(( no judgment from lucifer. they're old. they have to find something to keep themselves occupied in between tempting and tormenting humans. ))

1:30 then?

[ if sivan could fill more of his time with tempting and tormenting humans, he absolutely would. but he can't. he has to be smart about it and torment humans in moderation lest some pesky hunter catch on and come after him ]

1:30 is perfect! Then you can hear firsthand about all the fun I've been having up here~

[ oh he knows that lucifer would be well acquainted with his various misdeeds already, but that doesn't meant he can't talk about them too ]

(( any pesky hunter or one in particular? ))

I'm intrigued by this knitting.

[ both! one pesky hunter in particular, but it does extend to other hunters as well. if he gets anyone's attention before he's ready, he'd prefer it be that one pesky hunter. the other would just get in the way! ]

Would you believe that I only got frustrated, gave up, and swore I'd never touch a pair of knitting needles again (except maybe to stab someone with them) 37 times?? [ no exaggeration. he actually kept count ]

I made a sock. You want it? I can bring it for you tomorrow.

I'll take your sock. On the condition that you promise to make me another.

I'll make you another sock. Scout's honour!

[ now, he's never been a scout, but someone he's been at some point probably was, right? ]

I'll treasure them as my own children.

Specifically like your favourite children, right?? Not like children who you might be not so secretly ashamed of?

You know, the kind of children that come from a hook up with someone you think is a total 10 the night before but then you see her again in the harsh light of day and she's actually a -6 but whatever because you'll never see her again, no one has to know that you fucked a a swamp monster. But then 9 months later, Shrek comes knocking on your door holding a baby that looks like a potato that's been out in the sun for 4 years and you remember what you did and you throw up in your mouth a little because now you're connected to The Thing for life now even if you never see her again after this. Which you don't, because you're someone who has eyes.

But you still always kept one eye on the creepy little cave troll. But then they don't even have the decency to at least be smart. Zero redeeming qualities! Which makes the shame of your genetics being a part of that little science experiment gone wrong really set in.

Don't treat my socks like THOSE children.

(( Very specific story, bro. You speaking from experience? ))

Even that child is a treasure to me. We are each valuable in our own unique ways.

[ look he's done some things while in human bodies that he's not proud of. he doesn't remember if that's one of them but it might be. and that possibility keeps him awake at night. there might be a stupid potato out in the world because of him! ]

You're a better man that I, Stanny! Personally I don't think they'd even be valuable as a murder victim but that's just the difference between you and me!

(( Wouldn't the stupid potato child be more a result of the genetics of whatever body Sivan was possessing at the time? You're off the hook, Sivan! ))

Perhaps I merely have a different perspective. Wouldn't the world be awfully dull if everyone was the same?

[ true, but he'd still feel at least partly responsible for bringing another stupid potato into the world. he'd be the reason why the possessed person got with the stupid potato bearer in the first place.

so like, 0.001% responsibility. actually no. zero responsibility. if the person he possessed wasn't where he was in the first place, none of that would've happened.

hypothetically. he doesn't actually know if any of this happened, but it could've! ]

Oh it'd be super boring! I'd probably be home a lot more though. Possession just wouldn't be as fun. It'd be EASIER but not fun, you know? One of my favourite parts is trying to go unnoticed by the loved ones, but there's no challenge in it if everyone is the same. I like a good challenge!

That is supremely creepy (affectionate).

I thrive on creepy! :D

Know that it's appreciated.

I do know that it's appreciated. I wouldn't mind hearing it a little more often though, because I also thrive on praise and words of affirmation.

Note to self: The Great and Amazing Sivan's love language is praise and words of affirmation.

That's right. And a lot of it. I might die without a LOT of praise and/or words of affirmation. Is that really a chance you want to take???

Of course not!
But... shouldn't my praise and words of affirmation carry more weight?

Oh they totally do! That's why I'm still alive and kickin even though I haven't heard a single word of praise in the last 30 seconds!!

Shouldn't you begin working on the companion sock that I will love and cherish so long as exists because it was a gift from my most favorite demon?

MOST favourite?? Can I get that in writing? There are a few people who could do with seeing that.
Who says I'm not working on the sock while texting with you? I mean, I'm NOT, but I could've been!

Does this text not count?
What language would you like it written in?

Sorry but it doesn't count /enough/
Hmmmmm you know what? Whatever language you want. Follow your heart~

You'll have it tomorrow when we meet.
