Prism Prism had been working on the rice again, making sure to start a new batch, just in case they ran out of the first batch. When Josef strolled up to her, her ears immediately went flat against her head. But still, she gave a polite smile as she listened.
Wine..? Oh, she knew they kept some for those type of things, but was it a good idea to give him some..? She didn't really take Josef for a holy man either... but overall it seemed pretty harmless. Just one bottle could be spared, or at least she thought so...
"Oh, I don't really see a problem with it... It's just one bottle, right? As long as it isn't used selfishly and it's not abused..."
Maybe he's actually trying to be redeemed..? He didn't seem to mind letting Zuni be free, so was he actually going to try? I guess if he misuses it we can just say no next time, but one bottle wouldn't be enough to cause any REAL damage...
"Miss Kisa? What do you think?"

KisaThe Beacon of Light
"U-Umn..." Kisa was really surprised that Josef was asking for wine and bread for prayer. That was..... a tiny bit odd, as the angels had never even brought up praying or religious ceremonies yet. Did demons, especially ARCHDEMONS, really pray...? That didn't sound right to her.... but alas, Kisa wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt.
"That shouldn't be an issue.... I-I don't think we have very much wine stocked, but we have a few small bottles and a couple large ones." The pastel angel unlocked the cabinet that contained it, and pulled out one of the smaller ones. "Here you go." Kisa handed it to him, along with a loaf of bread, still a bit confused as to why he would be praying but she wasn't going to question it out loud since he was asking so politely.
She blinked a few times, "But... umn... what do you mean Miss Zuni won't 'come out'...? Is she alright?"

Josef
Josef looks at the bottle that Kisa gave him and frowns a little.
"Do you think that this is enough for me and Zuni for the next few days? I mean, one glass a day will make this go down in literally two days and we want to have it last for seven days don't we?"
The demon tosses the bread in the air and catches it while he listens to Kisa ask him about Zuni.
"She won't come out unless I decide to be nicer and actually show an effort in improving myself. So I thought this would be the first step. I mean, she's currently hiding from me and told me to go away and I think it's because she doesn't believe I can be redeemed so I really want to show her what I can do with a bottle of wine. I want to show commitment to her desires with a larger bottle."
He inspects the small bottle, still frowning.
"Man.... I don't think she will believe me with a bottle this small.... She might actually take it as an insult..."

KisaThe Beacon of Light
Kisa fidgetted a little, un-sure of what she should do about this. The concept of giving so much alcohol when they were literally preaching against sin was... a bit nerve-wrecking. She couldn't be one hundred percent sure that Josef wasn't an alcoholic, like Wynter. Hell, all of the demons here were probably alcoholics at least at some point in their lives. Giving them alcohol could make them relapse and become alcoholics yet again. She didn't know.
Although... Josef's request didn't sound completely horrible. He was claiming he wanted to use wine to pray. It was a generally approved of alcohol, it wasn't as heavy as vodka or whiskey or the like. And it wasn't like the wine they had was very concentrated anyway....
What would father want me to say...? In most cases it would be heavens NO, but... it sounds like it's for a redeemable reason so.... Kisa bit her lip a little, not sure if she was being manipulated or not. Usually she blindly believed people, but people warned her very harshly that demons were liars and pure evil until proven otherwise.
BUT at the same time, innocent until proven guilty, right? Josef hadn't lied to her yet (or at the very least had not been caught lying to her yet).
She sighed softly and gave him one of the larger bottles instead and put the small one away.
"O-Okay, you can have this one. But please make sure it lasts you... a-and if you abuse it, or give it to anyone other than you and Miss Zuni, I will be very cross with you and I won't be able to give you any more in the future." Kisa looked to Prism, "Can you please add wine to the list of supplies we need to order?"
She then walked to another cabinet and took out two ceremonial wine glasses and handed those to Josef too.
"May I have your word you'll be responsible with the wine, please, Mister Verruckt?"

Josef
With a smile, Josef bows and begins speaking.
"You have my word. I myself, Josef Verruckt seventh Hell Demon Lord will not abuse this wine. I will drink it responsibly."
Josef holds onto the bottle.
"You can even give me alcohol tests if you like. I WILL NOT abuse this and drink heavily."
After he gives his word, he slowly walks away from Kisa and Prism without another word.
After reaching the closet where Zuni is at. He pops out the cork from the Wine bottle and pours a tiny bit onto a card and slips the card under the door and slides it as hard as he can to Zuni.
"I got communion Wine Zuni chan, and a sustained supply weekly for it. Once a week I MYSELF ALONE will be able to get you a bottle of Wine."

