Hey...

[ Little wave. The crooked smile of a guy who wanted to go for a more bombastic self-intro and chickened out at the last second. He's addressed crowds and cameras so many times but he's had the same audience basically since birth... it's a little weird addressing strangers. He's shooting from inside one of the starter apartments, leaning against a desk in a posture that's relaxed, casual... and clearly affected. ]

I'm Twilight. People also call me the Demon King? Not here though! I'm new. Thanks to everyone who's helped me out. At the start, during that whole... incident. I didn't think I'd get used to the sun rising every every day but I'm kind of glad to have it back after nothing at all. Haha.

[ Immediately doubting whether laughing about that was a good idea, is he making light of their disaster aaaah- deep breath Twilight. ]

There are a lot of questions I'd like to ask! But I don't want to just poll everyone on the network and miss out on the nuance, I want to get to know everyone here and... how they feel, not just what they think.

So... I heard they have a lot of saunas in Frostreign, so I'm inviting anyone who thinks that sounds relaxing to join in for a group visit. As a kind of get-to-know-me. They're popular back home too, so it's familiar ground for everyone, right?

Again, open invitation, so just let me know if you're interested!

[ Spa Day with the Demon King, what an adventure. ]

Uh, I gotta pass on that one? I don't think I can be around you while we're both undressed and not make it weird for you, sorry.

Undressed? Don't you wear swimsuits in?

Do you? I haven't gone to the ones here, but the ones in the City you'd be naked in...

Edited 2025-06-01 00:46 (UTC)

...

DID I JUST TELL EVERYONE IN THE CITY I WANT TO SEE THEM NAKED???

Demon king, huh? Color me intrigued.

Yeah, sure. I'd be down. Sounds like fun.

[...Does it? Koro's deadpan expression and emotionless voice doesn't sound very excited...]

Oh- that's uh-

That's good?

Just out of curiosity. Do you wear a swimsuit in?

I haven't really gone to a sauna before, but if I did, it depends on the sauna or hot springs or whatever. Traditionally you go in naked, I think, but if they have rules that you need to cover up, I use a towel.

Heh, why? You shy? I did think it was bold of you to invite an opportunity to make new friends to a sauna of all places.

Uhhhhh. I'm sure most people will accept it as a misunderstanding?

I'm not shy.

[ He kinda is. ]

I just. Don't want to be so bold that it scares some people off. This is supposed to be for anyone.

Yeah, I get it. Being so bold that it scares people off can bum you out a little.

Don't ask me how I know.

Anyway. When were you wanting to meet up?

Maybe I should just construct a mystery dungeon under the city instead.

For the next ten years.

You’d have to come back up and get touch energy regularly, or I’d have to go down and check on you. So I don’t think that’s a great plan.

I forgot about that... I'd have to find another hermit...

You'd really come check on me?

I would! I don’t want you to turn into a statue, that would suck?

Right? Scaring people off is such a waste. It's like never even getting to the starting line with someone. So maybe we should all wear swimsuits.

I... should see if anyone else is joining before I set up a time.

[ At this point he's assuming he's already sunk the entire venture from square one but there's always that shred of hope that luck will prevail. ]

I have never had the pleasure of visiting a sauna before. Let alone with royalty such as yourself. I would be honored to join you.

Of course. The more the merrier.

In the meantime, elaborate on this whole "demon king" business?

Never? This'll be fun. I'll let you know when I have a date!

What should I call you?

It's my title? Leader of demonkind? Usually you'd use that instead of my name.

I mean. It would. But if I was in the bottom of a dungeon it would be tough...

[ Saying she'll chase him down to do it is different, isn't it? Feels that way to him, anyway. ]

You sure you don't want to come? I'm going to wear something anyway since I don't know what everyone is used to. And there'll be other people there. You're not... that uncontrollable, right?

I respect boundaries!

[She's not that kind of a creep.]

I mean, if there's swimsuits then I guess it's fine?

