Doodles for the Swap AU on @hazbinhazbinhazbinreblog's blog
Charlie is the Overlord of Hell itself
Alastor is still the Radio Demon and is an Overlord, but he doesn't really exert his power like he had to in the past
I wanted to experiment with Alastor's hair since canonically he's supposed to be mixed
More info about the drawings under the cut
Charlie & Alastor are swapped
Charlie has major mommy issues. You know that one post that's like "mommy issues make you a sociopath"? That's Charlie but multiplied by 10. She looks more like Lilith in this AU because I think it adds to that.
She does genuinely still believe in redemption, but part of it is because she knows it will piss her mom off.
Speaking of her parents, Charlie has a better relationship with her dad in this au
She wants everyone to get along, but has no qualms about using force when it comes down to it
However she does need Alastor's help with something that she hasn't said yet so she's trying to get close to him to get his help
She's also trying to drive a wedge between him and Vox for that same reason
Rosie & Niffty are swapped
Rosie isn't the maid, but she's the concierge and sometimes she uses her free time to clean the rooms
She's still the head of Cannibal Colony, but I don't think she's an Overlord in this au (unless someone says otherwise)
Best friends with Alastor
Vaggie & Vox are swapped
Vox isn't a fallen angel, but he is a fallen Overlord
He hasn't told Alastor yet since the reason he gave up his Overlord status was because he fell in love with Alastor after he planned to kill him
Alastor thinks Vox is just a regular sinner and has no idea Vox was going to kill him at first
They've been dating for a while
Vox is super cynical and is a grouch most of the time but he does love Alastor and wants to help him with the hotel
Alastor knows redemption is possible because he's seen it happen before when his mom ascended
He's pushing for redemption because he wants to see her again and because he doesn't like how heaven seems to be running things
His personality change is because his mom was with him for a few decades in Hell until she was redeemed
Alastor didn't meet Vox until after his mom was sent to heaven
Vox is super protective of Alastor
Alastor's territory is where the hotel is

Radio Guard!Vox: What are you smiling at?
Swap!Vox: Oh, Rosie sent me a picture of her new tea set. She wants me and Al to come over for some tea later.

Secretly Married!Vox: Wait. You guys are on good terms with your Rosie?
Dadstaticradio!Vox: Why wouldn't we be?
Swap!Vox: …wait a minute, are you guys not on good terms with her?
Other Voxes: [awkward silence]

This is what I thought of when I read that

The AU you have where Vox is the vintage one and Alastor the modern one has been living in my head rent free. I can’t stop thinking about Vox being all bouncy and cartoony (definitely like you said, Roger Rabbit) and having very cartoon-esque physics and power base. Or Alastor still being radio but very much modern and staying ahead of the game. If you are willing and have any time to indulge me, I would love love love to hear more about your AU!!!
Hey! I'm happy you like this AU. I wish I had more time to explore or write a proper story for it since I have too many ideas for it. For this AU, Vox can upgrade himself to how he normally appears in the show but he honestly prefers staying like a cartoon demon since he thinks he is more powerful in that form. Like breaking the 4th wall and using cartoon logic to mess up hell's landscape/ other demons. When he does switch TV heads, because his retro TV got busted or needs to try a different attack, his powers will changed based on the type of media or how advanced the technology is. I keep thinking he secretly doesn't want Alastor to see him differently than his normal retro look since Vox knows how the Radio demon feels about technology. Since it sort of like a swap AU, Vox has two thralls, Valentino and Velvette instead of forming an alliance with them. He tricked Val into signing a contract with him when the moth demon was struggling with his porn studio or had problems with the shark mafia. While Velvette tried to confront Alastor and Vox to be the new overlord media but lost against Vox. He kept her around since she seemed useful and would call on her more than Val when it came to promoting his or Alastor's broadcasts. Vox still lets his thralls try to make their own business but constantly demands their assistance for random dangerous schemes. If the Vees oppose or try to avoid Vox, then he will control them like puppets with his inky cable wires. The Vees are up to date with hells society even using advanced technology thanks to Alastor, but because they are under contract their appearance remains the way they arrived to hell? Or like vintage animation style? Like Val’s appearance has 70s archie animation/comic style while Velvet's is more 80s lolita anime (kinda like Perfect Blue).  Meanwhile, Alastor still befriends Rosie who also has to catch up with the time. He often promotes her business since Rosie's cannibal town has become more like a meat/food factory. Rosie often repurposes any meat, scales, teeth, and angel feathers/blood to sell at her cannibal markets.
