Chapter Text

“Congratulations Miss Mayday, you gave birth to a beautiful baby boy!” 

There she was, succubus popstar Verosika Mayday alone in the delivery room, just having a baby and her imp boyfriend is nowhere in sight. The miracle of childbirth is something she was told she should be happy about, but she struggles to even smile. The happy nurse who congratulated her, handed her child. She take a look at her newborn for the first time, 

“Nine months in my womb making me suffer…” She pauses as her baby looks at her with a small smile.

“And he looks like his stupid dad! With His stupid but cute smile…” Verosika has no choice, but to cry. The baby is almost the splitting image of the imp just with skin more like hers. He is Blitz's child, but Blitz doesn't even know he exists. 

“I wish he was here to meet his son.” Verosika couldn't hold it anymore just bawl her eyes out. As she cries, her newborn son just looks at her before crying himself. 

The sympathetic nurse took the baby from the crying exhausted succubus, “Please get some rest sweetie.” She is slowly rocking the child till he comes down. 

“No mother should be handling this all alone.” said the nurse, who Verosika now notices is an imp succubus hybrid, like her now sleeping baby. 

“Thank you, miss..?” Verosika said as she tried to wipe away her tears.

“Ruby and It's my job, I've been doing this for years.” Ruby the nurse said. “Before I go, have you thought about the name for the little one?”

“Yes Blazin.”

“Alright then Blazin Mayday” Ruby said as she look to the baby, “let's give your momma some time alone. He will be in the nursery." She said then finally left the room.

Once they left, Verosika finally could relax after these painful few hours. Giving birth sucks and she doesn't want to do it again. She wasn't supposed to be alone, her moms were supposed to be with her, but haven't shown up. Would Blitz show up if he had known she was pregnant?

"Would he care?"

She worried about her new life as a single mother, but pushed those thoughts out of her mind to try to fall asleep.

A few hours later after sleeping, Verosika finally got out of bed to go look for her baby. Thanks to the same nurse, she found him in the nursery among the other newborns sleeping peacefully. 

She sees them, other parents. All these newborns have parents that are happy couples, new and old, all here for their kids, talking and bragging, preparing to love and care for them. Her son only has her. She didn't want that.

“Blitz…” Verosika mumble to herself. 

“Rossi! Verosika!” Her Mom and Momma, Venus and Brenda called out to her. They are two older yet still very attractive succubi, many hospital goers were at awe at their beauty as they passed them. 

“We are so sorry Rossi, we got struck in traffic and..” Brenda said “Sadly we miss the birth..”

Her moms are worried, Verosika doesn't like to worry them. “It's okay, me and the baby are alright."

They look a bit relieved then Venus said “darling, why did you leave your room? You gave birth a few hours ago.” 

“I’m fine, mom I promise. I just needed to see him."

At least she got her moms to help her raise Blazin. She won’t be there for Blazin most of the time because her career is still important to her. In the public eye, Verosika mayday, rising pop star gone to rehab after her break up with her imp boyfriend Blitz and growing alcohol problems. In truth, she went to stay with her moms for 9 months to hide her pregnancy. Also she has been sober for 9 months and can’t wait to start drinking again. (She is not telling her moms that).

“So you name our grandchild Blazin then?” Venus asked. 

“Yeah…. I got the idea from Blitz. Blazin looks a lot like him.” Verosika said as her mind wander through thoughts of her ex.

“Hopefully he won’t end up like him…” Venus added while Brenda looked taken aback. 

Verosika hurts by those words, looks at the sleeping Blazin then back at her moms.

“Mom, Momma, did I make a mistake?” she questioned them.

“Not telling Blitz?” Brenda said. 

“Having a child with the imp?” Venus sneered. Her wife just looks at her.

“I….I don’t really know.” Verosika says sadly.

“Rossi…” Brenda hugs her daughter.

“I really wish he was here. I tried calling but no answer. I asked around, but no one saw him. The only thing I know is that he was in wrath based on where my credit card was maxed out.”

"I want Blitz." 

“Good riddance better that he not be involved!” Venus snapped. Verosika look nervously, while Brenda is really annoyed. “I doubt that imp would ever be a good parent.”

“Venus, you don’t mean that.” Brenda said trying to reason with her.

“Brenda, that fire toad…” 

“Venus!” Brenda hisss. “His name is Blitz. You met him.”

“I was unimpressed.” She is reminded of the hour long one sided conversation she had with Blitz about horses. 

“Verosika I love you, but you do realize dating that guy wasn’t a good idea.”

“I…”

“Venus stop it” Brenda is mad now.

“And Brenda you got to understand that… imp had no problem robbing and then ghosting our daughter, why would he ever be a good parent yet alone a good husband!”

"Venus!"

Verosika looks down at the ground. Feeling bad for loving Blitz.

“Well there must be a reason for his actions, he and Verosika were so happy together for these past 2 years.” Brenda says like to stand up for Blitz. Unlike her wife, Brenda likes Blitz and enjoys their horse talks.

“I doubt there can be a good reason.”

“Of course there be.”

“Then what? What can be a good enough reason for any of this??” Venus yelled. 

 “I don't know.” Brenda just shrugs as Venus just looks at her.

“Hey Rossi, what do you think?”

 “Rossi?”

“Verosika?”

They both look at their daughter who has been really quiet. Verosika was looking at the sleeping Blazin. In the middle of the nursery, looking so peacefully unaware of his mother's worries, grandmothers’ arguments and his father's absence. 

“I wish I didn’t tell Blitz I love him, maybe he would have stayed.”

“Verosika… I’m sorry.” Venus is now regretting what she said.

“We can’t help who we fall in love with. Look who I fall for.” Brenda told her daughter.

“Brenda…”

“What I mean is you shouldn’t feel bad for loving him, right?” She said while holding her wife's hand.

“Right. Sorry darling.” Venus added. 

“It's fine mom.”

“…. I just hope I’ll be good enough for Blazin.”

Verosika started to cry as her moms hug her.

Verosika stayed close to her child for the next few months until she had to go back to being a popstar. She didn't have to worry too much, her moms raised well with no issues and no doubt Blazin will be the same. What worries her is when Blazin is old enough to ask about his father.

About a year later, Verosika, who was back from performing, volunteered to watch Blazin for a few hours when she was visiting. While her moms are unsure, she convinced them to let her watch her son for a few hours. She didn’t have to do this, but since she was already gone so long, she wanted to do more for Blazin.

Feeding, napping and light playing with Blazin was fine just until he needed to be changed.

“Ugh I hate changing diapers..” She said as she threw the old diaper in the trash. 

She turned back to Blazin, "Sweetie I got something for you. It's a gift from daddy."  

It is not technically a gift, it is just a small horse plushie that Blitz left behind. She figures he is not coming back for it, so just gives it to their son.

But before she could give the plush to Blazin, he started to cry again. 

“No, please don't cry.” She said as she tried to rock him to sleep. Blazin still kept crying.

“Please. If only Momma was here, she could sing to you like she did with me. Wait.”

She just realized she could sing to him, but didn't remember any lullaby. (Most songs she know are from from child friendly). She kept rocking him until she thought of a song that could be fine. A song from an anime she watched. (Didnt finished, but did like the music).

🎶 You wanna soar so high

Til you defy all creation

Into the pure, blue light

Fly away, fly away into the sky 

You were young and naive

With no concept of grief

But in a moment of doubt

You would learn you were weak

And when the words wouldn't reach

You were left to retreat 

Into a dream where nothing could touch you

Open your eyes 

You're wide awake 

Will you decide 

Or hesitate?

Because a dream can tie you down

Or give you wings

You wanna soar so high

That you defy explanation 

Beyond the clouds on high

Fly away, fly away into the sky

You gotta soar so high 

Until you find what you're chasin’

And how I hope you try

Fly away, fly away into the sky

Fly away, fly away into the sky

Fly away, fly away into the sky 🎶 

She looks at Blazin who finally fell to sleep.

“Oh fuck it works. I should finished that show." She thought as she slowly put him into his crib. She also gave Blazin his horse plushie.

"I hope he like it."

“We're home!” Brenda cheer as she open the front door.

“Shhh!” Verosika shush her mother. 

“We're home.” Brenda whispers as she and Venus enter the home carrying a whole bunch of shopping bags.

"Brenda help me." Venus plead with her wife before looking at Verosika. 

“Is everything alright?”

“Mom, momma I got him to sleep.” Verosika said a bit too proudly.

“That's so nice sweetie.” Brenda said happily as she hold her hands together. 

“Glad you were able to handle him on your own.” Venus added as she got to put all the bags down.

“Yeah, I still hate changing diapers though.”

“Wait until he starts solid food.” Venus and Brenda laugh as verosika cringed.

"We spent over hundreds of dollars on diapers alone! Hahaha!"

Not wanting to hear more of that, Verosika open her mouth and blurted “Hey, I want to tell Blitz about Blazin!”

Her moms stopped laughing and look at her. Brenda look at Venus then at Verosika and say,

“Are you sure?” 

“Yes. Despite our issues, he should at least know of his son.”

“Also pay for child support.” Venus added. 

“That too.”

"If you’re sure about this Rossi, we will support you." Brenda went to hold her daughter hands.

"Thanks mom, momma." Verosika smiled. 

She then help her moms put all the stuff they bought, mostly baby things (like diapers). Verosika stayed a little while more just until Blazin woke up. 

"Your mommy has to go now, Blazin." Brenda told the baby as she took him out of the crib.

"Bye-bye Blazin." Verosika says as she wave to him by the door.

"Ma."

Everyone froze.

"Ma. Ma." Blazin keep repeating the words. 

Verosika ran to him and held him. I love you sweetie.”

"Ma." He spoke joyfully. Verosika just smiled at her son. 

“When I see daddy again, I'll tell him about you. We'll talk like adults and we will handle things.”

"We might be a family."

A few years later when Verosika was going to the office where she will be working for spring break, she find the man who been looking for.

"VEROSIKA!"

“Blitzo.” 

"It's him, a few years since I last saw him, but Blitz is the same as he always has been. He owns a business that is at the same building I was going to be at. Of course the first thing he do instead of asking how I been or something... He started to insult me."

“I’m surprised they let your fat ass outta rehab. I can see you’re still a drunken whore, clutching onto that beelzejuice bottle like it’s the last cock in hell!”

"I can’t believe he said that. Is that really what he was thinking of me after leaving that night? If he wants to act like that, fine I’ll better do the same."

“They let me out because I’m still famous”

I never really went there, only showed up there to maintain my cover,

“and rehab is for sad, loser wash-ups!!”

I did met his sister Barbie there once, she cussed me out for just knowing Blitz and telling me and Blitz to go fuck ourselves.

“So, your sister says hi.”

She still wonder why they have to meet like this. Just because she told Blitz love him, he ghosted her for years, leaving her alone with Blazin (not that Blitz knows that yet). Verosika wanted answers, but they just argued about a fricking parking lot, now she just wants to knock Blitz down a bit.

“Aw, you mad, Blitzo?” She cooed. He hated the o. “You're gonna runoff, leaving someone else to pay for the hotel room and steal their car.. Blitz join in. “And run 3 rings to wrath and back and max my credit cards on shitty horse riding lessons?" At least he knows what he did, but what does he have to say about it? Can I at least get a sorry?

Blitz stomp.

"I’m not getting a sorry from him, am I?" She not sure whether to be annoyed or saddened.

 “God dammit whore, you will not let that go!”

I’m so sorry, Blazin. I’m not telling him!

She flip him off as she left“ choke on a sandpaper cock”

He doesn’t deserve to know Blazin.

Verosika struggled what to think about Blitz based on his current actions, maybe some time to think maybe they can try to have a normal conversation maybe?

"Damnit. Why did I attack Blitz's underling? Why did I agree to this stupid demon duel? And why did I throw my perfectly good flask still filled with some beelzejuice?!?!

I was still reeling about my argument with Blitz, so when that imp walked into our office talking nonsense (I honestly muted him out) and honestly it was mainly my posse who tried to get with him, I just watched. Then Blitz stormed in, challenging me for the parking spot. I should just ignore it, but I wasn’t thinking! Why didn’t her bodyguard Vortex stop them? Now there is a giant mutant fish attacking (at least that female imp killed), but if it gets out, I'm in trouble."

“Blitzo!”

“Oh perfect. That must be the whores?”

"Why must he be like this? Did he ever really care for me?" Verosika tries to stay cool while he talks back to her.

“That was handled rather… obvious, don’t you think?”

“I don’t think this belonged to any of us?” The other imp worker holds my flask.

