Obey Me Mephistopheles - Blog Posts
Alright everyone I have a question/request and hopefully some of you are willing to answer or participate. I want to know why your favorite obey me character is the best character. For instance if you like Solomon tell me why he’s so great, or if you like Raphael why is he the best angel boy. I will admit I do have favorites but I’m curious if anyone can convince me to like a character that I’m not sure about. I won’t say who they are though I want to hear honest opinions on this.

The Issue We Didnt Cause
Rating - Mature (themes used)
Fandom - Obey me
Pairings - Mephistopheles/Mammon, Diavolo/Lucifer, Mephistopheles & Diavolo
Characters - Diavolo, Mephistopheles, Lucifer, Mammon
Inspired by this post by @thatweirdkin
Summary - 20 years since the fall of the brothers and since Diavolo has spoken to Mephistopheles he summons him to the castle for a chat about their friendship, and a surprising event that happened between him and Lucifer
Authors note - I became a little obsessed with this idea and couldnt get it out of my head. I will warn this has mentions of grooming (look at OG post to fully understand)
Im aware this isnt the canon order of events and Mephistopheles is slightly OOC (for a reason trust everything i do is for a reason) but hush its a fic let me have my whimsy. I also enjoy how things sometimes have names/dialogue different colors on here sometimes so thats why theyre different colors :3
Might turn this to a full fledged fic (here and Ao3) if it gets enough traction

Everything was as it was. Thats what Mephistopheles thought when that angel came into the picture. "Nothing will change between us, I promise" What a lie. Diavolo never lied to Mephistopheles until that dreaded day that good for nothing angel fell. Mephistopheles was always taught from the moment he was born that he was ment to be Diavolos playmate, his best friend. Diavolo was supposed to be his entire reason for exsisting. This wasnt fair. None of this was fair on Mephistopheles. Hes supposed to be the one always on Diavolos side, not that sorry excuse for a right hand.
Mephistopheles was pacing back and forth in his study trying to figure out how to respond to Diavolo.
Diavolo - Hey Mephis, i apologize for not speaking for so long. Come to the castle at your earliest convenience. Please my friend we need to talk.
Diavolo hasnt spoken to him properly in 20 years why now is that changing. Is Lucifer finally leaving? Is he finally giving his place back by his side? Even though he had work to do he decided to take a break to head to Diavolos castle. His mind was racing with whatever Diavolo could want from him to summon him so suddenly. Especially after not speaking to him after 20 years.
Mephistopheles - Im on my way, I shall see you in a moment.

Mephistopheles knocked on the castles doors. He was hoping that maybe Diavolo would answer the door but alas Barbatos was always going to be the one to greet him. "Hello Mephistopheles, Diavolo is in his study. Would you like me to lead you there?" Barbatos bowed his head allowing the Duke to walk inside. "No need Barbatos, I remember where it is. Thank you." Mephistopheles returned the head bow, while unnecessary, Barbatos did help raise him and Diavolo. He made his way to Diavolos study that he remembered very vividly. The desk that Diavolo would always sit at whenever he walked through the door. The fire that Diavolo would put on in the winter months with his magic. The couch they would eventually sit on sharing a bottle of demonus laughing and eventually start play fighting. Those were the beautiful days that Mephistopheles remembered so fondly. The days when Diavolo didnt replace him with an angel. The days where Diavolo actually cared about him.
He knocked on the door to Diavolos office to hear a voice that he missed dearly. "Come in." Without second thought Mephistopheles opened the door and was greated by Diavolos familiar smile, and Lucifer sitting on Diavolos desk infront of the crowed prince. "Mephistopheles! Im glad your here. Luci we can continue this conversation later tonight is that alright with you? I wish to speak with Mephistopheles alone." Diavolo got up and placed a hand on Lucifers thigh. "Of course my lord. I shall see you tonight." Lucifer got down from the desk and started to leave the room. "Mephistopheles." He bowed his head some and left the room shutting the door behind him.
"Its good to see you Mephis. I've really missed you." Diavolo walked over to give his old friend a hug but Mephistopheles crossed his arms and was obviously upset. "This is how you greet me after not speaking to me for twenty years?" the duke tried to have a playful tone to his voice but he couldnt hide his obvious pain that snuck out every now and then. How could he not be upset, the man he cared about replaced him with an angel that could ruin his reputation and may not even care about the prince the way that he did. "I understand that you are upset... Rightfully so, but please understand my friend. My father fell asleep right after the brothers fell leaving me with no guidance, I was so stressed that i accidentally cut you out of my life. I deeply apologize." Diavolo put his hand out signalling him to sit down so they could have a proper chat.
