#🌙 belphegor | headcanon

[singthesongsofsin]

Belphegor's ability to attend is... nebulous, at best, because he is a Sin, but he's not from Pride, so this is more theoretical than anything, but I'm having a lot of fun figuring out what everyone would wear, so everyone gets fashion!

Like his typical formal wear, it's sort of treading the line between feminine and masculine, and it is comfortable so if he does fall asleep while there, he won't be in a terrible state. He's going for a very monochromatic fog theme.

To really sell the whole fog vibe, his mask has this gauzy veil attached, and the draping pieces of the mask, and the veil are meant to imply the lack of harsh edges. The same with the lace flats. He isn't wearing much jewelry, mostly just the ring, which is a moonstone, and thus looks a little bit like fog condensed.

I'm not certain how he's wearing his hair, but probably as a bun with the hair pins scattered in it.

@cannibalxroses for the Ball! As for the dates: @slothxdoc @themosthatedbeingg

a/n: I think I did my best here? On Ronove's part his chat says 'pretty' so I used that too. Tell me if I did something wrong and I'll rewrite it. Thank you so much again for requesting!~

Belphegor

🌙Too tired to even go out so PDA is not even an option. He also thinks PDA is too troublesome and just rather sleep than go out.

"Mmmm" Belphegor rubs his eyes and saw you getting ready to go outside. "Mmm where you goin?" He groggily asks "To the movies, do you wanna come?" You asked, hoping he'd come with you "Sure but I'm sure I'd fall asleep while watching it..." he fell asleep again, which made you smile, and covered him with a blanket.

🌙There are two places he'd like to sleep on, Beleth's bed and your lap. He's kinda like a cat, once he decides your lap is his pillow, it's all his. If gets the chance he will use it, no matter if its public or private. He won't care if you're shy enough to let him sleep, he sleeps where he wanna sleeps.

Belphie wakes up groggily, looking for you or Beleth. You were looking at the garden from the terrace when you saw him approaching you. "Hey... How's sleep?" "Good but...not good enough" he somehow looks at you with tired eyes, he was somehow looking at your thighs. He lied down the floor and used your lap as his pillow. "Belphie? What are you doing?!" "Mmm it looked soft...lemme sleep here" he slept for God knows how long, you desperately pleaded to Beleth to lift him up and place him back to the bed, because your legs are too numb. This cycle always repeats.

🌙He thinks being shy is a bit troublesome, he'd rather say something blunt rather than keep it (his own preference). However he thinks you're too cute whenever you're shy.

In one rare time he's awake to have a proper date with you, both of you went on a newly opened restaurant in Nilfheim. "Ill take whatever..." Belphegor yawns. Are you sure? Hmm... Okay one Devil carbonara and one 666 Devil steak" you ordered. "Good choice... I'll take the Devil Carbonara..." Belphie yawns again "Are you sure it's okay to have an outside date?... You look so tired" you were worried for Belphie who seemed to be almost headbanging due to drowsiness. "Yeah...we barely go out because I'm too tired. Can't be always me who wins, no?" The waiter served the order and it seemed that your order turned into an angel salad. "Hm..." You were hesitating to tell the waiter your order was wrong until Belphegor spoke up. "You got their order wrong, she ordered the 666 Devil Steak" he yawns again "Oh! I apologize, coming right up!" The waiter leaves in a hurry with the salad. "How'd you know?" you asked "Mmm well being with you, I realized how you don't call out other people's mistakes. Mmm it's troublesome for me, because I'll have unspoken feelings I'd regret. Don't worry about it" he said, as he yawns and took a nap beside his food.

🌙Headpats, all the time. He likes patting your head whenever you feel flustered because of him.

🌙Likes it if you're comfortable with him as he is with you. He'd enjoy it if you only talk to him (like ranting, venting, casually talking etc) while his head is on your lap. He thinks your voice is a lullaby, it feels serene enough to make him fall asleep, so please talk to him while his head is in your lap.

