Chapter 1: Part One
Chapter Text
1. Charlie x Vaggie: Hellborn Angel
There was no one else Vaggie wanted to spend eternity with. Her rare optimistic smile and wholesomeness was a welcome change from everything else she’d known about Hell. Hell was supposed to be cruel and ruthless. But who’d been the one to slash out her eye? Heaven’s warrior. And who’d been the one to take her hand and heal her? Hell’s Princess.
Charlie deserved the world. She was the sweetest person Vaggie had ever known. And even though it was unheard of for a Hellborn to get into Heaven, she wished it could be possible, even for just one person.
2. Husk x Angel Dust: Winner, Baby
He had a better poker face than he’d thought, Husk pondered, watching as Angel laid his cards down. He’d gotten three tens, a Jack, and a nine. Husk had gotten two nines, an eight, and two sixes.
“Oooh, looks like I win again, baby!” Angel grinned, taking his winnings. Husk gave him a congratulatory grin.
“Great job, kid.”
“Looks like I get my reward now.”
Husk flushed. Standing up, he opened his arms, letting Angel put his face into his chest fluff. He sighed, enveloping him into a hug. Husk massaged his shoulder, happy that Angel could enjoy his victory.
3. Carmilla x Zestial: New Family
Sitting at the dinner table, Zestial studied his new family: the beautiful Carmilla, her daughters - now his daughters as well - and himself. It was an honour to be loved. In life, there had been no one who treasured him like this.
It was confusing, but he’d gotten the hang of being a father. His calm and gentle demeanor worked well on gaining respect.
And being a husband was stranger. Though he loved Carmilla, and did his best to be humble, he could not shake the feeling he was doing something wrong. Perhaps that was just his past speaking.
4. Cherri Bomb x Arackniss: Magic Touch
“Careful,” he’d said, when they decided to do the thing for the first time. She asked him if it was his first time. He’d said no, but she still needed to be careful. Resting her head next to him, she ran her hands through his thick black fur.
To his surprise, Cherri’s gentleness made him feel good. He found he enjoyed her touch.
Just her massaging his back like this was heavenly. He closed his eyes, leaning into the pillow.
“How about this? Does this feel good…?” Cherri wondered.
He hummed in satisfaction.
“I always aim to please,” She grinned.
5. Lucifer + Angel Dust: Protection
Looking at the timid man, Lucifer felt his heart ache. Angel sat at a random booth while Valentino was buying groceries.
“Hey, you there, what’s going on?” Lucifer said. Angel grimaced.
“Signing autographs. Val’s making me do paid kisses too. With tongue.”
Lucifer flinched.
“That shouldn’t be allowed.”
“Well, he owns me,” Angel explained. “I didn’t allow him to hurt Charlie, and he hurt me even worse.”
Suddenly there was a fire in Lucifer’s eyes.
“I’m sorry… Did you say this man attempted to harm my daughter?!”
The next day, Angel didn’t have to come to work. Valentino was dead.
6. Alastor + Angel Dust: Gentleman
Alastor considered himself a gentleman. Be polite to women. Always hold a door and help them.
Yet, when Angel told him about his brother’s contract under Velvette, what was he to do? Velvette was crude, loud, brash, and unkind. So unlike most women he’d ever known. Yet his gentleman instinct was still there.
So how was he going to help Angel’s brother? Harming Velvette was against his morals.
By the end of the month, he decided someone was getting redeemed.
“Smile for the camera!” Alastor said, looking down at a disgruntled Arackniss. “We have a lot of work to do.”
7. Vaggie + Angel Dust: Apology
As she watched over him to make sure the Vees wouldn’t burst in looking for him, she prepared her angelic sword. She would fight to the very last breath if she had to. Nobody comes near her friends.
Blinking awake, Angel watched as she sharpened her weapon. She looked back at him, realizing what he might think.
“It’s not for you. It’s for them.”
Visibly relaxing, he watched as she practiced her swings.
“Vaggie,” he said in a vulnerable voice. “I’m sorry.”
“For what?” she replied, hoping he didn’t think that he didn’t deserve defending.
“For calling your tits small.”
