Money, status, a reasonable amount of power. Is that what you want?

[kind of. wrinkles his nose.]

Food and a place to sleep. Status and power sound complicated.

[This is a very simple request?]

Certainly. I would naturally provide that. Is that really all?

I can't really think of anything else. I mean, that's on top of maintaining my body, but if you don't do that it's really your loss, so whatever.

[Already kind of wondering if he summoned the right demon for this... But maybe a demon without ambition is best.]

That's fine. I will maintain your physical form and see to your needs.

Then I'll kill whoever you tell me to.

[at least he's cooperative?]

...I see.

[Well, that was relatively painless. He offers Mika his hand.]

Then let us seal the contract.

[i can't wait to come up with a reason for his body to get fucky but for now he extends his right hand like a person who has use of it and everything, taking McGillis's.]

Mmhm.

[There's a small surge of magic and sparkles around them, flooding into both as the contract seals them together, bonding them. The magic circle dispels from around Mika.]

For now... I'll have to find something to call you other than Barbatos.

[he calmly steps out from where the circle was, but to the side rather than straight at McGillis.]

Too obvious? Well, you can call me whatever you want.

[He looks up at the ceiling in thought, than at the demon.]

Hm.... Mikazuki... Perhaps?

Does it have a meaning?

The crescent moon.

[looks. up?]

...Works for me.

Mikazuki it is. I suppose I should show you your room.

If you want.

[he gets a room? sweet. like he knows he basically asked for one but he could also just sleep under McGillis's desk or sth too, he's not picky.]

[He digs a chocolate out of his pocket, offering it to Mika as he heads up into the main house.]

I will have to find a reason to have you close. I somehow doubt "new secretary" suits you. Bodyguard, perhaps?

[Um. Yes. Yoink.]

Definitely the second one.

Do you like chocolate, Mikazuki?

Yeah.

[unwraps it. puts it in mouth.]

Me too.

[He watches a moment, smiling faintly, and then shows Mika down some fancy hallway to a pretty nice room.]

Is this acceptable?

[kind of. checks out the room, looking a little out of his depth for a second.

but ultimately just goes with it.]

Sure.

Very well. You will accompany as my bodyguard starting tomorrow. Breakfast is at seven. Ah, and I think we will get you some more fitting clothes, first thing.

[And perhaps more chocolate.]

[but my ancient and giant fuckoff military coat that was probably given to me by orga last time i was summoned because vague handwavey gestures the au]

Is that everything for now?

I suppose. Was there something you wanted to do?
