Ooh. I just found my young Belphagor:
Isn’t he sweet? Of course, he should have dark brown eyes, and young Belphagor had no tattoos, until…oh, right. You have to read the second trilogy to find that out. Sorry for the horrible tease. (notsorry)
To make up for it, here’s a brief excerpt from young Belphagor’s introduction to the world of Man:
“His skin is as smooth as a girl’s.” The angel watched him from the low light through the sheer-curtained window.
So that was how it was. On Earth as it is in Heaven. He had paid for his supper in Raqia in much the same way on more than one occasion. Belphagor gave them a winsome smile. He was not above playing whatever part was required to the hilt.

Hmm… with a title like “Saturday Evening Post” I was thinking perhaps you had found young Belphagor in a Norman Rockwell painting lol!
I love the “On Earth as it is in Heaven” part. It refers to more than just “Thy will be done.”
What, you don’t see the Rockwellesque look of it? ;) I just started to write “Saturday post” and then that popped into my head so I couldn’t resist. Oh, yes, there’s a “kingdom come” in there somewhere isn’t there? :)