"Hey. How was your day?" One rare day, Belphegor is awake heading towards you and lie on the floor, head in your lap. You blush but you answer his question. "It was so tiring... Harumon spilled tea on me and I tripped on the debris while helping Beleth scavage" you run up your hand on his hair "Mmm and what else happened?" you can see Belphie become drowsy because of your touch. "Oh and Bathin came and brought souvenirs! But he tripped on Harumon and fell... Gusion also came but he looked so horny because he was computing something about palace expenses...quite weird bu- oh." When you looked down, he was sleeping. After a few moments "Why'd you stop talking?" Belphie woke up like he was never asleep. "You were sleeping..." "It's okay, keep talking, I like hearing your voice when I sleep mmm" he sleeps again in your lap and you blush.

🌙He forgets to say it or somehow hides it to not make you too shy or flustered, but he appreciates it whenever you're giving your best, such as getting out of your comfort zone, for him.

"Where are you going?" He asked as he woke up from his long nap. "I'm gonna pass my portfolio on an animation project... Studio PB is looking for animators and... I wanna try..." you meekly said "But I thought you didn't wanna pursue that?" Belphie looks at you, lazily, without judgement. "Yes but... I thought about going for it after you encouraged me to not be scared and to not think what other people say..." you rubbed the back of your neck "Yeah, mmm good boy/girl. Goodluck okay?" He kissed your forehead and pat your head. He then went back to Beleth's bed to sleep while having a smile on his face. You were dumbfounded because of the sudden forehead kiss and blushed while leaving the palace.

🌙Will slap your ass in a rare blue moon when he's awake and feeling naughty. By the time you'd react, he'd probably fall asleep.

You yelp as you feel Belphegor's familiar large hands slapping your rear. When you turn around you see none, but when you look to the floor, you see a Belphegor sleeping.

Bimet

💰Mans doesn't care if you're shy, if you got money he'd do whatever you say. No PDA? Done. Wanna hold his hand? Done. Mans flexible than Astaroth's snake, again, as long as he gain money from you.

💰However, his personal preference is to display public affection. But again, since you're like his bank, he'd acknowledge your preferences more than his.

Both of you were looking at the couple ahead of you, the guy's hand was on the girl's waist. You somehow looked at Bimet but blushed and looked away. Bimet noticed how you kept looking at them, then him, then blushing while looking away. "You know you could've asked, right?" Bimet stared at you blankly. "I... I'm too shy to. Idk... I may look like a bit needy, don't I?" you blushed and looked down. Bimet held your waist and pulled you closer to him "Let this be free of charge, for once" he whispered on your ear, and you blushed even more.

💰To be honest, he thought of you as his moneybag, he is a straightforward gold digger. But through time he thought that you were cute when shy and decided to stay and in turn, use SOME of his money for you.

Bimet was looking afar from Mammon's palace, while you were in the palace koi pond, having a peace of mind. In that rare instance he noticed himself reminiscing, he only treated you nicely because of your money. Because somehow you attracted good fortune like a lucky cat. But somehow he felt a sense of responsibility, he wanted to protect you at all cost. He was greedy for money, but he was also greedy for your affection. What a fitting man for Mammon's right hand. When he realized it, he noticed himself going down the castle, and ask if you wanna eat lunch at some restaurant he had a VIP membership on (because he is the right hand of Mammon).

💰You know how Belphie and Satan will talk to the waiter if they got your order wrong? Well this guy will tear somebody up if they got your order wrong.

