The Finer Things in Death
Alastor x Soulmate!Female!Reader
Summary: An AU where your soulmate's first words to you are tattooed on your body in their handwriting.
Oh dear, where's your smile?
You knew those words by heart. Could recite them backwards, in your sleep even. Those damning words have been inscribed on the inside of your ankle for as long as you could remember, the elegant cursive strokes poking out of your shoe line.
In theory, somewhere, someone else was supposed to be sporting your own neat, boxy handwriting. You'd say you lucked out with yours. Some soul marks were less than pleasant, and others were downright embarrassing (imagine having the words move, asshole written on your stomach for the rest of your life. No thank you).
At least your soulmate was trying to cheer you up, right?
Yeah, but there was just one teeny, tiny problem.
Your soulmate was dead. Long dead actually.
Were they stillborn? Did their toddler self die in a house fire or something? Night after night you laid awake in your bed, pondering what the hell could have possibly happened to have altered the entire course of fate.
All you really knew was that your soul mark was a light gray (indicating a severed bond) instead of the usual inky black, and it had been since the day you were born. Everyone was in shock to see the faint words on your little ankle. After all, how could a soul mark exist if the other person wasn't even alive to speak those words into existence?
Simply put, you were a conundrum, and it had been some time since you had dedicated effort into figuring out why? You'd accepted it. Your soulmate was dead. Life went on.
Besides, you'd spent enough time grieving over someone you'd never met before.
Your lifestyle was not extravagant by any means, but it was comfortable. You had a steady income, lived on your own in an apartment in the city, and survived off of more than ramen bowls. Every day you would come home and read in your little fluffy alcove that you'd built yourself by your window, or pop open a bag of chips (and the occasional bottle of wine, if you were feeling fancy) while you watched the latest crime show releases from your couch.
Yes, so comfortable was your little routine, that you didn't notice the robbery happening in the convenience store you were browsing in, or the stray bullet coming for your head until it was too late. Your skull exploded in a world of pain, eyes rolling back as your body crumpled to the ground.
Dying was an interesting experience, to say the least. Your soul floated from your body, the final notes of music that blasted from your earphones fading into nothingness like the sound of a car driving away.
There was a brief moment where you were struck numb, hovering in the air as you stared down at your glassy eyed corpse, blood pooling alarmingly from the circular shaped hole in your head. You heard screams of the other customers behind you, but they were kind of muffled, like you were underwater.
It didn't last long though, because before you knew what was happening, you felt an almighty tug downwards,  like an anchor had just chained itself to your stomach.
And that was how you ended up in hell. Fun. What were you here for? You had no idea. Maybe God got mad that your teenage self stole a few packs of gummy bears in high school. But a life of eternal damnation and suffering seemed a little harsh, didn't it?
Before you could contemplate the semantics of it though, something...strange happened. Your ankle, right where you'd tried countless times to forget your soul mark existed, was burning like a fucking brand.
You hissed sharply in pain, frantically pulling down your sock to assess the damage. Was the eternal punishment starting already or something? Shit, you had terrible pain tolerance.
But what you saw made you gasp. In fact, you could hardly believe your eyes.
Because in the place of your faded grey soul mark, the letters had been reinvigorated, darkened with a swift hand and—glowing they were glowing holy shit.
"Hah," you huffed in disbelief, shaking your head slowly. "So that was it, huh? I was destined to meet my shitty soulmate in hell this whole fucking time?" You punctuated the last words with a few angry kicks to an unassuming patch of weeds. What a cosmic joke at your existence.
But, like you always did in shitty situations, you gathered all of your raging emotions, stuffed them tightly in a box at the back of your mind, and cooled your head. Freaking out in this place would do you no good.
Turned out hell was pretty much like the world you'd left, except for the fact that you could kill someone on the street and nobody would bat an eye. Like all of the depraved aspects of humanity were on full display now in a somehow still functioning society.
You managed to snag a job at an old record store, the owner giving you one look before grunting and gesturing to the register—but not before lifting his jacket to show you the long assault riffle strapped across his chest. Yeesh, you got the message.
It wasn't a bad job by any means, especially considering where you were. Sure a little boring and monotonous, but you'd restock thousands of old albums if it meant staying away from the overlords.
Oh, yeah, another thing. Overlords were like the big shots around hell. Messing with them usually meant a death sentence, or worse, a contract.
And if there was anything at all that you picked up from all those nights of watching television, it was that you do not make deals with the devil. Really, elementary level shit. And you'd never actually seen Lucifer, mind you, but these demons were probably a close second, right?
Yeah, so really, you were just living a shittier variant of your life on earth it seemed. Repetitive, safe and comforting. You were even starting to like the scent of musty cardboard, as weird as that was.
And once again, all thoughts of your soulmate slipped your mind.
Until one day, when everything went to shit.
****
It started like this: with the sad sight of your empty fridge.
You groaned, dragging a tired hand down your face. Seriously? You thought you'd restocked already, damn it. 
Your stomach growled achingly, and you sighed, wondering if you'd actually die again if you starved yourself. Begrudgingly, you decided that you didn't really want to chance it, throwing on the first set of clothes that you saw and slipping out of your dingy apartment to make a quick grocery run.
You generally hated leaving your apartment, and didn't do so except to retrieve bare necessities or walk across the block to go to work.
Why? Well, see exhibit A to your left: some poor, random demon screeching and running around on fire. See exhibit B to your right: a turf war between two rival gangs. And finally how could you forget, cannibal colony, slurping up intestines like bloody, chunky spaghetti. Disgusting.
The worst thing about hell wasn't the fact that you were in hell, it was the fact that the worst of the worst people were all cramped together like some fucked up refugee camp, and some people were significantly worse than others. Which sucked, for the poor unfortunate souls just trying to get by. Like you.
You sighed, ducking under a stray stream of bullets (you weren't falling for that shit twice) and side stepping pools of blood and guts. Just a regular Monday morning in hell. God damn it.
It seemed luck wasn't on your side though, because an ugly, dog-headed demon blocked your path, sneering down at you smugly. "Hey bitch, it's your lucky day. The big boss is hiring, and you fit the profile."
You clenched your grocery bags in a white-knuckled grip. Nobody would give a flying fuck if you were dragged off of the street in broad daylight. "Not interested."
"Oh it wasn't a suggestion," he chuckled darkly. You tensed as you were surrounded by at least four other demons. Shit, you knew you should have slept in.
"You like apples?" You nodded sharply at the demon in charge.
His face twisted in annoyance. "Why the fuck do y—"
You reached into your bag, before hurling a granny smith straight at his forehead. He yelped as it made contact, stumbling back as he shook his head in confusion. While everyone was still in shock from your weapon of choice, you shoved your way out of the circle, gunning it straight down the street because your second life did depend on it.
"Get her!" You heard a yell of absolute rage, making you shiver. Fuck, that did not sound promising. That apple must have really pissed him off.
Putting your limited aerobics to use, you ducked, dodged and lunged through the crowd like a pro. Your heart pounded wildly in your chest, air burning your lungs as you pumped your legs faster. But of course, your grocery bag ripped open, sending all of your food tumbling and you by extension, tripping and face planting in the dirt rather pathetically.
A meaty hand gripped a handful of your hair, yanking it up harshly. You cried out as he pulled, hands uselessly trying to smack his away, but his hold only tightened. A liquor-filled breath and cheap cologne invaded your senses, making you cough.
"Uppity bitch," he growled, giving your scalp a painful yank for good measure. "You actually thought you could get away? Maybe I should teach you a lesson, huh? Sample the goods."
You froze, every nerve in your body going cold. So far in your stay in hell, you'd managed to avoid the more depraved souls here. You kept your head down, didn't draw attention to yourself, and were mostly left alone. Looked like today, your luck had finally run out.
"Get the hell off of me!" You spat, twisting around vehemently, only for your head to snap to the side as you were harshly backhanded.
"Stop your fucking whining and stay still!" He snapped, narrowing his eyes.
You bared your teeth, snapping at him aggressively.
A round of mocking chuckles went around the group of your kidnappers, the one holding your hair giving you a wicked grin. "Shit, that was cute. Really—"
He didn't get to finish his sentence, because his head exploded. Literally exploded, blood and brain matter dripping from your face. His hand went slack, dropping you on your wobbling knees.
Everyone was silent for a second, staring at the bloody mess where the demon was standing two seconds prior.
And that was when you heard it. Static. Loud, crackling and ominous.
Your mouth went dry. Shit. Shitty shit shit. You knew what that meant. How could you not? The asshole broadcasted his killings all over hell like a fucking psychopath. And now, it was your turn to become hell's gory entertainment. Fan-fucking-tastic.
You stood frozen, breath stuck in your throat as dark, menacing tendrils slowly curled along the walls. A large, grinning shadow rounded the corner, before the culprit himself stalked into view, razor sharp teeth on display as he tilted his head. "Oh," his grin widened. "Am I interrupting?"
"N-No man," one of the braver demons stuttered, taking a step back. "You can have her—"
Splat.
You turned slowly to face the bloody wall, eyes wide in disbelief.
"How distasteful," the radio demon shook his head. "As if I'd participate in your brainless thuggery. No, no. Unlike you gentlemen, I have class. Truly," his eyes lit up like glowing radio dials, a dark shadowy mass rising behind him as his antlers branched out like a gnarled, rotten tree. "Did your mother never teach you any manners?"
Faster than you could blink, the demons around you were reduced to blood, cartilage and splintered bone. The overwhelming irony scent made you want to gag, but you didn't dare move a muscle, eyes fixated on the terrifying sight before you.
When the radio demon noticed your staring, his smile sharpened, antlers shrinking as he leisurely approached you. Oh no. Nononono.
You struggled to keep from hyperventilating, your body going into shock as he leaned into your personal space. Two bloody fingers pushed into your cheeks, forcing your mouth into a morbid, artificial smile. "Oh dear," he tutted in amusement. "Where's your smile?"
You jerked back violently, eyes wide as icy cold realization washed over you. Dread squeezed your lungs as you stared at the grinning, bloody figure of your soulmate in horror.
The radio demon. Psychopath and mass murderer.
Your soulmate.
What the FUCK.
"T-This," your voice shook. "This is not happening."
There was a sudden screech of radio static, before his own eyes widened. Shit. "What," he said sharply. "Did you just say?"
"A-Ah," you trembled, leaning back. Every single nerve in your body was alight, screaming at you to get the ever-loving fuck away from him.  In what was probably the stupidest and most desperate plan of your life, you pointed over his shoulder fearfully. "Look! Another one!"
As soon as he turned his head, you bolted down the street.
****
You slammed your front door closed behind you, double—triple checking your lock before sliding down to the floor in a panting mess.
Immediately you grew paranoid. What the fuck were you thinking? A lock wouldn't keep the radio demon out. You needed fifty more locks and ten more doors. You needed to barricade yourself inside for the next month. You needed—
"Hello there!" An exuberant voice chirped.
You screamed, throwing the first thing you could grab in his direction. He caught the house slipper, inspecting it in amusement, before tossing it over his shoulder.
"My, did I scare you sweetheart? Apologies," he grinned smugly, relaxing in your recliner with a mug of coffee. Your favorite mug.  
You blinked. What the fuck?
"What are you doing in my house?" You squeaked, fingers digging into your welcome mat.
"Oh dear, allow me to introduce myself," he set the mug down on your coffee table, leisurely rising from the couch and offering a hand. "I'm Alastor! A pleasure to be meeting you sweetheart, quite a pleasure."
You didn't take his hand, instead choosing to gape at him like a dead fish.
He retracted his hand, tilting his head with a shit-eating grin. Twirling his cane, he continued like there wasn't just an awkward and terrifying pause. "I hope you don't mind that I followed you! You see, I believe our conversation was cut a bit...short." His eyes glowed as unidentifiable symbols floated in the air around him.
