Death's Destructive Family: DestructiveDeath Sequel

Chapter 46: The Fool's Commitment

A few days later, NO POV

"You're joking, right? You did not say that to his face and expect a good outcome!"Killer says

Reaper frowns, taking a sip from his cup. Killer had invited him out for some drinks to chat and "have fun" but he is the only one having fun as he makes fun of the god's plans for his Glitchy.

"Oooh, so you did say it to his face! Wooow! Even I'm not dumb enough to say that! That's probably the worst excuse I've heard!"Killer says

"What? I was just trying to apologize for my assumptions or mind running off."He says

"And yet you managed to insult him and shoot yourself in the foot. It's ridiculous to imagine you ever getting married, you say! Then you say that he doesn't seem like the marrying type? Pfft, woow. You basically said that you couldn't see him ever getting proposed to OR successfully proposing to someone. And on top of that, you made it seem that you thought that he was unfit to marry by saying that he wasn't the type. That there's nothing about him that would be worth marrying or committing to. It even implies that you question his commitment, especially after letting your mind led you to eavesdrop on him. You made it clear that you didn't trust his commitment, dude. So now that you said what you did, how do you intend to propose to him with that ring? Do you know how insulting that would be? What kind of person with any self-respect would marry the guy who said he isn't worth marrying? Not Error, that's who. He'll think you're mocking him and hurt him more. You really know how to let your mouth talk for you, don't you? I thought lovers speak from the soul, not whatever shit you're using."He explains to Reaper before taking another sip of his drink

Reaper frowns, unable to think of any defense and simply takes another sip from his drink.

"And let me guess, he snapped at you and all you could do was apologize during cuddles? Didn't think to correct yourself?"

"What was I supposed to say other than sorry?"Reaper asks

"Anything that didn't make his last impression of you is that you think he isn't worth marrying. Do you honestly believe that romance god's story?"Killer asks

"Why wouldn't I?"

"Well, given that you didn't hear everything, you don't know everything that they were talking about. They could've easily been talking about anyone else and you wouldn't have known. That goddess could've just told you that to cover up who was really planning to marry someone special so that the big surprise didn't get ruined. I make up stories all the time to cover up for Dust with Boss, especially when Boss doesn't know the whole story so I can see that happening here. And I have a feeling I know who since I saw Error yesterday and I've never seen him look so upset before. And that says a lot since he is often upset when out destroying AUs but this time he didn't look angry, he looked soul-broken. So good job doing that, Reaper. You really know how to kill the mood."Killer says

"Excuse me, do you mind if I join?"A voice asks before it could sink into Reaper what Killer meant.

Reaper glances over, seeing Devota, the goddess of commitment.

"Sure! Anything I can order for ya? I'm buddies with the bartender here."Killer says as the bartender rolls their eyes.

"That's fine. One Tequilla Honey Bee please."She says to the bartender

The bartender nods and starts making the drink as the goddess lets out a frustrated sigh.

"Rough day?"Killer asks

"You have no idea."She says, sitting beside Reaper.

Reaper is now stuck between the two and can feel the tension as the two glance at him with some unspoken annoyance. He keeps his hood up, hiding his face as he occupies himself with his drink.
