How would the non-dateable characters react to an MC that spent their time in the surface world as a maid/butler and basically go out of their way to complete a task they’ve been asked?

Obey Me! Side characters with a Butler/Maid MC

Tags: Obey Me Side Characters x Reader, Butler/Maid!Reader, Platonic Relationships, Respect and Admiration, Hardworking MC, Humor and Teasing, Work Ethics, Supportive.

Diavolo

Diavolo would be absolutely captivated by your dedication. As the future Demon King, he holds a deep respect for responsibility and commitment, so seeing someone as committed as you would resonate strongly with him. In his mind, your unwavering determination to complete every task, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, showcases qualities that are essential for leadership. It’s rare to find such commitment in the Devildom, where chaos often reigns, and your steadfast work ethic would be like a breath of fresh air to him.

“I see so much of myself in you,” Diavolo says with a warm, almost nostalgic smile. “When I was younger, I felt the same drive to ensure every detail was perfect, no matter how minor it seemed. It’s inspiring to witness that same dedication in you.” He chuckles, adding, “I’d wager that the Devildom could use more people with your sense of duty.”

He might even seek your insight on royal duties or discuss his plans for the future with you, curious about how you’d approach certain situations. Diavolo’s admiration goes beyond just respect—he values hard work, and he might even hint that someone with your skill and diligence could play an important role in shaping the Devildom’s future.

Barbatos

Barbatos would be one of the few who truly understands the depth of your dedication and what it takes to work behind the scenes. As Diavolo’s ever-loyal butler, Barbatos has devoted centuries to perfecting his craft and upholding an unmatched standard of service. He’d recognize the subtle signs of a fellow professional immediately—the precision, the thoughtfulness, the unwavering sense of responsibility. To Barbatos, every detail matters, and seeing you approach your tasks with the same level of care would spark a deep respect.

“MC, I must say, your approach to your duties is remarkable. You understand the importance of even the smallest task, something that many overlook,” he’d remark, his tone steady and approving. “It’s rare to find someone who appreciates the significance of every detail.”

However, Barbatos would also be watchful of your well-being. He knows firsthand how easy it can be to prioritize work over oneself. Occasionally, he might offer gentle guidance, or even a word of caution to ensure you don’t push yourself too hard. If he saw you struggling, he wouldn’t hesitate to subtly offer assistance, perhaps suggesting ways to streamline your work. In his own reserved way, he’d likely take pride in seeing your growth and would be one of your staunchest supporters.

Solomon

Solomon would take an amused interest in your sense of duty. As a powerful sorcerer, he’s grown accustomed to delegating and isn’t one to fuss over the finer points of daily life. So, encountering someone who insists on carrying out every task with thoroughness would be both intriguing and slightly endearing to him. Your dedication might even remind him of his younger days, though he’d be more likely to show his appreciation through playful teasing.

“Now, now, aren’t you the diligent one?” he’d say with a smirk, watching as you focused intently on some task. “I must admit, I can’t remember the last time I put that much care into… well, anything.”

In his lighthearted way, Solomon might offer to teach you magical shortcuts or charms to make your work easier, though he’d secretly admire that you’d likely still do things the hard way, for the sake of thoroughness. He might jokingly call you his “favorite overachiever,” but he’d always keep an eye on you, making sure you didn’t overwork yourself. Despite his teasing, his respect for your dedication would be genuine, and he’d find your work ethic refreshing in a world that’s often focused on power over responsibility.

Simeon

Simeon would be touched by your dedication and strong sense of responsibility, qualities that would resonate deeply with him as an angel. Your commitment to every task, no matter how small, would be something he not only respects but also cherishes. To Simeon, it would be a sign of your compassionate nature—your desire to give your best for the people around you, simply because you care.

“You’re truly remarkable, MC,” he’d say with a gentle smile, his eyes full of warmth. “It’s not everyone who approaches their work with such kindness and devotion. I can see that you care deeply for those you serve.”