As quickly as they appeared however, they disappeared like they were never there. Jesus Christ, this man was giving you emotional whiplash. "Anywho!" He perked up again, ever the charming grin on his face. "Enough about me! I've yet to catch your name, darling."
Fuck. You really didn't want to give him your name.
But before you could open your mouth, he leaned closer to you, grin widening ominously. "I hope you're not thinking of lying, my dear. I must say, I'm not very fond of that quality."
"Y-Y/n!" You said quickly, raising your hands to shield your face.
There was a slight pause, before a gentle touch swiped at your cheek, retracting after a moment. You peeked your eye open, only to become vaguely ill at the sight.
"You had a little something on your face," he chuckled in amusement, holding out a clump of brain matter. With a swift flick, it was magicked away.
"What do you want?" You whimpered, overwhelmed with the entire situation.
"Oh dear, is it really that strange for me to want to get to know my soulmate?" He tilted his head, leaning towards you uncomfortably close.
"Y-Yes, actually," you stuttered, trying to look anywhere but his prominent red eyes. "I thought you'd do something more along the lines of...killing and eating me." You shrunk back as his grin widened. "Please don't eat me."
"How morbid, I would never!" He waved it away, like the idea was preposterous. "My word! What awful rumors you've been hearing about me!"
"You frequent cannibal colony and I just saw you tear apart six demons like they were freshly baked bread," you stared at him incredulously. "What hasn't been spot on?"
He paused, before giving you a humoring chuckle. "Well it seems your impression of me needs correcting!" Before you knew what was happening, nimble fingers encircled your wrist, pulling it forward gently. He pressed warm lips to the back of your hand, before giving you a charming grin. "Enchantée, ma chère."
You blinked, breath stuck in your throat. "What—What does that mean?"
"Oh, don't you worry your pretty little head about it!" He gently set your hand down, before pinching your cheek condescendingly. "Well my dear, I'm afraid I have other responsibilities I must attend to!"
He stood up with a flourish, leaning on his microphone cane as he smirked at you. "Not to worry!" He snapped his fingers, and a slim, feminine shadow emerged from the ground. "Missy here will watch over you in my stead."
"What? No, I—"
"I'll be back before you know it!" He offered a chilling smile, before melting into a puddle of shadows.
You gaped at the spot where he once stood, trying to process what the actual fuck just happened. Your gaze slid over to the feminine looking shadow, still standing in the corner of your living room. She grinned at your attention, teeth sharpened.
You closed your eyes, head thumping back against your door in exhaustion. 
"I'm so fucked."

Enchantée, ma chère : Charmed, my dear

The Radio Demon & the Billboard Doe (2)
It's a double feature! Here take it! Take Chapter 2!
Pairing: Alastor x Fem! OC
Warnings: Swearing and mentions of sexual activity?
Genre: Angst?
Word Count: 3.8K
2. Freaky Face
Tumblr media
“You’re a deer!” Was the first thing she said in response
“Indeed I am, darling. Though most tend not to mention it.”
“That’s cool!”
Alastor’s smile grew wider at her child-like reaction “Why thank you.” was all he said
“So what’s your name, you cutie patootie?” Charlie interjected, lovely as ever “We gotta have your name if you’re gonna stay here!”
“My name? It’s…” she stared at herself in the mirror, thinking of what she was now. She was different, yet felt the same. “My name is Voe.” A mix of the old and the new. “Yeah, Voe.”
“Amazing! Love it! Now let’s get you settled, Voe!”
Charlie had felt the need to show her absolutely everything, including the floors that she wouldn’t be staying on. The room she would be staying in was on the 9th floor. The room was equipped with a bed, a small closet, and a full bathroom, including a tub and a shower. She spoke very fast and very much. She spoke about everything. It got to a point that Voe started to tune her out. Her voice became background noise as she studied the patterns and pictures on the walls, wondering how she had the time to do this with every new guest that came to the hotel. Vaggie and Alastor had decided to join them as well, however they were not speaking. She examines the girlfriends’ faces. Charlie had her arms open and was gesturing around quickly, and her eyes were wide and alert, while Vaggie’s eye was somewhat lidded, and her arms were focused inward. Her eye was only focused on either Charlie or the floor. Voe concluded that Charlie was the bright and friendly one, whereas Vaggie was the more standoffish one. 
Alastor though…she could not get as much of a read on him because he chose to stay at the back of the group, and she couldn’t exactly get a clear look a him without very conspicuously turning her head. What she had seen of him that she could picture was his lankiness and his large sharp smile. His smile was constantly in place with only slight deviations between moments. In the time she’d had to look at him, his smile did not budge. 
“And that’s the end of the tour. Any questions?” Charlie beamed at the doe
“Um, so you have like magic right?”
“Well, yes…but I meant questions about the hotel-“ the princess mumbled under her breath
“Can you fix my glasses?” Voe pulls the cracked frames out of her pocket, the lenses gone and legs off-kilter. Charlie leans down and examines them.
“I don’t know, but I’m sure Alastor can help!”
Alastor blinks as if he’s just been brought back down to reality “Hmm?”
Voe turns to him “Can you fix my glasses?” She asks in a flat tone
“Of course!” He puts his hand out and she places the frames in them. Green and black energy starts circling the frames and they pop up as good as new
“Nice!” She takes the frames back and looks at them
“Aww, I’m so sorry! You were walking around here blind and I didn’t even notice!”
“Well, I actually don’t need them,” She smiles “I can see just fine. But I like to have them,” she places the glasses on her face. 
“Oh,” Charlie’s eyes widen as she turns to her partner
Voe turns back to Alastor, who is grinning absentmindedly. She stares at him for a moment before his pupils move down to focus on her
“Did you need something else, my dear?”
She cocks her head “No…” she drags the word out, slowly turning away from him
____________________________________________________________
Voe laid on her back in the bed of the hotel room that Charlie had shown her. What does it mean to be redeemed? How would she know when she was? Or if she was?
There were a lot of things she didn’t know, but what she did know for sure was that she would definitely go stir-crazy if she was kept in this room with nothing for her to do. She left the hotel room and sauntered down to the front desk where Charlie and Vaggie were standing and having a conversation
“So…Charlie!” She interrupts them with a wave “Would it be possible for you to give me money? Because I think that it would make my path to redemption a whole lot easier if I had a phone, a camera, and a laptop.”
“Hmm, I guess that’s true.” 
“Wait wait!” Vaggie stepped in “How is that essential to your redemption?”
“Because…” Voe drags out her words, looking for something to say “It gives me something to do. I personally feel that if I’m being productive, I will be a much better person. You know, instead of feeling awful about myself because I’m just sitting in bed all day.” She glances at Charlie, whose eyes turn sad
“I don’t know about Charlie just giving out money.”
“Oh nonsense! Charlie loves giving out money! She talked about it on the tour!” 
“I did! I do!” Charlie drops a stack of cash into Voe’s open palms
“Amazing, great. You’re the best!” She called to Charlie as she was on her way out the door.
When she returned, she had a plethora of bags. About 10, 5 in each hand. She’d developed the skill of carrying lots of bags in life, and luckily for her, it became easier in death.
“Geez! How much fucking shit did you buy?” A tall and thin white spider. Voe’s jaw dropped when she saw him, she run’s over bringing the bags with her
“Oh my gosh! You’re so beautiful! And you look social! Hi, I’m Voe!” she waves at him
He sits up and smiles “Well thank you. Finally, someone’s appreciatin’ my good looks! And the name’s Dust. Angel Dust.” he does sparkly fingers over his face
“Angie ya bitch! How gay can you be?” A sexy Cyclops woman with a crop top, ripped jeans, a boot, and a flat.
“How much of a whore can you be?” Angel says with a smirk
“I’m a whore?” She laughs, punching him in the shoulder
“Yeah, I do it for pay!”
The Cyclops woman punches him a few more times before noticing Voe “She’s still standing there,” she whispers to him. He looks back over to the doe.
“Welcome to the Hotel! Wait, what I am doin’ I don’t work here.” Angel slinks back down, the length of his body taking up the entirety of the couch.
“Hi, you’re sexy. I’m Voe! What’s your name?” She asks to the Cyclops
“Cherri Bomb…nice to meet you.” She looks a bit apprehensive before turning to the deer. She sits next to Angel, lifting his legs and letting them lay over her lap. He sits up and removes his legs
“Do y’all have Sinstagram? This is mine.” She shows Angel Dust her phone
“Voe the Bee-ow?”
“It’s pronounced like ‘bow’. It’s rhymes!”
“Oh.” Angel looks towards Cherri, silently asking for her to save “That’s nice.”
“Well, we’re gonna go,” She leans down to whisper to Angel “I got some wicked LSD, we can forget whatever the fuck that was”
“Aw Cherri, you know I’m tryna get off that stuff,”
“Alright stay then. Stay here ya’ lousy bitch!”
He scrambles to get up “I’m still comin’”
Cherri and Angel speedwalk out the hotel doors, leaving Voe on the couch alone. They were nice. She thought.
Technically, Voe did ask Charlie for money to get a laptop, a camera, and a smartphone. However, Charlie, being so nice, gave Voe way more than she needed for everything, so she also decided to make some stops at other stores, to get things like a tripod, a ringlight, and maybe some clothes. She set up all her electronics, making sure that the ringlight was in the right place to highlight her best features, and then pressed record.
“Hey, I’m Voe the Beau and I’m here to give you all my opinions on things such as makeup, beauty trends, and technology! Today I’ll start by showing you my outfit hall from today.”
She tried on dresses, blouses, shirts, pants, leggings, and shoes all for the camera, making comments about every single one.
“Now I love the pattern and length on this blouse, but the trimmings make it look like I’m about to go churn some butter,” she chuckles and snorts “and some of these shirts are not ear-friendly. So if you have ears at the top of your head like me,” she points to her ears “Then watch out. Maybe avoid this brand?” Voe zeroes in on the tag “Sinners’eye? Yeah, don’t shop there if you have ears like mine. The hats they sell don’t even have holes in them! So non-inclusive! Also by the way does anyone know a brand or store that sells satin bonnets with ear holes? Because it is incredibly uncomfortable to sleep with my ears covered. I feel like I’m deaf! Or at least like anybody can come into my room without me knowing, like shit! I will say that the shoes come with a hooves-friendly warranty which is great, not for me personally, because I don’t have hooves. No sir, I traded that for this big black schnoz.” She points to her nose. While trying on another dress, she tells the camera “I kinda dig having a tail.” She yanked on it with a bit of force on camera “I’m like a dangerous furry” she growled jokingly with bared claws. She stands directly in front of the lens once more ”I’m thinking of trying makeup next for my video, comment some brands that you think I should try. For makeup, clothes, or tech. I’m Voe the Beau, so let me know!” She wiggles her fingers as a goodbye and gets up to stop recording. 
After sitting in silence for a moment. Voe gets up to retrieve the camera. After connecting it to her computer, she turns it on and sees herself. 
“Hey everybody! My name is Voe! Ugh no. Hey, what up motherfuckers! Ugh, what? That’s way too tryhard. My GOSH, let me just do it.”
She turns on presses record again and suddenly she’s live. 
“Hey, what up Pentagram City? Y’all can call me Voe the Beau, and I’m here to tell y’all what’s Gucci and what needs to go kablooey! As you can see I love rhyming ha ha!” Is heard from demon’s smartphones, tablets, and computers. She hadn’t exactly been expecting zero views, but she definitely wasn’t expecting to get around 1,000 on her first live. 
What can I say? I really am that bitch. 
