    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

    After what might be the best day of Vox’s afterlife, and perhaps one of Alastor’s worst, they have their first evening together in seventy years. And it’s not like Alastor can stay tied up in the desk chair all night.

    Summary

    "There’s silence for a moment, oppressive—Pentagram City never sleeps, not really: this is the silence of a dead thing. It weighs on Alastor, in a way that death, usually, does not. Vox’s body wheezes, squelches, crackles; his systems struggle to stay online as blood and coolant pour from the space where his torso ends, body blown to pieces by his own weapon. Funny, that his attempts to destroy Alastor destroyed him, instead. Perhaps it was always meant to end this way."

     

    OR: Valentino's intervention comes a moment too late, and Pentagram City is destroyed. Two sinners remain in the aftermath.

    Summary

    ”You’d call everything off right now, just for this?”

    Just for this, he says. As though it’s trivial. As though it isn’t everything that Vox has dreamt of every night for the past several decades. As though the rejection doesn’t sting just as sharply every time he wakes up and reaches to the other side of a cold bed, hands searching for a lover that will never be there, and hears callous laughter echoing in the back of his skull.

    Vox sucks in a shaky breath, closing his eyes. He tilts his face downward, unable to look at Alastor when he admits it. He almost can’t bring himself to, sure that Alastor is already certain of the answer.

    ”Yes,” he whispers.

    ”You can’t be serious,” Alastor says quietly.

    ~~~~~~

    In which many things come to light, all earth-shattering.