A fucking waste of booze.

“Would be ashame if anyone found out you were behind a giant monster in the human world”

 “Oh satan. You all be so fucked!” What's up with him?

“Yeah well you three nasty ass gremlins will be in some deep shit for not being in disguises!” I’m not trying be a racist or something, but still i don't get why aren’t they more concerned about being seen, they are risking their and my lives because of this challenge.. 

The first imp worker He has faceplants. “A human called me a possum! I am not a possum!”

Is he drunk or something?

“You know, we could keep this little b movie scene on the down low if you agree to let us use the Parking space?” Blitz said so smugly. 

Why is it like this now? He was a good guy back then, but now? What happened?

“Fine.” She is not fine, Verosika struggling not to scream or burst out crying.

Why? Why? I want to cry. Why did he stop loving me?

“We fucking won!”

“Fuck yeah!

“In your face, bitch!” Don't cry. Don't cry.

"Tex!!" She called out to her bodyguard who was talking to a goth girl.

“Come on, loonie tooney!” 

"Loonie?" Verosika now remembers that goth girl is that young hellhound she saw with Blitz’s other employees. "Please tell me that my joke about the amber alert isn’t true?"

“Who’s she? Your new girlfriend!?” She demanded trying not to sound like she about to burst into tears.

“Eww no!” Blitz said angrily.

Oh thanks satan.

 “She is my daughter! Back off bitch!” 

"What…" she just froze while Blitz was about to enter his portal.

Daughter.

Daughter. You can’t have a daughter.

What about Blazin?

“waaaaah!!!”

Verosika started crying. She couldn’t hold it in anymore, Blitz who was there, feel an extreme amount of guilt. 

Vortex and the posse ran towards her, the guilt ridden Blitz was going to something, but the angry looks of the other succubi convinced him to leave.

"Verosika?"

"V are you ok?"

"Don’t listen to that imp!"

The girls try comforting Verosika, telling her it alright but Vortex interrupts. “Everyone we got to leave!” Soon enough a group of police arrived. 

“Take Verosika home! We'll deal with the pigs!” Her friend Kiki yells at Vortex. 

Kiki and the others distract the police while vortex uses their Asmodean Crystal to take her back to hell. Verosika was still crying when Tex spoke.

“Boss, are you OK?” Tex said in concern.

Just take me home please? She spoke softly. Tex just nodded and did what she asked. He took her to her car, driving out of the parking space to the cheers of the female imp employee. Neither notice the concern looks of Blitz and his daughter watching them leave.

At her apartment, Verosika, after calming down enough, video called her momma. She needs her advice and someone to vent. 

“Hi Rossi?” Brenda said cheerfully.

“Hey momma, can we talk?” 

“Is everything alright, Rossi?” Brenda asks in concern, noticing her daughter had been crying. 

“I saw him…Blitz.”

“Oh and what happens?” Brenda now more worried. 

“Mom, he has a daughter!”

“What?”

“He got over me so quickly, why can't I, momma?”

“Did you talk to him? Tell him about Blazin?"

“No, how could I?”

“Rossi sweetie,”

“Momma, Blitz really is different now, he just was so plain rude to me now? 

"Veros..."

I don’t think I can trust that man with own son?” Verosika interrupts her mother. 

“Verosika.” Brenda said her name not her nickname. She knows her momma is being serious right now. "Calm down and think."

"Sorry."

All he know you been drinking and partying since the break-up, he probably figured she already got over him too."

"But I haven't" Verosika pauses to let her momma continue. 

"You always act tough in front of everybody, looking like a girl that takes no shit from other demons, but really you've been hiding so much pain inside. You really do loved Blitz, despite how he hurts you. Everyone is saying that you should just move on but it's not as easy as they think it is." Brenda took a deep breath, 

"I dealt with a lot of heartbreak in my life until I met your mom."

"Momma." Verosika says sadly, feeling bad for making her think like this.

"While I'm disappointed with how Blitz is being towards,  I know both of you still need to act like adults and talk."

"Yeah."

"Anyway, Rossi, you really liked this guy, can't just forget about it. Go talk to him to talk and listen. If he wants to be a part of your life again, that's amazing. If not, that is his decision. Regardless, you two need closure."

"You're right." Verosika said admittedly surprised by this talk with her momma. She chose to call Brenda over Venus since she was the more chill parent. 

"Mother's tend to be. And eventually you will too." Brenda chuckled. 

"Ma?" 

 Verosika heard a familiar voice "Is that Blazin?"

"Ma."

Brenda turn the phone to show the now four years old son Blazin. Now looking like a mini Blitz except his little wings and messy white hair. 

"Hi sweetie!" Seeing her son definitely lightens her mood.

"Ma. Stickers." He blurted out as he pointed to his cheeks where she saw 2 heart stickers on them.

"Like you?"

"Like me?"

"Yeah."

"Aww.." Verosika love how much of a sweetheart Blazin is. She smile as when back to finish talking to her mother. 

“Next time I'll talk to him, mama, I promise.”

"That's all I ask, do you want to keep talking to Blazin for a bit?" Brenda asked, knowing well it will help her daughter cheer up.

"Yes I do."

The next time verosika saw Blitz again at Ozzie’s, where she was going to perform and Blitz …was on a date. When Fizzarolli called Blitz out, she just had to join in.

 🎶 Blitz-o?

I used to date him.

"Oh Verosika, you're here." Blitz rudely interrupt while his date who just sat there confused.

I'd stroke and I'd fellate him (fellate him, fellate him)

Yeah, but when it was my turn (my turn, my turn) 

He did no reciprocatin (what a dick-bag)

A selfish imp in the sheets 

And just as bad in the streets 

A reckless heart-breaking freak!! 🎶 

I saw guilt and pain in his eyes, good. Maybe he deserves it for what he did right?  

Her mind is conflicted as she looks from Asmodeus and Fizzarolli song to Blitz’s employees being romantic towards each other then back to Blitz and his date leaving Ozzie’s. For a brief moment she caught his eyes looking back at her as he left. 

He’s looking guilty, well because he is. Why can’t I enjoy it? Yeah I didn’t have to ruin his date, she didn't have to sing about being bad in med. He was far from terrible, he just kept wanting to top( like it seems he can't do anything else). And again all this could have been avoided…. Why did she get involved again? She could just actually ignore him and do her performance, but she did promise…

"Wait? Damn. I forgot again.” Verosika mentality slap herself for again not trying to just talk with Blitz. And after promising her mama she would try to talk with him.

She’ll try again next time to talk with him. It is not a good time right now.

Chapter Text

 It's Halloween night and Verosika was at her moms home, getting ready for her party tonight. She had already finished spending the day with Blazin, so she was in a great mood. 

“Ma!”

“Ma!”

Blazin called out to Verosika as she was now ready to leave for the night. She walked to the living room where her son was and smiled, “Yeah sweetie!”

“Me a horse!”

“You are.” She smiled. Her son was in a cute horse costume. So adorable that she quickly took a picture with her phone. 

“Are you excited to go trick or treating with grandma?”

“Yeah.” He smiled. “You go?”

“Me go? Sorry sweetie, I got to a grown-up party.” She said, trying not to make him upset. 

“Oh.”

“Don't worry I'll come see you in the morning ok?” Blazin already gets sad when she doesn't spend time with him or needs to leave. It was fine when he was younger, but now she needs to remind him that she will be there for him.

“Ok.” He smiled.

Brenda, wearing a sexy cowgirl costume, walked up to them “Say Bye to mommy, Blazin.” 

“Bye bye.” Blazin waved his hands as he ran to the front door.

“Bye sweetie. Bye mom.”

“Have fun at your.. party, Rossi.” Brenda said with some concern before opening the fun door and leaving with Blazin.

And like that, my son in an adorable horse costume is going trick or treating with my momma in a sexy cowgirl costume (why is she even wearing that? Why did mom let her leave the house like that?) I got to go to my house in the human world where my Anti Blitzo party is being held. It started as a small gathering of people hurt by him, but now it turned into a massive house party for almost 5 years. Almost as old as Blazin….

“Well mom I'm gonna head to the party…”

“We need to talk.” Venus said stopped her daughter from leaving. 

“Oh Ok.” Verosika said, confused.

“About the party.”

“What wrong with it?”

“You're holding it again.”

“Yeah.”

 It’s been years.” Venus persists, trying to get her daughter to see her point. 

“What I'm helping people, mom! Blitz hurt them just like me. They need my support.” She defended her actions. When she first started to search for Blitz to tell him he’s father, but instead she found other demons who like her, heartbroken.

“Are they?” Venus questioned.

“They are,” she insisted. 

“Or do they just want to be with you?” Venus said. “You are a popular pop star, anyone can claim they have been hurt by him to get an invite.”

“No, I trust them, they are victims!”

“Where’s their proof? Have you ever asked them?”

“I didn't need to.” Verosika didn't like how her mom was acting. “Come on mom, you never hosted parties to bash on someone you hate when you were a star?” Verosika argued to her mother. 

Venus was a popstar in the past and she was the main inspiration for Her daughter to become one as well. 

“No. I wrecked hotel rooms, I destroyed their public image, I won't keep hating someone for years!!!”

“You didn't like Blitz before, why are you defending him now?” Verosika demanded.

“I'm not.” Her mother said bluntly. “Why aren’t you?”

Verosika paused before saying, “Well because he abandoned me and Blazin!”

“He doesn't know about his son! It's been five years and you haven't told him. You claimed you wanted him in Blazin, but you haven't tried to tell him.”

“I have, the other times haven't been the right moment.” It's been months since that night at Ozzie’s and she had no luck talking with Blitz besides getting the succubi there to keep tabs on him and his group. 

“Then when is the right moment?”

“Soon, mom. I promise.” Verosika pleaded while her mother only sighed.

“Verosika please, you need to cancel the party.”

“Mom, it's too late. The party is happening now.”

“You can’t keep doing this. Think about the consequences!”

“What consequences? Momma doesn’t have a problem with my parties.” 

“Brenda wouldn’t say anything about it so as not to upset you. I didn't want to say anything, but we're your parents and you need to see that your parties had been a terrible idea. It feels like you're ignoring your own issues and bringing others into your pain in a very unhealthy way, disregarding that you've got a problem that could be avoided if you and Blitz sit down and talk.” Venus said. 

“Are you serious, Mom? I…” Verosika snapped because being interrupted by her mom again. 

“What would Blazin think when he’s older? His mother holds parties about hating his father instead of telling his father about him?”

“I…..” Verosika has no answer. 

“Well, Verosika?”

“….” Verosika just stayed silent, tears started to form in her eyes. 

“Verosika?” Venus, now concerned, was about to touch her daughter’s shoulder, but she moved away.

“I have to go now.” Verosika said.

“Verosika.” Venus whispered, worried she pushed too hard.

“I promise we'll talk about it tomorrow. Bye mom” Verosika blurted out as she touched her asmodean crystal.

“Verosika, wait!” Venus shouted as her daughter had already entered her portal to earth.

“Mom is wrong. The party is helping others, it's helping me, right? Anyway Blitz hasn't found out about my parties. It's not like he would just crash it, he's not that stupid.” Verosika thought as she wiped away her tears before entering the party. 

 “He really is that stupid. How the hell no one found out he was here. I guess I should try to talk to him. What mom said is still on my mind.”

“So an apology tour, huh?” She asked, not looking at him. I wasn't the first one you went to. “You got a lot of balls coming here, Blitzo.”

“Yeah, I know, everyone here hates me.”

“Yep. That's the point. Dumbass.” Fuck why did I loved this idiot. 

“So what, you’re waiting for your apology?” Blitz smirked. He held his hands together mockingly. “Well, I'm sorry for always telling it like it is, sister.”

Verosika seethed. “Oh fuck you, you little prick.”

“What? I'm just being honest! I'm sorry for dumping ya! Sorry for not falling head over heels for you!” Blitz shouted. “Or that guy! Or fucking Dennis! Or anyone at this STUPID FUCKING PARTY!”

Why can't you see how much you hurt us? “Oh, you are so fucking shitty!” Verosika remarked with a forced laugh. “Do you hear yourself?”

 Blitz turned around to face her. “Everyone’s shitty! Hello? We live in Hell! Why am I all of a sudden the bad guy just because I suck at relationships?”

Blitz. “Are you expecting… sympathy?” Verosika flicked her cigarette away. She spoke in a mocking voice, “Aww poor Bwitz, finalwwy having to own that his actions affect other people’s fee fees.” She scoffed, “Bitch, please,” before turning to lean against the barrier. 

