    Summary

    "Oh?" Dabi taunts in that flashfire voice of his; and Hawks is reminded, yet again, how easily he burns. "Tell me, what poor little bastard's gonna be riding your ugly-ass coattails for the next few months?"

    Hawks frowns, realizing he's just set up a question he actually has to answer. Dabi will find out anyway, won't he? If there's one thing Hawks has learned, it's that Dabi has his ways. Hawks can never hide anything from him, no matter how hard he tries, a fact that will someday spell his undoing –– but there's no way around it now.

    Willing his fight-or-flight instinct into silence, Hawks reminds his sharpened feathers he's not here for either. It'll be fine. The worst part of removing a bandaid is the dread before you rip it off. Right?

    So Hawks braces himself, and answers:

    "Todoroki Shouto."

    ---

    Hawks' doomed flight towards the sun is thrown off-course when he receives a surprise request from Endeavor's son, asking to be his work-study student. And soon, Dabi's worst nightmare takes a new form when Shouto joins Hawks' obvious-as-hell spy mission, putting them in forced proximity -- only for him to discover that his father's perfect masterpiece is nothing like he thought he was.

    Summary

    In 1933 Alastor manages to summon a demon with a rectangular, glowing head who keeps staring at him like he can't decide between tearing him apart and worshipping him at his feet.

    Meanwhile, Vox just blew up himself and the entire universe and suddenly stands before a second chance. He simply has no idea what that second chance entails.

    Summary

    New Orleans, 1933.
    Vincent Whittman’s assignment (punishment) seems simple enough: recruit Mr. Alastor Hartfelt, the city’s famed radio star.
    But his trip derails the moment he meets the man dressed in a smile too sharp, with secrets too deep, and a presence that hums with something far beyond him.
    One broken ritual binds them for decades, pulling them back to each other again and again, to the one soul neither can quite break away from.

    Summary

    “So, Rosie.” Alastor straightened himself in his seat, taking his teacup and indulging in a sip. “Now that you’ve heard the tale, I come to you for advice on what to do with our little serpentine king. Please, enlighten me: why is Lucifer Morningstar acting so strangely around me?”

    Rosie took a deep breath and set her cup on its saucer. “How’s the tea, darling?” she asked, hands folded on her lap.

    Alastor blinked once, then twice. “Why, it’s lovely, as per usual.”

    Rosie smiled sweetly. “Good. Not too bitter?”

    “Not at all.”

    “And how’re the fingers, dear? They taste alright?”

    “They’re simply delightful.”

    “Is your chair nice and comfortable?”

    “The comfiest.”

    “You’re all relaxed?”

    “I’ve never felt so at home.”

    “Lucifer is in love with you.”

    Alastor spat out the tea he’d been drinking, which was quickly followed by a round of coughing so harsh you would think he was actively dying.

    Alastor has a chat with Rosie regarding Lucifer’s odd behavior.

    Rosie finds it all quite amusing.

    Alastor does not.
