At Stolas' place, he, his daughter, Cody, the Stooges, and Barbie Wire were getting settled in. The twin sister of Blitzo was feeling a little insecure about the interior of this chateau. "Whew, i always heard that lord Stolas had a nice place but not this nice." said Curly
"Yeah, why do the rich people always get the good stuff?" Said Larry.
"The money, obviously. Yet... we had all the money back in out hayday." Moe pointed
"Look," Stolas sighed, walking up to the Three Stooges. "I know that you believe that i am one of those pompous, arrogant fucks in the Goetia. But, i can assure you all i am not like that. Neither is my daughter."
"He's right." said Cody. "These guys are cool people. They helped me against Mr Belmont when he was about to kill me."
"And don't forget the time we saved you from my cunt of a mother." Octavia smirked
Moe covered the boy's ears. "Don't say that word in front of the kid."
"Guys, i told you." Said Barbie as she was sitting on the couch. "No one cares about cursing fown here in Hell."
"And besides... Cody has already been through so much." Octavia pointed.
"Right." The Three Stooges remembered.
"Well it's not like Cody is Peter Pan." said Larry. "He is way better than that little menace."
"What's wrong with Peter Pan?" Asked Cody in a confused voice. "Isn't he supposed to be a good guy?"
"In the cutesy-wootsy Disney version, yeah." Said Moe.
"but in the original story when it was first published?" Said Curly before he gave a "pfft" sound. "The original Peter Pan was far, far from the Disney one."
"He's right." Said Stolas. "Being a bookworm myself, Peter was a... what's a proper phrase to say it... a sociopath."
"How?" Asked Cody, sounding a little confused.
"I don't know if I should tell you." Stolas sounded a little sheepish. "It will ruin your happiness from watching the beloved film."
"yeah, we don't want to scare you about the details." Octavia said.
"Nothing can scare me." Cody boasted as the two Goetias looked at him with skepticism. "Well... almost nothing. Except for Mr Belmont, some of the scary and evil demons down here, torture, and..." the boy had a cold feeling go through his spine thinking about what he was going to say last. "... the crazy grasshopper from a Bug's Life. The one that acts like a rabid dog."
"Never seen that movie." said Barbie. "What are you talking about?"
"I don't like to talk about it." said Cody. "I don't even like to think about it. Besides, I read the first Story of The Fox And The Hound before."
"Right..." said Octavia.
"Anywho, i shouldn't tell you about the original Peter Pan." Stolas said.
"Some things are better left unsaid." Octavia rolled her eyes.
"Look, fellas, i am certainly not like other Goetias. Neither is Via."
"We believe ya" said Larry.
"Just make yourselves at home, and please don't touch any priceless artifacts in the manor."
"Got it, your highness." Moe nodded his head.
as the retired actors looked around the beautiful interior, Barbie said: "I already texted Blitzo about what's going on." said Barbie. "Don't know when he'll reply back to me."
"Oh he is probably busy with his client." Said Stolas.
There was awkward silence in the room before Cody asked: "so, do you still hate Blitzo, Stolas?"
"What? I don't hate him, Cody." The owl demon pointed. "It's complicated as i have told you before."
"ok. Well are you still mad at him or upset with him?"
"i'm not mad as i am sad or disappointed in Blitzo. Cody," he knelt down. "You do not have to worry about how me and Blitzo interact."
"I know." Cody sighed.
"What happened between you guys?" Said Barbie
"that's none of your business." Said Octavia.
"Whatever." The female imp pointed.
"look before things get awkward," said Stolas, "i hear you got the wedding ring ready." He smiled
"Yep!" Cody smiled back. "I kept it in a safe place for the wedding."
"Who's getting married?" Asked Barbie.
"My brother, Tommy."
"Ooh, that's what's up." Barbie smiled.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang and Pringles the butler went to answer it. "Hey hey hey! What's up, motherfuckers!" Said a raspy voice. It was none other than Fizz himself. "Stolas, my man! I wanted to return you the vibrator you gave me last we-oh!" Fizz then saw the human boy. "Cody! What a nice surprise" then he covered the vibrator with a rag.
"What's that?" said Cody curiously
Blushing, Fizz said: "just... a toy, nothing you should worry about, kiddo." He gave him a nervous smile. "What are you doing here?"
"Blitzo and the guys are helping another client and they'll be out for a couple of hours. So Stolas is watching me until Loona gets back."
"ah, that explains a-" Fizz paused and gasped. "Barbie?!" He ran up to her and hugged her tightly. His robotic arms were definitely not making it easier for the female imp.
"Good to see you too, Fizz- ah!" She gagged. Lickily, the jester let her go so she can breath normally again.
"Long time, no see, Barb! I thought you were in the fucking funny farm?"
Looking annoyed, Barbie corrected him by saying: "It was rehab, Fizz."
"Oh, right." Fizz looked embarrassed
"This day is so weird." Cody thought to himself.
"Barb, I know you hate Blitzo, but he misses you and the least you can do is-"
"We already talked it out." His childhood friend pointed. "We're back on good terms... mostly,"
"Whew, that's a relief." The jester smiled. "Can't believe that it was all those years ago that we were Bffs at Cash Buckzo's circus" then ue looked at Cody. "So are you practicing with those axes i gave you, Cody?"
"Sure am! And i'm practicing it's two-handed combo too."
"Perfect! I created those for you, kiddo."
