I've been studying writing and trying to be a better writer and part of that is asking myself "how can I make this situation worse" and today it was spilling coffee I guess

    Tsir’ah should get a decent meal out of Mary’s chagrin, only enhanced by the spilt coffee now!

    But does a demon feeding off negative energy have any direct (detrimental?) effect on the person, too, or do they only eat up what would have dissipated unused otherwise?

    This would explain drama creators on youtube. And the media. And politicians. I could keep going.

    Mary is all sad now. Maybe because she hear the sad story about the previous host, that she willingly allowed a demon into herself, or realized that Samur and company has to be doing something tangentially misery inducing.

    clarification question: do demons need to *cultivate* misery to survive, or do the just need to be *around* misery to survive?
    bc if it’s the latter, then orev’s apparent plan of finding miserable people to help seems like it’s a feasible way to survive without making too many enemies

      On the TAPAS website there is a whole extra 15-ish pages of content that…. actually still doesn’t fully answer the question. Dang it.

    Samur acts more like a Demon than most Demons.

    They could just work in any number of government departments. Demons cultivating human misery would be completely indistinguishable from the usual experience.

    while i can see samurs point, i honestly think that orev and his buddies do have good intentions…..and to be fair, humans are very good at making themselves and those around them miserable without zero influence from demons. so really i donĀ“t think we have to fear a demonic famine anytime soon ;-)