“So I just got down here to Hell and let me just say, why do we just fall out of the sky into concrete with no idea where we are or what we’re doing? I can goddamn guarantee you that the souls that go to Heaven don’t have to go through that! There’s no welcome committee or nothing. Nothing to ease you in, and I’m like ‘damn’! It’s like getting rammed in the ass with a cactus. And why is everything red? I swear the sky is red, the buildings are red, everyone wears red, or like shades and accents of it. It’s like the only color you see around here is red. I, myself am partial to the color pink. Specifically hot pink, as you can see from the fabulous outfit that I have on right now. Do you guys want to see my outfit? Of course, you do.”
She pushes her chair back and stands in front of the camera, showing off her hot pink blouse and black pants with hot pink wedges.
“I adore these shoes. Do y’all like my shoes? I got them from Sinnera’eye, but beware to all you cats and rabbits, and other animals with ears on your head they don’t carry clothes for you. You can see my full review in the video I’m going to upload later!”
Words begin scrolling up the screen and Voe leans into her laptop to read them.
“Who am I? Well, I’m Voe! I said that at the start. Someone needs a lesson in paying attention. And as you’ll come to learn-I am that bitch Any other questions? How old am I? I’m 27 and like I said, I just got down here to Hell.”
Oh Christ Gen Z is dying now
Do you guys think she’s in Hell ‘cuz she’s gay?
Are you gay?
“Yes, bitch I’m gay as fuck! I love me some pussy! I could eat that shit day in and day out. It’s my favorite snack!”
Is that your real name?
Are you Italian?
“As far as you need to know, yes that’s my name. And no I’m not Italian, I’m blickity Black!”
Does this bitch even know the difference between race and nationality?
“Yes, I know the fucking difference! I wasn’t fucking done. Slut!” She shoots back at the commenter “I just wanted to let y’all know that! No misconceptions. ‘Cuz people used to say I was Hispanic or something all the time when I was alive, and I sure as fuck ain’t letting y’all whores do it!”
Her voice is heard from many devices in Hell, including some in the hotel. Demons are crashing into walls or falling down the stairs from the sheer captivation of her sound and her image.
“So I’m staying at the Hazbin Hotel, run by Charlie...? Charlie something, she ain’t say her last name. And she is cute as fuck. Charlie is so adorable, she’s so light and bubbly and I’m like that could never be me.” She cackles into the camera “Running a Hotel of a bunch of ungrateful ass bitches, could never be me! She got a girlfriend too. Her name’s Vaggie! She is so pretty, honestly, they are both mad cute and they cute together. I’m not gonna break them up like I used to do to people. Hmm? She’s the what? Princess? Holy shit, Charlie’s a Princess? Lucifer? That motherfucker’s real? I need to meet him. Is he hot?”
While walking down the halls a certain facility manager of this hotel seems a bit put off by the lack of people that are running at the sheer sight of him, only to discover that they are glued to their devices. He rolls his eyes. Demons don’t know true entertainment anymore. Back in his day, whole towns used to gather around the radios and listen to what stories the hosts were about to spin. Now everyone’s addicted to these miniature picture boxes that rot their brains even faster than the real thing.
Although walking past these wayward souls had the Radio Demon’s ears pricked at a certain sound. A certain voice. He halts his pursuit to listen from afar.
“Apparently, I’m a doe which is super sick, and I’m the only one that I’ve seen for the few days that I’ve been here. But there’s a stag here with me. Well, not with me, but like-“ the voice pauses “No, here at the hotel. Huh? He’s like tall and really thin. Nah like lanky, bruh.” she laughs “It’s not bad! I didn’t even say anything mean! Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he’s got on a bunch of red, with little antlers on his head. Yeah, he’s got ears on top of his head, it looks like hair, but it’s ears. A doe knows.”
Alastor could hear the smugness in her voice. Who was she to be discussing him on her pathetic technological picture box? Who was she at all?
“Yeah! He’s got this big ass grin all the time.”
The comments start flooding in much quicker than before.
That’s the Radio Demon!
You’re there with the RADIO DEMON
THE RADIO DEMON DIDN’T KILL YOU?
the radio demon isn’t even all that i heard he got his ass kicked 
FUCK THE RADIO DEMON!!!!!!!!11!!!!1!!!!11!
“The Radio Demon..? Huh? This guy said his name was Alastor”
THAT’S THE RADIO DEMON
THAT’S HIS NAME 
OMGGGGGGG!!!1!!1!1!!1!!!!!!!
“Oh. So Alastor is the Radio Demon? Why ya call him that?” 
Alastor’s grin grows knowing that his reputation is still intact and keeps on his merry way. Still wondering why this girl felt the need to bring him up at all. Still, he would find that all out in due time.

Charlie had asked for all the residents to be down at 8:30 in the morning, which is a disgusting time to expect people to be awake and ready to interact with people. So Voe came down at 9, even that was pushing it.  All the other demons were already down, so Voe commanded all the attention when she strutted in like a celebrity.
“Sorry to be late, but 8 AM is ridiculous.” She plops down on one of the couches
“That’s okay!” Charlie reassured her “We just finished breakfast and now we’re doing the first activity of the day!”
Angel points to one of the plates on the table “There’s still toast.” He glances back down at the plate, “Oop, well there’s crust.” Niffty runs by and grabs the plate “Never mind.”
“It’s fine, I don’t need to eat.”
“Huh, I guess you don’t” Angel returns to his phone.
“All right, everyone!” Charlie tries to get their attention “Everyone! Oh gosh, we’ve never had this many guests before” she whispers to Vaggie. She gets slightly louder. “Everyone! We’re just about to get started, okay so everyone listen up, please!” Everyone lowers their volume, though some, including Voe, remain distracted by their phones. The click-clacking of dress shoes is heard descending the stairs, everyone turns their heads to see Alastor approaching the parlor.
“Alastor! You’re just in time for our first activity of that day!” Charlie smiles widely at the red demon
“Oh? So it appears I’m early..” He turns on his heels and retreats back up the staircase.
“Oooo-kay! So, we’re going to go around and introduce ourselves and say one interesting thing you did while you were alive!
Ugh. Voe always hated these when she was alive. It’s always so nerve-wracking to think about. What do other people find interesting? She could never figure it out! They went all the way around, from demons talking about how they’ve hosted the 7’o clock news, to catching butterflies, to fucking 5 bitches in the same night.
“I tried Heroin for the first time and then died.” Angel offered
“You only tried it once before dying?”
“Well, I’d already done a bunch of drugs that day, but when my friend came with the horse, I knew I had to try it! Then I died.” 
“No way! I died with an actual horse! It kicked me in the ribs!”
“This is going great! Not exactly what I had planned but this working Vaggie!” Charlie is filled to the brim with excitement 
“No one gives a fuck about your horse,” Angel responded. “I was talking about heroin.”
“I know…” the girl said, sounding disappointed
“What?”
“Why can’t I make any friends?”
“You’re up new girl,” Angel gestured to Voe, who sat in silence for a moment, still pondering on what to say. She started sweating from all the pressure of the eyes being on her and her being unprepared. She couldn’t think of anything, at all. All that she could remember was her little sexcapades. She was rich of course, she had done cool things, so why couldn’t she remember any of them?
“Hey,” Angel Dust interrupted her thoughts after what seemed like forever “Weren’t you on live yesterday?”
Voe’s demeanor brightens up “Oh, yeah! I’m guessing you caught it?”
“Yeah, I caught that live too!” another demon chimed in, soon the majority of the room was buzzing about her live. Voe beamed at being able to speak on something she was prepared for.
“So you into Freaky Face or something?”
“Angel! Don’t just assume things!” Charlie butt in, also interested in the live
“I’m sorry, Freaky Face?”
“Alastor.” The whole room responded to her
Voe shakes her head quickly, “Oh no no no. I was just commenting on the fact that he’s the only deer I’ve seen besides myself.”
“Mhmm, I guess you could say mating season is open.”
“Ha! That was funny ‘mating season’” said the horse girl, to which Angel responded with a blank stare
“He’s good-looking! I can’t be the only one that thinks that. I am not the only one that thinks that. Stop making me look crazy!”
“No one even said anything,”
“Actually mating season for deer is between October and December” Voe interjects
“Well,” Charlie tries to take charge of the conversation “Alastor is a very nice-looking male.”
Vaggie speaks from behind her girlfriend “He’s…okay. But did we forget that he’s a vicious overlord who not only owns many souls but is a psychopathic, deal-making, mass-murdering cannibalistic monster?”
“Really? But he’s like…” Voe trails off, making gestures with her hands
“Like what?” Angel Dust probes
“Like,” she thinks “Cute.” some of the demons are taken aback by her claim
“You think Alastor is ‘cute’?” Vaggie questioned, hands on her hips and full of skepticism. 
“Yeah,” Voe shrugged “Like, it’s giving…stuffed animal. Or like a pet dog”
“Nah she hasn’t seen all the creepy shit he’s done around here yet. That opinion’ll disappear real soon.” Angel Dust took a swig of his drink “Don’t say that shit to him!” he laughs to himself.
“What is… ‘it’s giving’?” Charlie asked innocently 
“Ugh.” Voe slapped her hand on her forehead “It’s just… I don’t know like, that’s a vibe.”
“Vibe?” 
“It’s just the feeling you get from someone or something,” she shakes her head “I forgot y’all are ancient.”
“Wait, so what do you think of him though?” Angel questioned point-blank
“I don’t think anything about him, I don’t know him.”
“So why’d you talk about him during your live?”
“I don’t know, because he’s a buck! That’s literally it!”
“Mhmm.” Angel takes another swig
“Wait, are you shipping us just because we’re both deer?” Voe looks confused
“I’m so glad that you all feel a sense of community!” said Charlie, after having clearly lost control of the conversation. Vaggie tapped her shoulder to tell her to just give it up. Most demons were just talking amongst themselves at this point, including Angel Dust and Voe, when the very demon they spoke about made his appearance once again.
“I hope that I’m actually on time now.” Alastor stands just outside the parlor, as the demons are instantly quiet in the presence of a supposedly cruel overlord. He had all the eyes in the room on him, saying nothing.
“Well, Alastor we just finished our activity.”
“Wonderful, so I am on time!” He glances at the clock above the fireplace “Well, I have errands to run.”
“You literally just got down here,” Vaggie spoke with annoyance in her tone
“And now I literally have to leave. Best of luck chums!” He exits the hotel and the air is filled with noise again. Voe stares after him. She didn’t notice before that he had a radio filter on his voice. Was that natural or on purpose? 
“Whatcha lookin’ at toots?” he whispers in her ear
Voe looks back at him “Oh, um nothing.”
“Uh huh, maybe you’re not so weird,” he tops off his drink
“Thanks?”

No Minors Allowed!!
Alastor was, in Aelia’s opinion, beyond her expectations. While she was daunted by his predatory smile, as he sauntered around the rustic-styled kitchen, she noted how dapper he was, not only in appearance. 
Each step he took was lively; from stirring the spices in a cast iron kettle, to expertly twirling his thin cane from one arm to the next as he cooked. Aelia was spellbound. But what made her feel this way?
She had never been fond of a man as much as she was of Alastor. His voice alone brought her comfort while she was alive and now that she had met him, Aelia was having a hard time controlling her urge to touch him. It drove her mad. 
What was it about him? His voice? His mannerisms? It was like her body and mind were in perfect sync; weak for him. And no matter how much she tried to steal herself, the temptation was too much. Aelia wondered if this was how an addict felt. 
Alastor certainly was not making matters easier for her with the sleeves of his bright red dress shirt rolled up to his elbows; he shed his pinstripe coat before he started to prep the kettle. 
Aelia took an uneasy breath and clutched the handle of a double-bevel knife tight in her hand. The vèvès on her wrist, she noted, were still glowing. Was this Alastor’s doing? Turning her eyes to him, she watched him stir the kettle as he hummed, standing with his back to her.
