Me and a buddy (you know who you are ;3) thought of this scenario last night when YouTube went down world-wide and I just had to make a comic on it.

Meeting the BF’s Dad Part 2

Slug: "Um...Sir, it's a little too early to start thinking about having children. We've only been dating for a few months." Pentious: "Pff you know how many kids people would have back in my day after only getting married for a short time? They'd have five by the time of their first anniversary!"

A Night To Remember

           There are many words that would describe Black Hat; rude, malicious, cruel. Nervous however was one not even he knew the definition of. The villain was pacing in his room, arms folded behind his back. Instead of wearing his usual attire, he had on a black tuxedo. After walking in the same line for the tenth time, Black Hat paused in front of his mirror. He fixed his bow tie, growling. “Come on Black Hat! You’ve been on plenty of dates before! This isn’t any different! You’ll go to the restaurant, woo her with her devilish charm, and by the end of the night she won’t be able keep her hands off you.” The boss gave himself a wide grin. That didn’t calm the squirming sensation in his stomach though.

           There was a knock at the door, causing him to jump in surprise. Black Hat pulled himself together, walked over to the door, and yanked it opened. “WHAT IS IT,” he barked. Standing outside of the door was Dr. Flug, looking skittish as usual. “H-Hello, sir! Um—I wanted to tell y-you that um…” Black Hat glared even harder at the scientist as she stuttered. “GET ON WITH IT FLUG! I’M BUSY!” She flinched, sweating nervously. “D-Dr. Slug is here!” Black Hat’s eyes twitched while something from his chest fell to his gut. The feeling soon turned into rage as he grabbed Dr. Flug’s shirt collar, forcing her to be inches away from his face. “WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME SOONER, YOU BLITHERING IDIOT?!”

           Dr. Flug instinctively threw her arms up to her face, eyes squeezed shut. “I-I’M SORRY! 5.0.5. and I had to wrangle Dementia into her room so she didn’t tear Dr. Slug apart!” The boss rolled his eyes. “She would have been able to defend herself, unlike you!” He threw the scientist to the floor. “I’ll deal with you later!” He then stormed down the hall, trying hard to calm down.

           The villain eventually made it to the living room. He stopped dead in his tracks when his eyes fell on the person standing by the fire place. She was wearing a black, skin tight short dress with a black leather jacket. The jacket itself had steel spikes sticking out of the shoulder pads. A grey leather choker was around her neck and black high heels adorned her feet. The only thing out of place was the paper bag covering her head and the grey goggles over her eyes. Black Hat’s cheeks were burning with heat. It took him a full minute to compose himself before entering the room. The demon gave the woman a slick smile as he walked the rest of the distance toward her. “Dr. Slug! It is so good to see you.” He took the scientist’s hand, gently kissing it. Slug only gave him a blank stare as she replied. “I’ve been waiting a full ten minutes, by myself might I add.”

           Black Hat imagined strangling Flug in his head as he smiled wider at her. “I am dreadfully sorry Doctor. My idiot staff didn’t tell me you had arrived.” Slug huffed, taking her hand out of Black Hat’s. “You said to come to your headquarters at five, which I did.” The villain tried to keep a calm smile as he replied, “I understand. In any case, shall we head to the restaurant?” She only nodded. Black Hat offered Slug an arm. The scientist raised an eye brow at the gesture. She took it however and he started to lead her out of the room. Soon they were outside, walking to a black car that looked striking similar to a hearse. Black Hat broke away from Slug to open the passenger door. She entered the vehicle, her companion closing the door after her. He then went around the car to the driver’s door. Once he positioned himself, Black Hat took the key from his coat pocket and started the ignition.

           The car made a sputtering noise, smoke pluming from the hood. The couple watched the spectacle in shock. The demon turned off the ignition and sprinted to the front of the car. He lifted the hood, black smoke blasting in his face. Black Hat coughed, waving it away. He was able to see what the problem was once the smoke cleared. There was gum and multiple tools jammed into the engine. He let out a low growl; hands gripping the hood cover tightly. “DEMENTICA! I’M GOING TO GUT HER ALIVE WITH MY OWN HANDS!”

           “Is everything alright up there Black Hat?” He lowered the hood. Dr. Slug was half way out of the car, slight concern on her face. He put on a fake smile as he slammed the hood shut. “Everything is fine Doctor! I just had a thought! Why not we walk to the restaurant? It’s such a pleasant evening outside. It would be such a waste to drive there!” She raised an eye brow. “When did you start liking walks outside?” The demon simply took her by the arm and strolled off with her. “Well look at the time! We best be off!” While the scientist struggled to regain her footing, Black Hat was trying it best to conceal his building rage.

           It was dark out by the time the two made it to their destination. It was a fancy five star restaurant that was popular among the high to do’s. They were slightly out of breath as Black Hat opened the door for her. “A-After you, Dr. S-Slug.” She fixed her dress before entering the building. He soon followed her in. They went to the snooty looking foreman standing behind a pulpit. Black Hat straightened his hat, grinning confidently. “Good evening! A reservation for two under the name Black Hat, the Greatest Villain that ever Lived.” Dr. Slug rolled her eyes as the foreman looked over the list.

