also omg he told me his name was Pandemonium what a lying shit also are you okay? is peter okay? and i have no idea what a goetic demon is is it like a spirograph?
It's really not! It's fine! Everything went fine! It worked!
[ So many exclamation points.... ]
Pandemonium...? Wait, let me check that.
[ Wait until you actually see the notes she's made, she's been hitting the research pretty hard over the last several weeks. Trust the Ravenclaw to be all about that.
But sorry, Louis. She's going to be going silent for a good ten minutes. ]
That actually... makes sense, in a way. 'Pandemonium' can be interpreted to meaning 'little spirit' or 'little demon'. I don't think he... technically lied. Just offered you something else other than his actual name?
I'm fine, it was scary? But I'm alright. Peter is, too. He's just... tired. My plan was to try and help Peter gain some power over Paimon's influence but I think his 'ultimate' title is still wearing him down, regardless.
Um, no. It's not like a spirograph...?
Goetic demons are ones found in one of the five parts an occult book known as The Lesser Key of Solomon. In one part, Ars Goetia, it's concerned with conjuring demons. But the thing is he's not... well, how people think of demons, really.
that's a lot of exclamation points for something that went fine are you sure it's gonna stay fine? please don't die by demon luna i really like you and it would make me sad you don't want to make me sad do you? :(
huh okay well i'm still gonna call him panny it works all ways
ugh yeah that ultimate bullshit really threw everyone for a loop hopefully when it stops it'll be easier? idk
wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait so he's a genie? like do we get wishes??
I am using them for emphasis that everything went fine.
Honestly? I don't know. I didn't really plan on bonding myself with a demon, and this kind of magic isn't exactly my type of magic. So really, I don't know what this means from now on. But I do know that Paimon doesn't want to hurt me. I even asked him and turns out he has to answer my questions truthfully?
There'll be no sadness happening for you here, Louis.
That's what I'm hoping happens. I think no matter what, Paimon's going to be a lot stronger this month. But with doing this, I can stop him taking over Peter completely. I can keep Peter here. Paimon knows that I don't want Peter to disappear.
[ And, well... if that's what she wants as his 'summoner', then... ]
A genie, yes.
I guess so? That's essentially how he functions. He's mostly related to knowledge and secrets, but the books say he can also grant people 'riches'. Basically, he's a demon who's subservient to whoever's summoned him.
[ Is she essentially the boss of a demon? Kinda, yeah. ]
Huh, so basically you've put him on a leash? I mean, hopefully, this won't turn around and bite you both in the ass. But it might be better than him being lose and everything inevitably going to shit. I'm 100% on board for Peter never disappearing, please.
...Soooo that would be you? Riches are overrated but knowledge and secrets might be useful someday, you never know.
But honestly, keeping Peter stable is the most important part of all of this.
I hope so too. But I think it might be all okay. Paimon's not really meant to exist as he does, without a summoner. You can't give demons like him too much power or freedom or bad things happen. They... have to know their place? But that doesn't mean you get to treat them poorly, either.
That was part of the deal. I told him I wanted to keep Peter.
[ ........... yeah. She's got it bad for the gloomy boy. ]
That... would be me. Admittedly, I'm not really bothered about riches either. But yes, maybe knowledge could be good.
[ Trust the Ravenclaw to bond with the knowledge demon. ]
I mean. Sounds kinky but sure, if that's what does it, then so be it. I defer to your judgement on this one, demons are way, way out of my remit. You got an undead problem? I'm your guy. Not so much with this.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. You wanna keep Peter. 😊
Maybe he can drop some sweet knowledge for you, then. As a treat.
What? No! It's not anything like that! [ Louis please do not reduce what Paimon considers to be a very sacred bond between summoner and demon (and what Luna in turn has to respect) into... a sexy thing. It's not a sexy thing. ]
Oh, no. That's fine. You're certainly my go-to person for undead related matters. And honestly? I'm still learning, but I'm determined to learn as much as I can for Peter's sake.
[ ....... oh, gosh. It's fine, she's not blushing. ]
Well. Yes.
Here's hoping. He's... not really himself, completely. But that'd be quite useful.
[He can't help himself. He genuinely cannot. If he takes something with the gravity of which it requires, please assume he's been taken by a body snatcher.]
I'm sure he really appreciates everything you're doing for him. A+ girlfriending, right there.
You never know! I mean, maybe he knows some legitimately helpful shit. Weirder things have happened.
I do say so. [ Louis, please. Also there's a long pause in between that text and her next because she just has to stare for several minutes at the particular use of the word 'girlfriending'. Um. ]
We're not
I'm not his girlfriend, Louis.
I mean, we're... something? I don't know. [ Please help. ] We did go on a date but I'm not
We don't know. We're just working it out on our own, really.
so what you guys are doing that 'not a label on it' thing? i mean, i guess I can understand taking your time but also this is a nightmare dimension where either of you can go home at any second so if you want some solid advice you know from someone who's used to having to live every day like it might be the last don't hang around wondering forever okay? you don't wanna end up with regrets my friend :(
Labels come with a lot of expectations. And those expectations are a lot of pressure when it comes to people like Peter and I. We're just... doing our own thing in our own time.
[ But he... has a point and Luna feels a low-burning panic in the pit of her stomach. Losing Peter has been a deep-rooted fear for a while now, and forgetting him if she ever went home again is another, much newer one. ]
I suppose you do raise quite a good point for the whole 'carpe diem' approach. Rest assured, there's still something a little romantic happening.
[ See: the date they absolutely went on together at the start of the month. ]
only if you let them girl maybe you own labels or don't but just don't let yourselves end up regretting shit because you never know when you'll wake up and it'll all be gone
[His mentality has been hard forged. He's said goodbye to so many loved ones. He's buried more friends than years he's been alive. Double it, in fact.]
it comes from a nice place i promise only want good things for you two :)
I don't think there's anything I'd regret if anything like that did happen. I know it could all very well be gone, but I know it's been nice. I'm alright with that.
[ Honestly, the bar is low in terms of romance. Anything happening is really a miracle in of itself for her, and they've honestly come so far. If she went home tomorrow, with the very real possibility of dying in the next day or two? She'd be happy with what she'd had. But she does understand he's coming from a good place. ]
I know, Louis. We're working through things, I promise.
Oh, it's definitely more than just 'a little' better.
[ Peter kissed her cheek, Louis. That for her is just wild. ]
Thank you, that's nice of you. And I will think about what you've said, though.
[ One day, she's going to have to actually kiss Peter. You know. Like a lip kiss. Not a cheek kiss. She'd... really like that. That's one thing she'd really like to do, and Louis has... given her a (somewhat) gentle prod in that direction to doing something about that. ]

saying "i have done something somewhat questionable"
