[The image is black and white, and a little fuzzy. It's actually scrolling vertically the way an old tube television would, which is stupid because this is a cell phone. But the Demon is too lazy to actually hold the phone and record something. So instead he is quite literally inside the phone and this is the result.

The Demon comes on screen against a backdrop of white, because he's currently standing in nothingness. He has a book in his hands and it's not on fire. Yet.]

As your resident bartender without a bar, I found this book. And I am way too lazy to make all you assholes mixed drinks with little umbrellas, but if someone wants it have at. I can make you all the ingredients and you can sip something pink and frilly while waiting for the next batshit crazy thing to happen.

[He is such a helper.]

Wait. You have vodka?

[notjustinthemirror]

Sure. I can have anything you like. It's what I do.

[64th]

I don't know what you mean. You make alcohol? Out of nothing?

[notjustinthemirror]

Exactly.

[And he does so, right now. One bottle of vodka coming up.]

[ her eyes go wide. this is the best development since her arrival. ]

What's the catch?

[notjustinthemirror]

Why does everyone ask that? There's no catch. I wouldn't be just giving it away if I wanted something in return. I'd hold it hostage until I got what I wanted.

[64th]

You look like a guy who knows how to benefit from a catch or two. [ she sounds like she's teasing. which she is, mostly. don't look a gift house in the mouth, etc etc. ]

Thanks. This might be the first good thing that's happened here.

[notjustinthemirror]

You say the sweetest things to a guy you don't even know.

I'm glad to be everyone's ray of sunshine in a cave full of bears. Except less a ray of sunshine and more an inferno of vodka that I lit on fire because I was bored. Same thing I guess.

[64th]

I have a very big heart.

[ she smiles. free alcohol could make anyone smile. ]

Cheers. I'm sure I'll be back.

[He salutes with a bottle and cuts the feed. Another satisfied customer.]
