Description:

Weak after Charlie’s birth, Lucifer has no choice but to flee Hell when Adam brings an army of Exterminators and Heavenly Princes to Hell’s doorstep. With Lilith dead, Hell in shambles, and Lucifer in no position to right it, he flees to the only place he can think of: Earth.

The human world is much different than he remembers, however, and his plan to simply keep himself and Charlie secluded in the first human city he lands in hits a snag when the woman from next door takes an interest in them and the strange radio show that, for months, has been Lucifer’s only mode of lulling his daughter to sleep, bringing her mysterious son into Lucifer's false life and threatening to bring the whole facade crashing down.

AKA the AU where Lucifer, pretending to be human, tries to raise Charlie alone in 1920s New Orleans, and Alastor, also pretending to be something he's not, falls into their orbit.

Notes:

The first fic, I Hold the Horror's Hand, was written and released as part of the 2025 RadioApple Big Bang.

The second fic, The Devil Down Below, will be out once I finish writing it.

There may be intermittent one-shots released from the POVs of different characters (Lotte, Alastor, etc), so stay tuned!

This series has a playlist, which I used as mood music to write: What Stalks the Night
