Vani Strip Mall: Part 3

A/N: lmao remember when this was supposed to come out like a year ago? Good times. Anyway the saga continues. No read more because mobile sucks, but this one is shorter than the other two. See yall in 2023. This one kinda sucks ngl.

"Hi! Welcome to Chili's!" greets a motherly voice as the first customers of the day walk into the restaurant. Insinera took great pride in her business, and it was revered as the best Chili's in the entire state of Florida. It was no surprise with how much love she had put into the little place. She ran it with almost as much pride and joy as she raised her son Patch.

Speaking of, the staff was always kind to the lad. Insinera made sure that all the staff knew at least a little ASL before hiring them, seeing as that was how he communicated. She wanted to make sure that her son would be understood, at least a little bit, by those around him.

The mother-son duo loved working together, and just as always, everything was going splendidly. There were satisfied customers left and right. Food was coming out of the kitchen in a timely manner. Insinera was pleased, until she felt a slight tug on her uniform.

'Mom, there's a car on fire in the parking lot.'

"WHAT?!?!?" she let out a shreik.

Rest assured, the car was on fire. No one was hurt, thankfully, but it still kinda killed the buzz of the business day, especially after it exploded. The parking lot had to close quite a few spaces.

As she stood looking at the smoldering vehicle, she wondered why. Why did this happen. Her son didn't seem too phased by it, unlike the rest of the employees and clientele. She only heard him sigh.

'I told her not to do it.'

W h a t. "You.... you told who not to do it?" she questioned Patch.

'The blonde girl living in Xenzerin's vents,' he signed back.

Oh. For some reason, it all made sense now. Or did it? Who knows what that little girl is thinking. What she did know was that she had been coming by trying to meet her son for a couple days, but the store was always too busy. She must have thought this was the only way to slow it down. Where did she even get gasoline? Is it even wise to question that? The store couldn't remain open in the wake of this, so it looks like the blonde got her wish.

While the employees were more than happy to receive an impromptu day off from their boss, Insinera couldn't help but to feel disappointed that she had to throw the towel in early that day. However, watching her son play with that new feral child Xelzerin couldn't get rid of made her smile. Even if her business eventually went down, she would always have her boy. All was happy in the end.

Officer Null was still less than thrilled about the paperwork though. That girl was going to be the death of her.

Vani Strip Mall AU: The Second Part

Let's be real here, Stephan kinda hated his life. He had no idea how he even got into this situation in the first place. Well, it wasnt anything too horrible. He just worked in a stupid candy store, because what else is a broke art student to do? Normally, things like this wouldn't be so bad. It was a rather quiet store in a rather quiet strip mall. Who would complain, right?

He would. He would complain so much, and with good reasoning too. I mean, who in the world would ever want to work for Morzogo of all vanis? No one. That's who. The milk obsessed mad man drove fear into the hearts of any lactose intolerant person in a 250 mile radius, again, for good reason.

He would never stop with the milk. Those who surrounded the area began to affectionately refer to him as “The Milkman.” Everyone who had taken even one taste of his dairy products claimed them to be the most delicious they have ever experienced, like taking a glimpse into the pearly gates of heaven. Too bad Stephan could never feel that joy, if he could still feel most of anything at all that is. It’s a hard world for our youth, and only one constant rang through the young man’s brain as he stood brooding at the cash register for the nth time, “I should have just applied to Taco Bell.”

It seemed that things were constantly getting more and more hectic around the quiaint little storefronts, especially with that girl Xel had recently taken in. She would occassionally crash the shop, presumably for her own ammusement. Stephan didn’t care anymore, if such a word still existed in his vocabulary. If anything, he had taken a very small, begrudging liking to the little dirt-eating squirt. At least she was better than the boss.

“STEVEN! YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE THE COMBINATION I JUST CAME UP WITH!” right on cue, as always. The icy voice of Morzogo rang from the back end of the store. Stephan’s stomach dropped when he heard, the void it left filling with nothing but dread. He didn’t want to go through another taste testing session. He had tried to explain to the beast many times about his condition, but he was met with the same response every time, “Lactose intolerance is a myth, my boy.” This would never be worth his miniscule paycheck, that was for certain.

“I wonder if I could just get fired instead,” he muttered to himself as he made his way to face his boss. No amount of mental preparation could prepare him for what was to come. Behind those cold doors that housed the candy creation center, he saw the most aw inspiring horror human eyes had ever gazed upon. His eyes glazed, tears began flowing down his cheeks. He stood there, emotionless, motionless, for what felt like an eternity. The young man looked as if he were a statue.

Morzogo was in a milk bath. Where did he even get the bathtub? How did he get it inside when the doors are way too small to fit it in? Why was he even questioning things? “STEVE MY BOY! You must try this! My weary bones have not felt this good in ages.”