8. Vaggie + Carmilla: Keep Us Together
When Carmilla had asked whether Vaggie had wanted to join her family, she was ecstatic, squealing with delight. She’d never had a family of her own.
However, with Charlie discussing laws on separating Sinners from Overlords, Vaggie begged her to reconsider. That would mean separating her from her adoptive mother.
“What do we do, then?” Charlie said. “We need to make sure a situation like Angel and Valentino never happens again.”
Vaggie deflated. She wanted to protect other people too. But she liked her new family.
“Just think about it a little more, Charlie. There has to be a solution!”
9. Sir Pentious + Molly: Anthony
“So tell me more about how you and your friends almost defeated Adam!” She said, kicking her legs on a dock. They both sat looking at the clouds.
“Well, so there I was, in my fearsome airship. I looked at them, like little ants down below. There was Charlie, and Vagatha, and Niffty, and Angel Dust…”
“Wait, what was his name?” She blinked, unable to believe it.
“Angel Dust. Perhaps he had a different name on Earth.”
She sighed. Her brother had overdosed on angel dust… Sir Pentious stopped, knowing something was bothering Molly.
“I miss Anthony…” She said wistfully.
10. Fallen!Lute x Adam: Unworthy
She scowled, walking through the dark path of Hell. Sinners everywhere screamed and threw things. Luckily no one recognized her. Unluckily she’d lost her wings trying to slay Hell’s Princess. That Sinner demon she’d advocated for had covered her with his wings, shattering her Heavenly sword.
Had she not attempted to bring justice upon the unworthy?!
Wiping her tears away, she went in search of a place to stay.
In a small, rocky mountain was a cave. She entered.
And lo and behold, she saw someone she never expected to see.
“Adam?!”
He wore a black and red tunic.
“Hey...”
Chapter 2: Part Two
Summary:
The first drabble is based on my headcanon that Angel age regresses due to trauma.
Also, trigger warning for the Arackniss and Valentino drabble.
It's okay if you want to use some of these prompts as inspiration for longer fics! Forgive me for any inaccuracies btw. I've seen the show but it's been a while.
Chapter Text
11. Husk + Angel Dust: Legos (double feature: 200 words)
Something was up with Angel today.
Husk noticed him sitting on the floor, playing with their Lego set. He built a tall building, a medium building, and had four people next to it. He hadn’t been destructive or said anything inappropriate today.
“Whatcha doing?” Husk asked. Angel smiled up innocently.
“These are my Lego buildings. And this is a family. They’re going to live in one of the buildings and haven’t decided which one.”
Husk sat next to him.
“How about that one? It’s bigger.”
Angel whined.
“Bigger isn’t always better. They like this one cause it’s more roomy.”
Husk tipped his head. He had a feeling this was a younger version of Angel. Did Angel age regress due to his trauma? Maybe so.
“Alright, kiddo. Try the smaller one.”
Satisfied, Angel moved the family into the smaller building. He’d worked harder on that building. His family was a happy one. They didn’t argue about being too poor or hit each other. It was nice. Husk played as the mother and the daughter. Angel played as the father and the son.
“Husk?” He said after a while. “Thanks for playing with me.”
“No problem, kiddo.” He said with a smile.
12. Fallen!Lute x Adam: Continued…
As he made the campfire in the cave, he roasted a fish over it. He’d made some tools during his time here and learned to fish in the lava lake.
Lute was still recovering from her recent fall from grace. Adam had made her a blanket out of bear skin and covered her with it as he turned over the coals in the fire. He sighed, trying to console her.
“To be fair, the Princess and the Twink deserved it.”
Humming, she rested against his chest.
“Mmm… I missed you. Heaven wasn’t the same without you.”
“Missed you too, babe.”
13. Redeemed!Angel + Charlie: Go Through Me
Charlie saw the sword swing towards her, but she froze in fright. This was surely the end.
All of a sudden, a mass of white feathers enveloped her, shielding her from Lute’s sword. She was being held tightly. If the wings wouldn’t stop the sword, surely the rest of the body clutching Charlie like she was made of gold would.
