[There's a ~~Darth Maul cosplayer~~ tall and annoyed demon pacing back and forth, playing almost nervously with his hands like there's a ring that should be there but isn't.]

Another reality show? I thought the last one was bad enough.

[He stops his pacing to look up at the ceiling, seeming to direct his anger at that.]

Leo! Leo Wyatt! Orb your whitelighter ass down here and do something useful for once!

[He waits a moment before he throws up his hands in frustration and goes back to pacing.]

Great, fine. Alright, you've got me here. Point me at whoever or whatever you want me to kill so we can get this over with.

[wow, that's a wild face you have there, buddy. and there is a much prettier one smirking from some nearby network station, eyebrows lazily raised.]

A veteran to this sort of thing, are you?

...I hate to tell you, though-- I doubt that murder is the key to ending this one.

[Excuse you, his face is totally pretty. As a human.]

You could say that. I've done another one before, but I didn't exactly get to finish it.

...Then what are we supposed to do instead? Doesn't sound like it'd be very entertaining otherwise.

[see, this is why you should keep your human face on. it's much better for the cameras.]

The point is supposedly to get the highest ratings. So, I suppose a little murder wouldn't hurt...

...It just doesn't buy you a ticket out of here. That would be far too easy.

[hey, some people are into this kind of thing. rule 34 and all. don't judge.]

The highest ratings, huh? Murder would definitely be one way to go about it. I'm sure there'd be a few other ways too.

[as someone who goes to great lengths to hide his own monstrous face, he's judging just a little.]

Oh, there are. I suggest trying a little bit of everything. The audience gets bored, otherwise.

Blood and entrails get old after a while.

[Well, Cole usually hides Belthazor, but the circumstances didn't give him the chance, okay.]

Well, it's a good thing that I'm good at being creative.

And I don't usually end up leaving blood and entrails. Fire's good at getting rid of that.

[oh, eyebrows up!]

Ah, you're a fire-wielder?

Some of my best friends have been associated with that element.

I prefer to use energy instead of fire, but both have the same end result.

[He holds out a hand and summons what looks like a blue ball of lightning in it, showing it off for a long moment before he closes his hand around it and it fizzles out with a snap.]

Oooo~

...So, does that mean that you have an actual affinity for those elements, or is that just a byproduct of...

[he kind of. gestures at the screen to indicate whatever's going on with his face there.]

It's part of the package of being a demon.

[He has zero shame about what he is despite usually hiding Belthazor away.]

Oh! I see.

...Goodness, your kind comes in all shapes and sizes, don't they?

All the better to not get killed off as easily.

[He laughs. Just because that's what he does.]

[ah, and he appreciates the easy laugh. especially in a place where there probably shouldn't be one at all.]

Oh, is that how it goes?

...Though, I have to admit you do stand out a bit, looking like that. It's not a very good disguise.

[Laughter is like punctuation for Cole. He laughs all the time.]

Oh this? I don't have to always look like this.

[And to prove his point, he changes into his human form.]

I wouldn't get anything done if I couldn't change.

Oh! See, this makes far more sense.

[he gets it now, seems reassured about the whole thing.

...he also takes a moment to eye the guy up and down--as much as he can across the screen.]

Not bad.

That it does.

[Cole notices that and he just kind of. preens because wow he is vain as hell and not afraid to show it.]

Why thank you. You're not too bad yourself.

[a little bit of flattery never killed anyone. probably.]

I would hope so. I'm rather proud of this face.

...And tell me, did you design this one yourself? Or is it something you can't control in detail?

[Hopefully.]

No, I was born with this face, so I have entirely no control over how it looks beyond personal hygiene and grooming.

...Did you design yours?

[He's a gentleman. He won't ask to see what he really looks like.]

Oh, how lucky!

[he appreciates the gesture. that usually is the first rude question he gets about it.]

I had a good foundation to work with, but I did work on the details myself.
