Elecâs expression drops immediately as the demon tells him to shut up. Axelâs wandering into some dangerous territory here, with his flawless lies and promises of stardom failing to ease the blow.
âI beg your pardon?â Maybe if they were friends (or if Axel was more pointedly a dick) he could brush the comment off as the usual banter, but itâs all too rude for the DLN to just let it fly. A âgive someone an inch and theyâll take a mileâ sort of situation.
Elec retrieves the autograph from under his bracer momentarily to make a point of checking the name. â-Axel, you seem like a fun guy, but youâre nowhere near fun enough to start giving me attitude. At all. I have fans- hell, I have impersonators!â He says, voice tweaking from rising incredulousness. âI was trying to get around this politely, but fine: I donât want to do it. Go embarrass yourself on TV.â
Axel blinks owlishly, his ears dipping down in anxiety over Elecâs words. He stutters for a moment, distressed and distraught over the outright rejection --- but pauses.
âAttitude? What do you mean by that? Arenât you a demon too?âÂ
Frankly, what Axel had said was incredibly low-tier for usual demon etiquette, as the Dark Hero is notably more polite than most. Arrogant for sure, and quite self-obsessed, but not outright evil --- to a point where it damages his reputation! It didnât occur to him that he might be talking to a human, who tend to be a touch more sensitive than his fellow devils.Â
Not that it really mattered. Demons donât cater to other people, anyway. His interest is simply piqued, a sly smile worming its way onto his face and his claws fidgeting against frets.
âWow, this is even better! A human and a demon, head-to-head, one-on-one, the best of both worlds!! And if you have fans, that means this is my perfect chance...!â he giggles to himself, and turns to address Elec with a complete lack of tact, âAlright, Iâve decided! Weâre doing this! No going back. Iâll find you anywhere!â
