Summary
The year is 1955, and Vincent Whittman's life is perfect. Skilled, ambitious, and deadly in more than a metaphorical way, he's poised to take the world by storm. His ratings are rising, he's loved by everyone around him, he's getting a pay raise, and as long as he doesn't think too hard about how much he hates, hates, hates that fool on the new nighttime show who gets more attention than him, things are almost too good to be true.
Except his studio just acquired a smaller one, and one of the new transfers, Alastor, rubbed him the wrong way and now he's got to try not to think about that too. Not his condescending attitude or the eye-catching way he walks or how his show is incredible, actually, and he earned every second of his airtime despite being an insufferable fop who think's he's better than Vincent.
Keeping his mind off the things he's not supposed to be thinking about is only getting harder and harder these days.
1950s AU exploring the idea of what could have happened if the terms of Alastor’s deal were different from the canon.
