That was absolutely phenomenonal writing! Loved that Beelzebub likes his tea strong, no sugar lol. Seems like a man (sorry meant demon) of taste haha, one simply cannot beat a nice strong cuppa, actually drinking a cup of earl grey right now perhaps I should have had a mug of hot milk and honey instead though as its gone past midnight here. Agree with what you wrote "caffeine plays havoc with sleep", for sure.
Its very well written, very deep and I feel on second, third plus read throughs one would discover more each time, for me I find under the veneer of a simple comedic adventure story there's a deeper learning tale similar to the sufi teaching tales, yours is about what is true happiness?
Basically a person may think that they want wealth, property etc but their own mindset and inner thoughts may cause them to lose everything due to feelings of unworthiness. So it comes back to being happy with what we have and training ones mind to be receptive to positive change. Sometimes we can be our own worst enemy I guess.
Or...I'm reading way to much into it, either way it's a gripping yarn, well written, kept me hooked on every word.
Never imagined the great Doktor Snake vaping of all things haha.
Thank you. Beelzebub, of course, is the wise one. Wisdom comes from the most unexpected places. In this case an arch demon. Naturally Mr B had noticed that God was a bit lazy in his creation. Just like software companies he couldn't be bothered writing up a user manual for the human machine - to be given out at birth. Thus our hapless humans are typically far from happy, cause wars and generally aren't in control of themselves. Mr B saw that humans are emotionally driven and this causes all sorts of problems, including unhappiness and dissatisfaction. Yet all they need to do to begin with is to stop internal dialog. If they don't do that, the human is an infernal machine. So against his better judgement the arch demon felt he should commission the writing of a user manual for the human machine.
