Lightning Blinked, Surprised. Wait, That Was It? All This Demon Wanted Was For A Bad Deal With Angel

Lightning blinked, surprised. Wait, that was it? All this demon wanted was for a bad deal with Angel to be lifted? He felt excitement thrumming through him. That was possible! Not only that, that would be easy!

He could spend a few weeks bothering Angel about it and the man would eventually cave. And Lewin would have a powerful new friend.

"You've got it," he grinned.

Lewin was indeed correct. Kuraokami already had a suitable vessel, plenty of food, and was making friends. Though when asked what he would want. There was one thing that came to mind. A worry that has lingered for a while now. Perhaps this exorcist was the one to resolve it. ".. You work with the current Paladin, do you not? Arthur, the loud one." The demon looked away from Lewin, out at the scenery before him. He knew the two worked together because Nix shared as such. "He and my daughter made a deal when Rin lost control of himself.. Long story short, she agreed to let this Arthur put an execution order upon her in exchange for leniency. If she should lose control, he gets to carry out the execution.. Get that order lifted and you shall have my contract."

We come and go as we please. We will show up if we desire to. You can certainly ask for us, but we are under no obligation to answer. You can ask for none of us, and we are under no obligation to respect your wishes.

There is definitely a warning burrowed somewhere in that. "Fair enough!" he grins.

"I think that's a good amount of research for now. Gotta process it all y'know. You sure you don't want anything in return?"

He's still pouting.

"Sure." Mumblegrumble

"Don't look so sour about it, my father isn't exactly easy to please."

"I saved you some soup if that makes you feel better."

You've gave me more than enough. And technically speaking, none of this can truly substain me. It's just a thought, untangible, in a way. It's a kind one though, that is appreciated regardless!

"Noted!" Huh, the others seemed quite happy with the snacks. Maybe just the taste?

"See you around then!" he grins before he starts packing up.

What Does Your Heart Look Like?

a compass that doesn’t waver

You are someone who is certain of what you want. Maybe you always have been, or maybe you made a discovery that you haven’t been able to tear your eyes away from. Your heart is set and certain. You fight endlessly for your goals. Above all else, you know who you are and what you are trying to achieve. Just be careful not to tear yourself or others apart in pursuit of your ideals.

dunks him hard enough it could be borderline considered waterboarding

Lewin doesn't even manage to register what happens before he's forced underwater.

The water he inhales is soapy and unpleasant and it takes him a second to find the bottom to stand up.

He hates baths! He HATES baths!

"Sylphs," he manages after coughing out the water. The little wind demons appear and circle around him protectively as he crawls out of the bath, thoroughly soaked.

If they grey demon tries again he will send the sylphs after it.
