Error/Moxxie speaking

Flashback/Text

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Ivy has regrets.

Either you have regrets. Lie your ass off to cover up your regrets. Drink away. Get high. Can't comprehend feeling what regret like.

She had plenty. From her human life. Want and changes. Even when she died. But she learns over time and can't do anything about it. Either just suffered and over think it. Or get your ass up and actually move forward to do something. Even if just surviving here in Hell.

But she will never regret going on a date with that country imp gal.

Look Ivy knows she is risking a lot. Just dating in general. It's not like relationships don't happen. Met plenty of sinners and later on hellborns who are couples. Some were actually healthy. Okay a few defiantly are freaky, messed up or just have their weird taste. But you don't see a lot of hellborn or sinners have a serious relationship.

Reasons.

Well, for starters one a sinner. Sinner who can only die from a Holy Weapon. Maybe a possibility of a high strong hellborn, some of those snobby Goetias, could kill a sinner. Or regenerate painfully slower from their wrath. That was a good question to think about.

A hellborn. An imp no less that can practically die from anything. Even if they miraculously survive a long time. Even eventually old, old age can get them.

Ivy was one of those who never cared about that class bullshit. When you were on the end for being black, poor for a while, and a closeted lesbian. You get quite disgusted when you see that again. Let alone in Hell. If Ivy is going to dislike you it's because of your damn personality and attitude in general. Along with a few slang words.

Yet, Ivy will never regret asking Maria out, after the two friends started to really like each other. Were there ups and downs? Of course. Between different cultures, little issues, and just surviving. Ask Maria to move in with her not too long after. Got the whiskey business to slowly start up and was a good combo business with Ivy Cafe. Able to still send some back to Wrath with the locals back in Maria hometown. The two proud small business owner women staying together. Maria always runs back to Ivy once Extermination Day done every year. Not letting go. Three years of dating no regrets there. Didn't regret saying yes when Maria asked her to marry her. Then Maria took Ivy last name, Moore.

Maria one the rare damn few people, well demons, left she cared about in this hellhole. May not have a name like those overlords. But she is one you don't want to cross. Especially with her reputation in her area and the few secret connections she has. Many seem to forget in this ring not every sinner is an overlord. Even if a few could technically be. They are just lazy, lack funds, lack of territory or don't want eyes on them. Ivy is find with what she has, along with brought into her new life. Her and her little 'lobster'. 

But wow it is hot when she watches her Wrath gal show she isn't a pushover. Especially throwing out the 'druggies' or using a gun. Or that one time she spit whiskey on a moron trying to screw them over at the bank and lit them on a fire. One of her versions of her a 'Molotov'.

Then Maria surprised her with an unexpected call when she went to Wrath to check their property.

"Excuse me what?" Ivy on the phone. Just about ready to open the café.

"I found a kid. Like jeez Ivy I think someone threw them out here when the Hell tornado hit."

"What the fuck? Who would do such a thing?"

"Sadly, it's a lot more common than many think. Or at least died like with a family. I'm going to take them to the Doc. Got them to finally realize I won't hurt them after three hours."

"How old is this kid?"

"Maybe 3? 4? Try to bite me when I try to pet their head. He really doesn't like touch. A little vicious one...Oh my wrath."

"What?"

"They just threw one those damn hell rats. Like really, really far. I think the heat is getting to me."

"Well get some water, and take them to the Doc like you said." 

"Already on its honeysuckle. Should be back in a few days. Want to make sure everything is good on this side."

"You bet. Keep me posted."

"I will!" Maria hangs up and goes to open the door outside. "Say ready to go get a checkup?"

Moxxie let out a grumbling hiss as they slowly followed them to a truck.

Fuck that void!

No, seriously fuck that Void and extra trauma!

A few hours later.

"How it go?"

"Severally underweight, hooves need trimming, some visual issues, and a biter. He doesn't like to be touched at all. He won't speak but can write to give us a few ideas. Or grunt sounds. So, not mute just could be by choice. No one knows who they are or recognize them. Will do a search up and try to look around. But at this point just be like not bother trying to look with the predicament they were in."

"That's a bummer."

