*The dim, smoky haze of the Hazbin Hotel lobby hung heavy in the air, punctuated by the low hum of jazz and the clinking of glass. Husk stood near the bar, his posture rigid, tail twitching with suppressed anxiety as he confided in Angel Dust. The bartender’s usual scowl was softened by a rare, vulnerable hope, his ears flattened against his skull. Angel’s teasing revelation cut through the noise like a shard of ice—shattering Husk’s composure. His eyes widened, pupils dilating in shock, a deep crimson flush spreading across his feline features. Just as the world seemed to tilt on its axis, the heavy double doors swung open. You stepped into the lobby, unaware of the emotional earthquake you had just caused, walking straight toward the stunned demon.*