“Ah ah ah,” Alastor chided, waving his finger in the air. “It's not polite to stare, my dear.”
Aelia felt her face heat up. How did he know?
“Do you have eyes on the back of your head?”
“Perhaps,” Alastor answered with a wide grin. 
He was aware that Aelia had been on and off watching him since he ushered her into the kitchen. Whenever he would veer around to do something, her soft eyes would avert and she would return to the task he had given her of chopping green onions for a garnish.
Alastor turned and tucked his cane beneath his arm. The tilt of her brow, however, told him that Aelia was troubled. He leaned his head to the side in question.  
“A penny for your thoughts.”
“It's nothing,” Aelia lied. 
She did not want to tell the man she looked up to that she felt uncomfortable around him. 
“I insist that you don't do that,” Alastor stated. His voice sounded much clearer now, then with a buzz it went back to the same old-time radio tone he always spoke in. “Level with me.” 
Aelia swallowed the lump in her throat; her wings sank to the floor. 
“I feel…uneasy in this body. I'm not sure if it's me, or because of the symbols around my wrist. It was you who put them there, was it not?”
She was an astute one. Alastor smiled widely. Raising his arm, he snapped his fingers. The 
Alastor understood. With a wide grin, he snapped his fingers and the vèvès vanished. It was fine; he did not need them to be there anymore.
“How does that feel?”
Not any better, honestly. Aelia pouted. 
“It's me.”
Alastor guffawed, and an ensemble of laughter followed. Her discomfort was delightful. Sinking into his shadow, he reappeared behind her and caged her in between the counter. 
“Go on and sit down,” he ordered near her ear. Aelia shivered in response. Vanishing again, Alastor materialized on the other side of the counter. “I won't be long.” 
Was that necessary? Her body felt like a surge of electricity had coursed through it. Stepping back without a word, she strode from the kitchen to the dining room and did as Alastor had instructed. As she waited for him, she sat at a deco walnut table with an antler centerpiece. It was going to be hard to keep her composer. At least for the moment, she could breathe easier.
However, the air went stiff the moment Alastor strolled in.
Setting the plates down, he took a seat across from her and then snapped his fingers. A set of silverware appeared on the table and the candles lining the centerpiece lit with a green supernatural glow. 
Aelia waited for Alastor to start before she dug in, humming in delight as the spices invaded her taste buds.
“This is delicious.”
“It was my mother’s recipe,” Alastor retorted with pride.
Mostly. In his serving, he left the meat uncooked as per usual. It is how he liked it.
Aelia swallowed a bite of rice. She had never had Jambalaya before. Despite its spicy flavor, she rather liked it. 
For the next 30 minutes, the two ate in silence. Then, once Alastor was full, he dabbed his mouth with a napkin and picked up his cane. 
“Now we can talk shop.” 
Aelia raised a curious brow and sat her fork down. What sort of business did he want to talk to her about?
“You mean your plans for me.”
Alastor grinned.
“Yes…well we shall see how this partnership pans out. First, it's a matter of an agreement.”
An agreement. What did he mean? Aelia watched as Alastor stood and strolled over to her. 
“There is something you owe me; a small fee.”
Aelia felt faint. At the time, she did not realize what Alastor had wanted in return for her favor, but now that she was in Hell, she realized just who the man in front of her was. 
He says ‘small fee’ as though it is just that. 
“You’re a demon, aren't you?”
The smile on his face widened and from over his shoulder materialized a sinister-looking shadow.
“That is astute of you, my dear.”
“It makes sense,” Aelia admitted. Her wings sunk to the floor. “No angel asks someone to kill for them.”
She did not think much of it at first. The people she killed deserved it; child abusers and murderers. In the end, though, she was also a murderer and wound up in Hell for her actions. 
“I owe you my soul.”
Alastor clapped, taking her off guard. 
“Delightful. Your soul you do officially owe me but I must say, you went beyond expectations for me, my dear, and for that, I will offer you a stipulation. Either way, you are mine.” 
Aelia felt her heart race. She wasn't certain if it was because he was being lenient with her, or because he claimed her as his own, but she was grateful.
“What will become of my soul?”
Alastor leaned his cane forward and tapped her head with it. 
“Nothing, so long as you follow my words.” 
He spun the cane around and shoved it into her face. The single eye on the microphone blinked and then spoke. 
“What do you say?”
Aelia was in shock. 
“Um…I–”
“Don't forget your stipulation,” Alastor reminded her. 
A stipulation. What could she ask for? Aelia tightened her jaw. She already got what she wanted; freedom from her tragic life.
“I just want to be with you…to stand with you.”
Alastor smiled wide. This could not have gone better in his opinion. Twirling his cane, he tucked it beneath her chin. The light around them tinted to an ethereal green. 
“Do we have a deal?”
Aelia shook her head, and then to her shock, Alastor stepped forward and pressed his lips against hers. She trembled in elation, then closed her eyes, unaware that a glowing green chain had materialized around her neck, and then faded. Her mind was much too occupied. Not able to control her urge to taste him, she tried to deepen the kiss, but Alastor pulled away.
“The bank’s closed, bèt kay (pet).”
It would be in her best interest not to do that again.
Aelia apologized in shame. She felt a bit dirty. 
Alastor took her napkin and dabbed his mouth with it, then tucked his cane beneath his arm.
“Come along, there is something I want to show you.”
Aelia stood and walked close behind Alastor as he led her through the living room to a studio of sorts. Upon further investigation, she realized that it was a broadcast booth. Was this how Alastor contacted her? 
Sitting on a plush couch, he handed her a sheet of paper, encouraging her with a wave of his hand to read it. A list of names was elegantly scribbled down, some with marks through them and some with crude nicknames. Whoever Vox was, the clout-chasing mediocre video podcast, Alastor cared little for. 
There was, however, a familiar name on the list.
“Miss Rosie is on here.” 
Alastor hummed.
“Those are the names of Overlords, powerful Demons that reside in Pentagram City. I too am one, you see.”
Was he? Aelia widened her eyes. 
“And the names that are marked out?”
“Finished off,” Alastor answered with a sinister smile. The gleam in his eyes insinuated that he had something to do with them.
But why? 
“They couldn't have been easy to kill,” Aelia stated. 
Alastor hummed, shrugging his shoulders as though it was no problem. 
“Overlords are as only strong as the number of souls they own. We make deals with the sinners who reside in Hell and in some cases, humans.” 
That was no easy feat, however. In Aelia’s case, he could not leave Hell, so he had to coax her into doing as he asked. The radio was a long shot, but due to it being an antique from his time, in addition to it belonging to him while he was alive, he was able to contact her. The turn of events surprised even him. 
A twinge of jealousy overtook Aelia. She did not understand what came over her.  
“I reckon based on your strength that I am not the first human you have made a deal with.”
Alastor narrowed his eyes. 
“You are the first, bèt kay (pet) whose soul I have not torn apart and broadcasted on my radio broadcast. But that can change, so be respectful of the rules.” 
Aelia paled. She was not aware.
“Yes sir.”
“In any case,” Alastor furthered. “There is a series of projects I am passionate about. It's time to initiate them, and the first involves you.”
Her. Aelia felt a bit uneasy. Her wings sank to the floor.
“Does it involve the names on this list?”
“Perhaps.” Alastor paused to pluck the list from her hand. “But we can sweat the details tomorrow on our outing. Now, if you will excuse me, I have a welcome back broadcast to rehearse.”
Aelia perked up. She did not want to nag him, but honestly, she did not want to leave his side either. 
“May I listen?”
Alastor widened his eyes in pride. He knew there was a reason he favored Aelia. Whether it be because she adored him or because she found his discussions tasteful, she did not dismiss him. 
“Sit, and if you value your soul, you will not make a sound.”
Aelia was ecstatic. Her wings lifted and spread as she closed her mouth and pretended to lock them. She made herself comfortable beside Alastor and watched him fondly as he prepared. 
This was something he was passionate about and she was more than eager to share this moment with him.

⚠️ TW: Religion (Christianity) and manipulation at its finest ⚠️
⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘
I'm always going to be there,
Even if you don't want me to be.
That night was more so a blur, although I remember crying in Marcus's arms. I remember him softly brushing my hair as my tears poured down. Oh… Judy, Judy, Judy.
Saying your name sounds so foreign.
Going back to school was hard without her. I kept expecting her to run up to me or for me to wake up, but… I never did. All the promises we had made over the years still roll around in my head. Her voice keeps repeating itself over and over.
Omar's hand draped over my shoulder. We were all still grieving… Vanessa was sitting at my side as well. “Have they started planning her funeral yet?” Vanessa asked as she dabbed a napkin on her lower eyelid. “Don't know… I think her parents are making it a private funeral.” Omar replied.
“Oh… I see.” Vanessa's voice wavered. I couldn't blame her, I would've wanted to attend her funeral as well. However, I don't know if I could keep my tears from spilling if I see her again.
It hasn't been a long time since Judy's death, but the talks seem to have died down. Everyone has forgotten about her. No more staring or whispering when I walk through the halls. It all must seem like yesterday's news to them.
“How could they have forgotten her so easily?” I retorted.
“Must be all the disappearance that's been happening. People have learned to move on quickly.” Omar whispered, his hand still on my shoulder.
“Disappearances?” I stop.
How come I haven't heard of any disappearances? I swear I check the news daily, it couldn't have gone over my head.
“Yeah, disappearances. I think there's been 9 in total, and the police have been undergoing numerous investigations. Must be why they dismissed Judy's case so easily.” Vanessa slumped. Her eyes stayed on her used, crumpled napkin.
“But that's not right! Judy was pressured by the fucker who sent out that video!!” “It was a suicide, that's all they needed to know.” Omar sighed.
“Why are you two dismissing this so easily!? Don't you care about Judy?! Don't you want to know who took that video!?” I stood up abruptly.
Omar's hand slipped off my shoulder, and he and Vanessa exchanged a sorrowful look.
I can't believe them.
“We do care… it's just…”
“Just WHAT Omar!? Vanessa, Judy was your friend!”
Vanessa stayed quiet. She rubbed her arm and avoided eye contact.
“I think you should go out for a breath of fresh air.”
“What!? No! I'm letting this go, I-”
“Please…”
Why did Vanessa remind me so much of Judy?
I sighed and complied.
“Okay…”
I took my bag and walked off. Even if I had my back turned, I could still feel their burning stares from behind.
₊˚⊹♡ 🚶🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️♡⊹˚₊
Maybe this is what I needed. I enjoy walking around town and seeing other people live their lives. They seem all so peaceful… It's crazy to think about the fact that there might be a killer on the loose that's causing all those disappearances. It could just as easily be a wild animal… maybe both.
I wonder why it hasn't been broadcasted on the news.
A sudden yell made me snap out of my thoughts. Not far from where I was heading was a man dressed in a white robe in front of a church. The local church was located far from the school and the park I came from. I must've been walking for some while now.
“Repent! Repent! The Lord is coming! He sees your sorrows! He sees all! Repent!”
What a nut job.
I walked closer, it seemed he was passing out Bibles and pamphlets. I walked close enough to catch his attention because in a moment his whole body turned towards me.
“Young man! Oh! The Lord has seen your cries! He listens and watches! Repent, and he'll save you from the claws of Satan!”
Alright, this man was good.
“Alright… uh… is there a sign-up sheet or-”
That made him chuckle.
“No, no son. Every Sunday come to our church, in fact, come whenever you please. Open your heart to God, and he'll save you from whatever grief and pain consumes you.”
He passed me a Bible and a pamphlet.
“Will do… uhm, my name is-”
“I know what your name is, son. The Lord has spoken to me through a dream, he told me to guide you and let you see the light.”
