"Guys I know this might be a difficult decision but I think we could all benefit from extending some compassion," Charlie says to the group as Voe stands just inside the entrance

"Uh…why would we extend compassion ta her?" Angel asks "Just a question,"

"Because, she's a sinner, just like you!"

Angel looks up from his phone, he shrugs "I don't know, Lucifer whatdya think?"

Lucifer clears his throat "Well I for one agree that all sinners should be welcome, but I'm not so sure about..ahem cunts,"

Voe squints at him, but keeps her mouth shut. Only tightening the grip on her wrist

"Dad!" Charlie slaps his arm

"Maybe we should take it to a secret vote," Angel sits up

Charlie gets excited "Oooh!"

"Or maybe we should stop wasting time," Alastor appeared behind them, stepping up into the parlor

Lucifer mumbles "Who made you facility manager?"

The demon turns to the angel "Your daughter," and dusts off his sleeves "Whoever thinks that we should let the pitiful doe stay here, raise your hand," Charlie, Vaggie, Angel, and Alastor raise their hands "Now whoever does not,"

Lucifer, Cherri Bomb, Niffty, and Husk raise their hands

"Wait a minute…are there eight of us? Holy shit!" Cherri cracks up at the situation

"I don't know what's happening!" Niffty interjects "But I raised my hand!"

Vaggie puts her hands on her hips "Maybe the person that wants to stay here should convince one of us to change their mind," she looks at Voe "You've been awfully quiet,"

"My mouth has gotten me in a lot of trouble today,"

"Well, let it get you out of trouble," she crosses her arms "Why should we let you stay here?"

"Speech!" Cherri yells

Angel slaps her arm "Shut up bitch! Ya voted against her!" he smiles

"I know! Change my mind! Or don't!"

Voe blows out some air and puts her hands behind her back, rocking on her feet. "Can everyone…stop looking at me,"

"Why?" Charlie asks

"I thought you liked attention," Alastor added smugly

She looks everywhere but at them "Because….if you look at me I'm gonna cry," she answers honestly

"Okay, everybody turn around," Charlie orders them, and they do

"Um…if I'm being honest you probably shouldn't let me stay,"

"Ah, the old switcheroo. Reverse psychology," Cherri adds

"Shut up bitch," Angel says and they laugh

Voe waits for them to finish. "You shouldn't let me stay because I've been unkind, rude, and deceitful." she pauses and takes her time continuing "I know that in my mind my actions made sense, but I have to remember that not everyone knows why I do the things I do. But I think that if you do let me stay, it says more about you than me. In a good way," she adds "It tells me that you are kind and forgiving. Not petty and unjust, and I guess people with those traits are people I should be around. I mean, that's Charlie's whole dream for the Hotel in the first place, right? If I stay here and I spend my time around people like you, who were willing to let a person who lied to them for months stay, smothering me with goodness," she laughs a little, a tear rolling down her cheek "Imagine what I could be," Tears start rolling down her eyes and her words come out as sobs "I'm finished now," she tells them. Voe looks down to avoid them seeing her cry and it's complete silence when they turn around.

Charlie breaks the silence "Okay, so who's in favor of letting her stay now?"

She, Vaggie, Angel, and Alastor raise their hands once more. Voe hangs her head in shame at not being able to convince anyone to change their minds when she hears Lucifer's voice

"Damn it," he runs his hand through his hair and then raises it. Voe's head shoots up and she stares at him in disbelief. He looks back at her and shrugs "I just wanna give you a chance,"

"Yay!" Charlie comes to hug her as her tears fall on Charlie's shirt

Voe keeps eye contact with Lucifer Thank you, she mouths and he nods back.

Alastor had taken it upon himself to be the one to walk her to her room, even though it was the same room she had been in before. She was wiping the tears off her face and walking behind him when he spoke.

"That was quite an…interesting display, my dear,"

Voe scoffs "Whatever,"

He looks back at her and raises a brow, continuing on

"You raised your hand for me to stay," she teases

"Aren't you supposed to be working on being a good person and not gloating? You're not here because of me, you're here because of him." he scoffs "And I hate him, but if those tears were real, then I suppose you owe him an apology,"

She hangs her head down "I just thought it was interesting that you wanted me to stay,"

"Hmm, probably to see the stupid look on your face. How is it with the Vees by the way?"

She grimaces "I don't wanna talk about it,"

"Hmm then maybe don't gloat about it,"

"I'm not,"

"You do realize, that we're not friends. I don't like you,"

She rolls her eyes "That's why I was surprised you voted for me to stay,"

"Hmm, here to get more information out of me?"

Voe lowers her voice "No,"

"Then I'll be on my way, have a good night!" he calls after her as he walks away

"Wait," he turns his head around to face her "I know this might be a big ask, but could you stay?"

"Excuse me?" he turns his body as well

She shakes her head "I'm sorry, I don't know why I said that. Why would you wanna stay with me?" tears flood the bottoms of her eyes and she quickly wipes them away before turning and entering her room and closing the door behind her.

Alastor stands and thinks for a moment. He shakes his head and against his better judgment enters the rooms after her. She doesn't notice when he enters, as her head is in her hands. He twirls his cane in his fingers and plants down on the ground.

