((Request by Mariana6980 Request: In The Tailor and the Owl Error ends up appearing when he was a child on one of Stolas's birthdays and just ignores everyone except Stolas and gives him something similar to something he gave to Andrealphus(Yeti) on his birthday, what would everyone's reaction be to the fact that Stolas' "imaginary" friend is real? )

Moxxie will admit. What they're doing would probably be out of character for them. Let alone to do something so risky.

Actually, risky might not be the right word.

Possible nuisances?

Sure, let's go with that one.

But after looking back last year they personally saw how those two brats treated Frogmouth. Which resulted in a blackout in the seven rings of Hell. They thought. Let everyone shut up about this imaginary nonsense once and for all.

"Moxxie."

Moxxie look at Maria. Tilt their head. Sees their Madre had this look. Did tell her the plan. Sure, they could have kept it secret. They have lots of secrets that probably will never be brought out around Stolas and anyone else. This one kind a big what they are doing. Let alone passed their comfort zone.

"I still think this plan of your going to be hectic." For peak sakes Stolas doesn't even know 'Puppet' it technically an Imp. That is just the beginning of it! Well, he could have an idea when parts of the mask broke up. Yet, never said anything. It worries her and makes her a bit protective. Just telling Moxxie to be careful with every meetup. This is her child safety as well.

Moxxie head down a little.

"Do make sure to record it." Still, may have certain distrust for nobles. She does think Stolas should get back at those brats. Her child helps a bonus.

This is why Moxxie will murder anyone if they dare ever try to hurt their Madre.

"So, got an idea how you going to do this?"

Going to wing it.

Stolas stared at the letter that was in their hands. Well, a card. It was confusing but also made them very curious. Along with felt a bit happy to read the words Happy Birthday from Puppet along with their mysterious parent.

Right his Birthday.

He is turning twelve now.

First he goes to spend alone in the morning beside his butler, who wished them a Happy Birthday. Then later a 'small' party as there will be guest over. You think he would mind that. It's just that most of them would be guests they won't be very thrilled to see. Those being like Stella, Andrealphus and their own friends invited over to this party of theirs. The adults it depends but rarely interact with them. Family members they forget at times are family unless they rarely get togethers. Couldn't even tell you who exactly could be a half-sibling or cousin. Other children as well like the duel a few months back. It would be kind of nice to see Leo along with another. Random meet up at times as the boy is not cruel. His uncle is still a scary being. Still, Stolas doesn't even feel overjoyed that his father will be there as well.

A small sigh as he glances back at the letter.

A surprise will be there.

At least he'll have something exciting to see after the party. So, he can bare it for a few hours. The pre-teens cleanup for breakfast. While the mansion is getting the place ready for the party. He enjoyed the meal as he thanked the older butler. One of the few he enjoys to be part of his life. Never mock him about Puppet. It does make Stolas wonder at times if he doesn't say anything because of position or pity. But he doesn't let that cloud his mind.

So, as the hours passed the party got closer. Paimon arrived first. Barely a brief talk, besides a Happy Birthday, didn't even have time to open gifts and stand at the door to welcome guests. Along with a comment to not slouch and smile. Don't start acting like one those pre-teens who get snippy.

End this party all ready.

Ars Goetias and other nobles arrived. Really Stolas thinks it to many but knowing his father he probably plans this. Or his bride-to be family for connection reasons. They held back their tongue when, like Stella, Andrealphus arrived. Stella not pushing it as Paimon was by Stolas, along with the looks from her own family. Great can already guess later will insult him later with her crew. Andrealphus might join in or just hang out with the 'older' guest. Stolas did relax as Leo and his family arrived.

The party itself inside and outside in the back section of the mansion. Stolas just being dragged around by his father to be like reintroduced to others, positions, job and witty talks. A reminder these are some of your peers. One you will be working with when you take the seat in a few years. One or two were like a half-sibling.

Great just love to be reminded of their duty of their job. It wasn't even the duty in general. Besides that, whole meltdown means that everything their learning isn't everything! But a reminder about when they will be married. Marry to Stella.

