Summary
Alastor understands how to make tough choices. The bloodier, the better, he always says! But when he unexpectedly becomes a father?/mother?/parent, the decisions he must make bring him to his knees.
Parenthood is a job Alastor never expected or wanted. Frankly, he has no idea how to do it!
But, hey, at least he has one thing in common with the King of Hell now, right?
Or: it takes a hotel to protect a child from Heaven (oh, look! They are here too. Wonderful.)

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.

Bedtime Rituals to Try out Before the Next Angelic War by Budinca
Fandoms: Hazbin Hotel (Cartoon)
20 Apr 2024

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?

Summary
Lucifer is absolutely ecstatic when Charlie offers to include a permanent set of quarters just for him in the blueprints for the brand new Hazbin Hotel. Getting to see his little girl for as many meals a day as he remembers to eat is great! Except sometimes that number of meals is exactly zero, and other times he sees her but doesn’t quite manage to follow the whole conversation, but—it’s all group hangouts full of chatter from her little friends around these parts anyways! He’s sure that it’s hardly noticeable! ...He really hopes that it’s hardly noticeable.
Or: Lucifer has a difficult, very normal day. He tries very hard anyway.

Summary
There's this... silly muggle theory.
In any romantic relationship no matter how perfect or healthy, you only get eighty percent of what you want and need. The problem for some, is that when you do encounter that last twenty percent you're not getting; it becomes incredibly tempting and the unwise man may leave that eighty percent thinking they're about to get a hundred only to be left with twenty.
But sometimes, it can go the other way around. Sometimes you'll end up leaving twenty and end up with eighty.
In seventh year James left Severus for Lily.
Best choice he could have ever made. It never would have worked out. Besides, he and Lily are married now, she's pregnant with his soon to be child and Severus...
Severus is with Sirius.

Summary
And then the countries start filing out onto the stage, one by one. And then it’s their turn to step out of the tunnel, into the heart of the National Stadium, into the blinding lights and the deafening cheers and the music that pounds into every bone in his body. And then it finally hits him.
He’s here.