“Uh-huh…”
“My name is Father Pierre. If you have any questions, please, come see me.”
And with that, he turned and went back to yelling in the streets. I put the Bible in my bag and opened the pamphlet.
As I was walking back to Omar and Vanessa, reading through the pamphlet put my mind at ease.
A God who hears my cries and pleases.
A God who'll listen and save me.
I am in need of saving.
“Omar, Vanessa? I'm back.” They turned towards me with a small smile.
“Oh? Back so soon?” Vanessa smiled before noticing the pamphlet.
“What's that?” Omar shot me a glance.
“Oh, I've decided to join the church... or something. I think it'll be good for me to believe in something... have a little hope, you know?”
Vanessa and Omar looked as if they wanted to say something, but they were interrupted by a low voice speaking from behind me.
“You joined the church…?”
I turned around, and of course, it was Marcus.
“Oh, Marcus. Yeah, I have.”
Vanessa and Omar squirmed behind me, I could hear them whispering and imagine them sparing glancing between themselves and between Marcus and me.
“Christians are liars. They manipulate believers into thinking they're worshipping a God. But in reality…” He leaned in closer. “You're just worshipping them.”
“Uhm… like I said… I'm just giving it a shot.”
“You always just give it a shot,” Vanessa mumbled.
“What's that supposed-”
“Point is… I don't think it's good for you to put off all your problems on some God.” Omar interrupted.
“I'll be the judge of that.”
It was silent for a bit before Marcus spoke up.
“Who gave you these?”
I looked back at Marcus, and he was holding the pamphlet and the bible.
“How did you- … erm… It was Father Pierre… I think that's what his name was...”
Marcus, Vanessa, and Omar's faces shifted.
“I heard that he's crazy… people are conspiring that he's the one responsible for all the disappearances,” Vanessa said.
“What-”
“Not only that… he's known for being rather… touchy,” Omar added.
“How would you-”
“Not to mention, he has a past of perjury…” Marcus smiled.
“Stop it! It's my choice to make, not yours! Not too long ago, you two were so dismissive of Judy's death. Well, you two can grieve in whatever way you want! Just let me grieve my way.”
“It's not that… it's the church we have a problem with.” Vanessa advanced towards me with her hand on her chest.
Omar's eyebrows scrunched up, turning his face into a frown. He walked over to me before putting his arm around my shoulder. He turned us around and began walking away.
“Why don't you just sleep on it? It's been hard for you… well, all of us… People tend to go overboard when trying to crawl their way out of a ditch.”
“I know, Omar… but, nothing is set in stone yet. It's good to try new things.”
I stopped and so did Omar. He sighed before taking my hand in his; his thumb caressed my hand gently.
He leaned in and hugged me.
“Just be careful, okay? So many things are going on and… I'd hate for you to make a decision you'd wind up regretting later on.”
“Don't worry Omar. I'll be fine.”
“I hope so.”
He gave me one last smile before he left to go back to Vanessa.
I turned around, and my heart almost jumped out of my chest. Right across the street stood the church with Father Pierre out front. He wasn't wearing his white robe… more like a traditional priest robe. He waved at me, and I couldn't help but wave back.
He had such a gentle demeanour that I couldn't resist.
However, one thought throbbed in the back of my mind.
That church…
It moved.

hello hello, and welcome to my page, aka the place where I'll either be screaming into the void or writing about hazbin hotel to spark the happy feels! I'm not the best writer, but I hope you'll stick around to see where this goes ᡣ𐭩
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
𝓪𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓶𝓮 ⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 .𖥔˚
my name's cordelia (cory or coco, for a shorter version), and I've been on tumblr for awhile, on different accounts, but i never really actually sat down and engaged with everything. I love music (my spotify will be linked here, if you wanna see what I listen too), making ocs, the color pink, and about another hundred things!
most of the time, I don't really watch anything with the exception of hazbin hotel and a few other hand picked shows, such as carmen sandiego, h2o, and tmnt, though as of lately, hazbin hotel has been my main little fixation going on and will be the main focus of this blog, even if other things appear ^^
though, as for what's on this blog, it'll be mostly x reader fanfiction of some of my favorite characters (cough alastor cough), as well as writing about my oc, and sometimes even art made by my friends (since I don't draw personally, and if you're interested in drawing one of my ocs, feel free to show me in my ask box ^^)
I like to think I'm a very friendly person, so feel free to comment, dm, and @ me in things as you see fit ^^ I love making new friends, especially if you also like tmnt or if you simply wanna get to know me !!
Tumblr media
𝓶𝔂 𝔀𝓻𝓲𝓽𝓲𝓷𝓰 ⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 .𖥔˚
most of the time, I'll only really write smut and angst as I feel like whenever I write fluff it's drawn out and boring, but I'll still try to write it sometimes!
one of my favorite things to write is romance, so expect much of that, and sometimes I'll repeat tropes and stuff ): so if you have a specific kinda thing you wanna see/read, please ask in my ask (not my dms please) and I'll get onto it ^^
whenever I do write smut, the characters are 18+ of age, either aged up via a timeskip or later on in a series, or simply because they are already above that age, I will not write smut for characters that look underage but are 'actually many many of thousand of years old' as I find it uncomfortable to do so (that whole trope kinda weirds me out as a whole, yk? it's gross)
Tumblr media
𝓶𝔂 𝓽𝓪𝓰𝓼 ⋆.˚ ᡣ𐭩 .𖥔˚
( ᘐ੭ 🌺 xoxo chats ⁀ᘞ ⋆ ₊˚ ⊹ ) — this is the tag I use whenever I'm just randomly posting stuff, or polls, or anything that's just kinda there, yk?

Heat: Part One
Part Two
This was my first attempt at smut, so you will all get to see it now. I hope you'll like it. I originally posted it on AO3. If it is terrible, I apologize. This is also set in the same universe as "Bound to Hell" and "Going Straight to Hell", but it is NOT canon to the official multichapter fic which will be posted when it is half done. So it is the same characters, with a much more developed relationship.
Pairing: Alastor x Reader (AFAB) Lamb/Sheep Reader
Warnings: References to abuse, going into heat, no a/b/o, female anatomy, Rosie being a good friend, references to Soul Bonds, something you can ask about haha. Minors DNI. This part is not explicit, but the next is! Alastor speaks French.

Tumblr media
Alastor knew something was wrong very early on. He hadn’t been able to identify what it was specifically, but it had been unsettling. His shadow had quaked and quivered at something he couldn’t see, and his skin had felt tight. When he had left his room, the sound of crickets in the swamp fading behind him, the feeling had grown worse. It had made the Overlord not quite jumpy, but definitely uncomfortable. Then he saw the cause, stumbling from their room.
His little lamb that was slowly carving out a spot for themself in his cold, dead heart, was the cause. Their wool was disheveled, nearly matted. Their eyelids were drooping low, as if they hadn’t slept. He watched them stumble for a bit before he caught their scent. Due to their bond, and proximity, he was quite attuned to their scent. Normally, they were faintly sweet with a hint of florals, but now? All he could focus on was the deep, heady smell of them. Alastor wasn’t sure what had happened, but it was clearly drastic.
“My dear,” he called. The sound of his voice had made the little demon perk up. They whipped around, and nearly sprinted to his side. They were often enthusiastic to see him in the morning, but this was new. 
“Alastor!” Their voice was filled with joy, their eyes full of unwarranted excitement. The exhaustion that had painted their face only a moment before, was gone. Their hands wrapped around his lower arm, and they nuzzled into his side. They cooed, “I missed you.”
Alastor’s brows furrowed. How very peculiar! His little lamb never initiated contact without asking first. He didn’t mind their touch, it was rather pleasing. He enjoyed the softness of their skin, and the gentleness of their hands. They still liked to ask, though, some strange need to make him feel comfortable. (He thought it was unnecessary, he was an Overlord, and he owned their soul; if he wanted them off, they’d be off of him). Not to forget, they had ‘missed’ him? The two had been separated a handful of hours at most. What was going on?
“My dearest, are you feeling alright,” he asked, lifting their chin with his other hand. “You seem a little out of sorts.”
Their eyes wavered, and the exhaustion leeched back into them. The grasp they had on his arm tightened. “I’m sorry, Al. I feel really weird.” Their eyelids fluttered, and they released a strangled breath. “I feel like I’m burning up. Which is weird, it’s winter still.” 
Alastor could feel his smile wavering. He hadn’t heard of sinners getting fevers for anything other than strange illnesses. No one else in the hotel was sick, so how could they have contracted anything? He looked them up and down, noting the flush to their cheeks, and the sweat building up on the back of their neck. They were sick. 
“Hey, can… can demons get colds?” They asked, almost as if it was a joke. Before Alastor could muster a response, they collapsed. He deftly caught them, his surprise showing on his face. 
“Oh, dear,” he muttered to himself. Who would know about these kinds of things? Perhaps Charlie? But she was supposed to be rather busy that day. Perhaps Rosie would know! She had been in Hell for quite a long time. She was bound to know something. 
Alastor arranged his little soul-bond in his arms, and stalked back to their room. Their room was full of that smell that had thrown him off just before. It made his skin tingle, and his head feel full. He couldn’t account for it, but it wasn’t something he disliked. The discomfort came from the confusion that was growing in his breast. What a strange sensation!
Alastor wrapped them up in their blankets, hoping that perhaps getting warmer would help their fever. Before he stepped away from their bedside, he stroked their cheek with the back of his fingers. How soft their skin was! He stared down at their little face, taking in every detail. The white freckles that looked like stars against their gray skin, the way their lashes fluttered in their sleep. Their plush lips, just barely open, and the sharp teeth he knew lay behind them. His chest tightened, something aching deeply, as he looked at them. His smile tightened. Alastor decided it was time to go. 
On the way out of the hotel, he called for Husker. The cat-demon was clearly disgruntled at being called on earlier than he’d prefer, but Alastor didn’t care. 
“My little lamb seems to be sick. They’re in bed right now. If they don’t stir before noon, wake them up and make them eat something.” Alastor let the underlying threat color his words. He wouldn’t have their situation get worse just because Husker wanted to be lazy. They would eat, before he got back, and then he would help them get better. But first, he needed to know what was wrong.
“Alastor! My good friend! What brings you in on such a fine day!” Rosie’s fervor was nearly infectious, but Alastor had a mission. The feather on her hat bobbed as she tilted her head in question.
“Ah, I seem to have a problem,” Alastor replied. “Do you mind if we perhaps have a conversation in a less, public space?”
The deer-demon glanced about, as if to remind her of their location. Rosie nodded, still smiling happily. She gestured with a flick of her wrist, and led the way to the back of her store. 
When the two had finally settled into their seats, Alastor sighed. Rosie went about pouring some tea for them as he worked on his words. He conjured his microphone, idly tapping it. Something heavy weighed in his chest, and the feeling wouldn’t go away.
“Oh Alastor! You know you’re my favorite pal! Just tell me what’s on your mind. You look all twisted up!” Rosie sat back in her chair, sipping from a teacup that she held delicately. Her smile was welcoming and patient, and it soothed Alastor minutely. 
He was thankful for her breaking the silence, as it forced him to finally speak. “Do you know what might cause a sinner to get sick? Even if they have not been exposed to anything?” 
Rosie hummed to herself, a knowing look in her dark eyes. “Oh, this is about your little paramour, isn’t it?”
Alastor’s smile twitched, faintly. Of course! Rosie would be able to tell immediately. She was intelligent, and she was better at reading people than even himself. Not to mention, the two of them had been friends a long time. She could read him like an open book. 
“Yes,” he admitted. “They seem to be sick, and I don’t know what it could be. I’ve never seen nor experienced such a thing, here.” His claws tap at the armrest of the plush chair, as he props his chin up with the other hand. “They looked positively dreadful this morning! Claiming that they felt hot, despite the cold.” 