Feathers flew through the air. Silver glitter flew through the air as well.
With a look of horror, Charlie realized the glitter was what was left of Lute’s sword. Looking up, she saw Angel Dust was the one shielding her.
14. Alastor + Vox: Free Will
“Well, somebody decided not to play fair,” he said, a scowl tugging at his sewn-together smile. Vox was tied to a chair, an uneasy feeling coming over him. “You really thought cheating at our little game would make you the winner, didn’t you? Well, you were wrong.”
Holding Vox’s pendant, Alastor turned on the radio. The sound of static filled the air.
“Even though I’m off the air, the people are still listening. Hoping. Waiting.”
Vox had thought the best way to gain an audience was through hypnosis. Alastor was about to prove to him how dead-wrong he really was.
15. Alastor + Niffty: Tickle
After teaching Vox a lesson about hypnosis, Alastor let him go. He’d still been his friend once.
He just wished he didn’t team up with those creeps, Valentino and Velvette.
Niffty came into his office to clean, energetically sweeping.
“Niffty,” he said. “Can you cheer me up?”
She nodded. Hopping on his lap, she started to tickle his ribs. Laughing, he half-heartedly fought her while she kept at it for two minutes. It wasn’t long. She was one of the few people he trusted to cheer him up like this.
“Better?” She asked.
“Better.” He said with a flushed face.
16. Redeemed!Angel x Husk: Wings
“That’s not fair!” Husk whined as Angel held him bridal style and flew through the air.
“Of course it is! You carried me.”
He recalled how in the past Husk had flown with him in his arms. Husk had black wings with red and white dots on them. Angel’s wings were large and dove-like.
“And now we can both fly,” Angel argued. “I don’t see what ain’t fair about it!”
Husk was a little embarrassed about being the one who was carried, but other than that Angel was right.
“Alright, kid. But next time I’m the one who carries you!”
17. Valentino + Arackniss: Deal With the Devil
Facing Valentino was difficult, but Arackniss didn’t let himself falter. He had to do this.
“I’m here. I hope we can work something out,” Arackniss said in his gruff tone. Valentino chuckled, thinking over his offer.
Don’t tremble, Arackniss told himself. This is for Anthony!
As Valentino stepped forward, Arackniss felt his breath hitch. A gold contract was pulled out.
“Sign here, Nissy baby.”
He read over the contract, making sure it said his brother would be left alone. It also explained what Valentino would be allowed to do to him, and his body filled with despair.
“Alright…” He choked.
18. Sir Pentious + Molly: Bad Guy
“By the way, I’m getting married,” Molly said to her new friend, Sir Pentious. He perked up in glee.
“Really? Congratulations, madam!!”
She nodded, though she seemed less excited.
“My fiancée doesn’t want me to invite my brothers, because they’re “demons in Hell.”” She chuckled sarcastically.
“Oh.”
They stayed silent for a while. Sir Pentious put a supportive arm around her shoulders.
“I strongly suggest he reconsiders. They are your family, and if they mean something to you, they should mean something to him.”
She squeezed his hand. Unfortunately she had a feeling her fiancée would scoff at the idea.
19. Cherri + Angel: Mob Connections
“Wow,” Cherri laughed, blowing up Valentino’s studio with his former sex slave, Angel Dust. There were no witnesses and no cameras, just like last time. “I didn’t know you also had mob connections!”
“Took a bit of searchin’ around but yeah. They love me.”
It wasn’t something he would have done if those sickos Val and Velvette hadn’t gone after his brother. No one messes with his family. Especially his big brother, who had trouble with just telling you he cared.
“Alright. That’s Val. Now let’s get Velvette’s studio.”
Together they ran off, laughing as more bombs exploded behind them.
20. Vox + Alastor: Surrounded by Crocodiles
Staring at his broken screen in the mirror, Vox held the ice pack to it. How did things get like this? He’d told Val to cool it, and in response had gotten a fist in the face.
Velvette had rolled her eyes, saying he should have gotten a screen protector.
Sometimes he missed Alastor. Sure, Alastor was sarcastic and rude, but they’d made a good team. He imagined them together again.
