Hunson had invited Marceline and Princess Bubblegum to dinner that night. They ate in silence for a while. Marceline sucked the blood out of her raw steak and passed her vegetables to Bonnibel. Bonnie, who preferred her food to be cooked, gave Marceline her steak.
Hunson asked, "Bonnibel, how did you like the Nightosphere?"
"Some of it is pretty breath-taking," with her response, Marcy almost spat out her food in laughter, receiving a swift kick by Bubblegum under the table, "But I think I've seen enough to know that all kingdoms have their pros and cons."
"Interesting. Well, it was nice to meet you. I'm sure we will be seeing each other again soon by how fond my daughter is of you." He winked and nodded towards the grey bites along the girl's pink neck which Bubblegum immediately tried to cover up. Marceline blushed before scowling at her dad. "You too are an unlikely, yet cute pair. Marceline acts like a completely different person when she's around you, even when she's trying to look tough for her old man. I haven't seen her look this happy since her mom was alive."
"Whatever, Dad, it's nothing."
"Hmmm… If it's nothing, then I guess you wouldn't mind if I sucked your girlfriend's soul." He transformed into a huge soul-sucking monster that knocked over the table, reaching its tentacles towards Bonnibel. The souls of the less-fortunate hung in slimy green sacks below a mouth filled with razor-like canines as they voiced their discontentment with hollow moans.
"What the-?" Bonnie shuffled safely behind Marceline.
The vampire queen lunged at her dad, throwing him against the wall, "No one touches her" she growled as she turned into a giant black octopus, strangling Hunson until he shape-changed back to his usual demon appearance.
"See? I told you," Hunson Abadeer flashed a playful grin as he brushed off his suit, "I'm just wondering why you didn't tell me yourself?"
"I just wasn't sure how you'd take the news. You were always so happy whenever I dated a guy, always asking when we'd have kids and stuff." Tears welded in her eyes.
"Marcy, I was only happy that you were happy." He gave her a hug.
"Thanks, Daddy." Marceline was feeling emotionally drained, but most confrontations with her dad ended that way. She grabbed Bonnie's hand and they left the Nightosphere.
Back home, Marceline fell onto the couch and motioned for Bubblegum to sit down. Marcy laid her head in her princess' lap and looked up at her. Bonnie started playing with her lengthy ebony locks.
"I'm glad my dad likes you."
"Uh I'm glad you like me, otherwise he would've sucked out my soul." The pink girl chuckled. "He did give me an idea for the safety of my citizens though, what if they were each put in a containment unit held within a giant Gumball Guardian?"
"I don't know, Bon Bon. Let's stick to one adventure at a time." Marceline leaned up and kissed her lover's lips. "Mmmm. You taste so good, I may have to suck your sweet soul."