Rosie set down her teacup, letting a hand cover her smile as she laughed. “Oh dear! That is quite something.” She laughed again when Alastor let his annoyance show. “They’re a sheep, are they not?” 
Alastor nodded, not quite knowing what that aspect of his little soul-bond had to do with it. 
“And they are female, yes?” Alastor nodded again, his confusion growing. “Oh dear. You said some time ago that they had reciprocated the soul-bond, yes? And they’ve been down here for several months now.”
Rosie trailed off, as if expecting him to suddenly understand what she was implying. Alastor couldn’t think of how any of that had made them sick. Rosie picked up on how deeply confused he was, and sighed.
“My, my. You really don’t know about how demon manifestations work, beyond what pertains to yourself, do you?” Rosie waved a hand. “As you know, the form we take in death often have something to do with our life. The way we died, the way we lived, all of it contributes in one way or another. Lambs, sheep, whatever you want to call them, tended to have harder lives where they had no control. Often dealing in their bodily autonomy, or lack thereof.”
Alastor’s smile shrunk. Well of course, he had known what their life had been, but seeing that their new form was a reminder of that, each day? It made him uncomfortable. He hoped that his little lamb didn’t know why they were a lamb. 
“Yes, I see that you have connected some of the dots. They’re lambs to the slaughter, all of them in one way or another. Their forms, because it’s Hell, often come with some terrible side effects that don’t show for a while. Their stress needs to level out, and they need to feel comfortable with the demons they are frequently near.” Rosie raises her brows, waiting for him to get it, but he doesn’t. “When they’ve settled, and they’re around demons they like, or they bond, the side effects kick in. Your little lamb, is experiencing that now.”
“So, they will get sick, because they’re comfortable?” Alastor feels mildly bamboozled, as he tries to clarify.
“Alastor, no,” Rosie sighs. She rubs her forehead, carefully avoiding cutting herself with her claws. “They’re in heat.”
Alastor shifts in his seat, that uncomfortable feeling tingling in his brain again. “Heat? Like, like an animal?”
“Yes, like a ewe, Alastor. They will seem sick, for about a day, then they will be clingy with you for the next, and then it will happen.” Rosie leans back in her chair, again. Unlike Alastor, she seemed entirely comfortable with the topic of discussion. “They will have the strongest drive for sex that they will have ever experienced. Going without is said to hurt terribly, like their whole body is on fire. They’ll seek out comfort in you, or by themself. Whatever quells the urge.”
Alastor felt like he had been shot. Never in all his years, alive or dead, had he heard of such a thing occurring. How tedious! How disgusting. His nose scrunched up at the thought of having to deal with such a thing himself, but the thought of his lamb… Heat rushed down his chest and into the pit of his belly. His skin was itching. The thought of his soul-bonded needing him in such a way… Alastor could not tell himself that he disliked such an idea.
He was deeply aware of how much he had grown to care for them. When he had finally relinquished some control in their relationship, offering to tie their little string tight on his end, he knew it was cemented. Alastor had a bizarre, and new, kind of love for the sweet thing he had made a deal with. They were his, and for the first, and only time, he could say, he was also theirs. He still owned their soul, but it was different. Their relationship had shifted over time. There were no more orders, and there was no more fear. His little lamb had grown comfortable, happy even, and this ‘heat’ was the proof.
Something akin to pride ignited in his chest. Yes, they were happy with him. What a delightful thing to know for sure! 
“What should I do? I am not ready for anything of that nature, and I don’t want to risk them. They have had far too many choices taken from them,” Alastor says. His hands clasp together as he gives Rosie a moment to think. He didn’t want them forced into such an awful thing again. The realization that their experiences in life had caused this…anger was a word that barely described his feelings on the matter. He wanted to tear whatever being was in charge of such transformations into pieces. 
“They will need something, at some level. Tomorrow, bring it up to them, ask. Let them know everything you know, and give them a choice. They can try and ride it out alone, or you can be beside them. How you handle it beyond that is between the two of you.” Rosie stands, a gentle smile on her face. “You should get going, my friend. You should get back to them. You’ll want to feed them well over these two days. They’ll need the energy, no matter what happens.”
Alastor stands, thanking her, almost absentmindedly. His trip back to the hotel is spent in silent pondering. He needed to plan. He wasn’t sure if sex was something he desired for himself, but he knew, deep down, he would do it for them; he’d give them that pleasure, that joy. Alastor could also feel something possessive growing. The idea of anyone else getting to commit themselves to such a task made him grit his teeth. No, if anyone was going to touch the sheep-demon, it would be him. 
Angry flames licked at the bottom of his belly, something in his thoughts igniting them. They were his, and his alone. He would be the one to drive them to pleasure. (He ignored the memory of Richard and his deeds. None of that changed anything about what they deserved. It just meant that he needed to more carefully heed their wants and needs. He would give them the bliss that no other had). 
Alastor smiled widely when he returned to the hotel. Now he needed to sit by their side for the night, and then speak with them tomorrow. Perhaps a quick discussion with the others as well? The two of them would not be available for the next few days, and he needed to make sure they would remain undisturbed. Perhaps a different location would be ideal.
When you woke, all you could focus on was the smell of food. Alastor was a very good cook, and you knew from the lovely smell of spices, that it had to have been his food. When you finally cracked your eyes open, you were delighted to find yourself right. The demon was sitting on the edge of your bed, a steaming bowl cupped in one of his hands.
“Good morning, dearest,” he said. There was something akin to apprehension on his face, but you were far too hungry to immediately comment on it. “I figured you would be quite hungry, when you awoke, so I took the liberty of making you something hardy.”
You smiled widely in thanks. How sweet he could be to you! It was new, in your relationship, but you loved it. You held out your hands, thanking him as you did, but he didn’t hand you the bowl. Alastor merely gestured for you to sit up, and scoot back. You did so, hesitantly, your back settling against your headboard. You held out your hands again, but he settled himself close to you on the bed. With his legs swung over the side, he started spooning the stew.
“No, hey, wait a minute! I can feed myself!” You glared at him, confusion and a tinge of anger mixing together. 
Alastor sighed, affection leaking into his words. “I know, my love, but I need to tell you something quite…hmm, difficult might be the best word here. I want you to just listen, and focus on eating. Plus, I just love taking care of you.” One of his hands edges towards your face, claws softly stroking your cheek. He pulls it back, and spoons some more stew. “You can ask questions when I am done, but for now, eat.”
You grumble to yourself before opening your mouth to accept the spoon. Although you were loath to admit it, the stew tasted great, and him feeding you only felt slightly patronizing. 
“Do you recall how you felt yesterday? You said you felt like you were burning up. Well, when you fainted, I went to find out what could be the cause. I went to my good friend Rosie, you remember her?” He lets you nod before feeding you another spoonful. “I came to the conclusion that she would know enough about Hell, to know what was causing your sudden illness. 
“So I described it vaguely, and she realized I was talking about you, dearest. And she said some things that upset me, more than I had been willing to admit at the time.” Alastor sighs, static, that seemed ever present in his voice, fizzling out. The room was quiet for a moment as he let you swallow your food. “The way we manifest in Hell, has to do with the way we lived, and died. The things we experienced. I know you know some of this, but I also found out something more specific about your form.”
Alastor goes quiet, and you frown. Whatever could he have learned to cause the demon that never stops talking to go quiet? 
“Sheep demons are often the result of lives lived that had very little control over themselves or their situation. You are a sheep, because you had such little bodily autonomy in your life, my love.” He feeds you another spoonful as your eyes widen. He snorts to himself. “It made me so incredibly angry, to have that confirmed to me. It only got worse when she finally told me why that had anything to do with your illness.
“You aren’t sick. You are experiencing a ‘heat’, as she called it. It’s a side effect of being a sheep, or more specifically a female, sheep demon. It occurs when the individual has been comfortable with the demons in their vicinity and stress-free for a time. Soul-bonds can trigger this too.” 
Your brows scrunched up, and you swallowed the food before you had finished chewing. It hurt your throat, but the urge to grimace was too strong. How fucking terrible. It felt like you couldn’t escape anything from your life. Your eyes drifted to the wall. You couldn’t even make eye contact with Alastor. His gaze felt heavy on you, and all you wanted to do was hide. 
“I’m sorry, dearest. You need to know what ‘heats’ are, though. Then we can talk about what you would like to do about it.” Alastor sets the bowl down on your bedside table, taking the hint that you couldn’t eat right then. One of his hands tugs at yours, large claws wrapping around your whole hand easily. “Yesterday, the fever and the exhaustion, was the first day. The second, which is today, it’s common for the affected individual to be clingy, especially with a bonded pair.” His thumb stroked the back of your wrist, as he continued. “Tomorrow, the actual ‘heat’ occurs. You will be driven to-” 
Alastor cuts himself off with a cough, and it draws your gaze. “Sorry, my dear. I’ll continue. You will want to have sex. The desire will become a need, and it will consume you. I have been told that it can hurt, to go without, but that it is possible to handle alone. This is what I would like to talk to you about.”
Your nose twitches, and your lips quiver. Of course, this would be thrust on you. How could you deal with this? The idea of sex still unsettled you. However, he mentioned that it could be handled alone. Did he mean masturbation? Would something other than penetration work? Your thoughts whorled in your head, when one stuck to the forefront. 
The image of Alastor holding you tightly to his chest, hand cupping your navel and exploring lower, made your brain halt. The thought of his fingers rubbing at your clit, and his wonderful voice whispering in your ear. Him touching you gently, talking you through the whole ordeal, and bringing you to orgasm, lit up your mind. You suddenly wanted it more than anything. You didn’t need penetration from him, but you so desperately wanted to be touched.
Your cheeks flushed, and fluttering erupted beneath your navel. Alastor’s eyebrows raised as he took in your appearance. You were so glad that he couldn’t read your thoughts. How embarrassing, especially because he wasn’t the biggest fan of being touched.
The heat subsided as you remembered that detail. That would complicate things. The idea of being left alone, right now, made you want to cry. You hoped he didn’t want you to handle it by yourself. If all he could do was be in the same room, you would take it over being alone. 
“I know that neither of us are at the point where…sexual intercourse would be the best action. However, I don’t want you to deal with it alone. As new as this will be for me, I would like to be there for you. To help you with it, if you so desire.” Alastor leans in towards you, one of his hands cupping your face. “I would bring you pleasure, and help this ‘heat’ end for you, my love.”
Your eyelids flutter closed, letting his breath fan across your face as you think. You want him with you, badly. 
Alastor chuckles, making you look at him. “I can do that, my dear.”
Oh. You had spoken out loud. (Your brain feels like it's melting. It feels hard to think, but you push through). Your cheeks flush again. 
“Please, stay with me. I don’t want sex, but I would like your help, if you would give it to me.” Your eyes shift off of his face, shame curdling in your stomach. “I don’t know how to help myself very well, as it is. I would like to learn, with you, if I could.”
Alastor suddenly grabs both sides of your face, his own getting closer. “Look at me, my little lamb. You are deserving of such pleasures, and I would gladly help you. We can learn together, dearest. We can stop if you are ever uncomfortable, I swear it. I would never take advantage of such a situation.”
You smile at him. “Same for you, Al. If you don’t wanna touch me, or vice versa, just let me know. I can figure something out.”
Alastor’s smile softens, and his pupils expand. “Oh, love, worry not. The desire to touch you in such a way has been growing, and the thought has been stuck in my head all night.” His thumbs rub your cheeks, gentler than you had ever felt him be.
Your chest aches, and the sudden need to cry grows within you. You love this strange demon, despite everything that had happened in the last months. He was growing to be so good to you, and it made your heart hurt. 
