"I gave Adam the utmost respect as a leader. But there was one thing that led to his demise, and that was his arrogance. He was so sure of our victory that it stabbed him in the back, literally. I admit even I fell victim to arrogance. This time we won't make that mistake, we will use every advantage we have. Including, surprise,"

"Do you really believe that I could be an Overlord?" Voe asks pulling on her clothing in the morning
Alastor fastened his bowtie "I believe in you as much as I believe in myself,"
She smiles while shimmying into her hot pink skirt "I should hurry up, today I have to get down into the city for the ribbon cutting,"
"For your new building?"
She nods "It's very important for me to be there,"
"Of course darling! I won't hold you...unless you want me to," he smirks, lidding his eyes
She giggles and leans forward onto his chest planting light kisses on each other's lips.
"Good luck darling,"
Voe smiles "Thank you," the butterflies in her stomach were flitting about and just wouldn't stay still
"Hello all! Welcome to the grand opening of the Beau Apartment Complex for Homeless Sinners!" There's a loud applause "I believe that no one should have to experience homelessness and that every sinner deserves a chance-"
"JUST CUT THE FUCKING RIBBON ALREADY!!"
She looks out into the crowd, scanning for the heckler, when she doesn't find them she says "Okay," under her breath "To gain access to an apartment you must file an application, which will then be approved or denied by me! Don't worry it's a very simple application! Now presenting the Beau Apartment Complex!!" the audience applauds as she cuts the ribbon with the comically large scissors, gesturing to the open building. The grin on her face shined in the light, everyone in Hell could see how proud she was of her good deed.
"So what is courting, exactly?"
Alastor strokes her hair "Well I take you out and we get to know each other,"
"We know each other already," she eats a cookie
"True, but I can get to know you more," his fingers dust over her chin
"Well, I suppose there are parts of me you haven't explored," she giggled
"See? I have so much to get to know about you," he chuckles "Courting involves all the things that dating do, with the goal of marriage,"
"Okay, then court me!"
"Yes, we are already courting," he smirks "which involves flowers," he pulls a bouquet from behind his back and hands it to her.
She takes them "Why thank you, my good sir,"
"You are very welcome," he bows before her and she turns her attention to the flowers
"You want to know something that I noticed during the Overlord meeting?"
Alastor glances over his shoulder, looking in the mirror as he fixes his coat "Hmm?"
"Nobody really cares about you," Alastor's eyes widen then squint, giving her a chance to explain herself "Not like you could just like permanently die and no one would notice, but more like...they weren't waiting with bated breath for you to come back." She turns to him
"You say that as if everyone cares about you," he hisses defensively
Voe stares at him, and he feels the guilt immediately "Hmm, I thought that would bother me," she smiles "but that's okay, not everyone has to care about you or me. Because we care about each other, right?"
Alastor nods slowly while Voe looks shocked at her own words
"Who am I?"
"Places places people! We're doing a full run!"
Someone moans "Yes! I love tech week!"
Voe smiles walking past them with a headset and clipboard "Where's Rosie's costume?"
"Right here!" and they step on and trip on the costume
Voe rubs her forehead "Now there's a footprint on it, send it out for dry cleaning!"
"Okay," they let out a pained croak, running away
"Rosie dear, there was a bit of an issue with your costume, are you okay performing in your regular clothes? If not, we can delay this rehearsal,"
Rosie shakes her head "Oh no, that's why I bring my own clothes everywhere," she pulls out a replica costume "Auntie Rosie knows the show must go on,"
"Well, Auntie Rosie is a lifesaver and a genius!"
Rosie grins "She knows,"
"Are all props set?" she gets no response "ARE ALL PROPS SET?"
"Yes!"
"We're at 20!" the stage manager shouts
"Thank you 20!" Voe and the actors shout back
One of her employees runs up to her "Um Miss Voe, someone's here to see you,"
She raises her eyebrow "Who?"
The demon swallows "The Radio Demon,"
Voe smirks and walks from behind the stage, her heels clicking on the stairs and the floor "What are you doing here?" She asks playfully
"Why I'm here for the show, my dear!" he places his cane down between his legs
"This is tech week, the dress rehearsal is next week, and don't tell me you forgot, why are you really here?"
"Maybe I just wanted to see my intended," he smirks down at her
"Well here she is," she smiles stealing a kiss. He tenses a bit "You're still just as scary. Actually you're even more scary now that you have someone to protect," she whispers placing her hands on his chest. She turns to see some employees staring "What are you looking at?" she yells "Back to work!" and the demons obey
"Well, being the boss looks good on you,"
"I know right?"
