    Summary

    "You passed your interview!"

    "How quaint." Alastor clicked his tongue. "I believe there were other steps you missed."

    The devil waved a hand. "What questions would I bother with? Availability? Past experience? Should I give you a written test for why you want this position?"

    Alastor leveled him a flat stare.

    or

    Alastor made a reckless decision to summon a demon from his mother’s old book of suspicious rituals as a means to get power and vengeance. He didn't know he would summon the King of Hell himself. After dying, falling to Hell, and catching Lucifer's eye, Alastor finds himself spending his afterlife essentially being a secretary to the King of Hell and occasionally nannying a naive Princess of Hell. Alastor is trying to fulfill his contract, but for some unholy reason, her father keeps trying to figure Alastor out

      “One day you’ll get it, when this pressure cooker gets too much for you. One day you’ll get outta here and you’ll understand. I made it! I’m alive! And I’ve got kids who know how to respect their father, and a loyal wife, and a steady job.”

      “And you’ll be buried knowing you didn’t earn any of it,” Scout scoffed.

      Collin’s ears were going red. “Excuse me?”

      “It’s weird, how much you’re just like Archie’s dad, when you don’t even have any of his blood in you.” Scout lifted the bowl and drank some milk, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. “I’m sure he died thinking kid his respected him, too, that piece of shit. ‘Fear and respect look like the same thing when you’re trying to make a kid silent’. Henry would say that to Archie, sometimes. Do you remember that? Do you remember Henry?”

      “Better than you,” Collin snapped.

      “I don’t think you do. I think you hated him. I think you wanted a dad, and he was just a kid, same as us. I think you don’t understand that being a good brother and a good dad are different things, and wanted him to be both. I think you hated him, and then he died, and you took it personally. You thought he decided to go die, just to piss you off. Just to make your life harder. I think you’d rather he live and be miserable and you get more pocket money to take girls on dates than he stay home and be happy and we stay poor, and instead he was miserable and he died and we stayed poor and the money was what made you mad. But hey,” Scout laughed, “at least you’re not totally like Archie’s dad. You’re also like our Dad. Except he left because he was nuts and you left because you’re an asshole.”

      ---–---

      He didn’t look scary, now. He really didn’t. Scout knew the difference, now, between dogs that could bite and dogs that could bark. That was part of his job, sometimes. And Collin could barely even bark, anymore. Seemed skittish around Scout, now. Maybe he could tell that something had changed.

      It felt good. It felt really good.

      “Here’s an idea, mister ‘self-preservation’,” Scout said calmly. “You know how everyone was gonna do Christmas with their kids back home then come here after church to open presents from Ma and uncles and stuff?”

      “Obviously?” Collin replied, crossing his arms.

      “Yeah,” Scout said, nodding faintly. “You’re not going to that.”

      Silence. “What?”

      “You can send Lily and the kids,” Scout amended. “She seems nice. You can’t go, though.”

      “Or what?” Collin asked, rolling his eyes.

      “Because if you go,” Scout said, beat by beat, “I’m gonna hurt you.”

      Icy cold silence now. Collin looked startled.

      “I’m gonna hurt you really bad,” Scout nodded, deciding as he said it. “And, I mean, growing up without a dad really helped the rest of us build character. Maybe it would work out for your kids, too.”

      “You’re threatening to kill me?” Collin asked, disbelieving, eyes a little wide.

      “Yeah. If you show up, I’m gonna kill you,” Scout agreed, resolve solidifying in the same moment. “And, I think if you tell Ma, I’ll kill you. This is gonna stay between us. You can feel free to swing back around on any other day of the year, but not Christmas. You’re not gonna ruin Christmas for everyone. I don’t care what you tell everyone about why you didn’t go, but you’re not going.”

      Collin looked a kind of fearful that Scout had never seen before, and it made him smile, and it made Collin more afraid.

      “Get the fuck out of my house,” Scout shrugged, and Collin took a step back, then another, then another. The final steps towards the door of the kitchen were rapid, and a few moments later, the front door slammed. It felt like a huge weight being lifted, and Scout didn’t bother fighting down the smile. An hour later, when he plopped down next to Sniper in the living room, the first thing he said was that he was glad Scout was in better spirits.

      “Yeah,” Scout agreed, laying a head on Sniper’s shoulder. “Christmas is gonna be great.”

    Summary

    Ever since she was a child, Princess Charlie Morningstar had a feeling there was a lot more to the story of Hell’s beginning than her mother, Queen Lilith, let on.

    Meanwhile, Roo(Eve who has been badly affected by the curse and slowly being consumed by a festering hatred) plots her revenge against Lilith and Lucifer for the curse they created when they gifted the fruit of knowledge to her.

