A ghost among literal ghosts
Alastor is like a ghost who haunts their every action.
Charlie: Ugh! I hate that TV guy! After everything he did, he still has the gall to tarnish the hotel's image.
Vaggie: I know, sweetie. Itâs going to be okay. Weâll figure something out.
Angel Dust: Ya know, sometimes I just wanna take apart a guy like that and see what makes âem tick. Then, I can look for other ways to make him tick.
Vaggie: Angel, not now! Though, that doesnât sound too bad.
Heâs hit in the head by two flying objects, making him fall on his ass.
And the objects in question? A gun and a book titled âHow to Disassemble a TV for Dummiesâ.
Angel Dust: I mean we get exactly what we need right after I put the idea out there. This is a divine miracle.
Vaggie: Even if it is, none of this is actually gonna stop Vox. I doubt heâd stay still long enough for us to disassemble him-
Sheâs hit right in the face by a bundle of rope.
Charlie(looking up):Â . . . God?
Somewhere back in his radio tower, Alastor looks off into the distance like heâs in The Office.
Alastor: As funny as watching that was, it is for my own sanity that they understand that a toddler with a gun is enough to take him down. Like his penis, the design for his head wasnât made to last more than five seconds. So flashy, but no endurance.
Lucifer: Hey, buddy, Andy-
Charlie: Thatâs not even close-
Lucifer: Itâs going to be alright. That Vander guy-
Charlie: Are you even trying?-Â
Lucifer: Char char, I wouldnât try for pricks like that even if you got me back into heaven. Anyway, Iâm sure youâll figure out how to get out of this deal.
Charlie: Who knows? Maybe we could even convince him to set you free? Or, maybe we could convince him to attend a seminar on taking consent seriously?
Then, out of nowhere, a voice rings out.
Alastor: Please, a guy like that wouldnât know consent if it fucked him up his dick.
Everyone freezes and turns slowly towards Alastor who was sitting on a chair with a cup of coffee and today's newspaper. He looked to be reading the paper intently as if he say some of the most outrageous shit.
Charlie: Alastor, what did you just say?
Alastor(taking a long sip of his coffee and looking at her inquisitively): Iâm not sure what you mean, my dear. I didnât say anything.
He goes back to reading his newspaper and ignores their gawking for the rest of the evening.
Angel Dust: Iâm sick of this shit! Valâs a fucking psychopath!
Vaggie: What did he do this time?
Angel Dust: Heâs trying to convince me to do this necrophilia porno! I donât even wanna know where he got the dead body but itâs already in the studios storage room.
Vaggie: Is there really nothing you can do?
Heâs hit in the face by a book titled âHow to Kill Your Boss for Dummiesâ
Angel Dust: Oh, come on! Whoever keeps throwing those books, stop aiming at my secondary money maker! Besides, I canât kill Val, he owns my soul-!
Another book is thrown at him. This one is titled âHow to Grow a Spine for Dummiesâ
Each of them shares a look of hopelessness and genuinely donât know what to do at that point.
They hear giggling in the background by the hallway entrance. They see Alastor standing there with another cup of coffee and a blank face. He just took a long sip and acted like he wasnât the culprit.
He was but they didnât know if they could prove it.
Vox(shuddering): I know he's watching me.
Vox: Alastor! Heâs probably looking for revenge!
Velvette(not even looking up): I donât care. After that whole shit show, I donât want to hear another word about that deer. You almost got us killed because he riled you up.
Vox goes to speak when heâs hit by a bucket of water. He shuts down.
Alastor: You knew I was here?
Velvette: Vox is a creepy stalker. Heâs hardly ever wrong when sensing your presence.
Alastor: You gonna stop me?
Velvette: No, just donât get any blood on my side of the room.
Alastor(cheerfully): Alrighty, then! Valentino!
Said moth was standing in the corner.
Alastor: I want Angelâs soul!
Valentino(angry): No! Heâs my best star!Â
Alastor(gleefully pointing a butter knife): Give me his soul, or else I cut off your dick.
Alastor lunges at him and Valentino starts shrieking like a bitch.