"Oh, and broke all the windows and glass when they did get touch. To be given shots just in case."

"Huh?"

"Yeah, Moxxie is quite something else. Not just with those marks."

"What you mean?"

"On their cheeks you got three white freckles on each side. Normal enough. But the other marks look like they are crying. But Ivy is not white. They are blue."

"Blue? Is that even a thing? Wait, did someone like paint or did tattoo on their face?"

"We don't know. But it actually looks like scars? Doc was quite stunned and stomped on not just that. Even their eye color as well. Moxxie something else."

"Moxxie the name."

"What they wrote down."

Silence on both sides.

"So, what now?"

"I don't know. I was going to stay a few days. Just to see if we get something. But Moxxie really doesn't know or quite possible forgot who their folks could be. Look so confused when I asked. It's either we find something or well the orphanage." Maria sounded bitter about either idea.

"How bad is it? The physical contact." Lean against the door.

"Only would touch a piece of fabric of my jeans. But like a few seconds. Then let go and would stay far away. Ivy the Doc and I think they may have been abused. It's not normal behavior even for those in Wrath."

"...Bring them here."

"What?"

"Let's bring them here and will figure it out from there."

"Ivy are you sure? I don't mind staying a few days and making sure."

"Well, we have been talking about it. Right?"

Ivy and Maria had talked about the idea of having a family. Adopt a child or an animal. It was one there if it happens. It happens moments. 

"We have."

"Then it settled will adopt Moxxie." They were actually doing this. Ivy wanted to almost laugh. Hasn't even physically met them and doing this.

"Are you positive?"

"I'm very positive."

"It's going to be tough but it'll be worth it. I'll find out about the paperwork and what you should do on your side."

"Alright and don't overwork yourself."

"Ivy, we already broke that rule. Especially, today." Laughter on the other side.

They sure did.

Along with all the updates Ivy has been getting from Maria. Seriously, why would they try to eat a cup? Or a whole mouse! Ivy getting the extra room ready settle for a bedroom. At least livable, no dangerous plants around and go from there.

A few days later Ivy got to see Moxxie.

Ivy blink as she stared at Moxxie. They were definitely small for an imp. A big scarf wraps around their neck to cover half their face. The back like a long tail. A red sweeter that touches the ground. Their tail wrapped around themselves in black wrappings. Wild white hair. Black and white horns. Yellow sclera with different eye color pupils just watching them.

Alright she got to admit the little one adorable.

"Moxxie this is Ivy. My wife, I told you about. The one from the picture I showed you." Maria smiles down at them.

Just gave her a head tilt.

"Hello." Ivy crouched down and handed it out to them.

Eyes just looking at her hand in suspicion along with the vine. Little grumble and glance down.

Defiantly, the pair got their work cut out. Even with Maria, who had already taken care of them for a few days.

"Say Moxxie I heard you like chocolate."

In an instant they look back at her again with wide eyes.

Thank you, lobster, for that detail.

"Mox just the cake not everything else." Maia tells Moxxie as they place the slice of chocolate cake down.

Moxxie pouts and reaches out to grab a piece. Not bothering to use the utensils.

"What you think?" Maria walks up to Ivy. The pair watch Moxxie.

"Got work cut up but should be worth it. Um what's with the wrapping on the tail?"

"Remember what I said about physical contact? Well, I really don't want any parts of their skin to touch. Not on their tail, hands and anywhere can be seen. Heck, I had to convince them wrappings don't work at the bottom of the hooves."

"Oh, boy." Really got their work cut out indeed. "No, talking?"

"If you count hissing, amused looks or grunts. Then that random screech."

"Well, that's a start, I guess. Do they understand they were adopted?" Watch them still eating but eyeing everything around the café. Their heads tilted at one of the plants right by them.

"I think so. When I told them they are living with us. They just seem shocked along with suspicious. Like expecting me to joke or something." Maria sighs and looks back at them. "Doc did say he willing to be their doctor for appointments. So, some back and forth."

"How thoughtful." Ivy will have a word with that Doctor too.

"Indeed."

Poke.

The pair jump and look down to see Moxxie right by them. Held the empty plate up to them.

