Fela

— Fela's drunken parting words to Milo and Lola (determinant)

**Fela** is a demon in *Afterparty* who can be found at the Security booth on Bobolyne Park. In search of a VIP invitation to Satan's house party, Lola and Milo can choose to pursue him rather than Lynda Landon for his spare invite.

## Personality

Fela is a lonely and socially awkward demon, describing himself as in a "slow period, socially-speaking" and often talking to his phone when no one is on the other line. Fela is easily deceived, unquestioningly believing Milo and Lola should they tell them they're detectives. He is normally a hard worker, stating himself to be "employee of the month like every other week"..

## Appearance

Fela is a short demon with glowing light blue facial features. He wears a blue security uniform with a navy blue tie, a red-and-white ID clip, and a golden badge pinned to the front; a black belt; and blue ripped jeans, as well as a silver watch on his right arm.

## Plot

Upon discovering that they cannot enter Satan's house party without a VIP invitation to skip the line, Milo and Lola come across Fela's post asking for assistance in exchange for an invite:

> "Anybody wanna go to Satan's party tonight? One spare VIP ticket if you help me catch somebody! First come first serve!"
> - @fela\_nastrondschool

Should Milo and Lola choose to pursue him over Lynda, Sam drives them back to Bobolyne Park, where they find Fela on the phone with a coworker, Felicia, outside the Security station. Though he initially mistakes them for "test humans," Fela asks the two whether they were detectives in life (to which they can either lie or tell the truth) before bringing them up to date on the situation: pre-med students have been placing themselves in temporary comas in order to vacation in Hell, and Fela has been informed by Debbie in dispatch that there's one too many people in the area. After searching the school grounds, Fela has determined that the suspect must be in Feisty's; however, Fela suspects that they recognize his face at this point, and enlists Milo and Lola to help search "on the inside" as humans.

Upon their arrival at Feisty's, Fela explains the backstories he's pre-prepared for them, in which Milo and Lola are "Blasphemers from the Plain of Burning Sand come to try out [Feisty's] hot wings" while Fela is their deceased baby, donning a blue bonnet as a disguise. After setting a codeword, they enter the party, where Fela is immediately recognized by Botis and another demon. Fela leaves the investigation up to Milo and Lola while he waits outside; after they finish, they regroup with Fela and must tell him that the culprit is either Greg, Eliza, or Pete. Fela calls the Delinquency Department and has the suspect arrested before thanking the two and giving them permission to enter Satan's house party.

At the party, Fela calls out for Milo during his encounter with Wormhorn, causing him to snap back to reality. During their ensuing conversation, Fela will either reveal that he was fired from his job after choosing the wrong person or that Dean Botis had taken full credit for catching Greg and earned an undeserved bonus. After drunkenly ranting about how he was naïve to put trust in people, Fela wonders aloud where he'd parked his scooter as he leaves them behind.

If Milo and Lola chose to pursue Lynda instead of Fela, Wormhorn later mentions Fela, referring to him as a "poor little demon who needed help apprehending a dangerous homo sapien."

At Thrall City, if Milo didn't get Eliza's number, Fela can text Milo apologizing for his behavior at the party, to which Milo can either respond positively or negatively:

> Milooooo! Hos it goin? Sory for earlier. I was jus mad about m job. :( Nothing personal. Haha. Come back and welll hang!
>
>

Later on, Fela texts him again, to which Milo can also reply:

> Sum anciet Egypt God is doin SHOTS with Lukes Horn Sharpener, Azazel! It’s nutso hahaha your my friend this is fun
>
>

At the end of the game, if they chose to help him, Milo and Lola can choose to recruit Fela for their team for the drink-off with Satan. If they do, Fela will express concern over Satan's situation and choose not to participate in the beer pong game.

If Milo and Lola chose to defeat Satan in the game, Satan will send them along with their two teammates back to Earth. Three months later, Fela will appear during their phone call, and can mention that he enjoys Earth's cheeseburgers better than Hell's. If Milo and Lola chose to forfeit or lost to Satan and Fela was one of their teammates, he will join them at Feisty's three months later for either Lola or Milo's new job celebration.

## Relationships

* Milo and Lola - Fela is initially very trusting of the two and wants to become their friend, telling them about his lack of a social life and offering to get a drink with them after the mission. If Milo and Lola chose the wrong culprit and causes Fela to lose his job and get drunk, he feels deceived by the two and becomes disillusioned with the concept of friendship; however, he can later drunkenly apologize to them via text and try to make amends.
* Botis - Botis and Fela used to be close friends; Fela used to drive Botis to the airport while Botis would give his ex-wife free mammograms. They eventually grew apart for reasons unknown. If Greg was correctly jailed, Botis takes full credit for the capture, leaving Fela feeling betrayed.
* Felicia - Felicia is Fela's roommate who, according to Fela, still feels bad about eating his pants at some point. While on the phone prior to meeting Milo and Lola, Fela promises that he'll pick Felicia up as soon as he finds the culprit.
* Janie - Janie is a member of the school's Delinquency Department who Fela calls after Milo and Lola tell him their suspected culprit. Fela tells Janie to "say Hi to Addrammelech for me" before hanging up and remembering that he had left Janie for his podiatrist.
