@val-the-bun you are Evil. You are evil putting this in my inbox.
More were-harpy Vaggie but it's sad now and everything HURTS
(copy pasted here bc the format in the ask got effed but i refuse to suffer this alone)
val-the-bun asked:
And then, of course, *the trial happens*.
And *the absolute shit timing of the fallout*.
Charlie is too stuck in her own spiral while vaggie just... Tries to hole up on her own (her usual 'nest' was in their suite. But she didnt want charlie to have to deal with her).
Charlie is curled up on vaggie's side of the bed, buried in blankets while she questions if anything they had was real.
While vaggie is in agony for the first time in three years since she'd started changing. Every fiber of her being wants to call for charlie. Yearns for that safety... but instead she bites her tongue and just curls in on herself, alone in the room she hastily barred shut. ~~She deserves this. To be alone.~~
Not sure which hazbin is the one to hear vaggie's pain and tries to check on her (let's go with angel and husk).
The hasty barricade she put on the door isnt enough. Not when the others are trying to force it open.
Vaggie tries to scream for them to go away. The last scrap of clarity she has before that warning turns into a predatory *shriek*. Vaggie's monster form tears apart the already falling barricade, and bursts into the hall.
'WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!'
'Fuck if I know, just run! Angel, hurry up!'
Vaggie is *tearing through the halls*, jaws snapping after Husk and Angel. They manage to hit the lobby, Husky grabbing Angel and flying like his life depends on it.
Meanwhile monster vaggie leaps after them... *right into the chandelier*.
Charlie hears the sound of that distant, shattering crash down below, and she *realizes*. Suddenly those painful worries have to get shoved down as charlie bolts out of their room.
'Please dont hurt anyone. Please, please, *please...!'*
Charlie's heart sinks as the shadows around the hotel start to writhe, and radio static fills the air.
'My my, what a surprising turn!'
Vaggie is *shrieking*, thrashing against shadowy tendrils as she tries to claw at Alastor.
'Now now. *Stay down*'
A rap of his cane, and vaggie's practically being crushed into the floor.
'What the fuck is wrong with you?!'
Husk is holding Angel back, looking away as Alastor starts to raise his hand. He cant watch this...
'Let her go.'
Alastor freezes when he feels the tip of an angelic spear under his chin.
There, standing at his side, in her full demon form, *is Charlie*.
'Ah, miss Charlotte. Lovely to see--'
'Let. Her. *Go!'*
For a moment, everything is quiet except for the sounds of vagging struggling, her talons digging into the floor. She's bleeding, golden blood pooling on the lobby floor... *And dripping from the claws on Alastor's hand.*
'Oh, very well. Good luck!'
Vaggie is snarling when Alastor lets her go. She starts getting ready to pounce when Charlie steps in front of her, spear in hand. Vaggie starts backing away, looking less like a predator and more... *like a cornered animal*. Her whole body seems coiled to run away as she keeps backing up, snarling and shrieking more in warning than anything else.
'Was it a lie?'
Vaggie shrieks at her, swiping at the air in the hopes Charlie would stay away.
'When you told me you didnt know what this was, was it a lie?'
Angel starts to step forward, but husk grabs his arm.
'Just let them do this...'
'Did. You. Lie?!'
Vaggie backs right into the wall, feathers flaring with a hiss.
'Was any of it real?'
Charlie can feel the tears on her cheeks. But what she wasnt expecting was to see tears in Vaggie's eye... Even as she snarled, and shrieked, and snapped her fangs, she was crying.
Charlie presses forward, Vaggie raising up over Charlie with a hawk-like screech, talons lashing out... But they dont connect, her talons *trembling* as they stilled inches from Charlie's face, her own spear aimed at her chest. Vaggie's eye is wild and afraid, but Charlie can see the *pain* there, too. She let out another shriek, closing her eye like she was bracing for the inevitable...

*Husk napping in a corner of the hotel lobby, wrapped up in spider silk*
Charlie: Wow Angel, I didn't know you made Husk a hammock with your web!
Angel: I didn't.
Angel: It was a regular web I shot because I was getting backed up. He didn't see it and walked right into it.
Angel: He gave up trying to free himself after a while and just fell asleep in it.
Vaggie: Did he tell you all that?
Angel: Nah, I was sitting right here, watching it all go down.
Vaggie: ...And you didn't help him out?
Angel: He didn't put a strawberry in my daiquiri today, this is his karmic retribution.
Charlie: But didn't Fat Nuggets eat them all yesterday?
Angel: Do YOU want to sleep in a web too?!

in honour of the playoffs, here's one of the dumbest things i've thought up in a while: every series of the first round, titled in the style of "Battle of Alberta" based on something that the teams have in common:
EAST:
Battle of the Sebastian Ahos: no matter what happens, a team with a Sebastian Aho on the roster will move on to the next round
Battle of the Hudson: the Hudson River is the body of water across which Devils and Rangers fans will hurl projectiles at each other during the course of 4-7 games
Battle of the Rats: Brad Marchand vs Matthew Tkachuk while the rest of the league watches with popcorn
Battle of the Same Colour Scheme: I categorically guarantee a team that wears blue and white with a black alternate jersey will win this series
WEST:
Battle of Manitoba: the Brandon Wheat Kings are to Kelly McCrimmon's VGK what the Soo Greyhounds are to Kyle Dubas' Leafs
Battle of Minnesota: it's just so cool to see Jake Oettinger get to play for his home-state Minnesota North Stars
Battle of the Gretzky Trade: if TNT doesn't have him on the broadcast panel for this series then what's the point
Battle of Philipp Grubauer (and Burky!): hey Seattle, where'd you get your big free agent signings from! ...oh? well. this might get awkward.

If you're still taking them, I'd LOVE some guardian angel neil !!! I literally think about him all the time
WIP Wednesday (3/20) | Guardian Angel Neil AU (Part 138)
“No,” Aaron says, stepping into his way. “Seriously. Who is she? What’s her name?”
Alright, now Andrew is seriously confused. “Whose name exactly?”
“The girl you’ve been sneaking off to see.” Aaron says as if it’s obvious. Andrew can’t help but cackle. That’s what this is about? Really? How hypocritical considering where Aaron spends his time between classes on Mondays and Wednesdays.
“You are barking up the wrong tree, Aaron. There’s no girl. I keep my promises,” Andrew says, watching his brother’s brow furrow. He’d like to tack on a ‘unlike some people’, but he finds he hasn’t got the energy to argue about this tonight. He needs some privacy to freak out about his angel.
“Then where have you been going?” questions Aaron a bit too loud from the way Kevin glances up. He starts to take his headphones off, but Andrew holds up a hand.
“You’ve got it backwards, I’m afraid. You’re not my keeper, I’m yours,” Andrew tells him. “And it’s none of your business where I’ve been.”
Before Aaron can open his mouth again, Nicky comes out of the bedroom.