Verosika scowled. “How do you think I felt when the fun guy I was dating decided to just… bail on me because I made the shitty mistake of saying, ‘I love you?’ Ugh! It was the most embarrassing feeling. To be vulnerable for once, thinking I found ‘The one’.” 

And you just left me behind at a motel, stealing my car and my credit cards for shitty horse-riding lessons… just to hide your stupid fear of intimacy! No matter how many times I say it, I still can't believe it. Sigh. 

She glared. “Blitz, you really know how to send a message in the shittiest fucking way…. And the worst part is you still make me feel like a bad person for being angry at you now.

Verosika. Blitz slid down the banister, guilt on his face. 

“But, hosting this party, for everyone else you've dicked over? At least I can help others cope with the shit you did.” I hope I'm really helping them. Verosika kicked a pole away, allowing herself to sit next to Blitz, legs dangling. “No snarky comeback?” She asked. 

“No”, Blitz said, regret on his face. “You're right. I actually am, you know, sorry. I-I-I don’t wanna be this way. Not forever. “

You're finally getting it. “Not the apology I was wanting, but it's a start.” Verosika looked at him thoughtfully, finally talking with Blitz seriously.

 Blitz, however, only looking at her, still guilt ridden and heartbroken. 

“Ver, do you ever regret dating me?”

Verosika went to hold his hands. Blitz likes how soft her hands are.

“Despite all the shit you did to me and everyone here, I won't ever regret loving you.”

"You gave me one of the best things in my life," she thought of their son. 

“...Really but I was an asshole and still am one?”

“Well yeah, but now it is clear you want to improve. A lot of people want you dead, but not one of them. I know you got people who love you, you got her daughter. What is her name?”

“Oh Loonie… I mean Loona, I love her.” Blitz said with some happiness in his voice. “Don't know what I do without her.”

“See, there are people who love you.” Verosika told him. Need to to cheer him up before I can say anything about Blazin.

“I know a couple of my guests still do care for you and would certainly like an apology from you. And I’m sure of a certain someone who will definitely take you back if you ask.”

“I don't know. I don't think Stolas will want me anymore.”

I wasn’t talking about Stolas. Actually where is Stolas anyway? Hope he's having a good time?

“…OH THAT BIRD-STEALING COCKBAG!!” Blitz yelled as Verosika realized what he was looking at. Stolas makes out with some Incubus that she honestly doesn't remember inviting.

Blitz seething with rage was about to do something stupid, but Verosika stopped him.

“Blitz no! Please, you need to come down.” Verosika says trying to calm the heartbroken imp, not wanting any attention to them, but it was too late.

“IT'S BLITZO!!!!” A party goer yelled.

“BLITZO!?!”

Soon enough, many of her guests look to see the man they want dead, right there surrounded by them.

“Get him!!!” Someone shouted. 

“That bastard!!”

Soon enough a bunch of demons race to get the imp. Verosika scream as she try to get everyone away from Blitz. 

“Blitz run!!” 

He did as the imp ran out of the house, all while various items being thrown at him. Verosika with the help of Vortex, got everyone to stop chasing Blitz, despite all their anger. She went outside to see Blitz in his van, struggling to turn on his asmodean crystal. 

He's still here? It shouldn’t take that much effort to use an Asmodean Crystal. Wait, I need to tell him!

“Blitz hold on I…” Verosika shouted to try to get Blitz's attention. 

However the crystal finally turned on and like that Blitz and his van was sent back to hell.

“SATAN FUCKING DAMMIT!!!” Verosika screams, right outside the house surprising everyone there.

Verosika feels a lot of emotion for Blitz, worried, sadness..guilt. I should have told him earlier. Why is it so hard!!

Verosika went back inside. All of her guests are now looking at her.

“OK, EVERYONE OUT!! PARTY OVER” She yelled loudly. 

“WHAT!!!! WHY??? REALLY?!?” Various guests voice their disappointment, but that only got Verosika even angrier.

“OUT! OUT! EVERYONE GET THE FUCK OUT!!”

“Alright people, party over now.” Vortex said calmly as he led the annoyed guests out of the house. 

A few demons like Stolas and Verosika’s friends wanted to stay but felt it was best to leave her alone. 

“Did he come to apologize?” An Incubus said hopefully.

“His apology tour was a just fucking joke!” Their friend said as they left.

Verosika, despite trying to keep a hold of herself, kept focusing on what the departing demons were whispering.

“Fucking Blitzo.”

“I hate him with all my life”

“Damn firetoad, ruining everything.”

“He made Verosika upset!”

“Why the fuck was he here?!”

“We should have killed Blitzo.”

Verosika was disappointed by this. Yes the Anti Blitzo Party was about hating Blitz, but she never thought anyone would really want him dead. Well she would never want that. These parties were a support system for all the victims until they could move on. When she thought about it, did anyone really move on? 

Then she looked at her tattoo.. she could never move on too. Five years ago, she started the parties even when there were only a few people. Her, Fizzarolli and a few others, but as the years went by, Verosika was the only one from the first party still there. 

Verosika thought back to what her mom told her earlier…

“You are a popular pop star, anyone can claim they have been hurt by him to get an invite.”

“Where’s their proof? Have you ever asked them?”

“Fuck. I really messed up.” She thought as put her hands on her face. The Anti Blitzo parties should have lasted this long, they weren't therapy sessions. She made things worse for the “victims.”

After a little while, Verosika finally moved her hands then looked around the now empty house.

“Sigh. I really don't want to sleep here.”

KNOCK KNOCK. KNOCK. 

“I’m coming.” Venus yawned as she headed to the front door, her wife who woke her up and got her to get out of bed to check who knocked, despite Brenda being the one who was still awake. 

“Who is...Verosika?”

Verosika enters the house, embarrassment and sadness on her face.

“Hey mom, I'm going to crash here tonight, is that alright?”

“Always.” Venus smiled warmly at her daughter.

“Thanks.” She nodded as you went to sleep in the guest room. As she passed her mother, Verosika stop and say, 

“Mom…you were right.”

“It’s okay, darling.” Venus said. It's no time for a ‘I told you so’. 

“Goodnight.”

“Night mom.”

 In the morning, Verosika explains what happened with Blitz. After explaining her thoughts, her mother and mama tell her should have talked with blitz a lot earlier.

“Rossi, I'm sorry. I didn't want to say anything because you were happy hosting those parties and didn't know how long you were doing them” Brenda said Softly. 

“It's OK, mama. I really thought I was helping.” Verosika admitted.

“Those original parties you had with Fizzarolli, helped him didn't they?”

“Yeah, after a while he said he didn't need them anymore. And a few months ago, he and Blitz reconciled and are friends again.” Verosika said. Somewhat glad she helped someone. 

“Verosika.” Venus starts questioning her, “How long did you think you were hosting these anti Blitzo parties for? What would Blazin think of his mom having a party dedicated to hating his father? Blitz's thoughts of finding out he has a son after going to a party of people who hate him?"

Verosika shrink down thinking of bad outcomes of her actions. Imagining an older Blazin never giving his father a chance because of hatred or even he starts to hate her. 

“I'm sorry,” She said regretfully. 

“We're not the two you need to apologize” Venus classified. 

“I know.”

“Ok. So no more parties?”

“No more parties,” Verosika affirmed. 

“Alright.”

“Oh wait, Rossi, here's a picture of Blazin.” Brenda says as she handed her a picture. 

“You should know what to do with it” She added. 

Verosika's moms are not mad at her, just disappointed. Verosika never wanted to disappoint her parents, but she did have to realize she went wrong with handling her emotions. Verosika kept Blitz from being a part of Blazin's earlier life, and blazin from getting to know his dad. 

“I know what I have to do.” Verosika said quietly as she looked at the photo. 

Venus and Brenda, satisfied with their daughter's answer, left the room. Verosika, thinking about what her moms said, went to sit next to Blazin who was playing with stickers this whole time not even noticing the three women discussing. He smiled as he noticed his mom sitting next to him and started putting stickers on her.

Verosika just smiled. She now had to do something that had been a long time coming. Verosika took a deep breath and asked Blazin a question.

“Blazin, sweetie..” I can do this. 

“Do you want to meet your daddy?”

“Daddy?” Blazin said, now looking at his mommy.

Blazin only has a vague idea of Blitz, an horse loving imp that unfortunately always busy. All that he really knowa is that he and his mom loved each other. So he made the assumption they are still together and just had work that kept them separated. That's what me and momma got him to believe.

“Yeah, he's been wanting to see you again. He only saw you when you were a baby.” Verosika told him. 

“Daddy now. Daddy now?” He asked excitedly, thinking he’s going to see daddy now.

“Oh not yet” Verosika quickly thought of an excuse, “Daddy is still busy with work, but once he can, all of us will finally be together. Ok?”

“Ok.” Blazin smiled before going back to focus on his sticker sheet. 

Verosika sighs in relief. Glad talking with her son went well. He always wanted to spend time with his dad, hopefully he will soon.

“Ok now to talk with Blitz..”

One month later.

 “What the freaking hell!"

Blitz has been cou up his office since the party and I can’t reach him. Can’t call, text, freaking email! I don't know where he lives, so I try to go into his office, but his employees block my way. The female imp Millie, specifically growled at me. Kiki told me she was fine with us succubi? What is the problem?”

“I need to talk to him!!” Verosika said. 

“Back off you jezebel!” Millie sneered at her.

“I haven't forgotten what you did to my husband during spring break!”

“I didn't do anything!”

She scoffed, “You let your cronies happen.” 

Ok, not doing anything when the others were trying to have their way with this girl's husband was a bad choice. 

“While I am glad they apologized and helped Mox get the reservation at Ozzie’s, I will not like you. After what you did, Ms anti Blitzo party!!!! You let your drunken followers on my friend, he just wanted to apologize to Stolas, now that can’t happen.” Millie sneered.

“That wasn’t supposed to happen to him.”

“Are you happy now?” Millie said with anger.

 The male imp (Mox?) holds his wife's hands trying to calm her down. Blitz’s daughter, Loona was there too, but not saying anything. And that worried her the most.

“I'm not…. We…” Verosika not sure what to say to help. If anything she could say would help.

“I'll leave.”

“Tell him I'm sorry.” She said before leaving. She walked away from them, not looking at anyone until she reached the elevator. Her actions really ruined things. It was when she was about to leave the building that someone shouted at Verosika. 

“Are you really sorry?” The voice was Loona. “Well are you?”

“I am, but it's not like you guys will believe me.” Verosika remarked. 

“My dad… Blitz, not been great this month.” Loona said, looking down. 

 “Stolas ending their deal really messed him up. He wasted our money on useless shit, we almost went bankrupt all while he just overeats and watches Ghostfuckers. I tried to get him over it, but I couldn't do anything.” Loona sighs then look at Verosika who listened before she continues, 

“Then a few days ago, he went on a mission to hunt down a ghost.”

“A ghost?” Verosika interrupts. 

“An infestor demon that our client thought was a ghost.” Loona clarifies.

“Oh!!!” Verosika quickly understood.

“Anyway Millie found him bawling his eyes out, telling her that he ruined everyone's lives and after that that infestor possess him to attack Millie.”

“Blitz…” Verosika was horrified to hear what happened. And she thought the party was bad enough, but to be possessed and emotionally tortured too.

“Where is he now?” She asked in worry. 

“On a mission, he's somewhat better.” Loona said. “After that mission, Blitz tried to get things back to normal, we're still in the red, but won't be bankrupt soon.

Verosika sigh in relief. 

“Although I wonder if he'll ever be the same.” Loona muttered. 

“I know he will. He got you to take care of you.” Verosika said confidently. 

Loona blush before playing it cool, “You mean he got me to take care of him?”

“Maybe.” Verosika smirked. 

“Yeah.” Loona said happily. 

“Always I'm going now, Tell your dad he deserves to be happy.”

Loona surprised, but accepted it, “Got it.”

“And there is something I need to tell me, so whenever he is ready to come talk to me.”

“No problem.” Loona smiled. 

“Thanks Loonie.” Verosika smiled back.

“LOONIE!!!” The hellhound shouts in surprise, blushing heavily. 

“Bye!” Verosika walked away. 

“She's a good daughter. Blazin would love her.”

He almost died… 

A few days have passed since she left her message, she hopes that Blitz will be ok enough for her to finally tell him about their son. Only to see him almost executed live.

The moment she sees Blitz was saved by Stolas, she breathes a sigh of relief and almost relaxes for only a moment until she realizes that Blazin might have seen the broadcast. So she ran from the club she was at, calling her moms while looking for Blitz.