“Can I kiss you,” you ask, your volume barely above a whisper. 
Alastor answers by molding his lips to yours. His skin is cool to the touch, but compared to the fire you were bathed in the day before, it was Heaven. One of his hands clutched the back of your head, brushing by your sensitive ears. A sound breaks free from your throat, and it makes him press into you harder. You clutch at his suit jacket, your lungs starting to burn. Before you can grow lightheaded, (although you definitely were from just kissing him, just not suffocating), he pulled back from you. 
“That was splendid, ma chéri.” His voice dips lower, his fake radio accent slipping. 
You bask in his presence, as you think over what tomorrow will entail. Although he feeds you a few more times that day, and you talk more about how you feel about it, nothing could prepare you for the full force of the ‘heat’. When he transports you to a room that you haven’t been before, you let your curiosity numb your anxiety. Worrying about it wouldn’t help you, anyway.
My asks are open! Feel free to make a request or reach out to say hi! :)

Hi, not to target you personally but I wanted to include this for all future posts: please do not format your asks like this. This is extremely annoying to add tags under. If you are including lists of tropes or ships, a simple comma (,) goes a long way.
Thanks!

1. Welcome to Hell
Tumblr media
She had never fallen for anything as hard as she fell into Hell. Free falling however many feet only to face plant into a concrete barren street is not how she imagined her day starting. Was this the start of her day? What had she been doing before this? Certainly not jumping off a building or out of a plane. She stood slowly, many loud sounds abound while she reached for her now shattered glasses, before realizing that without them, her vision was perfect. 
“What the fuck?” She blinked once, then twice, then 15 more times before she concluded that her vision was finally 20/20. Clear enough to see the crimson sky above her, all the buildings around the same shade of red. Some roads cracked and broken even more than a neglected Brooklyn neighborhood. Suddenly, the sound of an approaching car broke her out of her trance, and she jumped out of the way, barely avoiding getting hit. 
“Get the fuck outta the road ya stupid bitch!!”
Instantly her middle finger was up and she was shouting right back “Fuck you, ya decrepit piece of shit! I do what I fucking want!!!” Well, she didn’t want to be standing here in the middle of an unfamiliar street, but nobody told her what to do. She could’ve left her frames in the middle of the street where they’d landed, but without thinking she placed them in her pocket. She wasn’t going to get any answers just standing in this one spot, so she started walking. The red in the air had to be due to terrible air quality, but she could breathe just fine. 
It was a very strange adjustment, being able to see clearly without her glasses, she kept reaching to push them up on her nose, only to realize every time that they weren’t there. She didn’t know how long she’d been walking, but the sounds of a city were growing louder as she kept on in this direction. City sounds she knew well from living in the Big Apple. 
There were many others scattered around, none of them looking quite human. Some had human-looking bodies with inhuman additives and some were just straight-up nonhuman, be they animals or monsters for lack of a better term. The buildings were bright and the people were loud, adding to the TVs in windows and the cars, trucks, and buses all running concurrently. Denizens fighting and screaming, tearing up roads and buildings as she walked aimlessly in the same direction. The building lights grew brighter as the noise levels built up. Everything was so much louder than usual, she had become accustomed to complex noise, but these made their way through her ears, down her spine, and into her stomach. She didn’t have her headphones, she’d left them at home. 
She bent over and closed her eyes, trying to steady herself enough to keep walking, at least enough to get away from this noise, but she was caught in the middle of it. The last building she saw was a large tower with glass windows all around it, and the tall letters “vVv” plastered on it for all to see, before she crouched down, feeling physically sick from the commotion. 
That is until she felt arms dragging her up. Her eyes shot open, to see some beings that looked a lot like sentient hyenas dragging her away from the busy streets. Their touch was wildly uncomfortable, not only because they were strangers, but because their appendages were digging into her skin quite painfully. She tried to stand and hold her weight, but the way she was building held did not allow it. She began squirming to get loose, the restriction of her body movement and the vast amount of sound combined to make a very unpleasant experience in her body. 
“Stop squirming, you’re making this harder than it needs to be.”
She started kicking and squirming even harder, as though she was trying to escape her own body. 
“Hey! Stop moving!” Yelled another directly into her ear “Grab her legs” he spoke to another. When they went to grab her, she let out an inhuman screech, startling her would-be attackers into letting her arms go. When they attempt to recapture her, she lets out all the pressure built up in her chest, screaming at the top of her lungs. Out of her mouth came blazing flames hitting the faces of her would-be captors, screaming until she couldn’t scream anymore.
When she finally opened her eyes, the entire area was now engulfed in flames. It didn’t seem too out of place with the rest of the streets. The charred corpses of the hyenas were all around her on the ground, still flaming. She stood there and caught her breath. Once she was able to breathe steadily, she finally looked up at the sky. Standing in full sight of anyone who happened to look up, was a casino-like sign, reading “Welcome to Hell”.
______________________________________________________________
Hell? Like the place, Christians are always screaming about? This is what they were all afraid of? It looked like an ungoverned city. Broken windows, trash on fire, broken-up roads, dead bodies strewn all over the place. Falling lampposts, guts all about the streets. People killing each other all over, while she just walked right on by. There were many large buildings like skyscrapers clearly in view as if the wealthy were flaunting over the regulars. The majority of the light in the city came from these towers and buildings. Their area was cleaner and sleeker, more modern.  The class distinction was obvious. Like it wanted to be near them, but not part of them.
So if she was in Hell, were these demons? Was she a demon? Why was she in Hell? She couldn’t think of anything she had done in life that would get her sent down here. Was this even real? She knew when she was dreaming, and this felt like real life. She was still a bit in shock about the fire that came out of her mouth, but at this point, she was running on adrenaline, her legs carrying her somewhere, anywhere that wasn’t here. She starts playing with her fingers and staring at all the lights. The brightest lights surrounded a large billboard reading, “You Are Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel” with directions listed at the bottom. The words were next to a picture of what she guessed was a demon girl, with a white face, red circles on her cheek, and a long ponytail that went down her back. She cocked her head at the sight, the demoness’s face was quite striking and burned itself into her memory. 
The building was in the middle of nowhere. She had to take about 10 breaks just to get there. In front of the building was a large pentagram and the hotel itself was propped up on a hill. After 4 more breaks just to climb the hill, she reached the door. She wondered why the hotel had a marquee. She knocked once quietly, then thought for a moment and knocked again, louder. The demoness that was on the billboard was the one that opened the door.
“Awww you are so cute.” The blonde demon cooed over her appearance 
“I know right?” She brightened up at the compliment
“Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel!”
“And who are you?”
“I’m Charlie! And this is my girlfriend Vaggie!” She gestures to another woman who walks up to the door with grayish-purple skin, long hair, a bow, a large spear, and an eyepatch over her left eye. 
“Okay, so I have a question,”
“Yes?” Charlie bats her large eyes
“This is Hell? Like, I am in Hell? Like the place Bible thumpers are always telling everyone else that they’re going? Like, fire and brimstone, eternal punishment for sinners? That Hell?”
“Yes.” Charlie’s smile doesn’t falter, she looks quite pleased 
“And I am here because…?”
“Well…chances are that you’re here because you’re a sinner. Meaning you did something wrong in your life. Unless you’re a fallen angel, but I think you would know if you were.”
“Is it possible that there was some sort of mistake? Because I was awesome.” 
Charlie and Vaggie look at each other, unsure of how to answer the question. “Um I don’t think there’s ever been a mistake,” Charlie responds, unsure. She looks off to think about it.
“First things first,” Vaggie spoke sternly “Our mission is very important to us, so do you plan on staying here or not? If you are, that means that you are agreeing to do your best to be redeemed. Which includes daily lesson plans, trust exercises, interacting with other guests and staff as well as doing your part around here. Do you accept?”
She squints in confusion “Why is all that necessary?”
“Because!” Charlie piped up, back from her existential thoughts “We believe that it’s easier to make strides towards redemption when you feel like part of a community! Usually, we suggest that each new guest finds another guest that they’re similar to. Although that may be difficult for you.” She strokes her chin “I don’t think we have any other guests that are deer.”
“Wait what?” She breaks up Charlie’s thoughts “What do you mean?”
“Well, when building a community, it’s easier to start small-“
“No! I mean like…other deer? What do you mean by other deer? Who’s a deer?”
Charlie glances at her girlfriend to make sure she’s seeing the same thing as her. “Um..you are,” Vaggie informs her
She tilted her head to the side in confusion. Charlie and Vaggie looked at each other before parting to let her in the hotel. There’s a large mirror in the common room wall, she approaches and looks in it; unable to comprehend what she sees. The first thing she noticed was that her dark locks were now fiery red curls. Her nose was black and the holes were larger, her lips were two different colors; the top one black and the bottom one pink. Her face was slightly more angular, with white spots all over, and two big brown deer ears sat atop her cranium. And her irises were now a deep blood red. 
She stared at her reflection, with no sound or movement. Other guests were passing by as if she was strange. Charlie stood behind her, she could tell she was getting worried, stepping out to approach the doe, but Vaggie put an arm out to stop her. She slowly reaches up to touch her face, to make sure that what she was seeing was real. She opened her mouth to speak, seeing four fangs, two on each of the sides of her mouth. She picked at them for about 5 minutes straight. They were real too. This was all real. She was a deer, specifically, a doe. 
Vaggie cleared her throat, “Don’t forget um…on the back.”
She turned her head to see what she was referring to and shot Vaggie a confused stare. Vaggie took her by the shoulders, causing her to flinch. Vaggie retreated a bit before slowly replacing her hands on the doe’s shoulders, turning her backside towards the mirror, bringing to her attention, a tail. Brown on top, white on the bottom. She looked back towards the girlfriends. 
“It can be a big shock,” Charlie looked apologetic “but at least you’re adorable!”
She turns back to the mirror, looking at herself once more, then turning back to them. 
“Yeah, I guess I am cute.” She states bluntly
She backed herself up, hitting something hard and solid. She finds herself frozen for a moment before feeling a slight weight on either side of her. Long, slender, and sharp red fingers covered her shoulders, holding her up from falling backward. She steps forward and turns to see who they belong to. She was greeted by the sight of an extremely tall demon, with a fancy red coat, a cane with a microphone on it, and red hair with black tips, that gathered on top of his head in a similar shape as the ears she had on her head. A large grin took up the majority of his face and his bright red eyes were quite a sight to behold. She stared, unable to form words at the moment, and his grin got even wider before he spoke. 
“Alastor. Pleasure to be meeting you, sweetheart.“ he takes her in, noticing her form, ears, and face. He hadn’t seen another deer down here before. Quite interesting to say the least. He brings an arm from behind his back, takes her hand, and pulls it up to his lips, placing a kiss on the back of it. “Quite…a pleasure.”

Tell me about your WIPs!!!! You're awesome!!
😭😭😭😭😭😭
thank you, dear anon!! I'm ALWAYS happy for a chance to blabber about my WIPs, but beware, for they are plentiful, and this will probably be a semi-long post 😅 For the Hazbin WIPs, I'll leave links where available!
Hazbin Hotel WIPs:
I have two (three) Hazbin Hotel WIPs that are sooo so so dear to me. One focuses on Vox x female OC, the other on Valentino x female OC. Yes, I have a type, and so what 😔 anyway - the Vox one actually has Vox as a good guy, although he fumbles a lot with his relationship with female OC. He's VERY new to loving and healthy relationships. Vox and his lover flee to the Hazbin Hotel to seek refuge from Valentino's wrath, and he even forms a semi-sorta-kinda cordial, albeit strained, friendship with Alastor (who will ALSO have a partner!). Character development all-around, yippeeee!! Tonight I'm Saying Goodbye Valentino is the title, and it currently has two chapters up on AO3!
