Child MC 10: Sweetest Child
Prompt: Imagine child MC calling Mephistopheles ‘Mr Mistoffelees’ from Cats Broadway play, and he’s just like, “It’s Mephistopheles!” And it kinda became a running gag!
Gender: gn!child!Reader
A/N: Platonic.
“Hi, Mr. Mistoffelees,” MC grins and waves at the noble demon.
“Mistoffelees?” He turns around and looks down, “Are you referring to me, child?”
“Yes, Mr. Mistoffelees.”
He sighs heavily and shakes his head, “Mephistopheles, child. My name is Mephistopheles.”
“Mistoffelees!” They innocently nod.
“No. Repeat after me. Mep-“
“Mep-“
“Histo-“
“Histo-“
“Pheles.”
“Pheles.”
“There you are. Mephistopheles.”
“Mistoffelees!” They exclaim with a smile.
“No. No. No. Let’s try again,” he crouches to their level. “Meh-phisto-feles.”
“Meh-phisto-feles. Mistoffelees!”
“Child, are you intentionally irritating me?” The demon asks, agitated. “Mestoffelees is a character in a play called Cats. The show belongs to your realm.”
“Cats? Did someone say cats?” Satan spawns out of nowhere. “Where?”
“Satan,” MC tugs on his jacket, “Mr. Mistoffelees say I’m not saying name right.”
“My name is Mephistopheles! Mistoffelees is a character in Cats,” his patience is wearing thin, but he doesn’t want to lash out at a child.
“A play…about cats?” Satan takes out his D.D.D. and searches the play. As soon as he sees Mistoffelees’s picture, he chuckles. Now, he won’t be able to get the image of Mephistopheles dressed like Mistoffelees out of his head.
