[l3viat8an]

Walking up to Lucifer while he’s doing paperwork at his desk, kissing his forehead and whispering a soft, “I love you.” before walking away again to do whatever duties you have.

It’s so soft and random, Lucifer just sits there for a minute blushing, before shaking his head and going back to his paperwork.

F! MC :Does he fuck? Fuck he does!

M! MC:What makes it even better is that this could be love

✦ ⊹ ˚˖ warnings... mentions m!reader a few times but can be read as gn for the most part lol, implied romantic/queerplatonic relationship but interpret it as you like, its pretty soft man idk what to say

 :¨·.·¨ ♥︎  a.n... need more dateables content on my blog sigh>.<)) i began this all the way last year in april.... (∩﹏∩) i am slowly clearing out my drafts and reqs okay!!!! (i hope the halloween special final will be out before this years halloween...)

DIAVOLO !

now, we all know he's a bit ... behind on things outside of ruling an entire realm so he most definitely had to ask barbatos and lucifer for suggestions.

he was taking you all these fancy, bougie places with a clear itinerary in mind (thanks to the influence of a certain avatar of pride) that at the end of the day felt more like a tour of devildom than a date.

on the last of his planned out date, it ended up raining and the two of you somehow spent the last couple of hours talking to each other underneath the shade of a tree where you found out that all the dates were thanks to diavolo's right hand men.

after that talk you finally convinced him to take you places that were dear to him and to allow you to plan future dates as well.

he insists on paying, regardless of how much you protest and tell him that you also have pride as a man (it's just something you have to deal with sorry).

take him on a date in the human realm and watch as this scary ruler of all demons turns into a big baby, fascinated with everything (now its your turn to play tour guide).

if you get him one of those cheap, silly little keychains you find in gift stores, he'd treasure it for as long as he lives.

if you get anything matching (be it a shirt, keychains, plushies, you name it), he'll have the biggest sparkling eyes you've ever seen on a living being and beg you to wear it for the rest of your time in the human realm.

his favourite dates are the ones where you and him simply enjoy a cup of tea and snacks barbatos prepared in the castles garden glass gazebo (its domestic and he likes seeing you in his 'domain' so to say).

BARBATOS !

picnics. with your favourite snacks he's prepared from as early as the night before.

appreciates every moment alone with you especially since it's rare for the two of you to be together without the others around.

he always goes for something he knows you'll like, and if you don't enjoy a particular part of the date he'll keep it in mind.

the most important part of the date to him is seeing you happy and being in your company.

thought there would never come a time where he would be peeved by diavolo calling for him until one day the demon lord forgot about his date with you and wondered where he went.

after that diavolo encouraged barbatos to go out with you more often (would not take no for an answer no matter how much barbatos tried to turn him down).

he'd be a bit hesitant to go to the human realm since he'd be so far away from diavolo but the thought of being alone with you is just so tempting (he's a demon after all) he can't decline.

if you bought him a little plush keychain TRUST it would be posed carefully in the kitchen where he can see it every day while he prepares the de facto demon kings meals.

he would take you to the most unknown and hidden spots in devildom that even diavolo wouldn't know of their existence and turn it into a frequent rendezvous spot (and perhaps it excites a small part of you, perhaps because it's more or less a secret that only you and barbatos share).

SIMEON !

simple minded. likes going anywhere with you.

gotta say though, he especially likes the way your eyes crinkle when you smile after tasting a homemade sweet treat.

doesn't have an ideal date with you but dates where you two bake together are his favourite.

also note. he will tear up if you turn the tables on him and prepare him some treats of your own specialty (his only smiles wider when he hears you grumble about being as much of a househusband as he is).

even if you make something that could rival solomon's cooking, he'd still eat it with a smile (because you made it all for him and he would be a fool to pass it up).

if you guys go out for a stroll in any of the three realms, he'd always have his hand on you (fingers intertwined with yours, arm coiled around your waist and such).

