    Summary

    Alastor didn't realize that summoning the devil to trade his soul away for power in Hell would end up like this. Never did he expect for the King of Hell himself to not only be a short, bleach-blonde with rosy cheeks -- but also to be so fucking clingy.

    Worst part? He has to deal with a dog disguised in a human flesh-suit that won't leave him the fuck alone.

    _

    Or: an AppleMedia fic where Alastor makes a deal with Lucifer instead of Rosie, and Vincent saves his life from the hunter. Vincent follows Al like a moth to a flame, but finds himself growing very jealous of some mystery-man that Alastor keeps talking to on the phone.

    Summary

    Vincent Whittman was born for greatness.

    He has plans. He’s going to escape the white picket fence future everyone has predestined for him, he’s going to climb his way up in the burgeoning realm of show business, and he’s going to rise higher and brighter until he’s the only one everyone will see.

    He’s also going to kill his father. That last bit is proving trickier than the rest, but he’s got it all figured out. If he plays his cards right, everything will go his way.

    Until it doesn’t, and Vincent is drawn into a chase that threatens everything he’s ever worked for, a pursuit that drags him around the world, following a shadow that systematically haunts and taunts him at every turn. What does this shadow want, really, and can Vincent outmaneuver him whilst balancing his own extracurricular activities? Only time will tell.

    Summary

    As the eldest, Seonghwa couldn't protest his parents' demands any longer without giving them a strong reason as to why he should be allowed to hold onto his bachelor status for good, seeing as he was already in his late twenties and had shown no interest in pursuing women.

    If only he could confess that he had known from a young age that the clacking of a pair of dress shoes managed to turn his head faster than the delicate sound of T-strap heels....

    or an Arranged Marriage AU with a fortunate twist, queer history and finding freedom within the closet during the 1930s.

    Summary

    They existed before humans learned to name the darkness. And they waited — patient, silent, immortal — until you stepped through that door.
    The coastal city. The orange-tiled roofs. A small shop.

    You were not chosen because you are strong.
    You were not chosen because you are special.
    You were chosen because you are the only one — among all the souls who have passed through this city — who could look straight into the eyes of a mysterious being and not bow your head.

    That quality is rarer than any miracle.

    Summary

    Charlotte was the daughter made of sunshine and big, bright dreams. Diana? Diana was made of the quiet,always in the background, stuck with a title from Heaven she never wanted.

    Now, she’s come to in a damp New Orleans alleyway with no memories, a scratchy blanket, and a cold that won't leave her bones. She doesn't know who she is or why she’s there, all she knows is the woman who found her is very kind.

    And then there’s Alastor. He’s sharp, he’s curious, and he’s looking at her like she’s a riddle he has to solve.

    Being human is a lot harder than the stories she grew up on, but maybe it’s a little easier when you aren’t doing it alone.

    Summary

    New York is easy. Not safe, not comforting, just easy. Easy in the way Jeongin can drift through smoke-filled rooms loud with music and money, unnamed and untouched. Easy in the way he can direct his hunger where he wants it without consequence.

    It stays that way until it doesn’t.

    Minho arrives with ash-colored eyes and a face that won’t hold still long enough to be captured, offering rules instead of comfort. Sharp guidance threaded through intimacy, possession disguised as kindness, smiles that gleam like unsheathed blades when the light hits just right.

    What begins as an encounter unravels into a slow, tightening bargain, one Jeongin can’t fully name even as it starts to shape the way he wants, the way he takes, the way he survives. And at the center of it all is something older, steeped in darkness and deadly obsession: a private auction, and a portrait with eyes that follow you and paint that looks wrong, waiting to be claimed.

    Summary

    “You have the body. And the legs.” She commented, sizing him up and down.
    “All we need is some eyeliner, and a bit of some blush..”
    Alastor interrupted her at that.
    “Dear.. For what?”
    Mimzy spun the chair, twirling and giggled with glee.
    “For your stage persona, that's what!”
    ___________
    Mimzy’s once radiant and active jazz club, The Satin Doll Revue, is falling into a crisp. In a last minute attempt, she forced a reluctant Alastor to go up there in drag and save it under the name of Miss Alyssa, the new mistress of jazz and radio.
    Alastor didn’t expect it to save the jazz club, and he didn’t expect him to enjoy and make something out of it.

    Summary

    Saying that Spamton was down on his luck was a generous understatement. After a failed stint in advertising, and with no other options available to him, he was forced to shoulder the embarrassment of crashing with his sister and her family, dogged with the question of when will he find something else.

    Maybe that's why he ignores the warning signs when he scores a place at the local theater.

    He could handle rumors of a ghost; they weren't real, after all. The incidents that led to the theater closing down? Tabloid, it had to be. Even the things going bump in the night had a clear explanation. But the mysterious, charming man promising him a chance? Now that was harder to ignore.

    Summary

    This is how monsters are made….and how someone learns to love one anyway.

    You knew him before the radio show. Long before Hell, long before he became dangerous.
    To you, he was always just, Alastor. And maybe that was the problem. Because by the time you realized what he was becoming, you were already in too deep.

    The story of how you fall in love with a monster only to follow him in the decent to Hell.

    Summary

    Alastor always knew he was meant for the radio, destined to become the voice of New Orleans. What he didn’t know, was how quickly his rise to popularity would draw the attention of a certain young man.

    As his influence grows, so do the consequences he refuses to acknowledge; strained connections, misunderstandings, and a pattern of violence are things he has managed to escape the repercussions from his entire life. Until death forces everything into light.

    Some things can be ignored. Others only wait for the correct moment to strike.

    Summary

    Caesar couldn’t help but steal glances at the British man. He was tall, muscular, dressed far too casually—his biker jacket and gloves still on, his tie partly undone and hanging loosely around his neck—and not even taking notes, just staring at the teacher with an expression of clear boredom painted on his face. Out of curiosity, Caesar sneaked a peak at the list as the guy was writing down his name: Joseph Joestar.

    “How’d an imbecile like you even get accepted here, Joestar?” Caesar whispered Joseph’s way,

    Summary

    I’m pushed face down into the dusty fabric. They hold me fast as they relieve me of my boots, my stockings, my slip, my underthings—until I am as naked as the day I was born.
