Roxanne's POV:

I'm sitting in I.M.P.'s office to Moxxie's left as Blitzø starts the meeting.

Blitzø: "All right, now I know business has been a bit slow lately. Yes, and it's no one's fault. Ok? I'm not naming any names here, Moxxie."

I snicker as Moxxie makes a face at Blitzø.

Blitzø: "Now, does anyone have any bright ideas on how we can get business drumming up again?"

Millie rises from her seat with an excited grin.

Millie: "What about a car wash?"

Blitzø: "This is Hell, Millie. No one cares about cars being clean here, ok? Oh, what about a billboard?"

Moxxie: "We can't afford a billboard, sir."

Blitzø: "Helpful, Moxxie. Really glad you're in the room right now.-*shoves Moxxie*-Have you guys forgotten what service we provide?"

Blitzø turns on a TV that shows us murdering people from the overworld. Blitzø whacks a man in the face with a mallet, Moxxie is blown away while firing a shotgun through the mouth of a man tied to a chair, Loona swings a man back and forth in her mouth, I snap a man's neck with an angered look, and Millie decapitates someone with a harpoon and laughs. Everyone's watching the TV, with Loona, Millie, Blitzø & I eating popcorn.

Blitzø: "Ah, those were the good times."

Moxxie: "I don't need any reminding, sir. Considering you blew most of our salaries on an obnoxious TV ad last week. One that you then additionally paid to have run for a full 3 hours on a channel... nobody watches."

Blitzø: "Uh, hey. Excuse me? What's obnoxious about a super-fun jingle, alright? It's a fun distraction when an advertisement's spittin' bullshit!"

Me: "People do love musicals, Mox, you especially."

Blitzø: "Exactly, Roxie! And we're basically doin' a musical.-*jazz hands*-Are you gonna crush my musical theatre dreams like my dad did?"

Moxxie: "Sir-"

Blitzø: "'Cause, right now? All I see is just my dad's asshole talking to me! Crushing my dreams of being who I truly am inside."

Millie: "Are you tryin' to crush his dreams, Moxxie?"

Moxxie: "I-What?"

Millie: "I thought I knew you."

Millie playfully sticks her tongue out at Moxxie as he blushes and rolls his eyes affectionately.

Blitzø: "I can't believe you, Moxxie! After I made you employee of the month!"

Blitzø tearfully holds up an employee of the month plaque with Moxxie's picture, and I laugh at the one he chose.

Moxxie: "Ok, sir! I'm sorry; a commercial jingle is not comparable to musical theatre. Nobody actually likes the jingles!"

Millie: "I liked it."

Me: "Me, too."

Moxxie: "Do not-*points at Millie & me*-Do not agree with him in front of me."

Then, Loona informs us of our latest client, and using Stolas' grimoire, Moxxie, Millie, Blitzø & I travel to the human world. We then hide in a bush in a park, and Moxxie is about to shoot a blonde woman looking at her phone from behind but accidentally shoots a boy passing by. So, we take the boy to the hospital and wait outside the operating room, Millie & I consoling Moxxie as the doctor approaches us.
