" I swear- it's so weird- I can't read it either! And I don't understand how it was glowing! " Y/N was trying their best to explain to the family of demons what they had seen the day Calvin had taken them. They walked down the spiraling stone stairs that led to the room they were in.
" Trust us, we've heard you say so a million times. " Selever set a hand on their shoulder. " Just chill out. Writing can't go anywhere. "
" He's right. We'll see when we open the door. " Ruv's voice rumbled lowly as they neared the heavy, wooden door. Seemed as if Calvin and Taki fled and weren't planning on coming back any time soon.
" I hope we can figure out what it says... " Y/N sighed, pushing open the door. They pointed at the wall where the writing was. " See? It's really-" They paused as they looked at the empty wall.
The empty wall.
" Wha- it- it was there a couple days ago!! It was engraved in the stone! I saw it!! " They turned to Sarv, then Ruv, then Ras, and then Sel, giving them all a desperate look. " I swear I know what I saw- "
" Y/N, dear... it was a stressful situation.. you might be imagining things... " Sarv spoke with a soft, comforting voice. Selever sighed.
" Mom's right, Y/N. I don't know what you saw, but clearly it isn't here. " Ruv slowly traced the stones on the wall as his son spoke.
" Hm.. seems to be nothing here at all. Just stone. " He added simply. Y/N's shoulders fell in defeat.
" I-.. I don't understand how.. " They mumbled, looking at the floor. Wow, did they feel stupid. But they really believed in what they saw. They weren't seeing things, they had seen glowing writing in another language, and they were going to figure it out, whether they had help or not.
" Cmon, Y/N. Let's go back home. " Ras looked down at them.
" You guys go ahead.. I wanna look around here for a while... " They responded quietly, staring at the wall.
" But- Y/N- we're not supposed to be alone- " Selever walked over a set his hand on their shoulder again. They sighed.
" I'll be okay, Sel.. clearly Calvin and Taki are long gone for a while, so it'll be alright.. I'll be back before dark.. okay? " They looked up at Sel, smiling a little. Sel opened his mouth to argue, but then sighed.
" Okay. Just- be safe, okay? " He hugged Y/N tight. They chuckled.
" I will. Seeya later, you guys. " They waved to the family as they walked back upstairs, closing the door. Y/N turned to stare at the wall again. " Now how do I deal with you... "
They turned around, looking at the dusty, cobweb coated stacks of books. They walked over and picked one up, blowing the dust off and gently sweeping the cobwebs away. They read the cover.
"The Paranormal in The Overworld "
They picked up another.
" Links between the Spiritual and Overworld Planes "
" Huh... whoever put these down here was really into ghosts.. " Y/N mumbled, sitting down by a candle and carefully opening the book. It made a satisfying crackle as they opened it, making them smile a little as they started reading.

' And with these words I shall speak, I shall summon the great beasts and ghouls from this plane, freeing them form their dastardly home under the great Prison Guard's reign. '
Y/N finished reading the last page, pausing to process what the hell they just read.
" ... huh. So someone tried summoning the Prison Keeper of the underworld, " They paused as they looked up at the wall. " And Calvin wanted to finish the job... that's why the writing was there.. and it was glowing because-... "
Their eyes widened.
" he did it. "
☯︎︎ ✞ ☯︎
Y/N ran home with some of the books under their arm, making sure to take ways that they would be unseen. They made it to the church and slipped inside, trying to sneak to their room without being noticed.
" Hey Roachy. " Y/N shrieked as Selever popped up behind them.
" SELEVER! You scared me! " They turned. Selever cackled, fluttering his wings.
" That was the point. " He smirked, then glanced down at the books. " Ohh- what're those? "
" ... books. "
" Well, duh- but what are they about? " He tried grabbing them, but Y/N moved them away.
" Paranormal stuff. Found em and I'm gonna keep em for a while. " The demon glanced at them, confused.
" Since when were you into ghosts? " He stood straight, tilting his head down at Y/N.
" Since now. " The grinned, and Selever paused, the shook his head, ruffling Y/N's hair.
" Whatever you say. So are you gonna lock yourself in your room again, or..? " He sounded kinda sad, and Y/N glanced at the books. They smiled then looked back up at Sel.
" No, I'm gonna spend the day away from books today. " Selever smiled excitedly, fluttering his wings again. He did that whenever he was really happy, so it made Y/N feel good that they made him feel that way.
They ended up watching a movie.
So original, Jazz.
Y/N shifted a little beside Sel on the couch, leaning against him. They didn't really notice, so they didn't do anything. Selever glanced down at them, slowly wrapping his wing around them and staring intently at the movie as his face went pink.
They both slowly fell asleep like that.
--- Bonus! ---
" Selever? Y/N? What are you tw- "
Ruv walked into the living room, seeing Sel and Y/N asleep. He paused, then chuckled quietly, walking away again.
awhhhh how sweetttttt.