Before he could utter a single word, in one swift moment Morzogo had thrown the lad into the milk bath. It was warm. It was so very warm. His clothes were now soaked in milk. It may have been his imagination, a placebo, but he could swear he was beginning to break out into hives. There was only one thing he could ask in that moment. “Why? Why would you do this?”

The only reply he received, “Milk baths. Drinkable milk baths. They’re gonna be big.”

Yeah, he was about to apply to Taco Bell.

Vani Strip Mall: Part One

Author Note Thingie: 1) all characters belong to Monstrosity. im just writing a silly au. 2) credit for the creation of this au and its ideas goes to some of our Discord members. 3) this has been sitting in my drafts for a couple months now. blame adhd. 4) this is probably gonna be pretty ooc, but this is an AU fic about a bunch of world destroying monsters working in a strip mall WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME??? 5) enjoy

“Would the owner of the t-posing child currently standing on my cash register PLEASE COME GET YOUR DAUGHTER???”

Welcome to the world of Xelxerin. Sure, he may look like a monster, mostly because he is one, but more importantly, he is just a humble flower shop owner. The Vani of plant life took excellent care of his flowers and succulents. This made his shop, The Aberrant Garden, a hot spot for plant lovers. The day started out just like any other day for him. That quickly fell apart around twenty minutes after he opened.

“LIsten, kid, I’ll pay you to get off the register and go eat something at Chili’s or whatever,” he said, taking out his wallet and presenting her with a twenty dollar bill. The girl didn’t respond. She just kept her gaze straight ahead as she t-posed. Was she even blinking? What was she? Xelxerin put his head in his hands and sighed. By the time he looked up, she was gone. A throb of panic ate through his chest. A feral child is lose in his store, that should be great for business. He needed to stay calm. This isn’t a big deal! What’s the worst she could do? Eat the-

“Excuse me, sir, why is that child eating one of your plants?” Ohno. The customers were all staring at her as she munched on some gardenias like it was nothing. What was up with this kid? She was starting to scare him, and everyone else in the store for that matter.

Xelxerin, in a fit of emotion that could only be described as ‘EXCUSE ME WHAT??’, threw his arms out in front of him, gesturing towards the child and yelling, “WHERE ARE YOUR PARENTS????” Again, she didn’t respond, but there seemed to be a faint answer in her eyes as she swallowed the leaf. At that moment, he knew they weren’t around. Oh crap. Now what was he gonna do? He couldn’t just throw her out into the streets! He took out his phone and dialed a number. “NULL? Could you come here for a second?”

NULL, the strip’s lead security officer, was there within minutes. She took the child away with surprisingly little effort, and Xelzerin felt a little more at peace. Poor kid. He could only hope she had good things coming to her in the future. He could only hope.

The next morning, Xelzerin opened the doors to his shop, only to hear faint noises coming from the back. He slowly approached the source and found, to his shock, that the girl was back. Oh no. Not this again! But... she looked calmer this time. She didn’t even notice him approach as she gently tended to the plants in front of her. She treated them with such tender grace, clearly showing a talent for handling greenery. Well, when she wasn’t eating them of course. He was almost impressed. She did it just about as well as he. Xelzerin cleared his throat, catching her attention.

She turned around and grinned at him, holding a leaf in her mouth like it was a piece of straw, and said, “Heya, mister! Kaylee Tagates!” She held our her hand. “We met yesterday.” Oh, how could he forget.

He shook her hand. “Okay, uh, Xelzerin. What happend to-”

“Oof. Fake name?”

“.....Excuse me?”

“The nametag I found in the back says ‘Carnation.’ Are you lying to me, or did you just think your name was totally lame or something?”

“That’s not the point, kid.”

“Whatever you say, Carni.”

Xelxerin put his palm to his forehead. Now was not the time to discuss that phase. “Sure. Fine. Whatever just..... What happened to NULL?” he asked.

She stared at him, once again with that blank expression painted on her face. Did he even want to know?

She smiled, “I told her you were gonna take care of me.”

“...And she..... believed you?”

“Nope! So I ended up having to cuff her to her desk.”

Why was he not surprised. They only blinked at each other for a couple of minutes. Maybe refusing this child would bring about more chaos than letting her stay. Maybe shooing her away wasn’t worth it....... No. He wanted her gone. He took out his phone and dialed a number, but it went straight to voicemail. Moments later, he received a text from NULL with only three simple words, “your problem now”

He glanced back at her. She was smiling. It was a weird, kinda chaotic smile, yet it also seemed a bit sweet and genuine. Maybe he could still just pawn her off to Insinera! She liked taking in kids! But there was only one store between hers and his. She could still come back to torment him at any time. He sighed. Guess he had no choice. “Alright, kid, just...... just don’t eat the flowers, okay?” he instructed her.

“What about the dirt?”

“NO!”
