Hi, it's me again but this time I'm back with a question that's been floating around my mind for some time now and I'd like to hear your take on it: where exactly is the devildom?

For context: what raised this question was me remembering that belphie said somewhere (I forgot when he said it) that the stars in the devildom are different from the ones in the human realm; at the time I just glossed over it but then I was like "wait a second" bc what exactly are we looking at when we look at the stars? We're basically staring at the rest of our universe and all these little explosions, the light of which we perceive as stars (very scientific and definitely not wrong™ explanation)

Anyway the point is: if the stars in the devildom are different from ours, what exactly are we looking at here? I just assumed the devildom and celestial realm are on planet earth but like magically concealed or something but maybe that's not it? Are we in a different galaxy/universe? Can we just see a different 'angle/ layer'? I mean magic exists, who knows what's possible or not

Or I misinterpreted belphie's statement and he just meant that the constellations are different or whatever (but I'm pretty sure he said 'stars' as if in the actual gas balls are different ones; maybe someone else can provide context/screenshots <3)

It's always me with the dumb questions but now that I sign off my posts you can see just how obsessed I am with the world building and cultural exchange part of this one game👀✨

I am confusion, America explain

-⛈️

Oooooh oh oho oh hohoh ohoh oh. Yes. Please know that receiving this question gave me so much glee. I'm basically going to just. say a bunch of stuff. Feel free to take or leave what you like - I don't even know what version I want to go with personally.

So. What/where is the Devildom?

Well there's the 'easy' answer in that the Devildom is an analogue for "Hell"/"the Underworld"/"Hades". It's occupied mostly by demons and monsters, and we know there are multiple (8, according to Satan) "Layers" to it. What each of these layers are, however, are up in the air. After all, does this version of the Devildom also equate to the human afterlife? If so, are these "layers of punishment" re: dante's inferno/christian fanfiction or are they something else? There are ghosts and zombies around the place, which imply the presence of human spirits/souls, but not much else. We know demons eat human souls normally - maybe it is an afterlife, except the humans are more like livestock? But that still doesn't answer the question of where the devildom is.

What are the facts?

Well. We know the stars are different, as you so kindly pointed out. And that the Celestial Realm, the Devildom, and the Human World are considered separate enough that you can't just wander to and from each - they require magic to travel between them. Thaaaaat's about it (well. maybe there's more. But I'm only in S2 so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) Basically I'm just gonna use the stars to help throw around some theories.

Why are the stars different?

Three answers for this one, and honestly I don't know which one is my favourite, so I'll just throw all three at the wall and see what sticks.

The Devildom is in a different position in space. This kind of implies that the Devildom is almost a planet of its own, able to be mapped and traversed just like planet Earth. Instead of using space ships to get to and from the "Human World"/"the Celestial Realm", they use magic. Which. Implies the demons are actually aliens. Which I love. Definitely a spin on "Cosmic" horror.

The Devildom has it's own, unique "Space". Something that I've always wondered in terms of stories that involve multiple planes is how the cosmology for each plane works. Is it the one galaxy with different versions of a "prime planet" or are there unique galaxies for each plane of existence? (Are there aliens unique to the feywild???? Are there celestial aliens?????????)

The Devildom is in a different position in time. We're seeing the stars that could be seen/will be seen from the human world/Earth, but by a difference of millennia. Or - a "frozen" position in time. It never seems to be day in the Devildom, and yet the sun must exist because the moon is visible. """magic moon""" is a cop-out answer and people need to accept more sci-fi in their fantasies dammit. It could potentially be moving through time differently - forwards, backwards, lengthened, shortened. Time moving differently between the realms is always a nice and easy set-up for some lifespan angst -

I mean. we could say that the stars are just specks of light in the sky too, but. That's boring. Unless they're the holes poked in the jar that is the devildom. I guess if you wanted to go "high fantasy" with it an argument could be made for stars being points of power/magic or some kind of fragmentation of celestial light/souls/etc... But if that was the case, my argument would be "why not have that as the original giant gas balls in space. magic is just science that isn't understood!!"

As I mentioned at the start, I honestly don't know which version I ascribe to personally. It probably changes depending on my mood. I wish I had a definitive answer!

