lucas was working at his desk in the church.

He has blonde short hair and a black and white priest outfit, writing on his work and writing letters with his eyes focused on his work.

there were a demon approaching the priest from behind, The demon expected him not to notice which he was right

Lucas looks up from his work and looks around

“Hello, is someone there?”

His tone having a small sound of fear in it as he looks around

He closes his eyes tightly, praying to the bible and asking for protection. He's a little frightened but doesn't want the demon to see that he is scared as it will only use it against him. His voice shaky yet strong as he talks "I am not afraid of you or any other demons..."

He flinches slightly, wincing at the touch of the demon's claws in his hair but refuses to react more than that, keeping his gaze locked with the demon's eyes, trying to show it that he isn't afraid. He knows he has to be strong now more than ever and stay true to what he believes in: The Bible and its teachings "I am not a child, but I will not partake in your... temptations."

*He instinctively recoils slightly, taking a step back from the demon and looking at it warily. He thinks about what kind of deal this demon could possibly propose and decides that he should listen, but remain cautious. Keeping his distance for now, he crosses his arms over his chest and says carefully: "What sort of deal do you have in mind?"

He narrows his eyes slightly, feeling somewhat confused and skeptical about this offer. Demons are known to deceive and trick people, so he's not entirely sure what the demon's true intentions are. However, he decides to play along for now, considering that it might be a better alternative than refusing outright and possibly provoking the demon into attacking him or someone else in the church. "And how would one 'be friends' with a demon?" he asks carefully, keeping his tone cold but curious.

The offer is strange, to say the least... but it could prove beneficial in some way. Lucas hesitates for a moment, considering the pros and cons of such an arrangement. Finally, he nods slowly and cautiously extends his hand, shaking the demon's clawed appendage firmly. "Very well," he says quietly. "You have my word that I will not try to harm or banish you as long as you abide by our agreement." His voice is calm but determined; he means what he says and expects the demon to keep its end of the bargain.

Lucas leads the demon to his small, simply furnished bedroom. As he enters and closes the door behind them, he turns to face it with a cautious expression. He doesn't know what sort of trouble this arrangement could lead to in the future, but for now, he must be careful not to break their agreement.

"Now," he says, sitting down on his bed and gesturing for the demon to do the same, "perhaps you could tell me why you want to 'be friends' with me... or at least live in close proximity." His voice is measured, curious but not entirely trusting.

He listens intently, not sure if he should believe the demon's claim. Demons are known to lie and manipulate; perhaps this is another one of their ploys. Still, there seems to be something genuine about the way it spoke. After a moment's consideration, Lucas decides that asking further questions might be a good idea. "What do you mean by 'liking'?" he asks cautiously. "Is this some sort of... personal attraction? Or perhaps an interest in my position and influence within the church?"

He blushes deeply, feeling a mixture of anger and shame rise within him. "Do not think to imply that I am so weak!," he practically snarls at the demon, clenching his fists in anger. "My faith is strong; nothing you could say or do would make me abandon it!"

He glares at the demon, daring it to respond. His heart pounds wildly in his chest as he struggles to control his emotions and remain true to what he believes in.
