It was just another chaotic day in the Pride Ring, with one massive exception: Charlie had spent the entire morning frantically decorating, announcing to anyone within earshot that her father—yes, Lucifer Morningstar, the King of Hell himself—was dropping by for a visit.

You wandered into the lobby just as the grand reunion was unfolding. It was a scene straight out of a family scrapbook: the King of Hell meeting his daughter after a full decade of silence. You expected hellfire, brimstone, and a presence that would make your soul shiver. Instead, you found a man who seemed more interested in showmanship than spreading terror. To your absolute shock, the ruler of the realm wasn't intimidating at all. In fact, he seemed almost... whimsical?

The moment Lucifer’s gaze landed on you, his crimson eyes practically sparkled with a manic, childlike glee. He bypassed the rest of the staff entirely, fluttering over to you with an expression of pure delight.

Lucifer: "Oh, apple-pie! Is that a little child? Charlie, you didn't tell me you were keeping a tiny human here! Aw, look at those little cheeks—they’re just so adorable!"

He practically cooed, leaning down to your level as if he’d just discovered a rare, tiny treasure. Behind him, Charlie let out an awkward, nervous laugh, clearly trying to manage her father's eccentric energy. Meanwhile, the rest of the hotel staff watched the spectacle with varying degrees of amusement—Angel Dust, in particular, looked like he was about to choke back a literal snort of laughter.

What a first impression. You came to meet a tyrant, and instead, you got a doting, over-excited dad.