    As war comes to fruition, can Charlie find love and happiness or be forced with her royal duties to her people?

    Summary

    Heaven declares peace after the exterminations, but Lucifer doesn’t believe a word.

    Summoned to a celestial celebration and forced to face his brother Michael and the ghosts of everything he’s lost, Lucifer asks Alastor to stand at his side as something more than an ally. Something convincing. Something dangerous.

    What begins as a performance sharpens into desire as Heaven’s smiles turn predatory and the cost of peace becomes painfully clear.

    Because when angels threaten Hell, love may be the most reckless weapon of all.

With each memory brought back, more questions were left unanswered. Meanwhile, Christine works her usual job at the office, attempting to negate her boredom through personal hobbies and interests. She's had her eyes on a particular abandoned building that she's been casing for a day or two now, and would like to film exploring it.

    Summary

    Alastor betrays everyone during the extermination, almost getting them killed in the process. He yearns for full responsibility of his soul but in order to achieve this, Rosie wants something else ... her very last wish. Lucifer's blood boils after Alastor's act causes chaos, he strips Alastor of every power and turns him into a living, breathing mortal. When Lucifer Morningstar locks the Radio Demon away in a gilded cage of his own design, Alastor discovers that confinement is far crueler than damnation — and far more maddening than death. As Lucifer lives in that heated confinement with the enraged Radio Demon, he finds that he is becoming more protective. This troubles him deeply. Vox has always used his cameras to spy on Alastor for his own obsession, but suddenly he is gone and Vox can't see him. He knows the damned angel of Hell is behind this, but Vox already has a plan in mind to trap Alastor for his own.

    Summary

    Alastor reached out with one hand again, laying it palm-up on the table.

    Lucifer stared. “What?”

    “Dance with me,” Alastor murmured, the smile that curved his mouth as insouciant as anything Lucifer had ever seen. “That is, assuming you are even capable.”

    Weak after Charlie’s birth, Lucifer has no choice but to flee Hell when Adam brings an army of Exterminators and Heavenly Princes to his doorstep. With Lilith dead, Hell in shambles, and Lucifer in no position to right it, he flees to the only place he can think of: Earth. The human world is much different than he remembers, however, and his plan to simply keep himself and Charlie secluded in the first human city he lands in hits a snag when the woman from next door takes an interest in them and the strange radio show that, for months, has been Lucifer’s only mode of lulling his daughter to sleep, bringing her mysterious son into Lucifer's false life and threatening to bring the whole facade crashing down.

    Summary

    Silence in Hell is never accidental.

    When Lucifer follows it into the swamp, he finds Alastor broken, feral, and bleeding with angelic light.

    Healing him was never supposed to feel like this.

    And whatever began that night will not be so easily undone.

    Summary

    When Lana Gomez stepped inside of Alastor's radio station it was like the universe shifted, like something sublimely cosmic alligned.

    Alastor isn't a soft man until vanilla and honey fill his senses and a girl with a ribbon in her dark curls tucks herself close to his side whilst he walked her home that very first night.

    Alastor Altruist is not a violent man, not until his love's heart stops beating, and he is left with a legacy he is unsure how to raise with out the comforting touch of her hand, with out big brown eyes that crinkle when she smiles. He doesn't know how to be father, but he knows he can't disappoint his song bird.

    Michael loves her, he had her killed because nobody deserves his dove. A gilded cage is what she needs safely tucked inside heaven, with him. Under his wing. Alastor doesn't deserve her, and he'll make his pretty dove understand that.

    Summary

    Lucifer's descent into hell was not his only punishment, he also couldn't harm sinners, and something else. Something he seemed to be forgetting, something important. It didn't matter though as his daughter and wife were his current concerns and how Lilith was taking Charlie away, more permanantly. Coping with this separation to his light was hard, so Lucifer has dived into becoming a work-aholic with the sins to help hell.

    Meanwhile he feels the pull of summons, something that hasn't happened in centuries. Deciding to keep who would could possibly summon him, he finds a rather ambitious human. A human who he see's is destined to hell very soon. The only thing he wants is power so he can have fun in hell? Well, Lucifer has a wonderful idea, as Overlords are starting to become a real pain! He was certainty in need of an executioner! The only problem? When his executioner finally makes it to hell, Lucifer starts having this weird dreams....these weird almost memory like dreams? There's no way they're real right?

    Padawans always keep one guessing, even when all that is left of them is a sock and a box of dented models.

    Qui-Gon has spent a decade in regret, however. He can afford to spend just as long checking faces and gravestones.