Rosie comes to greet them with open arms in her costume "Well hello to the happy couple!" she hugs them both Alastor's smile widens
"Hello dear Rosie, just here to see the progress,"
"More like here to see me," Voe says and they all laugh
"So when's the wedding? You never told me,"
"That's because it's a secret," Alastor chuckles
Rosie's voice gets high pitched "How are you gonna keep it a-"
Voe and Alastor start laughing
"Honestly! How do you expect us to come?!"
"We don't know," Voe tells her
"We're at 10!"
"Thank you 10!" Voe turns to her finacé "Do you want to stay and watch?" He nods and Voe leads him down to the front, giving him a seat at the table. Alastor watches as she and the tech manager discuss lights and sound effects. He watches the demons working smile and laugh with the cast, as they enjoy their cultivated community. He stares at his soon-to-be bride and feels a wave of understanding wash over him. He needed her, the way this theater did, and he needed her as soon as possible. Alastor leans over and kisses her hair.
"Next week," he whispers
"Hmm?" she questions while writing something down for a cue
"I want to marry you next week," he repeats himself
Voe's eyes pop out of her head "What?"
He sets his face into a close-lipped smile "You heard me,"
Voe turns to her stage manager "Can you handle this?"
She nods "Yup,"
She stands and pulls Alastor with her, out into the lobby.
"Are you...crazy? Don't answer that, I know you are,"
"I think we need to be married as soon as possible,"
"But next week is opening night!"
"What better night!" He grins at her
Voe closes her eyes and thinks for a moment "You're insane," she laughs and shakes her head
"Sure I am! But that doesn't change how I feel for you,"
She paces around her partner and then stops "Fine, let's get married next week,"
"Let's get married next week!" He spreads his arms out wide
She smirks "Would you like a hug?"
"From you? Of course," and they embrace
"Casper!"
"Yes?"
"How many souls have I gained today?"
He reads through the documents "2,"
"2?! What do you mean 2??"
"I mean 2 miss,"
"Where are they from?"
"From the apartment complex miss,"
"How many souls do I have now?"
"2,500,"
"Thank you, Casper,"
"No problem,"
"Pink and red obviously, I want the flowers to be pink and red,"
"And what else miss?"
She turns to Alastor "What else my love?"
"Sweetie, does everything have to be deer-themed?"
Voe looks around at the deer-themed arch, the deer-themed chairs, the deer-themed walkway, and down to the deer-themed wedding rings. "Yes!"
"Well, it's your day,"
"It's our day Alastor. It's your wedding too!"
He shakes his head "A wedding is a woman's day,"
"No, that was back when women were considered property. Nowadays the men should be helping," She places the book in front of him "That's not a suggestion,"
"Well then let us get to work,"
"Indeed," Voe spots the Princess passing through "Oh Charlie! Here," she hands the demoness an envelope with her name on it
"Oh, what's this?" she asks with a smile
Voe looks up at her "It's an invitation,"
Charlie gasps "For the wedding?" Voe nods "Oh I'm so excited!"
"Say, why haven't you married Vaggie?"
Charlie blushes "I don't know," she strokes her ponytail "But I'm so glad that you are Alastor are tying the knot! I knew you two were meant to be!"
"Well, thank you for always believing in me and us,"
Charlie's smile shines bright "You can always count on me,"
Voe smiles back "Well get to it, it is next week,"
She looks down at the invitation "Next week! Oh shit! I gotta pick my clothes,"
Voe calls after her "The invite is for Vaggie too!" she sits down next to Alastor "Well this is gonna be exciting,"
"Hey y'all! Did I tell y'all about the apartment that I opened for homeless sinners? All it takes is a simple application and you're off the streets of Pentagram City!"
thats a good idea
great idea
good job
it ain;t all that
GREAT IDEA
Is it only for peopel in Pentagram City??
"Of course not! Anyone and everyone is allowed!"
my application wasa denied
"On what grounds?" Voe leans in to read the comment
da grounds of YO MAMA!
on the grounds that the apartment was full
"Full? What do you mean full? this was never reported to me,"
she wasnt meant to run a business
she dont really care bout yall
"I'm gonna look into this as soon as possible,"

"Casper!"
"Yes ma'am?"
"Why is it that I'm hearing that some people are getting denied in the apartment complex?"
He checks the clipboard "Well, we have to deny them because the building is full,"
Voe is flabbergasted "How did it fill up that quickly?"
Casper is confused "There are a lot of homeless sinners,"
I approve applications and they'll say it's a clothing store, but it's secretly a drug ring
"Let's pay a visit to the apartment Casper,"
"Yes ma'am,"
