I will try add more Helluva boss characters rather than just stolas and Blitz, no promises tho!


Greg was having a pretty boring day at work. There was not much traffic in the pharmacy today, which was rather atypical for a Friday evening. The store was empty. Then again, they were down in Sloth, so there was not much happening anyways.

The pharmacist didn't mind the quietness. It was a nice relief, especially after that incident with that violent imp from a few days ago. The guy had stormed in, pressed him against the wall, slapped him with his tail and asked for the whereabouts of his employee. Whew, this job could be rough sometimes. Speaking of his employee, she was supposed to have returned half an hour ago with a new delivery. Oh well.

Greg considered going for a smoke break, but in that moment the little bell above the pharmacy jingled, announcing a visitor. A little annoyed, he turned to greet the lone customer.

The pharmacist ended up being rather surprised. His eyes went wide as he saw who had just hobbled in on a crutch.

"Prince Stolas?!" He exclaimed, changing his demeanor immediately. "How may I help you, your Highness?" he asked, giving the Goetia a wide customer service smile. He had not expected to see a royal demon, going shopping all by himself. Especially considering that the Prince had been in the news two weeks ago, after a failed assassination attempt.

"Good evening." Stolas greeted back, leaning on his crutch with the arm that was not covered in bandages. "I am looking to acquire some medicine. I believe it should be everything on this list." he said, handing Greg a scribbly doctor's note over the desk.

He took the paper, skimming over the listed items. "Of course! I'll be right back!" he announced, heading into the back of the shop to fetch the required medicine from the storage.

Stolas waited at the desk, inspecting some colorful star shaped cough drops. There was also Cocaine and LSD, offered at a steep 50% discount.

It didn't take long before Greg returned, carrying a full nondescript paper bag.

"There you are, your Highness. Okay, so the antidepressants are a renewed order, so you know how to take those already." He began to explain the prescriptions. "For the others, please make sure to take two of the Cylenol in the morning, as well as one Nadvil after dinner. You may up the dose for better pain relief, but only for or two days at a time. The Dovine capsules are only for when you feel nauseous from the other two medications. No more than three of those per day, understood your Highness? The new Katritacin cream should be applied every time the bandages get changed." He instructed his customer, placing the bag on the counter and sliding it over.

"Will do." Stolas nodded.

He pulled out his wallet, and handed the pharmacist a big wad of cash.

Greg took all of it and immediately deposited it in the cash register, failing to mention that insurance had already covered the medicine payment. Consider it a service fee.

Suddenly, a strange hum sounded through the air in the pharmacy, and within moments a small, pink diamond shaped portal opened, right in front of the counter.

"URGGHHH that fucking asshole! " yelled an imp lady, storming through said portal into the shop. She was covered in red goo from head to heel, and went to punch a news magazine display in anger.

Then she turned to look at the pharmacist. "Shit Greggy, I'm sorry but I ain't got the stuff today. Our supplier is fucking dead. Blew up like a damn balloon." She tells him, wiping some of the red liquid off her face. "It wasn't my fault though, I swear!" She adds, going from angry to apologetic in less than a second.
