[bearattack]

me too. seems like this place attracts them.

[eudaimonikos]

So are you a demon, also?

[She has seemed weirdly invested!

also due to rp time shenanigans lucifer may have told him this already]

[bearattack]

[MICHAEL, YOU CAN'T JUST ASK PEOPLE IF THEY'RE DEMONS.

Even if they're really obvious about it.

But fine. Fine.]

Don't spread it around.

[That's a yes.]

[eudaimonikos]

I'm not a total dick.

[Or he's trying not to be. This is an easy pitfall to avoid.]

It's your business if you want to tell people or not.
But I do think they'll probably find out eventually, and they'd be less upset if it came from you.

[bearattack]

It's really not that hard to hide, especially here. They all think I'm a human with superpowers.

[eudaimonikos]

Alright.

[He's lied to humans in all sorts of configurations before, and it's absolutely never worked out. But you do whatever you want, bud.]

But they've all been pretty okay with me. The only person who freaked out was that grass kid, and that was more about him thinking I might be a lich.

[bearattack]

I like the grass kid.

[And so, of course, she'll extra not tell him. She has no desire to freak Fern out.]

[eudaimonikos]

[awwww]

He doesn't mind demons at all.
Just didn't like me talking about my human suit.

[bearattack]

You're seriously possessing somebody?

[eudaimonikos]

Ew, no.
It's a skinsuit.

[He's fairly sure he can't actually do any possession, but even if he did, it probably involves being shut up with their organs, and? Gross?]

[bearattack]

That's still pretty ew. What do you look like in Hell?

[eudaimonikos]

Same, most of us use these at some point.
How else would we know what human pain is like?

[bearattack]

Observation?

[eudaimonikos]

Your managers sound incredibly lenient.

[bearattack]

I was a torturer. Human souls in pain were around me constantly.

[eudaimonikos]

Oh, I was too. That's why they tortured all of us first, when we were interns.

[...oh, wait, shit, that was probably fucked up, huh?]

I mean, they probably just liked doing that.

[bearattack]

[Interns? What the fuck.]

Your Hell doesn't sound anything like mine. Are you sure you're not screwing with me?

[eudaimonikos]

I'm not, but I have gotten that from a LOT of people.

[Seems like maybe his universe is some weird outlier?]

[bearattack]

You talk to Lucifer yet?

[eudaimonikos]

I have!
We don't have one of him either, just the Council.

[bearattack]

well, now i know for sure you're from an alternate universe. Lucifer would never be caught anywhere near a council.

[eudaimonikos]

Very wise of him!

[bearattack]

first time i've ever heard him called that.

[eudaimonikos]

I'm sure we can all agree that the true devil is bureaucracy.
