Paper Bonds

Fandom: Obey Me

Diavolo x GN!MC

Chapter 1 of 2

Enjoy this small two part ficlet I wrote while having a breakdown! Lol. I'm okay now and moving onto rewriting what was lost. So no worries!

Adult content, read at your own risk. Not beta read.

Diavolo was giddy. It wasn't every day a human auction took place in the Devildom. His father's sanctions had seen to that a few decades ago after a certain incident...

Smuggling in human cargo was much harder than regular goods. Regular goods didn't need air, water and sustenance to keep... humans unfortunately did. It was an easy giveaway as to what the 'goods' were and would result in the cargo being sent back to the human realm and the smugglers serving a heavy sentence.

The only problem was his appearance. As soon as someone like him walked in, they would pack up and flee, afraid that they were being busted and suffering consequences by the crown.

That's where Mammon would come in. Even though he was an Avatar, he was the Avatar of Greed. He always ran in the black markets, and no one seemed to mind. After thousands of years of not giving away information, or faining ignorance to his brother Lucifer, it was the worst kept secret in the Devildom. Mammon was sure not to mix business and pleasure, and it had afforded him the lifestyle that would ultimately get Diavolo his goal.

A human sold at auction.

Sending the Avatar of Greed with more money than he had ever seen in his life at one time would sound like a terrible idea, and it was, if he didn't have something Mammon desperately wanted. The transaction would go off without a hitch if the second born wanted to keep on his good side. He had come and collected his debt from Mammon once, and only once. It seemed to be a lasting message, as he always paid in full on time to the Prince now.

The auction would start at three in the morning and be done by five. They never spent more time than needed in one spot as not to get caught. By time the royal guards would hear of it and mobilize, they would be gone

As far as getting the human into the castle, magic made that easy. He had given Mammon a bracelet that would cloak any trace of you and Barbatos could then get them safely in through service corridors. He had already sorted his concubines months ago, as not to rouse suspicion. The only one who would know of the illegal dealings would be Mammon and Barbatos, they would not tell a soul.

Looking to his phone, he waited. Mammon would text him five pictures and he'd only have a moment to decide on which human to have Mammon bid on.

The first text came through and he eagerly opened it.

'Get Barbs ass to the fucking check point now. Shits sideways.'

Sideways. Perhaps the gaurds caught wind of it ahead of time, even he himself, the Prince had managed to hear of it. Although, if he wanted Barbatos to meet him at the checkpoint, he must have a human in tow...right?

---------

"Nah, nah, nah." Mammon stood in front of the bag. He and Barbatos had moved it through the corridor uninterrupted and unseen, making it safely to the concubine chambers. "I almost got fuckin' hauled away while getting the ownership papers. It ain't leavin' my hands till I get what was promised and a bonus. The bidding was up ta Forty million." The Avatar scowled. "Fuckin' human tried escapin' while shit was chaos. I had to chase 'em down and fight off some other bidders. That wasn't part of the deal. Plus they broke my shades." He pointed to his face, iconic glasses missing. "Those costed me a pretty penny, an I ain't payin' outta pocket for em'."

"Forty million Grimm. Expensive for a human." Barbatos tilted his head.

"Forty million is what the bidding stopped at when the raid started." Sarcasm dripping as he gave an equally sarcastic smile. "They started early, and I understand why... This one woulda went ta hundreds of millions of Grimm if the biddin' wasn't cut short. Gettin' that one off your block as soon as possible makes sense, hiding it was almost impossible for them. An considering we never got to the paying part, this human is basically free."

"No human is worth hundreds of millions of Grimm." The butlers eyes narrowed. "You'll recieve payment for product once the Prince verifies the package, until then, you will get your money for the work." Barbatos informed as he counted the money Mammon had been sent with to verify it was all still present as he claimed.

"Also, I'm thinking this one is visually impaired..." Mammon sighed. "I didn't do it." He held his hands up in front of him.

"So hundreds of millions for a defective human?" Barbatos walked around the bag, holding the briefcase as he did. Mammon had not lied. All of the Grimm was there. "It would be a shame if you were lying to get more Grimm..."

