["Disadvantaged" against another demon or devil. What a thought. Not many made her fit that bill back home, so this might require a bit of creativity on her part... Possibly. She'd probably do well to garner a few more details before they dive in head-first into demon-killing. Preparation is key!]
That depends. Just what are we talking about when it comes to what a demon can do in this world? Or are they that varied, and we won't know until we summon it?
Depends on the demon. Lesser demons are more animalistic. They hunt, they eat, they survive. You won't find anything terribly complicated there. And ideally, that's where we start.
[ The implication here being that if this does go well, they can work their way up to more powerful quarry. Whatever might sate her. ]
I've yet to see a demon who looks as human as you do, but the more powerful ones are definitely more humanoid, in look and intelligence.
But in either case, it's the hellfire that will be the problem.
As in, the literal fires of hell? Yes. But more than that, it's extremely effective against magic. It simply burns through it as if it were nothing. My tricks are going to be a distraction at best.
Yes, fun. That thing that people like to have, sometimes.
[One day, she will make Warren... have fun.]
No objections. I did say that I'd leave you alone now. Unless you've changed your mind and decided that yes, you'll let me shoot you once with my water gun...?
[ He pauses there at the edge of the pool, considering her for a moment. Then, he spreads his arms, as if to say "Go ahead." This is your one chance Makima. ]
[Oh? Her brows raise, and far be it from her to not take advantage of this opportunity. Could it be... Warren is not so allergic to fun and whimsy?
The problem being that her water gun has floated so, so far off to the other side of the pool, bumping up against its corner uselessly. She'd have to get out, swim over, then shoot him. Half of the fun is being quick about it, and she purses her lips.
Instead, she just makes fingerguns just below where Warren stands, the side of the pool, and-]
[Water displaces and splashes! Up really high! Hopefully splashing the wizard! Thankfully, she has some mode of self-control (ha) and this is really all she accomplishes, not opting to blow a hole in the side of the pool or anything like that.]
[ Makima his pOOL. At first he thinks that she's legitimately trying to take the ground out from underneath him, but that's not what happens at all. The invisible force slams into the water and sends it spraying up at him...
[ The way she just sort of deflates does get a chuckle out of him. There's a sense of humor in there somewhere, even if it seems to mostly come out at other people's expense. ]

I’m going to assume that a demon that’s no more than an animal will be easily dealt with, as long as you have me to help you.
But I guess I should ask anyway: is “hellfire” exactly what it sounds like?
no subject
But yours? We'll have to see.
no subject
[Hm.]
You could act as bait and I just get the jump on them. That’s the power of teamwork, you know.
no subject
It’s not often that I get to be the distraction.
[ He’s the heavy-hitter, usually. In matters of clout and power both. ]

It'll be fun to try something different for a change.

Back to reading for you, then?

[ Says Warren West, fun police. ]
For the time being. Unless you have any objections.

Better luck next time.