           “Ah, yes. Here you are. Unfortunately you are half an hour late sir. I’m afraid we had to give your reservation to someone else.”

           Black Hat’s eye and mouth twitched while his shoulders were shaking with wrath. “WHAT DO YOU MEAN,” he asked in a demonic tone. The foreman started to sweat as he answered him. “W-Well we have a strict l-late policy. If you are half an hour late, we will give up your reservation.” His eyes started to glow red. “DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY LIVES I HAD TO THREATEN IN ORDER TO GET THIS RESERVATION,” he spat. “IF YOU DON’T GIVE IT BACK TO US I’LL-“ He felt someone grab his shoulder, stopping his outrage. He turned to see a calm Dr. Slug. “That’s enough Black Hat,” she said sternly. She then brought her attention to the foreman. “I am sorry for that. He’s been very stressed as of late. We’ll take our business elsewhere. Come, Black Hat.” She then walked toward the entrance. The demon watched her go for a moment before following her. He turned back to foreman, sliding his finger across his throat. He got some satisfaction out of his scared expression.

           They were now outside. Black Hat was fuming at the seams. “This is just perfect! How could this night get any worse!” Suddenly, there was a loud bang of thunder then a few steady drops of rain began to fall. The boss bit back a scream. He then felt alarm as he realized that the doctor was getting wet. He whipped off his tail coat and put it over her. “Hold on! Let me find a place for us to take shelter.” Black Hat frantically searched for a relief from the now pouring rain. “How about over there?” He blinked and looked to where Slug was pointing. It was a shabby gyro shop which had a cloth overhang. They then dashed over to the building. Black Hat was soaked to the bone. He took off his hat and wringed it, water dripping to the cement sidewalk. The top hat was sadly still damp. He sighed, putting it back on his head. It was crumpled, looking like how the demon felt.

           Slug handed the coat back to him. “Here.” It was absolutely dry. Black Hat was shocked. “How the-“ She revealed a small ray gun. “The Sun Warmer. Never leave home without it.” She handed him the gun for the demon to use. He studied it for a few minutes before starting it up. After he was done he handed it back to her in silence. The silence grew between the two. Black Hat growled in frustration, rubbing his temples. The scientist watched him in concern. “Are—you alright?” He glared at her, green fangs bared. “No! I’m not alright! This whole night has been one disaster after another!” Slug just watched as him continue his rant. “I wanted this night to be perfect! But NOOOOOOOOO my good for nothing employees conspired against me and even the weather is trying to ruin this for us!” He huffed for a moment then his expression turned slightly more melancholy. “This—was our first date together and I wanted to get to know you more over good food…I wanted it to be special.” He sighed in anger. “But now it’s ruined.”

           “…I wouldn’t say it was completely ruined.” Black Hat’s eyes widened as he turned to his companion. She rubbed the back of her neck as she continued. “Sure we didn’t get to eat at a high class restaurant. I honestly don’t care about that.” He frowned at the woman. “What?! You mean I made that reservation for nothing?!” Slug sighed in annoyance. “That’s not what I meant you idiot! I—look I never was the best talking about my feelings but what I’m trying to get at is I don’t care where we go, just as long as I’m with you.” Black Hat didn’t know what to say. He could only stare at her, cheeks warm.

           The demon hesitantly took Dr. Slug’s hand. She flinched at first but then relaxed. They looked into each other’s eyes as the rain cascaded around them.  They inched closer to one another until their foreheads were touching. Black Hat grinned softly. “You really are something else Doctor.” She chuckled softly, eyes full of mischief. “I get that a lot.” He grinned wider as he slightly lifted the bottom of her paper bag up with his free hand. He gingerly kissed her scared lips. The woman kissed back, resting her other hand on his cheek. They slowly broke it after a few moments. Black Hat and Slug were both quietly smiling.

           He then turned his head to the gyro shop. “…I think it might be open.” He looked back at his companion with a devious grin. “Shall we?” Her face was full of relief. “Oh my gosh yes! I could eat a horse!” Black Hat laughed, anger disappearing like morning dew. “Let’s us be off then!” He proceeded to lead Slug into the shop.

                                                        ***

           Black Hat and Dr. Slug were making their way back to Black Hat Headquarters, laughing loudly. Black Hat wiped away a tear from his eye as he said, “Th-That was the funniest thing I have ever heard in my life! Sending his family a box full of his fingers was priceless!” The woman chuckled, covering her mouth with her hand. “Y-Yeah! You should have seen the look on their faces!” They burst into another roll of laughter as they walked up the hill. They eventually made it to the door.

           Black Hat glanced at the woman. “…I guess this is it,” commented Slug. He nodded, feeling slightly sad. “Yes…” They faced each other. There was an awkward quiet between the two. Out of the blue, Slug lifted her bag, gave him a quick kiss, and pulled her bag down. “I—I had a great time.” Black Hat’s eyes fluttered rapidly, blushing crimson. The doctor bolted before he could say anything. He watched her go, something thumping within his chest. He wickedly smiled. He made his way into the house.

           “I did too,” he whispered.
