    Summary

    In all honesty, Alastor had no clue what compelled him to leave yet another gift? offering? sacrifice? at Lucifer’s door. The previous ones he had left were not there when he later checked, so at least the short fool was accepting the silent olive branch of sorts. At least, that’s what Alastor chalked it up to, since the Princess wanted them to at least be on non-property-damaging terms.

    This time, the not-gift-offering-branch is in the form of a dead duck. Lucifer liked ducks, for whatever reason, and perhaps this would suffice. He had accepted the deer Alastor had presented a couple days ago, too — a high quality sample he had specially ordered in addition to his own breakfast.

    ---
    Or: Alastor, against all reason, is not-courting Lucifer. He also, against all reason, starts to hide in his closet every night.

    Summary

    Before Alastor found himself in the pit, if someone asked him if certain ailments were possible in Hell, he would have said no. The idea of a cold or seasonal allergies existing in Hell seemed frankly ridiculous. Back when he was alive, Alastor would have laughed at the suggestion of such absurdity.

    But with every year he spent in Hell, some virus put a third of Pentagram City in bed for a week, and Alastor started sniffling as soon as evil dandelion season rolled around. Oh yes, the little everyday tortures of the surface world were definitely present in Hell, and Alastor was no exception to their ire.

    Summary

    The Mortal Realm and Infernal Realm exist alongside one another and it's a well known fact. Mortals have taken advantage of this by allowing demons to emigrate only through work-release programs with trained summoners - requiring a period of indentured servitude before they become full citizens, conditions dependent on the bargains they enter into. Some demons are clever enough to swindle their summoners into easy contracts, and Alastor thought he was just such a demon.

    Roo was more cunning than he gave her credit for, however. Her contract was indefinite and could only be broken if Alastor could speak and mean three little words: "I love you".

    There's only one problem with that - Everyone knows that demons don't have hearts.

    Summary

    As much as Alastor had tried to forget that unpleasant summer, Lucifer would still come to mind over the years — a pitiful boy who wouldn't know a good thing if it was neatly placed right in front of him.

    There's no trace of that boy now.

    In his place is a man with cornsilk hair who wears his age like a vintage wine.

    Who cannot, for a moment, take his eyes off Alastor.

    A king whose eyes crinkle at the corners when he graces Alastor with the most bewitching smile.