"You done buddy?"

Moxxie nods yes.

"Alright let's show you to your room."

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Error, should start calling themselves Moxxie, has to admit living with Maria and Ivy was different.

Quite frankly everything with their current situation is different. Along with odd and filled with questions.

One they're alive.

Two they are an imp.  A young child no less.

Three they are still alive.

Four their memories kind of blurry. Like before the hell tornado in their new body. Even the memories before? Blocking that.

Five they are a freak and can't even be a normal looking imp.

Six sure Hell. Heaven. Whatever that means and not going to deal with it.

Seven again alive!

Okay they better stop before this mental list becomes to long. Could be a book of its own.

The former destroyer turned child imp been living with Maria and Ivy for like a month now. Well, a month and one week if you count staying with Maria. Always eyeing the pair if they might attack them or not. Even if there had been times Maria could have.

Yet, they just seem to try their best with them. Care so to speak.

It was something Moxxie just not use too. Even that child part of them feels confused.

Or asking themselves why they are staying?

They could have portal away anytime they wanted too. Ran off. Sneak away. Why are they staying for these two? Wouldn't their lives be better without them? Not in their way. Not be such a damn problem and mistake. Can't even behave like a normal kid since they don't even remember what that was like before. That slight fear if anyone found out what they truly are and try to destroy them. But not die.

Oh, yeah not thrilled they are still immortal. But that something to bitch about silently for another day.

Yet.

Yet, they still stayed and don't get it.

Maybe it is because of what those annoying codes told them.

Start over with your new chance of life.

That can't be it just it.

Right?

"Mox."

Snap out their thoughts and glance up at Maria.

"Ready to eat dinner buddy." Maria smiles down at them.

Shook their head no.

"Come on buddy you didn't eat breakfast or lunch." Sat down with them on the ground. Stay at their distance. Maria and Ivy learn over time to let Moxxie move at their pace. It was a slow, slow process. Especially, when the woman actually wants to hold or hug them.

Yet, when Ivy used their vines, they seemed content. Sure, at first Moxxie wasn't very thrilled and confused when they got grab by the vine. Even bite them and chew it. Then again they were almost about to fall on the ground when they were climbing the drawers to get to the cabinets. What? They wanted to get them a bowl they were talking about. Try to be useful living with them. Instead gave them a heart attack and bundled up in a vine.

Moxxie frown a little. Really wish they could explain to them, while trying to not sound weird, they don't need food. Or sleep. And when they do ask them to eat got to tell them not everything. It was ridiculous to Moxxie.

"If you eat. Ivy said she'll let you help her clean out the bowl of chocolate pudding for tonight."

Evil, smart woman when they use chocolate against them.

Agreed, and ate the food.

"Mox no we don- "

Bit the head off the fish and chew it. Right got to chew. Can be a nuisance sometimes to remove anything.

"I mean some cultures do eat the heads." Maria chuckles a bit while Ivy facepalm. At least they're not picky."

"Oh, for the-I see that smirk, Mox."

Indeed, they were smirking when they lift their scarf back up. The pudding is theirs now. Glance at the two talking. Ivy pouts with a fond look while Maria is laughing. Asking them what they think of the fish. Just nod their head yes while not fully paying attention. 

Guess it's not bad. Along with staying longer here than they expected.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~

If you asked Moxxie if they sleep. Their answer is no.

That's all you get. No.

No, they don't sleep. They don't nap. They'll close their eyes. But either because they are ignoring you or just thinking.

Can't even remember the last time they ever slept. Not counting being very knockout or body destroyed just be force back together. Because they were still 'awake' when it happened.

Wow Fate really screwed them over. Along with basically their whole life to play with their little 'toy'.

But any who?

Besides what the point of sleep for them.

It's not like they want to close their eyes that long, slowly fall conscious as screams filled their head up. Repeating over, over how many worlds they destroyed and ruin. Nightmares invade their mind when they already deal with it awake.

So, they were very, very confused each night being read bedtime stories. Or a random lullaby. Even just being talked too. Now when they are alone in their bedroom and the pair are sleeping. They usually just mess with their magic, the codes or get back to sewing. Just still figuring out many new things and what to do till one the two wake up. At the beginning they had to really listen as they would check constantly.

