good niiiight! love you!! 💕💕💕
[ Monika sets her phone down after giggling at it. This was what it felt like to be a teenager, huh? Hours long conversations, talking about nothing and everything...to think she'd been missing out on it.
But though she'd love to continue, sleep is calling. It'd been coming a little easier these days, which was nice, but it was still a struggle to give in to willingly walking into the void 2.0. At least she'd have something to look forward to when she woke back up...
After switching a nightlight on and the lamp off, she settles into bed, quickly drifting off since she'd stayed up far later than she probably should've. But hey, the sooner she got through this? The better. ]

[ She's had some time to think. To contemplate. So she does what she does best and puts pen to paper--or in this case, fingers to phone--to consolidate her thoughts and give them new, deeper meaning. ]
Altar
I know I'm not the first
And I'll always be the last
But you hold something special in you
That I can't seem to grasp
A teetering tower of torrential thoughts
None that are easy to pluck away
Without making the whole stack fall
But I'll always fall with you.
Through the fire and brimstone
Through the soft clouds and ice
No matter the burn...
Wouldn't that be nice?
Hand in hand, we'll get through it all
Because love saves from all
Love gives and forgives to all
Love destroys and builds for all
And I'll always fall for you.
Down on my knees for you, I pray
I pray for perfection, for predilection,
That forever won't be just another stanza's refrain...
That together, our kingdom will flourish
Fruitful and full of life fulfilling
Because what is forever if there's no one for it?
Because what is forever without you by my side?
King and queen,
God and goddess ethene,
Two puzzle pieces piecing parts in places
No one thought would ever meet...
Because I said forever
And forever
I'll cry at your feet.

[ Here it comes, the dreaded message that pops up at least once in every relationship. It's probably not great that it's come so soon, but...there's no way she can let what just went down go unchecked. ]
we need to talk
we need to talk
[ This was an unmitigated disaster. That doesn't mean she's going to give up, though, not when love was involved! Sure, this looked a little bad, but it was just a big misunderstanding that happened to absolutely be what it looked like...
Still, she could fix it. And she was going to. A little talk, a little time, and this would all blow over!
Her forehead thumps lightly against his door. Clearly, that wasn't going to be an easy task. She's been knocking so much that her knuckles are stinging and red. With a sigh, she pulls out her phone and taps out a message. ]
come onnn. i'm not going to go away until you let me in
i'll stay here all night and day
just talk to me please

[ Just in case her little poem didn't signal she's not happy, she figures this'll make it crystal clear. You know, with as few words as possible, because typing all that had hurt. ]
asshole
[ She weakly tosses her phone away to the floor, staring up at the ceiling of her room. He can try all his usual tricks to try to get her attention, but she doesn't care. She'll just wallow in her misery while the phone goes nuts. ]

Hey, kid. God. Whatever.
Two things; got what I want for the voice activation of my gun.
And can you build me a remote charger? Something where I can put in its holster and have it charge up based on kinetic energy when I walk.

[Look at this character development! Belladonna's learning to text! Or get used to texting, rather. She understood the concept pretty quickly, but isn't so efficient with it.]
Hello! I hope you aren't busy, and that this message finds you having a wonderful time with whatever you may be doing! I was wondering if you had some time to help me with a problem I've been having? It's my turn now to ask for advice, haha! :)!!

[ This is peak gen Z, sending a text to someone who is literally a few feet away from her, but whatever. It keeps her from having to roll over on her already unbearably uncomfortable bed. And from having to talk, too! It'll use too much energy and she's already hot enough, even when lounging around in her bra and underwear. Ugh, what'd she'd give for a fan, or a servant demon to fan her. It's what a goddess deserves! ]

[While Technical Boy was cooling off and cleaning up, Mega's returned to their suite. It's remarkable, perhaps, how the world continues to go on as if nothing happened. While there'd been fighting and betrayal and the end of something important, Mega had been off on a simpler adventure, enjoying the playground unironically as it was presented to him. A pair of balloons bump against the ceiling above him as the door opening displaces the air.
Mega's welcoming smile is wide as ever at the face of a beloved roommate. Hello, friend.]
Hi! I brought back extra funnel cake for everyone. Sorry I didn't send a message ahead. I didn't mean to get your hands dirty right after you've cleaned them.

