Loona the Caretaker

Love From Loona

Cody was having a little walk with Octavia down the stairs to get back to the party happening. There, he was encountered by Lilith. "Ah, there you are, sweetie." said the Queen of Hell. "I've been looking all over for you. When I heard about that little Hellhound skirmish, I... assumed the worst, you know."

"I'm fine, your majesty." said Cody

Lilith smiled and said, "Good. I'm glad to hear that. My daughter was wondering where you were as well." she gently reached out her right hand and began to gently pat his head of brown hair. "What were you doing up here? And You're not in trouble, I was only curious, sweetie." Cody made a small gulp, and hoped that Lilith wouldn't punish him or anything like that, and he moved his eyes to and fro rapidly. He probably knew that even the queen of Hell wasn't very fond of Christ either.

"Well, I noticed the door was open on the balcony, thought I would get a look at it. I mean, the stars look beautiful down here at night." Cody explained. "I thought I would take a look at the sky, and the city below me."

"Ah. I wouldn't blame you. That is the perfect spot for that kind of opportunity." Lilith noted. "Understandable. So, I'll go tell my daughter that you are alright and she has nothing to worry about. In the meantime, please go back down to the party. I can imagine how worried Loona is about you."

"OK, your highness." Cody smiled.

"Octavia, i trust you will be his escort?"

"Yes, my queen." the Goetia princess nodded her head in a flat voice. "Come on Cody, you heard the queen."

"Sure."

The Goetia was glad to be bringing him back down here and didn't want to anything bad to happen to him when he was not with her, or Cody's new companions. Many demons were mingling with other demons and pdy was greeted by someone he just met before the party.

"Hey Cody." it was Crymini, the short hellhound he met earlier. "enjoying the party?"

"Yep."

"Awesome! You've got to try the hot dogs over there. They are mind-blowing!"

"I already did, and they are good." Cody smiled. "What kind of meat are they?"

"Hell-Hogs!" Crymini said enthusiastically.

Cody looked surprised and remembered seeing taxidermy at that shop Octavia liked to browse and look at. "Oh. Are those the ones with the long tusks and the stripes on them?"

"Yeah, those are the ones." Crymini said.

"Hello Crymini." said Octavia in a flat voice. "I see you are having your taste of meat get to your instincts."

"Come on, miss Sunshine." said the hellhound, "You gotta lighten up a little bit. This is a party."

"Yes, but I prefer to celebrate it in my own way. I don't have to go out in the dance floor and make a fool of myself." the Goetia princess rolled her eyes. "You know that I am more mellow than you are."

"Mellow can be boring." said Crymini with her arms crossed. "You have to make some noise to have fun."

"I don't think everyone would agree with you on that."

"Whatever." said Crymini. "See ya around Cody." the hellhound smiled at the boy before sliding down the stairs rail.

"Be careful around her." said Octavia. "Not saying she is dangerous, but she can be a little... extreme at times."

"She's not that bad. I mean, I only met her before I went here."

"I understand. I gotta to check on my dad and see if he's... behaving himself. I hope you have fun here."