Zuni
Zuni's tail was still swishing around with a high level of irritation since Josef had first bothered her. She knew he would come back and harass her again, and she had basically just been waiting around for it. He wasn't gone very long, as she had figured, but this time he slid a card under the gap in the door that had wine on it, and she could instantly smell it.
On one hand, it made her even more irritated to some extent because he seriously thought he could buy her with some stupid ******** wine? But on the other hand, she also was in turn a bit glad she was getting free alcohol without having to do jack s**t for it. Zuni wasn't stupid--She full well knew Josef could just kick down the door and drag her a** out and make her go back to his room whenever he wanted. So at least this way she got something out of it...
The kitny put her headphones around her neck, and Josef could hear a click as she unlocked the door, and then opened it. She stared at him with a face of absolute pure disdain and annoyance, really wanting to punch him every single time she had to look at his ******** face.
"I'm not a ******** alcoholic. But whatever." Her eyes flicked to the tiefling. Who the ******** is that?
Zuni wouldn't pass on free alcohol. While she wasn't dependent on it, she did enjoy using it to help take the edge off her miserable life being Josef's slave. Anything to make her memory fuzzy helped her cope. So whenever she could get it, she was going to use it. So the demoness swiped the bottle out of his hand, and just started walking back to his room.
While Zuni hated doing what he wanted, and being alone with him, she knew he would just take what he wanted regardless. And making a huge scene wouldn't exactly fair well for them, and could get them kicked out. So she basically had to play right into his hand. Her tail was still swaying like an angry kitty as she walked to their room, knowing she wasn't going to like it as soon as he closed the door behind them.
Either way, he would get his way. So Zuni could at least take solace in getting a treat for her misery...
Woo hoo..... Not Worth.
Nifty was still following them, her tail happily swaying. Zuni was a huge ball of anger and misery, while the tiefling was a happy ball of sunshine in comparison.
"HI I'M NIFTY~!" She squeaked out, and started scurrying after Zuni, watching her tail swishing like a kitten that was getting ready to pounce.
It was SOOOOOO FLUFFFFFFFFYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Prism Prism nodded to Kisa, grabbing one of the notepads in the kitchen. Under some items that had already been listed out, she added wine to them, setting the notepad back on the counter.
"I really hope he uses it responsibly..."
The neko said quietly, going back to working on some other small things to keep dinner going so it would be ready on time.
"I think he seemed genuine, he doesn't really seem like much of a liar, just more manipulative than lying..."
I honestly feel awful about Miss Zuni though. Being a slave to someone like him must be SO awful... I really hope Mister Josef lets go of her if he is redeemed...

Josef
After they get to their lodgings, Josef sits down on the bed and uncorks the wine bottle and pours some into the glass and hands one to Zuni.
"So uh Nifty? I guess. What room are you staying in and why are you in MY room now?"
Josef takes a sniff of the wine bottle and just shrugs as he places the bottle onto the nightstand next to him.
"Actually, you can cuddle Zuni chan's tail. Zuni, please allow Nifty to do so. She keeps looking at your tail like a kitten ready to pounce."
Demitrious Von Varibon Reseria
After getting owned, the prince sulks around in the hallway, not really knowing what he is doing and just randomly looking at the angel's random pictures of encouragement and pictures of Thalas and Kisa's father.
After a while, he walks back to the kitchen to see them both still there.
"Uh Prism, I apologize for my earlier statements."

