Ash Paused As He Entered The House To Find The Three Women Lined Up And... Singing To... Dear Gods, Anything But This. "fergilicious." All He Needed Was For Simi To Be Here And Off-key With Them Since It Was Her Favorite Song And He'd Spent The Better Part Of The Last Year Cursing Whoever Was Dumb Enough To Introduce That Song To A Hormonal Teenaged Demon.
