Love In The Underworld

Ch 7: Nifty's Trust Fall Frenzy

Y/n watched from a distance, fascinated by Nifty's unorthodox approach to trust exercises. Her enthusiasm was infectious, yet alarming. Charlie and the others seemed hesitant to intervene, unsure how to react.

As Nifty continued her trust fall marathon, you decided to step in. "Nifty, maybe that's enough? You're going to hurt yourself!"

Nifty paused, grinning mischievously. "Aww, come on! I'm just getting started! Pain is my love language!"

Y/n approached her cautiously. "I understand that, but we need to prioritize safety. What if you get seriously injured?"

Nifty shrugged. "I'll just heal. I'm a demon, remember? Pain is my favorite!"

Alastor intervened, his voice firm but gentle. "Nifty, dear, perhaps it's time for a different activity. We don't want any... permanent damage."

Nifty pouted, crossing her arms. "Fine, spoilsports. But trust falls is my new favorite game!"

Charlie, ever the peacemaker, suggested, "Hey, how about a group hug? We can work on trust that way."

Alastor recoiled, his expression horrified. "Oh, dear Charlie, please. No touching. Let's just... proceed with a different activity."

Nifty's face lit up. "Ooh, group hug! Yeah, let's do that!"

The group embraced, with Nifty squealing delightfully in the center. Alastor stood aside, observing with a mixture of discomfort and amusement.

As the hug dissipated, Charlie smiled. "See, Nifty? Trust without pain."

Nifty grinned mischievously. "Yeah, yeah. But trust falls are still more fun."

The group laughed, and Alastor shook his head, chuckling.
