a step by step guide for your viewing pleasure:

1. there will be so much blood, and it will be ugly and horrible and culling.

(to become a demon is a simple act—you must bargain with the devil himself and lose.)

3. there will be a bargain you cannot refuse.

(don't you know? devil's in the details, darling.)