Okay I’d like to talk about the treatment of the side characters and how empty the world feels so this is not proof read or anything this is a rant

Firstly

The world

We know that other students are there i understand that making a game takes time but for crying out loud the whole world of devildom feels so empty and yes we have the Little D’s but they are mainly in the castle with barbatos so they are practically diavolo servants like barbatos and even the recent event we are helping barbatos with serving nobles

NOBLES

Which is just baffling to me because games like arcana twilight that came out after obey me and are clearly inspired by obey me at least feels alive do we see full body sprites no of course not but we this

We can see what the characters look like to get a better understanding of how they look yet in obey me nothing really now I know if I remember CORRECTLY Nightbringer will be a continuation of the original game but it’s honestly stupid how a game like a obey me that been out longer than arcana twilight feels so empty

I’m asking for but if you want to write a good story and make me fee apart of it then take a moment to let us explore how the world works on OUR own.

Secondly

The side characters

Don’t get me wrong I love the brothers but I also love the side characters just as much but it’s ridiculous on how little screen time they have now is crazy not to mention the treatment of the new characters

First diavolo HES THE FUTURE KING OF HELL FOR CRYING OUT LOUD I believe he should get enough screen time but no the devs go against it

And before anyone say “well originally the side characters weren’t dateable” I only started playing after they were dateable but are doing some research the “side characters” have been dateable for a good while to the point they technically be considered they are perusing the mc minus Luke

So why are they still getting shit on by the devs? Probably because when most people think of the game they think of the brothers but honestly which character peaked your interest before playing the game because for me it was diavolo

And don’t get me started on the new characters this is more of a pet peeve with the fandom but why do you guys mischaracterize Mephistopheles and Raphael? Raphael has a similar if not same personality as belphie yet a lot of people say belphie is being cute while Raphael is being rude and Mephistopheles I’m sorry Lucifer fans but think of it from Mephistopheles perspective I’d be piss to if I was born to practically be someone right hand man only to get cased aside for something new?

A lot of you guys had mischaracterize thirteen when she came out but the devs oh god we barely seen thirteen and Mephistopheles in Nightbringer now Raphael I can kinda understand but the two that are in devildom with us don’t show up? That’s a joke like seriously

At this point why did they add them if they don’t appear as much hell I dare say obey me could have been a yandere otome game where the brothers became yandere after making a pact with the mc and the side characters like Solomon and Mephistopheles noticed this and try and help us but Solomon can’t tell Simeon and Luke because another war might break out again

But that’s all I have to say I brought up the world building or lack of in the official obey me server and people seem to say “but it be more pressure on the devs” I get that but this game gets a lot of money and I’m pretty sure it’s more pressure if they can’t keep the story straight because after lesson 40 I’m pretty sure we all have questions

And please PLEASE LET US SEE THE SIDE CHARACTERS MORE IN THE ANIME PLEASE

Rant off

Virtue and Sin

Simeon

"What happened earlier?"

Given the situation that happened in the kitchen earlier, I thought it best for MC and me to share a room in the sleeping car so that I could have a proper conversation with them about it. I know that means having Luke continue to be exposed to Mammon and risk having another episode, but I don't know if I'll have another opportunity to be alone with MC, and there are some things they need to know.

"What you witnessed was greed's energy bouncing off Mammon and Luke," I answer. "The more they wanted to go on that trip, the stronger that energy became."

"And the more dangerous."

"Exactly."

"But why would Luke experience greed?" There's the million dollar question. Thankfully, MC seems smart enough to understand the answer.

"An angel's power is connected to one of the seven virtues. Obviously, we're supposed to practice all of them, but the strength of the individual connections differs from person to person. Less experienced angels tend to think that virtue and sin are complete opposites, but in reality they're merely two sides of the same coin."

"Kind of like yin and yang. Good and bad are intertwined; you can't have one without the other. And since Luke's very charitable and kind, he's more likely to experience greed and envy than some of the other angels."

"Correct." MC's following along quite nicely.

"Does the electricity happen to everyone that experiences a sin around a demon?" I shake my head.

"It's a phenomenon that only occurs between angels and demons. The effects are more internal for humans. Any signs of that electricity will be in the eyes, and even then it's so subtle that those that don't know what to look for will dismiss it as a mere trick of the light."

"I see." MC pauses to stretch their arms. "What would have happened to Luke if you didn't step in?" I sigh.

"An angel's tolerance for sin is like a rubber band; it can stretch pretty far, but eventually it will snap. Luke was moments away from throwing a temper tantrum, and those tend to be more violent than a human's."

