    Summary

    “The name’s Alastor, my good fellow. And what might they call you?”
    “Vox,” he replied, the new title still an unfamiliar weight across his tongue.
    “Vox? Why, what a splendid name for a talkie such as yourself.” He chuckled before playfully rapping Vox’s shins with his cane. “And a walkie talkie at that.”
    “Shut up,” Vox grumbled as he put a bit of space between them.

    ---------------

    Vox has a gig at a bar but his piano player just cancelled. Just when things seem hopeless, he meets a sinner dressed in red who is able and willing to play at no cost.
    This must be Vox's lucky day!

    Summary

    Husk said Angel was staying away because he was worried the Vees would use him again and put the Hotel in danger. Charlie couldn’t believe that, or maybe she just refused to. Angel had to know nothing was his fault, right? If anything, it was her fault, just like everything always was. She was the one who drove him away and made him feel so unsafe. She was the one who gave Vox opportunities to use Angel against them. His home wasn’t a home at all because of her.

    She couldn’t just leave him there. Couldn’t allow him to suffer like she had for so many months. And yes, Angel hated it when she meddled, but what else was she supposed to do? She had to be the one to fix this.

    And so she did something truly stupid. She scheduled a meeting with Vox.

    Charlie and Vox have a talk. Valentino looms large over it.

    Summary

    “So,” Alastor began. “Who did this to you?”

    Vox said nothing, though his askance glare gave Alastor a good idea.

    Alastor felt a sigh escape his lips. That disgusting little insect. Was it even his intention to do this? Or was it simply a by-product of his usual crass dealings? There must be purpose behind injury, otherwise it’s just thoughtless brutality.

    Summary

    “So, tell me more. When you saw me at the bar — I mean, was it an instant thing? Like, did you look at me and just know?” Vincent stopped himself. “Or, wait! You had to observe me first, didn't you? That seems more like your style. And those police reports – pretty colourful execution methods! Really gives you a thrill, reading about them… Did you start flipping through your mental catalogue, when you saw me?”

    “Don’t flatter yourself,” Alastor said. “I supposed I would kill you the same way I kill any other man.”

    -

    It's not Alastor's first time holding a man hostage and threatening to murder him. He's just not sure why this one is so excited about it.

    Summary

    "For what is a man, what has he got? - If not himself, then he has naught - To say the things he truly feels - And not the words of one who kneels - The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way"

    Following the finale, the hotel and the Vees decide to forbid the now-free Alastor and the now-subdued Vox from seeing each other after the stunt they’ve pulled, afraid they’d cause more trouble for hell.

    But obsessive hatred runs quite deep, and if the two can’t find a way to ruin each other’s lives in hell, they’d risk everything to find another way in another place.

    Somewhere out there exists a universe in which Alastor and Vox are as close in every sense as possible. Geographically, temporally, emotionally. An alternative version of Al and Vincent on Earth in the modern times. One day, they begin to get spontaneously possessed by their demon counterparts, whose plan consists of tormenting each other in their bodies.

    Their possessions won’t always be timely consistent, leading to a few teeny-tiny... mishaps.