Husker stays as an overlord but owes a favor to the Media Overlords, and often plays host to them whenever they visit his casino. I was gonna make Niffty an overlord too but I haven't decided what type she would be or just be Alastor's assistant.
I kind of want Vox to help the Hazbin Hotel and Charlie (if I don't change her and the other hazbin residents roles too much). He wants to help the hotel because Vox's end game would be controlling them. Alastor only offers to help the hotel when Vox asks him to otherwise he doesn't bother to interact with the other residents or with Charlie since he has a podcast to run.
As for Vox and Alastor's relationship, they can be very professional in front of strangers/public while with associates/friends they get a little affectionate. They are on guard constantly and only trust each other since they are media demons. In private, they are very vulnerable and give each other a lot of aftercare. Or try to have a few mental breaks from upholding an image to the public. Like Vox has a whole-ass aftercare routine when Alastor is stressed and doesn't want to listen to demons due to his radio abilities. He even mutes himself and plays silent films while Alastor hides under a blanket with noise-cancelling headphones on. And when Vox destroys or needs to repair his TV head, Alastor always makes sure to have spare parts and tools on hand to assist him. He is used to repairing Vox and acting like a doctor for him.
They have been together for so long in hell, they lose their shit if the other overlord gets hurt or someone tries to take them away since in their eyes no one else compares.
And that's all I have folks!

Staticradio but they’re winners up in heaven, and have been best friends for decades.
Staticradio but Vox’s revolutionary ideas for entertainment (along with his newfound business partners) have their lives in danger because the upper council will likely not allow anything of what Vox preaches of, freedom that could be taken as rebellion against safe rules.
So Alastor tries his best to convince his dear friend to step down and think about the consequences, and the terrible possibility of falling, though Vox attempts to reassure him he’s fine, the other angel doesn’t believe that.
In an effort to find a sponsor for his ideas, to make them more widely known, he persuades Charlie, the head exorcist. Alastor, her mentor, can clearly see the problems and how the girl could get blamed because of her (partially) good nature: the angel warns the dreamer that if he were to keep having the girl be involved, that the deer would take action.
And a fight commenced between the two, both very powerful and harming each other with each blow, fighting for different priorities: although Vox was strong, his dearest friend and opponent won over him. They hadn’t spoken since then.
Guilt and shame afflicted the winner, and he would anxiosly stand outside the other's door, too hesitant to knock and speak upon the messy dispute that had taken place: neither of them wanted to hurt a friend, but his duty to protect his mentee went above that.
Days felt like months, years felt like centuries, and his worry grew without hearing from any of the three entrepeneurs, he had asked anyone that knew of them, but the answers were always negative.
When Alastor received the news from the council that his best friend (and business partners) had indeed fallen, he could barely keep it together.
His façade of absolute calmness could have slipped at any moment, and he couldn’t do anything about it. Vox had been cast down in Hell and he couldn’t do anything, he just stood there. Shameful, selfish, heartless, but he had warned him so many times, should he have done more than just words?
Of course, he should have done something. But he was too scared, frightened like the deer he had been mistaken for after running away from certain death: a cowardly decision, to stand back and hope for the best.
Now, he could never forgive himself.

Mine
Canon Vox drags himself to an empty room. There are several empty rooms in this place.
This one is just the one that has the least light in it. Vox needs the shadows right now. He doesn't want to be seen. He wants to disappear. He wants to be forgotten. He…wants to say sorry to Radio Guard Vox. What he said wasn't great at all. How could he do that? How could he suggest that his other self purposefully leave his Alastor to die, and say that he'd deserve it?
Vox curls up in the fetal position and puts himself into sleep mode. He lets his thoughts run free as he stays there waiting to snap back to reality or for someone to come and find him, whichever comes first.
He doesn't know how long he stays there, but his limbs start to lock up and the fuzziness in his head grows stronger. He closes his eyes. Thoughts of his other selves are crystal clear in his mind. He remembers the smiles they had, the adoration in their eyes, and the genuine care for their Alastors.
Those memories are nice. They're a good distraction. Distraction enough that Vox nearly misses how inside the room, the static starts to rise at an alarming rate. He doesn't notice at first but after several minutes something shifts.
The presence of it is obvious to anyone, even if they aren't attuned to radio waves. 
The static in the room is enough that it messes with Vox's own signal. Another signal enters the room. It's a bright red, and forcefully knocks against his.
Something in the signal compels him to snap out of his trance.