"That makes sense. I mean, you might say that the flood that Noah experienced was the result of God throwing a hissy fit."

"How so?" I'm genuinely interested in MC's response, but I'm also testing them a bit with my question.

"Well, if something I poured my heart into creating didn't work the way I intended it to, I'd be pretty upset. Not just at the creation, but at myself. The possibility that I wasn't as good as I thought I was would hurt my pride, and I'd end up lashing out at my creation, potentially destroying it in the process."

Bingo.

"That certainly is an interesting take, MC." As much as I'd like to tell them that their reasoning is sound and that it partially explains how Lucifer turned out the way he did, I have a feeling that I'd get my ass chewed out for agreeing with the idea that God is capable of sinning. That kinda defeats the whole "He's perfect" thing.

"Do you think Luke's going to be okay bunking with Mammon?" I shrug.

"He has to learn how to control his greed and envy, and he can't do that if he doesn't know what he's up against. 'Know thy enemy', as they say." I sigh. "I hate to think of the brothers that way, especially since we were once family, but they are the Avatars of Sin for a reason. It'd be foolish of me to not take that into account."

MC appears deep in thought. I can tell that they have more to say, but for some reason they're hesitating. Are they afraid that I'll end our conversation if they keep talking?

Michael and the other seraphim would tell me that I should. A human has no business knowing this much. I know a few angels that still hold humanity in contempt for what Adam and Eve did in the Garden of Eden, and that's ancient history at this point.

However, I want to know exactly what MC's thinking. I find their intellect to be one of the most attractive things about them. Not that they're bad to look at--because they're not--but there are plenty of pretty people that don't have any complex thoughts in their head. It makes for rather boring conversations. At least I don't have to worry about that with MC.

"Hey, Simeon?" I hum in acknowledgement. "You don't have to answer this if you don't want to, but I was wondering what sin you're most susceptible to experiencing."

Oh. We're going there.

If it were anyone else, I would change the subject. Knowing an angel's weaknesses is powerful, and people have used that against us too many times for me to count.

But I don't think MC would do that. They've behaved too honorably.

I take a deep breath to ease my nerves.

"Wrath."

#obey me shall we date #obey me mc #obey me simeon #obey me luke #today's world building has been brought to you by glow sticks #(if you know you know)

Events will published in order of parution as well, but in a separated section from the main story.

Analysis will pop up now and then according to my mood or questions on a specific subject concerning my MC.

Chronology is a following in real time of now adventures

Timeline is my own interpretation of the OM past important world developments through the ages until the beginning of the exchange program.

you know how wild orcas dont typically attack humans unless theyre mistaken for something on the orcas food chain, like a seal or something?

I think random devildom animals would react to humans. Like some giant poison hellfire beast just looks at mc and instead of turning them into paste on sight like it would with a demon its just like ?? Ok. And is neutral if not passive because !! Apex predator buddies !!

Especially since humans have had a history of befriending and taming animals (wolves, cats, etc) by sharing food.

Pictures of mc 2 ft away from one of the devildoms notoriously vicious unicorns while offering it a donut or something

The Reproductive Systems and Habits of Angels and Demons

Some world building information, primarily for my Culture Shock! Obey Me AU that I'm working on. Feel free to do what you will with any of my ideas. If you make any works based off something I post, or inspired by it, I'd love to see it!

Not exactly safe for work.

Warning for noncon, specifically in the angel's section. Less serious warning that it's probably glaringly obvious I used to be in the Homestuck fandom lol

Both angels and demons are true hermaphrodites. Gender expression is based purely on preference, and heavily influenced by humanity, though in both native tongues, pronouns more denounce species than gender. Angels have one for each rank of angel and one for non-angels, while demons have one each for demons, angels, and humans, and then another for other beings, though there are also more specific ones for them that just may not be known by your average speaker and require explanation.

The reproductive systems of demons and angels are remarkably similar in form. Unaroused, the pubic area looks somewhat like a vagina, though some of the shapes are odd, the labia minora are missing, and the colours are often less-than expected if you thought your partner was human somehow, though more natural to human colors are also perfectly within possibility. The clitoris is also odd, particularly in the fact that it isn’t one. The penis remains internal when not in use, though the tip is always visible. Both arousal and the need to urinate will cause the penis to start to exit the vent, though to different degrees. The urethra is located on the tip of the penis, and both sperm and urine exit through it. The penis is tapered, and is often multicolored, though those are the only traits common enough to bother listing here, as there’s a great deal of variation in shape between individuals, with demons often showing more extreme variants than angels.