“Blitz where are you? I can’t wait anymore.”

Venus answered and told her that Blazin was crying, scared of the evil bird (Stolas) that almost got his daddy killed. Stolas singing his song may have helped blitz stay alive, but now most of every demon in hell hates him and it already made her son afraid. Verosika now has to promise to bring Blitz over in the morning to see him. 

“Mommy and Daddy will come see you tomorrow, ok sweetie?” Verosika said kindly.

“..ok.” Blazin muttered, clearly crying. It breaks her heart to hear her son like this.

“Ok, we'll see you in the morning.” Her Mom said before hanging up.

With that being said she has no choice but to tell Blitz about the son he didn't know of. Eventually she reached Blitz's apartment to talk. It went well as expected.

 “Ver.” Blitz said in surprise to see his ex at the door. Not upset or anything, it’s nice to know she still cared.

“Damn it, Blitz.” Verosika yelled. “I was scared because you were almost dead.”

“Almost Ver, I’m an assassin, killing is my job everyday I risk dying.” Blitz said thinking it was enough to calm her.

“You were prepared to die!" You can’t leave us.

“I did. I would have done anything to protect my employees,they’re my family. If I had to die, then so be it.” Blitz paused then spoke.

“I would have died for you too."

Verosika didn’t know how to respond, so she changed the subject. 

“Remember I said there was a certain someone who will definitely take you back if you ask?”

“Yeah I didn’t think Stolas would come to rescue. You were right, he still cares.”

I’m not talking about Stolas.

“Verosika everything alright… for the most part, if Stolas hasn't….”

“WHAT IF STOLAS DIDN'T SAVE YOU!” Verosika screams.

 “Verosika calm…”

“What if he was a second too late or he really got over you?” And she would had been the reason. 

“You would have died, " Verosika cried as she yelled. Tears falling from her face full force, make up a mess, but that is not her concern.

“We would have seen your severed head on the floor, DO YOU THINK WE WANTED THAT?!?! …I WANTED THAT?!.” Now she is just sobbing, having fallen to her knees. 

Blazin almost lost his daddy…

“ Verosika.” Blitz just hugged her. She hugged his back. They stay like this for a few minutes.

Verosika took a deep breath before speaking again. 

“You told me you didn’t want to be a selfish jerk anymore. I believe you. I saw it today, it was true. You became a better person and you were going to die.”

“Blitz for all the bad blood between us. The insults, that bet at spring break, the song at Ozzie’s… my anti Blitzo party… the years loving you and hating you it be pointless.” 

It wasn’t pointless, for what it's worth I loved the time we spent together, despite me ruining it.” Blitz quietly spoke looking at her calmly, “Thanks for saying I deserve to be happy, you do too remember.”

Verosika continues to cry while Blitz holds her tight. He looks at her then at the door of Loona’s room and to the sleeping goetia on the couch. “Good thing those two are heavy sleepers” Blitz thought as he continued to comfort his ex.

Verosika eventually calms down enough to speak. Tell him.

“I’m so happy you're alive,” she said, trying to smile. Tell him now.

“Sorry to keep making you worry about me after all this time,” He said.

“I hated you, but I never want to lose you.. everyone still needs you.” Now!

“I need you.” She said, Now!

“Verosika,” Blitz looked longingly at her, like he wanted to do something.

“Our son needs you.” She whispered in his ear.

Blitz paused on her words. “What did you say?”

It’s now or never. Verosika pulled out the photo from her breast and gave it to him. “Blitz… this is our son, Blazin.” She said sadly. 

“Son?! Are you serious?” Blitz said in shock. His hands shook as he held the photo.

“I swear Ver, if this is some kind of joke?”

“I’m serious. He’s yours, I was pregnant after you left me.” She said seriously. I really wish I had done this earlier. 

“That long! Why the fuck I’m only learning this now.” 

Tears are forming in Blitz's eyes, Verosika tries not to look at him before responding, “Blitz.. please.. Do you really think we were ready to be parents?”

We loved each other, but we still fought, still partied, still almost got ourselves killed. Even though I got my moms to help me, I struggle to be in Blazin’s life.

“….” Blitz remains quiet before sitting down on the floor. Not even bothering with a beanbag next to him.

“You’re not wrong,” he responded.  

Verosika, sad for him, sat on the beanbag and tried to console Blitz.

“Does he hate me?”

If seeing Blitz almost executed was terrible, hearing him say that makes her was to be executed. 

“No. No. He always wanted to know you. He see you as some sort of action hero... I tend to tell Stories about about you except cooler, ...That I love.  He also loves horses like you. I want you to meet him. So please..."

“Hate me for keeping him for you! Hate me for my parties! Hate me for loving you!”

“Just don’t hate him. He deserves to meet his daddy. Please before we lose the chance again.” Verosika said before continuing to cry quietly. 

“She’s too pretty to cry” Blitz thought as he stared at the photo. This was his son. The eyes, horns, the horse plushies, all confirm this is his child. The child he never knew existed and left Verosika to raise him by herself.

“Sigh…” Blitz uttered as he got from the floor to the other side of the apartment. 

When that happened, Verosika wanted to cry out, thinking he didn’t care, that she truly failed her family then Blitz spoke again.

“It's late. Spend the night. We will see our son in the morning.” He went to grab a blanket to give to Verosika.

“Wait what?”

“Let's not anymore, for him okay Ver?” He said reassuringly. 

You want us in your life…

You want me in your life..

Verosika wiped away her tears, her mouth slowly turned to a smile.

“You want to meet him.”

“I do.” 

“I haven't told you anything about him.”

“I believe you. We can work out the meeting later.” Blitz went to grab and hold her hands.

“I owe him and you so much. Time for me to step up” 

“Thank you.” Verosika smiled. She covers herself with the blanket he gave her and was planning to sleep, but she realizes something.

“Blitz… where's your bed?”

“Oh, I gave my bed to Loona years ago. I have been sleeping on the couch since but with Stolas here, I am going to sleep on the floor.” Blitz admitted. 

“Take the bean bag, I should leave.” Verosika said, not wanting to feel like a burden. 

“No, it’s late and I don’t want you to be alone at night. It’s hell after all” He said. 

“Really.” Verosika just looks at him. 

“Going to sleep Ver. Don't argue,” He added. 

“Fine then. Sleep with me….” Verosika said.

“…What?” Blitz quietly said. Face a bit redder than normal. 

“On the bean bag I mean.” Verosika corrected herself, realizing what she said could be implied.

“Oh. I thought… never mind.” Blitz deflated.  

“Ok. It’s just I don't think I can sleep alone. Not tonight." Verosika clarifies.

"Oh shit uh...Yeah that's fine." Blitz slowly made his way to the bean bag with Verosika. It was a very small bean bag, so they had to make do. Verosika rested her head on top of Blitz's chest. 

Thank you. "I'm sorry for everything." Verosika whispered as she started to doze off. Blitz just smiled.

"I'm sorry, too." 

Blitz had an exhausting day, first he got him and his family almost executed, he got Stolas banished without his powers and now he learned he has a son. A son, who he already missed out on years of his life, with the girl who loved him, but he only pushed her away because he was afraid. He already is a terrible man, but now he finds out he was even more horrible. 

“I don't deserve this…” He thought as he hold Verosika as he sleeps. 

Whether he deserves it or not, he will now have to be there for her and their son. And he also has to deal with Stolas, can't forget that. 

Chapter Text

A few years ago… 

Verosika was again watching her son since her moms were out. And baby Blazin just woke from his nap and easily crawled out of his crib. He looked around and moved toward where his mom was, on the couch looking very stressed while writing something down. She didn't see him get near, so Blazin called out, 

“Ma.”

 Verosika then took notice of him, now looking upset, “Blazin you're supposed to be sleeping!” She only put in his crib for a nap less than 20 minutes ago. Her moms needed her to watch Blazin, but she also needed to finish the lyrics for her new song. “Sweetie, mommy is busy right now, please go back to sleep.” 

Blazin looks up at his mommy, holding his arms up to her. He wants her to pick him up and hold him.

She signs, “Again, sweetie?” Verosika really needs to finish, but her baby keeps looking at her with his big eyes and smile.

“Ok.” She relented as lift Blazin up. He giggled as his mother held him. 

 “I guess I can take a break. One game then back to sleep, ok baby?” The child just smiled. 

She ended up playing horsies with him until he went back to sleep 2 hours later. At Least she ended up finishing up the lyrics right after, although she immediately fell asleep after doing it. Verosika loves her son, but admits she worries she will make him too dependent on her. Her moms tell her it will be alright, once he's older Blazin would be fine with her not being around. 

“I know they're right, but Blazin will always be my baby” Verosika thought as she fully went to sleep. 

Present day

 Blazin wakes up and crawls out of bed to see his mama. “Grandma B said mommy will be home. And with Daddy. Daddy is coming home today. After all this time, his dad is safe and be home with him and mommy. 

Me, mommy, daddy and grandma V and grandma B home together.” He happily thinks as went to look for his mom. 

“Ma? Ma?”

He looked around the house, but he couldn't find her anywhere. “Where's mommy or daddy?”

“Ma?” He kept calling out to her. The tone of his voice is slowly getting sadder. 

No response. 

  Loona wasn't sure what she was expecting this morning, especially after her dad was almost executed live last night, but seeing Blitz asleep in the arms of his popstar ex girlfriend, Verosika Mayday, on a beanbag wasn't even close to what she was expecting.  

"They look surprisingly cute together," Loona thought as she checked her phone as she was reminded of a text from Vortex. 

After she coming home from the trial, Loona got a text from Vortex, it read: 

Hey, have you heard or seen Verosika? She ran out of the club we were at, yelling She needed to “Find your dad.” I tried to call her, but nothing. Let me know if you do.

“Well at least she is fine, I guess?” She muttered. Loona quickly texted Vortex that his boss was fine.

And just a few moments later, Verosika slowly wakes up, murmuring out, “Blitz….Blazin needs you….”

“Blazin? Who's he?”

And the succubus finally opened her eyes, the young hellhound looked straight at her. The two lock eyes with each other, both in shock, confusion and a bit of embarrassment. 

“Uh, hi?”

Loona just remains quiet. 

Verosika then looks down, remembering the sleeping imp in her arms. She then looked back at said imp's daughter. 

“Oh, your dad didn't want me to leave, so I spent the night.” She said with a nervous smile. 

“..ok..” Loona muttered. 

“This is so awkward.” Both women thought, not even sure what to do next. 

“Blitz wakes up. Blitz!” Verosika desperately try to wake him up, to help out the currently awkward situation. She thought it finally worked when Blitz moved out her arms, only to put his hands on her breasts.

“Blitz!?!?” Verosika lets out at Blitz and starts to fondle her breasts. She never had a problem with him fondling her, but in front of his daughter is where she draws the line. 

 “Hmm, so soft”. He said still sleeping.

If it wasn't awkward enough for everyone there before, it sure is now.

 “Hmmmm”

“The fuck dad!!!” Loona said as she hit her dad on the head. This was so embarrassing for her. Her dad is literally groping his ex, (well to be honest, she is not sure what is going on with them), in front of her.

“Loonie!!!” He yelped as now fully awake. He also realized where his hands were.

“Ver.. I….”

“It's alright.. you have done it before a bunch of times…” Verosika tries to make it less awkward.

“Ugh. So what is going on here?” Loona asked. She is really uncomfortable right now. 

“We made up and hugged” Blitz blurted out. 

“I needed to see him. I couldn't lose him.” Verosika added. 

Two look at each other and blushes, realizing what the other said. 

“Ok?” Loona said. “I kinda regret asking right now. Still, who's Blazin?”

 “There are more, but do you mind if I fleshing it up a bit?” Verosika turned to Blitz, “I have been wearing this outfit since yesterday.”

“Sure, bathroom that way.” Blitz said as he pointed it to her.

Hey, do you want to borrow some clothes?” Loona offers. 

“Oh, I don't want to bother.”

“No, it's fine. I've already given some to Stolas, it's cool.” Loona shrugs.

Verosika then turns to look at the sleeping ex prince. Surprisingly they didn't wake him. 

“Ok then. I'll make it up to you I promise.”  Loona nodded. 

“I gotta start on Breakfast. But before that.”

Blitz walked up to a pile of horse plushies, then walked up to the sleeping Stolas on the couch and put them on him.

“What are you doing to Stolas?” Verosika asked, confused. 

“I'm putting my horse plushies on him..”

“Why?”