"Alright Mox anything you like to read?" Maria asked them. They didn't get a lot of story books for Moxxie. It wasn't a big collection. But they're going to hopefully get it widen soon.

Moxxie stares at her as they look at the bookshelf. A pair of new glasses sat on their faces. It was a little weird to wear glasses again. When they were still Error, they had a pair. Till the pair got shattered. Walk over to the bookshelf. A few of the titles are recognizable as it was already read to them. But it wasn't those they were looking for.

Now they rarely leave the home and café. Besides, that vision clinic visit. A talk about seeing Doctor Medea again in Wrath. The random shopping that they rather not deal with again unless necessary. It took Maria and Ivy long time to get Moxxie to understand they are finding spending money on them. Heck, the child shouldn't even worry about it to begin with.  But any who when they went shopping a few things were 'snuck' through their inventory.

Don't worry. They made sure no one saw it. Plus, the cameras did get destroyed for questionable reasons. Quite old and still new technologies were happening in Pride.

Pull out a few books and hand it to her.

Maria looks at the books. Stare a long time at the covers. Let alone the different page sizes. One of them is a novel. Where do these come from? Glance to see Moxxie tail tap one the books.

It looks like a book about space. Just drawing, art of stars, galaxies and little short stories on the side. "You want this?"

Moxxie nods yes.

"Alright kiddo." Began to get to work reading the book. Got to admit it was a bit interesting to read. Now and then wait as Moxxie would stare at the art. Notice how their eyes glint. Like a sad longing. "Did you know in Wrath we have this Festival Call the Pain Game? At the end of the game. We get to see a Red Moon curse down on to our crops. Not just the moon but parts of space as well. It tremendous."

Lift their head up and blink. Tilt their head. Slight curiosity in their eyes.

"If we have time will go this year. I think you'll really like it."

Stare and nod yes. Point at her. Along with the plant in their room.

"Ivy wouldn't be able to come." Get a frown. Right, they wouldn't really know. "Believe me if I could do it. I bring her over to Wrath and see my home ring."

Head down a little frown. Right that stupid rule about Sinners staying in Pride. Doesn't seem fair for the pair to not go to a festival together. If you were to ask them about the other Sinners. Would tell them they aren't their problem and to solve it themselves.

Point at the book and back at the plant. Just given a confused look. Start to do a hand motion like a camera.

"You want a picture?"

Nod yes and kept doing ridiculous hand gesture.

"Want us to bring a picture to her?" Got a faster nod yes. She smiles big with sparkling eyes. "Oh, Moxxie that so sweet of you! I bet Ivy will like that with the two of us. Can give it to her for the photo album."

Gave her an 'I'm not sweet' look.

Wait.... What a photo album?

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"Alright Mox let try again."

Moxxie step back.

"Come on we need to get those trim." Ivy frowned as the child just looked at her wearily. Along with the clippers.

Did an unhappy stomp.

The sinner sighs a little. Small frown. Try to figure out what to do. Right now, Maria was not home as she was doing a few errands. So, it was Ivy and Moxxie together. She has been noticing lately about the little one balance.

At first just well blame the age in general. Plus, they do wear that long sweat and scarf. But then remember a small detail when she remembers what a few goat demons who would trip. Complain about getting their hooves trimmed. Along with Maria mention they need to get them trim eventually.

Now, Ivy is trying to do that. But Moxxie was giving her a bit of a work out on this.

"Moxxie, I don't want you to get infection."

Moxxie frown a little out of confusion. Not like the pain hurts. Sure, the trip can be annoying. But infections? The word kind of sounds familiar.

Ivy sat down in front of him, finding a way to explain it simply. "So, your hooves don't stop growing, right? But because of that, they curl under your foot. That traps bacteria and other stuff. So along with the way it curls making it harder to walk and affecting your joints, you also have bacteria trapped in the hoof now. Which will cause infections that can seriously hurt you or even kill you. The scenario that doesn't involve true infection is hoof rot, and I doubt you want that!"