"What exactly did you need?" his voice seeps out from behind his teeth. She looks up and has tears streaming from her eyes and quickly tries to wipe them away "Why are you crying?" he asks in a voice that is slightly disgusted and condescending

She sniffles and uses her sleeves on her eyes "I'm not," she lies

"What are you sweating through your eyes?" he asks skeptically

Voe sniffles some more "No," she sits up "I'm not doing anything," blinking and turning her eyes up to stop the tears from falling

"I thought you felt bad about lying,"

"I know what I said," she looks away from him

"Okay, so you're perfectly fine?"

She doesn't answer, just sniffling some more.

"Well, I suppose I should say good night then,"

Voe slaps her knees "Alastor," he turns to face her once more "I don't like people seeing me cry,"

"Why?"

She scoffs and laughs "Would you let anyone see you cry?"

He plants his cane between his legs "I don't cry,"

She laughs "Sure you don't,"

Alastor furrows his brows "Did you need me in here for something?"

She looks up at him with her moist eyes "I just….wanted company," she admits

"Now, was that so hard?" there's an uptick in his grin

Voe plays with her fingers "Yes, it was,"

He rolls his eyes and sits down on the bed near her. A moment goes by before she breaks the silence.

"Do you hate me?"

"Why would I hate you?" he asks sarcastically

"You have lots of reasons to hate me, but I want to know if you do. Because I don't think you'd be sitting here if you did,"

He hums a bit "I dislike you strongly, and I do not trust you," he begins "But you're right, I don't hate you,"

She looks at him "I don't hate you either,"

"Well, why would you?" he grins "I haven't done anything wrong!"

She smiles a bit and turns to him "Yeah, but you're still an asshole,"

"You're a liar,"

"I know,"

He holds the cane in place "Look at us, getting to know each other better,"

Voe laughs dryly "I usually avoid crying, but I don't know what happened this time,"

"Conscience getting the best of you?"

"I guess," she sighs "You have no idea how hard it is to be me," He purrs sarcastically, and she rolls her eyes "You don't! Nobody does!"

"All that lying must be so hard!"

She drops her hands "Do you even know why I lied? Yeah, you don't,"

"Fame, fortune, attention?"

"It's more than that. Something intangible that's just out of my reach. And if I'm going to get it I can't be crying and baring my soul to everyone,"

"Aren't you deep?"

She furrows her brows "I hold my head high no matter what happens because I and that bitch!"

Alastor 'mumbles' "You're a bitch all right,"

Voe squints "You think you're better than me," she concludes "Looking down on me like you're on some sort of moral high ground," she sounds more disgusted the more she goes on. She pokes him in the chest as he stands unmoving "Newsflash you're a serial killer Alastor!" she stands as well "Not exactly the person to be judging me! At least the things I do are to achieve a goal! You do them for some sick twisted or even sexual satisfaction. I'm morality you're worth less than a shit stain!"

Alastor's tentacles spring forward, pinning her to the door and wrapping around her small frame.

"Watch your mouth,"

"I'm a bit tired of people telling me to watch my mouth,"

"Well, my dear you have to earn the right to run it," he steps closer to her "Now I know what you mean about it getting you into trouble," he tuts "Even the other employees know not to speak to me like that,"

She closes her eyes and opens them halfway "Are you going to kill me for it? Tear my soul apart?" She inhales "Yeah…know your deal. But I will not give you the satisfaction of my scream,"

"Hmm," he muses "Ǎ̵̯r̴̭͐ȅ̸̫ ̸̼̊ẏ̶͇o̴̟͋u̸͉͠ ̸̦̓ș̵̀ụ̵͘r̸̮͑ḛ̴̛?̷̯̀" he raises her with his tentacles and lowers her towards him. Alastor unhinges his jaw like a python and brings her closer to his open mouth

She struggles on the tentacles "You're gonna eat me?"

"Mm yes, most certainly. I will devour you,"

Voe laughs "That's what he said,"

"Excuse me?" He raises a brow "That is what I said,"

She continues laughing

"I don't understand the joke," his form grows large and monstrous

"Whoa," Voe stares at his new form "Are you still gonna eat me?" she giggles

He narrows his eyes "You are a strange strange woman,"

Voe smirks "Kinda digging this look actually,"

"Dig all you want, I still don't like you,"

"You don't have to, can you put me down?"

He drops her on her ass, returning to his normal form. "Oh, my mistake," he says sarcastically

Voe stands and rubs her butt "Could've dropped me somewhere soft, like on the bed. Do you always eat people?"

Alastor shrugs "Hmm,"

She steps closer to him "Do you really dislike me?"

Alastor closes his eyes "I'm not sure yet,"

"I think you like me actually,"

"Hmmm, shame I can't trust you though,"

She gives him a coy look "So you do like me. That's why you didn't eat me,"

"Shame I can't trust you,"

Voe steps even closer to the Radio Demon "Hmm, or maybe," she grabs his sleeve "That's not how you want to eat me,"

"I don't know what you're referring to," He turns his eyes down to her

She looks up at him submissively, grabbing his other sleeve "We never talked about our kiss,"

"Hmm, what is it you'd like to talk about?"

"You kissed me back,"

"I did, didn't I?"

Voe nods once "You did,"

"I'm not sure. Maybe it was the pent-up rage,"

"Wanna get rid of the rest of it?" She asks suggestively

Alastor leans down and lifts her chin, he stops less than an inch away from her lips "Not tonight,"

Voe laughs in disbelief "Are you serious?"

"Have a good night," he shadows out of the room
