#obey me new lesson

[levia-chan]

I had such a funny thought running through my head. I know that it has already been written about, but I will post this post anyway.

Just imagine: The MC were sitting doing something in the living room, the brothers were there too, in general, everyone was doing their own thing.

And at some point, the MC are like, "Hmm, I'm all numb. It is necessary to stretch out" and begin to crunch the limbs, the back. They get a kick out of it, but there was a deathly silence in the living room.

After a few seconds, the brothers are in a panic, because, oh my devil, man, did you just break your back?!? And hands with a neck?!?!?! What should we do?!??! You're going to die!!!

MC would probably be sitting with such a face "🤨", and Solomon would be laughing somewhere in the corner of the room at the ignorance of the brothers.

Babe, Wake Up. New OM World Lore Just Dropped!

So. Nightbringer Lesson 22.

(spoilers, obviously)

The Father of Demons

While cleaning the library, MC finds a book -- one that has the same lines narrated by Solomon in the Prologue video. The book, like the video, ends abruptly at "the demon's name was..." as the rest of the book is gone, pages torn out.

The brothers wonder what the name could be, and Mammon insists it must be Nightbringer, to which Asmodeus agrees. Then, we find out that Satan learned some interesting information from a Celestial Realm book.

So the Celestial Realm also knows of Nightbringer -- but as "the father of demons", thought to be the very first demon born in the world. They go on to say Nightbringer has been known by other names as well, but otherwise, there isn't a whole lot more information on him. Okay, Simeon, please go home real quick and see if you can get this book in undamaged form for us.

That certainly brings a whole new weight to Nightbringer's identity, if he is indeed supposed to be the first demon ever to exist. So far, the game has been heavily hinting that Nightbringer is a version of Barbatos, and this new information would seemingly match up with one of the chats in OG where Barbatos mentions he was never a child, as well as the stories Asmodeus mentions of Barbatos being strong enough to be Demon King himself.

However, the identity of the child, as well as what Nightbringer's actual goals are with MC, is still to be revealed, and this doesn't help to actually clarify any of those questions yet.

The Secret of the Little D.'s

Another major thing we learned is about the Little D.'s -- and that is that they are technically fairies or spirits that came from a tree that the Fairy King used to tend, back when the Fairy King ruled the Devildom. The game goes on to explain that this makes them technically actually fairies or spirits, though the Little D.'s call themselves demons, so their true nature is a mystery -- especially since they are also sometimes born when a new demon is born into the world, but not always!

Interestingly, Barbatos also phrases it as those demons being chosen, so though it's extremely rare, it is seemingly not random, though we don't know exactly why or how.

New demons being born into the world also includes when fallen angels turn, it seems, since the extremely rare occurrence of these spirits being born alongside demons happened with all seven of the brothers after their fall.

So it's not that the main Little D.'s are just lesser demons of each particular sin, but that they are direct spirit counterparts to the demon brothers -- one for each of them, one for each sin.

Which brings us to ...

The Seven Sins

We've always known the seven brothers as the Avatars of the Seven Deadly Sins, but an interesting bit of information we learned in this lesson is that the brothers didn't know why they were given these particular titles, or if Pride, Greed, Envy, etc. were even known as the Seven Deadly Sins at the time the titles were given to them.

Beelzebub refers to them as "keywords", and we again establish it was the Demon King who gave these titles to the brothers. Diavolo says that if his father decided to give these titles to them, they must be important.

We know that the brothers were already exhibiting signs of their assigned "sin" even when they were angels, but as shown by Mammon's behavior in the past two lessons, the full force of each sin hasn't taken over all of them just yet. In fact, Mammon's greed has come out in a dangerous, powerful way as he becomes more of a demon.

It remains to be seen what, if any, relevance this has with MC losing their connection to the OG boys, but we know how they've changed by OG Season 1, where they fully embrace their sins.

We'll just have to wait and see!

[someiicecube]

I had this post sitting in my drafts for a while and I was suddenly reminded of it haha. 

Anyway, we all know this line from the main character synopsis, right? 

Only humans?

Is this purposeful on the writer's part to specifically mention the curse can only affect humans? Or are humans the only creatures mentioned because that's all the main character has had the chance to... curse with their touch?

Can the curse affect monsters?

Currently, we can't know one way or the other. 

Even if we did touch Leander, bare hand and all, it's Leander. The main character is under the impression that, because he's such a strong and powerful mage recommended to us by the mysterious doctor Kuras himself, it's just something he can do apparently—  although, we as the players know that's not all there is to it... just what is it? Is it part of his supposed monsterous-ness? Does he really know a spell that can protect against our curse? What's Leander's Jungle Juice really made out of? We can't tell yet...