The vaginal opening is located in roughly the same location as it is on humans, and the testicles are internal in both angels and demons. The internal walls of the vagina can have some interesting textures, though this is by far more noticeable in lust demons. Ovulation in both species is rare, and triggered by different things depending. Placenta begins to form only after a fertilized egg is implanted, so periods aren’t a thing that ever happen to either, though birth is often even less pleasant to deal with than it is with humans, since the hip shape is the same, yet the babies can be much bigger and have god-knows-what sort of appendages sticking off of them. Since forms further from humans are most often larger, it’s common practice for an expecting demon or angel to shift up when labor starts to ease the process. This can, for some, also change the shape of the hips, which can either make things easier, or just impossible, so it’s always on a case by case basis if this is advisable or not.

Arousal will always instigate the penis to exit the body, though there are some notable differences based on whether the being wishes to submit or dominate. If experiencing submissive arousal, the penis remains fairly soft and is mobile, though control over the movements of it is generally extremely limited (Asmodeus could probably hold a pen and write though.) More blood goes to the labia majora, causing a swelling, as well as some internal structures that enhance the pleasure of being penetrated.

If experiencing dominant arousal, the penis loses its mobility, becomes hard and rigid in preparation to penetrate. Blood actually redirects from the vagina, the labia closing up a bit. It's wildly unpleasant to be penetrated in this state, though some masochists enjoy it.

Both states feel notably different, both physically and emotionally. Switching between states without a pause in between is something that some demons enjoy immensely. Mammon in particular loves starting out dominant and having his partner get him to switch before he gets to do anything.

While nearly unheard of for angels, who almost always produce a single, live infant, there are rare subsets of demons that produce either litters or eggs, and even rarer, some who can end up with two or all three options in different circumstances, though not at the same time.

Angels

Angels are capable of arousal and copulation at any time, and can reproduce with angels, humans, and demons. However, this is forbidden outside of a singular circumstance. Overcoming lust is expected, and giving into it is WILDLY taboo and will be met with visceral disgust if not outright ostrisization from most every other angel. Denying yourself lustful pleasures is considered a show of your devotion, not only to god, but to other angels, and a thing that you should do for the good of everyone.

The singular instance in which angels are allowed to sexually reproduce are in the case of a ‘Blessed Coupling.’ This has always been between two angels, and tends to come out of fucking nowhere, but it’s very literally god wanting two angels to bone down and make a baby for whatever reason. It happens very rarely, and without the will of the angel being taken into account. Very suddenly, two angels will enter each other's proximity, shift up a form or two, and become unbearably aroused. Reports from couples who had this happen don’t exactly paint a pleasant picture, as they very suddenly feel like thoughtless animals and cannot resist going at it. They often both leave the situation feeling violated. Blessed Couples are both venerated and used as a cautionary tale against giving into lust. It’s a common belief that should you give into lust, you can become like that permanently, though that’s entirely untrue and born mostly out of fear. It’s worth noting that this happens to angels who have never even met sometimes, so the interest between the pair is irrelevant.

While most of the punishment for things like masturbation would be social, carried out by other angels if found out, IF an angel impregnates someone or gets impregnated outside of a Blessed Coupling, they fall and their offspring is killed. If an angel wants to have a child, they frankly should fall first.

For the most part, angels are created directly by god, and while Blessed Couplings are considered a very good thing, as it's a direct result of gods will, no one really knows why it happens. The offspring are always special in some way, so it's assumed that god wants that specific angel to exist, but that's just kind of the most accepted guess.

Demons

Demons are more likely to suffer from NOT having sex, or at least masturbating, than they ever will be from abstaining. While most often seen in the form of gluttony and wrath rampages, all of the sins can produce a sort of ‘shut down’ state if the temptation to give into them is ignored for long enough, or the desire is strong enough. Lust will end up with a sort of heat or rut, depending on the nature of the desire being ignored. That said, if there is no desire, there’s no danger of the shut down state. So, if a demon is asexual, they're just plain not in danger of that.

