.
Different areas of Islam call the demons by different names.
Their demons are also not always spiritual, but can be physically present.
This combination makes it hard to understand the Islamic demons; weeks or months could be spent on this culture alone.
The most well-known classification of demons in Islam was created by Jahiz:
Amir: A jinni who lives with humans in their homes.
Shaitan: An evil jinn who creates insanity and illnesses.
Marid: A jinn who wishes to steal from heaven.
Bu’Bu: A jinn who scares kids.
Ifrit: The most powerful and notorious jinn. Sometimes is a Shaitan.
Angel: A jinni who has no evil in them and is only good.
Jinns of Islam
A Jinn is used to describe a group of beings who are invisible.
These beings may be spiritual or physical, but typically they are not able to be seen or felt by people unless the Jinn wishes it.
Si’lah: A female demon who seduces and kills men.
Similar to a Succubus.
Qarinah: A demon who is known for strangling kids and dragging them to the underworld.
Types of Demons
The first step to becoming a certified demonologist is to understand what the different types of demons are.
They are usually classified into a few different areas.
Knowing those areas can mean the difference between successfully ridding an area of a demon or succumbing to it.
There are more nuanced classes than the ones listed below, but these are a good starting point.
Angels that fell from grace.
Evil familiars or genii
Spirits resulting from a cult or worship
Ghosts or other evil beings
Notably, souls that inhabit another world are excluded from the list of demons.
Demons may also appear solid, but it is less common.
Succubi and Incubus, demons that originated from the Middle Ages were clearly solid, yet they are spiritual.
Vampires sometimes fall under the class of a demon, with types that only have a head with entrails, attacking the living at night.
Demonology Is Complicated.
There are rules for what is and isn’t a demon, but sometimes those rules become blurred and bent in certain situations.
It is important to understand the rules and obey them in most circumstances, but knowing when to accept change is also important.
Good Readings to Become a Certified Demonologist
Choosing the best books to learn is important.
If lucky, there would be a learned demonologist available to pass on their years of knowledge.
But more likely, it will be up to the student to study and learn everything they want to know.
There are plenty of books out there about demons, witches, and other creatures.
However, a lot of those books are poor, with misleading or false information.
The authors may have good intentions, but they did not do the best research.
The three books below are a good starting point to learn about demonology.
All of the authors are respected, well known, and did the research before writing about demons.

Certified Demonologist Online Schools
Paralearning.org has a diploma course in modern demonology which can be a first step for you to dig into the subject.
The course isn’t that expensive and should give you a base to stand on.
If you feel that this is something that you want to develop a career around, then you should take every opportunity to read about the subject.
Most Demonologists are self-learned and your knowledge of the matter has to (at some time) come from practicing in the real world.
Only then will you learn how to deal with real demons.
Conclusion
Don’t limit yourself. seek out more books than just the ones listed.
Harder to find and rare books from history will have knowledge that most probably aren’t aware of.
If you study a particular area of demonology, such as witchcraft, find books that concentrate on that.
But even if you concentrate on one aspect of demonology, become well-rounded.
Lacking in knowledge will only hurt you further down the line.
Find groups of demonologists and talk to them, whether it is physically or online.
Spread knowledge and understanding of different cultures.
Even if you don’t agree with someone’s opinion, keep an open mind.
They could be correct and have more experience in the area that they are talking about.
Combine studying with practical experience and the path to becoming a demonologist will come easier.

How To Become A Demonologist? | Guide to Become a Certified Demonologist
Want to know how to become a demonoligist? Curious about what they really do and how you can make a career out of it?
In this post, we will give you all the answers that you might have wondered about.
But, we’ll start at the beginning.
What is Demonology?
Demonology is the study of demons or the beliefs about demons. With the understanding of demons comes the methods of how to destroy, them, or prevent them from doing harm. Demons can be beings that are nonhuman, human, souls, or other types of spirits. Studying and learning about demonology allowed for the explanation of diseases and events that could not be explained naturally. Many say the art of demonology first began in the early 15th century but started to wane in the late 17th century. However, belief in demons goes back many millennia. The Zoroastrian faith taught that there were over three thousand demons. Some of those demons had certain responsibilities like encouraging disasters such as war, starvation, sickness and more. Students of demonology have persisted throughout history and are still around today.
Teachings Might Have Changed But
Their learnings have changed to accommodate the world around them, but the idea is the same. The fight against demons and related beings will never end as long as humans exist on Earth. Though demonologists have become less known to the public, that does not mean they aren’t important and working behind the scenes.
Demonology Across History
To fully appreciate demonology, it is important to understand the history from around the world and different time periods.
Learning not only about the demons themselves and how to defeat them, but the people who came before make for a well-rounded demonologist.
In between lessons about the demons, take the time to concentrate on a country at a time; appreciation for what historical figures did to battle against demons will provide inspiration and motivation. It is also important to know that demons across cultures have different names, yet they may be the same being as one from somewhere else. Knowing all of the names a demon can go by may be the most challenging aspect of demonology.
The Salem Witch Hunts
Demonology was around and thriving during the Salem witch trials and it contributed to the fierceness of the witch hunt.
People used the beliefs of the demonologists and their own superstitions, twisting them together so they could go on witch hunts.
While demonology does include the study of witches, it is unlikely that most of the people killed during this time were witches. They were innocent people that witch hunters used false demonology information to kill them. With the rise of more understanding during the early 17th century, witch hunting subsided as people became more understanding of the world around them.