Chosing Leander in this context is such a strategical plot point because he cannot answer our initial question. Is Leander not affected because he cast his little protection spell? Or is Leander not affected because he is/has become a monster?

However, we still can assume that the main character doesn't have full knowledge on what they are capable of with their curse— ya' know, probably being mostly surrounded by humans and such. So, the idea of touching even a monster is probably not a theory anyone wants to test (unless you're a mage, then please do it on some random monster and not the LIs for funzies... unless you want to).

Could this be a seed the writers are planting? Maybe, maybe not. But leaving the question unaswered (by Leander), again, makes the player and main character cautious by nature.

But what if they did slip up?

What if they slipped up and it happened on accident? 

Your bare fist colliding into Ais' chest, skin-on-skin but still a solid blow. Your hand desperately reaching out for Kuras' own, just wanting to feel his warmth once more only for a moment. Your palm sweeping against Vere's shoulder, pushing him away, your skin brushing along the thin translucent fabric. Or your fingers digging into Mhin's wrist as their dagger hovers right above you, their pulse hard against your uncovered touch.

It's startling. It's something you didn't mean to do. Fear grips you immediately; dread rises as your stomach falls. You are as quick to let go of them as your eyes are to look them in the eye and...

Nothing.

While, it wouldn't come as a shock to either Vere or Ais. Kuras, who the main character wouldn't know is an angel at this point, and Mhin are another eyebrow raiser for sure. It didn't affect them, when you know it should. If it doesn't affect them... that would only make the MC raise many more questions about Leander in turn. Ah, what a dramatic way to reveal the fact that the person you fancy is a monster.

Other notes and thoughts:

While, yes, an interesting idea to think about. I'm torn between wanting the monsters to be immune and 'fuck it, this curse affects everyone, even your pet rock ain't safe'. I can't help but feel this idea also lowers the stakes of the MC's curse... if done wrong.

Let's say this, the curse doesn't have an effect on monsters, right? But for each monsterous LI there will be a catch. Say, Vere, for example; a monster who lusts for power beyond him... having a human like yourself with such a deadly curse, well, who's to say it wouldn't give him a few ideas on how to use you it. What? You're still planning on finding a cure? Oh no, but you have him now, don't you? Why need a cure when you have him, your curse, and your soon-to-be mindless worshippers at your feet?

(Won't lie writing some of Vere's points made me think of Leander, but that's manipulation for you)

Or think Kuras, a doctor, an angel who passed through the shroud to watch over humanity. How would Kuras feel if the person he's grown so close to decides their curse isn't worth getting rid of now that you have him— can't you see the danger in yourself anymore?

Or try with, like some previous theories once said for us touching Leander: it doesn't affect him now... but eventually he will devolve into madness like the rest of everyone. But don't just apply that to Leander, now think of everyone else. Imagine finally finding someone you can touch without consequences. It's something that gets your blood rushing and heart pounting with a feeling your haven't felt in a while! However... the more and more you do so, you've noticed they've changed. They're more irritated, they've been having more headaches than normal, and their once beautiful smile twists into something dreadfully familiar. Congratulations, you've made your beloved mad with love! Here's the bad ending! Yipee!

Really, in the end it's all a balancing act, the stake were there and you don't want to take them away before the climax. If you do, place something else in its steed— something to raise them even further than what was initially thought possible.

nightbringer lesson 44

OH. OKAY. I HAVE A LOT OF THOUGHTS.

I'm still gonna try to keep it brief but woooooooo here I go! Spoilers below!

Okay, so biggest thing I picked up from this lesson was that Solomon's soul is not in his body. Right? Right?? Everybody else got that, too, right!??! Tell me I'm not insane. More on this later.

So we spent the whole lesson in Babel, where apparently you get to have a "moment of bliss" where stuff happens that makes you incredibly happy.

It starts out with everybody telling Asmo how they really feel about him, which is of course that he's beautiful and kind.

Then everybody ends up in TSL cosplay and Levi info dumps for several speech bubbles. (It's pretty adorable aldksjf.)

Then a ton of cats show up and Satan loses his mind. (But the cats also cuddle with everybody else because Satan's happiest when he sees cats cuddling with his family, the two things he loves in one place~)

Then everybody disappears because Mammon's moment of bliss is to be alone with MC (he's so bbg I can't take it). (Oh but I do feel the need to mention that everybody else was still there, they were just invisible which is SUPER CREEPY. Like c'mon MC was having such a cute moment with their first man...)

