it's not murder, it's research and waste disposal by mangotangerine

Summary
Vox is well-loved and respected in his community, which is great for getting away with unethical and highly illegal scientific research for personal gratification via human experimentation, but it's getting boring. So when he's offered relocation from the Midwest to New Orleans, he takes the opportunity to integrate himself into a new place, to insulate himself as he establishes hunting grounds outside his new community.
He's not expecting to meet the meanest man he's ever met in his entire life, one who absolutely despises him. Vox immediately falls in love and makes things worse by pulling pigtails to get attention. Nothing works to change the dynamic, until Alastor finds Vox trying to dispose of a dead body deep in the bayou and stays around instead of running away. They bond over their mutual interest.
They bond quite a bit over it.
There's a ton of bonding, really. And some plot and killing, but it's a lot of sex—I mean bonding—and sociopaths falling in love.

Summary
Husk heads back to the city he'd told himself he'd never return to for a job and finds himself back in his old stomping grounds, driven by a sick sense of nostalgia. He wanders into one of the dingy clubs on the bad end of the Strip, curious despite his better judgment, and gets a little taste of Heaven in the form of a pretty boy on a dimly-lit stage.
Is he really going to become one of those stereotypes, a sad-sack washed-up loser falling in love with a stripper? Or is there something more to the divine creature he'd been lucky enough to glimpse on that stage?

it’s not murder, it’s intimidation and data tampering by mangotangerine for Baubles_n_Bones
Fandoms: Hazbin Hotel (Cartoon)
01 Dec 2025
Tags
Summary
It's a thankless job, cleaning up after the CIA’s top agent (who just so happens to be Travis’s childhood best friend and unrequited love interest), but Travis didn't become an NSA agent just to let Vox get caught. A day in the life of Travis’s data manipulation, hacking, intimidating witnesses, being generally menacing, and running away from Vox (because god forbid that dweeb find out about the extent to which Travis makes sure Vox stays out of jail).
A side story to explore just what Travis does to keep Vox safe. Canon to the main fic (unlike the others, which are all like, AUs of the AU).

how is a man supposed to survive his thirst if his husband isn't sending him sexy gym photos to slake it? by mangotangerine for Snorp_Lord

Summary
Alastor waits a reasonable amount of time for his husband to send him sexy gym photos, but the photos don’t come, and Vox doesn’t even respond to his texts. Before he can grow worried, he sees the bright pink, Hello Kitty phone case sitting on the counter. Vox has forgotten his phone, which means Alastor doesn’t get sexy gym photos. This is unacceptable. So he remedies it.
