Hi I have a head cannon scenario about mc returning to the hol because they were sent on a mission by the sorcerer society and when they get back the brothers sees them covered blood and mc reassures them by saying "Oh don't worry this isn't my blood"
𩸠Itâs In My Blood! đЏ
The demon brothersâ reaction to the MC coming back covered in blood!!
Includes: Lucifer, Mammon, Leviathan, Satan, Asmodeus, Beelzebub, and Belphegor
CW: Mentions of blood, violence, implied murder, Levi almost throws up (he also passes out), theyâre all pathetic for u, Satan is kinda cringe methinks.
Luciferâs used to you being busy: youâre competent, organized, and strong enough to work with the Sorcererâs Society. He doesnât like it, but he respects it. Until tonight.
He hears the door first: a slow creak of hinges that shouldnât make him tense, but they do. Heâs halfway through paperwork when your voice floats through the hall. âIâm home.â Calm. Too calm.
When he turns, the first thing he sees is the blood.
Your clothes are drenched, streaked down your sleeves, dripping off your fingertips onto the polished floor. Youâre standing there like itâs the most normal thing in the world: messy hair, tired eyes, faint smile.
âMC-â His tone breaks before he can stop it. He crosses the distance in seconds, hands hovering but not touching. âAre you hurt?â
You glance down, blink, and laugh softly. âOh, donât worry. This isnât my blood.â
The words donât help. They make it worse.
His expression hardens immediately, that sharp, barely-contained fury that he uses when his brothers do something reckless. But now itâs turned on you. âThatâs not reassuring.â
You shrug, half teasing, half exhausted. âItâs the truth.â
You try to brush past him, but he catches your wrist: not roughly, just firmly enough that you stop. Thereâs blood smeared across his glove now.
âTell me what happened.â
His voice is calm, but itâs the calm of a man holding back a storm.
You try to downplay it: âA rogue familiar. The mission got messy.â
He doesnât buy it. He looks at you like he can see through every word, every forced smile. âYou nearly died.â
âBut I didnât.â You give him that tired grin again, trying to lighten it. âMission accomplished.â
Thereâs a long silence. The kind that stretches thin and heavy. Then, quietly:
âYou forget sometimes,â he says, âthat youâre still human.â
He takes a deep breath, removes his bloodstained gloves, and cups your face carefully, thumb brushing the edge of a cut you didnât realize you had. âYou canât keep walking into danger like this. Not alone.â
âYou worry too much,â you whisper.
âAnd you donât worry enough.â His gaze softens then, the edge breaking into quiet affection. âYouâre shaking.â
You hadnât noticed until he said it. He pulls you closer before you can argue, letting you bury your face against his shoulder. He smells like clean parchment and dark magic. His heartbeat is steady, grounding.
âNext time,â he murmurs against your hair, âIâm coming with you. If the Sorcererâs Society has a problem with that, they can answer to me.â
You laugh, weakly. âYouâd terrify them.â
âGood,â he says. âMaybe then theyâll stop sending you to clean up their messes.â
He doesnât let go for a long time. Not until heâs sure the shaking has stopped, and the bloodâs been washed away, and the faint scent of iron is gone from your skin. Only then does he finally exhale.
Later, when he thinks youâre asleep, he sits beside your bed: quiet, expression unreadable. âNot your blood,â he murmurs, almost to himself.
Mammonâs the first one who hears you come home not because heâs paying attention, but because he was literally leaning on the front door waiting for you like a golden retriever with attachment issues.
The second the door swings open and he sees the blood, he stops breathing. For a full two seconds. His brain just blue-screens.
âMC!! MC!! MC WHAT HAPPENEDâ?!?â
His voice goes up at least three octaves. He sounds like a dying kettle.
You try to speak, but you canât even get one word out before he SCREAMS:
âSTAY STILL, IâM GETTINâ THE KIT! DONâT MOVE- DONâT YOU DARE MOVE-â
And then heâs gone. Full sprint. Full panic.
You hear multiple crashes, a yell, a curse, two thuds, the sound of something breaking, and then..
Heâs back, skidding into you with⌠a first-aid kit, a roll of duct tape, and a plushie he grabbed for emotional support.