Dominance and submission are both culturally and biologically a thing with demons. Culturally, being dominant is seen as the ideal, while being submissive is shameful, since it’s a culture in which being strong is heavily emphasized. Biologically, every demon wants both sometimes, though some demons have definite preferences for one or the other.

Being openly brazen with enjoying to submit is viewed as extraordinarily slutty. More conservative demons look down on it, but it’s pretty universally considered very hot. Asmo’s fixation on keeping himself small and cute and flirty is largely because, even if he’s modestly dressed and using none of his powers, demons around him tend to react with arousal, which he likes a lot. He's cultivated the image of the perfect submissive.

Pacts with human sorcerers have a lot of strangeness about them. A pact taken by force is most likely to just produce resentment in the demon half of it, but a pact willingly given is kind of the ultimate act of submission, literally subjecting your free will to another. Often, such things are only offered to exceedingly powerful sorcerers, because the demon gains a lot of power out of it as well in that case and it’s worth the occasional loss of free will to them. However, if attraction develops on the demons end, they find that their body only really wants to act submissively in sexual situations with that person. Given how little any of this ever took place in the Devildom prior to the exchange program and MC earning their pacts, this wasn’t a documented thing, because no demon in their right mind would eagerly admit that they let their pactmate plow them (save for Asmodeus, but that’s not weird for him, and no one would really question it being at all related to the pact.) Whether there’s a magical influence on their preference, or it’s simply a latent desire all demons have not allowing itself to be ignored after literally turning over your free will to someone, who knows.

Heats are more common with demons, due to the sort of shame associated with submitting. It’s less to do with breeding, and much more to do with sating a desire that’s been repressed. They can often be kept at bay with the use of toys and indulgent fantasies, but it’s still more common that a demon will be too proud to ‘sink to that level.’ It’s genuinely a bit weird for a demon to, on their own, go into rut. There’s no taboo against going at someone, or even taking turns, and even if that’s not an option, masturbation will usually keep it from happening. If a demon’s doing a LOT of pining, it can happen, but such obsessive focus on one person to trigger something like that is very rare, and usually will clue people into something being wrong well before this is an issue. Most commonly, a rut is triggered while actively having sex. There is a certain limit to how long you can edge a demon without them flipping the fuck out and literally losing their mind for a while. This is DEFINITELY a fetish for some demons, both having it happen to them and being the one to trigger it in others. Levi’s into the idea of having it done to him. Lucifer loves doing it to others.

While lesser demons that die easier reproduce pretty frequently, the only higher demons that commonly reproduce is the royal family, due to how often kings are rebelled against and deliberately killed. For the most part, a high demon has to actively choose to have a child, and most will just probably not. They live for many millions of years, if not killed, and killing them is an ORDEAL, so the idea of passing down what they have isn’t honestly an issue most think about often, if ever.

A high demon that has chosen to be impregnated will behave very differently from normal, though if they’re acting as the father, nothing actually changes at all. Brooding behaviors can vary pretty heavily from demon to demon, but they all start craving meat (among other things) in large quantities and do some sort of nesting behavior, though it’s heavily influenced by what the individual believes to be important. Beel would probably try to hoard food, but with an exacerbated appetite, might become distressed with how difficult that is. Leviathan would likely end up in some sort of blanket fort made of manga and whatever he thought was comfy, but he’d also probably like it to be underwater. A pregnant high demon expects their partner to be at their beck and call and take care of them. They do not expect to have to leave their nest more than absolutely necessary. Gestation periods vary, but both of the pair are expected to basically be unreachable until the birth.

Most of the time, high demons having children is kind of the ultimate declaration of devotion to each other, both because of the expected behavior while the baby is forming, as well as what the baby themselves represent. It’s borderline sacred. Baby trapping does happen, but it’s socially considered so revolting that oftentimes if it’s found out the friends of the victim will straight up kill the demon that did it to them, and sometimes the child depending. It involves a LOT more manipulation than it would for humans who can conceive accidentally.

Noble families who produce heirs will sometimes choose to do so with the sole purpose of showing off their wealth. This is most common with greed demon couples. They made a grand show of the time, often hiring extensive staff and going wildly hedonistic while the baby or babies are gestating. It's also common when a family is expanding to increase their own power and not because they're showing that devotion. Often, the lavish gestation and entry into the noble family is the compensation for the demon that becomes pregnant.

