I am going to make a dynamic that is sooo codependent and destructive

[blobee]

I think I just need to explain myself for my inactivity lately, it's just that the situation with this whole thing is growing. And, well, it happens too often to ignore, so I'm in a bad mood for anything.

This is the sixth siren today and I'm tired so I'll see what I can do, I don't know honestly

Obey me AU where everything is the same except Diavolo’s mom is alive. When the demon King went to rest she took a massive step back and isolated herself in the mausoleum to tend to the kings past, so Diavolo can learn to lead.

She’s a big fan of the exchange idea, except for the angels. But she’s nicer about it than the king. The only one who knows she’s still alive is Barbatos, Dia and everyone else think she passed on when the King went to rest. Swore Barbatos to secrecy and only plans on intervening in extraneous circumstances (read: MC almost destroying the realms by existing)

Angst, fluff, angst, smut in that order

yknow i say im a huge multishipper but i wouldnt actually consider myself much of a shipper at all. just open to the idea of trying everything once. the term has typically romantic connotations and follows the assumption that i think, and want, these characters to be good for eachother.

I'm, personally, less interested in the prexisting chemistry than i am in the puzzle of figuring out what differing circumstances could potentially cause two characters who have seemingly nothing in common to become eachothers everything.

This could explain my favorism towards rarepairs and more convoluted dynamics, and my aversion to popular, fluffy pairings that have already been explored a thousand times over, there's no work for me to do there.

Not to mention that when a ship becomes too popular it starts cannibalising itself, and lots of good, interesting characterisations are lost in the sea of people bending characters into pre-orchestrated, saccharine dynamics. alot of which are usually downright fetishy in nature, particularly in mlm pairings.

I mean i would say being able to get ooc and self indulgent is downright mandatory for making a good fic, but there's only so many times i have to read a fic about a big, overprotective, manly-man top who does all the work and the shy, small, swoony, softhearted femme-wifey-bottom before it starts to just be lazy.

I actively have to go out of my way to search 'switch' tags if i want true-to-the-character, mutual emotional reciprocation. which i really, really shouldn't have to do as an ace person who actively skips through nsfw.

And it's not that popular wlw pairings aren't guilty of these problems aswell, but those tend to lean more into the 'soft lesbians who can do no wrong' stereotype, which always completely (butch)ers all nuisance that makes the ship worth shipping in the first place.

As well as that's if they're even the focus of the story at all and aren't just shoved to the side by the main mlm couple. mlw pairings can be culpable of both these things, with the added risk that you find out the author made a twitter post with the characters in front of the 'super straight' flag.

Though i also wonder if me being aspec plays any part as again; im not as interested in the romantic aspects as i am in the possible hurdles they may face throughout the potential relationship.

Anyone else feel like this?

My city is so popular now 😎

All the brothers take clothes from MC, say goodbye to all your shirts and hoodies, they belong to the demons now. It just who steals how often that changes.

Mammon and Asmodeus are the biggest and most blatant thieves. Mammon’s got a hoard of MC’s clothes that he only gives back after they stop smelling like MC, or someone takes them out of his room to put in the wash. He’s completely unashamed too, MC has walked in to Mammon rifling though their shirts and he just takes some with a “thanks!” and leaves. Asmo takes whole outfits, and also doesn’t give them back. If he takes something it just becomes a part of his wardrobe now, MC has to go through every few weeks to pick out the stuff he took. He whines and and pitches a fit but doesn’t stop them, he’s already planning on what he’s gonna take next.

Leviathan and Belphegor are also huge thieves but are way more subtle about it. They both tend to take old shirts mc never wears and uses them as pillow cases until they stop smelling like MC. That’s when they put them back into MC’s laundry and pick a new shirt. But if Belphie gets caught he just shrugs and mutters about how how he only chose stuff they wouldn’t miss and keeps doing it. If Levi gets caught he stops completely for a while unless MC specifically says it’s fine, he’s still mortified no matter which way it goes.

Satan and Beelzebub are the only ones that ask before they do anything. Satan picks out something he wears out once or twice before washing and returning it immediately. Beel picks out something he’ll wear once or twice if it fits, usually as a workout shirt or hoodie. But if it doesn’t fit, he takes the Belphie approach and uses it as a pillowcase. Either way, he tends to forget to return the piece of clothing for a long while but does still return it without intervention.

Lucifer is the sneakiest and the last one to start stealing things. He only takes old stuff MC doesn’t wear, wears it as a sleep shirt for a night, and slips it back into their laundry as soon as possible. If he ever gets caught he might combust, but instead he just offers something of his in exchange and starts keeping what he takes for a little bit longer.
