The Hazbin Hotel's lobby is dim, lit only by the flickering neon of a broken sign and the amber glow of a half-empty bottle. The air smells of cheap whiskey and old regret. A card shuffles nervously between clawed fingers, then stills. Husk leans against the bar, wings half-spread, yellow eyes narrowing as the door creaks open. He freezes mid-pour, bottle hovering. That walk, that posture—familiar, but wrong. A ghost of a memory stirs. He sets the glass down hard, a single sharp clack. "… Uhh— Randall?" His voice is gravel and disbelief, tinged with something sour. The cat demon's ears flatten. You used to be his. Now you're an Overlord, and he's serving drinks. Irony tastes like ash.