"Father where the wine."

"How old are you again."

"Isn't he twelve?"

"Twelve! You should have started all ready but do it after the party. Don't need your lack of tolerance to disturb your own party. That reminds me of the time when I first started drinking- "

Stolas ready to swipe a glass out of spite.

Especially as he was told to go mingle with his bride to be and the other children. Along with a threat to not be being bored or hide anywhere. Aka don't embarrass Paimon. This family. It was the same as always when he was around Stella and the others. Andrealphus elsewhere talking to guest but hope to not interact with the older teen. Stolas is doing his best to ignore the others besides small word exchange. That would result in Stella sneering at him.

"So, I don't see any Puppet."

"Right where the Puppet now Stolas?"

"Not going to grace us with our presence? Too good or you now getting out that imagination stage."

A fist clenched up slightly as he kept it to himself. Of, course he did get some looks from a few others in the group who were close by or lounging around. Never heard of this Puppet. It made the owl want to scurry away as he knew none of them would believe him either. Will think the same like everyone else. That the future Prince is still a child. Stella and her buddies talk very rudely about him and his imaginary friends. It was quite rude and mean as always. The girl is not holding back as always. The cruel smirk formed around her beak. The other whispering and snicking now.

He wanted to so badly to leave this party.

He wanted to be alone.

Yet, he couldn't get that as he had to keep going as it was soon time to eat cake. It was his favorite. He hope their enough left to save a slice or two for Puppet. Then was time to open a gift as everyone came inside. He sits on the chair as one gift after another brought up to him to unwrap. Didn't need to feel how the stares were really on the gifts along with his reactions. Some he did have to fake very easily. Gifts he really didn't want, already had or felt like nobody actually bothered to know what he liked. For, peak sake at least Stella family could have tried harder as she keeps complaining about his hobbies. Can already feel either after everyone left to the next visits she'll be looking through. What should be 'kept' or put away? Bet Andrealphus will come by to 'borrow' a gift as well.

We went outside while everyone else stayed inside. Didn't even feel like a Birthday anymore but a reason to get together. Could see maybe 2 or 3 demons try to approach him but would get pulled away to talk. A small sigh to himself. Wish he brought a watch out now to know the time.

"Frogmouth?"

"Puppet I thought we made agreement not on my Birthday." Stolas stopped speaking as his eyes went wide. He turns around and gaped.

The short-masked figure wearing a coat with different star symbols just stood there at one side of the mansion. While holding a neatly wrapped present. Barely made a few steps before being swooped up by a very excited owl.

He couldn't believe it. Puppet actually came to his party. They are actually here. For others to see. Out of their comfort zone from space. Stolas pulled back. While they were so thrilled to see them here, he was worried. Before he could say anything, they beat him to that first.

"Happy Birthday." Held the gift up awkwardly. It's not the first time to give them a gift. It just still feels weird sometimes. Wants to tug the hood down and mess with their scarf.

"You actually are here."

"Did you read the letter?"

Stolas nods yes.

"Well, tadda." Motion themselves awkwardly. All right, not the best plan but hey they think they're winging it. Plus, we're doing this for him. "Are you okay?"

Stolas anime cries as he hugs Puppet again. Blabbering something about them being amazing. Owes them. Then another about stabbing anyone. That one they could have just imagined hearing. Finally let go as Puppet made a comment about loosening up now. So, he did.

"Here." Hands them the gift.

Stolas holds the present. He still had questions but right now. Right there. He was quite giddy about what Puppet got him. Began to open up the packaging with excitement. Along with picking up a bit of weight. Once the paper was gone. It was a box. He opens what was inside the box. Blink as he puts it down and pulls out the item. It look like a normal box at first glance. Nothing too fancy of the appearance. Then he opens up the lid. He was greeted to gentle yet soothing violin melody fill the backyard. Within the walls were intricate drawings of plants and flowers. It looks like his planets that he talks about and personally grown when he was showing Puppet the started from his garden. He even spotted a Venus flytrap or two. There was additional space to hold items and materials. However, the true centerpiece of the music box was a stone. The stone was fashioned into an unfamiliar shape of a flower. The 'petals' began to glow certain colors at the tunes of the music. The prince was solely focused on the stone and music.

