"Hey Mox! Found a home. "

"Yes." The portal is close behind them. Walk past Blitz as they held the book. "Change that safe code."

"I will but tomorrow. All of us tuckered out. Just waiting for you." Yawn as point to the lobby. "Loonie, Mil is waiting in the van. Stolas, his daughter went back home."

Along with telling him as well to get a better safe. Or some kind of alarm if someone takes the book again.

"Well, didn't have to wait for me." Roll their eyes and walked past them.

"Hey-

"The book coming home with me."

"Not that but dammit. But um are you annoyed about the glasses?" Sees them turn with the crack glasses.

"Slightly along with giving a late mission to find a doghouse." Then raised my eyebrow. "By the way why you still wearing that wig?"

"I look good with hair. Can't you tell?" Grin and brush your hair back.

"I guess." Frown slightly.

"What you mean you guess!"

"Look fine with or without hair." Shrugged and kept walking.

"Well, duh I can pull off anything!" Follow behind them and took the wig off. Threw it in the closet that label disguises/random pile closet.

Gave him a small shrug. The pair walked out of the office, then locked up. Then we went to the elevator. It was quiet between the pair.

"Rattles coming back tomorrow."

"Oh, so he done?"

"No, I just told him what happened today."

"Didn't have too. We handle that shit well. Hell, you got a freebie today."

"I knock out 28 humans with random objects."

"Sounds like a swell day to me!"

Soon, we got off the elevator and went outside to head to the parking lot. Millie, Loona interacting. It was a bit different than before. Mat, not seem much but see little differences. Like Loona actually taking a picture post with Millie.

"Send that."

"Just follow me to get it."

"My contact right there and I do follow."

"Fine."

"You two ready." Blitz walks over to the pair, holding the book securely in their coat.

"Yep!"

"Alright let's drop you two off."

All four were inside the van.

Moxxie texting Striker to tell him all good now. As they held the book close. Turn to see Millie yawning and stretch her arms by his side. Look back to Blitz singing way too loud and out of tune. Loona looks annoyed but just staring at her phone. Sees her trying to not smile now and then. Either from Blitz foolishness or whatever being posted on her phone.

"Here we are M&M!"

"Thanks Blitz!"

"Thanks."

"Anytime! See you two tomorrow! Early! Will need to figure out a better code for the safe."

"We got it. No, body getting this pretty." Millie taps the book that Moxxie holding.

"Damn straight. Uh Moxxie glasses- "

"I'll take care of it." Wave them off. "Go before the rats try to steal the van."

"Like to see them try!"

"See yeah tomorrow, Loona!"

"Whatever old lady, fatty." Actually, waves a little at them. Then held on to seat for dear life as Blitz sped away.

Millie, Moxxie get inside, then head to their apartment floor.

"Don't you have an extra pair?" Millie points at the glasses as she goes to the kitchen.

"Yeah, but I can still use these for a while." Pull them over and look them over.

"Could try and super glue the pieces together?"

"Probably once the pieces keep cracking and falling out." Check them over. Hear her giggle and glance at her. Sees her holding a bottle as she was smiling at him. "What?"

"It just crazy how different you seem to look without your glasses on." Pour her a drink in her cup.

"Good or bad."

"Always good just different." The gap tooth imp woman grinned. "You could get contacts."

"I like glasses. Not like I really need them 24/7." Twirled them around. Then put them back on. Shake their head no when she offering a second cup.

"There is eye surgery."

"I'm not that desperate." Put them back on. Then glance at the book. "I'm going to head to bed."

"Same after a shower. Today was wild enough. Night Mox."

"Night Mil-Mil." Walk to their own room and close the door. Lock it up. Walk over to sit on the bed. Look down at the IMP book and check the codes. Fix little things here and there. Shouldn't be a problem after that hopefully. Put it in the inventory for now.

Stood back up and change.

"Oh! Hello Puppe- "

"Uggie got a home now." Walk out the portal as they are now in Stolas kitchen. In their cloak and mask now.

"Oh, that's um good. Does Blitz know?" Smiling awkwardly as they opened the fridge. Still in their clothes from when they went to LA. Not long ago. Like really just came back an hour now.

"Yes."