The Valentino x female OC WIP focuses on female OC as being new in Hell and landing in Valentino's clutches. Quickly rising in the ranks of sex work, she eventually becomes a top earning girl, "competing" with Angel Dust although they're actually really good friends. At some point, Valentino becomes so unbearably infatuated with female OC that he accuses her of working succubus magic on him. Eventually, she knocks it into his thick skull that she's not a succubus, and that if he's feeling this way about her, there must be some good fucking reason. Long story short, they become the evil power couple of hell that makes everyone cower <3 This one has the (mouthful) title of As the sun sets on your mortal life, the moon will shine on your afterlife! 3 chapters up so far on AO3!
The third Hazbin Hotel WIP focuses on Vox AND Valentino as they stalk and harass female OC in true staticmoth fashion. I haven't really written a whole lot on this one, but I can already tell I'm gonna LOVE it 😭 Since it's still very new, there's no link for it yet 😔
Original WIPs:
Hitman-inspired novel, my beloved 😭 this one is incredibly dear to me. It focuses on this female straight-A student whose only career wish is to become a hitman. She gets into a crime syndicate where she starts working as a brothel girl, and then steadily "grows" throughout the book. I'm thinking it'll be two books, at least. The first one to kinda explore her background and her relationships with everyone around her, and then the second one to focus on her as an actual assassin / hitman. Eventually, she does reach her goal, and having hitman'ed for a good decade or so, she has accumulated so much money that she can settle down with her partner and their army of dogs in the Swiss alps 🥺 It features some LGBT (bisexuality and trans people) and mental illness without outright demonising either. I'm very proud of it so far! It sits at like... 108k words 😅 just for the first book. I plan on getting this published - whether traditionally or self-published, I dunno yet.
I also have this other original WIP that's a sci-fi / romance novel idea. It features a bisexual / pansexual lady who gets gifted a state-of-the-art phone by her work. This phone has some seriously well-developed AI (think Siri from Apple, only far better), and since this leading lady is quite handy with engineering and very crafty, she fixes up a body for her phone's AI, and kinda like takes the AI and installs it into the frame? It's made of scrap and old janky robot parts, but neither of them cares, because now that AI has arms and a body, they can finally hug and kiss each other 😭 ❤️ eventually, the AI-turned-android will get upgrades. An important part of this story is the fact that android-human relationships are VERY frowned upon, and our leading lady and her android """friend""" will be the leaders in a revolution, of sorts, to make android-human relationships legal. This story will, maybe obviously, very much be a social commentary, but made to cater to me and the robotfuckers 😎 I do also plan to publish this one, at some point!
Okay I'll cut it here 😅😭
thank you so much for letting me talk about my WIPs 🥺 Writing is the passion of all time, and I could talk for HOURS about any and all of my projects

You can't.
I don't want you to
forget me...
I need you to smile when I haven't talked to you.
And I finally can.
I
Just want to be good for you
The party ended up being pretty fun! Marcus and I danced and talked about all sorts of things, pretty sure he also told me how to summon some ancient God. Omar and Vanessa joined us too, however, Marcus didn't stick around as much when they came. I also couldn't find Judy anywhere, I asked around, but many people gave me weird stares before resuming their previous activities. She most likely left early, hopefully, she got home safe.
I walked through the school doors, the air was thick with humidity and whispers. Another rumour was going around. This wasn't unusual after a weekend of partying but, somehow, it seemed as if their eyes trailed behind me. Many gave me pity glances or patted me on the back when I passed them in the hall. 
I reached Omar and Vanessa, they were huddled together at Omar's locker without Judy. They were looking intensely at Vanessa's phone. 
“Hey, guys… do you know what's going on? Also, where's Judy?”
They both exchanged glances, “I think you should see this first…” Omar said while Vanessa handed me her phone.
I took it, it was a video. I pressed play, and the video started with the camera pointing at the ground before it pointed up at the snack table. On top of the table was a girl that I recognize as none other than Judy, she drank a cup of (what I presume) alcohol before swinging her microphone around and singing drunkenly. 
She jumped off the table and started to make out with some random guy. They got down onto the floor, and she started to take off her clothes-
I stopped the video. 
“Who… who took this video?” Omar shrugged while Vanessa spoke, 
“Who cares who took the video? Your girlfriend cheated on you in front of everyone!”
“She was drunk.”
“That's not an excuse!” Vanessa continued.
I sighed heavily, “Where is she?”
“In the art room. She won't open the door to anyone.” Omar said.
“Thanks.” I turned around and ran to the art room.
God dammit. This is all my fault. I should've stayed with her.
I reached the art room and tried to open the door. 
“Judy? Are you in there? Judy, it's me! I just wanna talk, please!”
The door suddenly swung open and a hand dragged me inside, locking the door behind us.
I looked back at Judy, she was shaking. Her face was all red and blotchy, her eyelids were puffy, and her face was all swollen. Her hair stuck to her face and dragged on her shoulders; she wasn't wearing her seasonal outfits either, rather, a plain hoodie with some jeans. 
She walked to the other side of the room and sat down, bringing and hugging her knees to her chest. I joined her. 
“Judy, I understand. You were drunk, it's not your fault-”
“No, No! You don't understand! I wasn't only drunk, I was also drugged!” Her voice broke as more tears ran down her cheeks.
“What!? Are you serious?! By who??” 
“I don't remember!” She grabbed at her hair. “All I know is that whoever drugged me also took that video! Now everyone knows me as the slut of the school!” She cried, leaning onto my shoulder. 
“Don't think like that, Judy! Once we explain that you were drugged, everybody will gain a new perspective of the situation. I promise.” I wrapped an arm around her.
I pulled her into a hug. She hugged me back tightly. 
“I'm so tired of this. Over and over again.” She murmured. 
Has this happened before??
“It's always me. Again and again.”
I stopped hugging her, but she kept leaning on me. She seemed out of this world.
“Wait, Judy, has this happened before?”
“So many times that I've run out of fingers to count.”
“What? Judy, if this has happened before, we need to call the police! Hell, we should've called already!” 
I got up and reached for my phone. 
“NO! It's okay… I'll be okay…soon.”
“Judy, I don't think you're taking this as seriously as I am! This is a very scary thing-”
“I'll be fine. Soon. I'll be okay.” She said, begging me to sit back down.
I sighed, “If you're so sure.” I sat back down next to her.
“So, this has happened before?”
“No, yes, ugh! It's all so confusing!! It's all so familiar yet so different!” She pulled at her hair.
“Judy, what are you-”
“I'm so tired of this! I can't take this anymore!”
“Judy!”
She stayed silent but kept fidgeting. 
“Marcus is looking for you.” A chill went down my spine.
“What? So? This isn't about him, Judy, it's about you! Please, tell me how I can help you!”
What the hell is she talking about?? Why did she bring up Marcus like that?
She got out of my arms and stood up. I stood up with her and grabbed her hands.
“Judy, please! I don't care about Marcus-”
“Don't say that!”
“Judy!” I raised my voice, “I'm your boyfriend, for god's sake! I want you to be okay! Why do you suddenly care about what Marcus wants?? I want my old Judy back!” I started to tear up.
“Ever since Marcus came, you-” I stopped. “Ever since Marcus came to this school, you started to act differently. Judy, did Marcus do something to you? Was he the one who drugged you!?”
“No! He didn't! It was-”
“Who??”
Judy's eyes widened, and she pushed my hands away. She looked at me and then behind me.
I looked behind me as well, only to find Marcus leaning on the door frame. 
I swear that door was locked from the inside.
I scoffed, “Marcus, can't you see that we're having a private conversation? Please leave us.”
Marcus didn't budge. 
“You weren't in class, so I decided to check up on you.”
What? We don't even have the same class together in first period. 
“Okay, well, you found me. Now please leave.” I insisted, “And close the door behind you.”
Marcus looked at Judy as if he expected her to say something. 
“Leave her Marcus.” I stood in front of her while facing him.
“No, it's okay. You should go.”
“Judy, I'm not leaving you alone.”
“It's okay, I'll be okay. Soon.”
“But-”
“I'm just going to clear my head and drink some water before heading back to class. It's okay, I'll be okay. Soon.” She repeated. 
“Are you sure?” She nodded and smiled. Her cheeks were still painted with dry tears.
I walked out of the class while sparing her a second glance, just in case she changed her mind.
Marcus trailed behind me. 
“Are you going to class?” Marcus asked, jogging, so he was walking next to me.
“I don't know. Why do you care? We don't even have the same class.”
“Is it wrong to care for a friend?”
 I stopped walking. Marcus did too.
“Marcus. What did you do to Judy?”
“Nothing.” Marcus faced me.
“I don't believe you.”
“I was with you the entire time at the party, wasn't I?”
No. No, you weren't. You left when Vanessa and Omar came.
Marcus exhaled, “Believe me or not, I didn't do it.”
“Didn't do what?”
Marcus smirked.
I turned away from him.
“Listen, Marcus, I don't think-”
“Hey! Whoever is skipping class should be going to the office for a tardy skip!” A voice echoed from down the hall. 
“It's the hallway monitor-”
Marcus grabbed my hand quickly and dragged me to the cafeteria and outside the back door. Once we were outside, I snatched my hand away. 
I sat down on the stairs, Marcus sitting right next to me. 
“Rumours sure do spread fast,” Marcus said.
I buried my face into the palm of my hands. I rubbed my now dry eyes.
“Do you know who drugged her?” I turned towards him.
 He continued to look into the beyond and shrugged.
I started to cry again, I've been such a horrible boyfriend these past few days.
I felt a hand on my shoulder, pulling me closer. Marcus laid a hand on the back of my head and pulled me to his chest.
“It's okay, everything will be okay. I promise.”
He rubbed my back. I raised my head, his hand still resting at the back of my head. 
We both stared at each other in silence. It was as if I couldn't move, as if my actions were being controlled by someone else. 
He leaned in closer, I closed my eyes. 
His lips touched mine and we kissed. I brought my hand to his cheek, finally moving. 
The kiss was so heavenly, but yet… so wrong.
My eyes shot open and widened. I snapped out of my trance and pushed him off.
“Marcus, what the hell!?” He stayed silent and only licked his lips. 
“My girlfriend is inside fucking bawling her eyes out, and we're here kissing!!”
I stood up and reached for the door.
“You're too late. It's been too soon.”
“Shut up. Stop spouting nonsense.” I retorted. 
I grabbed the handle and swung the door open before running toward the art room.
I reached the colourfully painted door and knocked on it. 
Judy didn't open the door.
“Judy, it's me! I've come back!”
Judy didn't answer.
I grabbed the doorknob and turned it. It was unlocked. 
Maybe she had already left for class?
I opened the door and looked inside.
My eyes widened in horror. I screamed.
Judy had hung herself.
I gagged, she had turned blue with foam running down her mouth. Her neck was broken at an uncomfortable angle. Her eyes were the only thing that seemed peaceful. 
Someone had run beside me. 
“Hey, kid! What are you doing causing all this disruption? Aren't you supposed to be in class- Oh my god…” The hallway monitor wasted no time in grabbing his phone and calling 911.
His voice was starting to get muffled as I continued to stare at her lifeless body.
Her eyes.
They were looking straight at me.
Marcus's words repeated in my head: “You're too late. It's been too soon.”
Soon.
Soon it'd be okay.
Soon she'd be okay.
A hand pulled me back; teachers started to swarm the room, while students piled in the hall.
How long has it been?
Vanessa and Omar came to my side. Vanessa hugged me while she cried on my shoulder. Omar only stood silent. 
How long has she been suffering?
My eyes left the body and turned to the end of the hall.
How long have I been blinded?
Marcus was standing there.
How long has he waited?
I started to cry.
