    Summary

    Vincent couldn’t move. Couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think. He was paralyzed, helpless, staring with wide eyes at the thing he recognized despite never seeing anything like it.

    A demon.

    The shadows split in the center of where the figure’s head should be. It tore out an expression-- a long, sharp smile. And from all around him, a voice crackled in the air.

    ”Hello, Vincent.”

    -----

    Vincent Whittman is a televangelist. In his personal life, he doesn't bother practicing what he preaches. He considers himself holy enough to be above the rules. One night, after hours at the studio, a demonic presence lingers. It uses the seclusion to remind Vincent he’s not as holy as he presents himself. And Vincent is maybe just a little too into it.

    Summary

    “There will be conditions,” Alastor says, once the door clicks shut behind Vox. Vox clenches one shaking hand against the deadbolt. He swallows, turning only once he’s had time to collect himself and lock the door.

    “Yeah of-,” he croaks, and then clears his throat, “Of course. That’s- Yes, whatever you-” he bites back the ‘want’ that threatens to complete that sentence, unwilling to make it any more obvious than it already is how badly he needs this to happen.

    ~~~~~~

    In which Vox is made an offer than he can't even fathom refusing.