"The book?"

"With me till we make a new number or better security."

"That's good."

"Where little Frogmouth?"

"In her room to get change. We're about to watch some TV together. It's been a long day."

"It sure was throwing junk off the roof."

"Yes, um I apologize for not bringing the book. Well, you could have close it."

"Then would lead to questions." Watch him pull some steak out to feed their Venus Flytrap. Glance around and notice a few boxes in the kitchen. "Stuff for the pigeon."

"Sadly yes. The truck didn't have enough room. Even after trying to break stuff to make room." Let out annoyed hoot huffed. "Hopefully I can finish the rest of this tomorrow but that is a dream. That woman just wants to make it difficult."

"How little Frog feeling about this?"

"Well, as you saw from taking the book. It's different for her. But were talking about it as much we can. It's the next step I'm concern about."

"The divorcing process?"

"Not just that but," Shook their heads a bit. "I really don't want to think about it right now."

"Alright."

"Any who. Care to join us?"

"Don't want to interrupt. Plus, she probably will think I'm here right now to scold or something about the book."

Stolas let out an awkward laugh. "Right bad timing."

"Besides it your two days. Correct?"

"Yes." Head down a little with a sadden look. "I can't believe I forgotten today."

"What was it supposed to be?" Was very confused at the message Stolas sent him when they got back to Hell.

"Azathoth's Tears."

"What that?"

"Oh, I never to you about it? Here let me explain it to you." Hoot giggles

"You done it before."

"Fair, enough. Let me explain it like how told Octavia when she was a little owlet. In the great expanse of the nether there exists boundless amounts of magnificent phenomenon the great brilliance of an exploding star, the nimble dance of space dust through a nebula but once every one thousand years our corner of reality is treated to an incredible sight from the deep eldritch recesses of the cosmos the tears of a forgotten colossus begin to fall. Tears made of the hopes and dreams of every living thing that never came to be. Condensed and sent shooting across the night sky in a dazzling final display. What appears to mortal beings as a meteor shower, we can see for what it is? That is Azathoth's Tears." Stolas sighs happily. He forgot to do a show like before!

"I bet that would have been nice to watch."

"Indeed, but we miss it because of me." Look down a little but then smile. "But I'm going to find a way to make it up."

Stare at him with a head tilt. "I kind of have an idea."

"You do?"

"Yeah." Glance back at the doorway. "I'll leave you two be. Will talk about it."

"Puppet."

"Yeah?"

"Are you ever going to tell the others?" Watch them stay very still. "I can understand why you never told me. But shouldn't they know. At least your two friends? Wouldn't it be easier than keep slipping away."

Small silence between the pair.

"Striker is one thing. The others. Almost want to smack myself with such foolish things. Just get it out. Let them know. Won't treat you different." Glance at their hand. "It makes things complicated. Even your kid doesn't know the full truth."

"I do want her to know but," Touch their shoulder, "I do think the other deserved it first. It was well rude on my part how I found out."

"That true Frogmouth." Look at the hand on their shoulder. "Go be with your little Frogmouth."

"There are so many better nicknames than this." Small pout.

"Not going to change it anytime soon." Open a portal and walk through it. Wave another goodbye at Stolas and the portal close behind. Look back to see they are in space. Float around till they landed on debris. Sat down a bit.

When does one tell another you aren't fully normal? At least normal of hell standard.

Madre, Doc. Accident portal with their string.

Stolas. A rude accident during a terrible time who threw up afterwards.

Yeah, they aren't liking what the next accident might look like.

Small sigh.

Stood back up and started to jump around. Now and then spots a star to fix. They should be relieved they haven't found any of those poison stars. Yet, it just makes them anxious. Which is nothing new there.

Now they just made the anxiety worse as they began to think over other topics. Why can't these topics just scatter off fast like an asteroid passing by a planet!

BAM!

FUCK!

"You look like you were hit by an asteroid?" Millie blinked as she stares at Moxxie by the stove. They look downright exhausted from the bones. She jumps when they smack the pancake with the spatula.

"I was."

"What was that?"

"Orange juice or apple juice?"

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Done!

Orane or Apple?

Any questions?

Until next time.

Bye, bye!
