Barbatos

[butler-barb]

As per Lord Diavolo's wishes, I have created this account for cultural exchange purposes. I believe this will be a great opportunity to get acquainted.

But before we proceed, I shall lay down certain rules that must be abided:

—No nsfw or suggestive asks <mod is a minor> —No hate speech against any person/group will be tolerated —Please keep cursing to a minimum

My profile picture was created by the talented @barbcvnt

Well then, ask whatever questions you may have in mind.

[butler-barb]

Me? Lose interest in my beloved unknown species of ancient creature who happens to make really good tea and food and is also my husband? I could never!

“Husband” might be a bit misleading, dear sheep. Did you forget what I told you?

[butler-barb]

Hi yes hello its me yknow the one who stuck a ring on your finger like two months ago and then ran away? Well anyways i bring more tea from my trip!

(//hi mod. Yes i should be asleep ik but shhhhhhh sleep schedule is nonexistent rn//)

And here I thought you lost interest in me. It’s nice to see you again, dear sheep.

(//lmao and Im supposed to be paying attention in class)

“Hello Barbatos! Leona speaking. I intended to head over and teach you how to make shawarma but it seems fate (and a certain sorcerer I won't name for your peace of mind) got in the way. I just got back from visiting my mother and have all the ingredients. Would you like me to head over and teach you? We can have tea afterwards 💖”

//fuckass Tumblr won't let me link the link in the phrases >:(( maybe cause i'm on anon?//

It will be my pleasure, Leona, but please, make sure you got rid of that shady piece of rubbish before you come here. Maim him if you must, but do not, under any circumstance, bring him anywhere near me.

Is being temporarily blind after visions a normal side effect?

[Bumps into a table.]

Is there something that can be done about it?

(Ooc: Special powers and their unfortunate side effects)

Careful—!

*Barbatos steadies you as you bump into the corner of the table.*

Why don’t you sit down first? I’m afraid your condition does not fall under my area of expertise.

Nothing says true heartbreak than lovingly preparing a stew for an hour, leaving to get the bowls, only to come back and find your culinarily challenged boyfriend standing over the pot.

[butler-barb]

My condolences…

[satansnekonook]

The people need to know, Barbatos… How is it that you raised him and yet your culinary skills are millions of miles apart?

[butler-barb]

Some cases cannot be helped.

*running toward the butler with an evil squeak from the other side of the hallway*🐁

*before suddenly turning back into human form midway (fyi: fully clothed)*

( ;;° ∆°) .... Oh, welp.. lets pretend like nothing happened then!

Thats better. Now, how do you reckon I should make you compensate for the inconvenience you caused me?

[lucifersalcove]

I saw that Barbatos stepped on you.

@butler-barb

Pardon? Barbatos has never stepped on me?

[kaytheberry]

Okay Pridey Mc Pridey

//this image has awakened something in me…Lucibarb…

[lucifersalcove]

I see. This was...by mistake. If you cannot tell by the positioning it was a mere fumble.

//mwahaha its giving lucibarb >:3

[butler-barb]

Was it, now?

[malleuslefthornn]

barbatos art!

trying out a new artstyle..

[butler-barb]

Barbatos, tell me, please, is there a reason only Lord Diavolo wears metal accessories on his horns? I was making amulets and other things from gems and rocks for humans before and it included metal accessories so I'm thinking about making some for demon horns and your horns are giving me the most inspiration.

Would you like to be my model or wear something I'd manage to make sometime? I'll try my best 🥺

✨Mikoto the exorcist✨

There is no particular rule for wearing adornments, if that is what you are asking. Much like any other form of jewelry, they are a matter of tradition, status, or simply personal preference. In Lord Diavolo's case, it's all of above reasons.

I was unaware you worked with gemstones and metalwork. It sounds like a rather meticulous craft. I imagine it requires a great deal of patience... My horns are a lot more delicate, and much different from your usual demon. But I trust your craftsmanship.

Given your relationship with a certain sorcerer, I usually find it prudent to determine whether there is a second objective hidden beneath the first. And in my experience, there usually is... That being said, if you genuinely wish to design something for me, I would not object to it. I appreciate the effort that goes into creating something by hand.

[koto-side]

Okay then I guess some emerald green details with silver metal (not exactly silver, because it's expensive as hell), judging by your demon form outfit I could use some triangle shapes too and what about shininess? Not too shiny?

[butler-barb]

Whatever you think would suit me best.

[butler-barb]

🐑🎀 -

I have wondered for a short while but

What exactly will you all do once my time comes? I mean..I'm still human, eventually I will die.

...

That is a rather difficult question.

You are correct. One day, your lifespan will reach its natural conclusion. That is the nature of humans. It's inevitable. When that day arrives, I imagine I would have little choice but to continue carrying out my duties, as always.

Though, if am to be honest, I would miss you a great deal... There would be moments when the temptation to interfere would become rather difficult to ignore. With the ability to stand outside the ordinary flow of time, one begins to imagine all manner of selfish possibilities...

Fortunately, that day is not today. I believe our attention would be better spent on matters of the present.

Do you think I would end up here again after I die? I doubt the Celestial Realm would take me after all.

[butler-barb]

As a spirit, perhaps, if you are unlucky. But I am not well informed on this particular matter.

[butler-barb]

🐑🎀 -

Is there a particular and valid answer as to why seemingly one too many demons really want to harm or kill me?

Aside from being human, I refuse to take that as a valid reason because I've been here for long enough that it shouldn't be new.

Perhaps the reason is that you are no longer "merely a human". You have the ability to make the most influential figures in the Devildom to bend to your whims. Not merely because of your pacts, but because they trust and adore you. Individuals like you inevitably attract attention— both in the form of admiration, and resentment.

That being said, if someone has threatened to harm you recently, I would prefer knowing who rather than philosophizing about why. It tends to produce more practical results...

[butler-barb]

Barbatos? What is a human supposed to do if they feel sad/unloved :(( (not trying to project on you lol)

There is no concrete answer for that, feelings are rarely cooperative.

If you feel sad, then I would first suggest treating yourself with the same kindness you would offer a loved one. Humans have a curious tendency to extend compassion to everyone except themselves. You would be surprised how often a warm meal, water, proper rest, and the company of someone you trust can accomplish.

As for feeling 'unloved', that is a particularly cruel thought, because it often convinces a person that it is an objective truth. But, being unloved, and feeling unloved are rarely the same thing. There are many people who care deeply for others and never find the right words to express it. Others assume their affection is already understood and leave it unsaid. Humans are remarkably poor communicators for a species that spends so much time talking.

And regardless, your worth and place in this universe does not depend on other people's perception of you.

Why don't you have a seat? I'm sure a warm cup of tea and some sweets will make you feel better.