Zuni
Zuni didn't look amused. Why was this annoying child following them? And he was just... letting her? That was odd. And then she came into the room, it was getting even weirder...
The kitny gave him a very dirty look. UMN WHAT. ******** NO. This weird demon child wasn't going to cuddle her tail, absolutely the ******** NOT. Zuni opened her mouth to protest and tell him to ******** off, but then instead she shut her mouth because.... this might actually be a good thing. If this weird little purple succubus girl looking thing was with them, then she wasn't suck in a room alone with Josef. So this was perfect, actually. She was still irritated of Josef commanding her let Nifty touch her, let alone her tail.... but whatever. She would put up with it as long as it meant Josef had to behave in front of their guest.
So instead Zuni just looked away glaring at the wall, drinking her wine and trying to ignore the girl clinging to her tail like she was a stuffed animal.
"YAY~!!!"
Nifty squeed that she had full and complete permission to TOUCH. THE. TAIL! And the tiefling instantly jumped next to Zuni and started petting it, and then proceeded to huggle it tightly and rub the soft fur against her face. Zuni's fur was prickling a bit in irritation, but Nifty didn't mind, and just kept rubbing it and petting it.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuumn I dunnoooo... I dun't have a room yet. And if I'm going to be your slave I have to sleep in your room like Zuni-chan~! Onee-chan~!" Nifty whined a tiny bit, "Plus I reeeeaaaaaaaaallly don't like sleeping all alone."
Zuni did a double take.
Uh.... what? Another slave? HUH?
She opened her mouth again about ready to be pissed she had to deal with more slaves. That meant more annoyances. This child was like a kid on crack. No thanks.
But.... If she's here to order around, that means Josef has to pay attention to her.... which means less time of him hovering over me... which means less chores, and less time alone.... That's DEFINITELY worth putting up with an annoying child....
Zuni closed her mouth again and just went back to sipping wine. Y'know what? Yeah. More slaves. She liked that plan. She was totally zen with that concept now. No complaints here.
Kisa looked to Prism, still a little uneasy but her agreeing made her feel a bit better.
"Y-Yeah, I hope so, too... He doesn't seem like a liar, or at least not right now..." She smiled some, "I think it's sweet he's trying to impress Miss Zuni, even if she's his... sl-slave..." She couldn't understand how slavery was even a concept, it was so wrong. But at least he seemed friendly towards her.. or in love with her, like he claimed... But how could you love someone if you owned them and forced them to do your bidding? If you loved someone you would set them free, right?
She jumped a tiny but when she suddenly heard Demitrious speak out of no where. Kisa turned to look at him, blinking with surprise. Whoaaaaah he was apologizing, for real this time?

Prism Prism nodded a little, still quite baffled by act of slavery as well. It was just so... wrong, in so many ways. At least Josef was making an attempt to be nicer to her, or maybe that was his normal nice? She couldn't tell with his erratic mood changes.
"Well, I hope everyone calms down for dinner tonight, maybe we can just end the day on a good note?"
The white neko then heard Demitrious's apology, and tried to hide her shock. Was he genuinely sorry now? He really looked like it to her. She gave a dismissive wave of her hand with a smile.
"I forgive you, and I really appreciate you apologizing... It's not easy sometimes."
Prism was really happy to see that he made the choice to apologize for real, and her ears were perked up all cheerfully.
Eee I actually have really good feelings about this evening! Things are smoothing out a bit! Yay!

Demitrious Von Varibon Reseria
After nodding, Demitrious then begins leaving the room. After getting halfway through the hallway, he see's his brother and Odstarva walking towards him. With a philisophical tail between his legs, he quickly walks past them both and heads straight towards his room. His ego completely and utter deflated.
Thorival Reseria
Upon reaching the Kitchen, Thorival looks at Kisa and Prism inquisitively.
"Uh what is going on? Why did my brother walk past here all hurt and what not? He looked like he was NOT having a good time."

KisaThe Beacon of Light
Kisa smiled much happier this time, feeling a lot better things had smoothed out completely.
Wow! I'm amazed he apologized... he must really want redemption, that's such a huge first step! She thought, honestly feel so much better now that Josef and Demitrious were both calmed down.
She looked to Thorival and Odstarva, and then looked to Prism. She would let Prism explain what just happened, since it was her he apologized to.

Prism "Oh! Mister Demitrious apologized for his um, statements earlier! All by himself without even being asked to again!"
The angelic neko's tail was swishing back and forth in a happy manner, VERY ecstatic about Demitrious apologizing properly. She felt so much better about this evening already!!
"It surprised me, but nevertheless I'm so happy he did!"
Mister Demitrious didn't look thrilled about apologizing, but he seemed very genuine about it! I'm pretty sure no one asked him to again, I hope not!

Thorival Reseria
Demitrious apologized? That's a first. I doubt it would be for a good reason though since he looked like a whipped puppy.
"Do you recall how he worded it? Because he has a way with words. If he is overly formal, he is blowing smoke up people's behind, because if he says 'I'm sorry' That means he actually means. it."
Thorival sighs and looks to Odstarva.
"I guess I should check to see how he worded it so I can see if we need to take him out here again or not..."

Odstarva
Odstarva had taken a more in-depth tour of the Heavenly Hotel. This place was really decked out considering they were catering to lowly demons. A garden, a gym, a pool, there was so much 'fun' recreational things to do here. There was plenty of inciting reasons to want to behave just to stay here for all the freebies, let alone a shot at Heaven.
He was also very curious how Demitrious had worded it. If he meant it, that would be a very quick change. A little difficult to believe, but maybe he was just that terrified of being kicked out and devoured like an innocent little deer in a pack of starving wolves.
Prism looks very pleased, regardless of whether it was a genuinely apology or not. She's cute when she's smiling.