âOkay okay okay⌠lemme- lemme see where ya bleedinâ-â
His hands hover everywhere but never touch, because heâs afraid one wrong move is gonna make your spleen fall out or something.
âItâs not my blood.â
Literally freezes like someone hit him with Medusaâs gaze.
Slowly, very slowly, his expression changes from pure terror⌠to confusion⌠to angry relief.
ââŚWhy would ya walk in here covered in someone elseâs blood?!â
He starts wiping your face with trembling hands, muttering under his breath:
âStupid humans⌠stupid sorcerers⌠stupid society⌠sendinâ ya out alone like yer some kinda immortal or somethinââŚâ
Heâs trying to hide that his hands are still shaking.
You try to tease him. âAww, were you worried?â
âWorried?! I thought ya DIED, MC. Like dead dead. Like Belphieâs-favorite-bedtime-story dead!â
Once he finishes checking you over for injuries (twice), he pulls you into a tight hug. No hesitation.
His head buries into your shoulder.
ââM never lettinâ ya leave like that again,â he mumbles. âNot without me.â
You pat his back. âIâm okay, Mammon.â
âYa ainât allowed to look like that again,â he grumbles. âI aged like fifty years in five minutes.â
Itâs only when you lift your arms and he sees more dried blood crackling on your sleeves that he yelps again:
âNOPE! SHOWER NOW! GOINâ WITH YA! NOT LIKE THAT BUT LIKE⌠NEAR YA! JUST IN CASE-â
And for the rest of the night, he follows you everywhere. Not subtly. Not coolly.
Hovering. Protecting. Muttering threats at the Sorcererâs Society under his breath.
When you finally fall asleep, he sits on the floor by your bed, back against the frame, arms crossed.
âI ainât sleepinâ tonight,â he whispers, watching your breathing steady. âNot till Iâm sure ya ainât disappear on me again.â
And he doesnât. He stays awake the whole night. Just in case.
Levi doesnât hear you come in, he senses it. Like a startled cat.
He peeks out of his door because you were supposed to be gone on a mission and he just, yâknow⌠wanted to check you werenât dead. Totally normal. Totally fine. Definitely not worrying himself to death.
Then he sees you. And all the blood. Levi makes a noise no human language can describe.
Something between a squeak, a scream, and a Windows error sound.
âMCâM-MCâWHâWHATâNOâN-NO WAYââ
Heâs already shaking. Like whole-body trembling. He steps forward, and then immediately steps back. And then steps forward again.
And then he bends over at the waist like heâs about to throw up.
* You calmly say, âLevi. Itâs not my blood.â
He stops. Blinks. His eye twitches. And then he just⌠drops like a ragdoll NPC whose physics glitched.
You rush forward and kneel down, shaking him gently until he gasps awake and IMMEDIATELY starts dry heaving.
âIâI THOUGHT YOU WERE DEADâMCâTHAT MUCH BLOOD IS NEVER GOODâNEVERâNOT EVEN IN SHONENâEVEN IN SHONEN THEY DIEâANDâANDâYOUâANDâANDââ
You try to reassure him again, but heâs spiraling too fast to hear you.
âDID YOU FIGHT A DEMON KING?! A CURSED BEAST?! A WHOLE RAID PARTY?! MC, YOU ARE LEVEL ONE COMPARED TO THEMâYOU CANâT JUSTâYOU CANâT JUST WALK IN HERE LIKE A BLOOD-COVERED DLCââ
He pauses. Realizes heâs yelling. Immediately turns red.
âS-Sorry⌠I just⌠I thought⌠I canâtââ
He hides his face in his hands.
âI donât do well with⌠b-blood. Or⌠you being hurt. Or⌠you being gone at all.â
You sit beside him, leaning gently against his shoulder and he stiffens like you just upgraded him to premium affection content.
âLevi, Iâm okay. Really.â
âButâbut it wasâthere was so muchââ
âI still almost threw up.â
You laugh, and it actually calms him a little. He peeks at you through his fingers.
âMC⌠next time⌠can you⌠I dunno⌠send a message? Orâor a selfie? Or maybe⌠maybe one of those âI survivedâ stickers? I DONâT KNOW, JUST⌠SOMETHING??â
You pat his head. He turns bright red and looks like he might pass out again.
