Ezra tilts his head in puzzlement, before he picks up the pencil and starts drawing. "Do demons not usually do much art?"

He sketches out patterns of lines and circles that can be found in various parts of Lothal, although he doesn't try to do the stylized animals. Just the abstract bits he remembers.

"Oh, no, it's really not done. There's a lot of reasons, probably." Vulnerability, for sure - it's dangerous to put yourself out there in front of demons, and art necessarily involves doing that. Plus, Michael just...doesn't think any of them really know how to be creative?

He leans forward, watching Ezra sketch. "I had to work for thousands of years before I got important enough to be able to squeeze some in. And even then, I had to pretend it wasn't for that." The Good Place was very fun to design! He got a lot of stuff in under the guise of "it's for an elaborate torture scheme", honestly.

He pauses, and glances up. "So there's definitely some nice things about being here, for you, huh?"

Michael shrugs. This place may not be bad by his standards, at least not all of the time, but he's not sure he'd go quite that far. "I haven't lived among other demons for a few centuries. I was actually doing alright, back at home. Mostly just me and my friends, and a bunch of other humans."

[Well now he feels like he's stuck his foot in it, and winces.]

Sorry, shouldn't have assumed.
