It's morning in Hell, again looking all the same as before. Alastor lazily sat up in bed looking like a disaster. There was a soft knock at the door. "Who is it?" He asked, fixing his hair.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKYyLOkkYy
It was morning again in Hell, though it looked exactly the same as always—blistering skies and charred ruins. Alastor sat up in bed, looking like a complete disaster. His usual neat appearance was a mess, his sharp suit wrinkled, and his hair was a tangled mess. He groaned softly, rubbing his eyes, the weight of another pointless day settling in.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm5kFV8Nvq
A soft knock at the door broke the silence.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFevFOVDnqL
"Who is it?" Alastor asked, his voice thick with fatigue as he tried to smooth his hair, though it didn't do much good.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIlzhlXA5Y
There was an answer, "It's Rosie, dear!"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOhCoTJGQs
"Oh, enter." He was still sitting on the bed half asleep with a hangover.
Rosie walked in, holding cannibal bacon and some pancakes that may or may not have been made by Lucifer himself, along with a glass of orange juice. "Hey, I heard what happened last night and how you might have a hangover, so I brought you water and made you breakfast."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJR0xZovJQ
A familiar voice called from the other side of the door. "It's Rosie, dear!"
Alastor, still slouched on the edge of the bed, squinted against the dull light and groaned, his head pounding from the hangover. "Enter," he muttered, not even bothering to fully sit up.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSqvUhfOMZ
The door creaked open, and Rosie stepped in, carrying a tray of food. On it was a pile of cannibal bacon and a stack of pancakes that looked a little too perfect, like they had been made by Lucifer himself. She also carried a glass of orange juice. "I heard what happened last night," she said, setting the tray down on the nightstand. "Figured you might need some water and a decent breakfast."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQjucgY2mT
"How much of last night did you hear about?" Alastor asked, slipping his monocle into place.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5m9fkgyUa
"All of it," Rosie replied with a smirk. "Lucifer's a good gossip. Don't worry, though—he only had good things to say about you." She set the breakfast down in front of him.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqI9QDEFDSw
Alastor picked up a piece of cannibal bacon and took a bite. After a moment, he sighed, rubbing his temple. "I'm never getting drunk again."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9FLiMXBmk
Rosie chuckled. "He found you quite endearing, Alastor. It was fine."
Alastor blushed slightly. "That isn't helping."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sTCZXDmQx
After breakfast and a bit of recovery, everyone had gone off to do their own thing. Rosie was on the couch in the lobby, scribbling in her gossip column for the local paper. Lucifer sat at the bar, nursing a whiskey, clearly trying to drown his own hangover. Meanwhile, Alastor was in the radio tower, doing a broadcast like a true professional, his usual sharpness back now that the worst of his hangover had passed.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tY03pvPeS
Alastor finished his broadcast and, with a snap, appeared in the lobby. Rosie looked up from her newspaper, smiling brightly. "Alastor! How are you, my friend?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUhXc6AoAM
He waved casually. "Quite well, just finished a broadcast. How about you?"
Rosie sighed, her pen flying across the page. "Could be better. So much to write, so little time."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mzhhY6L5s
"Panicking won't help," Alastor said with a smirk. "Need some help?" He snapped his fingers, and a shadow puppet appeared, dancing on her desk.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxvKRtROy7
"I'm not panicking! I'm just... power writing!" Rosie insisted, then nodded, convincing herself. "Yeah, power writing. But, help would be useful." She picked up the shadow puppet.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDnjM1A8LO
"Great!" Alastor said, and with a snap, the puppet started scribbling away. "Stressing never helps."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4aa42gm9h
"I'm not stressing," Rosie muttered, but her smirk said otherwise. "Lucifer is, though. Maybe you should cheer him up." She shot him a sly side-eye and went back to writing.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61YwzVo5Bi
Alastor gave a sly, simp-like smile before quickly glaring. "And how would I do that?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ8hK5qyVx
"By being nicer to him than you are to me," Rosie replied, then paused as her phone buzzed. "Oh? I just figured this out... how did I get a message already?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTG6yXMtqyH
Alastor shot a glare at the phone. "Well, you're not wrong... I suppose."