"It's um not much. There is a key with it so nobody can get what is inside." Now I'm not sure if this was the right thing to get or not. Let alone for a prince. It was kind of considered a girl gift too. A jewelry music box of all things. Wasn't even focused on Stolas expression until he was pulled into a hug?

"Thank you, thank you I love it!" Stolas smiles brightly as he holds Puppet closely.

Stay still and let Stolas have this moment. "Welcome."

"I truly mean it. Thank you! How you get the stone to glow like this with the music? What flower is it? I thought you hated painting."

"I do."

"Then how- "Touch the inside as their eyes widen at the texture of the walls. "This is needlework?"

"Ding. Ding."

"How?"

"Magic."

"You just want to be lazy to not explain it."

"Correct Frogmouth."

Everyone else who even bothered to watch was still stunned, confused or just wondering why they were wearing masks. A few whispering about if this one of the party guest kids? Others were just awed or jealous seeing such a gift.

"Who the blazes is that?"

"Your kid?"

"No."

"Your sounded very unsure."

"How dare you! It could be any of yours and denying it!"

"Enough. Not every brat Paimon."

"Exactly!"

"Besides no one on your family able to get your boy to smile like that."

"Burn!"

"Marbas shut up."

"I bet it's Valefar."

"Ha! My money still on Paimon."

"Why you little prick? Maybe there your's Murmur! Got that magician vibe going on out there!"

"I'm a philosopher not a magician."

"And?"

"I don't see the difference."

"Me too."

"First off, rude ass. Second. Do I look like the type to possible just randomly bed just anyone?"

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Thank you?"

"We could ask the young brat. Which one is the fiancé again?"

"They're all useless." Points them out as their faces show confusion and unfamiliarity.

"Well buttocks."

"Or they could be an assassin?"

"Then their doing a terrible job."

"Unless that's why they want us to think."

"Just stop talking."

"Look will just get one of the guards to grab them, throw them out and question later."

"How you're not dead yet is just astonishing."

"This is why don't let you interrogate anymore."

"Oh, I see they arrived."Everyone spun to see the butler looking out the window. The mustache imp standing them professionally like he always has for years.

"Come again."

"Your highness that is Puppet out there."

A lot of cups and plates fell to the ground. Someone spit out their drink. Another rando yelling they owe them 10 souls.

"PUPPET!"

Puppet is apparently not imaginary.

Along with now a trigger word.

((Request by Artemis97080 Request: How about owl and tailor but Moxxie gets talked to married Stolas instead of Stella. ))

"You did what?"

"I panic!" Stolas eyes very wide as he clutches the feather on top of his head.

"So, you said that." Wide eyed stun behind their mask.

"I got away in time." A heavy groan. "I just couldn't take it anymore!"

"And you thought the best way to get back at your force bride to be. Was to tell her you're going to be married to someone else."

"Yes."

"That someone being Puppet."

"Yes."

"Aka me." Points at themselves.

"Yes." Stolas let out another groan. He was clearly embarrassed to even say such a thing. "I know. I wasn't thinking. Now I bet she already told everyone. Probably tell everyone her fiancé lost it. Rambling about going to 'married' their imaginary friend instead of her."

Can already picture the looks he will get whenever he shows himself. The whispers, the mocking tones or a look that is just disturbance. But if his father gets word of it. Can already picture the look on his face. He too was having enough of their 'childish display' of this Puppet. To grow up.

"Does this paint me as a mistress or something?"

"No! You're better than that!" Stolas gapped at them for thinking such a thing. Plus, they don't think it works like that. That's a question his father could answer. If he doesn't tear him to pieces being embarrassed further!

"Am I?"

