Image 2 is a Screenshot of Hazbin Hotel Season 1 Episode 1 during the Happy Day in Hell song. Charlie holding Vaggie's hand and spinning around fast while singing "Something tells me that today will be a happy day in Hell."
The greatest possible cosmic joke in Hazbin Hotel would be if Alastor ended up standing at the gates of Heaven when he died despite all of the sins he committed in life
It is canon that none of the angels know what gets a human soul into heaven, so it’s plausible that someone could sin, not repent at all, yet still end up in heaven for some unknown reason
And given what Alastor is like, he’d probably be freaking out about it because he wanted to go to hell
To him, hell is the epitome of freedom where you can get away with anything and didn’t have to pretend to be anything other than what you are, so he’d hate being sent to heaven
I can just imagine Alastor in front of the golden gates, screaming and kicking at the floor trying fall to Hell, and St. Peter stands there watching the whole thing and being very confused
Okay uhh, chalries design, Saint Peter's role in the au, and the Alastor vs Emily thing which oneee to doo
It's Peter. So, ahem
Emily and Saint Peter were best friends in heaven, and when she's forced to go back up there, he just stares at her knowingly until she looks away In a silent 'I'll tell you later I PROMISE-' and he's satisfied
I imagine their like twins or smth, not actually bit in a found family sense- Emily would be that very intense older sister, and Peter would be that obedient little brother
I think he'd be the only heaven born from lucifers' time to have never misnamed her or called her lucifers replacement :)
"Peter if Adam ever comes near me when I'm alone again I need you to make up and excuse and get me out of there because it is not a wanted conversation' okay???" "....aye-aye ma'am!!" "Okay, okay....thank you Pete" "course Em!"
They would platonically cuddle, I am telling you- best friends, sibling coded in this au!!
Now then, Peter's role is the same but in the finale episode instead of pentiouse showing up infront of Wmilt amd Sera, he shows up at the gates and Peter flisp through his book
"...I'm not see you on the ksit but you....look the part....oh wait! It's on the last page, "HAZBINS" in red lettering, there's your name! Sor pentious!.....huh....Em mentioned something about being redemption....."
I like that the Welcome to Heaven song is the only time we see singers out of breath. It just really drives home that this is a performance: this is what they want you to think of heaven—it's a show put on for Charlie.
Everyone else's songs are naturally integrated musical-style. Even when other characters make fun of the singing, you're not supposed to be pulled out of the immersion, except for this one.
Say what you want.
But you do not simply follow a basic-looking guy to martyrdom along with 11 of your closest buddies without at least some Gay Battery in ya'.
This saint is not in Heaven unless he's...
♫ In the arms of an angel... ♫
Hazbin Hotel's Peter character has the worst fucking design. EVER.
Og Peter is a Jewish fisherman who's top most notable biblical actions were cutting of a priest's slave's ear with a sword, denying Christ three times before the rooster's crow, and being crucified upside down. None of those elements are in his design.
Instead he's a boring ass, bland, blonde and blue eyed angel. And like why the fuck is he even an angel?! That's not how angels work!!
-Peter, like Emily, genuinely believes in Heaven's ideals; after all, he worked alongside a man who preached them. However, over a millennium of actually seeing heaven up close has left him internally screaming; at night he goes home to cry.
-Peter's friend is in heaven, too, but he mostly prefers to take an observational role.
-Both Peter and his friend dislike Adam; they do approve of what Emily's doing, even if they don't show it.