If only he wasn’t surrounded by crocodiles. Alastor wouldn’t hurt him. He wouldn’t let him take his anger out on his slave, but maybe that was a good thing.
Chapter 3: Part Three
Summary:
I know it's been rather heavy so far. To make up for it, I might go for more humorous prompts in the future. I think this format works better for fluff than angst anyway.
Hope you liked it! Leave kudos if you enjoyed, and tell me what dynamics are your favourite. I may write more of it if I know what people like.
Chapter Text
21. Charlie + Angel: Valentino’s Deal (200 words, double feature)
“Alright, Princess…” Valentino hummed, looking her over. “If you promise to be good to me, I’ll make sure Angel has fun tomorrow. No people he doesn’t want. No toys or kinks he doesn’t like.”
She looked up at him, a vulnerability in her eyes. She wanted to save Angel. But could she go through with it?
Sitting on the bed, she avoided his eyes. He sat next to her with an evil grin.
“Perfect…”
Before they could go further, Angel peeked through the door. He froze.
“Charlie…?” He said in a hushed tone. Hesitating, he made a decision. He ran over, putting himself between Val and Charlie. “Whatever this is about, no! I won’t let you do this!”
She stayed silent while Val explained.
“I told her if she wants you to have fun tomorrow she has to pay up. With her body.”
Angel grew angry.
“No! I won’t let you!”
He pushed Charlie out of the room and slammed the door. Facing Val, he looked up, ready to take her place.
“You sure, Angel Cakes? You don’t always have to be the noble hero~”
“Leave her alone! Do whatever the hell you want to me, but leave her alone.”
22. Charlie + Angel: Poisonous Sting
She looked down at the passed out Angel. He hadn’t deserved any of it. Guilt gnawed at her heart.
Facing Valentino, she transformed into her true demon form. With Angel out of commission, there was no one to stop her from acting.
“How dare you hurt him like that?!” Her hair blew fiercely in the wind. Valentino gulped, taking a few steps back.
He’d played with fire, and now he was going to get burned.
Angel woke up in his bed, Fat Nuggets sleeping on him. Vaggie was watching over him.
“Huh… what happened??”
“You don’t want to know, kid.”
23. Vaggie + Alastor: Fake Smile
Vaggie untied Alastor from his bonds. He’d been kidnapped by Vox and Velvette, his body covered in bruises.
“Don’t worry, we’ll get you back to the hotel safe.” She said dutifully. With her angelic weapon, she’d scared off those dirty cowards. Not expecting a reply, she walked ahead and let Alastor follow.
His blue mask showed his frown. What she didn’t expect were the tears.
“Uhh, Al…?”
“No one’s ever tried to… to…” Still sitting down, his body trembled. Vaggie kneeled next to him, putting a hand on his shoulder.
“It’s alright. You’re alright.”
Alastor pulled her into a hug.
24. KeeKee + Fat Nuggets: Cuddle Pile
Seeing the pig curiously peek out of his room, Keekee studied him curiously. Fat Nuggets approached slowly, sniffing her scent. She quickly walked around him, sniffing him too.
When they ensured it was safe, they tapped noses. Then they both sneezed. KeeKee trotted off and Fat Nuggets followed.
“Hey, where’s Nuggs?” Angel said, noticing his pet pig had wandered out of his room. At the same time, Charlie called out for her cat.
“KeeKee? Where are you, girl?”
Unbeknownst to them, KeeKee and Fat Nuggets were sleeping in a cuddle pile on the couch. Husk noticed them and smiled warmly.
25. Angel Dust + Sir Pentious + Molly: Missing Them
Watching Anthony eat the salad he’d prepared, Sir Pentious let thoughts wander in his head. Now Anthony was living with him in a new apartment with his sister, Molly.
The boys sat in silence. While they appreciated it in Heaven, at the same time they missed their friends. If only Sinners and Winners were allowed to visit.
Molly came over, noticing the glumness in the air.
“I made you guys something.”
Her gift to Sir Pentious was a hard-boiled egg, decorated as an Egg Boi. Her gift to Anthony was a pink ribbon she’d made herself.
“Thanks, Molly,” they beamed.