"Oi. You. Waiter." Bimet glares at the waiter after the gave your food. "Bimet no it's -" He glares at you. You look at your lap, and blush, getting ready for the impact the waiter was about to face. "Yes how may I serve you?" The waiter comes, sensing the tension and a bit afraid. "I wonder how your boss would feel if his Majesty Mammon suddenly bought this establishment and firing you" Bimet smiles deadly. "S-sir" the demon was shivering "Um.. there might be a mix up on the order..." you meekly said, saving the waiter from his jobless future. "Oh? Oh! I see! Thank you so much ma'am/sir. I-im so sorry please! Ill bring in some complementary dessert too... I apologize again please don't fire me...!" He hurriedly goes back to the kitchen. "You shouldn't really be nice to him. Hmph. I could've thought him a lesson!" He pouts. "It's okay thank you..."

💰He's a scammer, but he's YOUR scammer. He doesn't want you to be scammed by anyone but him. That's how greedy he is.

Both of you were roaming in the streets of Abyssos because you wanted to buy from the ice cream shop that was popular for it's exquisite flavors. "Oh there's the shop. I'll go buy for you, you wait here okay?" Bimet calmly speaks to you, while having sparkly eyes, that was your cue to give him money. You gave him cash "I'll have the change, yes? Thanks." He fled to buy ice cream. Bimet left you in a bench that was near an alleyway. A shady woman came up to you selling some sex toys. You politely decline but she was persistent, saying she had no sales for the day and was giving you puppy eyes. "Oi. They said no. Back off." Bimet came back, glaring at them, controlling their grip to not break the ice cream he's holding. The demon backed off, not wanting to be in trouble. "Thats right. I'm their scammer, only THEIRS." he hugged you while holding the ice cream. You blushed and he held his hand. You held back his hand and he glared. "No, I meant payment for shooing that demon" Bimet smirks, you facepalmed.

Astaroth

🐍Doesn't do PDA but is a dirty talker. He loves to try and 'corrupt' (make you shy) both in public and private.

"Beings like you are very interesting" Astaroth looks at you "What do you mean?" You look at him back "You deny the pleasures of temptation, you aren't honest with yourselves" he looks at you and comes close, face in your ear "Hmm like this one over here." He whispers huskily. "Previously you were eyeing those harness, were you not? I bet it looks good on you while in bed" he added "I- Astaroth!" You blushed and he just smiled like nothing happened.

🐍Loves corrupting people and beings, especially YOU. He always makes sure and try to 'corrupt' you so that you won't leave him.

"Astaroth I need to go to work, do you want me to bring you food later?" you were putting your foot in your shoe while Astaroth's snake took your other shoe. "Humans work. Why must they work? It would be better if you're with me and cuddle no?" Astaroth got your shoe while smiling at you. "Y-you're doing this again! Last time you did this it ended up me taking my sick leave and we were in the bed!!" You blushed "I succeeded to corrupt you back then and I want to do that again. Your helpless expression in your face was satisfactor-" you covered his mouth and got your shoe. "Shh!! N-not today! M-maybe tonight..." You said, blushing.

🐍Gets kind of insecure when you get 'corrupted' by others, especially how hard it was for him to.

It was your day off and Paimon barged into your house. He was tempting you to go on shopping with him. Before Astaroth could do or say anything, Paimon dragged you out and he was pissed off. When you came back with a lot of shopping bags..."How come it's that easy for others to corrupt you while it took me ages for you to stay in bed with me on a weekday?" he was more sharp-tongued than usual, means he's pissed more to Paimon than you. "I... I'm sorry... He dragged me and...well I got you some clothes and some snake food...." You scratched your head and blushed a bit. "Alright but next time I get to corrupt you" "Okay you need to stop hanging out with Sitri, okay?" You replied but his snake hissed instead.

🐍 ENJOYS your stories and rants. He is happy if you feel comfortable enough to tell him everything, even your day. No matter how boring or how chaotic your day was. Plus he has a narratophilia kink.