"Oh, hell no, fuck right off with that shit." The Avatar pointed to the butler. "I did my end, ain't no way your stiffing me outta what's mine."

"Lucifers." He corrected.

"An it'll get me off the hook for the last hundred things he's pissed about and the next hundred. I want the ring and my money." Mammon crossed his arms.

"Anything else you wish to demand for this defective product you've brought my master?"

"Some new tires, but I ain't pushin' it." He smirked as he sassed the butler. "Where the fuck is he anyway. Dude was like a kid in a candy store an hour ago, ya think he'd be here to unbox his human."

"You mean, unzip?" The butler gave his own sarcastic smile.

"Well excuse me they didn't have time to box em' up. I did what I had ta do."

"Your best was a duffle bag?"

"I coulda not brought the human at all and bounced with the cash. Yer bein' awful rude to the demon that pulled through where others woulda fucked ya."

Barbatos held his tounge. The second born was correct...most would have just left and moved on, taking the cash with them and claiming it as payment for wasted time because of the raid...

"Don't judge until you remove the bracelet. It's what's concealing the surprise. Also, they were talkin' about caring for the stupid human. Apparently it ain't ate in two days and was last watered about ten hours ago. So it's gonna need a meal."

"Anything else?"

"Ya, this human an one other survived the fucking shitstorm called a raid. The guy in this first photo got ripped apart by two demons fightin' over it. So apparently they are pretty fucking fragile." Mammon showed the butler the picture. "The other two didn't have a great end either."

"Any idea on who got the other one?"

"A hunch, but that's gonna cost ya extra."

"Did anyone see you leave with the human?"

"Probably not, but who knows. Anyone comes poking around I know how to keep my mouth shut."

"One bonus, I suppose." The butler sighed as he checked his phone. "My Master will be here shortly."

"'Bout damn time."

A few minutes passed in silence until the Prince arrived, a puzzled look on his face upon seeing a duffle bag.

"Seems there was a raid, young master. Mammon had to improvise."

"Thanks for selling me short, dick." Mammon scoffed as he turned his attention to the Prince now. "Ya, it was raided. I fought off other bidders and even got the ownership papers during the commotion. The bidding was up to Forty million for this one, and that's cheap as fuck. Although, we never did pay, on account of the raiding, so I literally got ya a hundreds of millions Grimm worth human for free."

"It's defective." Barbatos deadpanned.

"It ain't defective, for fuck sake dude. Just open the damn thing and take the bracelet off. I'll give ya the paper of ownership once I get my payment and a bonus for all my trauma." He smirked.

"How is the human defective?" Usually the defective ones never made it to auction...

"Apparently it can not see."

"It can see, it just needs glasses!" Mammon growled.

Kneeling down Diavolo steadily undid the zipper and pushed the bag away.

He's fairly certain his heart skipped a beat.

You're bruised up, but nothing that won't heal in short order itself. Your everything he ever imagined in a human. Your hair almost the perfect shade, skin soft and supple. Even your lips are shaped exactly how he wanted in a human... it's uncanny. Like you were made for him or fate truly existed.

"I mean, they ain't much ta look at, but ya gotta take the bracelet off. That's the millions of Grimm part." He laughed. The Prince was a sucker for humans. As long as ya weren't dead, this was gonna be an easy payday, all things considered.

Laying your body flat from the fetal position you had been in the bag, Diavolo had to catch his breath. He wasn't sure how this got any better...but Mammon didn't hype things up when it came to how much they were worth, even when trying to make a quick buck...

undoing the heavy claspy holding the bracelet in place he was dumbfounded.

Your soul was pure. Bright. A beacon in such a place as the Devildom...

"Suck my fucking dick, Barbatos!" Mammon laughed heartily. "So, about my bonus, I was-"

"Take it."

"Young master! You can not be seri-"

"Give Mammon the briefcase." He reached into his pocket and fished out the ring. Mammon had been correct when he had said you were worth so much. He hadn't sent Mammon with enough to purchase you if things had played out to plan. Humans never went for more than fifteen million just because of the fragility...

"See, this makes a man feel appreciated." He smiled as Barbatos handed him the briefcase and the ring, scowl upon his face.

"Papers." Barbatos demanded.

