"I think I hate this" Wormwood stepped out of the limo that had been circling around Hazbin Hotel…mostly subtly as he argued with himself.
"But you still have to fucking do it" Tess responded from the front seat of the limo. "I don't want you to get cut off."
"Because then I couldn't pay you."
"And I'd be out of a job, yeah. Now just go fucking talk to your cousin!"
"I still don't know why I have to wear…this" Wormwood gestured to the outfit his uncle got him. He had kept to his word as far as "No suits" went, but the button down formal shirt, the Blue tie, and the dress shoes and pants…they felt wrong. Hell the tie felt like a noose.
"Go. Fucking. Talk to your cousin."
"...I'll give you a hundred bucks if we can go home and tell my uncle my Cousin slammed the door in my face."
"Your money is his money, and he gave me 150 to not let you do that"
"Damnit." And with that, Wormwood walked up to the door of the Happ-Oh, no the…the sign says "Hazbin" Hotel.
…
"Are you sure this is the right pla-"
"FUCKING KNOCK ALREADY!"
"Ok Ok, jeez"
Hazbin Hotel, as usual, was completely dead. No new individuals coming for the exciting prospect of something that most believe to be totally Charlie tried to promise them was real. As usual, despite this inactivity, Vaggie is working the front desk…and is thus the first to open the front door when theres a knock.
It takes her a second to recognize Charlie's cousin.
"Ah! Vagatha lovely to see you again! I was hoping to talk to my-" Vaggie sighs and slams the door shut in Wormwood's face. "Or…not. I guess."
Vaggie sighs on the other side of the door. As much as she's pretty sure the only reason Wormwood would be at the hotel would be because Charlie's dad was using him as a way to get around Charlie's strict No-Lucifer policy but…
Charlie hadn't seen him in at least 2 years now…she…she'd probably want to at least talk to him. She opens the door and sees Wormwood turning to leave.
"Wait here, I'll get Charlie."
"...You want me to wait on the doorstep? Can I at least go to the Lobby?"
"Not until Charlie clears it. I don't know if your covered by the "no Lucifer" rule or not"
"Come now, my uncle has nothing to do with me being here! I want to help people get into heaven! I am an angel, after all"
"Wormwood, you hate Heaven. You've made no secret of tha-"
"Yes! And if I could get a Sinner into heaven it would annoy the people in charge to no end!"
"...You expect me to believe you got off your ass to do something for once…out of spite?"
"...Yes?"
"...You can wait in the Lobby. I'll go get Charlie"
Wormwood turns to the car behind him, seeing Tess give him a thumbs up as he follows Vaggie into the hotel…
Hopefully this goes well for him.