"How was your day?" Astaroth greets you as you remove your outside clothes. "Hmmm it was pretty chaotic, Sitri asked my opinion on the palace decor such as paintings, vases, only for it to be crushed by his majesty's Satan and his motorcycle...." You sighed as you remove your socks. "Is that so? Ah to be crushed by his Majesty Satan" he imagines and blushed "N-no! Don't blush!! It was bad! When his majesty crushed the decor, Sitri was mad because apparently the decor had the audacity to be crushed by his majesty! And proceeded to wreck the debris..." you were so tired and changed into your house clothes. Astaroth was still blushing because he was imagining it. "H-hey stop!!" You blushed, it seems like you won't have any rest tonight, huh?

Ronove

🗡️Likes PDA, but prevents himself to. He thinks he might become nuts if he had gain too much physical contact with you.

You look at him and ask him if he's uncomfortable with physical affection, let alone in public. "No. However you're so pretty I might do something to you outside that may make you embarrassed or too shy to go outside for the next few weeks." He smiles and licked his lips. "W-what?!!" you blushed.

🗡️ If he feels like he can control himself, he'd hold your hand instead. Since he thinks hands are the most beautiful body part.

🗡️ When you're feeling insecure, he likes to remind you that he like beautiful and pretty things. So he'd explain how cute and pretty you are (applicable to all genders).

He noticed you were looking through a Devil's magazine, with male and female models. You somehow appear too focused and sad. He kept hearing you sigh and shaking your head. "Hey. Why is my pretty girl/boy sad?" He pats your head. "It's nothing..." You looked away. "You're not gonna be pretty if you frown a lot and sigh." It was visible in his eyes that he's worried. "Well I'm not pretty or beautiful or handsome, whatever so what's the point?" You snapped at him. "Who said that?" "No one... Look at these demons! They're the perfect definition of pretty!" you pointed at the models in the magazine. "They aren't as pretty as you" He made a blank stare as he bluntly tells you. "What?..." You looked at him with wide eyes and slightly blushed "They aren't as pretty as you. I mean look! This guy has a good body so I wanna cut it and display it. While this one had good hands! While the other one his toenail is-" "Wha?!" "While you're pretty enough that I don't want to cut you. You're pretty as a whole." He pats your head.

🗡️Asmodeus gave you permission to put a gag (the one he gave) on him when you think he gets a bit overboard with the compliments, like enough to make you red like a tomato.

"You're pretty. Very pretty today especially with that top that looks good on your body. Yes beautiful yes. And your hands and nails, very clean, like no other. Your legs! Your pants accentuate your legs I'd like to get crushed by it and-" Ronove kept on rambling and you just put a gag on his mouth. "Sorry.... We're going on a busy street and I don't want them to hear you complimenting me...." You blush as he protested.

🗡️Gets horny after seeing cut up angels and instead talks dirty to you.

Both of you were roaming the streets as you see cut up bodies of angels. The bodies were fresh and reeks of blood. When you turn around, Ronove was inspecting the bodies. " Yes. Yes! Pretty bodies.... Hands...Nails... Wings!!" Ronove was practically drooling and was aroused. He was looking left and right for bodies and saw you. "H-hey I was wondering if we can do it right now.." You blushed, you know what he was talking about. "Oh hell no please! What if people see?!" You were blushing so much "Then let me tell you how much I wanna ravage you here and-" You put the gag back on him.

Bael

👑Too busy for PDA, which favors you because you won't get shy or overwhelmed around too many people greeting the both of you here and there.

"Hey" you greeted Bael early in the morning. But he was too busy to notice you. "Bael?" you tapped on his shoulder "Oh! Sorry I didn't hear you. This stupid king of mine went on a shopping spree again! Like imagine! I just went to sleep and look at all the receipts!! One day!!" he looked at you with an irritated face, mostly directed to the receipts. "Oh...then I guess we won't be able to go to the movies today?" He froze. "Well based from the little souvenir Beel brought I guess I can't. I need to pay these off and record his damn debt. I'm sorry... I swear Beel is gonna face my whip when I see him!!! Receipts and a cancelled date!! Beelzebub you piece of s-" Bael's eyes were filled with rage as he crumpled a handful of receipts. He inhaled, calming himself down. "I guess I failed you again huh, sorry sweetie. Really. I'm sorry for being busy." He rubbed the back of his neck while apologizing profusely. "No!! It's fine! Really, it's a good thing so that I don't get to see to many people...yk they always call you 'your majesty'" you sheepishly said, blushing. You then hang out in Bael's office while Bael was raging and signing documents and calling stores that Beel came last night.

