So, since it looks like we're gonna be stuck with each other, I'm gonna get certain things about myself out in the open. It'll save me a lot of misunderstanding and time spent explaining myself over and over.
Hi! I'm Naama. I'm a succubus, and here's what that means:
* Yes, I am a demon. I was forged in hell out of human sins in order to punish humanity for their sinful nature.
* No, I am not inherently evil. The metaphysical details of my birth don't dictate what kind of person I am. I have never killed someone, and don't intend to change that.
* Like all demons, I subsist on mana, which I can only get by taking it from humans. I'll only do this from willing partners, after establishing clear consent.
* If you've heard the word succubus before, you can probably guess what draining mana means. If not: It's sex. I subsist on human desire. It is what it is, please don't make it weirder than it has to be.
TLDR: Every week or so, I need to feed via a sexual encounter with a human. It's kind of like the touch requirement we all have here, but more specific and intense. I keep the mana drain as light as I can, so there's no actual danger of anything worse than feeling lightheaded and dizzy afterwards, like you had your blood drawn. I try not to hit up the same person too often, just to be safe.
Personally, probably because I have to do it regularly to live, I don't really see sex as anything too special. If you can handle the occasional feeding session without getting weird about it, let's hang out and see if we vibe. Don't get your hopes up about dating, I've yet to find someone I wanted to have a romantic relationship with.
So, uh, with all that awkward stuff out of the way, consider this an AMA. From talking to people, I've gathered that there's a lot of different kinds of demons in different worlds, and they all work in different ways, so as long as you don't get too invasive or aggro, I'm happy to clear up any questions or misconceptions.
Take care!

So, did you want to know anything else about me? Compared to the adventures I've heard people talk about in the last couple days, my life is pretty boring.

Hah. [ A flickered smile up at her. ] I think I would've been more surprised to hear that before the hell dimension, but it turns out hell can be pretty mundane. And we definitely had an audience of very bored demons.
[ Another bite of his sandwich while he thinks. ]
Let's see. I definitely wanted to make sure you actually wanted to go this route for feeding, and wouldn't rather a bunch of us spend the next week trying to find ways around it.

It's kinda complicated. I don't know how well the concept translates across cultures, but I actually identify as asexual?
I don't hate sex or anything, it feels good and all that. I just don't know how much I'd seek it out if I didn't have to. When you need something to live, it's easy for it to just seem kind of unremarkable.
Short answer? Ambivalent. If I found another way to recharge, I'd probably have a lot less sex, but I also probably wouldn't quit cold turkey.

I mean, fair. [ Lips quirked. ] If I had to pick between sex and a good hard fight...
[ One-shouldered shrug. He'd probably take the fight most of the time.
If he had the vocabulary, he might say he's some flavor of gray-ace himself.]Is there anything that might make it a better time for you? Like if we put on — I don't know, a movie.
no subject
[ Yes, sex as a chore. Still, there are more annoying chores out there. ]
no subject
Okay. I'll trust you to let me know if there's anything I should be doing or not doing once we start.
[ Finishing off the sandwich, he leans back with another sip of water. ]
It's been nice meeting you. You've got my number, so to speak. So drop me a line when you need a charge. In the meantime, I should probably get back to looking for work.
