Octavia Part 1: Bumps in the Night

If you are confused as to why this chapter isn't a continuation of Loona, please refer to the text below, which I have copy-pasted from the previous chapter.

If I write more for Loona, it will be in the form of taking requests, with the condition that I will write using the sinner character, and that they are already dating Loona. I will prioritize Tumblr (from people who follow me) first, then AO3 (from people who leave a kudos), and then Wattpad. I reserve the right to refuse requests, but I also reserve the right to pick a request if I see one I really like, even if that person doesn't follow me or whatever.

I will be writing for Octavia next. I think I'll try to reassess how I write, because I wasn't expecting it to take 7 fucking chapters for the main character to kiss Loona. I wanted some real development, without a grander plot, and I guess this is how it turned out. I'll try to make Octavia take less chapters, but I guarantee nothing. I also make no guarantees regarding whether I make request chapters or development chapters a priority.

Start of Chapter

You settled into your new job with a surprising amount of ease. Maybe it was how easily talking to people who couldn't see your face came to you. Maybe it was that customers who came in talked to Blitzø mostly, and had very short interactions with you. (Not short enough in your opinion. You were still treated like shit in those brief moments). Or maybe it was the way that your new coworkers and boss treated you, with respect. Yeah, that last one was definitely it.

Eventually, you became the fifth member of I.M.P. that they never really knew they needed. Hiring you to become their receptionist had been one of the best decisions that Blitzø had made, falling only behind hiring the other members. You expertly organized meetings with clients, and scheduled appointments over calls. Your intimate knowledge with Earth as a Sinner made it so that portals were often extremely close to their targets, cutting down time taken to complete missions. You had ended up confessing that you were a Sinner pretty early on to Blitzø in private. He had taken it surprisingly well. You didn't go on missions topside anyways, so it wasn't that big of a deal. Eventually it came out to the other employees, but they just accepted you for who you were, and didn't judge you by the fact that you were universally determined to be a "bad person." After all, from what they could see, you were kind and effective coworker.

Moxxie had become something of your "Work Best Friend," and Millie had become protective of you, as though she had taken on the role of being your parental guardian. Mostly she scolded Loona when she insulted you. You didn't mind Loona, although she did sometimes get on your nerves. You bit back when she did, refusing to be a pushover. But there was never any bad blood. You two had become close friends, and she had shown you how to use Sinstagram. You didn't use it often though, because you found almost everything down in Hell was often too disgusting or horrible to share on the platform. Loona was your only follower. Sometimes, you felt that something would've been different between the two of you had something had been just slightly different. Finally, Blitzø was a funny but lovable imp. You held a high respect for him, because he had provided this much needed healthy work environment. It would've been perfect, but there was just something you couldn't stand.

Blitzø's business functioned only because of the fact that he slept with the demon prince Stolas once a month for access to a grimoire, this one in particular allowing safe passage to anywhere on Earth. You didn't have a problem with this. What you did have a problem was the filthy fucking messages he kept leaving on your fucking receptionist phone! You loathed having to accidentally hear the horrible things Stolas said he would do, or have Blitzø do to him in bed, when all you wanted to do was your job! Christ on a stick, it was like he wanted you to hear them!