âAlso-â he mumbles, voice barely above a whisperâ
âIf you ever die, Iâm joining you. Just so you know.â
You blink. âLevi⌠thatâs not how-â
âTOO LATE, I SAID IT.â
He buries his face in your shoulder this time, trembling but clinging tight.
And later, when youâre showered and resting, Levi sits on the floor by your bed, wrapped in a blanket like a traumatized cinnamon roll, whispering to himself:
âTheyâre okay⌠theyâre okay⌠thank the anime gods, theyâre okayâŚâ
Satan hears the front door open and doesnât think much of it because heâs in the library, sorting through books and sipping tea.
But then he hears Mammon scream. Then Levi gag. That gets his attention.
He steps into the hall, ready to lecture them both, and then he sees you. Blood-soaked. Dripping. Pale and exhausted.
Everything inside him stops. Then it erupts.
Satanâs rage doesnât explode outward, not at first. It condenses. Sharpens. The air around him changes.
His voice is low, dangerous, the kind that makes even demons freeze.
âOh, donât worry. This isnât my-â
He doesnât let you finish. His footsteps echo like thunder as he closes the distance in seconds: hands clenched, jaw tight, pupils blown wide with fury.
Itâs not a command. Itâs a threat wrapped in grief.
âSatan, really, this isnât-â
You touch his arm, and he flinches at the blood not because heâs squeamish, but because he thinks itâs yours.
Linked books on the shelves around you begin to tremble. Pages flutter. A pressure fills the air.
âTell me their name.â
You finally manage to get the words out.
âItâs not my blood.â
The rage pauses mid-eruption like someone hit a giant, explosive âpauseâ button on the wrath in his chest.
ââŚItâs not⌠your blood?â
His eyes narrow, analyzing every inch of you.
âIs any of it yours? Any at all?â
And just like that, the explosive rage melts into something even more dangerous: cold, calculated fury.
âThen whose blood is it?â
âA demon we were sent after. It⌠got messy.â
He repeats the word like itâs poison.
âAnd they sent you alone?â
You explain that the Sorcererâs Society assigned you a mission, that you couldnât refuse, that you handled it fine. He's quiet for a moment. Too quiet.
And then he smiles. Itâs not a nice smile. Itâs the smile of a demon who has decided on murder.
âYouâre not going back there without one of us.â
His voice is soft. Soft in the way that means heâs seconds from violence.
âTheyâll learn not to use you as a disposable pawn.â
He gently wipes a streak of blood off your cheek with his thumb. His touch is tender. His gaze is lethal.
âI should have been there,â he mutters, voice cracking just enough that you feel it.
âIf Iâd known⌠if Iâd sensed even a fragment of danger, I-â
He stops himself. Clenches his fists until his knuckles go white.
âYou matter. More than they understand.â
When he walks you to your room, he stays close: not hovering like Mammon, not trembling like Levi. Heâs calm. Dangerously calm.
After you fall asleep, he doesnât leave immediately. He stands there, watching your breathing settle, jaw tight.
And then he says quietly,
âIf that blood had been yours⌠the Devildom wouldâve burned.â
You donât hear it but he means every word.
Asmo is humming to himself down the hall, face mask on, nails drying, fully in his âself-care kingâ era when he hears the door open.
He turns around with a sparkle in his eyes:
âMC!! Youâre back sooo-â
He screams. Like, hand-to-chest, full-body, opera-level scream.
âA-AHHHH!! MC!! MC, WHATâWHAT EVENâISâIS THATâISâTHATâBLOOD?!?!â
He stumbles back into the wall like heâs about to faint. His face mask literally slides down his cheek from how hard he gasps.
âNO, NO, NOâMC, DARLINGâWHAT HAPPENED TO YOUâDONâT TALKâDONâT MOVEâDONâTâDONâT BLEED ANY FURTHERâOH DIAVOLO YOUâRE GOING PALEââ
âAsmoâŚItâs not my blood.â
He freezes. Blinks once. Twice. Then slowly rolls his lip gloss back onto his mouth like he needs strength for what heâs about to say.
