Story of Another Us | Huskerdust AU

Angeldust went back to work the next day. Val was having another one of his power trips. Anthony blocked most of it out.

"yadda yadda bitch, yadda yadda ungrateful. Yadda yadda yadda." Was all Anthony really heard until:

"I should rip every god damn feather off that over grown house cat's body!"

Anthony's eyes went wide. His eyebrows furrowed....... Husk doesn't have feathers on...... That doesn't fuckin matter, what the fuck!?! He thought.

He picked himself off the floor and wiped the blood from his lip. His eyes went purple, his voice rattled. Something he's never done in front of Val. Frankly he didn't think he was able to.

"You may be able to hit, kick, stab whatever the fuck else ya decide to do to me, here. But, I'll be damned if I let ya hurt MY boyfriend, ya bald ass fuckin psychopath!" He screamed in Valentino's face.

Valentino snickered and took a drag from his cigarette on his fancy shmancy cigarette holder. "You think you have a choice? You can't do anything! I'd be doing you a favor anyway, he's a sellout piece of shit."

Anthony knew it was a bad idea, especially in the studio but, he wasn't gonna let anyone bad mouth Husk. He waited for Valentino to turn his back. His eyes were still purple. He took a running leap at the moth, ripping his glasses off Val's face and threw them. He sunk his fingers in the moth's, might as well be useless eyes, anyway. His voice rattled when he spoke again.

"FUCKIN TAKE IT BACK!" He screamed.

He wasn't sure if Val was cooking, or if he was just taken by surprise at Angel's sudden outburst. He put up with A LOT but, that was where he drew the line. He groaned in pain, as loud someone who just took a finger all the way into both of  their eyes, would. Angeldust jumped off the moth grabbing his belongings quickly.

"Only piece of shit I know, is you asshole!"  He stated as he flung his purse over his shoulder.

"Fuck you, my shift is over anyway!" He held all six of his arms out all of them with a certain finger raised at the moth as he left his dressing room.

Val stood in the dressing room dumbfounded. His glasses were somewhere in the room when the spider threw them. He found them by accident stepping on them. He screamed in anger.

"THOSE WERE FUCKIN CUSTOM MADE! WITH MY PRESCRIPTION, GETTING ANOTHER PAIR GONNA COST ME AN ENTIRE YEARS WORTH OF FILMS!" Val yelled.

Anthony was no longer in the studio. But the entire studio paid for his actions.

Later on, Vox tried his best to calm him down.  His screen was on the max brightness and Val still rampaged through the tower.

For once Charlie decided to have her little exercises at the hotel and were taking a brief intermission so Husk used this as his opportunity to talk to Charlie about Angeldust's deal. He wasn't sure how to bring it up. She walked over to the bar and ordered a drink.

Husk looked around to make sure Alastor was around before he walked over to her.

"Hey princess could we talk for a minute?" He asked.

She nodded.

"Of course!" She said excitedly as she clapped her hands, she was giddy like a child. It wasn't everyday Husk wanted to talk to anyone. Especially her.

Husk took a seat handed the bartender who also worked for Alastor a 20 dollar bill in exchange for a bottle of the cheap stuff. He opened it and took a swig.
