Summary
Alex Big Clappy and his buddy… “Buddy” enjoy incredibly odd and weird adventures, whether that be unknowingly against speakeasy framing attempts, or other maniacal circumstances, our lovely characters will remain untouched despite all!
UPD: I have decided to structure this like Lackadaisy was, so these chapter will be quite short. Click “Entire Work” to view the story easier without going “Next Chapter →” like a billion times.
UPD: I have added “Choose Not To Archive Warnings” as part of the archive warnings since a few themes a fraction of the population could react towards are in this story, but they are important to reading this in a non-spoiled, sequential format.
UPD: this is currently (NO LONGER AS OF THE TWENTY-FIRST NIGHT OF SEPTEMBER) in hiatus until I get another plot. Homework has distracted me from getting new ideas.

Summary
Chicago, 1920. Smoke in the air, jazz in the walls, and blood behind the curtains. Klaus Mikaelson rules the city like a king, and at his side stands Stefan Salvatore — sharp suit, sharper teeth, and no hesitation when it comes to indulging the hunger he’s spent decades denying.
Together they’re unstoppable: brothers-in-arms, predators in perfect sync, a friendship built on blood and excess. Klaus sees Stefan for what he is and loves him all the more for it. For once, Stefan isn’t hiding.
But beneath the laughter, the whiskey, and the glittering speakeasies, a mirror waits. And in it, Stefan catches glimpses of the man he used to be — haunted, human, afraid. Klaus calls it weakness. Stefan calls it memory.
And in a city where loyalty is everything, one flicker of hesitation may be all it takes to turn brotherhood into betrayal.

I suck at summaries. just like a Stefan and Klaus fic.

Summary
Despite Lucifer's insistence that the situation was accidental, Alastor believed it to be a deliberate act of cruelty. Regardless of the circumstances, they are now stranded in 1929 New Orleans as humans. Through a series of misadventures and unfortunate events, a mutual attraction blooms that neither will admit to as they endeavor to find a means of returning to Hell.
"Alastor's eyes, now a shocking, familiar shade of brown behind round spectacles, widened in a mixture of horror and fury. He opened his mouth to unleash a torrent of insults, but the only sound that escaped was a choked gasp. The air felt thin, the sunlight a harsh, unbearable presence on his skin. He felt a deep, profound sense of displacement, a feeling that had been alien to him for centuries.
Lucifer, in his human form, simply smiled. It wasn't the condescending smirk of the King of Hell, but a gentle, almost empathetic expression. "Welcome back to New Orleans, Alastor. Let's take a little walk down memory lane, shall we?""

Summary
Port Townsend, 1932: the streets are dark with something more than night. Crystal Palace: a dame with no past—but she does have a dead man in her bedroom. Niko Sasaki: her neighbour—and maybe a little more than that. Edwin Payne: a private investigator with a knack for making trouble his business. Charles Rowland: a homicide detective who joined the police force because he believes in justice—though this case may break him of that habit. Why do Port Townsend’s girls keep disappearing? What’s the deal with the local speakeasy, the Cat’s Pajamas? And who really runs this town?

Summary
The Lackadaisy was in resurgence - clear as day for anyone who dared to care. This invited its own flavour of troubles and a slew of other revelations. Yet Atlas laid burried, his murderer still on the loose, and it was only a matter of time before the individual threads tangled together for a hellish dance. For Rocky, a stray newspaper article was all it took to alter his entire life's course, where he would be just a little less lonely - where he would be just a little less uncertain of who he truly was. All he needed was a Knight.

Summary
—Vienes aquí cada noche. Te arrodillas, finges rezar... pero no pronuncias palabra. ¿Qué es lo que buscas?
Max se inclinó hacia adelante, acercando sus labios peligrosamente al oído del sacerdote. Su voz se volvió un susurro cargado de provocación:
—Trato de salvarme, aunque siento que con usted... podria arrastrarme al infierno y disfrutar cada instante

Summary
1932, New York City. The twenties were roaring, prohibition speakeasies rolling in lots of money for the Vanserras; of course their front was far more family-friendly, an old Catholic Church near the Bronx with a geriatric attendance and a disgruntled pastor.
The Rosado family had their hands deep in Wallstreet. Gerard taught Rhysand how to carry on the torch of nepotism through the lobby of two Fortune 500’s. Cassian guarded Rhys with his life, and Azriel, for a short while, stood in line next to him. Three mind numbing years of knee and knuckle cracking turned him away towards the mortuary—not as a corpse, but an organ dealer. His mother hadn’t approved of his facade as a mortician, although Azriel found it reverent, she found it grotesque; She’d been hoping he’d seek higher help as soon as he switched careers, he decided to go see a priest only once his mother threatened to ostracize him when he came out to her as a homosexual.
Azriel finds acceptance and pleasure in an understanding priest’s hands.

Summary
“I want you to continue seeing this person. Gain his trust. Enough trust that he will share information with you.”
Anaxa swallowed, heart sinking. In his smallest, most choked voice, he whispered, “I can’t-”
“I know where he lives. I know the joint he frequents. Thanks to the events of last night, I also know his type. So, if you don’t,” Phainon continued, folding up the paper and reaching for his own coffee. Staring cooly at Anaxa across the table. So handsome and so perfect and so dreadfully frightening. “I will shoot him myself.”

Summary
Hitoshi Shinsou has never been much for caring, not since he got kicked off the force. You had to be a cynic to make it in his world. They called Los Angeles the City of Angels, but he knew for a fact that was a lie. His job now, as a private investigator, was to expose the misdeeds of others on behalf of the spiteful and jealous.
But when his old commanding officer is shot dead in some alley in what appears to be a mugging gone wrong, everything changes for the intrepid PI. He finds himself wrapped up in a conspiracy that stretches from the fanciest boardrooms in high-rise office buildings to the seediest speakeasies in the dangerous parts of town. Who is behind it all? What do they have to gain?
And most of all, who really shot Tensei Iida?