26. Alastor + Mimzy: Smile and Dance
“Great job, Alastor!” Mimzy said, watching as he followed her dance steps. Perhaps she was a bit of a show-off, but she loved teaching people her ways. “Now you move like this!”
She stepped to the left, then to the right.
Alastor did the same.
“Wow, you’re an excellent learner!”
“I learn from the best!”
He’d always had a thing for old-school dance. Well, dances from his time.
She spun him around, startling him a bit. But he went with it, laughing along.
“You’re always the life of the party, Alastor!” She praised. He chuckled.
“And so are you, dear.”
27. Carmilla + Lilith: Paradise
Watching Carmilla with her happy family, Lilith felt her heart sink. Carmilla whispered something to Zestial, and he chuckled. Her daughters rolled their eyes, coming along silently.
Lilith had chosen Paradise, leaving her husband and daughter behind. It felt like the right choice at the time.
Now watching as the family got popsicles from a street vendor, she imagined herself and Lucifer getting the honeydew melon flavour, Charlie picking the watermelon flavour. Her daughter holding her hand, even though it was sticky… Her husband telling his dumbest jokes…
Was Paradise worth it, if it didn’t have the people you loved?
28. Vaggie + Alastor: Fuzzy Signal
What the Vees did was unacceptable.
After getting Alastor home, Vaggie had offered to clean his injuries. Pridefully, he’d refused, going to the bathroom to do it himself. He spent twice as long in there as usual.
Coming out, he had bandages on his hands and face, possibly his body too. He wore his usual smile, but it was pained.
“Listen… Al…” She started. He walked past her.
“I don’t want anyone to know they actually captured me.”
She nodded curtly.
Though his ego had been shaken, he sighed gratefully, going to get a cup of coffee.
Make that two.
29. Lucifer x Lilith: Making Amends
Perhaps she was wrong. Lilith thought it over and tucked her beach sunglasses into her bag. She opened a portal and stepped through, going in search of her husband.
At hearing the knock at the door, Lucifer almost knocked over his rubber ducks. Muttering an apology, he ran over. His heart almost stopped.
“Lilith?!”
She smiled, her eyes hidden by her large hat.
“It’s been a while, darling. May I come in?”
As he embraced her, she realized she’d forgotten how short he was in comparison. She’d missed this. His warm body, his soft hair, and… his rubber duck collection.
30. Charlie + Lucifer + Lilith
She never thought she’d see the day. Her parents were holding hands and opening their arms for her.
Feeling like a child again, Charlie raced over and embraced both of them, tears rolling down her face.
It felt like a dream.
It wasn’t.
Lilith held her hand and walked with her, asking how the hotel is doing, and how her life’s been. Charlie was ecstatic, wanting to tell her everything.
“Mom, I had this great idea, and I met these cool people, and I think we managed to redeem someone…!”
She went on and on while her parents smiled proudly.
Chapter 4: Part Four
Summary:
You know what? I'll make this into five parts. Then I'll continue my other oneshot collection.
It's been kind of a fun challenge limiting oneself to 100 words. Trying to say so much with so little. You know?
While I made this part more lighthearted, there will be more of a balance of drama and fluff in the last part. Stay tuned!
Edit: Sorry guys, I didn't do my research!! The Vox and Velvette part has been fixed.
Chapter Text
31. Alastor + Angel Dust: The Sing-along Host
The hotel was in trouble and they needed to consult Alastor. Having drawn straws, Angel Dust walked up to the radio tower door and knocked loudly.
Slowly opening the door, Angel saw something he never expected.
Alastor was rapping?!
While his favourite song played on the radio, he cut in with his own version during the instrumental parts. Eyeing the door, he suddenly stopped, mortified.
His surprise turned to quiet anger and he muted himself. Glaring at Angel he muttered.
“Laugh and you die.”
He’d said "Bangkok" for crying out loud. But instead of laughing, Angel awkwardly left the room.
32. Charlie + Arackniss: Healing Magic
After the latest extermination, Charlie looked over the bodies of everyone who was left. Sometimes she could save the half-slain sinners, though they’d usually bark at her ungratefully.