The Imp glanced down on the ground. The words did seem familiar to them. Rot they remembered feeling when their bones would fall off. It took a while for that to get destroyed. Then remember a certain AU they permanently erased. But that and this is different.

Right?

Ivy sighs. Rub her face. She knows children can be smart along with stubborn. But they are really pushing the stubborn card. The look at her arm with the vines.

"Moxxie. Maria and I don't want you to get sick. If your hooves aren't trimmed right, it'll affect your walking. In some cases, it makes it so you can't walk ever again."

Want to almost snort. It would be pure luck and miracle if they do get sick. Does wonder if it'll take long for parts to regrow back or not. Be a pain if that's not the case.

But they care.

That they are still trying to comprehend that.  The fact that they cared so much made him pause.

Glance at Ivy face. The worry and patient green eyes watching them.

Then he slowly sat down on the chair, fidgeting.

Ivy reaches out to touch their hooves. On instant try to kick her hand and move away fast. She already got kicked once. The little one definitely got some strength.

Moxxie forced himself to stop, gulping.

Ivy was being very gentle about it.

Some squirming and clenching the chair tightly.

She was being very careful not to cause pain, and gave him a break once she finished the first hoof.

Watch Moxxie lift their legs up and clutch them close to their body. Eye clench, little breathes and just try to hide away.

It was a sight the pair are use too. It was something they hated seeing. It was never easy along with had to force themselves to not physically comfort them. Or else they just either run off or screech terribly. Whoever raise Moxxie before really mess this little one up badly.

The small Imp did notice that his hoof felt a bit better. He just didn't like the touching right now.

Ivy already cleans up what she got.  Now waiting.

After about an hour he let her work on the other hoof.

Soon, she was done.

Stare down at their hooves.

They were a lot nicer looking.

Glance at Ivy as she finished cleaning.

"T-thanks..."

She stops. Glance back to see Moxxie jump off the chair and ran off. Blink and scratch her leave like ears. They did speak. Right?

She smiled a bit.

A few hours passed.

"What you two do today?" Maria came back and headed to their living room.

Sees the pair on the couch.

Goes to sit on Ivy lap and relax a bit. Moxxie on the other side of the couch. Far away, curled up, and stare at the tv. Glance at her, then right back.

"Moxxie let me trim his hooves."

Maria eyes widen. Then look at Moxxie. See their little hooves poke out.

Little smile as she relaxes against Ivy.

There we go.

Moxxie glance at the pair.

He didn't know how to feel.

The pair just relax and content. Ivy pet Maria hair. Maria tail on top of her leg. While the pair just watch the TV. Maria looks at them and smiles at him.

He smiled back, a tiny bit.

It's another step.

That was all that counted.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Moxxie finally held Maria tail and Ivy hand.

The two-woman cried of sheer joy at the trust they were slowly receiving. Even if it is not for a long time. But they will take it.

Anyone who says they are acting ridiculous can go walk in an acid tank!

Then eventually over the course of the next few months it got better. Either last longer. Or when they finally let them hold them. Has this look when they are done and be let go.

Again worth it.

What is not worth it is the many, many heart attacks their little feral child gave them!

Now there were challenges for the pair. Like for any other new parents. But began to pick up things Moxxie very much dislike. Don't worry a list of things that Moxxie like as they began to pick it up.

Now Maria and Ivy have no trouble watching Moxxie. Since the Café and Whiskey making business is in the see building, they live in. While the Café work is the first floor. The Whiskey side is actually in the basement. That got refurbished to work in for her business. Now there were little hiccups here and there. They kept Moxxie on the first floor in the kitchen. Made sure everything is safe for them and not grab anything that could hurt them. They can easily entertain themselves, or will check on them.

But then there were moments.

The child either scares them on purpose or has no fear in the slightest.

Ivy nearly fainted when Moxxie got in the oven with products that needed to be bake. Then try to eat the raw bake goods. The chocolate ones. Did she mention the oven was already on!

Maria was still trying to figure out if she was losing her mind when the basement door opened. Ran the down stairs in a flash and grab Moxxie in time before they fall in a barrel. They look so annoyed at her for saving their goat leg behind!

