Helluva Mate

In Blitzø's hallucination, Stolas turned into gold dust and blows away, Ebony's eyes showing genuine concern as her body faded inti the shadows. The throne and its feathered surroundings also meet the same fate.

"You're going to die alone!" Stolas said, taunting him

"You're gonna die alone, Blitz-o!" Fizzarolli laughed

In the sky above, all of the ink creatures swirl together, the gold dust that was once Stolas and his throne ascend and join the multicolored vortex above. Blitzø is surrounded by a tornado of golden feathers, which surround and stick to him until his arms are bound together and his mouth is covered. He opens his mouth in a silent scream, tearing the feathers away.

♫ Why, Moxxie, why, ♫

♫ Have you held your true feelings inside? ♫

♫ I am scared of rejection ♫ setting the candelabra on a table

♫ Why, Moxxie, why, ♫

♫ Do you have Millie put it in your butt? ♫

♫ It gives me an erectio- ♫ Hey!

♫ No need to hide ♫

♫ We accept your true feelings, so promise me ♫

♫ That I can do ♫

♫ To be true ♫

♫ The world is your anus, so peg it with honesty ♫

"Ohhh . ." Moxxie joining him at the organ

♫ I've been a jackass, it's true ♫

♫ You’ve been a jackass, it's true ♫

♫ But soon as we're back as ourselves... ♫

♫ I will be a better friend ♫

♫ Than I was before ♫

♫ Be better at speaking my mind, and... ♫

♫ Together ♫

♫ We can begin to become... ♫

♫ Fine ♫

Ebony looked looked at a three-by-four twelve digit keypad, Millie's and Loona's eyes narrowing slightly as they lean in closer. She noticed that only one button showed sighs of wear, while the other buttons were completely intact.

"You know . ." She trailed off, looking at the keypad "I'm oddly glad I was never human."

She reached for the keypad, pressing number one until the door opened, which had been five times, the doors opening to reveal a reception desk. The girls look to each other in affirmation and run inside, Millie vaulting over the desk as the door slams shut behind them.

Their hallucinations wore off, Blitzø and Moxxie slowly waking up. The taller Imp glanced at the vents, seeing that the truth gas was no longer being pumped into the room, both of them remaining silent for a moment,

"Do you remember what you said to me after my first day with the company?" Moxxie asked, breaking the silence

". . Not really." Blitzø replied

"I remember." His head slightly lowered "You told me I did a good job and that you were proud to work with me. I feel like you wanted to say something more judgmental, but . . you said that because I needed it . . And it helped."