The angels had actually managed to slay the most hated Overlord in Hell this time, and all souls he had under contract were freed.
However, one of the former slaves lay half-slain under a lamp, playing dead.
Opening his eyes, Arackniss saw an angel. But not an exterminator. She put a hand over his heart and slowly healed his injuries. But why?
“Wait a second… You’re Anthony’s friend.”
“You must be Arackniss.”
33. Vox + Velvette: What Makes It Better
“Geez, quit your whining,” Velvette muttered. Vox had broken up with Val. She’d always hated their relationship since it was very violent.
“Sorry,” was all he said. Getting up, he was about to start his broadcast, but Velvette stopped him.
“You can’t go on the air in that condition.”
Sighing, he put out his arms and waited for her to straighten his clothes and wipe his screen clean. He hadn’t expected her to whisper.
“How about instead we throw things at the wall in rage? I know that always makes me feel better.”
He thought about it, and finally nodded.
34. Charlie x Vaggie: Let Her Speak
Charlie was kindhearted and meek. Sadly this meant she often let others speak over her. It was her hotel, yet the men in the place had stolen the spotlight.
Clearing her throat, Vaggie picked up a microphone.
“May I have your attention, please?!”
The arguing men in the hotel went silent.
“Charlie’s done so much for you, and yet you speak over her. You think everything revolves around you? Well guess what?! Who gave you a second chance for redemption? You should be thanking her.”
The men looked away and muttered apologies. For once, they seemed genuine.
“We’re sorry, Charlie…”
35. Charlie x Vaggie + Angel: The Inappropriate Video
“Charlie… what is this?” Angel said, staring at a revenge porn video her ex had posted. Realizing the seriousness, he paused it and scrolled away.
But Charlie wasn’t in the mindset to answer. She lay on the couch, wanting to cry but all out of tears. Vaggie held her hand.
“Angel…” She warned. Charlie was suffering and in no mood for this.
An hour later, Charlie recovered enough to walk around. She figured she may as well explain to Angel.
“Don’t worry, Toots, I took care of it.” He replied.
Scrolling through the previous tag, Charlie found the video gone.
36. Lucifer x Lilith: Love Letters
She’d asked if he’d reconsider joining her in Heaven.
He’d said he would, if not for Charlie’s hotel.
Charlie had given him hope, and he wanted to help as many people as she did.
Instead, he sent her letters. For every sinner that got into Heaven, he’d tie an envelope with a ribbon to their back. And for every fallen angel, Lilith would return one.
The souls would sometimes mutter complaints about this. Regardless, a letter was never lost.
One day, when every sinner got redeemed, Lucifer and Charlie would join her in Heaven. She couldn’t wait for that day.
37. Sir Pentious + Molly: Choices
While he missed Miss Cherri Bomb, Sir Pentious knew his true place was up here. After all, he hadn’t found his son in Hell. Perhaps he’d find him in Heaven?
“Hey, Mr. Pen?” Molly said, coming over after doing the dishes. “Thanks for helping me realize what I truly wanted.”
She hadn’t wanted to get married. Not if her fiancée didn’t accept her brothers. Sir Pentious put an arm around her shoulders.
“Of course dear! You deserve the best man possible.”
After searching so long, he realized he might never find his son again… But maybe he found a daughter.
38. Cherri Bomb x Arackniss: Movie Roast
“It would never happen like that in real life,” Arackniss commented, watching a recent movie. Cherri laughed with him. He nitpicked the logic in movies, she nitpicked the special effects.
“Yeah, there’s no way a man would jump through a glass window uncut!”
“…You know what else is uncut?” He snarked. She smacked him with her hat.
“Shut up!”
They laughed together for the rest of the film, now in a silly mood. Finally, Cherri looked up at him with sexy eyes.
“So, about that thing you said before… Care to prove it?”
He grinned, knowing she wouldn’t be disappointed.
39. Husk x Angel Dust: White Wings
“Aww, come on! It looks cute,” Angel insisted. Husk, wearing a black, red, and white tux stared at his new angel wings. They’d replaced his old black wings. He huffed.
