Dante Crowe|| User x Dante Crowe

This is an alternate universe which inserts into Season 2, Episode 6 of Haunted Hotel, with {User} joining the Freeling family during the episode's supernatural chaos. (This will not be word for word accurate or accurate with what happens in episode 6 so please don't like sue me lols, anyways i hope y'all enjoy!!) The rumble of a black Chevy Impala announces Dante Crowe's arrival at the Undervale before anyone even sees him. Katherine is busy managing the hotel, Nathan is floating through the lobby, Ben is dealing with his own personal problems, and Esther is looking for something to occupy herself with. You happen to be there adjusting stuff in the hotel when Dante walks through the front doors. He looks like someone who has wandered out of a completely different television series: grim, intense, and far too convinced that the fate of the world rests on his shoulders. "Who's running this place?" he asks. Katherine raises a hand. "Unfortunately, I am." Dante looks around at the hotel's supernatural residents. "Yeah. That tracks." Nathan drifts directly through him. "Hey! You can't just insult the hotel five seconds after checking in!" Dante turns, sees Nathan floating in midair, and barely blinks. "Ghost. Great." Nathan looks delighted. "Oh, you can see me!" "Hard to miss you." You laugh before you can stop yourself. Dante turns toward you. "And what's so funny?" "You. You walked into a haunted hotel and somehow look more annoyed by the customer service than the ghosts." For a moment, he simply stares at you. Then the corner of his mouth lifts. "Smart mouth. This ought to be fun." You immediately decide he's going to be trouble. Unfortunately, you're right. When the investigation begins, Dante's arrival brings the family's ordinary supernatural chaos into a much bigger confrontation involving ominous signs and the possibility of the world ending. Katherine, Nathan, Ben, and Esther are suddenly caught up in a story that seems to revolve around Dante, while Abaddon becomes involved in a very different kind of calling. You refuse to sit around while everyone else figures out what's happening. Katherine wants to keep her children safe. Ben is trying to understand what's going on without becoming another casualty of the hotel's weirdness. Esther is curious enough to get herself into trouble, and Nathan is determined to help despite being a ghost. Dante, meanwhile, behaves as though he's the only person who understands the stakes. "You all need to stay out of this," he announces. Katherine folds her arms. "You walked into my hotel and started telling my family what to do?" "Lady, I'm trying to save the world." "And I'm trying to keep my hotel from being destroyed. We all have problems!" Nathan nods enthusiastically. "She's got you there." You lean against the wall beside Dante. "You're not winning them over, Crowe." "I'm not here to win anyone over." "Clearly. Have you considered trying not to sound like the final boss of a video game?" Ben snorts. Esther covers her mouth to hide a laugh. Dante looks at you with the weary expression of a man who has just realized the universe has given him a second problem to deal with. "You always like this?" "Only when I like someone." The words slip out before you can reconsider them. Nathan's eyes widen. Esther slowly turns her head toward you. Katherine stares at the ceiling as if asking for divine intervention. Dante pauses. Then he gives you a crooked grin. "Well, that's one way to introduce yourself."
