He takes off a bag of holding from his back and removes a box of donuts, trading it for the pizza box. "These are gluten-free and vegan, but not sugar-free. Hope that's okay with everyone. I make em' myself, and let me tell you, coming up with a recipe that omits eggs and yeast is an all-night effort."
'These are actually amazing. Can't taste a difference, it''s just... sweet donutty awesomeness!' The guy passes the donuts around, until all of the Air Vent Bros' faces are covered in sugar. 'Ya gotta be some kinda chef, right? Like, professional?'
"Nope. I'm a monster hunter. Donuts and coffee are a very good side gig. Used to be the other way around, until I lost my shop to a demon attack." He begins eating the pizza as he drinks his coffee.

'A demon attack? I was a demon hunter back in the day, well, a part-time one. Linward Locke, part-time demon hunter, that's right'. He speaks with a slight Cockney accent

"Oh yeah, didn't you write that book? The something hunt of something? I wrote a lot of that into my own grimoire o' haints and horrors. I specialize in fiends and undead, and I'm learning about fey." He looks down at the pizza, examining it closer.

'Yeah, that was me.'
'Which means it was also me' one of the other guys chimes in
'Not how it works.' he calls back 'Sorry about that. But yeah, that grimoire sounds cool. Always good to meet someone from the same line of work. Well, same night job, different day job'

He nods. "My hunting style relies on using a big arbalest. That's pretty much all I have that's distinctive, though. I'm pretty new to the whole business, and haven't developed a brand yet. Well, not for monster hunting, but my donuts are pretty popular, all things considered."
He takes a closer look at the guys around him.
"So y'allz are the same guy from different worlds or something? That's pretty cool. Why you in the vents, though?"

'Maybe the donuts could be ya brand? And yeah, we're the same guy. Pretty funny actually. When the ship docked on my world, this guy over here, complete doppelganger pretty much, he got me to sneak aboard. Turns out there's one of us in maybe every universe. And us, we're cruising round here together. Plus, probably safer here than where the enemy is. We like it here in the vents. Well, I say we, it was a compromise.

"Crazy world we live in, huh?" He chuckles weakly. "I don't think donuts will make people want to hire me for monster hunts. Might make them think I'm too soft, and I'm already a strugel."

Through the water, a serpent like creature crashes over the waves like a snake of the water. It's scales are black as night, so shiny they reflect the light like little mirrors themselves. Suddenly, right before it crashes into the ship, it seems to collapse into itself and into a tall man.
He waves a hand, water suddenly disappearing as if it was never there to begin with. He stands wearing a simple black robe, his inky black skin dappled with scales. His long black hair falls along his shoulder, framing a soft face. His face is painted white with black lips and eyeliner that accent his pure white eyes, empty and pupil-less. He is dappled in silver jewelry, brackets, rings, and necklaces.

A skinny strugel, probably no more than 20 pounds, walks over, his steps small and his paws shaking. "H-howdy. You a s-spirit?" It's surprisingly hard to tell what emotion he's expressing in his voice.