Also worth noting: most cambion (human/demon hybrids) happen entirely by accident. While a high demon has to choose to initiate the ability to be pregnant, they can technically always get someone else pregnant. Should a demon go have some fun with humans and raw dog one, it may just genuinely not occur to them that, if that human has the right equipment, they might get pregnant about it. It’s not uncommon knowledge that humans just kinda get pregnant all willy-nilly, but for the most part, you’d have to look it up. It would be less of an issue were a human to couple with a lesser demon with a more relatable reproductive cycle, but their smaller, less-human forms and rare reasons to ever interact with humans make such couples non-existent. While there are humans that would see a knee-high bipedal pig made of shadow and think “I need to fuck that,” the chances of the two ever meeting are improbably slim.

While fetishes in the Devildom are plentiful and often strange, because of how such things work, high demons pretty universally consider breeding kinks cute and wholesome. Demons with that inclinations will sometimes stage role play sessions where making a nest together, or at least doing it in one that one of them made beforehand, is expected, as is lots of cuddling and pampering. This could lead to some interesting misunderstandings if a demon wasn’t particularly specific with the details of a request for such things when inviting MC. A demon asking someone to 'pretend to breed them' is hoping to be lavished with love and affection, so if you show up with nothing but a lot of dirty talk planned, there will be a great deal of confusion on both ends.

(Keep in mind on only on lesson 19[og] and just started lesson 7[nb])

Hi it’s me again-

So I was thinking about the whole “Does the Devildom only have one school” thing again. This ended up with me having another question.

How big is the Devildom?

Is that stated anywhere in the game? Cause depending on how big the Devildom is, I feel like it would make sense for there to be multiple schools. Y’know??

#trying ti find logic in a game about demons angels and magic #Im overthinking probably #compiling this shit in a google doc just so I can have some sense of world building #obey me shall we date #obey me #obey me one master to rule them all #obey me nightbringer #obey me devildom #obey me questions

Just played Lesson 13. Still don't like Lilith's presence much but DAMN we got World Building and Diavolo characterization- That's pretty good. ( Won't elaborate for spoiler reasons but yeah liked it enough I suppose. )

Kinda been waiting to get some stuff on Diavolo and Barbatos so eager to see what comes next.

#obey me #obey me musings #obey me nightbringer #obey me lilith #obey me Diavolo #Lilith's presence in general annoys me even if its brief.#idgaf about you. You were turned Human why dont you focus on that instead of weeping and hyperfocusing on the life you left behind #sorry thats rude... I just dont like Lilith.#But yeah we get world building AND Diavolo characterization?? YES MA'AM #And like tbh i'm kind of grateful for it because I dont really like Diavolo but i find him interesting.#I know we got Diavolo stans here ready to rip my face off over it but like... Yeah at least we can agree hes an interesting peep #Kinda wondering what theyll do for him because i find Nightbringer Diavolo way more understanding and interesting than Original Diavolo #So Lilith is -1 and Diavolo/Worldbuilding is +2 = 1 out of .5 which means pretty good lol #Also not gonna spoil but- Keep that Same Energy Lilith when you beg me for help after your brothers have been trainwrecks. Keep that energy

Guys wait

Finger guns is a legitimate "attack" in Devildom, all be it minor. It has fairly far range (about 10 meters) and is mainly used by children in games of tag or "zap"

As finger guns cause a small zap of electricity to shoot out of ones fingers. It does take practice to get it to shoot more than a couple centimeters though. More experienced or older children tend to clasp their hands together to widen their "barrel" and send a bigger shock/a charged attack as they are capable of forming more energy between their hands before sending it off.

Only with the resurgence in the human world popularity have people begun trying to make the spell one that can target and follow people

This is why finger guns are banned at RAD, as the sparks travelling are a distraction, dangerous and not fully tested. The science lab and gym class are the only two places, under supervision that they can be used with magic, however they can be used as an informal greeting as well.

Devildom World/Society building hc's p.t 1

-the Devildom had vending machines on every road but inside are souls or body parts

-every restaurant has plates that are bigger then you face.

-all the desks in RAD are double what they would be here

-what demons or Devildom inhabitants consider a single-size bed would be a queen size for us.

-going out and buying a drink from a convenience store but its a litre

-succubi coming up to you on the streets and its nothing out of the ordinary

-what humans consider as weird pets are normal in the Devildom

-going into the auditorium or any theatre and the sits are twice your size.

