"Besides setting up a circle with a gag? Not really..."

So he sets up a circle with a gag, because he's curious, and bothers Timothy to come over and finish it.

Which he does.

Fifteen minutes go by, then there's a demon.

"Hi! God, how do people do this normally, I feel like such an asshole. We were just curious what the strike had done to wait times to find a gagged demon. Can I get you any of magic potions for changing your appearance temporarily, magic trunks that are larger on the interior, a meet-and-greet with the dragons, a list of media recommendations from three dimensions you haven't heard of..."

"You have to offer stuff one at a time for a task," Cam says.

"He can't, like, nod at one he wants? I'm sorry," he says to the demon. "Can I say 'in exchange for your time' or do I also need to come up with a stupid task - how did you tolerate this for a century and a half -"

"I sprouted a tail. You can do for his time."

So he repeats all the offers with a 'for your time'.

He'll take the potion.

Cool! Potion. He sends him home. "Cam, what's his name - I'm sorry, it itches -"

"You're adorable." It takes him twelve minutes of forensics, and the demon's name is Twisp.

"I love you. He's not, like, a murderer on the hunt for people to hurt, is he -"

Rummage rummage. "...gives summoners unflattering mustaches and so on given an opening."

Giggle. "That's probably net positive, honestly, makes them more careful the next time."

Minor is pleased about the fifteen-minute wait time, that's long enough to make a point.

It gets news coverage. His viewership jumps.

Next video is about learning to fly! The dragons are better at it than him; there are many entertaining tumbles into the lake. 

But then he'll do a livestream taking questions about the strike.

Gagged summonses still got answered, how does he feel about that? This person summoned an ungagged demon and she WOULD. NOT. SHUT. UP. This commenter says that her workplace switched to angels and it slowed everything down a ton and was awful and demons should just behave. How long is the strike going to last, wait time isn't back to normal yet.

Demons who want to answer gagged summonses can do that! He doubts wait times will ever get back to normal, honestly, because every single other world doesn't gag demons and so this world is going to be stuck with the demons who are willing to put up with gags. As more and more worlds are taught summoning even demons willing to be gagged will usually get summoned elsewhere.

He's curious what that woman means by 'behave themselves'. Answer summons when they would prefer not to? Why should demons have to do that. 

She doesn't reply to him. Other people propose that behaving means showing up when called on as quickly as they're accustomed to. Do demons even have anything better to do? This person summoned an ungagged demon and the demon criticized the rest of the binding and it was fucking terrifying and they are never summoning a demon ever again.

Maybe the demon was trying to be helpful by pointing out how the person could do better and be safer. Do demons have better things to do than answering summons? Uh, yes. For example, living their lives - demons have engineering and medical schools, they can be designers and chefs, they develop new technologies, they do research, they write books, they design wings, they play sports. All of these things are often more appealing than showing up to be gagged. "Anyway, the demons still are taking summons, we're just not taking your summons."

People are curious about the designing wings thing. Don't demons just have wings. Why does Minor have them now, wasn't he putting that off. Also, all these other worlds should obviously be lower priority than theirs they had summoning first and built everything around it being available.

"Summoning's still available, it's gagging that is going to stop working so conveniently. Anyway, there's no priority system - daeva can't distinguish summons, except by wearing clothes that won't pass a gag. Even if it'd be fair for your world to go first, I can't change physics. Ungagged summons are going to be answered faster than gagged summons and both of them are probably going to see wait times creep up. I want to help reduce wait times by getting more demons to take summons; there are billions of demons and most of them never take any. Why? Because summons suck. If we make them better, more people'll take them and wait times will go back down. That's the only piece of this we can control.

 Most demons have wings to start out but they can still want different ones. Faster, or prettier, or a better match for the rest of their appearance...I got a set because I had been enjoying passing for human so people wouldn't call me 'it' but at this point lots of people recognize me, so I asked my brothers if they'd mind summoning an angel to size my wings up for me when it's time."

If summons suck so much why does he take them? Who's teaching the other worlds how to summon? Here's a gag design that passes clothes but prohibits speech.
