Inside said pizza parlor, a man and a digimon sat at a table. A man in a red trenchcoat and an Impmon, to be precise. The man's feet were propped up on the table, tilting back in his chair with his hands behind his head. The owners of this establishment didn't look entirely happy with him using one of their tables as a foot rest.
Impmon gave Dante a dull look.
"Y'know, man. I thought we were here for-"
Dante thrust out one hand, holding up a finger. Impmon immediately silenced.
"Patience! I am a master of my craft."
His cocky expression didn't falter, but a slight glint appeared in his eye when the doors to the place opened.
"Dinner's just about ready to be served," said the silver haired Devil Hunter, his hand falling lazily to his side. He lightly patted a large instrument case that was propped up beside him.
Amaimon moved to a table, not far from the pair watching him and sat down. The Goblimon sat down across from him with a low growl before continuing his conquest of the taffy. Amaimon looked around, eyes taking in his strange place. He looked at the menu, seeing all of the different kinds of pizzas they offered. When the waitress approached and asked what he'd have, he paused for a moment before looking at her with a bored expression.
"One of every pizza."
"S-Sir?"
"One of each." He set the menu down and looked away. The waitress quickly took down the note and ran off to the back, off to report the massive order.
"That so?" Dante asked, and then swung his feet around, off the table. He repositioned himself until he was sitting backwards in the chair, arms draped over the back of it. "You don't exactly look like a kid that could pack away everything on the menu, y'know."
"I can. I have a big stomach, you just can't see it." Amaimon just said it as if it were obvious and an everyday thing. He looked the man over for a moment before raising his eyes up to his face again.
Dante cocked a head to one side. "Naw, I'm just here for shits and giggles," he said, and then left a slight pause. "Of course I do! Why the hell else do you think I'd be in here?"
He leaned back, looking at Impmon. The digimon held a perplexed expression, which became even moreso as Dante said, "Kids these days. Am I right?"
At Impmon's continuing furrowed brow, Dante just held up a finger, and turned back to look at Amaimon.
"Big stomach, just can't see it... heh. Is that so?"
Amaimon's blank stare changed, his eyes squinting and glaring at Dante. There were few things the Demon King of Earth didn't like. Being disrespected was one of them.
"It is. And I am not a child. I am sure I can eat much more pizza than you."
"Of course you're not," Dante said, with a grin and tone that made it hard to read whether he was sincere or joking. "And I'm real sure it'd be quite a sight, but ... y'know. Wouldn't want ya to throw up all over my nice, clean jacket in case you're wrong. Cleaning bills are expensive!"
"I won't throw up. I never throw up." He stated it as a fact, his voice again devoid of any emotion. The glare lessened some, taking the words as more sincere than not.
"I have nowhere else to be. Not until I take my candy back to Diva. And maybe some pizza too. She might like Pizza." A loud burp from the Goblimon made Amaimon look from the silver haired man and to his familiar.
"Did you like it?" It growled in response and he demon nodded. He pulled another string of taffy from the bad and tossed it to him. It caught it in its mouth and began chewing it up again.
"Yeah, they DO die easily. Sort of why I'm here," Dante said, his tone becoming notably sharper. "Y'see, it's my job to keep tabs on guys like you. Your pal Yukio has been real helpful in that department, Amaimon."
Impmon gave Dante a dull look.
"Y'know, man. I thought we were here for-"
Dante thrust out one hand, holding up a finger. Impmon immediately silenced.
"Patience! I am a master of my craft."
His cocky expression didn't falter, but a slight glint appeared in his eye when the doors to the place opened.
"Dinner's just about ready to be served," said the silver haired Devil Hunter, his hand falling lazily to his side. He lightly patted a large instrument case that was propped up beside him.

"Really. Well, if you say so, though I've got my doubt... Gotta wonder what someone like you is doin' all the way out in a place like this, though."

Impmon snorted into his soda, nearly spaying it out over the table. Yes, Dante realized the irony. He'd deal with his partner later.
"No rioting or burning villages? Twisting mortal whims to your every desire? Geesh. Satan's kids have gotten soft."

"What I do is my business. I'm hungry. Mortals die too easily anyway. They're no fun."