Vox freezes as the radio waves surround him ominously. He opens his eyes and is greeted with a pair of red-tipped boots with gold accents. He follows the boots up to see a red and black uniform adorned with white and gold. Eventually, he reaches the figure's face.
Oh no.
Radio Guard Alastor stands in front of him, his smile wide. It is not a friendly smile. The sparse amount of light in the room manages to catch on his teeth and make them shine dangerously. The shadows in the room flit towards this Alastor as he observes Vox. He grips his microphone tight and taps it slowly against the palm of his other hand.
Vox flinches back as Radio Guard Alastor leans down to look him in the eye.
"What," he snarls, "did you say to my Vox?"
Tumblr media
Radio Guard Vox looks around the break room.
All the other couples are busy talking with each other and mingling.
His gaze slides over to Canon Alastor, who sits near the corner, warily eying anyone who comes too close to him.
Vox wonders where his own Canon version is.
Since running off after attacking him, Vox hasn't heard from the other for hours now.
He spoke to his own Alastor after running away and crying his eyes out, sobbing about how much he hated his Canon and that he wished he could just shut off permanently sometimes. He didn't say anything about what Canon told him, feeling like it was important to keep it between himself and his other versions.
Alastor had said nothing during his breakdown, instead hugging him tightly in response before leaving him with the others and walking off to do something.
Vox hopes he isn't getting into any trouble. They really can't afford that right now.
He sighs and starts to stand up. He might as well get some food and try to talk to one of the others. He starts to approach Swap—
All of the Alastors freeze. They stop in the middle of talking, moving, doing whatever they're doing. All of them except for Canon Alastor, who simply freezes and averts his eyes from looking at any of them.
It's silent in the room.
The Alastors slowly turn their heads in one direction: the far wall. Simultaneously, they hold out an arm, as if to protect their partners. They all seem nervous. Almost like they sense something that will put them all in danger. The shadows in the room dance to and fro, and the oppressive feeling of static makes itself known.
Vox blinks. This…this isn't normal.
Something is wrong.
An eruption of static reaches everyone the next second, and all copies of Alastor move.
Vox gets tugged to the side by a stray tentacle just as the wall explodes.
Tumblr media
Canon Vox has no time to scream as Radio Guard Alastor snags him by the collar and flings him through a wall.
Pain. All he can register is pain, and the feeling of something inside him snapping.
Other radio signals in the room tell him that he's ended up in the break room with the others.
He scrambles to haul himself into a kneeling position and looks up to see everyone else except his own Alastor looking at him with worry.
Another explosion rocks the area and sends everybody tripping to the ground. A cloud of dust rises, obscuring everything. Vox ducks his head to avoid the chance of his screen being hit.
It's quiet except for the noise of footsteps making their way towards the room.
Vox trembles.
No. No, please. I'm sorry.
Radio Guard Alastor emerges from the cloud of dust. His expression is slack, unsmiling, and utterly blank except for the rage in his eyes. 
There is nothing but pure rage emanating from him.
His gaze lands on Canon Vox, who's pushing himself up with one arm. He doesn't see how Radio Guard's upper lip curls back as he snarls.
The other Alastors, sans Canon, follow his line of sight and blanch as they come to the same conclusion.
Radio Guard Alastor lunges forward towards Canon Vox, the air whistling behind him as he moves at full speed, and the other Alastors follow.
Swap reaches Vox first and teleports the both of them away a split second before Radio Guard appears where they were and slams a magic-enhanced fist into the ground, causing an earthquake and leaving a sizable crater.
Swap emerges from Radio Guard Vox's shadow, his arms tight around Canon Vox as they're flung out of the in-between and sent rolling on the ground. It seems this Alastor isn't as accustomed to quick shadow travel as his Alastor is. Swap Alastor pushes Canon Vox towards him with a look of desperation. “Keep him safe!” Swap Alastor pleads, before he turns back and rejoins the others.
Radio Guard Vox wastes no time and drags his Canon self behind an overturned table before peeking out to watch the fight against Radio Guard Alastor.
Secretly Married leaps forward to try and snag him in a chokehold but Radio Guard tilts his head and grabs his arm just as it flies past his ear and throws him over his shoulder. Secretly Married cries out as he's slammed down on the ground and the breath is knocked out of him. Dadstaticradio dashes in using his staff to try and bludgeon Radio Guard, who merely dodges backward with each swing. He barely even looks at the other.
Undeterred, Dadstaticradio manifests tentacles on the ground, hoping to trip up his opponent.
