No “psychology” but this is Virgil using psychology (Maslow’s Hierarchy) to accidentally discover the reason the vampires are struggling.
This is also why anyone that says “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” can go fuck themselves.

I think Virgil's all comes down to: Safe. Virgil wants him and the people he cares about to be safe.
If he was immortal, Lucifer would never lose him. He's "The Devil" than Lucifer too, as if HE was God, then he could make them safe.
He and The Chairman have a little more in common than he thinks.
You want to know the most successful bit of anti-Nazi propaganda? This scene is Spaceballs is a direct reference.
So successful people STILL think it was true.
"Hitler has only got one ball,
Göring has two but very small,
Himmler is rather sim'lar,
But poor old Goebbels has no balls at all"

It's a cliché, but it was too funny not to do. (Don't worry, it's a misunderstanding... Sort of).

This is also why societal security nets are essential and should not be left to capricious entities like politicians and religions.
Food, water, shelter, and security should be basic rights for anyone within a society.
We are not capable, psychologically, of actualization without them.

After a trip home, Talia resumes her road trip. First stop… her newest client (and newest crush.)
A movie poster for “HELL IS WORK” a hand with white painted fingernails holding a shiny apple. Reflected in the apple is a silhouette of a businessman’s shadow with demon horns in the background there is a graph of financial decline over a burning silhouette of the Cleveland skyline. The tagline at the bottom says “HELL IS EMPTY AND ALL THE DEMONS ARE IN POLO SHIRTS”
At the top is the text “Virgil Mora burns in Hell. It’s a pretty good job.” On a background of red and orange flame, a black and white silhouette with of a man with a suit and tie sitting at a shiny marble table that covers the entire lower half of the poster. A white silhouette of an angel with wings spread is standing behind them. In front of them is the title, glowing yellow, “Hell Is Work.” In the reflection on the table is the title reversed, the angel is in yellow not white and has a dripping halo. The businessman is reflected in red and has horns. At the bottom is the words “A novel by Zed Prospero”
A movie poster, at the top is the title “Hell Is Work” and underneath it a tag line “The Devil is in the details” The background is red with a light red graph showing a plummeting arrow representing a failing business. In the foreground is a three pronged Devil’s pitchfork with a halo around the central tine. Sitting on the curved crook of the right tine, nonchalant, with one arm wrapped around the tine is a black silhouette of a man wearing a suit and tie. His legs dangle casually above a field of flame. On the curved crook of the left tine, staring at the other man, is a white figure of a man with wings spread, casually playing footsie with the other man. At the bottom is the words “A novel by Zed Prospero”
At the top is the title text “Good Boys Don’t Howl” underneath that is the release date “April 28th, 2025” On a background of a brick wall lit with the colors of the bisexual pride flag is the shadow of a howling werewolf and a rain of red feathers. Over the shadow is a neon mouth with red lips and white vampire fangs and a blue and purple hand with a raised index finger in a shushing gesture. Below that is a tagline: “pop goes the werewolf” At the bottom of the image are four blocks of text: “Bisexual”, “Polyamorous”, “Sweet & Spicy”, and “Kinky as fuck”
I was going through all my old files for #PosterPit, and I'm really proud of the stuff I've done for that event.
Maybe I should do cover commissions? I don't know.

Well, I hope the medicine is helping!
As someone that had a kidney stone recently, they really suck, but if that's it he's likely to pass it soon, at least.

I’m glad to hear it wasn’t anything more serious!
Gandalf had a similar scare, and they had me switch his food for urinary tract health. It’s fairly common for older male cats.
Gandalf never had problems after I switched to this. Your vet would know best, but something to ask maybe.

Anything helps!

One of my most gimmicky scenes is actually kind of emotional, as when Virgil goes to get his expense report approved, Duke Berith is trying to help the family.
The possessed woman (20-ish) is closeted, and her mother is religious zealot.

Continuing on the scene where Helena gets invited to the chapel roof for a ritual.
The armor mentioned is a combination of physical armor enhanced with light magic. Each guardian/gargoyle has their own favorite color.
I do love to end the snippets with a stinger. 🤣

He doesn't quite realize what a mess he's making for the Helldesk when he summons his car.
It's not created by magic. They boost one for him. 🤣
