#he lets ik sometimes when she needs comforting but other than that the fur is Off Limits

I think that IK's Palico having the same personality as Lucifer is absolutely golden. I think it would be funny if some demons would absolutely refer to the Palico as "Lucifer but a cat" or that Satan, when thinking, may, on occasion, accidentally refer to the Palico as "Lucifer but better."

Any demons who mess with IK (Belphie and possibly Lucifer) better sleep with one eye open because the intelligent cat who helps the child with hunting giant monsters, some of which could probably step on said cat without even realizing, would absolutely hold grudges.

On a separate note, how do you think Solomon, Simeon, and Luke would react to IK?

ik's palico probably Hates everyone else for months, he spends the first entire month of their time in the devildom just glued to her side and giving anyone who speaks to them the most unnerving unblinking stare for the entirety of their conversation

if belphie did manage to kill her he'd have to sleep with one eye open for at least two weeks before ik finally convinces her palico not to enact vengeance, and even then he is on thin ice. one wrong move and he is GETTING it

as for the purgatrio... luke would probably be kind of terrified of both ik and her palico, who does NOT make an exception to the silent glaring thing for him. also there's probably a 'violence is bad!!!!' teaching from the celestial realm that'd make him suspicious of someone whose entire job is just hunting down and killing things. he'd have a whole arc where he's like "i thought you were a horrible bloodthirsty killer but it turns out you're so nice!!" and ik's like ".......you didn't need to tell me the first part"

solomon i think would be more impressed than anything, though maybe also a little upset that this tiny human has fought so many deadly battles that she's literally immune to venom now - i could see him investing in coming up with enhancing potions and such to keep her a little bit safer (this ik is also impervious to the effects of solomon's cooking, which is a godsend for the angels)

simeon would be similarly wary of ik in the beginning, but i think he'd be one of the fastest to warm up to her because 1. he finds her dynamic with her palico very charming and 2. he has a soft spot for leads like henry, and ik is just the cutest little hero to him (to him she's like a knight in a fairy tale, he just sort of Does Not See the actual violence involved, like a grandmother with selective memory for a beloved grandkid's deeds)