“To make him comfortable, of course.” He smiled as went to the kitchen. 

Loona shrugs and then goes back to her room. 

Verosika only signs. "Don't question it." She thought as she headed to the bathroom.  

“Ma. Ma. Ma!”

Blazin said as he tapped grandma's face, waking her up. Brenda yawned, “Blazin, what is it sweetie?”

“Ma? Ma?” She heard the sadness in his voice. 

“Oh your mommy is not here yet is she?” Brenda, now more awake, hugs her grandson. 

Venus slowly wakes up, “That girl never wakes up early. You know that. She probably won't be up for a while.”

“Right.” Brenda looks back at Blazin, “Maybe your daddy is the sleepy head and Mama is trying to wake him up.” She tried to sounds convincing, hoping it would help.

Blazin understands, but still looks confused. So Brenda just got out of bed and lifted him up. “Let's go have breakfast, sweetie. Your momma will probably be here after, ok?”

Blazin looked a bit down, but nodded. Blazin and his grandmas left the bedroom and headed to the kitchen.  

Hopefully his parents will be there soon.

 Stolas finally woke up, moving out of the mountain of horse plushies Blitz out on him. He looked around when Verosika spoke up.

“Hey Stolas, it's been a while.” She said as she brushed her hair. She is now wearing Loona’s clothes. They are barely her size, so they look really revealing on her, but she makes it work.

“Oh hello, Ms. Mayday, I didn't expect you… here.. at all.” Stolas said as he turned to see her. “Uh, good morning.”

“Yeah after… last time.” Verosika didn't want to be reminded of that. 

Blitz, in front of the stove, spoke up, “Well good morning there, Prince Sleeps-A-lot!” He chuckled. “Did you sleep well, big bird?”

Stolas yawns, “Best I could, I suppose. Also I heard your voice last night, miss Mayday. I thought you and Blitzo had your issues. Why are you here?”

“Oh we kinda reconciled at my party (before things went bad) and just confirmed things last night.” Verosika spoke.

“Oh that's wonderful.”

He looks at all the horse themed items, picking up a plushie before tossing it aside. 

“Uhh… my, Blitzo… hoohoo..” He chuckled. “You sure have a lot of… horses.”

“Ha. Everyone knows of his horse kink, babe.”

Blitz sticks his tongue at Verosika before smiling at Stolas. 

Stolas looks at them, “Iiisss… is there a story behind that?”

“Uh Stolas. Don't…” Verosika tries to stop him, she knows Blitz doesn’t like to answer. 

Blitz spoke up, “There is… But it's way too long, and way too traumatic… breakfast will be ready in a jiffy!”

He smiles and continues cooking, while both Verosika and Stolas look at him in concern. The two went to talk in the bathroom.

“Stolas, I admit I don't know much about your two relationships, but you got to know that wasn't a good idea.” Verosika said as she leaned against the door. 

“That little idiot doesn't like to talk about his past for whatever reasons, but I know it best now to bring it up.” 

“Honestly we haven't spent a lot of time together. Besides our full moon nights together. We barely know anything about each other.”

Stolas starts looking through the cabinets before looking down the running sink.

“Stolas, are you alright?”

“I don't have my medication.”

“Oh fuck, do you need it right now. I get Blitz to go…”

“NO.” Stolas hissed. 

Verosika is taken aback by his outburst. Stolas realized this and tried to recompose himself. 

“I mean, I can wait awhile before needing to refill. Blitz doesn’t need to know.”

“Are you sure? Shouldn't he know if you're staying here? Wait, are you staying here?”

“I'm sure. Don't tell him please.” Stolas pleaded. 

“…Ok.” She is still concerned. Why not tell Blitz, I thought….

“Thank you.” He said, cutting out her thoughts. 

The two exited the bathroom then headed to the table where Blitz, Loona and their breakfast was.

“You two done checking each other out in the mirror?” Blitz smirked. 

“Have you checked yourself in the mirror?” Verosika responded in a cheeky manner. 

Blitz put plates full of food to Verosika and Stolas. 

“Okay, so, I don't know what you eat Stolas, so I just made a little of everything in hopes that something works for ya. Got some eggs, made ‘em special!”

Stolas gags at the plate, shocking Blitz who quickly realizes the issue. “Oh. Oh shit. I'm sorry. ls this… that's like cannibalism for you, isn't it?”

“No, just rather off-putting. But it is protein, I suppose.” Stolas said as he ate his eggs.

"Blitz doesn’t even know what Stolas eats too?" Verosika wonder.  “Blitz, have you never cooked for Stolas before? Please tell me you don't just leave in the morning."

“I didn't want to be around Stolas' bitchy ex or his servants, it was weird to be near them.” Neither notice Stolas' downed expression.

Blitz started eating, “I haven't for someone since I was with you, Ver.”

Verosika blushes. “Oh really.”

“Yeah. Although you do realize you're a picky eater right?”

“What no I'm not.”

“Yup you are, you never want Wackdonalds breakfast or anything. You always wanted breakfast in bed, you expected scrambled eggs with not too much salt, 2 straps of turkey bacon and a large helping of cinnamon french toast with strawberry jam that was light covered with powdered sugar. Don't get me started on your coffee. It was the longest, most specific coffee order I heard of, just until I met Moxxie.” Blitz said.  

“Hey, I just got some expensive tastes. We all do.” Verosika remarked. 

“And you get upset with me with it not being ready in time you wake up.”

“I didn't ask you to make me anything, you just started doing it. While I did get upset sometimes, I always apologize after and always reward you for feeling me”. She smiled as she ate her pancakes. As she chews, Verosika spoke up,

“Hey these pancakes are good, but really need some….”

Blitz handles her maple syrup, chocolate syrup and white cream.

“Thanks. You are such a good housewife, Blitz.” She smiled as she poured all those toppings on her breakfast. 

“Fuck you.” Blitz said with a grins.

“Feed me after.” They both laughed while Loona and Stolas both quietly ate, not sure what to think of the other two interactions. 

“So Stolas, what do you normally eat?” Verosika randomly asked, surprising Stolas a bit before he answered. 

“Normally I dine on a custom diet prepared by waiting staff; full of essential nutrients and freshly prepared rarities such roasted vole or.. fire koi?”

Verosika looks at him in confusion, Blitz is intrigued (both not sure what those two things are) and loona, well she was just looking at her phone as she eat.

“A fresh kale salad?”

“Oh, nice. Anything that I can get that's affordable?”

“Kale is not that expensive, Blitz!” Verosika argued. 

“Do you buy kale?” Blitz replied. 

“Maybe some...rats.” Stolas said.  Not wanting the two to argued over him.

Verosika looked a bit grossed out, but remember Stolas is a bird. Birds eat rats.

Blitz then quickly got up and took his and stolas's empty plates to the sink and started to wash them.

“On it, Stolas! I'll grab my stompers and head out to the alley this afternoon.”

“Ew. Stolas, I'll buy the kale. Verosika said, a bit disgusted by Blitz's suggestion. 

Blitz, remember what you said last night? We need to go.” Verosika asked, while handing him her plate. She hoped Blitz didn't forget what he promised. 

“Oh yeah. I'll get the rats after we come back.” 

”It's perfectly alright, honestly. What are you two talking about? Where are you two heading?” Stolas asked 

“Yeah and who's Blazin?” Loona finally spoke up. 

Blitz stops his dishwasher and looks at his daughter. Verosika was surprised and bit nervous. 

Stolas, confused, spoke, “Uhm, Who is Blazin?”

“Verosika said the name in her sleep, saying he needs Blitz. Who is he and why does he need my dad?”

“Well you see…”

“Ver let me handle it.”

Blitz looked at his daughter and took a deep breath. 

“Loona, Blazin is my son, Verosika is his mother and you're his sister.”

Everyone went quiet until Loona yelled out, 

“…WHHAATTT!!?!?!?!?”

Blazin kept looking at the front door, expecting his parents to show up.

“Sweetie, eat your waffles.” Brenda pleaded. 

Blazin grabs a full waffle and shows it in his mouth while keeping his eyes on the door. A bunch of waffle pieces fall to the ground as he chews. 

“Sigh.” 

Brenda made Waffles, Blazin's favorite, but it doesn’t seem to make any difference in his mood. He still wanted his parents. 

“Venus, Do you think Blitz will be here?”

“Probably.” Venus casually said as she drank her coffee.

“Just Probably?”

“Honestly we know little of the man, and what we do is from the few times Verosika brought him over.” She put her coffee cup down before continuing,  

“I just hope he will be in a good enough state of mind. After last night, let's hope… for Blazin's sake.”

They, like most residents of hell, saw the trial and the almost execution. While they didn't know exactly what was going on, why Blitz would be accused or why a goetia prince was singing, all they know is that he is safe and apparently a hero of his kind now. 

That's fine and all, but Blazin was with them when they saw everything. He burst into tears when he saw his daddy, almost killed. He really didn't understand what was happening, all he could tell was that the “evil singing bird” is the bad guy who did all this. 

The Maydays only hope that despite everything, is that their daughter and Blitz are ok. 

“Done.” 

Brenda and Venus both turned to Blazin, who finished his breakfast, looking at them with a very messy face.

Blazin put his hand on his mouth, still covered with syrup and bits of waffles.

“Sticky.”

“Let's give him a bath before Rossi and Blitz get here.” Brenda said. 

“Agree.”

“…WHHAATTT!!?!?!?!?”

Loona yelled. Before she could do anything, she calmed down to look at everyone else who all were looking at her in equal shock and worry. 

“You have a son” she whispered before going completely quiet. Blitz has another kid. A real kid.

“Loona.” Blitz was about to comfort her, but she backed away. 

Stolas, not knowing what to say right now. “I wasn’t aware you had a son, Blitz. You never mentioned it.”

“Yeah I didn’t know either.”

Stolas confused. “Wait, what do you mean? Why wouldn't you? Miss Mayday?" 

You kept it from him?” Loona quickly added before going quiet again. 

Verosika solemnly said, “Because I only told him last night. I was pregnant when he left me.”

Blitz looks down while Loona looks at him.

“I was afraid he wouldn't want a kid or tell me to get rid of it. So I kept my pregnancy a secret life and away from the public eye. 

My son… Blitz's son is Blazin. He is an adorable little boy that loves horses and stickers. He's my little sweetheart that I would do anything for.” Verosika start to have tears in her eyes.

“Ver.” Blitz said as he moved closer to her.

“Only my moms, my friends Milky and Kiki and us 4 are the only ones that know he exists. My moms homeschool him and pay off any doctor Blazin needs. They love Blazin and he loves them. I have been wanting to tell Blitz about his son for a long time, but… a lot of things have been happening to us.”

Everyone quickly thought of Blitz's previous meetings with Verosika.

  Loona thought of seeing Verosika crying during spring break and her guilt after what she did to her dad. “That thing she wanted to say to Blitz, asking me to let him know to talk with her when he was ready… was to tell him about his son.”

Stolas thought about Verosika singing at Ozzie’s and the whole Antiblitzo party fiasco. “She really never hated him, did she? Her heart would never let her forget Blitz, she just like me.” 

Blitz thought all those moments and every memory he had with verosika, including the moment she told him “I love you.” “...If only I was a better boyfriend to her.”

“After I saw him almost get killed, I had to go see him, despite what I made people think I would never want Blitz to really die.”

Verosika started to cry, “I want him to be in his son's life.”

 Blitz immediately went to hug and consort her, much to Stolas and Loona’s surprise. Tears were flowing out Verosika's eyes, but she was able to calm down enough to continue speaking. 

“Thanks for saving him, Stolas.”

“Regardless of any issues I had with him, I would do anything for him.” He said calmly, putting his hand on her back, trying to help console her too.

Loona then came next to her, handed Verosika a tissue, “Sorry for yelling.”

“It's fine kid, I never expected things to go like this, but what could we do?” Verosika gave a small smile. She takes the tissue to dry her tears. 

"Me and Ver need to see him. I wish we could plan this better, but" Blitz was interrupted by a phone rings, it was Verosika's phone. 

She checked it, on the screen it reads, Mom calling. Verosika answered immediately. 

Venus, “Where are you, darling? Blazin has been waiting for you since he woke up. You better not be sleeping till noon again?”

Sigh, “No Mom a….” Verosika said sounded a off due to crying moments ago. 

“Verosika…were you crying? What did that imp ....”

“He didn't do anything, mom!” Verosika yelled at her mother's accusation before calming down.

“Me and Blitz just had breakfast and we're about to get ready to Leave.”