"Just go comfort him!" Rosie urged, glancing at her phone. "OH GOD, IT'S EDINA!!!" She stared at the notification, wide-eyed.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS0pK7DP1F
Alastor raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean 'mine'?" He snapped his fingers, sending out a burst of static, then softened. "Who's Edina?" He winked and nudged her.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFVukPX3Rq
"I mean he's yours," she said, smirking. "Go do whatever you did last night to make him so happy!" She quickly hid the phone. "Edina is a friend. A friend who confuses me."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTpwOKwRry
"A friend?" Alastor teased. "A friend who confuses you?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1Cg4RngPk
Rosie sighed, looking frustrated. "Yes. A friend who's confusing me about things I don't have time for."

252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkmiaxEjh7
"Nothing happened last night." He remembered the drunkenness. "Maybe something did happen, why don't you take a break and go talk to Edina? She could use your presence in more than one way."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpxpa4dm5b
"I know something happened. He looked happier than he has in years. Also, what do you mean by in more than one way?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcBjjGZvCt
"T-that's uh anyways, you should know, how many husbands have you had and then divorced? Maybe it's time to try something new or rather someone."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbHFUItr9c
"I've had..." She mumbled about random things. "About 8 husbands... well, what do you mean by that? Find someone new? Like whom?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hxJIze2eI
"Edina." He tilted his head. "You're closer to her than you are with any man."
"Edina is a woman though... I've never thought I've liked a woman, so I don't think so."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhgXlirzvO
"Well, what comes to your mind when you think of her?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyQtajiuw8
She pondered for a bit. "Well, many of the times we've gossiped or joked together. Mostly dinners together, most of which I cooked because she likes my cooking better than her own."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXr1z6QCDDK
"So basically, just going on dates?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKkpjXdnyi
"Dates? No! ... Oh, wow it really seems like it huh?" She questioned reality.
He smirked. "See? You can't deny it."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzV8Vz0Myb
She shrugged. "Oh well, I don't even think she'd consider being any more than good friends."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpJnxhoRiK
"Have you asked her if she's... interested in woman perhaps?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnlf1MywvR
"How would I even bring that up? OH! I could invite her to the hotel tonight! She'd love to meet you guys! Also, I think you should go comfort your pook- I mean, your king."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwEjQRUuVc
"That'd be a splendid idea! I'll cook some jambalaya!" He looked at Lucifer. "Fine I'll go comfort the king of Hell."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiANXuUybV
She kept writing. "Enjoy your time!"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkniWnQl6sb
Lucifer was sadly drinking at the bar, all alone. Alastor walked over to the bar. He spoke to Lucifer, "Hello drunken king!"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAmIN1URRI
He made an emo face. "Hey Alastor."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVMhQOxhED
"You're never fully dressed without a smile!" He booped Lucifer.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UJcitq0z3
Lucifer smiled slightly in return. "You're still trying to win that booping contest?" He booped Alastor back.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Y9vxvRmwp
"I will never give up." He booped him.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuWjMCzmbI
He booped Al. "Me neither."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihcfrjhpRe
He booped Lucifer. "Hmph..."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8Z21KdeW0
He booped back. "So, what's up with Rosie?" He sipped a glass of whiskey.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJszx3X9NC
He booped Lucifer again. "What about her?" He spawned a glass of whiskey for himself.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJpYWKglML
boops "Well, I heard her on the phone with this person named Edina and I swear that they're having an affair or something. Plus, she also seems stressed about writing." sip sip
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqPwbaQ7x9
boops she may not be as straight as she thought, just hoping she won't get her heart broken chugs the bottle.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwENvy9Kgg
boops "Well I-" A knock on the door interrupts the sentence.