And THEN a bunch of food shows up and we think it's Beel's moment of bliss, but it's actually Belphie's because the twins are so close that Belphie is happiest when Beel is happy.

And then it like reverses and we have Belphie napping and all the boys in angel outfits, but it's actually Beel's moment. And they talk about this time they remember Raphael unleashing his spears on Mammon in the CR. And like then they feel guilty 'cause Satan doesn't have those memories but then:

Satan saw everything from inside Lucifer? CONFIRMED. And Lucifer was aware of it, too.

And then everybody's like what was Lucifer's moment of bliss? And they're dumb about it, but MC is like Lucifer's moment of bliss was this entire experience because he's happiest when his family is happy. D'AWW very precious but also kinda meh, imo.

Then Raphael comes back, but it's really him this time yay!

And THAT is when we find out that only your SOUL is transported to Babel. Everybody's physical body was left behind.

And I was IMMEDIATELY like oh. So THAT is why Solomon couldn't go inside. His soul is elsewhere. I don't think he's soulless, I think he's immortal because his soul is being stored somewhere that isn't his body. THOUGH it would also be interesting if Nightbringer was like... Solomon's soul gone rogue al;kjdsfjdf. But I don't think that's the case.

I think they're using this as a way to explain why people so often say that Solomon is more like a demon. Even though we also got this:

Hmm. Indeed. Solomon is NOT a demon. They were mad at him for not mentioning the thing about only your soul going into Babel.

Anyway, that's my theory and it's the only thing that makes sense to me though I have no idea what it has to do with anything.

I also thought it was interesting that Raphael is now part of the Brothers No More chat group with Simeon and Lucifer. I hope this means we'll get more of him!

And then this from the hard lesson because wow I hope this isn't just No 2 exaggerating.

LOL. You want to return something? BURIED ALIVE. That's so Devildom it's amazing.

Anyway, there were plenty of cute family moments in this lesson, but the potential hint about Solomon was the biggest deal, imo. What does it mean? I could be misinterpreting and maybe that isn't the issue at all? Maybe it's like... there's something wrong with his soul and removing it from his body would either expose something about him that he doesn't want the others to know or would like harm it further and put his life in danger? I dunno. He is still immortal, so.

My first thought was soul is elsewhere, but I do think having it like... reveal something about him unexpectedly would be interesting, too, now that I'm thinking about it.

I dunno, what do you guys think?

About the trailer....

Who even says this? Why was I swooning? Why am I smiling so hard? 😭

On a different note,

I missed the depth of his voice, really took me back to season 1 from OG where we took his hand before heading off to the Demon Lords castle.

It really makes me feel he's depending on the MC as much as they depend on him when he says this. I'm excited to see where this leads.

Also, I'm so glad they are bringing back the plot point with Simeon. Considering they gave us a trailer this time I'm guessing it's gonna be a good season. Can't wait :)

I loved the sleeping[legit] with MC headcannons

Might i trouble you for the part 2: dateables edition?

Hi Beautiful~ I've needed an excuse to finish up writing the headcannons [I did like 3 but I had no motivation]

Brothers Version ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dateables Sleeping Headcannons [With Gn!MC] Tw: Nothing, its Fluff ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Diavolo

~  He likes holding onto something as he is sleeping. A Pillow, MC, Lucifer, Plushie, anything he can ~ He will tend to hold MC close to him as he sleeps, specifically either next to him or laying ontop of him. Your choice there ~ He is a pretty deep sleeper, most things can't wake him up, the easiest way is a small peck on the cheek - it somehow wakes him up. ~ He has a tight grip, no escaping that. Also he snores decently loud. ~ He will wake up and pepper MC with kisses in the morning [if uncomfy with kisses then snuggles]

Barbatos

~ He sleeps like a plank. He doesn't move much, I mean if he moves a lot, he may roll himself into another world ~ He doesn't mind cuddles or anything, but any movement will wake him up. No matter how tired he is. And he doesn't snore, drool or mumble! ~ He will always stay in bed as long as he can with MC, but he does have to get up early to work ~ Always kisses MC's hand before leaving as to not interrupt their sleep. [If not kisses then pets their head gently]

Simeon

~ He likes to hold onto something in his sleep, which tends to be Luke sometimes ~ If you and him share a bed, he will hold you gently as you two are sleeping together ~ No one can wake him up, exceptions are Luke, Michael and MC. Who somehow can wake him up from his deep sleep ~ When he wakes up, he will always hold MC close to him and rub their back gently until they wake up.