“Alright, that doesn't explain why she sounds like you were crying. Are you really ok?” Venus asked 

“Hey, could I talk to your mom?” Blitz asked, surprising everyone. Verosika was confused, but just put the call on speaker. 

“I am. Mom, you're on speaker now. I got Blitz right here.

Uh, hey there, Mrs. Mayday.” Blitz said awkwardly, but the calm look Verosika give him got him to relax. 

“Hello Blitzo.”

“Uh the O is silent.”

“Oh my apologies. Did my daughter explain everything to you, Blitz? About…your son?”

“I… I want to be in both your daughter and my son's life… if you let me.”

Venus was taken aback by his answer, “I just wanted to know. I have been wanting Verosika to get you involved, you better not expect us to do all the childcare for ever.”

“Mama!”

“Blazin get here!” Brenda's voice is heard in the background. 

“You two….Blazin?.. wait…” Venus was cut off when someone took her phone from her. 

"Ma?"

 "Ma?"

Everyone froze by the voice, it was Blazin. 

“Blazin?” Verosika quickly responded. 

"Ma?"

"I'm here sweetie."

"Where, here?"

"Me here."

"You where?"

"With Daddy."  She said as she gesture Blitz to speak on the phone. 

"Don't worry we'll be there in a few minutes. We're almost at the house. Right, daddy?” Verosika said, try to convince her son.. and Blitz in that moment. 

“Me and your mom are also there…..son.” Blitz struggled with his words.

"Da?"

…Yeah kid, it's daddy.” Blitz is slowly crying. 

"Daddy!" 

Verosika take the call off speaker, “ Sweetie we'll be there, ok?

"Ok." Blazin said, much happier that earlier. 

"Good. Now give back the phone to grandma."

Venus, now with her phone, answer,  "How much time do you need?"

Blitz through his tears, "Ten minutes,"

"Ok that is more than enough to get Blazin ready." Venus went on, "He ran out of the bathtub when he heard your voice on the phone. Your mother is drying him off now." 

“Of course he did that. Later mom.”Verosika said as the call ended. 

"..Dad are you alright?" Loona asked.

Blitz, wiping his tears away, "I.. talked to my son. My son."

"Dad. Blitz." Loona and Stolas both show concerns for him.

"Blitz if you're not up to I…."

"No, I'll go." Blitz insisted. "My boy spends years without me and I'm not making him wait anymore."

"Alright" Verosika smiled "We better get going. My moms are waiting."

"Yeah. Hey, will you two be fine without us?" Blitz turned to Stolas and Loona.

"Yes." Stolas confirmed. 

"Loona?"

"Going to him." She said, trying not to sounds upset. "He needs you more."

"We'll talk later." Blitz said to at ease her. She only nods.

"Ready Blitz?"

"Hold on." Blitz when the closet and brought a medium sized box. 

"Now I'm ready. To your moms’ house!" Blitz kicked the door open and was about to leave. 

"Uh….where's your moms’ house?"

"Uhh." Verosika brings out her asmodean crystal and opens a portal to outside the house.

"Nice. We'll be back later, Loona, Stolas."

The two waves as Blitz and Verosika enter the portal.

"Blitz, are you sure you are ready?"

"Verosika, if I don't do this now, I probably won't do it later."

"Still…"

"Ver, trust me."

"Ok" Verosika nodded as she opened the door.  She and Blitz enter the kitchen to she Venus waiting. 

"Mom."

"Darling." Verosika and her mother hugs,  Blitz stood next to them.

"Hello Mrs Mayday."

"You don't have to impress me, Blitz. I'll already have a decent enough idea of you." She said. 

Blitz not sure she meant by that but ignore it.

"Rossi!!" Brenda called out. The three turn to her in the hallway. 

"Hey momma."

"Hi Blitz. It's me Brenda."

"Hi"

"Where Blazin?"

"He in the living room waiting."

Blitz and Verosika gave each other a  look of reassurance as they enter the living room.  They enter to see the child jumps on couch.

"Blazin." Verosika called out to him.

"Ma?"

"Mama!!" Blazin jumps off the couch and jump into his mom's arms.

"I'm happy to see you too sweetie." 

Blitz was looking at his son for the first time and knows he would do anything for this child. The only thing he know is how to talk with him, so Verosika did it for him.

"Blitz this is Blazin. Blazin is your daddy."

"Hi."

"Hi there I'm your daddy." Blitz said trying not to immediately mess did up. But before he could think of any negative thoughts,  he felt small arms wrap around him.

"Hugs" Blazin said happily as he did so. 

Blitz started crying tears of joys as this happens, he struggles to get Blazin off him to give him the box he brought. (Mainly because he didn't even want to let him go).

"Hey Blitz, what's in the box?" Brenda ask curious. 

"Something for Blazin to make up for  me not being there for" Blitz finally let Blazin go and look at him.

"Blazin I want you to have this." He open the box to reveal a horse plush. I should have expected that was a horse in there, Verosika thought.

That horse plushie looks old. A bit worn and is it mane burned? 

“Blazin, this is Pancakes, he was a gift from my mama when I was about your age.” Blitz said so gently, all of the Mayday women were surprised by it. 

“Yous mama?” Blazin asked confused. 

“Yeah, my mama. Your other grandma. She… not around anymore.” Blitz struggled to continue, but I want you to have Pancakes, so you can have something from her. Blitz then lifts the plushie toward his son, gesturing to him to take him.

The Mayday women were touched by his words and saddened by the knowledge of Blitz's decreased mother.

"Is that why he doesn't talk about his past", Verosika wonder.

Blazin looks at the horse with big eyes before grabbing it by the head with one hand and Blitz's hand by the other. 

Blitz looks at Verosika in confusion.

“Just follow him,” she said. 

He nodded as he followed, or well let his son dragged him to his bedroom. Blitz also uses this time to look around to look at any photos of Blazin he sees. He doesn't need to, but atleast want to see some more glimpses of his son's life. 

Blazin's room in Blitz's opinion was awesome. It's full of cowboy and horse themed decorations, and various kinds of horse toys on the shelves and floor. The walls were covered in MLP posters, drawings of horses and a bunch of stickers. (A lot of Stickers really).

"I would have loved a room like this when I was a kid. Hell, I would want a room like this today!" Blitz thought. 

Blazin put Pancakes on top of his raceway bed while he went under it. He came out right after with a box full of cool robot horse toys. Blazin looks at them for a few seconds before moving them to the side and starts to look around his bed. 

Blitz tries to figure out what his adorable child is doing, but gets his answers when Blazin yells "Ya!"

Blazin pulled out a small red horse plush from behind his pillow and put it right next to Pancakes. And like a lightswitch was turned on, Blitz immediately remembered that small horse.  A gift he gave to Verosika not long after there started dating. 

"Hey Ver, here's a horse. He hands the small plushie. 

"Uh thanks. Why a horse?"

"Because they're awesome and you never know when you're gonna need it."

"If you say so. Verosika shrugs as she held the horse"

"She kept it after all this time." Blitz smiled at this realization. 

Blazin put the small plushie next to Pancakes and pointed at them. "Daddy. Baby."

"This is my Son" Blitz repeatedly say in his mind,  like he still can't believe, but do anyway. 

Blitz's life as an assassin isn't easy. Constantly a struggle to survive and earn a paycheck. Honestly if he didn't have Loona and M&M in his life, Blitz wasn't sure how long he would last. But Blazin is a kid that barely speaks full sentences, far from the life has before or now. The kid still smiles without any fear or worry. 

Blitz remembers he used to smile like that, but then he lost it. He only knows his son for a few minutes, but he promises that Blazin will never lose his smile. He promises too as long as he lives. 

Blitz hug his son tight, Blazin just likes hugs, so he did the same. 

“Blazin.”

“I promise I'll always be there for you. There to help and protect you. There to give you whatever you need.”

Blazin just kept looking without any thoughts in his mind.

“You haven't known me for long, but all you need to know is that I care for you and your mommy and I'll fight to protect all your smiles.”

“I love you my son.”

Blazin just smiles and keeps hugging him, both remain as they hold each other until Blazin starts playing with Blitz's backspines. 

“Hey, were you even listening to a word I said?”

Blazin just giggles as he tries to reach the back spines again. Blitz only sighed. His son was adorable, so he decided best to forget it and just start to tickle the kid. 

"Hahaha!" Blazin start laughing. 

“Now I got something. You're as ticklish as your mom.” Blitz chuckled. He stopped, only for Blazin to start tickling himself instead. 

"Hahahaha!" Blitz burst out laughing as his also laughing son tickle him.

The Mayday mothers were relieved to hear the happy laughter of the father and son, any worry about Blitz not being accepted went away.

“Well this good, right Venus?”

“Way better than I was expecting, Brenda.”

“So Rossi, what do you think?"

"I think...." Verosika try to respond, but was interrupted. 

“Neigh! Neigh!”

The Mayday stop and look. They see Blazin ride his father as a horse, making horse sounds.

“Neigh! Neigh!"

"Just perfect" Verosika laugh as she looked as Blitz. 

He reacted in surprise as he noticed the three women, he moved to a stop. Blazin took this chance to wave at them.

“Ma. Play horsies! You too?”

“Ok!”

“Yeah, let's ride your mom!”

“Really?” The Maydays look at him with various amusement. Blitz blushes, realizing how that sounds. 

“Oh, I mean.... NEIGH!!” Blazin jumps on him to get him to move.

Brenda and Verosika laughed while Venus lightly chuckled. 

“Jump To ma!”

"What?!?"

"NEIGH!!!"

"Blitz, don't you dare..." Verosika was cut off midsentence as her baby and (ex?)(Baby daddy?) Blitz landed on her.

Chapter Text

“Nice. We’ll be back later, Loona, Stolas.”

The two waves as Blitz and Verosika enter the portal.

  After Blitz and Verosika left for Blazin, Loona and Stolas were sitting on the couch together in the awkward silence of the apartment. They didn’t know what to do without Blitz, they hardly interacted with each other without him. Stolas decided he could at least try to start a conversation, “So Loona, have any hobbies?”

“Hmm” Loona muttered as she looked at her phone. Not really wanting to talk with Stolas. He just gave up as he sat quietly. Loona ended up turning on the TV to kill the silence, one of Blitz’s horse shows played and it was good enough to distract Stolas.

 She then texted Vortex to let him know about Blitz and Verosika being together (not together just at the same place). She also tells him to ask Verosika for an explanation.

Loona then got another text, not from Vortex, but from Beezlebub. It reads,

Hey girl it’s me Bee.

Are you and your fam alright?

I wanted to see if you ok now

I waited a bit before messaging you

I wish I could’ve helped more

“How did she get my number?” Loona asked out loud.

Stolas who was still sitting next to her, “So are you and Queen Beelzebub friends?”

She turned to look at him blushing nervously,

“Oh I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but….”

“It’s fine.” She turned away from him, “I don’t think we’re friends. We met when I was invited to one of her parties in Gluttony. It was the night that you and my dad went to that club in lust.”

Stolas just muttered a quiet "Oh.”

“Yeah, I can’t call us friends since I was kinda rude to her for trying to be nice.” Loona said as she put her phone down (not looking or responding to Bee’s texts). “As if someone as great as her would want to be her friend. Did Tex give it to her? Why?” She thought, really not sure what to think.

“Loona, are you alright?”

“I am.” “Not really.”

“Can I ask you a question?”

“Yeah?”

Stolas asks, "What do you think of Miss Mayday and her son?”

“….It’s cool.” “No it’s not. I can’t believe it.”

“Well I figured it would be a big deal for you and Blitzo’s lives going forward.”

“Yeah so?” “Stop lying to yourself.”

“I mean you already have to deal with me staying here, the massive popularity Blitzo and IMP is now having, so having a new sibling on top of everything,

Things will absolutely change.”

Loona froze as she remembered something she hadn’t thought of in so long.

“Hey Loona can you come here for a second, we got some news.”

A preteen Loona was called into the living room by her then adopted parents.

“Yeah?”

“We just received a call from our doctor and it turns out we will be able to have children of our own after all.” The father said.

“Oh congrats.”

“Thank you. Glad you can understand.”

“Understand what?”

“Now that we have received the good news, we don’t need you anymore.” The mother said.

Loona doesn't know what to say.

...

“Loona?”

“Loona?”

She snapped back to reality as she realized Stolas was still talkin, now looking like he regrets his question.

“Loona, I apologize for upsetting you. I’m really sorry, I still don’t know how to understand the lower class.”

“He wouldn’t understand, no one can understand.”

