#not that Henry doesn't have his reasons obviously- but that doesn't mean it isn't cold and sad.

MC Has A Nightmare
Prologue
The brothers and the MC had spent the last movie night watching horror movies. Now, usually you're pretty good at compartmentalizing the movies you watch and reality, but for some reason this one really stuck with you. Enough to cause you to have a nightmare. Too scared to go back to sleep, you have no choice but to run to your favorite demon brother for comfort.
Lucifer
Now it isn't uncommon for Lucifer to be in his study at all hours of the...day?...night?(idk devildom time is weird)
In fact, he's fallen asleep on his desk more times that you can count
And far more than he'd ever admit
Fortunately for you though, he was still awake when you knocked on his door
He sounds annoyed when he tells you to come in, but it's gone when he sees your face
You explain to Lucifer that you had a nightmare and that you wanted to see him
He smirks, tilting his head at you
You can feel his patronizing gaze as he watches you in your Pj's, standing at his door
As much as he wants to tease you, he can't help but beam at the thought of you searching him out
It's not surprising, after all he is the Lucifer, but you're also his human and there's something about it being you that gets his heart beating
He once again glances at you, watching him like a deer caught in the headlights
Sitting back in his chair, he pats his lap for you sit
"If you can be a good little human and sit patiently while I finish my work, we can take this back to my room."
Who knows if you'll actually be sleeping or not though 炉\_( 汀掳 蜏蕱 汀掳)_/炉
Mammon
The great Mammon can sometimes admit to his lesser attributes
It's hard not to when you're constantly reminded of your shortcomings by your entire family every day
Greedy? Yeah, it's in his name after all
Scumbag? Sure, fine, hurtful but he can accept it
But COWARD?? Nah fam, do people still say fam?
Anyway, he can admit to all of these things, BUT
he will never EVER admit to being scared
So, when he wakes up in a cold sweat, memories of his dream seeping into his conscious mind yet slowly slipping away
Of course he swears it has nothing to do with the movie he and his brothers (and MC) watched just a few hours prior
And he CERTAINLY does not scream at the top of his lungs when he sees you standing at the foot of his bed in the pitch black
But for real, MC, not cool. Not that he's scared or anything
When he finally calms down (not scared!!) and you manage to tell him of your own nightmare,
Well, who would he be if he didn't care about his human??
Of course the great Mammon will let you sleep next to him
And no, MC, he isn't blushing, it's just hot in his room ok???
Also, he is totally bragging the next morning about how you obviously knew he was the bravest demon in the devildom to have come to him
馃槫馃槫
Leviathan
This fucking otaku hikikomori ass bitch over here
Dark circles under the eyes looking ass
*Ahem* sorry
Needless to say, he's so engrossed by the show on his television he doesn't even hear you enter his room
It isn't until you tap his shoulder that he even BLINKS
Once he sees you, though, he groans about how you are interrupting during his favorite part
After you manage to explain to him, his whining is now replaced by ridiculing
Of course he starts making fun of you, calling you a normie and a baby for being so scared at a movie
And leave it to him to bring up the fact that you literally live in the devildom with demons, so what movie could really be scarier than that?
Feeling worse about yourself, you cross your arms and pout, walking up to Henry's fish tank
Then you start talking about Levi like he isn't there, bringing up TSL and how Levi doesn't deserve a Henry for being so mean
Needless to say, he ends up being more upset that you're talking to Henry and not him that you end up making up silently and falling asleep to the sounds of anime in the background
Seriously, that fish needs a raise for babysitting the both of you
(Levi stans don't come for me, I love this fucker but it's true!!)
Satan
To your surprise Satan wasn't in his room
It took you longer to find him then it should have, however, seeing as the only logical location would be the library
but, in your defense, you are recovering from your nightly terror, so
Once you do manage to find him, though, you're actually no longer afraid
Not expecting to run into anyone else this late into the night, Satan is surprised to see you lurking at the entrance of the library
He motions you over and asks you what's wrong, not taking his eyes off of his book for more than a second
Feeling slightly self conscious, you're hesitant to tell Satan about your bad dreams
However, lying to Satan is nearly impossible, so the truth comes out on it's own
To your surprise, and to his credit, Satan doesn't tease you or laugh in your face
In fact, all he does is listen
Once you finish talking, he turns your attention to the book in his hand
First, he asks if you've ever read it, and when you tell him no it's as if a switch goes off in his head
Suddenly, in the midst of Satan's rambling and you somehow finding yourself leaning into his side,
You end up forgetting about your nightmare entirely 馃檪
Asmo
Unlike the others so far, Asmo is the only one to actually be asleep when you find him
You might have regretted waking him up if you weren't so afraid, but it was a risk you were willing to take
As to be expected, Asmo wasn't too happy to be woken up so late...early...whatever
In fact you were just about to leave him to his rest when he grabs you by the arm and pulls you into him
He hums onto your ear about repaying him for being so rude
As this is the typical response from Asmo in regards to...well everything, you're actually not surprised
You end up pouring your heart out to him with him rubbing your shoulder
"Now, now, MC, keep furrowing your face and you'll cause wrinkles! Wouldn't want the second prettiest creature in the devildom to get wrinkles, now would we?"
