Summary
The word ‘immortal’ had some common misconceptions about it, sometimes confused with ‘eternal’ or ‘invincible’.
No, that’s not how it was.
Foolish knew that better than almost anyone.
Warnings: PTSD, flashbacks, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, implied past suicide attempts, death mentions, war mentions (ww2 and bombs and stuff mostly), amnesia, self-deprecation, loss, angst
featuring: probably mistakes in the historical timeline, probably mistakes in the timeline of technology evolution, probably mistakes in a lot of things but ITS ABOUT THE VIBES OKAY

I still think about how much I loved this fic a year later. I'm not usually one to read something less than 50k words, but man am I glad that I did. It's just such an angsty fic with a lovely ending. The story is also so creative and agggHhH

Summary
A new cult age had dawned under the illustrious Father in the year 2XXX. Vox, the favoured heir, had fought tooth and nail to be given an opportunity to prove his worth—to spread Father’s gospel and bring Paradise to those in need of it. Finally given the chance, Vox embarked on a journey spanning over a century, from 1910 to 2010—with regular check-ins, of course.
Despite the wonders and faces of each time period, Vox couldn’t help but to feel drawn back to the 1920s, where the voice of a local radio host from New Orleans had caught his ear.

Probably the most unique concept for a Hazbin Hotel fic I've ever seen. Only ch 1 is up, but I'm already hooked on the story and am in love with Adelaide.

Summary
Something terrible happened to Alastor in his human life and when he wakes up in Hell, he finds himself as prey for the vicious sinners around him. Desperate, he makes a deal he comes to regret.
Vox is fascinated by the deadly, untouchable Radio Demon and somehow manages to charm the man who initially wanted his head. They strike up a friendship that leads to some fluttery feelings on both ends, but before anything can develop, Alastor's deal (and a certain moth-demon) cause complications.
Misunderstandings and broken hearts ensue, and a blossoming romance sours into something messy and hateful.
And then Alastor disappears for 7 years. When he returns, his fight with Adam leaves him wounded and vulnerable, and Vox decides that it's time to put an end to the man who destroyed both his heart and his afterlife.
But his complicated feelings for Alastor won't let him end his life and it turns out that they miss each other more than either of them realised. Can they salvage the ashes of their relationship, or will Valentino and questionable deals destroy them both?

The beginning was super cute and I adore Vox's characterization and personality in this fic. After that, the miscommunication and angst are real with this one. I highly recommend so far.

Summary
Some say that love can conquer all, even in Hell.
Vox begged to differ, and he was damn well sure Alastor did too—or at least he would be, if Alastor hadn’t become one big question mark.

Hands down favorite writing in all of my ao3 days. Plot is somewhat unpredictable which I greatly appreciate. The writing and art are absolutely gorgeous and I want to eat them both.
