Helluva Boss: ''Helluva Human Kid''

Ch.17 - A Day Off

The next morning...

The next big day of I.M.P work arrived, less crazy than it usually is but more peaceful.

Sure, some stakes were now raised for Stolas, but at least the gang were locked and loaded, ready for anything just in case.

In the meantime, Loona snuggled on the couch with Balin, who laid on her hairy belly safely wrapped up in her tail as he played his phone like she was. And this time, he had actual make-up on his face resembling his wolf pup disguise while his fur coat was hanging on the rack near the door.

Every time the boy started getting tired from the warmth of Loona's tail, she'd notice it and give his hair some little licks to try and wake him up.

"Loona!" Balin would pout with laughter.

"Sorry kiddo, but what if I need to get up from this couch?" she'd chuckle in response, as he'd snuggle up to her more.

One time she licked his hair to wake him, Blitzø walked in on the two's affectionate scene in awe.

"Ohhh! Is my Looney-Tooney grooming her whittle puppy?" he cooed.

"Ugh! No Blitzø, they're just kisses." she remarked in a small glare. "If I was ever gonna do such a thing, and I mean 'IF', I'd at least be doing it at home, away from you, EXPLICITLY."

Balin then nodded his head to the boss in reluctant agreement. It wasn't always pretty seeing Loona like this, especially after the first time the two met, but he still loved her the way she was after making her promise of looking after him.

Shrugging, Blitzø walked back into his office while the two stayed in their cozy embrace.

"So... Loona?" the boy began speaking, making Loona look down at him with intrigue. "What's working in this big office like?"

"What's it like? Um..." Loona pondered for a bit. "Well, we're like a normal company, with a lot of paperwork and all that important stuff, but we also just have a lot of fun around here too. Most of the time, I don't, but the others certainly do."

"Ooh, so you guys are like Pixar?" Balin then interrupted with a smile.

"What the fuck is Pixar?" she asked in her head, but tilted it in interest as she replied to him. "...Sort of, like Pixar. Why?"

"Because... can you keep a secret for me now?"

"I'm all ears, kiddo." Loona then lowered her head to the kid, cheekily twitching one of her ears in his face causing him to giggle.

"I heard they ride bikes and play on computers in bed all around the building." the boy then whispered in one of her ears.

"Oh, do they?" she replied with little intrigue as Balin quickly nodded. "Well, maybe that's how they make their movies. With 'fun'damental ideas. *Chuckles* Get it? Fundamental?"

She then gave Balin some belly tickles with her fingers again to make him laugh at her joke.

"But yeah. It is just like this 'Pixar', kiddo." she calmed herself down with one chuckle. "While what we do here can be scary, our clients and the gang can be pretty creative too."

"And you too?" asked Balin.

"Me too? Well, sometimes."

"What do you mean 'sometimes?'"

"Well, my main job here is the receptionist." Loona continued explaining. "Blitzø gave me this time thinking he could keep me safe, being his adopted daughter and all. But when there's targets the three can't handle on their own, that's when they whistle me in."