He comforts you, in his own little way, and somehow it works
Whether or not it's because you take the compliment or if you think he's ridiculous, it works
Now this next part is up to you, but Asmo does make you an offer to stay the night
Surprisingly though, he seems genuinely open to solely cuddling back to sleep
You can decide if it goes further than that 馃槈鈽猴笍
Beelzebub
Waking up after a nightmare is one thing
It's another thing entirely when you wake up to the sounds of the avatar of gluttony devouring everything in the kitchen
Especially how close it is to your room, you suddenly fear a monster lurking under your bed
Luckily for you it's only Beel having his late night...uh...snack? Sure.
You're shocked when he turns to look at you, some sort of red meat hanging out of his mouth
You have half the thought of still being in the nightmare, just waiting for a hunger fueled Beelzebub to switch to gnawing on you next
Much to your relief, however, he swallows down the last of his food and offers some to you
You explain that you're still shaken up from your dream and he gives the most puppy eyed look before giving you a hug, still munching away
You even believe he says something comforting between mouthfuls...it's the attempt that matters
Eventually he either gets his fill or, more likely, he eats everything
Point is, he now scoops you into his arms completely, finally able to form a coherent sentence
He explains that he's used to Belphie cuddling with him when he has a nightmare and finds that talking about it usually scares them away
At least, that's what Belphie tells him
You talk about the movie and how you felt stupid for letting it get to you, the whole time he's stroking your head/back listening to everything you say with a hum
It's hard not to feel relaxed after that
It's up to you if you go back to your room or if you stay with Beel
He gives you the option, and even offers to stay in your room for the night
Needless to say, you were no longer afraid the rest of the night
Belphegor
Ah yes it is he, the avatar of sloth, the narcoleptic man himself, the wears sunglasses to class but can't disguise his snoring, the sleepiest sleeper of them all
He's the one you expect to be passed out and you're not wrong... entirely
Belphegor is always tired, but it's not just because it's his nature
Surprisingly, he's a bit of an insomniac when it comes to sleeping at night
After all, it can hardly be a sin when you're supposed to be asleep now can it?
So, while he is lying down in his bed with his eyes closed that by no means entails he's actually asleep
In fact, he's been tossing and turning for hours and only stopped when he hears you enter
The two of you have an unspoken agreement
If one of you finds your way into the others room in the middle of the night there is always an open invitation to cuddle
So, much to his expectation, without a word you silently slip under his covers
To your shock, however, Belphegor turns over and hooks his arms around you, burying his face into your shoulder
"You want to talk about it?"
"Will you stay awake long enough to listen?"
He chuckles but you start telling him anyway
As you predicted, he fell asleep almost immediately
You honestly wouldn't have it any other way

Warnings: Fluff with a small amount of angst because Levi doubts himself 馃槥
Brothers Masterlist | Dateables Masterlist
Levi with an Animator S/O
"Okay MC, I know we just finished 'Swimming Only Leads to Hot Mermaids,' but I was thinking since we are already watching otomes, we should watch another series that everyone is recommending online!" Levi says this as he begins to pull out one DVD and place in another while bouncing on the balls of his feet like an excited puppy.
"I guess I could watch one more series, but it better be a good one. Sure the mermaids were attractive, but there wasn't much of a plot." MC says with a yawn. A quick look over to the clock, and it reads 11:48 PM in a blinding blue light. Not too late for one of Levi's normal bingefests, but a little too late for MC when they have classes tomorrow.
"No, I promise this one is good. Everyone is talking about the art style. They say it is so original that it's captivating." Levi walks to the small futon briskly and plops himself down next to MC as he continues to ramble about the art. His voice slowly trails off as the opening begins to play.
As the music fills MC's ears, they perk up and a small smile appears on their face. "Levi, could this perhaps be, 'I Went to Hell For a Weekend and Got Stuck in a Love Heptagon with Seven Incubi'?"
Levi faces MC in shock. The look on their face is quite smug. (In all seriousness, it reminds Levi of Mammon when he wins poker, but he doesn't want to be think about his brother while looking at MC. So he pushes that thought away.) This anime came out only the day before their bingefest. And even then, Levi had this copy pre-ordered for this very occasion and it arrived before any stores were selling physical copies. There is no way a normie like MC could have heard about its release. Does this mean MC isn't such a normie after all?
"You heard of this show already?" The surprise in his voice was impossible to hide.
