[ there is... well, an archangel on the screen. He is not amused but to be fair, Satan never looks too amused. ]

I have been taken from Hell before I had the chance to do it myself. It saved me time, for sure. [ it's not the first time Satan has broken a timeloop, he is certain he could have done it again ] But I have to wonder about God. Do you think He will be wrathful enough for an apocalypse when He realizes I have left? I certainly think He'd love to lay waste to this world. [ Satan smiles, soft and gentle, but with a certain... coldness behind it ]

Regardless, at least this place isn't covered in humans. It's a big plus. [ he isn't happy there are humans around and still sorta wants to kill them all. BUT. At least there are many non-humans around too ]

For those who have heard of me, I am Lucifer, the Morning Star, the Old Scratch, Belial, Devil, Leviathan, the Serpent, whatever humans came up with. It's tiring to keep up with all the names you've given me. I usually go by Satan.

[ ooc: please read the permissions/opt-out post for Satan before interacting with him! And as a heads up, some icons I use contain nudity, so let me know if you'd prefer I don't use them ]

Oh, it's you.

[like he's just some other person and not the fallen angel himself]

Would He really lay waste to the world because you escaped? That seems pointless.

[granddevil]

Oh, nothing is above Him. You believe Him to be kind, until the moment you do something He does not approve.

And I was meant to be in Hell, not wandering in another Earth, free from punishment.

[dreamvour]

One would think that He would simply find a better way to keep you put, instead of throwing a temper tantrum.

People already believe you wander the Earth, I don't see why He needs to make a big deal of it when it actually happens.

Should I have heard of you? (She isn't the most knowledgeable or religious, but the way he talks makes her think she's missing out on something big!) It's nice to meet you~

(She thinks?)

Why do humans bother you?

[granddevil]

I said "for those who have heard of me". If you have not, don't worry. [ at all (= ]

Humans bother everyone. I'm simply someone who had to deal with it on a more personal level. Call me biased.

[earlylight]

I know! It got me curious. (All of it sounds like a juicy secret!)

They try their best, you know. It's about survival and being happy. There are plenty of humans who are worth knowing.

[ Oh! Lucifer's here... Well, that's interesting. This makes the third godly pantheon represented, that Sunny knows of. ]

Nice too meet you, Satan. I'm Sunny. --Is Satan the name you prefer? I wouldn't want to tire you out.

[ By all appearances, Sunny looks human, but she definitely is not. Not that there's really any way for Satan to tell over video. ]

I'm not sure He can do anything about it, though. He's stuck in a time loop along with everyone else from your universe. Even gods are not always powerful enough to break free from something like that. And, I haven't exactly been poking around the heavens to check, but the God of Gaia might not even be the same God you're used to, so He or She or They are probably not all that concerned that you're here.

[granddevil]

Yes, Satan would be preferred. It's what my Demons call me. [ "Lucifer" is the name his father gave him, so Satan doesn't particularly like it ]

It'd be certainly ironic if He were trapped in a timeloop himself, after inflicting that upon me for thousands of years. [ satan sounds amused ] But He was not in my universe at that time. God has not visited that place in many years.

[dayific]

Satan, then. It's a pleasure to finally meet you. I've heard a lot about you, but... I think that's probably not much of a surprise. You Judeochristians do steal a lot of the limelight these days.

[ Though, she frowns. What is this Satan's God doing abandoning His universe? That's... the worst thing for a god to do! ]

Why did He leave? Do you know?

[viralbullshit]

[ This place is already not what he's expecting at all, but to see someone calling themselves Satan? He'd brush it off if not for the honest-to-God, pardoning the expression, angelic form. ]

Humans are...a handful. [ It's the mildest thing he can think to say about them. ] Can't really blame you, especially not when they use your name as a generic boogeyman in some parts.

[granddevil]

They fear what they are told to fear, regardless of what it is. Human mind is simple like that.

[glitzandglamour]

[Here is a non-human to his core. Even as he shifts to point a finger at the sepia video feed, brow knit and smile challenging, metal clacks as his arm passes over his chest. Pale silicone makes up his every expression, metal panels flanking his cheeks. There's not a bone of human in this robot. No bones at all, really...]

Oh? Are we really standing in the same Tokyo...? Because there are humans all around, baby! [Cue Mettaton not picking up on Satan's uhhh intense desire to see them killed. He does detect the hostility, though. It'd be hard not to.] The more, the merrier! Is that really such a problem, Satan, darling?

