Hey so we gotta get more clothes around here, some people are walking around looking like the last thread holding their pants together is gonna give up the ghost if they get hit with one more cursed flower plague or whatever, and I don’t want to see the results of that

This probably sounds like a joke but I’m serious, who wants to pool some stories so that we can keep everyone in pants

Uuuuugh that sounds about right for companies and shit. Why do demons work like a company anyway that's still wild

[eudaimonikos]

It's Hell. Of course it works like that.

[sucks for everyone, baby!]

[bitch4bitch]

Yeah I guess if it's supposed to super suck all the time it wouldn't be as effective if everyone's just doing their own shit. Gotta deal with like, Having A Boss

[eudaimonikos]

And everyone competing to become the boss.

[bitch4bitch]

Why do people WANT to be the boss of hell anyway. What do you get besides dress code control

[eudaimonikos]

Suit customization, too, if you don't like the human body you've got.
But it's really about the power.
People would respect you.
Be nicer to you, care about what you have to say.
You can choose what you do with your time.

[That was most of what he'd wanted it for, at least: the respect. In retrospect, it really was the closest he could've come back then to having friends - acquiring a few flunkies he didn't mind.]

You don't have to worry as much about getting retired, that sort of thing.

[bitch4bitch]

All good points tbh. Especially assuming ""retired"" is a euphemism for getting like, killed and eaten or something, which i do assume

[eudaimonikos]

A fair assumption!

[Not entirely accurate in terms of the specifics, but it all irons out about the same.]

Besides, what else are we going to do with ourselves? No one wants to do the same thing forever.

[bitch4bitch]

That tracks. And I guess you can only get that change of pace through demotions so many times before getting into real trouble, right?

[eudaimonikos]

That's about right.
No need for a useless demon to keep hanging around.

[bitch4bitch]

Gross! I guess that's a plus of being here, you don't have to worry so much about getting culled
