Every Friday at The Mirage by Sirens_scales

Summary
Husk is a down on his luck drunk who’s running out of money and second chances when he lands a job at The Mirage, the last queer speakeasy still standing in 1937 New York City. It’s a decent job and nothing more—until Friday night, when he first catches sight of the club’s star dancer, Angel, and an instant attraction threatens to turn his whole world upside down.
Angel is juggling two lives, a mob boss’s son by day and a cabaret dancer under the thumb of a cruel pimp by night. He loves the crowds, the glamor, the excitement, but he pays a heavy price for all of it, a price nobody but the new bartender seems to see.
Both men have the odds stacked against them, but they can’t help but be drawn to each other. Still, after the cards they’ve been dealt, it’s hard to believe in happy endings. Can coked out whores and washed up drunks like them ever really make it out of the gutter?
A Huskerdust-centric human AU set in 1930s New York.

Summary
He isn’t expecting the way Valentino walks, for some reason. Maybe it’s the extra limbs. Maybe it’s the wings. Maybe it’s the heels. Vox had skipped briefly through a few of the slut’s movies, for research, and isn’t expecting the way Valentino moves in person to feel so…
Different.
“…You must be my four o’clock,” he says, standing and offering a hand. Oh, shit, he’s huge. Valentino towers over him, easily would without the stripper heels. Vox is not afraid of heights.

(in the same universe as "Hail, Horrors, Hail," but absolutely not necessary to read for this one)

Summary
When he grabs Vox again, Vox doesn't come easy—he lashes out blindly with claws and rakes them across Val's cheek, opening a thin gash, and Val grunts as he seizes both of Vox's wrists with his two lower hands and takes hold of Vox's shoulders with his upper ones. Sparks prickle against his skin, sharp and biting, but Vox isn't trying to electrocute him—he's just vibrating like one large livewire, overloading just like the machine beside them.
"No—no, don't fucking—you can't—"
Vox struggles, jerking against Val's grip, breath coming in desperate, labored gasps. Val doesn't let go. Because that was never really the question, was it?
There is no world in which Val lets him go.
Or: Valentino handles Vox's crashout a little differently.

Summary
“Owning a gun for the hell of it isn’t the same as knowing how to use it.” One hand leaves her and another slides down to grope her arse. She slaps it away absent-mindedly and tries aiming at the sheep girl’s eye for shits and giggles. Blame Vox, the looping red and black circles remind her of bullseyes. “Did you ever point it at anyone or did you just hold it to your own head to jerk off, hm?”
Or; Velvette gets shooting lessons from Valentino, and Vox likes to watch. A day in the afterlife of Hell's worst polycule.

Summary
“Rough night?”
Of course that would be the first thing Husk pointed out, the moment Angel walked in the door. He knew he looked like shit— he was clutching his arms to himself to reduce movement, limping, bitten and bruised to high hell—
“…you try somethin’ new with your hair?”
…And of course that was the second.

Summary
[“I ain’t high, the fuck are you even talking about?”
“hey, I know a man on somethin’ when I see one,” Angel stated, pointing an accusatory finger. “your eyes, Kitty. they’re goddamn huge and you’re blinking all slow. so what was it, weed? you look like a weed guy.”
oh, crap. that.]
Husk acts like a cat. not because he wants to, he hates it with all his being, but hating something is not exactly enough to make it go away. he should know, he hates having a crush, too, and it's not going anywhere, either.

Summary
Angel can’t shake the feeling that it can’t be over. How can he really be free when he knows Val is still out there, defeated but not gone? Maybe this makes him a vindictive asshole and maybe he won’t deserve redemption after this, but fuck, it’s been so long since Angel’s felt like his spite means anything at all.
He’s so sick of having a monster under the bed. Time to turn on the lights.
Or: The Vees have been defeated, but Angel and Valentino aren't finished with each other just yet.

Summary
Velvette is still feeling out the exact terms of her new business partnership. Hell's done wonders for her self-esteem, but hangups from years of rejection don't die easy; she's not in any doubt about the value she's bringing, but she doesn't want to fuck up her big break by catching any kind of feelings (pants or heart) for either of her two new, possibly dating business partners. She knows well that she gets a little bit psycho when she likes someone.
(Un)fortunately, when Valentino turns up with an invitation to see him perform, he seems to want nothing more than to draw that ugly side of her out. If she wants to figure out what his enigmatic ass really feels about their alliance, she's going to have to play along.
And try to pretend she's not loving every moment of the game.Bookmarked by smalltornadoes

Summary
Time warps in a strange way, and suddenly the show is over, and Vox comes to, finally blinking as Angel Dust leaves the stage. Her second drink is finished with, but she doesn’t remember sipping it. The audience is shifting and beginning to talk. With the back of her hand Vox wipes at those fizzing bloody power trails which have leaked from her mouth.
‘Well?’ Val asks. She licks her finger and swipes away the remaining stickiness around Vox’s screen.
‘It was passable,’ Vox lies, watching Valentine stick her claw in her own mouth. ‘Nothing special.’
She wonders if the reason Val’s fixation has stuck is because there’s just… something else about Angel Dust. Is Valentine also drawn to it? This grittiness? This shy razor edge? Vox wouldn’t mind cracking whatever it is open, and prying it apart. She wonders if Angel’s doting audience sees it too. She hopes not. Vox realises she wants it for herself.

Summary
Vox breaks the silence. ‘He’s intense, isn’t he?’
‘Well, that’s Val’s thing,’ Angel says, careful not to bad-mouth his boss, nor be disagreeable. He thumbs the rim of his glass. ‘What else were ya expectin’?’
Vox tilts his head. Those red eyes settle on him from the other side of the balcony, as if in answer. Angel feels something kindle in his chest.
Angel dares think, with a small thrill, did Valentino… not perform as well as he did?
(Vox goes to Angel for advice. ‘Advice’ esculates.)
