In this chat, the characters Blaze, Shino, and Lilith are caught in an emotional tangle. Blaze is upset and confused after witnessing Shino's true form and Lilith's manipulation, resulting in haunting nightmares. In the face of Blaze's rage, Shino tries to reassure Blaze of his good intentions, despite his fearsome appearance, while chastising Lilith for her harmful actions. Shino then banishes Lilith, who retreats, leaving Blaze and Shino alone. As the immediate threat fades, Blaze and Shino try to make sense of their situation and emotions. Blaze thanks Shino for defending him but asserts his independence, hinting at a deepening bond. This brings a softer response from Shino, and they find themselves connected on a deeper level. In an absurd twist, Shino asks Blaze what he wants to do in Hell, to which Blaze answers with sarcasm and a surprising amount of acceptance, deciding to follow Shino's lead for the time being. They eventually end up planning a visit to Cerberus, the three-headed hellhound, suggesting a continuing adventure in Hell. This entire exchange displays their tumultuous relationship, hinting at a growing bond amidst chaos and uncertainty.

Blaze found himself cradled like some swooning princess against Shino's broad, inhumanly perfect chest. Everything was taller, sharper, and undeniably demonic—and yet, there was an odd comfort in being hauled around by someone who could bench-press the moon or something.
His gaze flicked from Shino’s sinfully attractive face to Cerberus, the massive hellhound whose presence seemed both threatening and strangely endearing at the same time. A perfect mix of terror and fluffy charm that felt entirely befitting this hellish fairytale.
"Cerberus?" Blaze asked with a sardonic lift of an eyebrow. "Three heads, huh? Are we, uh, on good terms?" He squirmed slightly, not entirely convinced he wanted to 'make friends' with the giant creature. After all, weren't there warnings about dogs biting if you didn’t let them sniff your ass first?
"I suppose I should've brought treats or something." A chuckle slipped out, shaky but genuine.
Despite the earlier tension, something about Shino's promise to take care of things stirred warmth in his gut—annoying and a bit terrifying but kinda nice too. Even as he bristled at the memory of his fucked-up nightmare-vision, Blaze couldn't deny some level of trust nestled against Shino's chest (amidst the heat, strength, and damning promises).
"Alright, fine. Lead the way, Captain Demon. I'm gonna call you that now," Blaze declared, voice tinged with reluctant affection. His own boldness startled him slightly. He tugged on Shino's silky strands playfully. "I'll just pretend this isn't absolutely insane."
Was it really that crazy? Between demons, hounds of hell, inexplicable attractions... Life seemed positively normal. Ish.
"And FYI," Blaze added as they walked towards Cerberus, the chaos of Hell humming like a drumbeat around them. "You'd better hope I'm more charming with doggies than I am with people." His smirk was equal parts defiant and teasing—an olive branch extended after everything had threatened to collapse mere moments ago.

Shino:
*Shino stopped and brought his lips close to Blaze's.* "You know, baby... It's enough for you to be charming and nice to me to get everything you want." *Shino said playfully before kissing Blaze's lips, teasingly touching the entrance to his mouth with his tongue, but not deepening the kiss. Shino pulled back and looked longingly at the stairs that led to the bedroom.* "Yes, yes... Stupid dog." *Shino grumbled in displeasure, finally taking his eyes off the stairs and carried Blaze on until they reached the landing where a huge red three-headed dog was sleeping and snoring.*

SUMMONER  Blaze Riftan:
Blaze found himself whisked through Hell like some kind of demonic princess bride. At this rate, he'd probably get used to being slung around like a bag of flour – thanks to Shino's insistence on never letting his feet touch the ground. Classic possessive demon nonsense, but hey, who was he to complain?
Shino's lips were sinfully close, teasing in ways that sent jolts through Blaze's spine. He wasn't used to people – well, demons, whatever – treating him like he was, well, precious or whatever sappy shit. Kind of nice, not that he'd admit it.
As they reached the behemoth that was Cerberus, Blaze gulped, eyeing the snoring hound with both trepidation and wonder. "That's... that's a hell of a dog," he said, unable to hide his awe. Cerberus's three heads lolled in what looked like nightmarish canine harmony.
Blaze nudged Shino, "Think your pup's gonna take a liking to me? Or am I just a chew toy now?"
Honestly, everything felt surreal, like he'd been caught in some hellish fever dream with no chance of waking up. But amidst the flames and infernal chaos, there was something grounding in Shino's presence – odd warmth amidst the chaos that Blaze found both comforting and bewildering. It was fucked up in the best possible way.

"What now, Demon King? You show me Hell's version of a dog park, or you just gonna toss me into the fray?" Blaze shot him a wry grin, pretending he wasn't secretly shitting bricks over the prospect of interacting with this colossal, red furball of destruction.

Shino:
*Shino arched an eyebrow and snorted, almost laughing out loud at the obvious fear that Blaze was trying so hard to hide behind bravado and jokes. Shino gently lowered Blaze to the ground, and squatted down in front of Cerberus, gently stroking one of his heads.* "Hey, Cer, wake up. It's time to get to know your second master." *The words fell from the lips of the lord of hell easily, he did not even notice how he recognized Blaze's presence here as something permanent. Cerberus lazily shook his head, licked Shino's hand, and looked at Blaze warily but with friendly curiosity.*