he'll find some small treasure from the date and keep it tucked away somewhere.

loves taking pictures with a polaroid so he can treasure the memories (he especially loves taking candid pictures of you, especially while eating one of his sweets of course).

be prepared to gain weight if he takes you up to the celestial realm, he will make sure you eat every single angelic dish until you couldn't do so much as waddle around.

likes taking you around the celestial realm and telling you all the stories of his past and some passed down stories from other older angels.

while passing through the many gardens of the celestial realm, he'll sneakily pluck a flower or two for you until you end up with nothing less than a small bouquet (and more often than not getting a rather lengthy scolding from michael).

SOLOMON !

you know that UR card of him where he takes you on a magic carpet ride??? yeah expect that sort of shit constantly.

he is so fond of you and your reactions and that just makes him wanna toy around with you all the more.

he's not ashamed to cause a ruckus in all three realms as long as he can see you either laugh until tears gather in the corner of your eyes or cling onto him while half heartedly yelling at him, he's willing to pull out all his little tricks up his sleeve.

he is such a menace but you can tell he puts a lot of thought and care into his surprises, you can't find it in yourself to be upset with him (and truth be told you do enjoy the rise he brings out of you).

during a rare moment of vulnerability, he'd take you around his hometown and reminisce his youth, telling tales of ancient memories that only he would remember (noting the way his eyes shone with an emotion you couldn't quite pinpoint).

never one to dwell in his nostalgia for long, he would take you to another spot and spin some hauntingly believable ghost story just to scare you (whether you believe it or not, solomon will most definitely try to sneak in a few spooks here and there especially with magic).

after he would torment you and every other living being in his vicinity, he'd like to end the day by doing something comparatively calmer and laid back, perhaps something as simple as cuddles, reading together (or maybe even him reading to you), or watching a movie.

I really love the idea that fallen angels have uniquely different experiences than other demons.

Sure, they might be demons now, but once upon a time, they used to be something different. Falling doesn't magically erase countless years spent living in a completely different world, eating different foods and wearing different clothes and waking up and falling asleep under a different sky.

Fallen angels have memories about places that used to matter to them a long time ago - my old room, which dining hall had the best view of the gardens, which kitchen was easiest to sneak into for a late-night snack. They talk about places - a flower field or a river or lake - where they shared common experiences and memories they can still think of fondly. Demons that overhear them realize the places they're referring to simply don't exist in the Devildom.

I wonder what they would think about this? It's strange when other angels are mentioned in connection with a memory: perhaps those angels aren't as reputable or powerful as the Seraphim, but they're still once-treasured enough to not yet be forgotten. They're old friends lost in time.

How often do fallen angels revert back to speaking or writing scripture out out habit? How awkward is it to ace a test about Celestial Realm history when they struggle to recall the Devildom-centric events for those same periods in time?

Fallen angels sometimes refer to back home like something from an old memory. Sometimes they refer to Devildom holidays or traditions as things demons do as if they're not demons themselves. They're demons, but they weren't always. They're similar, but not exactly the same, either.

It's almost habit to talk about themselves as if they're an angel and a demon, because they're a unique breed of creature that's lived as both.

I know people are sad that both OMGames will get shut down but I just think it's so funny that they decided to roll out those date tickets like 2-3 days before just to get some extra cash lmao

Kinktober Day 1:Breast Worship with Diavolo

Pronouns: The reader is referred to as a man but no exact pronouns are used after that.

Physical Sex: AMAB

How far are things going?: This is for kinktober. Take a wild guess how far things are going (Not full-blown sex but sexual teasing.)

Warnings: Smut, lots of talk of his boobs as they are the focus MDNI

Outline: Reader and Diavolo havent seen each other in a few days as paper work has piled up and you had work travels. You finally get back and as you promised you were ready to mark up his chest.

What inspired me to write how I did: Nothing!