Mephistopheles took this moment to take a good look at Diavolo. His hair was as it always was but something different about the way he looked at him. Those golden eyes had something hiding in them and on devils name was Mephistopheles going to figure it out. Mephistopheles sat down on the couch in his usual spot. The strange thing was that it felt the same from the last time that he sat there. "Does Lucifer not sit here?" Mephistopheles looked at Diavolo who sat down next to him on his right. "No the chair next to mine at my desk is where he sits, when we relax we're typically at the chess table or in my bedroom. Now the reason why i asked you to be here." Mephistopheles held Diavolos hand, when he looked down he noticed something strange. On his ring finger was a silver ring with vine engravings and blue sapphires. Mephistopheles was surprised, Diavolo never wore silver, he always wore gold. Come to think of it Lucifer had a gold ring on the same finger.
"Diavolo why are yoy wearing a ring?" Mephistopheles looked at Diavolo who smiled gently. "Thats one of the reasons why i wanted to speak to you. Not the main reason though but I wanted you to be the first to know. Lucifer and I are together, he allowed me to tell you after a few years of convincing though." Diavolo chuckled with the same smile. "Im sorry... A few years? When did you two get together." Mephistopheles felt his heart drop. He was dating Lucifer, sure it was fine but Lucifer? The man that caused a war, the man that had him replaced. Diavolo thought for a moment and had a guilty look on his face. "Ok dont be mad, three years after he fell" Mephistopheles looked at Diavolo shocked. Diavolo wasnt looking at him instead his golden eyes focusd on the ring on his finger smiling. "Now the reason-" Mephistopheles stood up and looked spoke without speaking. "You would date a rust blood but wouldnt even bother calling me back?!" Diavolo stood up also and put his hands on Mephistopheles shoulders. "Thats... Why i asked you to come... We need to talk about our relationship" Mephistopheles backed away. "Whats there to talk about... You abandoned me for-" Diavolo raised his voice. "Call him anything other than his name and you can forget about having this conversation!"
Mephistopheles looked at Diavolo who wasnt happy in the slightest. "He has a name and you will refer to him as such." Mephistopheles looked down and sighed. He knew Lucifers name, but he couldnt bring himself to say it, his anger couldnt bring himself to say the name of the man that cuased his replacement, that caused Diavolo to stop caring about him. "Fine... You abandoned me for Lucifer. What more is there to say?" Mephistopheles looked at Diavolo and saw that he looked hurt. It had been years since he had seen Diavolo give that same look to him specifically. "You think i abandoned you? Yes i ghosted you but I didnt abandon you Mephis, I'm sorry you feel like I did but that was never my intention." Diavolo steped back towards his friend to fully talk to him. "Let me explain please, then i will allow you to speak your mind." Mephistopheles looked at Diavolo, the look in his eyes were a mix of guilt and pitty. "Alright fine explain."
"I was speaking to Luci the other day about how i missed you and ive come to realize something with his help. Our relationship isn't healthy for either of us. You were conditioned to satisfy my every whim, you were also conditioned to be forced to not only respect me but to be put on this pedistal that I am above not only your wellbeing but also everything." Mephistopheles looked at Diavolo. He wasnt conditioned to feel this way, he felt this way on his own, sure his father Astaroth reminded him to make sure he didnt say no to Diavolo but he never said no to the King so he thought it was just normal. "Diavolo I dont know what you're talking about, I was not conditioned to do anything of the sorts my feelings for you are my own." Mephistopheles heard Diavolos sigh and started to get frustrated. "I loved you! I love you Diavolo. And you replace me with someone who barley knew you when you two met? What about me?! I spent every day with you. I spent every hour by your side, i worship the ground you stand on. I dont understand what Lucifer has that i dont!"
Diavolo grabbed Mephistopheles arms and pulled him close to him, Mephistopheles felt the warmth that radiated from his body, the warmth that Mephistopheles has missed over these 20 years. "Listen to yourself! Listen to what you are saying! I dont want that! I love you yes but thats not the love either of us want or need! I needed a friend i have people who already listen to my every whim. Which is why i was so drawn to Lucifer when we first met, he was hesitant about my idea and told me, Lucifer not only treats me like a person, he sees me as a person not just the prince of devildom. You need to understand that." Mephistopheles thought about what he said. He thought long and hard, finally letting his words sink in. He looked up at Diavolo who smiled gently seeing that he finally understood what he was saying. "I thought I was doing well... I just wanted to hear your praise and hear you say that you cared about me" Mephistopheles put his head on Diavolos shoulder. "Its alright my friend. You know now, im sorry for only realizing now before it became to much. Consider this our fresh start we can start over from here and go forward" Diavolo hugged Mephistopheles who hugged back and they stayed like that for a while.