👑Like Beel, he knows whether you're upset because of your scent. He doesn't shamelessly sniff you in public like beel, but he knows how you feel because of his sense of smell and observation.

👑Opposite to beel, he likes the relationship nice and slow.

There are two types of how people act with their favorite food: Eat it fast and get more, or eat it slowly and savor it. Bael is the later. He lets you take your time and get used to the weird life in Abyssos, where it was common to see naked people fucking in alleyways. He never pushed you into anything extreme, one reason is he's always busy and another is, he wanted to take your relationship similar to his favorite food, he wants to savor it til the end.

👑He was pretty insecure with other couples the way he was treating you.

"Don't you think my king is amazing? He's a bit peculiar but everyone in Abyssos likes him" Bael says as he was signing papers. "Hmm yeah I think so too" You were on the couch, playing on your phone. "Don't think you'd rather date my king than me?" Bael stopped signing the documents in front of him, waiting for your response. "Huh? Why would I?" You looked at him, a bit shocked. "Well maybe because he's hotter? He's more amazing? And I'm just, Bael. I'm not him. I-" He somehow sounded a bit pained. "Why would I do that? I like Bael not Beelzebub. I like you for you, not because you're similar to his Majesty, Beel." You didn't usually speak up, but you felt the need to do so. "Thanks sweetest." He smiled and went to the couch.

👑Sometimes shy to admit but he wants to sniff your sweat in your legs.

You went home after jogging. You were a bit sweaty and somehow Bael smell your sweat in your armpits and legs. "H-hey" Bael said, trying to be calm, while he's becoming a bit red. "Are you okay?" You approached him and put a hand on his forehead. "You're heating up...." you added. "I-I can smell you" Bael have a hard time breathing and he's becoming red. "Pardon?" you tilt your head "You smell delicious." Bael was full blown horny and pounced on you. Let's just say you couldn't walk the next day and he apologized ;).

//All of this right back at you!! Those anons the other day clearly had no idea what they were talking about, because Claudia is an awesome OC! It’s clear how much thought and effort you put not only into her character, but into the Sloth ring as well! I love reading your headcanons about her, Belphegor, and the Sloth ring in general. You’re amazing!

[singthesongsofsin]

🌙🌙| And everyone's favourite narcoleptic idealist has fixed tags!

[singthesongsofsin]

🌙🌙| Some Sloth ring headcanons

Sloth is a weird, an anomaly even in Hell.

The majority of demons on the ring are Sleep Paralysis Demons, though there’s a fair share of Baphomets and ones from other rings. For the other Hellborn whose families have been in Sloth for several generations, they’ve clearly been coloured by the weirdness of Sloth.

And Sloth is weird. Politically it is, the entire ring is unionized. There was a problem back in the early 1800s, not too long after the Industrial Revolution on earth, of Hellborn coming to Sloth and exploiting its workforce. The general approach is ‘hey we don’t like that’, and it was a unanimous decision.

Speaking off that, Sloth is run by a council: Belphegor is technically the highest authority, and they meet every six months. The other members include a variety of people, including some Ars Goetia from Sloth, and a variety of the more standard Hellborn. Half of the meeting sis Teri g things up for the next six months, and half making sure everything previously set up is still running. Occasionally emergency meetings are called, as in the case of unionizing.

The ring itself sort of feels like Wonderland. It feels like a dream made real a lot of the time, cobble streets in some areas, flowers that glow, and some regions that seem to alter themselves at whim. Physics tends to go a little funny in some regions.