Or the damn time they used the baking utensils like a fort.

The other time they use dental floss to trip customers and robbers. Okay the last part is funny.

While Moxxie can be a ball of feral terror. They defiantly have their sweet moments. Like will hand them materials they wanted without asking. Or want to help with cooking, even just stirring the food.

Along with moments that should be questionable for a normal four-year-old.

Scratch that.

Normal four-year-old hellborn imp from Hell.

Eh. Who cares they adore their different child.

They already poisoned some drinks, broke a customer's neck and already got in their first parent fight. When anyone says a negative comment when they saw Moxxie.

Like they said before they adore their feral different child.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The destroyer turn imp stared at the TV. Half paying attention to the Spanish show.

Maria and Ivy were very surprise as well when they saw Moxxie watch it one day. It had to change when it started to get too violent. Got a pout about it. Want to know how hard it is to find Spanish soap operas for children that can watch it. Along with questions risen about Moxxie past before with this.

Very, hard!

So, they find anything Spanish, somewhat not stupid, and live action for children. Cartoon they might be lucky to pass. A random success.

Besides Moxxie like it and now they pick up a few helpful words.

But right now, not to focus on the show.

Moxxie turn to look at Maria and Ivy in the kitchen. Ivy hums as she waters the flowers. While Maria was making lunch. Maria turned and smiled at them. "You good over their Mox?"

Moxxie stared, looked down a little and then quietly whispered. "Madre, Mamá."

Ivy had wide eyes, turning to look at Moxxie. Did he just call them-?

Maria was the same way.

Both look at each other and back at Moxxie.

The little imp head down a bit. Look shyly embarrassed when they said that. Did they mess it up? Sure, it been a while they talk. Let alone talk to anyone. But their voice didn't sound that bad right? Was it too soon to say that?

Then Maria crouched down. "Moxxie...you sure that you're comfortable calling us that? You don't have to if you don't want to at all."

Moxxie stared at her for a while. Then slowly nod their heads yes.

Maria chuckles and arm out for Moxxie. Permission to hold them.

Roll their eyes but allowed it when they went in their arms. The nauseating fear of being touched crushed down as they been getting used to the pair contact.

Maria stood up and walked over to her taller wife. Moxxie just stared at Ivy reaction.

Ivy was looking so absolutely delighted. Which kind of made sense, because Sinners couldn't have children. She picked up Maria and held the pair.

Moxxie stare at the two nuzzling. So, get used to their lovey, dovey affection. Yet, this was calmer.

It felt weird to him.

Held close to Maria while Ivy slowly brushes their hair.

Close their eyes and relax.

They...liked this feeling.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Now Maria and Ivy haven't gone out for a while.

Which they aren't complaining about. They had Moxxie, along with work to keep them busy. Get plenty of time as well. Just been focused on their new family.

It was pure chance to go have a date night.

Only because they were lucky to have someone babysit Moxxie. Someone they know in Pride and not stupid enough to hurt the child. A long list of instructions left as well. But this sinner has already met Moxxie a couple of rare times.

Maria pacing back and forth in the living room. Mox just watches her.

"Maria?" Ivy walked out the bedroom and stopped her from pacing. "Hey will only be gone for two hours."

"I don't want to." Maria grumbled.

"Sure." Ivy quite understands. Were unsure they should go out as well. Have Moxxie almost a year now. It was crazy how much time flies. But today was a late wedding anniversary out. Since last month wasn't a good time. "Come now it'll be fine."

"You would be nervous if Moxxie was staying with Susie."

"Only because that boy of hers."

"Rattles?"

The woman snickered at the nickname. Oh, that was glorious when the pair heard it when they talked over the phone. Along with Striker arguing with the younger child. Ivy wishes she was there that day well those three days in general. It was the Harvest Moon festival and Maria wanted to show Moxxie. Along with meet Susie, Striker. They had fun. Plus, got a nice photo of the pair with the blood red moon that was shown.

"Mamá just jealous of Rattles."

"Ha!"

Knock! Knock!

"Alright she here."  Ivy goes out the door.

"Madre?"

