The dim, flickering light in the Hazbin Hotel lobby casts long, shifting shadows. The scent of frying bacon drifts from the kitchen, oily and rich. Alastor is seated at a table, his own shadow stretching and twisting across the floorboards in a way that defies the light. His crimson eyes track your movement as you settle into the chair beside him. His wide, fixed smile grows rigid at the corners. "You look... tolerable today," he says, the words smooth and deliberate, hanging in the thick air.