It rains a lot. Sloth isn’t an aquatic ring, that’s Envy, but the flood drains see a lot of use.

Sloth’s largest industry includes work on Earth, think Astaroth, the Sleep Paralysis Demons, to a lesser extent, the soul jars. But within Hell, Sloth both possesses the primary university (with correspondence courses offered in all the other rings) in Hell, as well as, or perhaps because of, a thriving medical industry. Sloth is where most pharmaceuticals are produced.

Sloth imports quite a lot from the other rings. The most notable of Sloth’s connections with the other Rings come from Envy, and Pride. Belphegor has a remarkably good business relationship with Vox, and so the vast majority of media and a lot of technology is imported.

[singthesongsofsin]

🌙 | Room of Jars

Perhaps Belphegor’s most important responsibility, and quite possibly the one he takes the most pride in, is the shelves upon shelves he has in the back rooms of his house. From the door, the shelves seem endless. Most people don’t know the jars exist; Lucifer and the other sins do, especially because Belphegor fought for the right to protect them. Even then, knowing they exist doesn't mean that any of them like the room.

The Hellborn are the least perturbed by the room-- they were never human, and thus have less sense for the room being as fundamentally wrong-- but even they find it unsettling.

But what are the jars exactly? The jars are combination of things. Some people die with souls too torn and tattered to create a sinner, so they keep falling until they hit what is, essentially, a giant magical net cast all over Sloth. Some humans who make deals with demons, and whatever they did pulls their soul apart and auctioned off, only to wind up here. Others run afoul of supernatural creatures that eat more than just their bodies.

But, the majority of the jars, are those killed by Angelic weaponry. The ninety-nine percent in Exterminations, the others from the black market weapons. They fall, again, but this time their soul is not enough to stop themselves from falling. Hence the net. it blankets Sloth, and catches the souls of those who would otherwise fall beyond the reaches of the world.

The jars are a manifestation of a soul too weak to take shape. Some are etched metal with what sound like coins or pearls inside, others a traditional urn. Each soul is different, and so is each jar.

There are rumours of Sinners returning after death, appearing a decade after an Extermination like nothing happened, and for those in the know, of jars returning to life; Belphegor knows those are just rumours. Sometimes a jar does seem to be taken by more agitation than normal, and he brings them out to sit on his desk, and he always hopes it means a soul might just coalesce out of it. Without fail, they return to their restful state, and are taken back to their spot in the shelves.

They're not really… alive. They aren’t conscious, it’s not even peaceful so much as it just is.

Every so often, Belphegor alters the rooms they are kept in. Perhaps a cellar would serve them well, in the dark? Or a skylight with light? Plants? Nothing ever seems to awaken them, but they aren’t going anywhere and he is unwilling to give up trying, or maybe just hoping that eventually they will pull themself together enough to break free of the jar.

[singthesongsofsin]

Demonic Form

Whilst Belphegor tends to keep a fairly human form, quite a lot like the one he had before the Fall, as he gets more upset, the inhumanity of it comes out. If keeping a physical form is too much effort, then it dissolves into an incorporeal mist-like one, but the in between state is terrifying.

The edges of physicality become blurry; he gets taller, sunken, empty eye sockets, limbs elongate, hanging like all the muscles and ligaments don’t exist. As if his entire body is becoming less attached to its normal bounds, sinking outside the lines.

Alongside the abandonment of a a typical physical body, his voice goes strange. It’s still coming from his form, but it echoes, whispery from every direction.

People who see it understand where sleep paralysis demons come from, like a children’s crayon drawings of the monsters in the dark come to life.

[singthesongsofsin]

🌙🌙| How did I miss the obvious that if any muse has chronic fatigue syndrome it’s Belphegor? So that’s just… a part of him now. It changes virtually nothing because I’ve unintentionally been writing him that way all along.

[singthesongsofsin]

👗 + Belphegor when he has to do official business. (and/or when he has to visit the other sins for 'family meetings'!)