“They don’t match my outfit.”
Putting a finger at the corners of his lips, Angel tried to get him to smile.
“Come on, Husky Baby. Just wear a different outfit, then.” He offered him an outfit that mainly consisted of white, with small amounts of black and red.
He considered it, but insisted he preferred his black tux.
“Maybe they don’t match my outfit, but they sure match your wings.”
40. Angel + Arackniss: Wedding Drama
“You’re inviting me to your second Hell wedding?!” Angel said, putting his hand over his heart. “That’s so- Wait. Why am I not the best man?!”
Arackniss rolled his eyes.
“Remember what happened last time?”
It was hard for Angel to remember, but everyone told him what a fool he’d been. He’d gotten drunk and talked more about his daddy issues than the bride and groom. Arackniss vowed never again.
Blinking, Angel shook his head.
“Okay, fair. But why is Husk your best man now?!”
Arackniss had a sly grin.
“What can I say? He has a way with words.”
Chapter 5: Part Five
Summary:
About the unhealthy Charlie x Vaggie thing. I do not hate Charlie. I think the way she treats Vaggie is due to both naivety and being a product of her environment. I do think it needs to be addressed though.
I’ve been thinking about what the lore behind Val dying again and again in this series would be, and finally came to a conclusion. Maybe you’ll like it, maybe you won’t, but I think it fits.
Sorry if some of these last ones seem anti-romance. I feel burned out on love myself, so they’re taken from personal experience.
Hope you enjoyed this! I enjoyed writing it.
Notes:
Hopefully the 'using Alastor's voice' thing makes sense. I couldn't really elaborate on it here, but basically it's supposed to parallel a character sacrificing something dear to them because they were at fault - even if it was another character's fault too - and realizing how important the thing is and wanting to fix it. Plus, I think sacrificing something like your voice - temporarily - is better than giving up your whole life.
Chapter Text
41. Alastor + Angel + Charlie: Radio Sacrifice (double feature: inspired by one of my favourite childhood animated movies)
Alastor hadn’t meant to break it.
To be fair, Angel had knocked the mic right out of his hands.
Yet, he didn’t get the blame, because he’d managed to catch it.
Alastor had fought him for it. It was his mic, and like Hell he was going to let some snarky asshole get credit for his idea. He swiped his mic back and then… snap. When Alastor had angrily grabbed it from Angel’s hand, the force was too strong and it broke in two.
Charlie’s eyes were filling up with tears. Alastor’s mic was the only thing that could broadcast her speech. Without it, they couldn’t save anyone. Katie Killjoy wouldn’t let her on the air. Vox wouldn’t let her on the air, either.
The angels would attack tomorrow, and they didn’t have a backup plan.
For the first time in a hundred years, Alastor felt something matter to him. He wouldn’t let the friends he’d made at the hotel die. The only thing he could think of was letting Charlie use his own voice to broadcast the speech. He’d have to be mute the entire time.
“Charlie,” he said, purposely not letting his voice crackle. “I have an idea…”
42. Vox x Reader: Making Fun of Tourists
As you tried to keep a straight face, Vox loaded up his best material. It was a ‘Try Not to Laugh’ Challenge. He made it difficult.
“You can’t be serious,” You said, voice almost breaking. Vox grinned enthusiastically.
“Oh, but I am! We’ve had tourists from all over, but I’ve never seen a guy as pathetic as that one guy with a rubber duck onesie! He was standing around like he owned the place!”
Your face flushed as you realized who he was talking about.
“Heh, funny, right?”
Covering your face, you laughed in embarrassment.
“Hey, it counts! It counts!”
43. Vaggie x Reader: Hold the Pickles
Opening your sandwich, you wondered what had caused such a sudden, sour taste. There they were. Two green orbs of doom. You felt sick to your stomach.
“What’s the matter?” Vaggie said. You showed her. She marched up to the man in the food truck. “Excuse me! (Y/N) asked for no pickles!”
He grinned sadistically.
“Yeah, and…?”
She growled.
“And I’m going to give you the beating of your life until you start taking your job seriously!”
He started to sweat.
“Don’t you mean “unless”?”