Radio Guard side steps each appendage and clamps his hands onto Dadstaticradio’s wrist as he flings him to the side, earning a cry of pain from the other. Swap moves in swiftly, trying to distract Radio Guard as Secretly Married leaps with his arms outstretched to grab his neck. Radio Guard dodges them both and flies up into the air before dropping down feet first towards the two of them. They rush out of the way, and Secretly Married springs away again as Radio Guard moves towards him, claws outstretched.
Secretly Married ducks and uses Radio Guard's momentum to grab his arm and fling him into the wall.
He goes down.
Canon Alastor appears on top of him first, grabbing his hair and slamming his face into the ground as he kneels on his back. Immediately, the other three Alastors rush to pin his limbs down before he can throw Canon off.
Tumblr media
It's futile.
Radio Guard lets out a screech and flings them all off with one move.
The four Alastors hit the ground at various angles, and Radio Guard snaps his head around to glare at them as they cry out in pain. He takes one step towards Swap, who stares up at him fearfully, but a blast of bright blue electricity to his head makes him pause and turn to find who dared attack him.
Swap Vox is standing, gauntlets aimed at Radio Guard Alastor. He charges up another blast and glares at the alternate version of his boyfriend. “Step. Away. From him.”
Radio Guard Alastor visibly hesitates, obviously conflicted at the thought of attacking another Vox who isn't Canon. His split-second pause costs him.
Secretly Married and Dadstaticradio Vox take the chance to wrap cables and wires around him in quick succession and wrench him to his knees. Swap Vox fires another shot at Radio Guard Alastor again, hitting his head as Radio Guard yanks at the cables. Radio Guard Alastor bares his teeth furiously and covers himself with shadows before melting away.
It's quiet in the room.
The shadows twist and explode outward, pulling the Voxes in before throwing them back outwards towards their partners. The darkness convulses and forms a shape, but instead of Radio Guard standing there in his normal form, it's his demon form: a hulking figure, with skin being stretched over elongated limbs to the point of splitting open and revealing bones underneath. The glowing stitches that run over his body strain with the force of holding his flesh together. His eyes shine blood red as his pupils turn to radio dials and flick back and forth inside a white deer skull that replaces his head. His bones crack as his legs morph into proper deer legs, and his rack grows into a pair of antlers with sharpened tips. Shadowy tendrils curl around him like an old friend as he stands up to his full height. His lips curl back, revealing a set of sharp teeth.
The snarl that Radio Guard Alastor lets out has an undercurrent of broken radio noises and shrieking sirens.
He sets his sights on Canon Vox and charges.
Everybody moves in quick succession.
The other Alastors—except for Canon—shift too and try to hold him back.
The other Voxes loop wires around him and send thousands of amps of current.
It's all in vain.
Radio Guard Alastor shrugs off every attack like it's nothing. He ducks under every swing and tosses each new fighter off without breaking a sweat. He grabs each tentacle and cable trying to ensnare him and flings them all aside. Eventually, he knocks every last demon into the walls before he shrieks loudly and bats away the table hiding Canon Vox. He lunges and catches Canon with his antlers and throws him into the middle of the room, deftly avoiding hitting any part of Radio Guard Vox.
Radio Guard Alastor rushes towards his target.
Canon Alastor meets him in the middle with one last desperate attempt to hold him off. His claws against his Radio Guard's antlers as the two grapple for dominance. Canon summons a mass of tentacles that spring out from the ground as they capture the other deer's legs in a vice grip.
Radio Guard stares up at him, before his mouth curves into a smile. He laughs amusedly, “I'll be borrowing these, thanks.”
Canon Alastor's tentacles shake before they start to loosen from Radio Guard's legs and shoot towards Canon instead. They rip Canon away from Radio Guard and pin him against the wall, several feet off the ground. Canon Alastor cries out as they dig into his flesh and wrap around his throat. Canon Vox watches the scene with a heavy heart before slowly turning and looking up once again to meet the stare of a different Alastor with no reservations about mercy and only one goal in mind. Everybody else is too far away and too battered up to move quickly enough to help him.
He's done for.
Vox takes a deep breath and accepts his fate.
Radio Guard Alastor moves one step forward. Then another. And finally—
“Wait!” Radio Guard Vox rushes in between the two, shocking his Alastor out of his blind rage. “Alastor, wait! Please!”
Radio Guard Alastor snorts furiously, his gaze darting between the two Voxes.
“Alastor, I'm begging you. Don't kill him,” Radio Guard Vox pleads.
His Alastor rears his head back, confused. “Vox? You—”
“Alastor, please.”
Vox watches as his alternate self stares down the angry deer demon.
