Sprirts get's distracted (yet again) by some rather nice alcohol while the Deities bicker like unruly children

Notes at end

Spirts hummed and hawed as tested this newest alcoholic beverage from this rather charming place he had found by complete accident!

While he had initially been wary of the golden portal that appeared out of nowhere, the smell of high value alcohol had quickly swayed his decision to enter it and was now sampling quite a few such oddities that he had no clue what they were but were delicious either way.

The labels had odd unreadable text but he was more than happy to sample by taste alone and so far he was liking it, this room full of a variety of alcohol and much better than the vodka factory from earlier.

He was oblivious how he practically caused the owner to go bankrupt when he drank everything in sight, still annoyed he ran out before he could truly enjoy anything.

So far he was liking it and it actually felt like it was doing something unlike that weak stuff in the last Bartale he visited. Monsters could be rather wimpy, thinking it was a tad pathetic that most tended to collapse after one barrel of beer but this stuff was amazing and he felt he would be here for awhile just to truly taste the lot.

He ripped open another cork and downed the drink that was pleasantly sweet, throwing the empty bottle to the ever growing pile behind him and somehow not noticing the figures watching from the open doors with a mix of despair and deep rage at the amount of priceless alcohol being consumed.

"What the hell is that and how did it get in?"

"Why is it drinking all the good stuff?! How isn't it dead yet?! I'm pretty sure it was still mortal last time I checked"

"Oh no, it's drinking the Asgard mead as well. The nice stuff as well that I had to trade so many favours for. That stuff takes a millennia to brew and he drank it in seconds! Is that even a mortal?! He's drinking it like its water"

"..oh god, it's one of Chaos chosen. Who has the spray bottle and the broom? It's time for the emergency protocols. We need to kick them out before they try to live here full time. We do not want another Dionysus situation again. Damn monster will be the cause of all the barriers having to be reworked again. Also, where is Order?! Shouldn't he be keeping an eye on his brother's actions?"

"Order hasn't been seen in months! We need to assign someone to keep a watch of Chaos before they try and do something else ridiculous"

"You couldn't pay me enough to do that!"

The Deities bickered like children while also trying to shoo Spirits out of their house like it was a feral raccoon that crawled in through the vents, in the end having to resort to using a trail of alcohol that coincidently led to a portal that Insanity kicked the Error through, in the end even that Deity not wanting to deal with a monster that Chaos had blessed.

Insanity still had teeth marks from the last of Chaos chosen he interacted with, having discovered he actually had limits to what he would deal with and that incident was the reason so many new rules were added about getting too involved with your chosen.

No one knew how the Error had gotten into the Deity realm but all knew an overhaul of the barrier would be needed again, none paying attention to Fate who was giggling as she toyed around with a few multiverses during the distraction.

"So you've decided to play with mortals directly, have you? Perhaps you should experience the woes of them as well. I am a rather kind being so i will give this gift to you"

Fate cooed mockingly with a rather sharp smirk as she looked through the portal showing Chaos, giving a nudge to a certain monster to interrupt their fun and lead down a fun path that will give them exactly what they wanted.

This better teach them to avoid touching her stuff again and she still not over them taking over a few multiverses she had been forming for years!

She giggled as she saw her magic get to work and felt a bit of sadistic pleasure keeping the twins apart for longer as Chaos reactions were so much fun.

———-

Marconi briefly passed in his cooking, frowning as he looked around and felt something was off like a sibling had done something they weren't supposed to but quickly shook it off when he heard Ashes singing in the living room, glad the babybones had relaxed enough to act more like a child.

He wondered if he should go back to the doctor for his checkup early but now with a child in the house he didn't want to interrupt the routine they had with something rather minor in his opinion.

He had always had odd senses of Deja Vu for practically his whole life and they had gotten even worse lately but the medicine seemed to help to dampen them, not wanting to have more of his out of body experiences especially with the new hopefully permanent house guests.

The house felt so much warmer now, feeling more relaxed then he had ever felt before with that odd emptiness in his soul feeling more filled then before.

It still felt like he was missing something, like a missing puzzle piece but he thought less about it the longer he was with Ashes, deciding to just ignore it like he had done in the past. He still couldn't recall it so it couldn't have been too important.

"Marconi! There is a funny looking monster on the tv. Come and look"

(Ashes!) Erebus hiss was heard, full of exasperation but with also a hint of humour that they would of course never admit to.

"What? It's true. You said honesty is good"

(You are going to give me grey fur at this rate)

Marconi snorted at the familiar argument, grabbing a bowl of snacks and going to join in the activity, the warmth of family filling his soul as the babybones began to defend himself from Erebus with little success.

His house guests were interesting and far from normal, observing how Ashes was sometimes confused by some social norms and often saying alarming things at times...but he couldn't say he would want to change them for anything.

Just like his sibling. Why did you LeaVe me ChAOs?~