Diavolo shuttered as your cold hands traced his black button-up. He was still at his desk working when you finally arrived home. However once you stepped through his office door, he practically shoved the papers away and leaped to you.

His voice was shaky as he tried to tell you his excitement that you were home as your fingers gently pinched at his nipples. "hm I'm so happy you're hOME! I've missed you so much!!" his thighs clenched as your hands continued their abuse of his chest. Groping him from behind

His hands reached up and started undoing the pearl-white buttons, which were already strained by his chest size but were practically popping due to your hands. He was hoping to tease you a bit when you had gotten home with a shirt that was a bit too tight, but you blew right past that attempt of his.

Finally getting each button undone, the warm air spread across his chest making him whine. He turned around in your arms pushing himself to your lips for a desperate kiss. His hands didn't know where to land as he pushed your head down to his chest. His ass hit the top of his desk from backing up.

He hoped to land on the couch in his office but was happy to get off his feet anyway. While you slotted yourself between his legs, his hands pushed your head down once again. You latched on just above his nipples, marking the skin.

The purple mark contrasted the soft brown skin of his chest. His legs pulled you closer as you finally focused your attention on his left nipple. His eyes watched you closely as you nipped and licked at the soft bud on his chest. Your eyes were closed, seemingly losing yourself.

His slacks felt almost painfully tight as you placed wet kisses on his sternum. Your mouth pulled away as you glanced down, "Oh wow, I knew you missed me," your right hand reached down and softly gripped his growing hard-on. He was undoubtedly a great size, but with you, it just sat weeping. "I didn't know it was this much, Dia I would've been home sooner had I known.." your finger traced the outline of his cock with your pointer finger. His back arched slightly as you touched.

Unzipping his slacks, your mouth lacked onto his left nipple, flicking it between your teeth. His hands attempted to push your head further onto his chest, but it was out of desperation; you weren't able to take more of him in your mouth. The sharp pain of you sucking kept him wanting more and more. His legs wrapped around you, attempting to pull you into him.

"Please, (name), keep going!" "Touch me more!" "I missed you so much!" "I couldn't stop thinking about you!"

His voice was breathy as he clung to you more and more. He was just saying anything that came to mind; he didn't want to fully give into the pleasure, wanting it to last as long as he could manage. Hands tangled in your hair, keeping a firm grip on handfuls of your locks, only giving enough highway to breathe.

His golden eyes were clouded when you left a second, third, and fourth mark across his hot skin. His legs shook as your warm tongue became unrelenting on the now-hardened buds. His boxers had a dark spot, even with the lack of attention it was getting from you. The warmth of your mouth trailed down his toned stomach, nipping at the skin as you went. His hands followed your head as you went further and further.

"I think you deserve more attention, don't you think?"

Satan: Can I have a word with you, Mc?

M!Mc: Let me just…

M!Mc: Puts the child down.

Satan, exasperated: Dearest…

Back in the living room

M!Mc: Hey kid, what’s your name?

Child: Child.

Satan: …

M!Mc: …

In the kitchen, again

M!Mc: We have to give her a name.

Satan: Mc, no-

HELLO I SAW THAT YOU WANT TO WRITE FOR LUCIFER AND I'M HERE TO HELP

Imagine for a moment: Lucifer takes the reader out shopping for clothes (since they don't have very much).

I imagine the reader is picking out lots of little dress shorts and blouses, overall femboy/ouji aesthetic, and Lucifer is having a hard time keeping his eyes and hands off of the reader. It boils over a bit when the reader asks Lucifer for help zipping up the back of his shorts and Lucifer starts getting handsy.

It starts with his gloved fingers gliding over your hips, then sliding down your thighs. He says you look gorgeous, right as his hands wander to the soft bulge between your legs. You watch him through the dressing room mirror as Lucifer gropes at your slowly hardening cock.

