{Cassidy POV}

We head in front of Mercy's room, he stands in front of the door. 

"You can go under that door, right...?" He points towards the floor.

"Wait what."

"Yea that's why the crack is under there... to go in secret."

"Are you..." I stopped myself, I didn't want to hurt his feelings... y'know, considerin' he could probably maul my face off. "no, never mind." I sighed out.

"Look, like this." There was a puff of blue smoke. He turns into these two...weird, blue, worm... ferret? Whatever it was it was most likely what I heard before I saw him, he squeezes himself thru the crack of the door.

I get on the ground to talk to him from under the door, at the same time, both of... him's? I guess, their snouts touch my mouth, he quickly pulls his heads back, and turns back, I could hear him fall. 

"SORRY. SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO THAT--"

I rub my mouth with my hand, god damn--- his nose was oddly wet. Like a dog's...Ew. I'm not going to think about it anymore."

"Shh- you're going to--"

I hear Mercy's bird start squawking, she's going to be pissed, Mercy and her bird, I'm not joking when I tell you she was spawned by the devil himself. Two animals I hate the most, Really aggressive chihuahuas, and whatever mercy's bird is... I'm convinced it ain't even an actual bird.

"Uh-- It's mad..."

"Yes... I noticed." I said a little annoyed.

"Can you uh, put your face, away from that crack, for about 30 seconds."

"You better not kill it..." I realize I never got his name, do demons even have names...?

"No, no, It wont die, I'm going to put it back to sleep."

He was truthful so far, maybe he's still telling the truth.

"Okay fine..." I bring myself up, taking a few steps away from the room for good measure... "But if it ends up dead, mercy will have me dead." I yell back. 

"I WON'T KILL IT." He snapped, out of annoyance.

I would be lyin' if I said it didn't catch me off guard for a second. He has been calm with me this whole time.

So, I leaned on the wall, waiting for him to be finished, soon the sounds of the bird gone quiet slowly. I heard a quiet knock from the inside of the door... and heard muttering

"No, that's not how you open it... maybe like..." He was trying to figure out how to open the door, I heard him messing with the lock, he was already really close to opening it, so, I'll just let him figure it out.

After a little more muttering to himself, he got it, he found out how to open the door quickly on his own...

He opens the door, there was a scent of like, lavender? Almost, it smelled nice.

"She is asleep now." he says, "I put a blanket over her, and I secreted a scent where it makes people feel euphoric, then makes them go to sleep." He pulls up the blanket to reveal the bird, sleeping peacefully, he was starin' it down, In an admirin' way.

"So like a drug huh." I remarked.

"A harmless one." He paused, as if he was recalling memories "I can't use it on myself, but other demons liked having me around as a child so they could get high... They fell asleep and that's when the sunlight got them."

That's.... I don't want to say depressin', but... Kind of depressin'

"They didn't like... hurt you... right...?"
