Heaven on Hold 🪽
aka the "Reach Heaven Through Violence" project
Resbang posting day! Yippee! My entry for this year is a prequel to one of my existing fics, the only heaven i'll be sent to, and I'm so excited to present it to you all today! With the theme for this year's event being "No Rest for the Wicked", I couldn't resist the opportunity to revisit my Angel Maka/Demon Soul AU and BOY HOWDY was it fun to further dive into this universe! The fic clocks in at a little under 60k words in length and I could have easily gone on for another sixty thousand had time allowed it.
This year I was triple blessed with three fantastic artists! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to @thiefofblood @worldismyne and @moriohpissky for choosing my story and bringing it to life with such beautiful art - it was such a pleasure working with you all and I'm so thrilled with everything we created!
You can read Heaven on Hold in its entirety HERE on Ao3!
Summary: Banished from Heaven and severed from the only home she's ever known, fallen angel Maka spends her days in exile alone, haunted by her mistakes and hunting the sinful streets of Las Vegas, hellbent on exterminating enough demons to earn back her wings. When she meets Soul, an unsuspecting demon who takes a liking to her in a nightclub, she thinks she's hit the jackpot - her ninety-ninth demon soul, her golden ticket back to divinity, her key to leaving the mortal realm behind for good and restoring her place among the angels once and for all. However, when her attempt on his life goes awry and she accidentally binds his soul to hers, instead of a one-way trip back to Heaven, she finds herself stuck on Earth indefinitely with a demonic roommate and his equally demonic cat. And, worst of all, she has no idea how to undo the binding spell, since she doesn't even know how she cast it in the first place. Rating: E Warnings: explicit language, blood and violence, religious themes, sexual content Pairings: Soul x Maka, Tsubaki x Liz
