Chapter: 긍지 (Pride)
Author: Goddess of Hate
Word count: 192
Author's notes: This is the first of seven drabble-like bits. Each one is one of the seven deadly sins, and each one features one of the D's. It goes in no particular order. This one is 'pride.' None will be more than 200 words. The characters for the chapter titles are Korean. Each one translates into the sin the chapter is based on. Korean characters are very beautiful, and the look of them just sort of fits. At least, I think so.
I picked Sofu D for this one because he's always struck me as a very vain character. He just seems to have that aura of arrogance emanating from him. I know some people will probably wonder why I didn't choose Papa D, but Sofu just fit too well. Sorry, Papa D fans/haters! He'll have a chapter later, I promise.

Long purple nails ran through his short hair. Sofu D smiled benevolently into the mirror. His radiant face shone back at him.
He was going out tonight, to socialize with some rich clients of his. And like always, he would let his looks do the talking. None of the stupid humans present would be able to comprehend his logic, so he'd merely smile his enchanting smile and watch every woman in the room turn green with envy at his beauty.
Sofu picked up a small green perfume bottle and pressed down on the top. The soft cloud of lily-of-the-valley that engulfed him matched his soft skin wonderfully, he thought to himself.
A small frown graced his lips. No one would be able to take their eyes off of him tonight, but that was as bad as it was good. He could say the meaning of life to those foolish humans, and no one would listen. But alas, glory always came with a price, right?

A smirk.
"You are, of course."
