Heheh! What a fitting name for someone with the constitution of wet paper.
[As for Beelezebub... Lobelia hums thoughtfully.]
If I had to name a particular breed, you most strongly resemble a Doberman. They're known for being strong, trustworthy, straightforward animals... and with as much energy as they expend, they do require quite a bit of food.
Heh, try not to misunderstand me! You seem to think I'm the one who needs to be prudent, but if you air your grievances so openly, you'll be the one paying the price for it.

And looks at Lobelia.
Dryly:] I don't see it.

[Hm. Pondering.]
I think I get it. We call one of the angels "Chihuahua". He doesn't shut up, and shakes all over when he's scared. He's scared most of the time.
Why am I a little dog, though?

I do like dogs. Even Nona's dog. They're loyal, and good to exercise with.
I don't know how I feel about you calling me an animal, though.

[Lobelia tips his head to one side, curious, but he's not so lacking in self-awareness that he hasn't a clue why Beelzebub feels as he does.]
Does it strike a chord? Hit a little too close to home? Or do you suspect my nickname is borne of some ill intent?
no subject
You tease people constantly. It could get you in trouble if you're not careful.
But I think you know that much.
no subject
[Genuine question! For what it's worth, Lobelia doesn't seem bothered by the prospect of that.]
If you feel so strongly, why don't you do something about it?
no subject
[He already told Lobelia not to provoke him, but he clearly doesn't seem to care.]
Are you bored or something?

[Now who's threatening who? His eyes visibly show annoyance, but the stoic expression remains unbudging.]
I don't have time for this. If all you're here for is to prod at me, you can go now. I have better things to eat than you.
no subject
[But that said? Lobelia lifts his hands as if to throw in the flag. No more digs from him!]
Still, correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems you have nothing but time to spare... just like myself. What has you in such a rush?
no subject
[But that obvious note aside.]
I also told Overhaul I would clean up after myself. Otherwise, they might not be able to restock for everyone.
no subject
[Why does Lobelia sound so disappointed by this fact?]
Heheh! Cher chiot, I can't imagine they were serious. If our captors wanted to starve us all, they had many opportunities to do so already!
no subject
I'm not taking the chance for starving, anyway.
[what does beel even count as "starving"]
no subject
[...Shall we rip you open and find out?]
Are you always so well-behaved in situations like this?
no subject
[Just giving him a tired, flat look.]
Were you expecting something different?
