Twenty o’clock on a crisp march evening was neither the hour nor the weather one would assign to dramatic, momentous confrontations, so when the doors to his office were politely opened with no ominous flash of lightning, it took Dante a second to recognize his visitor as Vergil.
“Oh, uh— hey,” Dante called out awkwardly as his brother stepped in, along with a gust of cool air. “Nice whatsit.”
Vergil didn’t react, but he did start to— unstrap? dismantle?— his whatsit. It looked like a weird fusion of shield, armor and carapace, bulking up his entire left side in a sort of silver-white… conch. It had the feel of a devil arm, and even made weird little sounds like the chatty kind of arm, but it also looked impressively useless in a fight.
It suddenly hit Dante that his shit brother had just strolled into his shop, armed, like he owned the place. Should he… should he be mad about this? Should he pull his feet off his desk?
“You here to fight?” he asked, less challenging and more curious than he’d meant to. “Is that, like, a magical gauntlet you’re throwing?”
“I’d rather not,” Vergil said, dryly. Bits and pieces of the whatsit snapped loose and opened up like an elaborate anime mecha transformation, but did absolutely nothing otherwise; then Vergil knelt gingerly by the couch and, with a heave of the opposite shoulder, dumped a huge pastel-pink duffel bag on the floor.
It was lined in plastic and emblazoned with the effigy of that most dreaded of demons: Hello Kitty.

Do you ever just think about how Griffon, Shadow, and Nightmare are also technically part of Vergil and this implies that Vergil is also part-bird, part-cat, and part-sentient-pile-of-tar
Excellent job everyone

So you can have it.

“Make haste, Dante.” Warm-up before work!
[during a crisis] vergil devil may cry would never do this to me. he would do much, much worse
to himself
a little verv for valentines day
I still think about Vergil a LOT
Vergil is so fucking funny.
He's like: I don't use guns they're distasteful and for unrefined idiots, I always face my enemies head on in Honorable Combat.
[Proceeds to shoot Summoned Swords at them]
Today's fun little headcanon is that [V]ergil was raised on hand-kissing as the respectful and appropriate way to greet a lady and he doesn't realize people don't do that anymore/thinks modern greetings are weird.
So apparently I just now learned that Gilver got retconned and is now just a failed Nelo Angelo clone, which gives me an idea:
Capcom may have said that Gilver isn’t Vergil anymore…
But that doesn’t mean Dante and the rest of DMC knows that.
So now imagine the DMC crew lightly making fun of Vergil and constantly bringing up the Gilver incident, and whenever Vergil rightfully gets defensive and says “THAT WASN’T ME!”, they’re all just like “Suuure Verg”
Gliver comes back and gets caught dancing at the strip club and Vergil is horribly embarrassed when this happens:
Nico: so, Nero slaps him on the back what was your dad doin’ drunk at the strip club last night??? Nero: WHAT?!? Vergil: i was not at a strip club, i assure you!!! Trish: right, and you, Dante, and i are fully human. Dante: snickering shorty got them apple bottom jeans, boots with the fur -- Vergil: SILENCE ALL OF YOU
OHMYGOD I’M WHEEZING
Gilver shows up in the exact same room as Vergil and everyone else and everyone thinks he split himself with Yamato again
"The plot of the game somehow revolves around Vergil, as it can, with complete accuracy, be described as: Vergil hires Vergil's brother and Vergil's son to fight and defeat Vergil so that Vergil and Vergil can fuse and become Vergil."
this is by far my favorite description of DMC5 ever.
It's Vergil's game and everyone else is just living in it.