[granddevil]

[ robots are not his specialty but then again, as long it's not human, Satan is pretty OK with everything]

You should visit Yokai kingdom, then. A lot less there.

And I suppose it could be a problem indeed. We will see. [ depends on how easy is to kill them ahem]

[hitokiri]

[ it's safe to assume he barely got this working which is probably also why he's holding it too close. he'll figure it out... maybe. ]

Dunno what the hell yer talkin' about, but since I ain't human I guess that means we won't have a problem anyway, huh? Where I come from there's power in knowing somebody's True Name, so it never hurts to have too many.

As for me, you can jus' call me Manslayer.

[granddevil]

[ pls learn technology, even the devil has]

No problem at all. [ Satan loves non humans, he has zero issues with them] And all my names were given to me by humans, so I suppose I can thank them.

What are you, Manslayer?

( well, isn't this interesting? the white haired young woman rests her chin on a hand as she switches on her video feed, wildflowers sprouting at random intervals across her bob.

she smiles, and asks a singular, very important question; )

What's Hell like?

[granddevil]

[ and he smiles back, of course.]

Are you familiar with Dante's allegory "Divine Comedy"? He describes it well, in it.

[sicklysweet]

[Well, this all sounds like a bunch of utter nonsense to Owen. Hell? God? That long list of names? He recognizes the name Leviathan, but the Leviathan he knows is nothing but chunks of ice, gore, and shattered puppet now.]

You think awfully highly of yourself, don't you?

[Cheerfully:]

What are you actually capable of that makes you so important?

[Will he regret asking that? Maybe. He honestly has no idea, but it's not like incurring someone's wrath has ever stopped him before.]

[granddevil]

Humans are the ones who made a big deal out of my existence. [ well. Also God.]

I suppose I'm capable of killing the world, though, therefor I do not blame them. [ that's probably the worst he did and to be fair, he had help from his demons. But you know, apocalypses are messy and it's hard to tell who did what, so Satan will take that blame at least]

[unsundered]

So even Gods differ between worlds, eh? My condolences on yours being so... recalcitrant.

[Idle, even languid. But that was an interesting sort of introduction (though he refrains from commenting on the list of names, which meant nothing to him). Almost as interesting as the glimpse into another star's cosmology.]

But if it's your dream to find a world without humans... you may be left dreaming for some time yet. Mortals of one shape or another seem to outnumber all else, across a multitude of stars. Such is my impression.

[And he's an expert after like a couple days here and staring at a few refugees. Won't stop him from his opinions though.]

Any particular reason for the distaste? There's plenty to choose from, I know.

[granddevil]

There are many Gods, in many different realities, worlds and universes. Mine is a petulant power-hungry child. [ and wrathful. And vengeful. And honestly horrible. People say Satan is shitty, that's because they never met his Dad. ]

I don't truly care about humans. They just happen to be in the way, most of the time. [ Satan leans back a little, the wings on his back working as a prop to keep him from falling back ] There was a time I destroyed them- [ on purpose, he means ] -but nowadays they feel like flies and mosquitoes:

You don't want them near you and will kill those who approach, but you have better things to do than to plot for their demise.

[ and satan did not really answer the question. because the reason for the distaste is... well, the person he loved fell in love with a Human Girl, and Satan has just about zero chill. ]

[overlies]

A shame you dislike humans, but I suppose there’s more than enough reason to tread that line.

[ as much as one would prefer cats over dogs, at least. ]

Welcome to the surface, Satan.

[ technically, is she a daughter now??? part of satan??? hard to say! makima is, at most, intrigued, and it’s hard to make her feel that way. ]

[granddevil]

[ all demons are his children! ]

A shame? And why is it a shame?

Thank you, I will make sure to enjoy my time.

[cupiditasmedendi]

[Does he think he should be answering this? No, not at all. Is he painfully, unbearably curious, because this Lucifer isn't much at all like the one he knows and despite his instinctive response to hearing that name, he still wants to know more?

Yes.

So he makes sure he's properly composed himself before he says anything. Though he isn't showing any of his angelic features currently, there's the lightest shine of gold behind his dark eyes that he can't quite stamp down.]

I don't think He's noticed.

never late~

[granddevil]

[ ohhh don't be so worried, your brother is totally not crazy and not murderous (=

And unlike Raphael, Satan is certainly showing all of his angelic features because why not. ]

For sure He has not. But then again, would He bother to come here Himself? [ Dad never came anywhere Himself. He always sent His Angel armies to do His dirty work, and He only showed up at the very end when all had been done. ]