“Forget it. Let’s go out a bit, I got things to do.” She said as she dragged him out of the apartment, Stolas not trying to resist. (Not like he can).

  At the Mayday home, Blitz and Verosika had been playing cowboys with Blazin for quite a while since they got there. It ranges from Blitz the horse, Verosika the cattle needed to be lassoes to Verosika the horse and Blitz the cattle; Blazin always the cowboy (mainly since he is too small for the other two roles.)

“Yeehaw.” The boy said happily as he held a fedora like it was a cowboy hat.

“So why does he have a fedora instead of an actual cowboy hat?” Blitz said, tied up with jump rope.

“Neigh!! We didn’t have an actual one at the time and he just grew to like that one. Neigh!” Verosika said on four, still playing the role of horse.

“Again! Again!”

 Blazin was excited, but Blitz and Verosika were a little less. It was already the 5th time they played this game, but before they could play for the sixth time Brenda came into the room.

  “Lunch is ready, I made chicken nuggets!” She said, cheerfully.

“Nuggies!” Blazin said as he ran out of the room to his food. His parents, glad they don’t have to play anymore, fall and lay on the floor. Verosika also took the time to get Blitz loose. They were able to catch their breath before looking around the room.

Blitz got up and started picking up the fallen horse toys from the floors. “Blazin is really energetic isn’t he?”

Verosika, now sitting on the floor, “Yup, he has been like this since was a baby. He just likes to spend time with people.” She thought about how kind and friendly her son is.

Blitz smiled as he put the toys either in a toy box or on the shelves. “I liked it when he lassoed you and tied you up.”

“You used to love tying me up, didn't you?” Verosika said flirtily, reminiscing on her and Blitz's past sexual escapades.

“Really in our son’s room?" Blitz chuckled.

The two both laughed as they finished cleaning up the room. Verosika was about to head out to join her son and moms, but Blitz stopped her.

 “Hey so can I ask what it was like raising Blazin?”

Verosika was taken aback, but responded, “I won’t lie, it was hard for me. Even with my parents' support, being a single mother has been really stressful and at times I wondered if I could really be a good mother.”

 Blitz looks down before looking at her. “Ver, if I knew, I would at least try to help even if I wasn’t ready to be a dad.”

She signed, “I would have liked the help, but I wouldn’t have forced you to stay. I had a bunch of times I wanted or tried to reach out, but it wasn’t the right time.”

“But that shouldn't matter! I got you pregnant, I should have been there for you instead of finding people to be my exes.” He said with a lot of remorse in his voice.

“No. None of that negative shit in this house. Blitz I chose to have our son and I don’t regret it.” Verosika calmly exclaims, not wanting him to act like this to Blazin.

She got up and close to Blitz as she continued,

 “I love Blazin, from the day we left the hospital together I promised I would love him as much as I can, and fill the void you left us. I don’t regret anything.”

Blitz doesn’t feel any better hearing this. Verosika grabbed his face and looked at him and spoke,

“What I’m getting at, is that I’m glad you’re here now. And that's all I want.”

“I promise to be here for him. That hasn't changed!”

“I know you will.”

They stay like this for what felt like an hour when it was only a few seconds. They just smiled at each other.

“Want to make out?” Blitz smirks.

“Really, in our son's room?” Verosika said as she let go of Blitz’s face. “Come on, let's go eat already.”

She headed out of the room as Blitz followed.

“After lunch, Blazin will probably want to play more.”

 “Yeah I figured, but it shouldn't be tough ”

“Oh just wait until we play hide and seek.”

“How hard can hide and seek be?”

“You will be surprised.”

“Fucking damn it Stolas.”

Loona had taken Stolas out to experience the poor life, as well as do some errands that needed to be done, but Stolas still doesn’t seem to get it. He didn’t understand why vendors ignored him at the flea market. He skips over the angry customers in the checkout line, he overflows a washing machine in the laundromat making it flood and lastly during lunch a waitress spit in his food so she punches her in the face (well that was her fault technically).

“I should have left him at the apartment… no, I promise… dad.”

Now they are at the park trying to relax, despite having to skip lunch. Stolas kept trying to apologize for her getting stressed for helping him.

“I’m so sorry, Loona. I keep causing trouble for you.”

“Again It’s fine!”

Loona just focuses on her phone again as Bee starts texting her more.

Loona are you ok?

Please call

Are you mad at me

I’m sorry for letting them muzzle you

Respond please

Loona can’t understand why Beelzebub is doing this. They aren’t friends are they? It's been only a few hours and her phone has been flooded with texts and missed calls from the sin of gluttony. She wondered if she should at least give bee a response. Loona then heard laughter near her. She looks from her phone to see a family with 2 kids playing near her.

"Maybe me and Blitz can still be that. If I'm still needed." 

Stolas noticed the family too, leading him to talk about Octavia. “ Oh how I miss Via so much. I wish I could let her know I haven't abandoned her.”

Loona, again, wasn't listening to Stolas, she was focused on the happy family not too far from them. It made her remember again,

“We gave you a chance instead of sending you away, but you did this!”

“Please… it was an accident!”

“We had enough of you, what an ungrateful hellhound you were.”

“I….. thought I was your daughter?” Loona pleaded before being slapped in the face.

“Not anymore.”

....

Loona burst into tears, surprising Stolas and anyone else around them. Stolas tries to help, but Loona pushes him away.

“I don’t need you, I’m fine!” “I’m not. I’m not good enough.”

“Loona, please, I only want to understand.” He grabbed her arms while Loona cried more.

“Hey!!” An imp shouted at them and more people that were around them took notice, some of them realized who he was.

“It’s Stolas!”

“Stolas?!?”

Small crowd forms, a few Blitz fans are there and they see the Goetia that almost got Blitz killed, now is scaring a “poor defenseless” hellhound.

“Stolas? That disgraced prince?”

“That monster who tried to get the hero imp killed!”

“Get away from that poor girl!”

“He’s got no powers anymore. Get him!!”

“Wait!!!” Stolas tries to explain himself as the group starts grabbing and holding him down. He can't do anything as Loona, who still crying, is led away by a small cat-like sinner.

“Loona!!!”

He tries to reach for her, but is slapped away by one of the imps holding him.

“Back off her you creep!” A female imp said with disdain in her voice.

Stolas struggled to get out of their grasp and get to Loona, who was trying to calm herself down. Both were unaware that the cat-like sinner was running full force toward Stolas.

“Please everyone, you gotta understand I’m only trying to help her.” Stolas attempted to defend himself but fell on deaf ears as he was attacked by an incoming force.

“EMBERLYNN KICK!!!!”

 Completely unaware of what was happening in pride, Blitz and the Mayday happily enjoyed their lunch together (the ladies ate grilled chicken salads while the father and son ate nuggets.)

Blitz nonchalantly went on a long talk about horses and how cool they are, which only Brenda and Blazin show interest.  

Venus spoke to her daughter, "I still don’t understand what the appeal of horses is?”

“Just go with it.” Verosika shrugged as she took another bite of her salad.

Then out of nowhere, Blitz took out a balloon and started to inflate this, but it quickly popped.

Blazin let out a “Eep" as he covered his ears.

“Oops.” Blitz said as he pulled out another one and tried again.

“Eep!”

“Oh, I almost got it.” Pop again.

“Eep!”

“Wait. Last one.” He finally got it. A balloon horse without any legs.

“A balloon horse?” Venus and Verosika both look at this in confusion.

"Kid, this is a Worm horse. He lost his legs because he ate too much sugar." Blitz said proudly as she handed it to his son.

Blazin yelled happily as he held the worm horse. Brenda just smiled, impressed by Blitz’s skills. Verosika looked confused as she tried to figure out what that supposed to be a joke or something. Venus…well Venus just stared. “You’re the hero imp?!”

“Where’s you hear that?”

"That's what various imps have been calling you since last night. It's all over social media, a bunch of demons all over hell have been showing their love and admiration for you. Making art, music about you, babies named after you, even demons tattooing your name on their bodies.”

Verosika says, “And you said tattoos of his name on my arm was a crazy idea.”

“It still is.” Venus said as she sipped her drink.

"I guess surviving a trial where there was no way I would actually survive was Inspirational to people I guess?" Blitz shrugs, hoping they don't ask for more information (explaining the whole Stolas's Grimoire situation would be difficult for everyone.)

"Well maybe we should talked about something else?" Verosika try to change the subject. 

Brenda spoke up, “There is also that Emberlynn girl I heard of, saying she’s your one true love. Oh, actually I think she is live streaming right now.” She was able to use her phone to show the stream, but Blitz stopped her.

“Can’t we not talk about her either.” Blitz said annoyed.

“You know her?”

“I wish I didn’t!” Blitz said bluntly.

Venus then changed the subject by asking, “So I was wondering would you like to have Blazin stay with you occasionally? You do have the right.”

Blitz looks unsure, “Oh...I don't... Don't get me wrong, I would love him to visit, but I’m not sure, I live in a small apartment with my daughter loona.”

Brenda remembers, "Oh right you have a daughter. You have a big sister, Blazin.” She said as she turned to her grandson, still playing with the worm horse.

“Sista? Luna?” Blazin clearly confused. 

“Wait, I thought he had a hellhound?” Venus said confused.

“That hellhound is his/my daughter.” Both Blitz and Verosika answer her. They both blushed while Brenda and Venus looked amused.

“My apologies.”

“This is Loona.” Blitz then shows everyone photos of Loona on his phone.

“Oh what a pretty young lady.” Brenda said.

“I suppose so.” Venus is not sure she approves of her outfit.

Blazin is confused by “the doggie” in the photo, but Blitz assures this is his sister loona.

“Loonie is my daughter, your sister. She is great and will love and protect him from danger. I’m sure she would love to meet you.” “Hopefully.”

Emberlynn Pinkle, self proclaimed true love to Blitz Buckz, dressed in a crop top that read, “Sexier than Stolas”, standing proudly on Stolas as a crowd cheers on her as the whole thing is being live stream and recorded.

“I, Emberlynn Pinkle, have defeated the evil Stolas.. I won't let this toxic yaoi stands no matter how hot it is.”

“Toxic yaoi? Does that outfit say “Sexier than Stolas?” Stolas asked, more confused than anything.

Don’t try to talk yourself out of this, Stol-ass!” Emberlynn shouted as she kicked him, “You made Blitzy-kun locked in a room for a month after breaking his heart!!”

“Blitzo did what? But he broke mine?” Stolas was confused, not sure how to process this. 

A now calmed down Loona, with anger in her eyes, walked toward them. Emberlynn happily greet her. 

“Don’t worry Loonie-Chan, as your new stepmom, I will…” before Loona grabs her and tosses the sinner miles away.

The crowds were taken aback, the ones recording kept recording. Loona then helps Stolas up and tells the crowd to leave them alone.

“He and Blitz reconciled already!” She shouted. "So FUCK OFF!!!"

What about almost getting him executed?” An imp asked. 

“We all saw the trial!”

"YEAHH!!!"

“Or what about when Stolas solicit Blitz for sex at loo loo land? I saw him. He did it in public, there were kids nearby!” Said an imp mother with a baby strapped to her.

"His song at the anti blitzo party? He called him a motherfucker!" An imp hybrid yelled.

"We saw the recording!"

"YEAH!!"

"I was there! I saw him kiss an Incubus right after!" A female imp said.

"You're the real Motherfucker!!!"

"YEEAAAHHH!!!!"

Stolas had no response. He did those things and he never apologized for any of them.

The mob was ready attack Stolas to again, but before Loona or anyone could do anything the sigil of Beelzebub appeared behind them and the deadly sin came out.

“LOONA!!!” Beelzebub shouted before looking at the crowd.

"LEAVE!!!!"

The crowd fled in terror as the queen bee of gluttony grabbed both Loona and Stolas. She looked at them with a serious, but calm demeanor before putting Stolas on her back and holding Loona in her arms as she flew away.

Emberlynn, who ran back from where she was thrown, arrive to see all this and just focused on how Bee held Loona. Her shipping senses went off.

“OH MY GOD!! Is Loonie-chan Beelzebub's secret lover???”

Where's Mona?” Blazin asked. 

“Loona. She is at home, with a friend.” Blitz tells his son. (Not wanting to have to explain Stolas to him).

“Me meet Luna?”

“Loona. And you do?” Blitz asked nervously. He didn’t plan for a visit so soon. He doesn't know if Loona is fine with it. What about Stolas?

He looks at Verosika for a solution.

“Hey sweetie, you want to see your auntie milky and Kiki? It been a long time since they saw you." Verosika asked. 

"Oh. Ok And Loonie?"