Solomon

~ He moves a decent amount in his sleep. ~ He tends to accidentally mumble incantations and one time he had summoned 20 of his demons that he shares a pact with while asleep. ~ He likes cuddling, but prefers just holding hands when sleeping. ~ He will wake up earlier than MC all the time, he presses kisses on their forehead or neck to wake them up [Or just tickles their sides if they don't like kisses]

Luke

~ This Cinnamon roll likes curling up a bit in his sleep ~ He will snuggle into your side as you are laying in bed, mostly hugging your waist a bit ~ He makes sure there is space for Simeon in bed to so they can all snuggle ~ He drools a bit and mumbles about different things in his dreams ~ He will always wake up and hug MC in the morning as a hello as he is still sleepy. ~~~~~~~~~~

Hope you enjoyed :]

By the fuckin gods, the AUDACITY of the Celestial Realm to pull that shit off on the brothers??????

How fuckin dare you????? To just kick them out of your little angelic land, inflict trauma and stress on every one of them- to the point that the eldest made the physical embodiment of wrath from his emotions alone, strip them out of the status theyve been in their whole life AND -most importantly- being the entire the reason why Lilith died in the first place????? And them being just like:

"Hehe you seven did a little oopsie, but dont worry! We are very kind and gracious so we forgive you of all the bad behavior you brothers did :)))))) but if you dont follow our orders we will destroy the peace and quiet you found in your new home in the Devildom :)))

love and kisses, Celestial Realm ❤"

Hell fuckin nah. They need to get through MC first. Nobody picks on the brothers when MC is around. NOBODY! NOT EVEN GOD OR MICHEAL HIMSELF

[inhuman-obey-me]

Still love that Asmodeus truly has skeletons in his closet.

[legglesspotato]

What is your prediction for season 3 of Obey Me! Nightbringer?

Warning!: Spoilers

I’m sorry it’s late and I can’t think of any more options at the moment 😔 remember to check back tomorrow to see if you were right!

[misc-obeyme]

nightbringer lesson 45

Well... um... okay then?

As always, spoilers, thoughts, and screenshots below!

I mean, I dunno not a whole lot going on in this chapter. We got the Devildom Physics portion of the science eclair as Beel calls it. And our boy passes the preliminaries because Lucifer forced him to study like crazy. To the point where he's mumbling about Devildom Physics in his sleep.

Then we got the finals where the host is... Satan???

Apparently he just happened to know the railway executives who were sponsoring the event...

I mean... Belphie has a point lol.

Also interesting to note Luke's response when Solomon asks him why Simeon didn't come with him.

Simeon is Not Well. What does this mean? Ominous.

We split into groups and Mammon complains that he's not paired with MC. But his group is transported elsewhere. Then a little later, Barbatos laments that he wasn't in the same group as the Young Master. Belphie was a smartass this whole lesson I love that little shit, honestly.

He said the same thing to Mammon lol. Look how sad Barb is. C'mon Barbatos, shouldn't be happy you're in MC's group?? Sheesh!

They're all panicking a bit because the train is about to crash but they're trying to use Physics to figure out how to stop it before it's too late! Satan gets a little weird and leaves. MC follows him and...

BE STILL MY HEART. Poor baby was so riled up because he just wanted to protect MC 😭

Anyway, they figure it out and the day is saved, but Lord Diavolo's team still wins. Sigh!

However, MC is on the roof of the train when it finally stops and they're about to fall when all of a sudden-

Look at this man. His demon form does Something to me. He catches you at the last second dslkjfdfj

It turns out that Beel's wish was to have a cooking competition come to RAD...

Luke's response made me lol.

And even though Diavolo won, he agrees to have the competition at RAD anyway. So even though Beel didn't win, he still gets his wish! Awwww isn't that nice? I'm not sure where that's going... like if we're going to experience it the same way we did Asmo's wish. But uh... I guess we'll find out?

In the locked lesson, we see what Diavolo had to deal with and honestly, when that guy takes charge of a situation it's hot as hell (pun intended).

Hard lesson involved us returning to the story of the Little Ds. They're trying to cook with Luke and making a terrible mess and they keep getting him in trouble lol. They're adorable menaces.

Anyway, nothing too exciting happening here. No big revelations or anything. I think that's gonna be something that hits us next lesson. They seem to give us something easy and fun before whacking us with something.

I guess we'll find out how it goes!