[ One day, who knows when, Technical Boy will surely have to come across something he hasn't worn in a while, because Hell does not allow for endless options. On that day, in the pocket of the pants he'd worn one sultry night in an abandoned movie theater, there'll be an unfamiliar lump tucked away, because she figured it'd take him a while to work his way back to said pants. It's multiple pages rolled up neatly, tied up with a thin blue ribbon. On it reads a small message:
Give this back to me once you find that piano so I can finish it! ♥
Inside, it's not what he may have expected, as the note hinted at. She'd promised to write him a poem with her pen, but she eventually decided to go beyond. With the blank staff paper she'd found in the library, she crafted something more, pages carefully filled in with prospective notes, and underneath those, her handwritten lyrics.
New Reality (work in progress!!), the top says, Written by: Monika. Below, in common time and meant to be at a moderate tempo, is her song for him. ]
One day, someday
We'll be hand in hand
Maybe in a quiet park
Or with toes in warm sand
The world's a summer symphony
Or it's a cozy winter's night
But as long as there's a you and me
Everything is right
With you, everything is right
You'll take me from the red, green, blue
Forever I will walk with you
A new reality, a special hue
You helped me write something new
And I never knew I could have my dream come true
Every day, I'll say
All the words in my broken heart
You'll always know about the way
I feel even when we part
Our home's a blossom in the spring
And your touch a kiss on a crisp fall eve
Because with all the love you bring
Forever, I'll believe
With you, I will believe
You'll take me from the red, green, blue
Forever I will walk with you
A new reality, a special hue
You helped me write something new
And I never knew I could have my dream come true
And when I think all's said and done
My pen is dry, my words are none
You'll find a way to make me see
I'm part of your reality
You'll take me from the red, green, blue
Forever I will walk with you
A new reality, a special hue
You helped me write something new
And I never knew I could have my dream come true
And it's all because of you
And it's all because of you

[a few hours after kaiba had supposedly locked tech out, there's a soft knock at his door.
actually, it's more of a scratch, followed by a low whimper that was decidedly draconic. should tech choose to open the door, he'll find a pretty white whelp there. kaiba's precious princess, kisara, who was spoiled and doted upon and loved as he loved little else. shy but smart as a whip, she hops up and down, trying to get his attention however she could.
it looks like she wants tech to come along. it's not too hard to guess where.]

So. Casual question.
What's your plan here in Hell?

[ She hasn't heard from him since he left for the trip, it's been a while and she's got a bad feeling she was right about it being a trap. ]
where the fuck are you?
is this you disappearing me like you warned me about?
well fuck you
sorry I didn't mean that, I hope you're okay
fuck maybe you don't even know who this is if you already upgraded or whatever
[ fuck, fuck, fuck ]
ignore this

[Hazel being Hazel, she's hardly as anxious for the return of the mission-goers are some others might be, but that doesn't mean she isn't paying attention. As soon as she notices more bodies appearing, she starts looking for Tech. Aside from being, well, his wife, things just exceptionally suck when he isn't around. It's like all the fun left with him.
Or at least, like, 80% of the fun, because she's pretty fun, on her own.
Anyway, she'll check his room, first, in lieu of sending him a message, and if he's not there she'll be on the lookout at his usual haunts until spotting his familiar mug and breaking out into a grin.]
Aren't you a sight for sore eyes? Dude, you've been gone for basically, like, ever.

I'm so fucking tired right now but at least I got out of satan's asylum and my powers are back and I need a fucking nap but I know I can't sleep until this shit is over

what kind of music do frogs listen to?
[So after getting this spicy little number, a flustered and red-faced Belladonna is all but scouring Penance to try and find Tech. She'll start with his room, of course, but move on to other venues if he doesn't appear to be there.
This is the first card she's received, and being the kind of young woman to take everything at face value, is definitely thinking that this was the intended message.]
Um...
[Once she does find him, she's not sure if she should be stern or questioning. Ultimately, Belladonna settles (unintentionally) on a frantic sort of squeak as she holds the card in her clenched hands.]
Sorry, I...I'm sorry, I had to ask you about this in person!

[ Her message comes in the middle of some sleepless night. She doesn't expect a reply, and doesn't really want one, but...she wanted to say this to him. With how the goblin cards have been clearly failing her, this seems the safest way to do so. And, in a way, it's kind of like old times, so maybe that'll make it mean more. ]
i hope you're okay
[ There's plenty more she could write. Plenty more she'd love to say. But, for once, she thinks a few simple words are just what's needed. ]

It hadn't taken much for him to join in the clean up. As much as he would rather not step foot there again he is not about to leave the clean up of such destruction to others without lifting a finger to help.
He has cleared up from such destruction before, here in hell and before in Japan. He didn't need whips or other punishments to drive him. Which didn't mean he was free of them, the demons seemed to like hurting them, even without much cause.
He was currently shifting rubble, moving it from the road down to large piles, where it could be carried away further.
He pauses at one shop, recognising it. Realising what street he is on. He frowned and bent down to pick up the chunk of roof tile from the floor.
