Chapter 1:
Questions
It was a quiet morning in the hazbin hotel.
Staff had begun setting up everything for the breakfast rush, Nifty had already begun on her regular rounds, making sure everything was spotless, Husk was restocking the bar, and Angel Dust, now holding a clipboard, was going around, making check marks whenever he passed something, seemingly going on an inspection round.
"Ya know, Legs" Husk piped up with a smirk "It's funny how you out of all folks decided to join the staff, didn't you once used to think this hotel was one big joke?"
Chuckling to himself, the tall spider demon gave the bartender a glance "Well, what can I say, Husky, this place grew on me" as he smiled and waved at some of the newly checked-in guests, some of his former co-stars from his days with Vallentino "If I can help folks with leaving their past behind them, then by fuck am I gonna. After all Charlie and Vaggie did for me, it's the least I can do to pay them back"
As Angel said this, Husk periodically stopped as he leaned on the bar with one elbow, looking at his boyfriend with a dreamy look, pride welling in his chest.
The tall, ex-pornstar would stop for a moment "Speaking of, where IS Charlie? Usually she'd be loading herself up with her papa's pancakes by now"

Charlie and Vaggie's penthouse room:
..
..
"Who knows Vaggie, this is….concerning…."
The princess and her partner hadn't been able to sleep a wink as Charlie was currently pacing back and forth in front of a large cork board, many pictures pinned to it, some of which were connected with red yarn.
Vaggie was sitting across from her, on the bed as the both of them were still dressed in their pajamas "Are you 100% sure that is what Sera said?"
Nodding furiously, Charlie responded "No doubt about it" as she grabbed a ruler and began to use it to point at several pictures, one of them being the overlord known only as "Ink", as well as many notes pinned to the board "Sera's words were VERY clear, there are 2 souls inhabiting that body, and the one currently behind the wheel is NOT the original host, there's another, and she might be suffering" as she looked back at her partner with a sympathetic glance "We GOT to get to the bottom of this….we GOT to help her, Vaggie"
The former exorcist slowly got up as she approached her partner and laid a gentle hand on her shoulder "I'm not saying you're not right, babe, I 100% agree with you. If there's truly another person trapped in there, we HAVE to help them…" before she grabbed Charlie by both her shoulders to look her in the eye with a concerned expression "But we both know WHO we're dealing with. I highly doubt someone who's known as "The countess of carnage" and "The baroness of blood" is going to just give up control willingly. We don't know how Ink is going to respond to us poking around in her business"
Taking a deep sigh, Charlie drooped her head "I know….you're right…." After which, Vaggie would add
"Plus, we both know she is one big fucking mystery, no one knows anything about her. Where would we even start? We're shooting in the dark here"
A 3rd figure would clear its throat, reminding the 2 women of their presence "Hate to be the one to point out the obvious….but who are the only 2 people that Ink is close with?"
This caught Charlie's and Vaggie's attention as the former asked "Well, we know she gets her …."meat" from Rosie…." As the princess topped for a moment, shuddering at the idea, before continuing "But who's the other-…." Before Vaggie cut her off with a gasp of realization "OF COURSE, SHE'S BESTIES WITH ALASTOR" to which Charlie's face lit up "YOU'RE RIGHT, he's bound to know SOMETHING"
The 3rd figure finally stepped out of the shadows, revealing the telltale form of Ashley, the anarchy demon, who'd give the 2 women the fingerguns "Bingo-bongo" as she then chuckled "Something is better than nothing, am I right?"
It wouldn't take long before Vaggie's face pulled into a uncomfortable scowl "Uhg….well, that might be easier said than done" to which Charlie piped up "What do you mean, honey?"
Letting go of her partner, Vaggie gestured with her hand "Think of it, babe….we both know Alastor can be…" as she exchanged a look with Ashley, who would finish the fallen angel's statement "…."Difficult"…" to which Vaggie gave her a agreeing nod.
"Well" Charlie began, pondering for a moment "We at least know Rosie and Al get along, and I'm on good terms with her, maybe we can get her to butter him up for us, might get him to be more lenient"
Sighing, Vaggie would lean against a nearby wall "Babe, I love your positivity but you know as well as I do, knowing that this individual might be suffering might just be free entertainment for him" to which the anarchy demon would add "Plus, we don't even know if he's even aware of this, for all we know, Ink keeps this a secret for him too"
Charlie however was undeterred by this as she snapped her fingers as she materialized 2 new pictures, one of Rosie and a distorted picture of the radio demon himself, before pinning these to the cork board as well and connecting them to the others with more red yarn "Well, whenever he knows about it or not, Rosie and Alastor are our best….and to be honest…"Only" leads right now…" before throwing a glance at the anarchy demon "You think you can get Velvette on top of this? With her hold over social media, she might be able to unearth something….even a little bit is better than being empty handed"
Ashley would give the princess the "surfer fingers "I'll get my babygirl on it ASAP, she's CRAZY good at this" as she fixed her large brimmed hat and began to make her way towards the door "I have to skedaddle tho, overlord meeting in 30" before she gave one last glance over her shoulder "But maybe I can even get Carmine on board"
Just as she wanted to walk out tho, she's stop suddenly as she perked up and turned around one last time "Speaking off which, hey Vags?"
"Hmm?" the fallen exorcist perked up at being addressed.
"Carmilla knew I'd be here this morning so she told me to ask ya if you maybe wanted to join her and the girls for dinner after training, she's making tamales"
Giving her a smile, Vaggie responded "Tell her I'd love to"
As Ashley would give them one last set of fingerguns, she'd disappear from the room, and not long after, could be seen wandering out of the hotel.
Charlie couldn't help but smile as she piped up "You and Carmilla really have become close, haven't you?" to which Vaggie smiled "Yea….i know she's more of a mentor but…if I have to be really honest….i'm almost starting to see her as a mother figure…..i don't know….she feels….almost like family…"
Giggling in a endeared way, the princess spoke "Hey who knows, maybe she'll adopt you one day" as she began to daydream out loud "Has a nice ring to it, don't you think? "Vaggie Carmine"…"
The fallen angel couldn't help but chuckle at her girlfriend's antic's "Charlie, I'm not saying I hadn't fantasized about the idea, but first of all, I don't even know if she feels the same, and second of all, I'm a fully grown adult woman, I don't think adoption works that way, babe" as she teasingly grabbed the demon belle into a hug and began to pinch her cheek.
As the both of them giggled in between the teasing, they'd be interrupted by a growling sound.
Looking down, they quickly pinpointed the origin of the noise to be their VERY empty stomachs. Vaggie would be the first to sigh, giving a smirk as she spoke "I suppose we better get breakfast?"
"Yea…" Charlie responded with an awkward smile "Breakfast sounds nice"