"Just sign the bottom an it's all yours free an legal. They got the certificate dated before the sanctions hit. So it's a legal human." He handed it to the butler.

Barbatos's emerald eyes scanned the document front and back. Either the forger had outdone themselves, or someone inside of the government was selling certificates with false dates under the table. Useful information for later, but truly of no use now. "It is perfect, young master."

"Anyway, I'm off. Lucifer asks where I was or why I was here, I was helping Barb with some chores to pay off a favor."

"Noted." The butler sighed. "Now begone, before I tell Lucifer the truth."

"Ouch, you're so rough, Barbie." Mammon snickered as he moved to the exit. "Maybe I outta tell Solomon to make ya nicer to me."

"It will most likely be decades before you get your wish." Barbatos gave a false polite smile.

"Give me another couple hundred thousand Grimm and I'll tell ya a secret." His smile never leaving as he slowly walked backwards to the exit. "Unless ya don't think yer pact holder is worth it..." He shrugged.

Information for sale. It could be informative...or completely useless. Either way, Mammon wouldn't open his mouth about such a matter to just anyone, even with Grimm on the table. "Fifty thousand." He counter offered.

Mammon hissed. "Fifty G's... all that'll get ya is that you an my brother might see him in the next few years...an that's if he can get away from whose gottem'." He grimaced for effect. "Dudes pretty smart, but man..." He shook his head.

"One hundred thousand Grimm, I'll go no higher..." Barbatos studied the Avatar closely.

Mammon knew not to push his luck. "Ya can add it to my account." He smirked. "Seems the only other survivor was Solomon himself. He made it okay from the building, but past that he coulda been grabbed. I'd check with Astoroth... he does tend to just cut his humans up an eat 'em. He don't care what they got ta offer." He gave another shrug as he left.

"I've things handled here if you wish to seek Solomon out." Diavolo's eyes never left your form. I've the proper legal documentation, and they are already on palace grounds. So we've no trouble now."

"Very well. Thank you, young master."

Barbatos had left to see to his business while Diavolo carried you to the bed.

CTS B manifesto

During week 11, session 1, we mainly talked about Manifesto in the field of design and also our personal lives. And here is our group work manifesto.

As a young individual, collaboration and communication are always vital because they allow me to create innovative and effective solutions within a team. Other people’s ideas help me to consider different perspectives and to reflect on myself when receiving feedback. Thus, they can lead to my personal development.

I have also developed a personal design manifesto that allows me to show my vision for the future of design and society. And I believe they are essential for successful and responsible design.

First, I should always consider social impact while designing. Shepard Fairey, one of my favourite designers and street artists, inspired me a lot on this. Among his works, auspicious symbols and icons, like lotus flowers (one of the Buddhist symbols) and the peace dove, are recurrent themes. His works always show a pursuit of racial harmony, unity, justice, and triumph over adversity. And this is what I should do when designing to promote civilization and harmony in society.

Another point of my manifesto that Shepard inspired me with is to have clear visual communication. The first thing that he intentionally developed to be an icon was the well-known Obey Icon Face.

“And the amazing thing is that with the simplification and the familiarity through repetition that image has, now a viewer can see just a portion of the image and recognize what it is.” Said Shepard.

And this is the way to make a design iconic, simple, and memorable. In my studio project, creating a visual identity system design for Baybeats Festival, me and my partner Luther tried to keep our key visuals really minimal but powerful. We used a hand-painted texture to have a more organic and authentic look. The imperfection and high contrast of black strokes and a paper-textured background create more memorable visual elements compared to the often detailed and precise calculation of vector graphics when making illustration-style designs.

I must also respect all kinds of cultures and traditions while avoiding discrimination or misrepresentation. I have created one of my favourite works with Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblock print culture before, and I did a lot of research on their traditional masks “Hannya”, “higanbana” flowers, and “Inka” shadow fire, to keep the cultural symbols and elements I use accurate and logical, which, in my opinion, is a great way to respect one’s culture.

CTS B lessons have been of great help to me, as they allow me to consider more about our society, culture, and how I see myself as a young designer. It provides me with important manifestos and teaches me to respect, to collaborate, and to create responsibly and successfully.

