*Husk takes a sip of his drink as he continues to look at Jackie closely before suddenly coughing after drinking from his bottle.*

Husk: Wait, "Fox Demon"?
❀-------------------------------❀

*Jackie smiles broadly, showing her fangs as she leans slightly towards Husker, her hands folded behind her back and her ears erect, ready to listen to anything*

*After he manages to clear his throat, Husk looks at her again. His eyes suddenly widen after he sees her fangs at the same time*

Husk: Fangs....

*Husk can't stop looking at her fangs, but then he says*

Husk: But still, I've never ever met a fox demon before.

Jackie: And you won't~ hehehe~

*Jackie giggles proudly and provocatively*

Husk: Pfft! As if you're invincible or something. But hey, don't demons usually just use their powers without saying anything? Why did you use those ice powers? Just to freeze Angel's mouth?

*Jackie walks away from Husker with a smile*

Jackie: cuz he made me angry~

*Husker sigh*

Husk:  Whatever... He deserved it if he managed to irritate you like that.

*After that, Husk takes another sip of his drink, just as Alastor asks her*

Alastor: So my dear, I'd also like to know, how did you even end up here?

*Jackie rubs under her chin a little thoughtfully and the smile does not leave her*

Jackie: Let me remember~ I was sitting and talking with my father on the top of a snowy mountain and I was on the edge~

*Jackie shrugs her shoulders indifferently and with a smile*

Jackie: I think I died in an avalanche~

*Charlie, Vaggie, Husk, Niffty, and Angel who were there at the moment looked shocked and amazed at her words. Alastor, on the other hand, smiled wider, as if he knew something that they do not know and that he does not want to say it.*

Angel: Ouch... What a way to die.

Jackie: It wasn't painful, I didn't feel anything at all!~ Hahahaha!~

*Jackie laughs cheerfully at everyone's expression*

*Angel can't help but be surprised, along with others, at her cheerful response to the topic of her death*

Husk: How the hell are you so cheerful about your death, darling?

Jackie: My life was so boring~ Party after party~ Killing a mafia boss, killing a bar manager~ And evading the police by pretending to be innocent~ Booooorrrriiiinnnggg~ Now I can do whatever I want!~ Without the police or anyone to care about all the time!~

*Jackie cheerfully cheers in The last two sentences are as if she was released from some prison*

*Husk, Charlie, Angel, Vaggie, and Niffty can't help being shocked by her words and actions. After a few moments of silence, Husk says to her*

Husk: Damn... you're insane.

*Jackie smiles cheerfully as she looks at Husker and folds her hands again behind her back*

Jackie: I know, and thank you, dear~

Husk: I didn't mean it as a compliment.

*Husk says in his usual grumpy manner of speaking while taking another sip from his bottle*

*Jackie pats Husker's head with a small smile*

Jackie: But it's the truth, cat~ So what do you call someone who killed his mother himself!~

*Jackie's smile gets bigger with a mischievous sparkle in her eyes*

*Husk suddenly spits out his drink in surprise and shock just by her words*

Husk: W-what?! Who are you calling a cat, you psycho?! And what did you just say?!

*Jackie would have laughed if it weren't for Hosker accidentally spilling his drink on her. She borrows a napkin from Alastor and cleans herself up with a smile on her face*

Jackie: I said I killed my mother~.. Cat~

Husk: How the hell did this conversation even come to that point in the first place?! And who tf in the world would kill their own mother?!

*Husk looks outraged at Jackie and can't believe she would say such a thing while Alastor continues to smile widely as he looks at them both*

*Jackie's look suddenly turned from playful to serious as she clenched her fist on the handkerchief, but the smile was still there, but it had no meaning*

Jackie: You want to know hm?.. What would you do if you tried to please someone who has controlled your entire life since you were young?.. No playing. No candy, just studying and good grades. Is this the logic of a three-year-old’s life?! She was harsh and uncaring, be polite, Yes mom, stand up straight! Yes, mom! This is forbidden and that is forbidden! Yes, mom! I did not ask her for even a small request! I succeeded in everything she wanted just to try to please her and all she did was ignore me and my success! And when I took courage and asked her for a small request... just a request... she refused and forced me to do what she wanted... again!... again! And again! And again! Until she made me lose my mind!!

*The place froze whenever Jackie got excited, in the end she had recently died and could not control her power well*

*All of them were shocked and horrified by the story. Husk was the most shocked and horrified by her words as he said it with wide eyes*

Husk: You... you killed your own mother because she was just a bit too strict? I'm not saying what she did was right, but still... You killed her! How in the hell can you be smiling like that after doing something like that?!

*The ice stopped spreading and the room temperature started to return to what it was then Jackie starts laughing hysterically*

Jackie: A bit?! Hahahahahaha! He says-he says a bit!! Hahahahaha! My whole life is no match for this hell! Hahahahahaha! Hell have mercy on me about living with this woman! Hahahaha! 20 years! 20 years in hell and restrictions!! Hahaha!!

*Husk continued to be shocked by her words and actions while Niffty, Vaggie, and Charlie just looked horrified and saddened by Jackie's story, Alastor was still keeping his signature smile and Angel just sighed hopelessly*

Husk: This is not funny, you psychopath...

*Husk says with a bit of sympathy in his voice while the laughter continues*