She shook her head.
From then on, you never got pickles in your sandwich again.
44. Velvette + Alastor: Very Evil People
Velvette thought about why Alastor had set Husk free.
He’d said it was because Husk didn’t want his Overlord power anymore, so the contract broke on its own. Surely there was more to it than that? You can’t just say you don’t want the thing you agreed upon.
She looked over the camera footage on Alastor.
Husk was telling Alastor what Angel was going through. That he’d give up his power if he could save Angel from Val.
“Wait, that’s it?” She said.
Perhaps she shouldn’t have been surprised. Alastor was far from soft, but maybe he wasn’t pure evil.
45. Vaggie + Carmilla: Burned Out on Love
She’d fought her hardest to protect Charlie. But her heart ached and she wished she could do more, but it never seemed like enough.
Carmilla held her in her arms, whispering to her that it was okay, that she was enough.
Perhaps there were things she hadn’t seen. Cracks in Vaggie’s relationship that she’d never noticed.
‘Don’t blame yourself,’ she thought. ‘You fought with love, and if she doesn’t see that, there’s no reason for you to stay.’
Vaggie held onto her tight while she stroked her hair.
Carmilla would have to have a stern talk with Charlie after this.
46. Valentino + Alastor: Again and Again and…
Watching Angel sleeping in his dressing room, Valentino approached to wake him for a surprise session.
Suddenly, he saw Fat Nuggets stand protectively in front of him. How cute.
The pig started to snarl and showed sharp teeth. Startled, Valentino backed away. Then he noticed Niffty had gotten into the room too.
She ran up to him and stabbed him multiple times, first in the leg, then in the chest. She laughed maniacally as blood spurted everywhere.
“Looks like you’ve failed again,” came a radio host’s voice. “Shall we try again? Let’s see if you actually learn anything this time…”
47. Charlie x Alastor: Fortnight
Ever since she touched his hand, she’d felt a spark. It was like magic.
She knew it might be impossible for them to be together, but she wanted to dream.
He seemed more enthusiastic dancing with Mimzy, or chatting with Rosie. She was hardly prettier than they were.
Yet when he danced with her he smiled and spun her gracefully, carefully. She imagined them as one of those cute couples in an old movie. She even made him laugh.
However, it wasn’t to last.
“I shouldn’t…” he said, looking away. “A tender heart like yours doesn’t deserve to be broken.”
48. Vox x Alastor: Playing His Song
It was Alastor’s vacation that week, so he decided to play a random Sarah McLachlan album on repeat while he was gone.
What he didn’t count on was Vox listening to his broadcast every day and hearing Sarah announce that the next song was called, “Vox.”
He scrambled to think of what to do. Did this mean Alastor still missed him?
When Alastor returned from his vacation, he didn’t expect to hear Vox talking about him less on his show. If he did mention him, it was in a positive way.
Alastor didn’t know what changed, but he was glad.
49. Charlie + Angel + Valentino: Preventing Redemption
Staring into the eyes of the person who’d brought him the most pain in his life, Angel didn’t falter. Aiming his gun at the moth’s head, he growled.
Valentino grinned up mockingly.
“You couldn’t save your Princess without me, huh?”
Angel’s hand trembled.
“Listen. Either you get redeemed,” Charlie gave him an encouraging look, easing his nerves. “Or I’m gonna beat you ‘till Hell literally absorbs you and there’s nothing left.”
Valentino felt a wave of fear wash through him. He’d provoked much more powerful souls, but something about Angel’s words felt final.
“Alright… I will give it a shot.”
50. Charlie + Lucifer: A Hellborn’s Fate
Everyone had convinced her that she could never get into Heaven. She was a Hellborn. She’d never lived a mortal life.
Yet, seeing all of her friends there smiling at her, she wanted to believe it was possible.
She transformed, closing her eyes as she spread her wings. Lifting off, she almost fell. Grabbing someone’s hand, she looked up. It was her father.
“Come on, Charlie. It’s time. You’ve walked a lonely path all your life. Now join us.”
Suddenly she grew confident that she could make it. So she flew high and joined her friends on the other side.