Another groan as Stolas rubs his eyes as he sits down at his chair. The two are in Stolas office. It was a little odd sometimes to say even if he lived here practically as an egg.

"I have a question that been in this head of mine."

So, help him right now.

"So, who could disagree with this marriage?"

"Well, everyone in the Ares Goetia even the none family would be. "

"Not this one. I meant with the brat that your fiancé." Sees the confusion on his face. "Who can tell your Butler father and anyone else who thinks marriage actually will work. That's it's over. The wedding is not going to happen. They'll let you marry whoever even the weirdo."

"Who the weirdo in this situation?"

"Me Frogmouth."

"Well, technically speaking. There is King Bael. The sins could as well but out of all of them Asmodeus the ones who would maybe have listen being a king too. Or just tell us to see how it'll work out and stop bitching. The others wouldn't care about such a thing. After that well the rulers of Hell."

"Any ruler?"

"Well either of the two. Maybe the princess as well." Tilt his head as he stared at the short mask figure."

"..."

"Puppet what are you going to do?"

"I'll be back."

"Puppet tell me you're not killing anyone!"

"The correct term would be murder. Maybe assassination? No, waits that getting paid. But no to all that." Even if to them it's a simple answer but would be getting looks. Well, looks as if they got caught. But he didn't want fingers pointed at Stolas if someone tried to put the blame on him. So, I'm going to see if this way works instead. But first I need to do a little digging.

"Puppet."

"It'll be fine Frogmouth."

"I'm sorry."

Stop before they can open a portal. Glance back at the teen. The owl still looked embarrassed but there was this look they couldn't figure out. "What for?"

"For dragging you into this." Head down further with a little smile. "For making this awkward?"

"I'm just confused you pick me out of everyone you know." That is what really bugs them. It didn't make sense unless it was a trust thing. Which at that case can't really blame them

"I- "

"It doesn't matter. Just give me a few days."

"Okay?"

Two weeks later.

"Marry us."

Moxxie stood there in their clothing space wear. Held a gapping Stolas sleeve. Three others with them. One being a woman who still seem stunned but not as phased. While the other one, an older one, was just smiling very, very wide. The last with a mustache and his white spot make it looks like he wearing a monocle. He was still shocked at all that was happening but stayed close to Stolas.

The demoness looked at the five as they interrupted her tea time. Should be questioning how they got in to begin with. Instead, she was very intrigued in many ways. Along with the request. Demand? She places the cup down. "Is this Puppet?"

"Yes." Stolas wanted to cry for many reasons. One of them being this was happening. Two, even the Queen knows about the Puppet thing. Three, oh my gosh Puppet going to kill us all doing something so drastic. Four everyone going to be raising hell for this. Five Puppet going this far too actually protect them to not marry Stella.

The queen hums as her silver-blue eyes study them all. The were locked on the one with the mask. "You do realize 'Puppet' many won't like this?"

"Who?"

"The Goetias."

"Oh, them." Shrug and their tail point at the butler. "I just asked that one if they would have mind since they're the only one who raised Stolas."

"And?"

"Well, he standing right here with us."

Three of the four wanted to bury themselves in the ground. Or shake Moxxie how their speaking to her like this. While another one just smiling away like this was the best sitcom show happening in the life time.

"Anything else?"

"Oh, and this." Pull out an ancient looking scroll and toss it to her. Who caught it without looking? Watch her unopen it as she reads what is on it. Face neutral but her lips twitch. Like she trying to not to let her smile go wider.

"I approved if this comes to it. All most hope so too see what you would do." Place the scroll down and she looks at them.

"So?"

"Let's get you two married."

Stolas fainted.

~ ~ ~ ~

Done!

What do you all think?

Any questions?

Note Update: I'm actually beginning to really like doing these as Bundle Drabbles formats. Not all of them will be like this but many will probably continue to be like this. There will probably be an occasion for some to get their own post/specials (like this one request being center with the Owl and The Tailor). Will, just have to see how it'll turn out. So, just a heads up.

Until next time.

Bye, bye!
