"Ahhh..." a replay of Alastor, being struck by Adam's blade on the extermination day was shown on the big screens again for maybe the 10th time, escorted by a low, mocking laughter that belonged to no other than the TV demon himself, apparently very proud of himself."Wait wait, I gotta watch it again!" he said while wiping an imaginary tear away, looking very much amused while hitting the replay button once more, breaking out into exaggerated laughter that echoed in all of Pentegram city as the video played in the background. "Now that's good television!" he added, finally turning off the embarrassing video footage that was recorded by his drones and broadcasted non-stop for the past seven days.
"Now I know we had so much fun!" He spoke with pride, a record of an audience cheering was playing on cue, too fake to fool anyone. "But sadly we have to move on to the next program." the fake audience replied with an unpleased 'aww'.
"Hey no worries! tomorrow at 17:00 sharp we'll be back again with a 3 hours loop of this..." he stopped in order to take a deep, dramatic breath before completing his sentence- "high quality entertainment! stay tuned!" Vox finally finished his broadcast as the intro of Velvette's fashion show replaced him on the big screens, showing overly flamboyant dressed models walking on the runway with a heavy smoked makeup look, finally allowing Vox to lay back in his big fancy armchair and lit up a cigarette with a pleased smile upon his screen."Having fun today, amorcito?" Valentino's teasing voice broke the sudden silence as he entered the room. Vox didn't even bother to turn around, slowly blowing out the grey thick cigarette smoke that made his whole screen foggy; "Today, tomorrow, everyday!" He replied cheerfully, "Ever since that fucker had an appointment with KARMA!" He emphasized that last part, tossing his half finished cigarette in the ashtray. Valentino chuckled softly before approaching his partner and laying against the side of his armchair, "Well it sure is nice to see you so... inspired." he purred.
"What can I say, my show is breaking all of our previous records, all of Pentegram city is watching, the future of hell belongs to the Vees." Vox sounded very confident, the smirk never leaving his screen. "And of course, the cherry on top - Alastor won't leave his tacky hotel. His outrageous excuse of a smile wasn't caught once by my drones since then." he added proudly, but the moth didn't look very convinced."That is absolutely magnificent amorcito, but you know... you can't just broadcast the same footage forever." He reminded; "Eventually sinners will lose interest if you won't give them something new to gossip about."
Vox didn't seem very concerned, "Believe me, there's nothing better than THAT video, have you heard him scream?" he mocked, "He's an embarrassment to overlords."
"I know babe, but you've been broadcasting it for over 7 days already, you don't wanna lose your precious audience don't you?" this simple threat itself was enough for the TV demon to consider his partner's concerns.
"What are you suggesting then?" he asked calmly, finally facing the moth; "You need to catch a new footage of him, maybe show the audience how weak he is, embarrass him a little more." the idea sounded splendid, but not very practical considering the circumstances. "That's impossible, as I said, he's not leaving the hotel." Vox groaned back, "And as you can probably remember, the last time I tried to sneak a camera in there it ended up as a glorious failure, to say the least." he gritted his teeth.The moth thought for a moment before spitting out the first idea in his twisted mind; "Then why don't you sneak YOURSELF in there?" he muttered mischievously.
To be honest, Valentino was never very... sharp, but for once his advice sounded rather... reasonable to Vox, he actually considered it for a moment before his common sense returned to function. "yeah, no. he'll burn me and then torture me with his hentai tentacles." he stated before rising up from his chair, ready to give up on the whole idea, but one thing about Valentino is certain... he can be VERY convincing. That's actually one of his most terrifying talents.
"Not today baby, no... he's weak, probably barely alive." he whispered; "I bet you could finish him with a bat of an eye." his voice sounded all raspy and low.
"Go in there, firstly make sure to catch his pathetic injured body on camera, and then make him beg on his knees." Valentino kept on speaking as he circled the TV demon, walking around him slowly as his words sounded more and more promising.
