>>106265347I like the idea that they grate on each other, or more accurately he grates on her, but there's so much inexplicable magnetism that they can't keep away from each other
Like obviously she finds him incredibly annoying, but he's also probably the only mortal who can see her without shitting themselves in terror/going insane/losing their soul, so while she can't honestly say she actually *likes* him, she can't bring herself to actually cut him out of her life completely and never argues too hard when some circumstance forces her to contact him however briefly. And even if she ends up regretting it, any interaction that isn't dominating lesser demons or torturing damned souls or whatever she does all day is still unique and somehow tantalizing in it's mundanity. Dave is a bit of a loser, can't read the situation at all, always ends up saying the wrong things and either trying to get back into her (no)pants or cracking dumb jokes or trying to get her to come to his office christmas party, but he's actually treating her like a person, and he's surprisingly great with Satina despite him being a powerless mortal and her being a freaky hellspawn that doesn't always obey the laws of reality.
But yeah, pretty much anything other than a pathetic shit sack would be fine.