Alastor answers the door Hello! Do you know where Rosie is?
She was sitting on the couch, writing quickly.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnV9bvm9Gg
"Rosie!" She walked past a bamboozled Alastor and over to Rosie.
Rosie's head shoots up to look at Edina "Edina! You're here!" She stood up excitedly.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPCMBV50p2
"Of course I am!" She hugged Rosie.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhwYUn1Zhl
"Well, I hoped to introduce you to Alastor and Lucifer and show you around the hotel."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTObVZNC8K5
"Alright." She did a gay hair flip. "You should show me your room, you have one here, right?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrak0TOEpY
"Ugh, you all are so annoying." Husk commented, drinking some booze.
Alastor looked at Husk. "What did you say?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIhL72u7Yo
"I said, you are annoying."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8GQHooePN
The two ignored Husk. "Yeah, I have one upstairs." Rosie pointed upstairs. "It's room 666."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbR7hV9PSM
Edina grabbed Rosie's hand. "Come along then show me the way."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPfzo5FOZI
She had a gay attack. "Oh... okay. Well, not many people live here yet, but it's quite pleasant that way." She dragged her upstairs.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfJoBxSPku
"That just means there's more space." She replied.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwHnmjrbUK
Yeah, and less people bugging me about their problems. Mostly because these people aren't my children. *STILL HAVING A MINI GAY ATTACK*
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7UpGQ2uWu
She held Rosie's hand tighter with a smirk. "Do they know how to do math? Because then they can solve their own damn problems."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6d2ZVXc8Bh
SHE HAD AN EVEN GAYER ATTACK. "Well, apparently my children are still very reliant on me."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRU4qTpsruH
"With someone like you that makes sense."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKmYPvBD6m
They finally got to the room. "Well, here it is."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt15Ts1NZ7
"Well, are we going to stand outside the door the whole day or what?"
Rosie opened the door. "Sorry, I just wanted to make sure you finished talking before I showed to you." Edina rushed into the room.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG9jrpQ6nI
"Oh. That was fast."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD12ib3miWh
"Come on in and give me a room tour!"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvVr8F0Ozk
"Well, in my room, I have the collect of the skulls of ex-husbands, my jewelry, and my dresses in the closet."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxWnOY1tJk
"Do you have your ex-husband's skull?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJuYplyged
"All 8 of them! I kept them as trophies in life and they stayed with me through the afterlife."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74J0VJLmmF
"You should use them as paper weights."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReaXTsoyUy
"Maybe I already do. Anyways, anything besides this, I have a bathroom and closet."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxK4mBnXLPE
"I thought the closet was your room." Gay hand gesture wink wink nudge nudge.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn0A0sIEXS
Rosie didn't get the reference. "Uhm... no? Why would I live in a closet?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTI0tjmhwU
Edina face palmed "It's a gay joke."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooVSgcMmph
"Oh, sorry, I don't really know much about gay references."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE90VLTA1o
"Maybe I could teach you."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUGbt4TJ7E
"Yeah, okay! I'd like to learn."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxVTyVyKG2
"Alright so if someone is in the closet it means they haven't come out in their sexual orientation or gender identity."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjL0vT2F2x
"Ohhhhh, so you were basically calling me gay."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQqs7ybzRL
"Now you get it!"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE89OGQfXOi
"Ah! Well, I've never really pondered my sexual identity."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zho5ULgTE
"Why not?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHXnNAdYkJ
"I just never bothered to. It's not really something I thought I'd have to do."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPbpXl7srw
"Well, you have all eternity in Hell to ponder it."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1xR8l11tw

252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEqag17eEo
Alastor gave Husk a bombastic side eye. "What a prissy kitty today."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYMhg0c0Yg
"DON'T CALL ME A KITTY."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmI49wdb4xs
"And what can you do about the hmm?" He grabbed some whiskey from the bar. "Kitty?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBrmqwjWsw
"I'll kick your ass." He frowned grumpily
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ3h4uQCBS
A chain appeared. "Really now?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc79ZywGbfy
"I hate you all so much." he responded.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ3WseeZ6C
"Good." He responded.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DZWIN3jUp
Lucifer entered the room. "What's going on?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbmE82R3q0
"Just teaching someone a little lesson." He tugged on the chain around Husk's neck.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LsYmk2JBg
"Oh... well, I'm going to just..." He snatches a booze bottle.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UeY0pecKQ
He grabbed the booze from Lucifer. "You've had enough your shortness."
