It actually makes perfect sense that Ozzie is into consent. He‘s a demon, after all.
Tumblr media
Let me explain.
If you think about it, there aren‘t actually many stories of either demons or fairies or any other kind of trickster ever forcing humans into anything.
They are going to fuck you over, sure, but they usually let YOU make a mistake first.
They bargain, goad you on, trick you.
The devil builds a bridge, he doesn‘t just abduct your firstborn. The fairies put food in front of you, they don‘t force you to eat. Succubi feed off your sexual energy, they don‘t magically make you horny.
Sin/transgression/damnation has to be a choice to mean anything.
See also: Nearly every horror movie ever. If that kid hadn‘t gone into the creepy attic (literal transgression), he wouldn‘t be possessed. If the camp counsellors hadn‘t been either fucking or pranking people, they wouldn‘t be getting axed.
The snake couldn‘t just shove the apple into Eve‘s mouth while she was sleeping, either.
Of course a demon would be interested in having consent on all sides. That‘s more people sinning, after all.
(And for the few weirdos who use Raphael from bg3 as an example of how evil a real demon should be… What is his big thing again…? Starts with c, ends with ontracts…?)
