Summary
Lucifer sat at the edge of the bed.
Not their bed but one left abandoned in Alastor’s old rooms, untouched and forgotten since before he’d moved into Lucifer’s. The sheets smelled wrong - faded with disuse, lacking the sharp static bite of Alastor’s scent - but his body had already begun to twist the space into something familiar. Something necessary.
A nest was forming.

Summary
Alastor has been the conductor of the orchestra for years, youngest ever to hold the position, thank you kindly. When the Board pushes for an open audition, he was prepared for the tone-deaf clout chasers to waste his time.
He was not prepared for Lucifer, the man who ruined his mid-morning coffee run, to reignite the fire in his heart that once drove him to compose. He was not expecting the return of the muse he lost years ago to be accompanied by violin concertos and dazzling sapphire eyes.And Lucifer? He just needed to get out of his newly-leased divorcee pad and figured the old violin he found amidst the boxed up ruins of his marriage was better than pickleball.
AKA
Lucifer makes a deal with Alastor; an audition for a phone number. As in all things, they make a royal mess of it from there.

Summary
Alastor's ears twisted and swivelled, following the sounds of Lucifer's movements. Every soft tread of his hooves was loud, even muffled as they were against the rug. His own breath was louder, his pulse worse still – trying to steal his attention, trying to make him lose track of where Lucifer was.
A thrill raced down his spine, his tail quivering against his wrists. Folded over one another, as though Lucifer wanted to mock him for his oft-adopted posture when walking about the hotel – but there was no mockery here. Lucifer had tied his wrists, his arms, all so Alastor couldn't touch. It didn't matter what pretty promises he made, the deals he offered – Lucifer had rejected them all.
So here he was. Kneeling on his haunches, stripped to his skin, arms bound behind his back – waiting.

Or: If Alastor wants to experience Lucifer's wings, he needs to sit still, be good, and let Lucifer decide what he can handle.

Summary
“You are something else,” Alastor mutters, his smirk turning kind of deranged as he watches the commotion in the water when an alligator thrashes in it to get to the human meat.
“Oh, darling,” Lucifer huffs, successfully pulling Alastor’s attention to him as he steps into his personal space. He stands on his tip toes until the barrel of the Winchester rests against the center of his forehead. “You don’t know the half of it,” he whispers with confidence, grinning a bit too wide with the slightly too sharp teeth and his eyes might have an unnatural red glow. Risky, putting it in one word.
And yet, he watches as the man’s pupils dilate slightly.
Got him.

Summary
The last time Alastor saw Lucifer Morningstar, his white dress shirt had been plastered to his slim chest with rain and his ruddy cheeks smeared by tears.

Or, Alastor and Lucifer were college sweethearts before Alastor ended things suddenly and cruelly. When they meet again, nearly twenty years later, Alastor tries to hold onto the man he’s loved this whole time.
