[ The video feed opens to... it looks like a park? From what can be seen, anyway, because most of the screen is filled with ducks. ]

[ That's right. There's ducks covering the ground, the bench that the man in the video is sitting on, and even the man himself. There has to be a couple dozens of them at least, but if the incessant quacking is any indication, there may be more behind the frame. ]

[ A couple ducks keep trying to hop off the bench, but the man carefully herds them back with an open hand, apparently determined to keep them nearby. ]


Greetings, citizens! Would anyone happen to be in need of a duck? I, ah, [ a duck perched on his shoulder starts fluffing up and flapping its wings, and he tries to lean away but still gets slapped over the head a few times before he finally raises his free hand to try and cover himself from the onslaught so he can speak without getting a mouthful of feathers ] seem to find myself in a bit of a bind here. I was hoping I could train them, but [ one of the ducks manages to slip off the bench and immediately makes a break for it, agitating the ducks already on the ground that start wandering off in different directions ] they're not listening to me and-- MARGARET, COME BACK!

[ There's some shuffling and the video feed just shows the sky as the phone was apparently placed down in a hurry. There's quacking and sounds of struggle for a few minutes. ]

[ If you're still watching, well, eventually the phone is picked up and Katsura looks like he's just been in a pretty brutal pillow fight. Meaning that yes, there's a bruise on his cheek and feathers in his hair and the neckline of his kimono is a bit askew. There appears to be less ducks around him now, though you may spot some in the pond in the distance, a few in the sky, a mass of them running all over the park... ]


Anyway, as I was saying. Ducks to a good home available today at Central Park! First come first serve, so please make haste, as they are proving to be quite popular. As you can see. [ Tilts the phone to show the now-empty bench, as if that's supposed to prove that somebody came and adopted all the ducks, rather than them all simply ditching him. Which is exactly what happened. You may also spot a Shady Shop duck whistle laying nearby. ] Ducks make excellent pets and are incredibly emotionally intelligent, so do make sure you're serious about the adoption!

[ A duck's face appears in the frame, staring at the screen point blank before quacking with determination. Looks like one stayed with him, at least. ]

That's right, Eleanor! Thank you. There will be an interview in person.

See you soon~

[In a swirl of red smoke and golden sparkles, a man suddenly appears. He is in a white and red suit, looking very much like a fancy clown ringleader, and he is grinning with sharp teeth. He looks right at Katsura.]

Hello! I am here about the ducks.

I hope you're smart enough to make sure that whoever takes the duck doesn't wind up eating them behind your back.

Oryou can eat the ones that don't get adopted.

[Oryou no.]

Wow, that's amazing! Why do you have so many?

Wow, there's so many of them! And they're so small!

[They are probably normal-sized ducks, her world's ducks just happen to be giant.]

Are you really giving them away though, just like that? It's hard to imagine, after you already named them.

[The scream doesn't affect Lucifer. After all, the Devil suddenly standing before you is often a terrifying experience for most mortals. He does note the protection of Eleanor. This person is likely a good person.

Well, in Lucifer's mind and assumptions anyway. He looks at the ducks and puts on a cutsie little voice.]


I wanna adopt them and take them back to my Hotel. I will build them a duck pond in the courtyard and feed them every day and people can sit and feed them, pet them, and just enjoy their company~
roundandaround: Sheepish. (well......)

So you summoned a whole bunch of them? What are you gonna do with them all?

Why not?

[This is a completely genuine question.]

[The question, which Lucifer takes as an accusation, instantly turns his eyes back to Katsura.]

I would never! Ducks are magnificent creatures that should be cherished! Not simply stolen away to be made into food!

I resent the insinuation entirely! Ducks are one of the greatest creations of the Heavens and I would defend them with my life! And I recently took an axe to the chest to protect a mahogany door, sir! I would dare risk oblivion to save these beautiful feathered beauties!

Aren't they wild ducks in the first place? Well, that's okay! I bet we'll all help you find them!

They're all so cute! I don't think I can pick just one! But I know that I don't have enough room!

How can you make me pick only just one?