Simeon would often check in on you, making sure you were balancing work with self-care. If he noticed you were pushing yourself too hard, he’d gently encourage you to take a step back. Perhaps he’d suggest spending time together outside of your duties—walking through the gardens, sharing stories, or simply relaxing. Simeon would genuinely value you for who you are, not just for what you can do, and he’d encourage you to find joy and fulfillment outside of work.

Luke

Luke would be thrilled by your dedication, finding your sense of duty truly admirable. As a young angel-in-training, he takes his responsibilities very seriously, though his youthful energy often leads him to be overly eager. Seeing you work with such focus would inspire him, but it would also make him a bit protective, especially if he thought you were overworking yourself.

“Wah, MC, you’re amazing! I wish I could be as amazing as you,” he’d say, his eyes wide with admiration. “But, you um don’t need to do everything by yourself, you know! I could help too!”

Luke would likely offer to assist you with smaller tasks or encourage you to take a break to play or have some snacks with him. He’d try his best to make sure you didn’t take on more than you could handle, insisting on being your little “assistant.” Despite his young age, Luke would look out for you in his own way, making sure you took time to rest and have some fun, believing that even the most dedicated workers deserve a break.

Thirteen

Thirteen would have a mix of amusement and genuine respect for your work ethic. As someone who’s used to being a bit chaotic and doing things her own way, she might initially find your dedication a bit too serious for her tastes. However, as she watched you work, she’d come to admire your commitment, even if she’d never admit it outright. Deep down, she might even feel a bit jealous of your dedication, though she’d cover it with teasing remarks.

“Look at you, all serious and diligent,” she’d say with a smirk. “I didn’t know anyone could take their job so… intensely. Are you sure you’re not a demon in disguise? Because even I don’t have that kind of energy.”

She’d tease you relentlessly, calling you “the Devildom’s best maid/butler,” but there’d be a hint of genuine respect in her tone. At times, she might even playfully sabotage your tasks to see if you could keep up, though she’d secretly lend a hand when you needed it most. She might even challenge you to relax or try out her chaotic methods, just to see if you’d let loose a little. But ultimately, she’d appreciate your commitment and offer her support in her own mischievous way.

Raphael

Raphael would be one of the few who completely understands your sense of duty. As a disciplined and morally driven angel (Seraphim), he believes that diligence and devotion are marks of true character. Seeing someone with such a strong work ethic would earn his immediate respect, though he’d also be quietly concerned if he noticed you sacrificing too much of yourself for your duties.

“MC, your devotion is commendable,” Raphael would say with a thoughtful nod. “I admire how you approach your tasks with such earnestness. Few people possess such a pure sense of responsibility.”

He’d encourage you to maintain a balance between work and personal well-being, often checking in to make sure you were not pushing yourself to the point of exhaustion. Raphael might even offer advice on meditation or relaxation techniques, subtly guiding you toward a healthier work-life balance. To him, dedication is a virtue, but he’d remind you that it’s just as important to preserve your own strength to continue serving others.

Mephistopheles

Mephistopheles would be intrigued by your dedication, though he’d probably find it a bit amusing as well. As someone with a sharp mind and a tendency to look down on others, he’d quickly recognize the value in having someone like you around. Your willingness to go above and beyond would be an asset he’d appreciate, though he might never openly say it. Instead, he’d express his admiration in his usual sarcastic, somewhat aloof manner.

“Diligent, aren’t we?” he’d comment with a raised eyebrow and a smirk. “I suppose it’s good to have someone who knows how to get things done. Just don’t let it go to your head. You’re only useful as long as you don’t burn out.”

Mephistopheles would likely test your limits, occasionally giving you more than you could handle to see if you’d falter. He respects hard work, but he’d also enjoy pushing you to see how far your dedication could take you. Behind his somewhat cold (more like self centred) exterior, there’d be a grudging respect, though he’d rarely express it openly.
