The smell of pizza fills the apartment. Meliodas goes back to sit on the couch, seeming much more interested in Lizzy than he is in hearing about what happened.
Lizzy consoles you as you try to choke out the whole story, and comforts you when you break down while telling it. Pazuzu helps, but he seems wary of Meliodas.
Dr. Ban's irritating jingle plays on your laptop loudly enough to make everyone jump.
You wipe away your tears.
"Not-Zeldris was probably Grayroad," Pazuzu says, "an elite demon warrior who can shapeshift. I'm sure Ereshkigal and Hecate will be furious when they hear what Estarossa has done."
You didn't think you'd be hungry, but you don't hesitate when Lizzy offers you some pizza. The others dig in as you scarf down three slices in under a minute. It's a good thing Lizzy bought an extra large.
Meliodas introduces himself to your human friend, and Lizzy introduces herself to the demon before she launches into a full interrogation mode.
"Do you know Zeldris?" Lizzy asks.
"I'm his older brother."
"Who is this Estarossa guy? He sounds like a dick."
"He's my younger brother."
"You know, I thought I smelled middle child syndrome when Estarossa came in here," you joke.
"So you're all... The Demon King is your father?"
Meliodas nods.
The door creaks open and you tense. Meliodas stands.
"Captain!" says the tall stranger who is wearing an awful doctor costume and... oh shit it's really him. How did he find you?
"Ban!"
Meliodas throws "Dr. Ban" out the hall window and they play fight all the way to the ground.
Lizzy laughs.
"Was that Dr. Ban from those awful spam ads?" she asks.
"I think so."
"Dr. Ban? Back in my day he was called Ban the Fox Sin of Greed, or Bandit Ban, or Undead Ban" Pazuzu says "The old names have a better ring to them if you ask me."
"How could he be alive after all these centuries?" Lizzy asks.
"Well, he is immortal."
Outside, Ban and Meliodas arm wrestle and leave a crater in the parking lot of your building.
