"Alright," Husk sighed, leaning over the bar counter. "Listen up, Webs."

It was an average day at the Hazbin Hotel. Charlie Morningstar, the Princess of Hell, and her girlfriend Vaggie were out on a date, and had entrusted Alastor to take care of everyone while they were gone. In true Alastor-like fashion, however, he had retired to his room earlier in the night, speaking to absolutely nobody. If someone had broken in, he likely would have no idea, and the place would be ransacked. 

But Alastor not being all up in everyone's business for once, had the guests of the hotel thrilled to say the least.

 Angel Dust, the porn star spider demon, and Husk, the ex-overlord cat or bird [or whatever species he was... Angel hadn't quite figured it out, but he was pretty sure that Husk was MOSTLY a cat.] were sat at the Hotels bar, sharing a few drinks and small talk, as they often did.

"I'm listening, kitty." Angel replied with a wink and a smirk, which Husk chuckled at in response. 

"Nobody can out-drink me, LEAST of all you. I'm a pro at the whole game. Whiskey, Scotch, Tequila... Light work, no reaction."

"Oh yeah?" Angel sat up a little straighter than before, Husk having his full attention. "Then I guess you wouldn't mind a little bet, then? Since you're so confident you'll win, I mean."

Husk raised an eyebrow, and sighed, his smile remaining on his face. "Okay then, kid. What're we betting?"

"Hm..." Angel crosses his legs, which didn't fit under the counter, so he sat sideways and tapped his chin in thought.

Finally, he lifted his hands in excitement. "I got an idea! Winner gets to take the other person wherever they want, and they HAVE to go, no questions asked!" Angel giggled under his breath, imaging Husk winning and taking him to some off-the-wall run-down pub, with old fuckers screaming at some football game on a box TV in the corner.

Husk hummed at the thought and shrugged. "Alright. It's a deal then. But if there's even a CHANCE of you winning, you ain't taking me to some sleazy porn studio, capiche?"

Angel laughed softly, nodding. "Wouldn't dream of it, babe."

Husk smirked, his left ear flicking. He grabbed two bottles of some mixed concoction of various alcohol off the shelf behind him, handing one to Angel. 

"Alright, legs. You're on."