"Well I don’t know if she is busy." Verosika muttered, her attempt didn't do much. 

"Why do you all go see Milky and Kiki then go see Loona. So won’t interrupt her time with her friend?" Venus suggested.

"Yeah. Her friend. Yeah" Blitz and Verosika sigh in relief, thanksful for the older woman suggestion. 

“I’ll also call up my employees Moxxie and Millie so they can meet Blazin. They are my friends, I want them to know.” Blitz says. "Also they can help deal with Stolas."

"Well now that is settled, Blazin should go get ready” Brenda said. 

"Yay!"

Blazin heads to the room with Verosika and Brenda following after. Venus took the empty plate to the dishwasher.

Blitz immediately heads halfway to try to call Loona. No answer. He quickly texted her that Blazin wants to me her.

“Sweetie you can’t take all you can’t take all your toys?”

Blitz looks into Blazin room to see Verosika trying to stop their son from shoving a bunch of his horse toys into a small backpack. 

"For Looona!"

Blitz chuckles asthe sight before looking back at his phone. Still No response.

 “I hope Loona will be fine with this.”

His phone rings. Stolas is calling.

At Bee’s home in gluttony, Stolas and Loona relax on a couch as Beelzebub comes with some lunch.

“Some deep fried rats for Stolas and some double bacon cheeseburgers for my girl Loona.” Bee said happily as place their plates in front of them.

After rescuing them, Bee apologize to both Loona and Stolas for not being able to help more during the trial and for people harassing them.

"My queen, it was out of your control, please don’t trouble yourself." Stolas said as he quickly devour the fried rats. 

“I still could have tried more, at least to get them to get that damn muzzle off you Loona.”

Loona stays silent.

“How did you find out where we were?”

“Oh Loona kept ignoring my calls and texts all day. Well I didn’t know were you ignoring by purpose or accident I just wanted to check on her and her dad. So when I found out about that live stream I teleported over to help you guys.”

“By the way, where is your dad anyway?" 

Loona flinched. Quickly telling Beelzebub something wrong. 

Stolas decided to say, “Blitzo is currently with his ex-girlfriend Verosika Mayday at this moment as they recently reconciled not too long ago.”

Bee was surprised but excited. “No fooling!  They’re back together, I never thought they would rekindle things all this time. It was so obvious she was still hung up on him. Why else would she hold those kinda stupid hate parties?”

“You knew.”

“Nothing wrong with getting together and venting out their anger, but all that for just one guy for so many years? It's like they aren’t even trying to move on. All that negative emotion bottling up can be really bad for everyone.”

Loona asks, “So why haven’t you done anything to stop it if it is so bad?”

“Girl, you got to understand that while the anti blitzo parties are bad, I don’t have any rights to stop them. If the parties are somewhat helpful, I can’t just take away their parties regardless of what I think.”

“The best I can do is supply the parties, to make their experience more relaxing and a bit less toxic.”

“The best you can do?” Loona said as Stolas and Bee looked at her.

“The best you can do!!!” She shouted as her food fell to the floor. 

“You’re not doing anything, you’re a freaking sin. Do more!!”

“I have no right and I will not force my authority on them, I’m not like Satan or mammon. Just because I’m a sin, doesn’t mean I don’t have limits. Things I can’t do or challenge because of the other sins won’t let me! They… Satan won’t listen.” Bee said clearly trying to not to be over emotional. 

“Do you think I enjoy watching a friend of mine being muzzled…”

Loona was floored by this response. She then whispered "..You see me as a friend.”

“Everyone I partied with were my friends. You and your dad, despite how you acted during that one time, I saw you too as friends. You guys needed some and I was willing to be there if you wanted me.” Bee said calmly. 

Loona looks down. “I’m sorry. Things have been stressful, confusing. I’m not sure how to handle things.”

“That’s okay.”

“This morning, Verosika revealed that she and Blitz have a son. A little kid named Blazin.”

“Wow you’re a big sister now. Congratulations I guess.”

“Yeah..”

“You don’t seem happy.”

Loona just looked at the ground and picked up the food she threw. Stolas brought a nearby trash can so she could throw it away.

“Loona, do you hate Verosika?" 

"No. I bit confused, but if my dad doesn't hate her I won't?"

"So is it the idea of a brother?” Bee asked looking at her.

Stolas doing the same.

Loona remains quiet not sure what to say.

"What am i supposed to say? I'm jealous of a kid that did nothing wrong? Scared after almost losing dad, I get replaced. 

"No... Blazin not the problem."

Beelzebub now understands. "So you think you're the problem?" 

Loona broke down. Crying and howling,  Beelzebub holding her as she let it all out. So Loona told them about the couple that adopted her when she was twelve. How things were good for a while until they announce the baby.

" ....They thought they were infertile at the time, that why... they adopted me...." Loona said through her tears. "When they got the news... they plan to send her back... but I  end up convincing them to let her stay as a nanny..."

"Take your time." Bee says soothingly. 

"...I stopped being their daughter." Loona said as she remembered the painful memories. 

 The twelve years old hellhound force to care the child on her own while the parents at work or relaxing. The girls was constantly tired and stressed to the point of exhaustion.

But one day she fainted, she was feeding the baby and she just dropped to the ground as the baby cried in the high chair. For About 2 hours, she was out cold while the child cried and then parents were at work. Loona was then shook awake by the angry parents.

She see the baby asleep, but with a face full of tears. "Oh no."

“We gave you a chance instead of sending you away, but you did this!”

“Please… it was an accident!”

“We had enough of you, what an ungrateful hellhound you were.”

“I….. thought I was your daughter?” Loona pleaded before being slapped in the face.

“Not anymore.”

Loona cried at the spot. Her cries wake the baby.

"Get up you lazy ass mutt!!" The father said grabbing her collar as the mother calmed the baby.

Loona could only cry and plead as the father dragged her back to the pound.

Stolas and Bee were at tears. Both heartbroken to heard what happened to her. Stolas immediately excuse to make a phone call. Beelzebub just continue to hold Loona. 

“I’m sorry. For everything." 

“It's fine girl."

“I told them I loved them, and then they replace with the baby."

"That's wasn't you fault they were terrible parents." Bee try to comfort Loona the best she could. 

I told Blitz I love him last night.”

"Loona?"

Loona looks at Bee with her face full of tears, her voice low and strained,

 “…I don’t want to stop being his daughter.”

Chapter Text

Chapter Text

"The moment I saw my Blitzy Blitz on my tv screen, about to be executed, I just had to go save him. Consequences be damned! I was so focused on saving Blitz’s life, I ended up ruining my own. My actions cost me my title, my powers, my home… my daughter. I’m now a pariah to all of hell and I can’t do anything about it.

 Well at least now Blitz is safe, well better than safe actually, since he is now being hailed as “the hero imp” who narrowly escaped death in satans court set up by the evil Goetia prince to cover up his own nefarious deeds. How far from the truth. I wondered what these new fans would think if they learned he and I were… what even were they? Were they ever really anything?

Blitz taking me in serve as payment for saving him and his team, but how long will that action actually give me? A few months? Weeks? Days? What will I do when Blitz tells me to leave and is done with me again…"

Stolas thought as struggled to fall asleep on Blitz's old couch. 

"How could anyone sleep on this?"

"Miss Verosika is here… I thought she hated Blitz, but apparently they had just reconciled. Huh… I’m so confused… I mean when I last saw them at that accursed party one month ago. (Looking back on it, that party wasn’t that great, although I did met that nice incubus)

But I do remember seeing Blitz being chased out of the party and right after Verosika ended it.

Were they attempting to reconcile then too? Right after I turn away Blitz? Did accepting that incubus offer to dance pushed blitz to put his focus onto Verosika instead? If he did, I wouldn’t have thought miss Mayday to be that willing to forgive him. For heaven sake, the woman gleefully stabbed a Blitz shaped cake and encouraged me to sing my heart out while insisting I was not the problem, he was. (Or that's what she wanted me and others to think?... No that’s not it)

Maybe I just misunderstood what kind of relationship they had, like how I misunderstood what my relationship with Blitz Blitzo  was… (I wish I had my happy pills.)

Verosika, a woman whose heart was as broken as mine, is enjoying breakfast and laughing with Blitzo like they are still together. How? Why are they so relaxed towards each other? They are not screaming at each other, throwing things or just being rude.. why is Verosika so different from before? (Besides being sober) why is Blitzo so kind now? (Why not before?)"

Stolas's thought as he and Loona eat their breakfast while watching Blitz and Verosika talked happily. 

"What happened between them?"

"A son. That's why. Blitzo has a son… with Verosika… and she never told him until now? How could she keep their child a secret from him? Does the child know about his father? Is Miss Mayday a good mother? (She’s not like Stella is she? No she could never be like that vile woman, right?)

She's a good mother.  Looking at her crying in front of us, I can see her tears are very much real, so is the pain she dealt with while raising a child without the help of the other parent."

"She really never hated him, did she? Her heart would never let her forget Blitzo, she was just like me."  Stolas thought as Verosika explains everything. 

"Me saving Blitzo didn’t really help me understand what is to me, but it did help Verosika understand apparently. Blitzo is her son’s father. Blitzo is the one Verosika still love. (Do Blitzo feel the same too?)

The moment we heard the small child voice on speaker phone, it was clear, Blitzo is the one Verosika and her son need right now (more than I would ever need).

It was fine for Blitzo to go leave to meet his son, not like I had any right to stop him. I could never get in the way of a father reuniting with their child, if I can go see Octavia right now, I would go with no hesitation."

Stolas thought as he watched Blitzo and Verosika portal out of the apartment. 

 "I wish I could see my Via."

"I remember Octavia told she talking with Loona on the internet for a few months now(after their time together in the human world), so I was hoping I would be able to find some kind of relationship with her. Loona is my daughter's friend and Blitzo's daughter, I should made the effort, right?

Stolas reminds himself of what let him repeatedly apologizing to an annoyed Loona in a park.

"I just wanted to connect with her, how did it go wrong? Small talks didn't work and looking at her texts with Beelzebub was a mistake, so why did I thought asking her about her opinion on Blazin was a good idea?

 She just learned about the child, I should have expected there were some conflicted feelings about things right now. (But no I kept asking.)

Loona then took me to handle some errands and somehow it made things worse. I didn’t know I had to wait in line at the store ( I never wait in lines. My servants always have the fridge and pastry always stocked.) I didn’t mean to flood the laundromat (my servants made doing laundry look so easy). And I’m still so confused why that waitress would spit in my food. (My servants would never.)

I tried my best to not be a bother, focusing a family nearby and started talking about Via.

Then Loona started crying. 

(I keep causing trouble for her. Like I did for Blitzo and Octavia.)

I tried helping. She push me away.

 A crowd is forming. Screaming at me. Keeping Loona away.

I tried to explain myself,  but I'm knocked down by a something or someone? I heard.... Emberlynn kick?"

Stolas was jump kicked to the ground by a sinner in a "Sexier than Stolas" shirt.

"Am I a bad person?

 This Emberlynn Pinkle woman claimed that Blitzo locked himself away for a month after I broke his heart? But he broke mine and many others? But I almost got him killed, solicit him for sex and sang that fucking song....

Maybe I am a motherfucker."

"I’m so grateful for lady Beelzebub to help me and loona in our time of need. Getting us away from the angry mob, bringing us to her home and making me some delicious fried rats. (Way better than the breakfast Blitzo made me.)

I do wish she stopped worrying herself about making amends. (Wish I can.) And the fact she knew the potential of Blitzo and Verosika reconciliation and she supported it. (Wish I can do that too.)

And atleast now I can understand why Loona had issues with everything going on....oh my Lucifer. 

Loonas past is....Why? How could those two called themselves parents?!?!? Loona shouldn’t had to anything like! Not as a child or an adult.

If only I can get my hands on....What could I do?

I have no connection to find them, no power or title to use against them. What connection to Loona do I even have to even do something?

I can only really call Blitzo to let him know? (He's her father, he the one to handle things.)"

Stolas thought as he left Beelzebub handle Loona, so he to go call Blitzo.

"This is all I can do now, I can’t offer anything else."

Well I'll see you later" Beelzebub said before ending the call.

"Sorry for ending the call, you probably wanted to talk to him some more or say bye"

Beelzebub handed Stolas back his phone with her free hand, she still holding the sleeping Loona with her other arms.

Stolas look down at his phone, not responding or anything. 

Bee now looks at the goetia in concern, "Stolas, are you ok?"

"No. I don't think I am." "Don’t know if I ever was."