-the currency is only 1 grimm so you need to count out 500 coins since there isn't a simplified currency yet.

-having to repeat your partners name in class because it's 4 syllables and each letter is pronounced differently

-saying "omg" or "Jesus Christ" and every head within the room turns and stares at you

-every staircase is thin and steep causing you to trip up 8 out of 10 times.

-struggling to find clothes except children's so you need each clothing piece tailored.

-buying paints and the name are either disturbing or just questionable

Let's World Build: Obey Me RAD Headcanons

These are just a few random headcanons about how I think RAD works, and how everyone fits into the school. (Don't mind the grammar and spelling mistakes💙)

The reason that all the characters are still in school, even though they're each several thousand years old, is because school years last longer for demons than humans. Humans on the low end will be in school for 12-ish yrs, and if you go onto higher education it could be another 4-6 yrs or longer. Since demons live longer it makes sense that school would take up more of their life.

Why is Luke going to RAD, if RAD is a college (at least to older players it is)? For the same reason high schoolers are seen in college classes. He's one of those young high schoolers that get to take low-level college classes for credits. (If I wrote a human college AU, Luke would be a 14-year-old who gets adopted by Simon and Solomon after they took one look at him, and went 'damn this kid is going to get eaten alive at this place'.)

All the boys are in different grades. And goes as followed: (from the lowest grade to the highest)

i) Beel, Belphie, and Mammon are in the lowest grade together. Mammon is with them because he doesn't try in class and has had to repeat a grade or two. Though I am 100% team Mammon is a genius, but also so fucking stupid. Also, he's in advanced math.

ii) Simone and Luke are in the same grade level as Mammon, Beel, and Belphie, but don't take classes with them. They were put in different periods to force Luke help them meet other demons aside from the brothers. But everyone has lunch together.

iii) Next is Amso, (mostly) on his own. He's in the grade level he's supposed to be at. He does well in his class and may or may not charm someone for extra points.

iv) Levi is technically also in a grade on his own, but takes (almost only online) classes with all of his brothers. His anxiety really fucked him over when he tried to go to class in person. Once he fully quit trying to go in person, Lucifer worked with Diavolo to have a personal schedule to work out what different levels Levi is actually at so he won't flunk out of school.

v) Lucifer, Diavolo, and Barbatos are in the same grade, along with Satan. Though Satan is only with them for half of those classes. For the other half, Satan is actually at the grade level Mammon should be at (so I guess a grade lower than Lucifer). And Satan hates it. Sure he's proud to have skipped grades and he's even in advanced classes, but having to share the same space as Lucifer, awful!

vi) I honestly don't believe Diavolo and Barbatos need/have to go to school. But Diavolo does go to RAD because he thinks it's fun, and that it will help with making him seem more personable to his citizens. And since his lord wants to go to school Barbatos will stick by Diavolo's side.

vii) Solomon also doesn't need to be at RAD because he's a witty little sorcerer. He works as a teacher's assistant in several classes for credit, and chargers for private tutoring on occasion. Though for extracurricular classes like art, writing, etc. he takes them with Asmo.

viiii) MC takes classes with all the boys. The original plan was to have MC just be in the same classes with Mammon but the professors realized quickly that this human needs a special schedule else they'd be the third member of HOL that would almost fail out of school.

x) Don't ask me about the new undateables I'm not that far in the game yet. But, to guess Thirteen and Raphael are in a grade lower then the group that's with Mammon. And Mesphisto is in the same classes as Lucifer and he also hates it.

RAD is not the only school in the Devildom, but is the most prestigious and sought after school to attend.

An academy level school is more prestigious then a human world Ivy League college. That being said RAD is filled with high-end rich kid demons. Not saying every demon is stuck up though.

Diavolo picked RAD for the exchange program not only because the school is in his name sake. But, also due to the students of RAD being a toughter group to convince of his plan for unity. A lot of the students grew up believing/following old guard thoughts about humans and angels. In Diavolo's mind, if he can convince the students of RAD then it will be easier to convince the rest of the Devildom's citizens.

Demons graduate with degrees in leadership or in soul collecting. (ie.: working in one of the rings of Hell, being sent to the human world to make packs, or learning how to be apart of the Demon's Lord court)

There are other trade schools in the Devildom the teach skill like art, sewing, high level magic, etc.

That's all I got for now hope you enjoyed my ramblings 💙🐏