He asks how it feels, and it takes you a moment to realize he means the clothing, not his squeezing. You barely mumble out some semblance of a yes, too entranced by his free hand carefully undoing the buttons of your blouse to cover up with anything else.

"Tell me how good it feels." He instructs, untucking the white chiffon from your shorts and dragging down your fly.

This is risky and you know it, but you've wanted this attention for too long to say no now.

Ahem if you don't write it I might cough cough

“tell me how good it feels..”

pairings: lucifer x m!reader

summary: what a precious little thing you are..

tw: EXHIBITIONISM, public sex, DUBCON/NONCON, mindbreak. size difference, lulu makes teases your small dick (lol), master/sub dynamics, ownership, etc.

notes: i read this ask at around 3am and nearly died. if you have already written it or are still planning to, please send it to me - id love to read!

here is my (short) little take on it.

"tell me how good it feels." he instructs, untucking the white chiffon from your shorts and dragging down your fly.

your breath hitches in your throat, words struggling to come out as he palmed your hardening cock in his hands. it was so obscene doing something like this in public, and yet, lucifer acted without hesitation nor shame. the feeling of his cool leather gloves against your crotch only caused you to melt further, stumbling in his arms.

“at a loss for words, y/n?” the demon chuckles, kissing a spot behind your ear that made you tremble. wearing such innocent, frilly looking clothes made this feel more provocative than usual. lucifers suit and dark clothing contrasting with your own reminded you how powerful he was. you were sure no one back home would believe you if you told them a demon from hell had started feeling you up in the fitting room stall of all places.

lucifers skilled hands tugged the shorts down a bit, just enough so that your cock would be exposed. you closed your eyes shut, too bashful to watch him tease the tip, smearing all of your pre on his glove. “you like when your master touches your cock, pretty boy?” the demon licked the shell of your ear, hot breath against your neck.

“y-yes master!” you gasped, your hands grabbing into his forearms for measure. the loose white blouse you were wearing felt suffocating, atmosphere growing hotter and hotter. the older man didn’t stop, simply cooing at your feeble state. he loved feeling in control. with every weak moan you let out because of him, his pride only grew larger.

“look at you, little thing. your cock won’t stop dripping when i touch it. you’re such a slut sometimes, y/n.” lucifer emphasized the last sentence by squeezing the base of your dick, fluid dripping onto the floor with how much spilled out. you whined again, practically humping his hand as he coo’ed at how pathetic you looked.

“lucifer, i can’t, n-not here!” as much as you loved when lucifer played with you like a toy, the last sliver of dignity in your mind screamed at you, reminding yourself that you two were in public. lucifer frowned, his brow furrowing in slight annoyance.

“you will. do you forget who owns you, little human? me. you are mine.” he groaned, practically panting on your neck as he pumped your cock almost painfully hard. it felt so intense, your whole body was shaking, moaning wantonly in the dressing room.

“..and if i order you to cum all over yourself like the slut you are, then you will. so, cmon boy. cum for me.”

Nsfw more of my biting kink but with the little shit- Belphie 𓃾 !!!

Belphie biting you when you’ve been ‘misbehaving’ (you’ve been paying more attention to his brothers ‘n the others, then you have to him) and he wants…no, needs to leave his marks all over you.

It’s such a great way to remind everyone that you belong to him.

Also the type of little shit to loudly ask where the marks he left on your neck the night before went…..with everybody around just to watch you turn red and glare at him. (He loves it:))

And!!!! And!!! Belphie biting you when he wants to tease you~

Especially when he isn’t giving you, what you really want in bed.

Taking his sweet time to tease you by nipping at your skin here and there, mostly across your chest and neck. watching as you buck your hips against his….enjoying the little whines falling from your lips as you beg him for more, well, anything really! You just need more!!! and Belphie’s being a fuckin’ tease! His only response being to bite harder into your skin making you cry out his name even louder <3

# ⋆ ⩉ EUNA 𝂅 🖋 : I just started replaying obey me and all of my memories about my priest!oc came running through my mind.. So I thought of writing about him all over again.