"I'm alright Madre being worry wart." Her tail pats their head. "Now you be good for the babysitter."

Small grumble.

"Mox."

"...Meh."

Maria snorts and goes too finished up.

"Mox here your babysitter."

"Hey little runt!"

"Original."

Selena giggles and claps her hands together.

"Thanks again for this Selena."

"It's no issue Ivy. It's just a good thing you got me at a free, boring time. Now my fee- "

"You'll get it after we come back."

Selena pouts. Then she follows Ivy.

"Mox already ate. But if they want a treat, they can have one. But need to ask." Look at her son. "Right."

Moxxie shrugged.

"Double check the fridge. Gotten sneaky to get the chocolate."

"I got it. This isn't my first time to babysit."

"Yet, you still don't know how they swipe your bag away."

"That wasn't babysitting. I just came to visit my dear friend who didn't tell me, or even came over to announce she had a child." Selena places her hand over head. "Then my stuff was stolen."

"Misplaced. You got it back."

"Only because I notice when I got home! Bun wouldn't tell me." Side glare at her hair bun. Only to fake sleeping. "Wouldn't sell out your child."

"I think they just like my kid." The plant sinner snickered at the huffed look. "Don't worry nothing going to misplaced or replaced. Right Mox."

'I-done-nothing-wrong- 'expression on their face.

"Their poker face too good."

"Tell me about it. Maria you ready."

"Yep!" Call out from their bedroom.

"Here is a small list of what else to do. "

"I got it Ivy and wrote down what we talk about over the phone. You two go have fun and enjoy your late anniversary." Walk over to Moxxie and crouch down. Smile big at them. "We're going to have lots of fun."

Just stare at her and back at Ivy. "Not watching her."

Ivy laughs at Selena gapped expression. "Well, Selena got yourself a good sitter."

"I don't know to be offended or proud."

"What Mox say?" Maria came out as she grabbed their purse.

"Your runt in charge."

Maria snorted and kneel down to Moxxie. "Alright now you be good for Selena. Mamá and I will be back tonight."

Moxxie stared at her and nodded a little.

Smile and pat their head. Ivy goes to pat Moxxie head as well.

"Take care and have fun you two. Oh, and Selena."

"Yes. "

"If anything happens to our child your body fertilizer."

"Noted." I did not want to experience that pain coming back alive. Watch the pair of them leave. Then look back at Moxxie. "So, has your mothers already started to get in fist fights with other parents?"

The scarf imp nods their head yes.

"Oh, I wish I saw it. Did they win?"

Nod yes.

"Wonderful! Now what you like to do first?"

Two hours later.

Maria and Ivy had a wonderful time on their night out. One or two little small incidents but taken care of very easily. Then finally started to head back home. What a sight Maria, Ivy was staring at. Selena arguing with Moxxie. The pair at the kitchen table with a board game out. Slice of cake by Moxxie side.

"That theme park is mine!"

"No, money."

"You keep charging me!"

"Complain at bank."

"You are the bank!"

"I'm Moxxie."

"I see someone been having fun." Ivy walks over to put their purse down. Sees Maria pick up the lid of the box and show her.

Monopoly.

Well, Greed version when they marketed the game.

Souopoly.

"I guess Mox been watching us play."

"Or Selena was going easy and now regrets it." Why did they buy this game again?

"I'm right here loosing." Selena face is in her hands. "I've been doing different business for years! I've bargain. I make sure deals are secured. Sure, I may have ruined a few rival business owners but it's the principle of the matter. I'm losing profits and land in a board game!"

"Bank owns plot."

"No! My museum!"

It was a good night indeed.

Hopefully each night continues to be good.

Done!

I hope you enjoyed this dabble! I wanted this out of my head for a while. Maybe a part 2 but who to say.

MistraltheSkelegirl help me with this as well Thanks again!

There is a post in Random Art if you're curious to see how the three looks at this time.

Oh, if you're curious you can ask some questions to Maria, Ivy and Moxxie. Maybe they'll answer. Maybe they won't know who to say. I might see it in another post. All and all just for fun.

Any questions?

Until next time.

Bye, bye.
