TWENTY-TWO

TERRIBLE NICKNAMES FOR HELL’S NEW BOSS LADY

  1. Queen of the Damned. No. Anne Rice had that one pretty well covered.
  2. Chieftess of Demons. Barf.
  3. The Devourer. Not flattering. “Hey, look, here comes the Devourer! Hide the bacon.”
  4. The Loud One. Oh, just shut up, Marc. Shut up already. No.
  5. Princess of Darkness. Sounded like a bad porn. Or bad Dungeons & Dragons.
  6. Princess of the Power of the Air. Too long. And what did it even mean?
  7. The Accuser. That just makes me sound shrill.
  8. The Beast. That just makes me sound fat.
  9. God of This Age. Too self-important.
  10. Queen of the Bottomless Pit. Too depressing.
  11. Power of Darkness. Too Magic: The Gathering.
  12. Ruler of This World. Too . . . hmm. I’d think about that one.
