Once Alastor had made it to his room, he waited for the scurrying sound of Niffty to reach him. He allowed her in before shutting the door.

"Does the roach king have an heir?"

"No. Well, actually, it may seem so." Alastor turned to face a small wicker basket before picking it up, adjusting, and viewing it. "I suppose I can't be outdone by the short king, can I."

Niffty stared blankly at the Radio demon as his shadow disappeared before reappearing a few moments later with various bottles. After inspecting each one, he handed it to the smaller one. "Niffty, be a dear and thoroughly clean these."

"Yes, sir." She ran off.

Once she had left the room, Alastor pulled out a small chest from under his bed. The first item he pulled out was a soft red knit blanket. With a snap of his fingers, it changed to an apple shape, and he folded it and placed it at the bottom of the basket. Holding his hand out, his shadow placed a pin-stripped dress with which it had also returned on top of the blanket. After adjusting the appearance, he conjured an equally soft yellow duck with round red cheeks. Then, Niffty returned, thrusting the baby bottles at the larger demon.

"All clean"

"Thank you." He took the bottles and carefully positioned them around the duck before standing and turning to the other. "Do leave this at Lucifer's door. I must be on my way." With that, he left the room and headed back down the stairs.

After sneaking out of the hotel, he ordered his shadow to watch the tiny creature that looked too much like himself. For surveillance, of course. He continued his walk to Rosie's emporium, where he was instantly greeted.

"Alastah, I wasn't expecting Ya!"

"Rosie, I simply must share the tea with you." He kissed her hand.

"Ooo, Do come sit down. You know I love to hear all abou' it." She slides a box of finger food onto the table. "Now, who is this Tea about?"

"Myself"

"Oh dear, You've got me caught like a fish in a net." She put her hand on her chest and leaned in, grabbing one of the fingers and taking a small bite.

"It seems I may have spawned"

"I'm sorry, spawned what, dear?"

"Well, technically, it was Lucifer but a child." He paused before stirring the tea Rosie handed him. "Honestly, I'm unsure if it is a child or even mine. It could be a ploy by the king to manipulate me."

"Alastah, You're saying you just spawned a child, and you're here with me instead of maybe bondin' with it?"

"I left my shadow to watch it."

"Well, is it a girl or a boy?"

"I believe it was a girl, but that's beside the point. What is Lucifer trying to do?" This was responded to with Rosie blatantly rolling her eye sockets.

"Alastah, Dear, go bond with that little girl before I lose my mind." She started pushing him out of his chair. "I'll visit soon to meet my goddaughtah."

"Rosie, I am not sure that is wise." His heels dug into the ground to stop the overlords from pushing him further. "I feel, No, I only want to show Lucifer I would be a better father not to bond. My own mother would be, let's say, disappointed."

"That's why ya need to bond with her! Prove you are the Bettah fathah." She taps his nose and then waves him out the door.

He knew one thing, and it was beneficial that he didn't have to do any dirty work to create a child. The thought of having to do such a task disgusted him. Not having to get closer to Lucifer. No, Not having to physically touch anyone that way at all. Something in him wanted to thank Lucifer for this, but what was created may not even be a child or his. However, it does look much like himself from what he saw. The Blonde was known for creating hell creatures like Razzle and Dazzle. Before he knew it, he strolled back into the hotel to see Charlie cradling the small babe in a strangely familiar blanket. One that looked almost apple-like, she was also wearing a small pin-stripped dress.

"Oh, Alastor, I didn't know you'd left. Would you like to hold her now? We were discussing names for her!"

He paused, pondering if it would be genuinely as bad to hold her as the first time they touched, but all he could think was the pain he was experiencing. "No, No, Thank you."

"Well, how do you feel about calling her Ava?" Lucifer took a step towards the taller.

"Absolutely not!"

"What, it isn't that bad of a name."

"Marie," Alastor said in a whisper.

Charlie furrowed her brow. "I'm sorry I didn't hear you."
Loud static filled the room as he spoke louder, "Marie Ann Magne." He paused as the static faded. "Or Morningstar, whichever."

Lucifer's eyes widened before he nodded his head. "Okay, yeah, Marie Ann Morningstar. Would you like a closer look at her? I was about to put her to bed?"

"No, I will take my leave." Alastor took this moment to leave the room, showing far more emotion in his rush than intended.
