Summary
Alastor doesn’t pull his hand away, in spite of how he’d very much like to.
Typically—this is a game reserved for a disgusting pig of a white man that he’s been stalking for a few weeks now, at the bare minimum. Perhaps a few months, even. He’s not certain this one qualifies yet to be on the main list, but he does tick all of the preliminary boxes. He’d make for terrible prey, though, Alastor sadly notes. A high profile white man from New York that has come down to specifically chase after him? No, no, that won’t do. He can’t kill this man. It would fall back onto him immediately.
Buuuut, he is still having a bit of fun, laying out a few honey traps here and there, for whatever reason. Just in case.

1930s Human AU. Newscastor (and CBS Executive) Vincent goes to New Orleans to scout some new talent. He gets a lot more than either of them bargain for in a particular small-time radio host.

Summary
Hell is other people. Purgatory is being a twenty something weatherman with the memories of a being a media overlord who had the entirety of Hell wrapped around his finger.
Sent back to his mortal life with a chance to "do it right this time", Vox has a problem. The Angels have installed a patch in his soul: the Pacifist Protocol. If he tries to kill a rival, poison a boss, or throw a punch, he is paralyzed by blinding agony.
He cannot claw his way to the top if he can't use his claws. He needs a loophole.

Summary
“This,” Artemis began, gesturing Nico up and down. “Is a boy, uncle.”
Hades nodded, looking incredibly out of place as a mass of darkness in the otherwise serene meadow. “He is,” he agreed and then paused, looking at Nico with a sudden suspicion. “Right-?”
“Yes,” Nico interrupted flatly. “Still a boy. Just gay.”
“I was not conflating such things,” Hades muttered. Artemis raised a skeptical brow. “I merely thought I would ask.”
From behind Artemis, Percy gave a satisfied nod as he nudged Thalia. “Nice. We got a woke uncle.” He raised his fist only for Hades to stare. “Alrighty.” He pointed a thumb behind him. “I guess I’ll go-?”
“You better not leave me here,” Nico hissed.
“Bye, Nico!”
“Percy!” he began, a note of worrying desperation leeching into his tone. This was ridiculous. It wasn’t really happening, right? Right? “Tell Will that I’m being kidnapped!”
Thalia waved. “No,” she said, following after Percy.
Nico had never liked her.
Or
Apparently, Nico is what other campers are calling ‘a hot mess’ and ‘severely traumatized’ which has somehow led to his father relegating him to the Hunt. Worry not, it makes no sense to Artemis either.

Summary
A Radiostatic story set immediately after the events of Season 2.
Having been severely humbled after his failed attempt to take over Heaven, Vox's fall from grace and drop in popularity have been devastating. Estranged from his associates, scorned by all, he's lost all the approval he'd ever managed to gain. That is, seemingly, from all but one...
Alastor, now keen to spread his newly unclipped wings, gets the devious idea to get Vox back in line where he belongs - as Alastor's subordinate, a useful tool for his future plans. After all, Vox had managed something rather impressive before all that catastrophic failure, and Alastor finds himself strangely compelled to seek his old pal out in the aftermath... only for personal gain, of course.
Or: how, despite all odds, radio can't seem to stay away from video.

Summary
Bloodclan suffers. In the aftermath of Scourge‘s unexpected defeat, the clan from twoleg-place is left without leadership. From Bloodclan‘s veteran warriors, several cats step forth, each claiming the right to lead the clan, breaking it into opposing factions in the process. Warriors that were clanmates are now at each others throats, growing hostilities, dwindling food and harsh leafbares, pushing them toward a bloody war for reunification. In this chaos, Talon tries to protect the cats in his charge, danger and stress beginning to rapidly pile up upon his shoulders.
At the same time in Thunderclan, a warrior with a broken heart and shattered confidence tries to regain what he perceives as lost, unaware that more eyes rest on him than he thought.Story starts in early Eclipse, with a few notable difference. The prophecy of the Three is going as it canonically does, but the Blood spilling Blood prophecy has yet to pass.
Most main events of the series play out mostly canonically alongside the events of this story.
The events of Graystripe's Vow are not canon for this AU.
The great journey happened like in the main series, however it turned out to be an overly long way around the same twoleg-place.Series

Bookmarker's Notes
Chapter 30.
Very long & very in-depth review/summary on my google Doc!
In short tho, this is really good and it's been a while since I've read a Warriors fic where I don't know what to expect next and that there's an original character I actually love (bc Talon is just that cool).
Also, how dare you make me sympathize with Ashfur (although his decent to madness seems pretty inevitable in this fic, but it's interesting to get inside his head anyways).
Hawkfrost is an enigma, and Scourge is as badass as ever. Very interesting plot and Bloodclan Dynamics (after Scourges fall; the split into factions, very possible war for leadership; how they immortalize Scourge via his name, to the point that I think Bloodclan may end up with an afterlife for themselves...). Anyways, if you want an intriguing read I reccomend!