"Are you gonna leave me alone now or what?" Husk asked.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNgZGWjmBy
He gave him a side-eye then made the chain disappear. "Of course, Husker."
He pouted drunkenly. "Give it baaaack."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvK20D6g2a
"Not until you sober up you royal alcoholic."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Gz61T5bvY
"I'm too sober right now, give it back."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMekDDK87w4
"The only alcoholic allowed in this hotel is Husker."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMpjwWpJVG
"Yeah!" Husk chimed in.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjAdoHDyv3
"Respect your elders and give me the booze!"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoUIXuHdvk
"No." Husk said.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovUyWhFguG
"Respect the height difference and no." Alastor refused. He tossed the booze to Husk. "You finish those up."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbtg44ecoF
"Whatever." He continued drinking booze.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH7pjdLZ4V
"Problem solved."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqTvPAnajc
"Uuuugh why do you have to be so nice and good at flirting, but then you're rude to me?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBYUbjQ8JP
"Because skill comes with height"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1spU68S9rF
He went back to mourning over his lost wife. "If only I was taller."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEupEhZcDbJ
"Maybe be taller." Husk interjected.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKMhO8P6IA
"Maybe be more sober and I'll listen to you." Lucifer replied.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuJws7aefi
"Maybe I'm too sober for this." Alastor spoke, then pulled out opium.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtv4iAJyWD
"PUT THAT SHIT AWAY." Husk yelled.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1d9YusayG
"GIVE ME SOME." Lucifer shouted.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFOZdZi7gX
"HELL NO THIS IS MINE." His eyes turned into radio dials.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3w7MO5lu9
"PLEEEEEASE AL."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmUzYGnTy4
"IF LIFE GIVES YOU LEMONS SNORT SOME COCAINE."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWAEGG6LWk
Lucifer summoned some cocaine. "Okay."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlLS5r8cFK
Alastor started smoking some opium and stole Lucifer's cocaine.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREIGFWebFO
''When life gives you lemons, burn life's house down with those lemons.'' Husk added.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsgasEQhVP
"You said it Husker."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LL3dRoFPh
''I DON'T NEED YOUR LEMONS, LIFE''
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JXNnFacCJ
Lucifer continued, "I'M TOO DEPRESSED FOR THIS." He stomped up to his room.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EOHEp30rv
"YOU'RE TOO SHORT FOR THIS I BELIEVE YOU MEAN."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIWd9lB45B
"YOU'RE TOO YOUNG TO HAVE AN OPINION ON MY PROBLEMS!"
"I'm too high to care."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYF0LxSw8kF
"Hey Alastor, maybe you should get your boyfriend." Husk smirked evilly.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgPSqN2eM0
"If he quit running from me, I would have one already." Alastor was too high on opium to stand.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8nRxfoJ8G
Lucifer appeared. "What did you sayyyyy?"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA9MZ2VpxV
Al blew a puff of opium. "Nothing."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLetWIiRVp
Lucifer inhaled the opium puff. "HAHAHAHHAAHAH!!!"
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZaGk1KWe7
"That's not enough to get high."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwieNFh8ha2
"Well, since all you weirdos are here do you know where Angel Dust is?" Husk asked.
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpCOjdMv4a
Alastor answered, "He's with that night butterfly Valentino."
252Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjiqvLiWnH
"Well, good luck with your opium, I'm going back to my duck workshop."
