Summary
In the aftermath of his disastrous attempt at godhood, Vox develops an algorithm to analyze Alastor's every move, looking for any sign or signal that the Radio Demon is still thinking of him. When the algorithm starts to return results, Vox becomes more and more obsessed with trying to respond to the hidden messages Alastor is broadcasting.
AKA: Five times Vox thought Alastor was sending him hidden messages, and the one time he didn't.
“Fuck you, Vel. I’m being subtle, and responding to the message he sent me.”
“What fucking message?” Velvette threw her arms into the air. “He’s not sending you messages! You. Are. Making. Them. Up. It’s all in your head, you arsehole.”
“The algorithm doesn’t lie.”
“The algorithm might not, but your fucking damaged brain sure as shit does. You are seeing shit that just isn’t there.”
“Vel…”
“Show me this fucking message.”
Vox looked away from the screens as he demurred. “It’s complicated.” -

Summary
If angels are supposed to be the embodiment of God's love, then why does no one but Lucifer care that Lilith is being abused?
“What burden weighs on you so heavily that such tranquil beauty is needed to bear it?”
“It is nothing, Speaker. I spoke with Uriel and he set me on the correct path.”
The Speaker of God turned to look at Lucifer, her face full of a terrible compassion.
“If the path is correct, then why do you weep?”
Lucifer took in a shaky breath. “The path is correct. I am flawed.”
“Are you sure?”

Summary
In the aftermath of his banishment and the loss of almost everything he holds dear, Stolas struggles to find a way to silence the voices in his head that are determined to make sure he never, ever forgets how profoundly he has failed.
The pain rang through his brain like a clarion call. He gasped and went perfectly still, staring down at his hands, at the blood black as motor oil spilling out of him, dripping onto the cutting board and gathering in a shimmering pool. The pain spread through his body like a splash of ink in a glass of water, stark at first but diffusing quickly, disappearing but leaving every drop changed.
And in his head, blessed, ringing silence.
No thoughts, no words, just the fading memory of pain as bright and sharp as a lightning strike, already gone by the time the rumble of thunder came rolling through the air.

Summary
Valentino drops off a badly-injured Angel Dust at the Hazbin Hotel, but is unprepared when the hotel's residents refuse to let him just walk away. Once Val is incapacitated and locked in a warded room, Charlie and the residents need to decide what to do with him. They give Valentino an ultimatum: he must release Angel Dust from his contract, go through anger management therapy, or they'll kill him permanently. Unable to stomach the other options, Val elects to stay...at least until he can find a way out with his personality intact.
Updating daily until the release of season two on October 29th!
Vaggie stalked to stand over Val’s prone form, her angelic steel spear raised over her head.
“Vaggie, wait!”
Vaggie halted in her tracks and closed her eye, her face pulled into a grimace.
“Charlie. You can’t be serious.”
Then Charlie’s hands were on her shoulders. Vaggie took in a deep breath.
“Vaggie. If we say that every sinner can be redeemed….”

Back Against the Rails by MothballMilkshake for Coleoidea

Summary
A lot of things about the hotel had changed since Lucifer had first visited.
Well – considering the entire thing had been a knock-down rebuild, that probably went without saying. Gone were the tattered curtains and mismatched furniture, the bar that had been yanked right out of reality and plopped down in the middle of the lobby. And those railings? Reinforced, reinvigorated, rejuvenated – uh, other words to describe the repairs.
There was another thing that had changed about the hotel, something a little more personal. Something Lucifer was currently enjoying to the fullest, his forearm propped on one of those aforementioned railings as he watched Alastor finishing his morning cup of coffee. At the table on Lucifer's balcony. The balcony they were sharing, because, yep – the Radio Demon now resided in his rooms.
*
Or: Lucifer and Alastor are enjoying their morning coffee, until Lucifer issues a challenge Alastor simply cannot let pass. How sturdy are those railings?
