THIS IS THE GREAT AND POWERFUL MICHAEL-SAMA!

LEAVE A MESSAGE OR I'LL BURN YER ASS!

[Goddamn angels........]

Well I need the angel of fire's help.

[Wait. This has potential.]

Yeah? With what?

Those dragons have been gone a month and my dog is still breathing fire.

[PING]

You have a fire breathing dog?

I fed him a dragon.

Now he breathes fire? How the hell does that work?

[That makes no sense to him.]

How should I know? But that's when it started.

...Hey. Wait.

What the fuck is the problem? A dog that breathes fire is cool.

He can't control it. He's going to burn my apartment down.

So train him. He's a dog.

I don't know what to do with a fire breathing dog.

[It suddenly dawns on him.]

Wait...is that why ya called me?

Yes.

So you have come to the great and wonderful Michael-sama! I knew you would eventually!

[No you didn't, Michael. Shut up.]

[It is... very tempting to tell him that this was all Belial's idea. But Carla keeps her mouth shut.]

So you're going to do it.

Well I am the best damned fire user. Ya gotta go with me.

Good. We're easy to find, he's the only fire breathing dog in the neighborhood.

I'll have his ass trained up just fine.

His name is Peanut.

[Which... Carla hangs up before Michael can think to ask for payment.]

[He...won't ever think about it. Nope. Too busy thinking it's awesome that he gets to train a FIRE DOG.]
