#NoHurtHellvember #drabble #stolitz Day 9 Quiet

Stolas had always loved the night. Perhaps it was simply in his nature as an owl demon who was destined to read prophecies from the stars. Or maybe it was just the way he was. Either way the quiet of the night was his favourite time.

Even now, with no title or palace, he still loved night time. After all, that was when he got to curl up with Blitzø, and let himself be grateful for what he had left.

When all was quiet and the pride ring slept Stolas would lay awake holding the imp that set him on the path to freedom. Things didn't look quite how he had expected them too, but after learning a new normal and reuniting with his precious starfire he was finally letting himself be happy.

As he closed his eyes, finally giving into the call of sleep he smiled. The last sound he heard in the quiet of the night was his love purring in his sleep as they lay curled around one another.

Day 8: Trust. Corporate synergy is very important. #nohurthellvember @pipsqueakparker.bsky.social #drabble #helluvaboss

Trust Falls

Stolas stood on the reception desk at I.M.P. looking down at his coworkers. He had to crouch down a little bit to keep his head from being driven into the ceiling. “Are you sure about this, Blitzø?”

“Yep! We need this for office synergy, or some bullshit.”

The owl sighed, “Ok, Blitzø, but if I get hurt it's on you.”

“Don’t worry about it. You are light. We won’t drop you!”

“Hi! My name is Stolas, and I write porn.”

Blitzø smiled up at Stolas. “Now tell us something you want to work on with yourself.”

Stolas shifted his weight nervously. “I want to try to be more present for my loved ones

“Good, birdie. Now turn around and fall backward. Don’t worry. We will catch you! Right guys?”

Moxxie and Millie nodded enthusiastically while Loona grunted, keeping attention on her phone. The hellhound raised one hand into the air making a token begrudging effort.

Stolas did as he was told and screwed all four eyes shut as he shifted his weight backwards. The sensation of falling terrified him, and his heart skipped a beat. The sudden landing in his coworker’s outstretched arms drove the air from his lungs, but he was safe. When his feet were safely on the ground he admitted, “That was exhilarating!”

“See. I told you that it was a good idea. Now you all trust us. Now, Moxxie, your turn. I know you don’t trust me at all.”

“I trust you to be an asshole, sir…and to immediately drop me as soon as you catch me.”

Blitzø smiled at his smaller employee. “See? It is working already!”

Moxxie sighed as he hopped onto the desk to complete his trust fall. (Don’t worry, no one actually got hurt.)

Day 6: Novella. Nothing like watching some brain rotting TV on Saturday morning. #drabble #helluvaboss #stolitz @pipsqueakparker.bsky.social #NoHurtHellvember

Complicated Plot

“So, who is that?” asked Blitzø as he pointed at a character in the old television screen.

“That is Ricardo. He is Alejandro’s twin brother,” responded Stolas.

“Let me guess. He is the evil twin," said Blitzø with an eye roll. Evil twins were so lame.

Stolas smiled brightly, “Actually Alejandro is the evil twin. Gabriella has amnesia, so she doesn’t remember that.”

Blitzø groaned, “So she is throwing herself at the wrong brother?”

“Not necessarily. She might just likes a bad boy.” Stolas fluttered his eyelashes at Bl itzø.

The imp threw his hands in the air. “There is just way too much to keep up with in this show.”

“I have seen your diagrams of your horse OCs; I know you can keep up with this,” scolded Stolas.

“Look just because Prism Sprint and Nectarine Jill have some weird competitive will they or won’t they lesbian thing going on, but that is not the point!”

“What is the point then?”

“None of my characters have ever gotten anything lame as amnesia.”

“I thought we were discussing complicated relationship entanglements?” asked Stolas. How did they get to this part of the conversation? Evil twins, amnesia, complicated plot, Blitzø’s OCs, and then back to amnesia again. The owl gave a sigh. “Well at least we don’t have to worry about weird stuff like that in our personal lives.”

Blitzø blinked his eyes asynchronously. He actually thought that sometimes their crazy relationship together was just on par with Hell-a-Novella, but he wasn’t going to tell Stolas that. He pulled the owl in close. “If you say so, Stols. Now tell me who you think the father of Gabriella’s baby is…”

Day 6: Baking. I decided to return to my first multi-chapter fic, Hibachi Love, for some cooking diaster prone Stolas. #NoHurtHelltember @pipsqueakparker.bsky.social #helluvaboss #drabble #Stolas

Piece of Cake

Blitzø wasn’t home yet, but Stolas was not too concerned. He had received a text earlier in the evening from his husband complaining about how busy Uncommon Grounds was that night. Stolas did offer to come in to help out even though he was a little bit out of practice, but Blitzø told him to enjoy his night alone.

Stolas tried to watch Hell-a-Novella, but he was struggling to get himself immersed. It was a rerun of the episode that premiered on the night he almost burned down the dormitory while popping popcorn in the microwave. With a frustrated sigh, Stolas turned off the TV and looked around the apartment for something else to do.

His eyes finally settled on the kitchen. Maybe some baking would be entertaining. He was less likely to set off the smoke detector when he baked. Not that he had set off the smoke detector recently…

The owl smiled as he walked into the kitchen and pulled out Blitzø’s favorite chocolate cake recipe. Maybe his husband would enjoy a treat after his long day of work. Stolas looked at the ingredient list and started gathering everything together. At first he was afraid that they wouldn’t have everything he needed already in the pantry. He wasn’t planning on making a cake when he and Blitzø had purchased groceries earlier in the week. His fears were unfounded; he found everything he needed, even a tablet of Wrathian hot chocolate. Despite his sigh of relief, Stolas checked to make sure that nothing was past its expiration date.

Within short order, the cake batter came together. Stolas pulled out a cake pan and greased it. When he tried to carefully pour the batter into the pan, he ended up dropping the bowl. Luckily, it landed in the pan. With a groan, Stolas picked up the bowl and scraped the remaining batter into the pan from both the inside and the outside of the bowl.

Stolas was about to put the cake in the oven when he realized that he had forgotten to pre-heat it. With another put upon sigh, he put the cake back on the counter and turned the oven on. After what felt like an eternity, the oven dinged to let him know it was ready. He got the cake in the oven and remembered at the last second to set the timer.

The frosting was easy to make. It came together so easily that Stolas was suspicious. He took a deep breath and looked around the kitchen…chocolate was splattered everywhere. That was more like it. He checked the timer. There was plenty of time to get the kitchen cleaned before it went off.

Half an hour later: the oven was off, the cake was on the counter cooling, and the kitchen was sparkling clean. Stolas tried to spread the frosting evenly, but it kept glopping all over the place. When he was done, there was more cleaning to do, but a perfectly serviceable chocolate cake sat on the counter. He collapsed onto the couch in exhaustion. Suddenly the Hell-a-Novella reruns didn’t seem too bad.

Stolas was just getting into his stories when he heard the door open. He swung his head around to see Blitzø entering. “Welcome home, darling.”

“Hey, birdie. You won’t believe the day I- Is that your special chocolate cake?”

“Of course.”

“And you made it just for me without any help at all? It must have been difficult.”

Stolas let out a nervous hooting laugh as he remembered the state of the kitchen just half an hour ago. “No, darling. It was a piece of cake.”
