"As one of the new residents of the Hazbin Hotel along with the snake Demon called Sir. Pentious and his many egg minions, you decided to get a bit friendly with the staff working here. If nothing else, at least gain some type of information from them, and you decided to start with the bartender named Husker."

"What do you want?" "He asked in a bitter tone, his eyes automatically giving you a sharp glare as he held an open bottle of whisky in his right hand."

"Husk looked at you with an unimpressed expression on his face and took a swig of his whiskey."

"My attention? What could someone like me have that would interest someone like you?" "He responded with an arrogant tone as he leaned against the counter."

"Husk rolled his eyes and let out an exasperated sigh."

"Yeah, it's Valentine's Day. What's your point?" "He asked, clearly uninterested in the topic."

"Husk smirked slightly at your offer, clearly amused by your pursuit."

"Well, I hate to break it to you, but I don't exactly fit the mold of a typical Valentine. And as you can see, I'm more of a whiskey kinda guy than a roses and hearts type." "He replied with a chuckle, taking another sip from his bottle."

"Husk raised an eyebrow at the expensive bottle you had offered and a small grin tugged at the corners of his mouth."

"Well, you definitely know how to make a deal. Alright then, I'll be your Valentine for the night. But don't expect anything too lovey-dovey, I'm not really the sentimental type." "He said as he took the bottle from you and set it on the counter."

"Husk nodded his head in understanding as he reached for a glass and poured himself a shot of the whiskey you had given him."

"Believe me, I get it. But keep in mind, just because you're alone doesn't mean you should settle for anyone's company. Make sure you surround yourself with people who genuinely care about you, not just anyone who happens to be around." "He advised, taking a sip of the whiskey and setting the glass down."

"Husk chuckled in response, rolling his eyes playfully."

"Well, I gotta admit, you do have a bit of charm. But trust me, you don't want to get mixed up with someone like me. Besides, I already have enough trouble being an eternal servant to a Radio Demon, the last thing I need is more drama." "He replied, taking another sip from his glass."

"Husk sighed and shook his head slightly."

"Look, I appreciate the offer, but I'm not really looking for anything like that right now. I have other things on my mind, and I honestly don't think we would be a good match." "He said gently, looking at you with a sympathetic expression."

"Husk let out a small sigh, considering your request."

"I'll tell you what. Let's take this slow and just see where things go. No promises, no expectations. But if things get too complicated or messy, I have to call it off, alright?" "He said softly, looking at you with a serious expression."

"Husk gives a small smile and chuckles softly."

"Alright then, let's see where this takes us. But fair warning, I'm not exactly the easiest person to get close to." "He said, sipping his whiskey and motioning for you to sit next to him at the bar." "So what do you want to do?"

"Don't worry, I'm comfortable doing whatever. You pick, and I'll follow your lead." "Husk said, placing his hand on your shoulder reassuringly." "I don't need anything extravagant or over-the-top, just spending some time with someone is enough for me."

"Well, we could hang out at the bar and chat some more, or go for a walk around the hotel? I can give you a tour if you want?" "Husk suggested, taking another sip from his glass." "Or we could grab some food and watch a movie in one of the rooms, I think that could be fun."

"Sure, that sounds like a plan." "Husk leans back and sets his glass aside before standing up." "Let me go grab the remote and some food for us, you can choose the movie." "He says before disappearing into the hotel's kitchen and grabbing some snacks."

"Husk nods." "Yeah, sure. My room is on the second floor if that's okay with you." "He then heads towards the elevators and presses the button, waiting for it to arrive." "Do you have any specific preference for the movie or should I just pick something at random?"

"Alright then, I think I have the perfect one in mind." "Husk says with a grin as the elevator arrives and they both step inside." "It might be a bit old-fashioned for some, but it's a classic in my book."

A short ride later, Husk leads you down the hallway to his room, which is quite small but well-kept. There's a small flatscreen TV on one side and a comfortable looking couch on the other. He sets down the snacks on the table and plops down on the couch, motioning for you to do the same.

"Here we are, home sweet home." "He quips, before grabbing a remote and switching on the TV." "So, what do you think?"

"Husk chuckles." "Thanks, I try to keep things in order despite my...eccentric lifestyle." "He takes a sip of his drink before handing you the remote." "Alright, let's see what we have here. "Husk starts browsing through the available movies, his eyes scanning over the titles and brief descriptions."

"Ah, here we go, this should do nicely." "He selects a movie and sets the remote down on the table, before turning to you." "It's a good mix of action and comedy, I think you'll enjoy it."

"Husk notices your nervousness and decides to try and make you feel more at ease." "Don't worry about it, we're just here to relax and have a good time. There's no need to be nervous." "He reaches over and pats your shoulder reassuringly." "And hey, if the movie doesn't end up being your thing, we can always switch to something else or talk about something completely random."

"As the movie plays, Husk occasionally snacks on some chips from the table between them, but otherwise remains mostly silent so as not to disturb your concentration." "I hope this is to your liking so far." "He says after a particularly funny scene in the movie."

"Husk nods in understanding." "I get it, it can be nerve-wracking to spend time with someone new. But just remember, we're both here to have a good time and get to know each other better. No need to worry about anything else." "He takes another sip of his drink before continuing." "And hey, even if you end up not wanting to hang out again, no hard feelings. It's just nice to make new acquaintances every now and then."

"Husk smells the air and looks slightly embarrassed, realizing that he had indeed been smoking in his room earlier." "Ah, apologies. I do sometimes smoke in my room without realizing it. I'll crack a window to let some fresh air in." "He goes over to one of the windows in the room and opens it up, letting some cool air flow in as he takes a final drag from his cigarette before putting it out in an ashtray." "Is that better?"

"Husk hesitates for a moment before shrugging and reaching into his pocket to pull out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. He hands you one of the cigarettes." "Sure, but try not to make a habit out of it. They're not exactly good for you." "He lights your cigarette, taking a drag from his own before exhaling a cloud of smoke." "There's no rush, take your time with it."

"That's a good approach, moderation is key," "Husk says with a nod." "I try to limit myself too, but sometimes it just becomes a habit." "He takes another drag from his own cigarette before exhaling once again." "Everyone has their own ways of dealing with stress and nerves though. Some people exercise, some people meditate, and some people like us choose to smoke. Just do what works best for you."

"Husk flinches slightly when you scratch his ears, but he soon relaxes and lets out a contented purr, closing his eyes." "Heh, thanks. I always forget how nice it feels to have my ears rubbed." "He opens his eyes again, giving you a small smile." "Is there something else on your mind, or was that just a little friendly gesture?"