âNow that I know youâre not dyingâŚâ
He points a perfectly manicured finger at you with pure judgment.
âTHAT SHADE OF RED DOES. NOT. SUIT. YOU.â
He launches forward in a flurry of offended shrieks.
âOh my DIAVOLO, MC!! Your undertones! Your vibe! Your aesthetic! You look like someone dipped you in tomato paste!!â
You try not to laugh as he circles you, snapping his fingers dramatically.
âThis is a CRIME, an absolute CRIME against beauty! Whoever did this to you needs to be arrested for TREASON!â
âNO YOU ARE NOT. YOU CANNOT BE FINE WHILE LOOKING LIKE A CORPSE COVERED IN THE WRONG PALETTE.â
He grabs your wrist and yanks you toward the nearest bathroom like a mom dragging her kid into Target.
âWeâre going to get this off you RIGHT now. And then Iâm giving you a deep cleanse, a gentle exfoliationâŚâ
His voice drops. Dead serious.
ââŚand then I want every single detail about who made this mess.â
He smiles. Not his cutesy smile. Not his flirty smile. His demon smile. Sharp. Beautiful. Terrifying.
âBecause if someone splattered their ugly blood all over my lovely MC⌠I want to rip them apart for ruining your skinâs natural radiance.â
He puts a finger to your lips.
âShhh. Let me be upset for you.â
His voice softens, warm and trembling at the edges.
âI donât like seeing you covered in red unless itâs lipstick. My lipstick.â
Once heâs gotten all the blood off and confirmed you have zero wounds, he finally slumps against the counter in relief.
âUghhhh, MC⌠I was sooo scaredâŚâ
His lower lip trembles. He hides his face in your shoulder like a child.
âPromise me youâll come back in pink next time. Or at least something flattering. Something soft. Something you.â
And when you laugh and hug him back, he squeezes you tighter, whispering:
âNot your blood⌠but you still scared me half to death. Donât do that again.â
Beel hears the commotion from the kitchen: Mammon shouting, Levi screaming, Satanâs magic crackling.
He drops the snack he was about to eat and jogs toward the noise, confused but alert.
He turns the corner and sees you standing in the doorway, drenched in blood. His breath catches. But instead of panicking, yelling, or fainting⌠He just stops. Completely still. His expression softens into something heartbreakingly sad.
His voice is so gentle it hurts.
He walks toward you slowly, like heâs afraid youâll break if he moves too fast.
No fear in his tone. Just steady, quiet concern.
âNo. Itâs not my blood.â
You smile a little. He stares at you. Not at the blood, at you. Searching your face, scanning for injuries, checking your breathing, making sure youâre standing upright.
Once he confirms youâre not in pain, his shoulders relax a little. And then comes the silent anger.
Beel doesnât explode. He doesnât growl. He doesnât show fangs. His eyes just harden. A slow, simmering fury that comes from deep in his chest, the kind that makes even demons step back.
âThey sent you alone?â
His tone is dangerously calm.
âSort of. They didnât think it was that dangerousâŚâ
His jaw clenches. Thatâs the only sign heâs angry. But the air around him changes.
âThe Sorcererâs Society was wrong.â
He looks at your clothes again and his brows pull together.
âYou couldâve gotten hurt. They shouldâve known.â
His voice is soft, but firm.
âThey shouldâve sent help.â
You try to reassure him, but he quietly shakes his head.
âMC⌠youâre strong. I know that. We all know that.â
He looks down, eyes full of worry.
âBut youâre not invincible. And that scares me.â
He steps closer, gently wiping a smear of blood from your cheek with the back of his hand. He doesnât flinch or recoil. Beelâs never been afraid of blood.
But seeing it on you makes his stomach twist in a way hunger never has.
âNext time,â he murmurs, âIâm coming with you.â
A vow in his warm, earnest voice. When he hugs you, itâs careful. Like heâs holding something precious.
You feel him exhale against your hair a long, slow breath of relief that you came home.
âIâm glad youâre okay,â he whispers.
âAre you hungry? I made dinner before you came back.â
He insists you eat something. Watches to make sure you do. And later, as youâre settling down for the night, he sits quietly by your door, leaning against the frame.
