Moustaaaaaaache
Stuff what I couldn’t show in-story: after Bert’s leg was fully healed and he officially became a servant, he was relocated to the tiniest room. It’s still a pretty decent room, but he felt slighted anyway.

Can demons even *get* hangovers?
Also, too, even though this is quite a few steps down from his glam-them-and-bang-them days living high on the hog, he can hardly complain. Even the smallest room in this backwater is preferable to eternal hellfire for failing to make his soul quota.
Also, three: why does a demon need a chamberpot?
Well, when Bert got downgraded into human form, he got stuck with all the downsides of it. Remember chapter 2? He didn’t use to even need human food. I’m sure he only ever bothered to pee to write stupid words on the ground. Now, though, he’s got to deal with it on a daily basis, because he needs to process the food like everybody does.
In hindsight, maybe I should have made a bigger deal of it. Back then Bert was taking everything a little too gracefully, what with the threat of oblivion looming over him. He doesn’t complain about it out loud (because he’s afraid of Cath and Odessa), but he still complains to himself.
