Last night, the sun didn't set. It fell. Crystal snaps her attention towards William, "DUDE WHAT THE FUCK?!"

William backs up, holding up his hands in defense, "Sarah scared me with her pet rats! The humans won't overreact right??" William questions, desperately trying to make Crystal accept his mistake. Crystal then looks over to Sarah, who was putting the deers to sleep, "Don't worry~ The humans don't care~ We're gods we got this~" She says sleepily, dragging out her last words.

Crystal puts her hands over her forehead in a triangular motion, sighing deeply, "Why am I forced to work with all you stupid, unintelligent, small minded..." She goes on, naming synonyms.

Gara takes the elevator down to the Earth wing, skipping out with her galaxy hair flowing behind her, "Who dropped the sun~?" She sings, sickeningly sweet, to the best of 'Here comes the Sun'.

William, who was leaning on his desk, focusing immensely hard on raising the moon, "Accidentally, I did, but give me a sec I'm working.."

Gara skips past Crystal and leans over William, "Harvey is complaining to me that the humans are freaking out at how fast the sunset was~ What should I tell him, hmm~? Why don't you go, huh~? Who's better to explain this, than the one who's done it themselves~? I'm too busy trying to form constellations~" Gara hums.

Suddenly, a low growl comes from the very last floor. Gara's fast to skip out, Crystal sips her coffee, already knowing who it is. William starts to shake.
"WHO THE HELL. DROPPED THE SUN." Satan screeches, Running up the stairs at lightening speed.

"William did, Sir. He's already assigned a meeting with Harvey." Crystal explains, her voice growing monotonous by the end of her sentence.

"DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW PACKED HELL IS?! WE HAVE FUCKING LINES! LINES!!! STRETCHING FROM MILES AND MILES!! HUMANS THINK ITS THE END OF THE WORLD! BLOODY HELL!!" Satan shouts.

Crystal, who's headache was growing to be quite painful, taps Satan's shoulder, "As I said, Sir. William already has to deal with Harvey- Right now actually," William gets up from his chair with a blank expression, "So you may call for him after. Causing a scene is worsening my headache, So I'm gonna have to ask you to leave." Crystal points to the door as Satan storms out.

"When is my shift over? Can I leave?" Crystal begs, getting up from her chair and grabbing her diamond jeweled purse. Her heels clack as she calmly walks out the door.

She stops by the entrance to wave, "Good day, Peasants! I know return to the human realm!" She flips them off as she turns to leave.

William already knows today is not a good day.