Things are still for a while, but then, slowly, Radio Guard Alastor starts the shift back to his normal form. He looks no worse for wear if one ignores his singed hair and ruffled clothes.
The static in the room recedes, and so do any stray tentacles. Canon Alastor drops to the ground, gasping for air.
Someone rushes to help him up.
Radio Guard Alastor shifts his gaze to Canon Vox.
“Please, Al, drop it,” Radio Guard Vox begs again.
Canon Vox flinches as Radio Guard Alastor looks away from him and says to his own Vox, “He hurt you. I can't let that slide.”
“I know, I know. He's an asshole. But I don't want you to be the final judgment for another world's version of me.”
Radio Guard Alastor hesitates. “Still…”
Canon Alastor takes that moment to step in. Despite the bruises decorating his neck and the blood dripping down his limbs, he remains his chipper self. “If I may? I'd like to be the one to deal with my Vox.”
Vox feels a flutter in his chest at his Alastor's words. He knows they don't mean anything coming from him, but he can't help it.
Radio Guard Alastor narrows his eyes and stares at his alternate with an indiscernible expression, looking for something.
Canon Alastor meets his glare head-on, though Vox notices how he tightens his grip on his microphone minutely. "I told you. This Vox is mine."
Radio Guard seems to find what he's looking for at that statement. He nods his head. “Alright. If that's what you want.” He then turns to face Canon Vox. “I’m not going to apologize to you.  But I won't attack you anymore. Don't ever do what you did again. Remember that.”
Radio Guard Vox tugs on his arm and leads his Alastor away, shooting Canon Vox an apologetic look as they leave the room. The others gingerly pick themselves up and also exit the room to recuperate. Vox watches the couples hold on to each other and murmur words of concern and care as they leave. Finally, there is no one else left in the room except for him…and…
“Vox.”
Vox looks up at his Alastor, whose smile is wavering. He glances down and meets his gaze.
“Don't make me do that again,” Alastor says quietly, as he takes Vox’s hand and pulls him up. “I trust you know that you can't go around mouthing off to just anybody.”
Vox stares at both of their hands for a moment before looking up to meet his Alastor's gaze.
Alastor flashes him a sharp smile. “I don't like you, Vox. But I do know one thing: nobody else is allowed to do anything to you other than me. Do you know why?”
He chuckles and lifts their interlaced hands so they're in view.
Vox feels his heartbeat quicken.
“You're mine.”

Hazbin Swap AU
-Vox and Velvette are the ones helping the Hotel instead of Alastor. -Nifty works for Velvette and Husk still works for Al, but helps at the hotel at Al's request as a means of being a spy, but Husk tries to not betray the hotel as much as he can. Only Angel Dust knows about it but, given his own circumstances at the time, understands that the situation is messy and Husk can only do what he can. -Al and Rosie replace the V's role but in Cannibal Town. -Valentino fucking dies during the final battle because he tries to drag Angel away from the hotel right before the attack cause he doesn't want to risk losing his favorite toy and is fed up with him resisting, only to get into a scuff with Adam, killing him the process, setting Angel free of his contract. He's currently staying at the hotel full-time and taking an extended break from sex work now that he's no longer under contract. Charlie's doing what she can to support him and his recovery process. (I hate Val too much to even consider rewriting his character I just want him out of the narrative entirely, plus it allows for further exploration and development of Angel's character). -The one-sided Staticradio rivalry is still very much alive and well, though Vox has a bit more influence as the "Video that killed the Radio star" (due to his medium pretty much completely replacing radio in hell, with Cannibal Town being the exception since everyone there is old-school) and is closer to being on-par with Al (though not quite. Al still has a powercreep on him) -Vox only agreed to help Charlie with her hotel because Vox wanted to have more political power by gaining favor from the Morningstars, while also using the hotel as a means of promoting himself more (creating a reality show of sinners trying and failing to be redeemed? Good television indeed!). -Velvette agreed by proxy of Vox (the two act like siblings to me change my mind) and also for promotional purposes. She often holds fashion shows at/near the hotel cause ✨branding✨ . And because she can't trust Vox with decorating the lobby.

More doodles for the swap au
Vox does not trust this Charlie. He's willing to point a weapon at her even if he knows she'll destroy him without a second thought if she wanted to.
Alastor would definitely sing Happy Day in Hell
Remember Azula's breakdown from ATLA? That's what Charlie's breakdown at the end of the season is like but with added demonic powers and mommy issues. A good deal of her trauma is tied to her mother and the fact that they look really similar, especially their hair.
