[Oh, it's the bathroom guy, standing up like a little bamboo stalk in the tub.
He regards the little man for a moment, taking in his scent with a slight crease of his brow, but no other change in an otherwise stony expression or borderline monotone cadence.]
Mn. I've been hungry. [Said as though that's an appropriate answer to the question, before briefly tilting his head.]
You can tell without me saying it, huh? That's impressive.
I am the Conquerer of Demons. I have been able to recognize their stench for thousands of years, now.
[ Still, he does not move in a manner that would suggest that he'll try to attack or anything like that, if only because Xiao does not want to give into the demands of their captors. ]
Are you going to do something to satiate your hunger?
[He's pretty sure testing that limit would be something that could get very out of hand, very fast. But there was a time and place for that.
His brows raise slightly at the question.]
Require? Mm. I don't know that I require anything. I just eat, and I prefer it to be good.
I'm in the mood for a few black tapir steaks. Maybe a couple dozen vampire bat sandwiches as a snack. But they don't have those at the buffet. So I can do without.
[His stomach growls once again, the redhead frowning with a hand tightening against his shirt.]
...It's probably better not to talk about it, little conqueror guy. I want to get my run in first.
[ He listens to this, something about "vampire bats"? What. He certainly doesn't remember seeing any vampires at the buffet. This explains why Beel is hungry, clearly. ]

[He tucks his hands into his pockets, no change in his posture to show he's intimidated.]
I already went out for a night run to the buffet. I probably could have gone again. But I like to take a run before my actual breakfast.
no subject
Hmph. Your appetite has no limits, then.
[ ... ]
What sustenance do you require.

Fine. Go get your run in and feed yourself.
[ He folds his arms over his chest. ]
And my name is Xiao.

[He just nods, a firm gesture of understanding. Weird name, but he's heard worse.
He grabs for his jacket, tying it around his waist.]
You don't need to sleep in the bathtub.
no subject
Hm. What makes you say that?
no subject
It looks uncomfortable.
I could be wrong. My brother sleeps like that, in the tub. But you don't smell like the ocean.
