    Summary

    He hadn’t even managed to put on shoes when Charlie’s loud, desolated groan at the other end of the hotel had made him rush out of his room, and his slippers and the hems of his pyjama bottoms were slowly getting soaked through. Why the fuck had he even bothered to change? He loved Charlie (see constants no. 1-4), but even he had to admit his current discomfort was solely the result of the list of healthy bedtime rituals she’d organised for him when, allegedly, the bags under his eyes had started developing a gravitational pull.

    In which Lucifer has insomnia, the hotel is moderately alive, and Alastor is in over his head.

    Summary

    Charlie is determined to check up on Alastor after he is injured in his fight with Adam. With her father’s help, she finds a ritual meant to heal holy wounds, though it requires an object owned by a virtuous soul. Given that even heaven acknowledged that Angel Dust met their requirements for redemption…surely that’s enough for the ritual to be done correctly?

    Or: Angel Dust wakes up in Alastor’s body. Everyone thinks this is very funny, until it really, really isn’t.

    Summary

    Alastor is best known for singing jazz, swing, and a little bit of Motown when the fancy strikes, but his career has begun to stagnate. Record sales are slipping, tour attendance is waning, and now the executives are asking for him to be an opening act for Angel Dust, the hottest pop star on the scene with a reputation of debauchery befitting his name.

    It'll be easy enough to keep the other man at arm's length, of course... won't it?