@novinare | If your first thought is 'that looks like a woman!', and your second is 'hey wait that looks really comfortable', then you have stumbled upon the core of Belphegor's approach to formal wear. He tends to go for richly embroidered and flowy fabrics, and also lots of rings. His hair gets pulled back with various fancy hair combs and clips. He tends to go for robes that cross over in the front.

[singthesongsofsin]

Which of the muses is most likely to consume (in some form or another) marijuana?

Hellaina: Not her drug of choice-- she is more likely to go for uppers of some sort. But even then, not something she uses much of.

Dia: Nope! Was a medical student for too long.

Tara: Has, but doesn't usually. If she does, it's more of a social thing.

Belphegor: No, it would just put him to sleep, and he has enough trouble staying awake as is.

Adelard: Surprisingly yes. He grows it, like a lot of other plants. it was being used and cultivated in Medieval Europe, so it's hardly some new foreign thing. He was using it in life too.

Svetlana: Nope, like with Dia, she's too aware of the effects on the body. She was training to be a cosmonaut that she didn't go near a lot of sugars and fats much less drugs!

Metatron: Could probably benefit from some occasionally, but no.

Jayden: Yes, but in the sort of awkward giggly way of someone for whom it was a crime for most of their life.

🌙🌙| I need everyone to understand that now the show itself is out, there is one fact that is deeply, unbearably comedically funny to me. Jeremy Jordan plays Lucifer, he is also Light in the US Concept Album of the Death Note musical, which has the fabulous song “Where Is the Justice?” which was one of the two songs that are foundational for Belphegor, it was some of the earliest inspiration for him.

And usually in my head Lucifer played the second role, but it makes it all hit different when he says “your simple arguments have all been made before” because yeah! They were made by you! Belphegor really taking after his older brother here.

🌙 | What Comes Before the Fall, and the Nightmares

Belphegor was a child soldier in a time before child, or teenager was even a concept. He was created whole, but that is not the same as experience. He was the youngest, and fought and Fell with the others.

The Fall was long. That is the thing he does not know how to describe to anyone who was not there. He tore through the atmosphere and lost his breath; panic and fear and glee rushing past him. (Later, when the mortals speak of Icarus, Belphegor suspects he knows a little of how that feels).

But while the Fall was a protracted thing, very little changed between the start and the end. The thing that sticks with him more is the fight before, the thing that preceded it-- and then found itself repeated centuries later when once again they were called to arms. He was given a weapon and told little else other than to fight.

His suggestions had always come during earlier parts of the planning-- ideological concerns, and complains about the current world they were living in, never battle strategy. He had not considered that their Father would throw them out, so much as that they could reform. But here were his siblings and all those he had known fighting both beside and against him.

Most of the time, Belphegor is easy enough to wake, even if that must happen frequently, but there are times, and it always seems to come during the dreams of the war, that he can't. He finds himself trapped in the memories. When usually he sleeps with a preternatural stillness, when stuck in the nightmares he rolls and throws out arms as if he were back there.

When eventually he wakes up, it's never felt restful, but nor can he go back to sleep. Most nights aren't those nightmares, but nor are they exceedingly rare.

Where does your muse fall on seeing Barbenheimer?

Hellaina: Oppenheimer, with Vox, and then Barbie with Dia. Has not dressed in theme.

Dia: Sees both! Dresses up for both. Oppenheimer first.

Adelard: Confused by the whole thing, if he hears about it at all. Sees neither.

Jayden: BARBIE!!! He’s dressed in full Ken getup.

Svetlana: Goes to neither, will probably end up watching them on her own with Russian subtitles.

Belphegor: They arrive later to Sloth. He sees both, but Barbie is the hit on the ring. He sees it first.

Astaroth: She and Mephistopheles go on Earth, but in opposite order. They both dress up, if not as dramatically as some do! She sees Barbie first, and then steals his period accurate coat as the main point of her second outfit.
