Summary
“May I ask what the occasion is? Is there a reason you’ve interrupted my day to call me here? Seems like quite a lot of work to go through if you’ve got no plan!”
More staring. That cold, piercing gaze. Almost unnerving, if Alastor was capable of being unnerved, which he wasn’t. The human still didn’t speak. Didn’t move. Alastor almost had to wonder if it had died of shock. He was growing impatient, and his body was starting to feel… strange. Malleable. Untethered.
“I’m listening.”

An accidental summoning results in a decade-long push and pull between a powerful demon and a powerless human. But what happens when the lines of power start to blur?

Summary
Channel 6 was one of thirty-eight television stations in the state of Virginia. It was one of eleven television stations in the greater D.C. area, and one of eight in Richmond. It was a regular television station, nothing special about it. An unremarkable, beige building on an unremarkable street. The only remarkable thing about Channel 6 was that they had decided to give Vincent Whittman a job.
Vincent had never had any plans to be on television. Most of the time he hated when people looked at him, unless he was planning on being looked at and he was doing something he was good at. Vincent Whittman didn’t think he was very good at many things, but he knew at least one thing: he was very good at talking about the weather.
Join us for a BRAND NEW sitcom, featuring a talented, colorful, and messy cast of characters as they try to navigate life, drama, and relationships against the backdrop of the Channel 6 building.
Remember: you can trust us with your weather, and trust ME with your entertainment!

Summary
If there truly was a Hell on Earth, Vincent had firmly found himself there.
He couldn't wrap his head around how his life had gone ass up; how he'd fallen so far from grace that he went from scraping the heavens with greedy hands, to crashing down, down, down into the deepest pit. He had been a god. Worshiped by the masses, adored in every American home, families gathered around the altar, eyes locked onto their televisions. Unable to look away from him.
Vincent had clawed and fought and murdered up the entertainment ladder, rung by bloody rung. Proved every rich executive wrong who dared to laugh at him, doubt him. He was the phoenix: transformed and reborn from the ashes of the bumbling, stuttering, weak weatherman, grateful for scraps. He was the voice of the people, who, with a righteous baptism, would usher forth a bigger, better, brighter future of entertainment.
And then, right on the precipice of ascension, his dreams shattered around him.

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
Alastor (40s) is a larger-than-life voice actor, known for his roles in critically acclaimed animations as well as Broadway runs. Though everyone knows his voice, his reclusive nature keeps him out of the news and away from the screen.
Vincent Whittman (30s) is a charismatic, up-and-coming actor who’s made himself at home in every medium: films, television, podcasting, music. He’s actively growing his following, constantly connecting with fans and making sure his name is everywhere.
In this parallel universe, both men are rewarded for their passion and talent with praise and acclaim. They have everything they could possibly want. And yet…neither can shake a gnawing itch inside. When the two find themselves playing opposite one another in a new animated series, how will they balance their curated presence with an unexpected curiosity?
Note: Updated 8/29/26
Sorry for disappearing for a while. I'm currently rereading to get back into the vibe, so you might see some small changes here and there. I am hoping to finish this is the next month because I do really love these characters, and I miss writing! I've become a bit...lethargic to say the least. But I'm trying to change that!Bookmarked by UndefinedSnail

Summary
Another 1930s AU fic from me, who's surprised?
_Getting rid of a body shouldn't be something Vox is so used to, and yet the steps came naturally. There was something different about himself that he was beginning to realize. Shunned briefly, but now, it sat comfortably in the corners of his mind.
The static electricity around them made Vox deeply aware of the new darkness that made itself at home. He was sure Alastor had become familiar with it too. It felt like they shared it -- as if it was one in the same -- linking them together like the red string of soulmates.
__
OR : A fic about Vox and Alastor meeting in the 1930s as kids and growing up together in a world not accepting of them. It time skips through some of their childhood as they develop into the Murder Husbands (and their feelings for each other). But in a world where they only have each other, what will happen when they're torn apart?

Summary
Vincent’s problem was always the same: he wants.
He wants, he wants, he wants. And no amount of getting or receiving will ever change that fact, will ever close the cavern inside of him that always wants more. Getting is secondary, underwhelming in comparison to the thrill of wanting. Of chasing. When he found something he wanted, he pursued it single-mindedly. He made a plan, he pulled his strings, he put every piece of the puzzle into place. That was when he was on top of the world. Receiving his prize was little more than a participation trophy, and by the time he got it he had usually already found another want. Want, want, want.
Sometimes, at night, he wondered if his luck would run out, and when. What happened when he met someone he couldn’t charm or bully into giving him what he wanted? Who was immune to his silver tongue, his clever quips, his flashy smile or a flirtatious bat of his mismatched eyes? What happened when he took a risk that didn’t pay off?
When Vincent takes a spring break trip to New Orleans to celebrate his upcoming college graduation, he may just find the answer to that question where he least expects it.
And it will alter the course of his life forever.

Summary
“Now, the million dollar questions…Who is this killer, assuming it’s someone other than The New Orleans Huntsman? Is he or she still in Louisiana? Have they already fled? Are they sneaking past us right now, under all of our very noses?”
Vincent, unable to help it, turned up the radio, (again). He loved to hear people talk about himself, especially if they had such a lovely tone. He hadn’t caught the host's name, maybe he’d-
“They could be anyone of us. Killer, if you’re listening…”
The voice continued, uncaring of his inner thoughts. He held his breath, almost worried the smooth tongue would slip away forever lest he gave it his full focus.
“Then make yourself known.”
With how the voice had just asked Vincent so prettily?
Oh, he would.
———
Or,
Vincent has gone down to Louisiana, needing to continue rising through the ranks of stardom across television. But then he ends up meeting Alastor, a local Radio Star with a bad attitude that Vincent would love to fix.
Too bad Alastor liked being difficult.
Oh, and they’re both serial killers, but neither of them know it yet. Who would have thought?

Summary
New Orleans, 1933.
Vincent Whittman’s assignment (punishment) seems simple enough: recruit Mr. Alastor Hartfelt, the city’s famed radio star.
But his trip derails the moment he meets the man dressed in a smile too sharp, with secrets too deep, and a presence that hums with something far beyond him.
One broken ritual binds them for decades, pulling them back to each other again and again, to the one soul neither can quite break away from.- Language:

Summary
“I'm bad news,” Alastor said. He didn’t realise bad news was Vincent’s favourite.
It’s 1950s New Orleans and Vincent Whittman wants a big future in television. Demon-blessed Alastor already owns the local night air. The two cross paths and one shark recognises another. When Rosie gives Alastor a job he can’t finish alone, he’s forced despite his better judgement to consider his newest friend and stalker as a potential partner in crime.
My style is visceral and often uncomfortable and intimacy and violence sit very close together. There’s a thread of black humour, and a lot of domestic interaction woven through the (I hope) gut wrenching emotional journey. If that sounds like your thing, I got you bro.
