After the door closed, Akuma immediately started looking for anything on crackstone as he heard Wednesday dump Thing out of her backpack onto a glass case and also speak.

Wednesday: So why did you say you would rather be fighting?

Akuma: My fathers, they told me tales of their amazing and fun fights. I grew up hearing all these badass tales, so I thought: "If they can do it, why can't I?". 

Wednesday watched as Akuma kept explaining while also searching.

Akuma: Turns out, I was stronger, faster, more durable, more bloodthirsty, better in every way than my dads.

Thing was also searching as Akuma continued.

Akuma: Gojo was the only one who I knew if I were to go full strength, he would give me an amazing fight, sure one of us would die, but the other wouldn't come out unscathed, the winner would come out severely damaged.

Wednesday: How do you control your thirst for blood?

Akuma: I fight, all the time. If I'm not fighting, you can guarantee I'm fighting anyone and everyone in my head, and it does the job for a bit.

As Akuma finished, Wednesday walked over to Akuma and put her hand on the demon's cheek.

Wednesday: You're mi amor. (My love)

Akuma: Soshite, anata wa watashi no akuma no joō, suiyōbidesu. (And you're my demon queen, Wednesday.)

Wednesday: Arigatō, Akuma. (Thank you, Akuma.)

Akuma: So you do know Japanese.

Wednesday: Obviously.

Akuma chuckles before kissing Wednesday, who kissed back.

Soon, Akuma pulls back before walking over to a book case and punching the glass, breaking it, causing both Wednesday and Thing to turn to Akuma.

Wednesday: What did you find?

Akuma grabbed the book and started looking through it before growling angrily.

Akuma: A damn blank book! Somebody stole the original!

Wednesday grabbed the book as Akuma glared at the crackstone statue and slashed the statue's face, causing the statue to have three claw marks on the face before it fell to the ground in pieces.

Just as Akuma did, he and Wednesday both glared at Arlene, who walked in while holding Eugene by the arm.

Arlene: Just what the fudge are you both doing in here?

Wednesday: Mistress Arlene. How now?

Arlene: How now, indeed. I proclaimed the meeting house is under repair. I know thoust heard me.

Eugene: I told her the door was unlocked and the both of you were dying to learn more about Crackstone.

Wednesday: Yes, and this display case was already broken.

Akuma: And the statue was already broken.

Arlene: That book's a replica.

Wednesday: You don't say.

Akuma: Somebody stole the original during the 2:00 to 4:00 witch trials, didn't they?

Arlene: How'd you know?

Akuma: It's what I would've done, if I was a petty thief.

Arlene: You're right, but it happened last month.

Akuma: OK. *thoughts* If this had happened last month, then they should have almost or do have enough supplies for their big plan. Unless they need someone for it, so who else is working with you, Tyler?

Wednesday: It was probably the only authentic thing you have in here, yet you still charge $29.95 for a ticket?

Arlene: Hold thy tongue.

Akuma: I suggest you recheck your tone, before you find out why the statue's head was broken because I've had a really shitty day so far and all you're doing is making it worse.

Arlene: I'm reassigning you three. To fudge-churning duty.

Eugene lets out a disappointed sigh.

Wednesday: The original meeting house, the one in that painting, where is it?

Arlene: *sighs* How the hell should I know? I only moved here from Scottsdale in April.

Akuma: Shitty time to move for a shitty job.

Wednesday and Akuma leave pilgrim world, with Akuma flipping off the sign as Wednesday quietly giggled.

Akuma: Fuck pilgrim world!
