He held the hug, ignoring the bone cracking power, for a moment, before stepping back. "I think part of the problem is that your mother sees herself in you. So, my thought to help that, if she won't be reasonable, is to 'promote' you. It will be the improved balor, if you want. Or you can become a succubus, without actually losing anything but some of your volume, though you are good enough a caster to gain it back if you wanted it. But first, we are going to sit down, all three of us, though I will just be there to ensure it is bloodless and ensure that there is no fallout between you two."<br/><br/>He paused, aware that he was talking to a demon about trusting her mother, who most demons either fled from, killed, or raped within minutes of being born. "You two will need each other. Not asking you two to get along like your other mothers, but at least try to talk to each other. Please? For your dear, old, retarded dad? I will back your choice, regardless of what it is."
