  3. Summary

    “Take a swan dive off of the roof,” he had said.

    “Pray you’ll be born with a Quirk in your next life,” he had said.

    Midoriya Izuku’s smiling face sits inside a case of mahogany; he is surrounded by flowers and estranged figures in black.

    Bakugou Katsuki’s hands curl into fists. “Damn it, Deku,” he whispers, staring at his childhood friend’s unchanging portrait. “Why the fuck did you have to actually do it?”

    In a hospital not very far away, a young boy named Akatani Mikumo is born.

    Summary

    The adventures of the characters of Hazbin Hotel if they were part of a local theater group. It's gonna be messy. It's gonna be chaotic. It's gonna be fun. Parts will probably not be in linear order, though I may order them properly as I go.

    Summary

    Misunderstandings, dashed expectations and the sweet little lies we tell ourselves to make them better - this is nothing new for Valentino, a moth who has always found himself hopelessly drawn to flame.

    One of the many times Valentino tries to justify Vox’s behavior. Takes place 5 years into their partnership.

    Summary

    “Yeah, this is not what Val is doing,” Vox says, gesturing to the foot of space between them. Alastor has to snicker to himself again. “…unless?”

    Vox performs a miraculous recovery from emotional turmoil to open lasciviousness. Alastor doesn’t know why he’s at all surprised.

    “I’m not going to fuck you,” Alastor says bluntly.

    Technically not what Angel Dust is doing.”

    Alastor smiles sheer incredulity across the bedspread until Vox tries again.

    “Fine, we don’t have to do that,” Vox says, still creeping forward. Alastor heaves an open sigh—frankly, he’s a bit theatrical about it. It does little to deter Vox from coming to straddle him again.

    Nor to reach between his wrists, and—

    Fuck. He’d almost forgotten about that. Vox’s claws pluck at their deal chain, suddenly heavy and tangible where it hangs like manacles from his wrists.

    “But you did mention something about this, the other day,” Vox croons, in a tone that Alastor has heard him use with Valentino several times. “Want to play ‘contract?’”

    (In which Vox and Alastor spend some quality time together, Angel Dust is circled by sharks, and Rosie haunts the narrative. Set in S2E6.)

    Summary

    When Angel comes back, disjointed and odd at times, Husk finds himself slowly helping him steer his thoughts. And maybe that implies coaxing him to eat, sleep, shower... It's not as if they're having sex.

    It ain't a sex thing.

    It ain't a love thing.