Because Beel doesnât scream or rage. He protects because he failed before. And tonight, heâs not letting anything else get close enough to hurt you.
Belphie wakes up before you step through the door. He always does when somethingâs wrong. Itâs that instinct of his, the same one that kicks in when Beelâs starving or when danger prowls the halls of the House of Lamentation.
He sits up on the attic bed, eyes groggy, hair a mess, but his stomach is tight. Something feels⌠off. Like a nightmare he hasnât had yet.
Then he hears Mammon shriek. Levi gag. Satanâs magic flaring like wildfire. And Beelâs steady anger.
Belphieâs heart drops. He recognizes this atmosphere. Heâs felt it before.
Heâs already halfway down the stairs when he sees you. Covered in blood. Standing in the doorway. Breathing.
But that doesnât matter, the sight hits him like a memory to the skull.
That day in the attic. Your body. The blood. The smell. The silence.
He freezes mid-step, pupils shrinking. His breath hitches, barely audible.
His voice cracks on the first syllable. You turn toward him and smile weakly.
âBelphie. Iâm okay. Itâs not my blood.â
It doesnât help. It doesnât reach him. Not immediately.
He walks toward you slowly, too slowly. Like heâs afraid youâll vanish if he blinks.
His tone is quiet. Dangerous. Too close to the voice he used the day he killed you. You swallow.
âIâm not lying. I swear. This isnât mine.â
He stops right in front of you, touching your cheek with the very tips of his fingers like heâs scared to touch too much and confirm something horrible.
Then he suddenly pulls you into him. Arms tight. Desperate. Clinging.
His voice muffles against your shoulder.
âYou smell like blood.â
He hates it. He hates how familiar it feels. How familiar you feel like this.
âI know,â you whisper. âIâm okay, Belphie.â
He shakes his head. Slowly. Like heâs in a trance.
His voice breaks. He grips your shirt tighter.
âI thought I would have to watch you die again.â
Thatâs when it hits him: itâs not your blood. Not your wound. Not your final breath.
He pulls back just enough to look at you, eyes trembling.
âA demon the Sorcererâs Society sent me after,â you explain. âIt got messy.â
Thatâs all he needs to hear.
He says it plainly. Eyes lidded, voice cold.
âThey donât care if you get hurt. They donât care what they put you through.â
You open your mouth to rebut, but he presses a hand over your lips.
His tone softens but the intensity in it doesnât.
âIâm not letting them use you like that. Ever again.â
He guides you upstairs, half dragging you, half hugging you, refusing to look away even once.
âYouâre sleeping with me tonight.â
Not a suggestion. Not a request. Not even a demand. A necessity.
When he tucks you into bed, he curls around you protectively: arms around your waist, legs intertwined, chin resting on your shoulder.
His hand stays over your heart, feeling its steady rhythm like he needs proof.
âIâm not losing you,â he whispers. âNot again. Not ever.â
And as you drift off, he keeps his eyes open, watching your chest rise and fall. Making sure this time, you stay alive.
Later that night, when youâre dreaming peacefully, he whispers to himself:
âIf they ever send you into danger like that again⌠Iâll kill them before they get the chance.â
And the worst part? He means every word.
When you opened the door to the House of Lamentation, blood dripping down your clothes and pooling onto the floor, seven demons froze in place as if time itself stopped breathing. Theyâd all been waiting for you together, restless and anxious because your mission with the Sorcererâs Society ran later than expected. Lucifer was halfway through lecturing Mammon about pacing holes into the floor. Levi was nervously scrolling on his D.D.D. Satan had been pretending to read the same sentence in his book for half an hour. Beel kept checking the window. Belphie dozed fitfully on the couch. Even Asmo couldnât relax enough to paint his nails.
Then you stepped inside, and the room shattered.
Mammon screamed first, high and panicked, sprinting toward you like the world was ending. Levi choked on his own breath, gagging between shock and terror. Satanâs book slipped from his fingers, hitting the ground without him noticing. Asmo screamed so loud the windows rattled. Beel stared at you like heâd forgotten how to speak. Belphegor jolted awake so violently he nearly fell off the couch. And Lucifer⌠Lucifer went dead still, the color draining from his face in a way none of them had ever seen before.