I know! I mean, I felt safe when I stayed over at your place. I don't think you'd do anything I wouldn't want even if there weren't, honestly. But I don't want you to be uncomfortable because you're thinking too much about decorum, either. So just, uh. If you think you can relax and enjoy it please come, and if you can't that's fine too!

I can come. If it gets to be weird I can always just leave early, right? So there's no problem.

Sure.

No saying it's weird just to get out of the cold water plunge, though!

Please, what do you take me for? I can handle a little cold water.

Ah sorry, I mean like...how do I put this politely...

I mean this with utmost affection and not trying to be insolent or insulting, but I don't get "leader of demon kind" vibes from you. You're so...adorable.

Adorable???

[ For his goals, that's a far better thing to be than scary. Especially here, far from home or his subjects, where there's no whose expectations of the demon king should hold any weight. But he still feels that twinge of shame. People should look up to the demon king with respect, at least, surely? ]

That's - well - this is a casual video, so I'm keeping it relaxed. But don't think this is all there is to the demon king! Those who challenge me will know...

[ Uhhh... 'terror' seems too mean... ]

Moderate... lamentation!

It's really cold!

[ Can handle it better than Twilight, apparently. Don't ask how a guy who uses lava and whiteout blizzards in his interior decorating can be this dramatic about a little ice water... ]

I have had longer exposure to colder substances in more sensitive places. -Remind me to introduce you to the Snow Queen sometime if I get the chance.

[ He's soooo close to grasping the implications, but then he gets distracted. ]

Snow Queen? That sounds promising. Is she like the faeries or the lake rulers? Part of a realm in the segments?

Oh, she's an Abnormality at home - she's not here right now! Sorry to get your hopes up. But she is made of ice.

Oh.

[ ...a few seconds pass before something ticks over in his head and he suddenly flushes red. Implications received. ]

Wait, and you - wouldn't you get, you know, too numb to... feel anything?

Friction causes heat! Which helps a lot, but it's definitely not something you'd want to make a marathon session out of. Quick and fast is definitely the way with ice people.

Oh hell...

[Koro turns a ghastly gray as he clamps his mouth and looks to the side, looking just a little flustered.]

I'm lamenting alright...about the fact that I'm not over there already squishing your little face...

[THE CUTE AGGRESSION IS REAL]

I'm used to demons looking like nightmarish abominations...and behaving as such. Are you disguised right now? Or is this your true form?

[ She did tell him about the radio wave... maybe he shouldn't be surprised? ]

Where there's a will there's a way, I guess...

[ He fidgets for a moment. ]

I mean. Sorry if that sounded dismissive. I... appreciate that there's someone who's open about that kind of thing, too. I can't really ignore it if I want to get along with humans, either...

You totally could, though. Most humans are not nearly as forthright about that stuff as I am - you could definitely build lasting friendships with humans and not have sex come up at all.

[He doesn't have to put up with her.]

...I guess there's no harm in just telling you.

I wouldn't say I'm disguised but I do have... another form. But I don't want to terrify people without reason. So I keep it sealed away until I have need of it.

[ Look the drama isn't fake he honestly believes that his other form is scary as heck. But 'scary as heck' is definitely the right phrase here. ]

I don't want to exclude you, though. You're my first friend here.

[Not disguised? So that's his real form? Or one of, rather. Bloody hell, why does he get to look cute? Koro can't have SHIT—]

Another, more terrifying form, you say...seems like we may have more in common than you might think.

[Koro is a demon as well...why he isn't saying as such might just be him having fun messing with the guy. A demon loves to torture and all that.

But he does let up eventually.]

I hope I never have to bring my form out.

Oh!

[That flusters her a little, she’s still super weak to friendship.]

Well, I mean, you could still ask me to tone it down?

If you were that insensitive we wouldn't be having this conversation.

And if I do want to talk about... sex you've saved me the trouble of figuring out how to broach the topic, at least...

That's true. I am good for that.

-Sorry. I'll try not to stress about it too much.

[ Stressing is his job, don't take that from him! ]

Great! I'll let you know when I have a time.

I hope other people are interested!
