    Summary

    Alastor's injured.
    Lucifer's broken.
    And Charlie is the only thing keeping them civil... until she's not.

    ---

    “Now, now,” Alastor admonishes. “As fun as this little dance is, you haven’t answered my question!”

    “You have no right—”

    “And you do?” A laugh track rips through the air, and he leans forward. “You’re a pathetic little man, well beyond his time, riding his daughter's coattails.”

    Lucifer can feel his claws digging into his palms as a stuttered growl rips from his throat, but Alastor continues.

    “You couldn’t even be bothered to stand beside Charlie in the war you caused until it served you to do so.”

    He advances on Lucifer. Antlers snapping and elongating. Everything around them reeks of iron and rot. It rolls off of Alastor as power ripples through him.

    “Quite the PR move, I must say. It's done wonders for your public image, showing up just in time to save the day. But I’ve been here from the beginning!” Alastor spits. “I listened to her dreams. I defended this hotel. And I stood between Charlie and that disgusting excuse of a man well before you decided to show up. I may have underestimated that ingrate, but at least I was here. What's your excuse?”

    Summary

    “And what price did you have in mind for…‘indulging in my curiosity’, exactly?”

    “Oh, no price at all! I did have a game in mind, however. Nothing nefarious and it gets us something we both want. You? Answers. Me? Entertainment!”

    “Alright. What are the terms of the game?”

    Summary

    He trusts Alastor. To a degree. It fluctuates, that degree.

    It’s been on an upward trend despite his best intentions. He's opening his shriveled, disused heart to a common sinner and he’s—he’s surprised by how naturally it comes.

    In which Lucifer and Alastor play a very long, very atypical game of twenty questions.

    Summary

    Alastor has been the conductor of the orchestra for years, youngest ever to hold the position, thank you kindly. When the Board pushes for an open audition, he was prepared for the tone-deaf clout chasers to waste his time.
    He was not prepared for Lucifer, the man who ruined his mid-morning coffee run, to reignite the fire in his heart that once drove him to compose. He was not expecting the return of the muse he lost years ago to be accompanied by violin concertos and dazzling sapphire eyes.

    And Lucifer? He just needed to get out of his newly-leased divorcee pad and figured the old violin he found amidst the boxed up ruins of his marriage was better than pickleball.

    AKA

    Lucifer makes a deal with Alastor; an audition for a phone number. As in all things, they make a royal mess of it from there.

    Summary

    When Alastor's magic randomly manifests something cruel to see again, he turns to the only thing that'll numb the pain: alcohol. Whether that works out for him remains to be seen, from his eyes and Lucifer's.
