Alastor was heading to his radio tower to do his daily radio broadcast when his shadow heard something going on in Angel's room. The shadow placed his ear over the spider's door when he heard what appeared to be a child-friendly show playing, along with someone babbling. Alastor walked over to the door and listened in to what was going on. He noticed that the infantile sounds belonged to... Angel? No, it really couldn't be, could it? The radio demon knocked on Angel's door, then opened it. What he saw next was surprising - Angel was sitting inside of a sensory swing, suckling on a pacifier while cuddling Fat Nuggets and watching some type of children's program on his phone. The spider was dozing off, and Fat Nuggets was trying to keep him awake. Alastor quietly shut the door before Angel and Fat Nuggets could notice him.

The radio demon really didn't know what was going on. He wasn't sure what to do either. Was he going to judge Angel for his odd coping mechanism? Of course not. He was way too mature to do such a thing. He decided to head downstairs to the bar and talk to Husk since Angel always hung out with him every day.

"Husker, I know you're busy with your job, but may I speak with you privately?" Alastor requested as he sat down on one of the bar stools.

"Uh, sure, boss," Husk said after he finished serving a hotel resident of some margarita and began cleaning an empty wine glass.

"I believe Angel needs you right away."

"Why's that? Does he want to show me some more of his latest outfits he got for Fat Nuggets?"

"Oh, it's not that. I was on my way to my tower when I heard what I thought was Angel babbling. I opened the door and saw that he had a pacifier in his mouth and was watching a cartoon on his cellular device."

Husk stopped what he was doing and turned over to Alastor.

"Did Angel regress?" Husk questioned.

"Well, who's to say? I don't personally know about this regression, but it's not my place to judge as long as Angel isn't hurting anyone or himself. In fact, he's safe in his room and looked as if he was falling asleep."

"Angel usually gets tired during this time of day when he's little. I'll go check on him. Thanks for telling me, and thanks for being cool about this."

"It's no problem at all," Alastor nodded as he disappeared into the shadows to do his broadcast.

The winged cat closed the bar and went upstairs to check on Angel. He knocked on the door softly and received some cooing and yawning from the spider in return.

Husk opened the door and spotted Angel in his sensory swing, who was fighting sleep and rubbing his eyes.

"Hey, little ragno. I think it's time for someone's nap," Husk cooed as he walked over to Angel and scooped him up from his swing.

Angel didn't complain. He loved it when Husk put him down for his afternoon nap or for bedtime whenever he regressed. The spider yawned as Husk carried him to his bed and changed him into a Pull-Up and his favorite Olivia (the pig) pajamas.

When Husk started carrying Angel to his room, the little sleepily babbled to his caregiver, saying that he was watching Baby Einstein and learning about the ocean on his phone with Fat Nuggets. "Really? That must have been interesting, huh? But now, it's time for us to rest for a while."

Fat Nuggets followed the duo with Angel's baby blanket and two favorite stuffies - Rainbow Puppy and Twinkle - in his mouth.

Once in Husk's room, the winged cat sat down in his rocking chair and placed Angel on his lap. Fat Nuggets handed Husk the comfort items.

"Thank you, Fat Nuggets. You're a really big help, you know that?" Husk thanked as he handed the blanket and stuffies to a nearly-asleep Angel.

Fat Nuggets climbed into Angel's arms, and Husk began rocking the chair back and forth. The spider cuddled into his caregiver's embrace as he was kissed on the forehead.

The next ten to fifteen minutes were spent with Husk rocking Angel to sleep and singing lullabies to him.

When Angel fell asleep, Husk carefully stood up and carried the baby to his bedside crib next to his bed. The winged cat placed Angel inside and tucked him and Fat Nuggets in. While Husk prepared Angel's musical crib attachment toy, he could hear him humming in his sleep.

Husk chuckled as he climbed into his bed. He smiled heartily at the sleeping duo next to him before falling asleep himself.

Meanwhile, the hotel was treated with a calming ambiance of vintage music - all thanks to Alastor. He figured that everyone should take time to rest and slow things down, no matter if they were big or small.