❛ 𒀭 : DISCLAIMER — OC slight, bad grammar, RELIGION.

❛ 𒀭 : READER — Male , You/Yours

❛ 𒀭 : LINKS — Request rules

The priest, deeply rooted in religion and spirituality, was known for his soft and gentle nature towards others. His faith guided his every action, and his compassionate demeanor brought comfort to those around him. Though, everything changed when he was transported to the realm of Devildom.

At first, he struggled to comprehend the reality before him. The world he had been immersed in, where religion was forced upon him at every turn, seemed to crumble around him. His gentle facade began to crack, giving way to anger and disbelief. How could this be the true nature of existence? What do you mean that there's a school between heaven and hell? Celestial realm? Devildom? Him becoming an exchanged student? None of this is real.. The idea of interacting with the Demon King or the seven demon brothers filled him with disgust and fear His once-kind eyes now held a flicker of hostility, his voice tinged with bitterness as he struggled to reconcile his beliefs with the reality of Devildom.

The priest's journey was one of internal conflict and anger. As he grasp with the unknown of this new world, questioning himself everything he had once held dear. His faith, once a source of strength, now felt like a burden, a reminder of the lies he had been fed throughout his life. As the priest character go through Devildom, his once-unshakable faith began to waver. The demonic realm stood in stark contrast to the existence he had led, causing him to question his beliefs. He have never seen anything like this in the book.

As the priest go deeper into Devildom, he began to uncover secrets that challenged his understanding of good and evil. He witnessed acts of kindness and compassion among the demons, qualities he had once believed to be exclusively human. The lines between right and wrong began to blur, and the priest have a hard time grappling with a newfound sense of uncertainty.

As soon as Priest was assigned to be with the seven demon brothers, his reaction was one of shock and disbelief. He stared at them as if they were something disgusting, his eyes wide with horror. The sight of Diavolo, Barbatos, the demon brothers, sent a chill down his spine. This was a far from what he was forced to believe, he had envisioned, and struggling to understand with this new reality.

Priest's attire was a stark reminder of his life back in the human realm. His simple priest uniform and the cross necklace that hung around his neck stood out most. The demons, with their elaborate unifotms and otherworldly appearances, looked upon him with a mixture of amusement and curiosity. Wondering how can a priest react.

Their mischievous antics and irreverent behavior just makes the Priest frustrated. Of course the demons probably dislike priests or any religious people because of how they imagine demons to be. And when the moments where he had to act like a therapist, the priest gets angry. Asmodeus and Mammon, in particular, seemed to take great pleasure in pushing the priest's buttons, their playful taunts and suggestive comments leaving the priest flustered and off-balance.

Throughout his journey, Priest's unwavering faith and gentle nature served as a beacon of hope in the darkness of Devildom. His interactions with the demon brothers, though often fraught with tension and conflict, has revealed the hidden depths of everyone, and the priest found himself questioning his own beliefs and assumptions about the nature of good and evil. Priest initial interactions with the seven demon brothers were marked by tension and misunderstanding. His opinions, shaped by the teachings of the human realm, clouded his perception of the demons. He was struggling with the differences between the biblical depictions he had been taught and the reality that stood before him.

Lucifer, the eldest of the brothers, was the embodiment of Priest's deepest fears. The priest's apprehension was understandable, his every move guarded and cautious. Like any human would act when being forced to live in a different realm that they never thought it was real.. Lucifer, though understanding of Priest's reactions, Lucifer is sometimes angry by the constant side-eye glances and mistrust coming from Priest. Their interactions were filled by misunderstandings, both of them struggling to bridge the gap between their different worlds.

