    Summary

    The first time the Radio Demon met the King of Hell was not in a hotel lobby.

    The first time they met was long ago, before hotels meant to redeem sinners, before seven year absences, and even before rivalries with TV-headed demons.

    The first time the two met, they developed a deep and dangerous bond, one that scared Heaven and powerful figures in Hell. It’s no wonder that those forces colluded to disrupt the pair. It’s no wonder both were forced to forget.

    But the Radio Demon has just freed himself from his chains. His deal is broken, his memories are back, and he will stop at nothing to remind Lucifer of what was taken from them.

    Summary

    The wound on Alastor’s chest becomes badly infected and he’s unable to manage the pain even with drugs and alcohol. It gets to the point of him passing out in one of the hotel’s public spaces, unable to recover before he’s discovered by Charlie. Charlie drags Lucifer to Alastor’s side and tearfully begs Lucifer to save him. She’s having flashbacks to Pentious’s death and is terrified Lucifer might refuse out of spite towards Alastor and she just can’t lose another friend, she can’t!

    Lucifer was never going to refuse, but the desperation and fear in his little girl’s voice breaks his heart all the same. Sure, he has his problems with the guy, but he wasn’t going to just leave Alastor for double dead. Who would he argue with over his morning coffee then? He overcompensates, just a tad, using his magic to not only mend the flesh but purge all foreign elements from the Sinner’s body…

    Leaving behind a stranger with Alastor’s face and voice, but none of his demonic traits or abilities. Or memories.

    Summary

    There was something wrong with Alastor.

    That much wasn't necessarily alarming, there was definitely something wrong with the sinner in general. So much wrong.
    Only this was a new, uncomfortable kind of wrong. Their dynamic had changed in the recent months, though Lucifer would be hard pressed to pinpoint exactly how.

    Alternatively: Alastor forces his newly found maternal instincts on a very confused, very unwilling Lucifer. That goes as well as you'd expect.

    Summary

    Alastor is full of eccentricities; he loves to cook, he refuses to listen to music past 1940, and sometimes he doesn’t speak.

    Wait, what?

    A 5+1 (4+1) where the hotel residents slowly notice a certain deers tendency to go silent.

    Summary

    Most people didn't manifest the mark of their soulmate right away. Oh, sure, it happened – it had happened with Lucifer, before anyone had known what a soulmate even was, before anyone had realised such a thing was possible for angels – but it was pretty uncommon.

    And it was absolutely possible for it to break – or fade. It was pretty unlikely on Earth, hardly ever happened during the span of a regular human life – but when the souls in question were immortal? Yeah, sometimes things changed. Relationships grew distant, love degraded. Once you'd experienced the bond fading – or worse, breaking? – no, most people were a little wary about throwing themselves into a new relationship.

    *

    Lucifer has experienced having a soulmate. Alastor has never been interested in the concept. Something is dreadfully wrong, because Lucifer is seeing shadows move out of the corner of his eye - and Alastor's claws are glowing golden.

    Shit.