"Yeah, I have heard of it." MC smiles and chuckles quietly, "I have never actually seen it, but I have heard the opening quite a few times."
"Oh..." Levi sighs. He was so stupid. Of course MC had heard the opening. It is all over his Devilgram and they were on their phone for part of the last show, so they obviously just heard it on there. Levi deflates looking solemn. It was just a pipe dream that MC would ever be interested in his yucky otaku interests.
"Hey! There is no reason to be all sad just because I know the name of the show. I still haven't seen the whole thing. My first time watching will still be with you Levi, isn't that special enough?" The smile on MC's face seemed sincere enough, but the words that came out of their mouth made blood rush up to Levi's cheeks. Their first... did they really mean to say it like that?...
As thoughts begin to flood Leviathan's head the show began. It was true the art style was captivating. So captivating in fact, that he forgot about his embarrassment. But MC's words still lingered in his mind as he watched the show.
---------------------------------------------------------
"Well, I am dead tired." MC stands cracking their aching joints as they look at the clock. 2:37 AM. It was that late already? "I think I need to head to bed Levi. I have classes in the morning and I need at least a few hours of sleep."
"Are you sure?" Levi was just starting to enjoy MC's presence. At the beginning of the night, he was on edge trying to make everything perfect. Levi did want to mess up by being a yucky Otaku and give them a reason to leave him all alone. But as the night progressed, (and more snacks were consumed) he felt increasingly more comfortable with sharing his favorite shows with MC. "I have other shows we could watch to pass the time, or we could play this new game I got-"
MC walks over to Levi and gently sets their hands on his shoulders, "Games and anime are great, but what I need right now is sleep." MC watched as Levi's face filled with a blush and his eyes flashed with hurt. "I am not leaving because I am mad... or sad... or anything really. I just need to sleep, Leviathan." Their voice was barely above a whisper as they said his name. How could he disagree with them when they said his name like that; all the while, looking deep into his eyes. He felt like he could explode.
As MC turns away, the demon in question then sighs mutters a quiet "okay" under his breath. "Don't worry, Levi. This isn't the last time I will watch anime with you. I promise we can do another one of these when another new anime comes out." MC begins to pick up their things. A blanket they brought with them to keep warm in Levi's cold room and the rest of their human snacks. "Besides, I really liked that one, and I have heard they are already making season two." As they speak, MC makes their way across the room to the gigantic tank.
"Wait. How do you-"
"Good night Henry. Good night Levi." And with that, MC leaves. Closing the door behind them.
How did MC know about a second season? Even he, the Great Otaku Levi, has not heard about a season two on any forums or on any other website... After thinking about it, Levi suspects it's probably on Devilgram like the opening was. To prove his theory, he pulls out his D.D.D. and opens up Devilgram to the 'I Went to Hell For a Weekend and Got Stuck in a Love Heptagon with Seven Incubi' page. He scrolls through their posts and finds the opening, like he predicted, but what he didn't predict was their most recent post.
"This show would not have been possible without MC. Thank you for making such a great story and great art to go along with it!"
Levi reads the caption once, twice, thrice and is speechless. The photo for this post is none other than his MC standing with a hand drawn piece of the protagonist. He can even see their signature in the corner when he zooms in! He knew that they liked to draw, but he never thought they would make an anime.
Without thinking, Levi gets up and begins to run to MC's room. He needs to know that this isn't some sort of elaborate prank that MC and Satan brewed up to make him like a normie more.
The door to MC's room busts open, "MC!" The room is completely dark except for the light shining in through the doorway.
"Levi...? Is that you? Is something wrong?" MC's voice is soft and laced with sleep. If this were any other time, Levi would have screamed over their cuteness, but today he had a mission. He immediately marches up to the half asleep MC and promptly shoves his phone in their face.
"Did you make 'I Went to Hell For a Weekend and Got Stuck in a Love Heptagon with Seven Incubi'?" MC sits up and squints as their eyes adjust to the blinding screen and look at the post.
"Um... yeah. That's me isn't it?" Silence takes over the room, before Levi begins to scream.
"WAHHHHH! MC, why didn't you tell me!" Thankfully with the phone only being pointed at MC, they can't see the blush spreading across his face.
"Well, I didn't want you to treat me differently because I make anime." Laying back down as they speak, MC tucks a pillow under their head and looks up to where they guess Leviathan's face is. "Besides, I thought it was really cute how you were fanboying, and I didn't want you to stop because you knew you were in the presence of the creator." A small smile makes it's way on to MC's face as Levi feels his own get hotter.
Now covering his face, Levi quickly makes his way to the door while muttering, "You can't just say things like that..." As he begins to close the door, he pauses and opens it up again while looking back, "Can you tell me more about your show tomorrow, MC?" His voice sounds small compared to his previous scream.
"Of course Levi. We can talk for as long as you like."
