    Summary

    After five months of attempting to summon the Devil, Alastor was about to give up on the old occultist book he found hidden in his bayou. As he reckons with the ever growing possibility that he will lose his hard-won radio host job in the wake of the 1929 stock market crash and the ensuing depression, he meets a mysterious man in white.

    ---

    He didn’t need confirmation from his old friend that this is the man she was referring to. He looked like something out of a lovesick teenager’s fantasy. Perfectly smooth, pale skin, blond hair combed neatly back, uncannily blue eyes. He wore a pristine white suit, not a single speck of dirt on it, and a lapel pin in a shape Alastor couldn’t make out from this distance. Their eyes met, and Alastor was nearly bowled over with an emotion he couldn’t quite identify.

    …Disgust. That must be the emotion. Who was this man, waltzing into his town to flaunt wealth that others could only dream of? His suit was finely tailored, so clean, so unlike the threadbare clothes that most of the other patrons wore. He could taste bile on his tongue.

    And, suddenly, the blond man was in front of him.

    Summary

    He puts on a good show, Alastor will give him that, but it's just that—a show. Perching on the arm of the couch he watches listlessly, attention lingering on that unfading smile and the pale, dead eyes above it. Oh, they're creased at the corners, faintly lined with years and mirth, but—"Trust me," he says confidently, like he's the only thing that matters. In Vincent Whittman's world, he probably is.

    Alastor turns off the television, jaw firmly set with a new kind of determination.

    A young Alastor becomes entangled with an older TV star in more ways than he'd planned.

    Summary

    Alastor volunteers to be Vox's captive to serve his own agenda. Vox, holding a bitter grudge, intends to make him regret it. Both of them end up getting a lot more than they bargained for.

    AKA: Scene inserts while Alastor is in Vox's captivity. Alastor-centric.

    EDIT: Oops we found subplot.

    Summary

    The Might of Lilith explodes and Vox has a front row seat to the destruction he has wrought.

    Except he's not dead. He's alive in his office and watching Charlie Morningstar's disastrous interview live on screen, exactly one year before Pentagram City is reduced to ash.

    He can work with this. All he has to do is stay away from that stupid hotel for a year and everything will be fine.

    Unfortunately, a certain Radio demon has opinions about his old pal ignoring his return.

    Summary

    “As long as I wipe that grin off Alastor’s face, I don’t care what happens.”
     
    Alastor stared death in the face. As long as you never get the satisfaction of seeing me break, I don’t care what happens, he thought.
     
    But he felt raw and broken.
     
    It was poetic that, in the end, the two rivals had succeeded in dragging each other to the brink of insanity.
     
    If only Alastor could find the humor in that. If only he could feel anything at all.

     
    Or, Alastor’s plan wasn’t meant to be pleasant. Unfortunately, he had misunderstood Vox’s intentions all those years ago and was thoroughly unprepared to deal with the direction his imprisonment took him. A week of mind games, torture, and one-sided desire was enough to bring the Radio Demon to his knees.