Mammon, the second eldest, was a force to be reckoned with. Priest realized he had signed up for a game he wasn't sure he could win. Their constant fights and yapping were by moments of unexpected empathy, as Priest relating to the demon brothers despite his best efforts to maintain his religious beliefs. Mammon grew frustrated with Priest's tendency to bring religion into every conversation, urging him to let go of his rigid beliefs and embrace the reality of Devildom.

Leviathan, the third eldest, evoked a sense of nostalgia in Pries. The demon's nature reminded him of the edgy teenagers who had once hate his attempts at religious guidance or even visiting the church. Despite their clashes, Priest and Leviathan discovered a shared interest that brings them close, allowing for moments of unexpected connection. Especially when it comes to animals, like Snake. Priest often finds Leviathan's Ruri-Chan's merchto be concerning which made Leviathan to judge him for believing into something for so long only to found it everything was a lie.. both of them have not talked about it since..

Satan, the fourth eldest, priest's initial hesitation and desire to avoid the demon were quickly overshadowed, drawing him into Satan's orbit alongside the other demons. As Priest navigated his feelings towards Satan, he found himself questioning his faith and beliefs. They quickly bonded with the liking of books.

Asmodeus, the fifth eldest, a constant confusion for Priest. The demon's flirtatious attempts were met with confusion, as Priest struggled to understand Asmodeus' intentions. His pure nature, often underestimated by those around him, made him particularly uncomfortable with Asmodeus' unexpected touches. Priest still tried to be understanding of Asmodeus' interest in fame and beauty, recognizing it to his own experiences in the human realm.

Beelzebub, the sixth eldest, was another confusion that Priest found himself with. The demon's seemingly nice and gentle personality. To Priest, that's not how a demon should be. Despite his instincts telling him to maintain a safe distance, Priest is drawn to Beelzebub's normalcy. He even caught himself cooking and baking for the demon of gluttony, a task that brought them closer together despite Priest's best efforts to keep his guard up.

Belphegor, the youngest of the demon brothers, was the one Priest disliked the most. His disdain for unmotivated individuals was well-known, and he saw Belphegor as someone who was not making the most of his life. At first, he never intended to help the demon at all but something in him made him to. After traumatic encounter with Belphegor, where he was betrayed and choked, left him with a deep-seated fear. Whenever Belphegor entered the room, Priest made a tried his best to appear normal, but he couldn't help but leave the room.

Other headcanons is that Priest has a secret love for sweets, particularly chocolate chip cookies. He often sneaks into the kitchen late at night to bake batches of cookies, only to find Beelzebub eating too. Which made both of them to talk together as they eat (Priest couldn't help it.. I only wonder how he'd react to the angels) Talking about sweets, one time Barbatos offered him baked goods and Tea.. Oh he couldn't wait to see Barbatos after that encounter.

Despite his stern and serious demeanor, Priest has a hidden talent for playing the piano. In the human realm, he always plays the piano. He often plays softly when no one else is around, pouring his emotions into the music and finding a sense of peace that he struggles to achieve in his interactions with the demon brothers.

Priest has a collection of small, intricately carved wooden crosses that he keeps hidden in his room. Each cross represents a person he has helped or a struggle he has overcome. And sometimes, puts it infront of his door whenever he's fed up with the brothers.

Priest has a soft spot for animals, particularly stray cats. He often leaves out bowls of food and water for them, and he has been known to sneak them into his room for a warm place to sleep on cold nights. He was once caught by Lucifer when helping Satan to bring a kitten home during the heavy storm and scold him for it.. that night, it seemed like Priest was more angry towards Lucifer than Lucifer is angry at Priest..

Priest has a secret journal where he writes down his thoughts and observations about Devildom and the demon brothers. He uses it as a way to process his experiences and writing down the new things he have learned in this realm.

Priest has a habit of humming softly to himself when he's deep in thought or when he's trying to solve a problem. The melodies are often hymns or prayers, a subconscious way of seeking guidance and clarity. Right when his and Belphegor's relationship goes, He hums different songs for him to sleep.