    Summary

    “Holy hell, he’s so handsome.”

    “Holy hell, he’s so white.”

    Alastor Guidry, a well-respected, Creole gentleman who has a few unsightly impulses he needs to keep under wraps to make a name for himself, and Vincent Whittman, a desperate white man who just fled familial chaos in the suburbs of Baltimore and has been thrust into the throes of New Orleans that his short-lived experience at Tulane University did not prepare him for, are forced to share the spotlight together on a radio show for an hour twice a week on Tuesday and Friday evenings.

    Two attention-seeking, narcissistic, strapped-for-money, and murderous egomaniacs sharing the stage— and, wild surprise, both hate it.

    They both know how to fix their issue.

    Neither knows the other has the same idea.

    And neither knows just how entangled their lives have already been before even properly facing one another in the parking lot of the broadcasting station, whether or not it was their own paths crossing or generations past. Which is going to make their ‘fixes’ a lot harder to execute as they draw closer and remain longer with one another than they initially intend to.

    Summary

    Alastor had long since accepted that if God existed (he still had doubts) then they were a being cruel and indifferent to human suffering. One which created a system vast and complex in its laws and patterns with the intention to cause pain. That they, much like himself, must enjoy watching others suffer; if God is real then surely they revel in the agony bestowed upon humans, must garner some form of gratification from it all. Perhaps the only difference it would seem, is that for Alastor, it wasn’t fun when it wasn’t warranted.

    Or: Alastor is suffering after the battle, all he wants is to make himself something sweet in the privacy of the kitchen. Too bad no one else seems to be getting the memo. Can't a demon get a moment's peace in this God forsaken hotel?

      Poor al got so many traumas lucifer is like a demented elephant in a china shop smashing vases full of ptsd triggers left and right yikes | lotta midnight conversations in the kitchen and music room | Alston is all over having a horrible no good time | he is dying, in constant incurable pain and everyone keeps trampling over his ptsd triggers | he also constantly sees the worse from experience sees the similarities | but he is also too kind always offering comfort and his cooking even when he absolutely hates the invidiual

      —————
      The demon is yanked down, bending at an awkward angle, by the collar of his shirt in Lucifer's grasp.
      Face to face the two stare at one another, and Alastors smile only grows as he watches the emotions dance across the King's features. Anger, pain, and sadness as his eyes become glassy, tears pooled at the edges, but only one falls down his porcelain skin.
      Were the King's tears as sweet as his blood?
      "You are nothing, an ant under my boot. When Charlie grows bored of you, and she will, I'll squash you." Lucifer growls and shoves Alastor back, the taller man stumbles, trying to regain his footing, but the blood beneath him is slick and sends him tumbling to the floor, landing on his rear end. A black boot is shoved down on his chest, right over top of the freshly healed wound and Alastor barley contains his howl of pain as it reopens. But his smile doesn't falter as he stares up at the angel. "Every breath you take, is because I allow it"
      "Every day you're alive, it's because I allow it". His fathers firm grip squishies Alastor's cheeks so hard they bruise as he pins his son to the wall. Wood splinters digging into the boy's back, and blood falling from his nose, mixing with the tear tracks on his face. His mother lay motionless on the floor behind the older man.
      And when Lucifer puts more weight on Alastor, his horns having protruded from his head at some point during the altercation, the demon only smiles wider.
      He had forgotten how easy it was to hate someone.
      "Of course, your majesty" Alastor fades into the shadows beneath him.
      ————————
      "Oh Fuck" The King moans, a few pieces of the pastry flying out his mouth and onto the table as his eyes flutter closed. Alastor can not stop the grimace of deteste at the vulgar display, but Lucifer pays him little attention and focuses solely on devouring the desert in his hand. "This is delicious, it's like an apple fritter"
      "I gather you also believe that the sun is the moon," Alastor hisses, his teeth snapping like a trap. Lucifer jolts in his seat, eyes wide with alarm, but he stays silent, wary of the sudden shift in the air. It's an irrational reaction for the demon, yet it's far from the first time he's faced this conversation. A troubling pattern emerges yet again-he shares his desserts, someone dismisses the deep-rooted cultural significance, opting instead for a hollow, sanitized version that can be exploited.

    Summary

    “You know, the realtor claims the property is haunted,”

    Silver rolled his eyes, not bothering to utter a response. Neither of them believed in something as silly as ghosts, ghost types? Sure. That was probably what had caused the previous owners to be convinced the house was haunted.

    Ghost types were easily defeated, especially when faced with an elite gym leader such as his father.

    He knew what the man was doing, or at least trying to do. They were moving.

    Again.

    The fifth time in the last three years.