Eh, nobody tagged me in this game, but I saw @danieyells did it and thought it was thoroughly cute so I’ll do a little more sharing for a change (take a few steps out of my comfort zone of relative anonymity, you know?)

1. Who is your favorite brother? Depends on the day. Good days: Beel. Bad days: Levi. All days: Mammon. (Yes that still somehow doesn’t make him sole favorite)

2. Who are your top 3 favorite brothers? Mammon, Beel, Levi. Easy-peasy.

3. Who is your favorite undateable? Barbatos actually. Since we know practically jackshit about him I’ve made an idealized version of him in my head and let me tell ya, he’s great!

4. What is your most powerful card? Idol Beel (First Beel card the game ever gave me. Took two months and I’ve been milking it ever since...)

5. What is your favorite card? Uhhh... Based solely on art, I’d say it’s a three-way between Belphie’s Our Summer Festival (my icon art) for its eye-catching colors, Levi’s The Battle Between Demons because its utterly adorkable, and Satan’s de-flowered I’ll Protect You because he looks like he’s ready to steamroll a small nation.

6. Who is your favorite artist who draws obey me fanart? Is YES a valid answer? I’m an art whore... I tend to really like what @Pon.ee does, their style is wonderfully slick, energetic, and fun!

7. Who is your favorite writer in the fandom? @obae-me (@marajordyn) still holds a well-deserved death grip on my top spot. I honestly can only read so much of her work in one sitting because it legit inspires me so much I’ll be bouncing off the walls with creativity for hours (and annoy all my loved ones in the process). I couldn’t recommend her work more. READ IT.

8. What was your favorite event? Lamp/1001 Devildom Nights. It’s almost purely a matter of personal preference. I adore things inspired by or based off of the Arabian Nights... (Magi is my semi-guilty pleasure anime for that very reason)

9. Are you struggling with new lessons? The Main Story? No. The Hard mode? Hella yeah. I’ve just given up making progress there for a while so I can conserve resources.

10. What is your favorite obey me! theory? The one I came up with a while ago that concludes that either Levi’s skin or his demon clothes must indestructible. Or that Diavolo is an unwitting puppet ruler and Barbs has been secretly running things the whole time. Either of those.

11. What your favorite devilgram story you’ve unlocked?

(1) The Queen of Jealousy for Beel is a favorite (I didn’t even think there was a jealous Beel before then)

(2) Belphie’s Shelter from the Rain (Belphie being cute is my eternal kryptonite)

(3) Levi’s Under the Sea (Fun fact: I get anxious in deep water, the ocean especially, but my mind has long since accepted that Levi=Safety as far water is concerned. Game, you cannot convince me otherwise.)

(4) Presents for Lucifer/Quality Time for For Two (I’ve mentioned before that Lucifer and I have the same birthday, so the stuff around his birthday event kind of hits me different, you know?)

And honorable mention Romance Royale if only for the bait and switch ending (is it weird that I’d be totally into having a prince/maid dynamic with Levi, Satan, and Belph? Probably not, but it surprised me.)

12. Which brother do you have the most SSR and URs cards of? Apparently I have 14 Mammons... Lucifer makes a close second (though I don’t really use him) and Beel is in third. If there were a trade system I’d be auctioning my Lucifer’s for more Levi’s (which would probably piss him off).

13. What level are you currently? 183

14. Have you been able to deflower any cards yet? Yes, yes I have.

15. What is your total strength? 5250924

16. What is the total strength of the person at the top of your friend list? 7207926

17. Out of your friend list, what are you ranked at for total strength? Example: 12 out of 24. 9/99

18. Which brother do you currently have on your home screen? Yukata Levi (it pairs well with his background)

19. What is your icon on your student I.D? Levi’s Pieces of the Puzzle

20. What does your about me on your student I.D say? Ride or Die, Mammie

Since this is a tag game, and I’m genuinely curious about y’all (I got practically no one to talk to about this game back home so throw me some scraps...!!), I’ll go ahead and tag @ghostcomit, @buntycake, @yuki-kaminari, @marajordyn, @life-is-a-soup-and-im-a-fork, and @minami--chan. If anyone else wants to chime in, go right on ahead! (I did and like hell am I going to be a hypocrite)