It would take a while for Mephistopheles to stop trying to be so close to Diavolo but as long as Diavolo stays paicent with him, hes sure he would be able to. Maybe be could move on and find someone on his own terms instead of having Diavolo tell him to date. Maybe one day.

Authors note - I will make this a full fic if you guys want me to. But only if other people want i wont bother if not. (I do have some ideas if I do continue but yeah feel free to comment or repost ideas if you have.)
You made Mephi so adorable I love him
Lots of Mephi love 💕
For @faedria
Commission me here!
Mephisraph headcanons because i need to apparently feed myself in this house
(Added some of my family headcanons too, Kids to be ranted about at a later date <3)
- A lot of people ask Mephistopheles if they have ever dated a guy before. Contrary to popular belief they have dated Multiple. But they get so smiley and embarrassed while Raphael acts more natural then Mephistopheles they thought it was the other way around. (The we should go to utah sound is literally just them)
- Mephistopheles texts Raphael random Taylor swift (hes a swifty you cant change my mind unfortunately) lyrics and says "us". Raphael proceeds to remind his poor partner that they keep sending lyrics from breakup songs and if theres something they are trying to hint at. (Mephistopheles was just trying to be cute)
- whenever Raphael can tell Mephistopheles is getting an attitude or getting snipy with him he will pick them up over his shoulder and carry them to their classes. Doesnt matter if their classes are on the other side of the building his partner is getting moody and he needs to fix it. So having them yell it out while hes carrying them always works.
- Mephistopheles loves to be threatened by Raphael. Pinned against the wall with his sphere against their throat makes them absolutely swoon. (Theyre a demon of course he loves to be threatened by their boyfriend)
- People often think that Raphael is ignoring Mephistopheles when they go on their long rants. But in reality Mephistopheles's ranting is the only loud noise that Raphael enjoys to an unmeasurable level. Raphael had a rough day? "Beetle (Mephistopheles's nickname/petname) how was your day?" Raphael needs background noise when hes sewing? "Tell me about the newest article you wrote" anything that gets Mephistopheles talking
- Mephistopheles watches reality TV and Raphael pretends not to like it. But he definitely gets invested and they both argue with the people on tv that cant even hear them
Now family headcanons :3
- Mephistopheles is the stay at home parent/partner. Mf is to spoiled to work and is proceeding to spoil their kids but theyre not spoiled rotten thank the lord.
- Raphael is 100% the more intimidating parent. Mephistopheles always pulls the "dont make me call your father" card on their fighting children.
- They are literally the Opitamy of the bobs burgers "i need to talk to your father" clip.
- Mephistopheles 100% asked for the first kid, then Raphael kept getting baby fever (the three kids were made out of combined magic might do a whole post about that because ive come up with so much)
- Mephistopheles definitely lets their kids dye their hair if they asked. And they definitely help (Raphael comes home to their bathroom a color mess and Mephistopheles going absolutely HAM on their kids hair)
- Mephistopheles is also the kind of parent to encourage his kids to be super pety. Much to Raphaels dismay (keep in mind all of their kids are angels
Gonna come up with more and even some incorrect quotes :3
Tried my hand at drawing scars (i headcanon that him and beel have scars from their training/learning to use weapons) i might give him a few less but havent decided yet :3
Now to actually work on my schoolwork and be a functioning member of my school (i dont want to but this project is due tomorrow and is apparently worth 50% of my grade😭)
So um, I have a very strange Fan fiction idea that i have to see if anyone came up with so im not rewriting something thats already been written (if you know ANYTHING please let me know)
So my friend @booskiroo and i were on the phone the other day and we joked about Diavolo being a chaotic baby but if something happened Barbatos would just make sure the baby never happened because he was so annoyed. But its been bothering me so much because i cant stop thinking about it! It would be so intresting!
Because like think about it, Demon king didnt have any other children so he helped raise Mephistopheles to take over. Mephistopheles and Lucifer meet and didnt like each other at first but then learned to get along for the sake of Devildom and keeping face. Then falling for eachother like come on!
If anyone knows if a fic like this exists please send me the link/title if not i will actually write this because it is EATING me alive.
Note - I should probably mention that while Yes Dialuci is my favorite ship i am a multishipper so hopefully that clears things up :3
I dont know anything about this guy
I've been getting into Obey Me again from years ago. So, I drew my top favorites
