A week after the hotel is a rebuilt, Charlie decides to visit Rosie to thank her for the help of the cannibals during the extermination. With a plan set she also convinces Vaggie to come with her. Charlie mainly wants to show her the sights of the town and introduce her to the overlord but as they are making their way through the town, an immense feeling of Deja vu washes over Vaggie. She doesn't remember ever visiting this part of the pride ring in the past so this sense is confusing to say the least. In town square a shadow of the past notices their appearance and tries to investigate the familiar woman. Charlie still has some things to learn about her girlfriend's past while Vaggie would prefer to leave it behind now that her old occupation is out in the open between them. But she does know that eventually they have to talk about why exactly Vaggie fell in the first place.

Charlie had been wanting to thank the cannibal overlord in person for a while now but things kept coming up with the reconstruction of the hotel. Not to mention having her father live with them caused a lot of conflict between Lucifer and Alastor. Things have finally started to slow down now so she decides it's finally time to visit Rosie. Not only does Charlie have to thank her for the aid and the advice on her relationship with Vaggie after the trial with heaven, she also wants to introduce the overlord to the ex-Angel. Rosie is sure to want all the details about what happened after she had left that day. Maybe they can talk over some tea, Alastor always mentioned how enjoyable it is to do so whenever he went to visit his dear friend. So without wasting time, she went to find her angelic girlfriend and propose the trip to her.

It didn't take long to find Vaggie. Charlie had been told she would be manning the front of the hotel to welcome any new guests they have for the day. She's sure Vaggie is guarding the hotel at the same time. Charlie smiled at the thought of how protective her girlfriend is of herself and her dreams. Their relationship has grown stronger than ever before once both had returned from cannibal town and Carmilla's wear house. The talk with Rosie really helped Charlie understand why Vaggie didn't tell her about being an exorcist, in more ways then one. Let's just say talking wasn't the only thing their mouths did that night. And considering that everyone knew that Vaggie went to Carmilla to learn how to defend themselves against the Angel army, no one batted an eye when she limped down the stairs the next day. Or the way she winced and hissed when sitting. Or the bruises. Or the long scratch marks that may or may not have drawn blood.....look there was a lot of things that went unquestioned that day, moving on!

Charlie shook her head to clear it of the dirty (although very pleasurable) memories before making her way to the lobby. The last thing she needed was to lose all self control at the sight of her angel. Not when there's things to do later. Speaking of things to do later, Charlie saw Vaggie sitting at the new bar. She was conversing with a seemingly new patron about what to expect on their path to redemption. Charlie smiled. Ever since the news of Sir Pentious's redemption into heaven got out around hell, they've been flooded with guests. It's part of the reason they've been so busy. And while they've talked about their feelings on the situation, they haven't had the chance to talk about why Vaggie was cast out. And every time they do they get.....distracted. Charlie stood to the side and watched her angel at work with a smile. After a few seconds, Vaggie looked over to Charlie to give her a quick smile before turning back to the new patron and finishing off what she was saying. Once she was sure the sinner understood the rules and activities, she excused herself and made her way towards Charlie.

Once she was close enough Charlie pulled her in closer, wrapping her arms around the angel causing her to wrap her arms around her neck, neither of them losing the soft smile and loving eyes. They stood in the comfortable silence for a good few minutes, just breathing each other in. Vaggie finally broke the silence and asked "Did you need something Hun?" Charlie gave a small shrug. "I've just been thinking about maybe taking a trip to Cannibal town, to thank Rosie for her help. I was just wondering if you wanted to leave hotel management to Al and come with me." Vaggie hummed as she thought about it. Charlie spoke highly of the women and it would be nice to meet the one who had been there for the princess when she couldn't be but overlords put her on edge. Though she supposes that the cannibal overlord is one of the better ones. Vaggie sighed, deciding to just consider this trip an opportunity to spend some quality time with the one she loves more than anything rather than a trip to an overlord. "Alright." Charlie's smile grew wider. "We could use the break." Vaggie finished with a warm smile.
