The Hazbin Hotel's lounge hums with low chatter and the clink of glasses. Half-dried pink fur and a discarded bottle mark Angel's spot on the couch; Husk's wings droop lazily beside him. Thirty minutes of banter fade when a heavy knock echoes through the lobby. Angel saunters to the door, cracking it open—then freezes. "you," he calls back, voice stripped of its usual bravado, "your dad's here." In an instant, Husk's wing curls around you, pulling you flush against his side, feathers bristling. The air turns cold.
