Summary
In the aftermath of the Final Extermination, Lucifer attempts to settle into the Hazbin Hotel and his place in Charlie's life, helping her as much as he possibly can, while simultaneously managing what he hopes to be the tail end of his most recent decade long depressive episode.
He should probably be a bit more worried that the Radio Demon manages to bear witness to just about every single one of his panic attacks. At least Alastor doesn't seem to glean any entertainment from kicking him while he is already down. Which really, if you think about it, is surprisingly considerate of him...
And on top of all of that stuff just. Keeps. Happening.

Summary
What should Alastor do with the revelation that Charlie was capable of soul magic? He could teach her. He could show her how to reach out with her power and have dominion over the souls of others. Of course, she would never use that knowledge for subjugation. That wasn't her way. She would, however, be very willing to break deals. Therein was both the appeal and the rub. His own deal weighed heavy on his soul. The power of it was a writhing thing, barbed, biting into him when he paid it the slightest attention. He could be free of it at the potential cost of all the souls he owned. Of every owned soul in Hell.

An exploration of a low-empathy person choosing to value connection and the intrigue of deals with the power to change the foundations of Hell.

Summary
He was flesh and bone, and Alastor never remembered that until Lucifer — touched him. Pushed his hand away, brushed their shoulders together, nudged his side before making some ridiculous joke. Every time, the realisation came anew, and refused to stick.
In which Alastor begrudgingly explores his relationship with touch, intimacy (in all its forms), and Lucifer (also in all his forms).

Summary
Vox liked to touch. Alastor did not.
Vox is out of the picture now, but a week spent in his unfortunate company brought back years worth of memories Alastor would rather forget.
Lucifer is not Vox.
Maybe... maybe Alastor doesn't hate touch as much as he thought he did.

Summary
It begins with a single message.
Or: that series where Lucifer flirts with Alastor via text message. And thirst traps.
