Episode 8

"Home Economics" is the eigth chapter of the Demons Can't Be Pretty webcomic series.

Summary
"Demons do not die. Hands and horns, eyes and blood, even the heart gets recreated in the healing process. The only wound that a demon cannot recover from is a wound from an angel."

Satan is in class listening to his teacher. While his teacher is coughing and hacking up blood, Satan is the only one worried that his teacher might die, and thinks his teacher should go to the infirmary. No one else in his class seems to care, including Beelzebub. After Satan's teacher leaves class, he thinks to himself about how to deliver the letter Haru wrote to Moloch. Satan has the sudden idea to pretend to go to the bathroom, and then visit the classroom next door to deliver the letter. Satan is stopped in his tracks by a sudden attack, which narrowly misses him, from the class monitor; he warns Satan to go to the bathroom only during breaks.

In his home economics class, Satan is stressed over how he still hasn't managed to deliver the letter. It is his last class of the day, and he wants to hurry and leave, but he is worried about the class monitor getting in his way again. Satan looks outside the window, and sees Haru and Moloch's P.E. classes getting ready to play dodgeball. Satan panicks, and frantically wracks his brain for another plan. He decides to make scones, tie the letter to a scone, and throw it at Moloch. Moloch gets hit in the head by the scone, and he looks up to see Satan motioning to him/indicating that the letter is from Haru. Moloch seemingly nods, and Satan celebrates having delivered the letter. Satan is excited to get back to baking.

He overhears someone saying his scones are delicious. Satan looks toward the source of the voice, and sees that it is the home economics teacher. Satan explains how he mixed in blood powder to make the scones taste more sour. He is embarassed, but proud of himself. Satan almost does not catch the home economics teacher calling him a "lowly hell dweller". Satan is bewildered upon hearing this, but is shocked to see that his home economics teacher has now grown wings. Not just any wings, but white, feathery angel wings. The home economics teacher admits to being "caught", as her left eye turns blue.
