Hello my dear people! I've recently been obsessing over Blue Exorcist and I've always wanted to write a story about it! And I've always wondered who raised our two favorite demons, Mephisto and Amaimon. By the way, this was actually inspired by a picture in DeviantArt that centered on Satan carrying a little Amaimon on one arm and a little Mephisto on the other. It's so damn cute! X3 Important! Mephisto and Amaimon are almost the same age here so that means more trouble for the devil!~
P.S.: Satan is younger(kinda...) and not so evil here! And he actually cares! (you could say a bit {lot} ooc but meh...I'm feeling in the fluffy mood)
Disclaimer: Me no own Blue Exorcist *sniff*
"MEPHISTO!"
A young man who looked no older than twenty-five ran after a little child with purple hair. Said child was currently leaving mud stains on the expensive ruby carpet that covered the corridors of the palace. The boy giggled and the curl that stuck out of the top of his head twitched in glee. The little black-violet tail that stuck out from behind him wagged a mile a minute.
Finally catching up to Mephisto by using his height advantage, the young man swooped the little demon off of the ground and slung him over his shoulder. And of course Mephisto didn't like that so he started screeching like a banshee. "Noooooo, daddy! I don' wanna take a bath!" Bawled the younger demon as they started walking towards the open door at the end of the hall.
Satan sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. For such a small thing Mephisto sure did have a LOT of energy in him. 'No wonder the servants and lower class demons run away from him.' thought the raven as he ignored his eldest son's whining. Royal blue eyes rolled when the kid their owner was carrying screamed something about the water being evil and it wanting to kill him.
The king of Gehenna finally reached the bathroom and with the snap of black clawed fingers, the door swung close and locked itself. Inside the bathtub, a one and a half year old Amaimon looked up from his toy that was shaped like a hobgoblin and stared at his father and brother with big cerulean eyes. "Wawwy? Mepi ba' boy wight?" Asked the green haired demon as best as he could.
Satan nodded and set Mephisto down, who immediately made a dash for the door. The taller devil instinctively grabbed his son's tail and tugged on it, but not so hard in order to not hurt the younger one.
The purple haired boy froze and hung his head in defeat. He whined when he felt bigger hands lift him up before setting him down on the sink. Satan tsked at all the mud on Mephisto's jacket as he unbuttoned it. He had warned both boys, mostly Mephisto, about playing near the murky banks of the river. The mud that came from there was somehow harder to remove than any other type of mud, so it was a pain in the ass when washing it off.
Once the clothing had been removed and thrown into the dirty cloth basket, Satan picked up the sulking Mephisto and lowered him into the bathtub next to Amaimon, who was currently pretending that his hobgoblin was a sea monster rather than an earth one and making it 'attack' the little boats there. He even made noises like 'nooooo' or 'woosh' when the toy smacked a boat.
Mephisto's tail immediately wrapped around his father's arm, wrinkling the perfectly ironed black sleeve of the shirt the older demon wore. Fearful lime-green stared pleadingly into royal blue. Satan almost fell for it had it not been for Amaimon's sudden sneeze that had distracted him. With one hand, he reached for the soap and rag that layed on the edge of the tub while the other, the one that had his eldest tail wrapped around it, abstenmindly scratched behind his son's ear.
It soon had the effect he desired. The tail loosened up its hold before sliding back into the water as its four year owner purred like a feline at the scratches.
Retrieving his hand, Satan lathered up the cloth, set the bar down, and gently started rubbing his younger child's back. Amaimon's little green tail wagged under the water, creating little swirls as the liquid rose in a spiral way to the surface.
The older demon squeezed the cloth over Amaimon's head. Soapy foam excess fell onto the little green spike of hair underneath it, making it look like a snow-capped mountain. Mephisto seemed to notice this and giggled.
The toddler noticed his aniue laughing, and not knowing at what was so funny, he also broke out into giggles.
Shaking his head and trying to hide a smile, the king of Gehenna ran his fingers through the green hair. Once he was finished, he gently grabbed the green tail of Amaimon and scrubbed it. The little demon started purring.
When he was finished with the green haired child, he moved on to Mephisto. Other than the occasional splash and giggle, the rest of the bath went by smoothly.
Satan rolled up his sleeve and reached into the tub. He pulled the chain that was connected to a small plug and the little thing popped out of the drain. Bubbly water raced down the drain with a series of gurgles. Both now clean children giggled at the sounds.
The devil shook his head and pulled out two white towels from the cabinet. He unfolded one and wrapped it around Mephisto before pulling him out. The little four year old wrapped the towel more tightly around him as the cold air hit his wet skin. Lime-green eyes watched as the older demon pulled out their owner's little brother from the tub with the towel already around him.
Satan carried the little toddler on one arm and unlocked the door with the other. He opened it and turned back to Mephisto, extending his now free arm. The child took it as an invitation and ran over to his father, snuggling up against him as the elder's hand rested on his shoulder. The king of Gehenna lead his son out of the bathroom and into the hall.
As they walked to the brothers' shared room, Mephisto and Amaimon suddenly yawned in unison, revealing little underdeveloped fangs. "It's straight to bed with you two once your dressed," stated their father. The only reply he got was a sleepy "Yes wawwy" from Amaimon and a nod from Mephisto.
He waved his hand from its spot on Mephisto's shoulder once they reached the room. The door obediently opened before closing behind them as they crossed it.
Satan walked over to the single bed that was wide enough for two grown adults to sleep in and set down Amaimon on top of it. Mephisto slowly hopped on it.
Both demons watched through half lidded eyes as their father took out their sleeping cloth from the drawer and bring it over to the bed where he layed it out.
The king picked up Amaimon first and unwrapped the towel that was draped over him. He gently dried the toddler's hair with it before setting it aside. Picking up the laid out diaper, Satan strapped it around the little demon's waist. Finally, he grabbed the kiddie sized red shirt that had a little sleeping hobgoblin in its front and pulled it over the green haired child's head.
Now that Amaimon was dressed, Satan placed him at the centre of the sheets, were he started nodding off. He patted the edge of the bed and Mephisto yawned as he crawled over.
The older demon dried the purple hair as well and slipped on the four year old's undergarments. A white pair of shorts and long sleeved shirt soon followed suit.
Once his children were dressed, the raven pulled back the red sheets and tucked both younger demons in. The two young ones almost nodded off immediately when their heads touched the pillow. Instead, Mephisto and Amaimon yawned once again in unison as they snuggled together. Their tails moved sluggishly under the covers as well when they wrapped around one another.
Satan shook his head and with a smile, he started to walk to the door but mumbles from the direction of the bed made him pause.
"Nigh' wawwy."
"G'nigh' daddy."
Royal blue eyes glanced at the bed with a surprised look in them before their owner whispered back,"Night boys."
And with that, he parted, leaving behind two blissfully sleeping demons in bed.
P.S.: Sorry if its extremely OOC but this WAS a request before from a 'friend' and I don't know wether to continue this or not. I wasn't even sure if I should post it since this things old. *sighs* Well, hope you enjoy and if you've got time, spare a comment, yes?