âMC?!â Seven voices, overlapping, cracking, desperate.
You forced a tired smile. âDonât worry. This isnât my blood.â
But relief didnât come. It only made everything worse.
Lucifer moved first, closing the distance in three strides, hands hovering but afraid to touch you. The rage in his eyes burned so sharply the air felt like it vibrated. âNot your blood?â he repeated quietly, as if tasting the phrase and finding it poisonous. âThen why⌠do you look like you barely survived a war?â His fingers brushed your cheek, trembling despite how controlled he tried to seem.
Mammon practically shoved him aside, grabbing your face with shaking hands. âBabe, babe what the hell?! Why didnât ya call me?! Why didnât ya call ANY of us?!â He wiped at the blood on your skin and made a strangled noise when it smeared instead of disappearing. âI thought you were⌠I thoughtââ
Levi pressed himself against the wall, pale as a ghost, eyes darting wildly between you and the puddles on the floor. âOh no⌠oh no⌠oh no⌠this is like episode 97 of The Time I Reincarnated as a Demon when the protagonist comes back half-dead⌠MC I canâtâI canât handle this in real lifeââ He looked one second from fainting again.
Asmo approached slowly, tiptoeing around the blood, face twisted in horror not at the gore, but at it being on you. âDarling⌠you look absolutely awful⌠this shade of red is doing you NO favors.â His voice wobbled. His hands trembled as he reached out, stroking your cheek gently. âWhy would anyone do this to your pretty skinâŚ?â
Satan said nothing at all. He simply stared at you with eyes that promised violence, fury radiating from him like heat from a furnace. The moment you met his gaze, he stepped forward, lifting your chin with a single finger. âTell me who did this,â he said quietly, too quietly. âI wonât ask again.â
Beel was the gentlest. He knelt right in front of you and took your hands carefully, like you might crumble if he gripped too tight. His voice was soft, rough around the edges. âYou smell like blood,â he whispered, and it broke him more than anything. âMC⌠you shouldnât ever come home like this. You shouldnât have to.â His thumbs brushed over your knuckles, steady and warm. âYouâre safe now. Weâll take care of you.â
Belphegor reached you last but when he did, it hit the hardest. He grabbed your sleeve, eyes trembling, breath shallow. âYou looked⌠you looked like this the day IâŚâ He didnât finish. Couldnât. He buried his face into your shoulder, arms wrapping around your waist in a vice grip. âDonât ever walk in here looking like that again. You have no idea what it does to me.â
All seven closed in around you then, forming a tight circle: a barrier of bodies, warmth, magic, and raw emotion. Mammonâs chest pressed to your side, arms around you. Belphie clung to your waist like you might vanish. Levi clutched your sleeve, trying not to faint. Beel held your hand against his cheek. Asmo gently stroked your hair. Satan stood behind you, protective and vibrating with unspoken wrath. Lucifer rested a hand between your shoulder blades, grounding you with the weight of someone who almost lost everything.
They didnât let go. Not when you explained the mission. Not when you insisted you were fine. Not even when you tried to step forward.
Instead, they slowly, carefully, guided you to the bathroom. Seven pairs of trembling hands washed the blood from your skin. Warm towels. Gentle touches. Quiet murmurs of your name. Luciferâs palms steadying your shoulders. Mammon massaging shampoo into your hair with a softness he didnât know he had. Asmo running warm water over your arms. Satan silently checking every inch of skin for injury with clinical precision. Beel holding your hand so you wouldnât shake. Levi handing you clean clothes with red face and watery eyes. Belphie pressing kisses to your temple each time his hands passed your neck.
When you were finally clean, dry, and changed, they guided you to bed, not letting you walk alone for even one second. Lucifer pulled the blanket over you. Asmo tucked the corners in. Satan wiped a final smear of blood from your jaw. Beel pressed a snack into your hand âjust in case.â Levi set up the pillows. Mammon lay down beside you protectively. Belphie curled around you like a second blanket.
And the others joined. All seven. Surrounding you. Holding you. Breathing with you. You fell asleep in a tangle of limbs, warmth, and quiet whispers:
Seven demons. One human. And the unshakeable truth that none of them could survive losing you, not again, not ever.
