Hyperfixation Hell (💖)

How do you think Expired!Rosie and Canon!Rosie would react to eachother?

Do you think Canon!Rosie would envy Expired for having a closer relationship with Alastor despite (or rather because of) the lack of a soul leash binding them together? Would she realise how she very well could have irreversibly damaged their friendship -looking at Expiredverse, she wonders if they were friends?- as Alastor will never truly trust her after refusing to help him? She sees how Expired!Alastor doesn't flinch or tense when her alternate self pets his ears, despite grumbling about it stupid or embarrassing, and feels shame for the first time in decades.

Would Expired!Rosie be tempted to kill then eat her Canon self before taking over her town after seeing how she treated not only (an alternate version of) her best friend but another cannibal? Would she snap at her for treating Alastor, who had told her of the discrimination he and his mother faced, as less than? Would she see canon's toxic behaviour, and wonder if she would've made the same choices if Alastor had summoned her back then? Is she truly any better than her?

Okay, so, Expired!Rosie is actually very similar to canon!Rosie, as you will see when you get her pov. She's not nearly as nice or kind as Alastor thinks. I am actually going to include Alastor doing magic when he was alive/trying to summon a demon to secure himself in hell in Expired, the divergence point is just that he wasn't able to contact anyone in expired! Expired!Rosie would LOVE to own Alastor/have him join Cannibal town/possibly marry him - he's the one who got away!

But while Canon!Rosie has had Alastor as her thrall and that power dynamic between them, Expired!Rosie hasn't, and she actually likes and gets along with Alastor! She approves of how he does things and the orphanage! She likes him! And thinks he's far too nice and kind for Hell, cause she doesn't know he's the one killing overlords!

Canon!Rosie gets to see her other self and Alastor as actual, real friends, and be envious, and realise she's fucked up. Expired!Rosie gets to see what she would have been, how she would have treated her dearest friend

Expired!Rosie also gets the undercurrents more, because Expired!Alastor actually lets her know about it when more coloured cannibals show up, and she very well might want to kill and eat her counterpart!

Cyntessa dies and while the Solver is left with Uzi, Cyn and Tessa's souls get slingshotted through dimensions until they land in the hellaverse, as *Alastor's* children, though I'm unsure when in Al's timeline this is

Idea 1) human Alastor has them, idea 1a) they're adopted cause he just found two toddlers in the bayou and couldn't in good conscience leave them there and no one was claiming them and the orphanages were all full Mimzy leave me alone-, idea 1b) they're biological children from a one night stand where he tried to figure out his sexuality with Mimzy, idea 1c) they're biological children from a one night stand to figure out his sexuality but Alastor's trans and he's carrying them

Idea 2) they're Vox's kids from before the falling out, radiostatic had a one night stand to help Al figure out his sexuality, and this was before the betrayal from Vox with that fuckass proposition so he might or might not be in their lives depending on Alastor

Idea 3) this is happening post season two and they're conceived from the remnants of angelic energy from the wound Alastor got from Adam, and also Vox's electricity, so Tessa has more angelic features while Cyn has a screen face and comes out like a drone

I kinda low-key wanna make their looks now actually

I think I like Alastor finding two random babies and adopting them but I also like Radiostatic so this is a bit of a toughy.

Idea! What if Alastor was exploring their sexuality but one of their partners was Vox’s father? It was very experimental.

Fun way when Cyn becomes a Sinner she is techy like Vox but is so much more “superior.”

Regarding Tessa, as a human, I can see her having brownish skin and brown hair just like Alastor.

Then for idea 2 we got the radiostatic twins (Cyn is more deer and while Tessa is also a deer she's also more shark than Vox actually is, and also I figure Vox would like to put his kids in outfits with more of his colours than just Alastor's)

And then for idea 3 we got the guitarradiostatic twins and their angry forms (Cyn is more radiostatic and Tessa is more GuitarRadio)

Cyn as Alastor's past life instead of Tessa

The process of becoming biomechanical gave Cyn a soul, and of course they went to Hell, but before that they were reborn in another world as a sort of cosmic second chance (they did not use it very wisely)

They were very attached to their Mother, they never had one of those before, just a few Big Sisters (Tessa, J, and V), a Big Brother (N) and abusive owners (the Elliots), and Mother was very kind to them and taught them that there's something in humanity worth loving and preserving (so instead of mass omnicide it's "just" genocide)

They don't have access to the Absolute Solver abilities for the first decade and a half of their existence, but then they slowly start to develop their abilities over the years one by one, they won't get to be at full world ending power until they're just a little bit over a hundred years old, and during the boring wait time, they've started to consider other options for humanity

This idea was brought to you by me realizing the word "sinister" and Cyn - Alastor sound alike lmao

I like to think Cyn and the Absolute Solver are technically separate but have been entwined for so long that they are more or less one entity. Until Uzi ate the Solver’s Core and it disconnected from Cyn.

I also like to think while Cyn was not initially evil, their circumstances and the Solver didn’t really help them make good choices.

Lacking affection(except for a few), it’s no wonder Cynastor became so attached to Mother. To them, no matter how odd and unsettling they are, Mother was patient and kind.

Growing up, Mother would explain and teach what they did not understand and helped them be more “human.”

In their current life, they vowed to protect and preserve Mother, better than what happened with Tessa and their friends. But unfortunately they still failed cause Mother was murdered.

Cynastor normally would’ve gone straight for omnicide but they had no power. And Mother’s teachings had made them reconsider pure genocide considering there are many people similar to Mother who were killed and the killer just walked away easily.

It’s not genocide but Cynastor will be cleansing the world of people like her Mother’s killer.

If they found out they can consume the souls of their victims and gain power, well that’s just a coincidence.

Cynastor fully powered form

Faith is a fragile thing. Especially when it’s put on display.

All of us, all the time

Mortality’s a blade

Swinging with no reason, no rhyme

When you’re that scared

Teeth are that bared

Ready to say anything

Do any sin

to any man

Valentino's chain on Angel: Made of smoke; flimsy and lacking integrity. I recall Vox in Radio Killed the Video Star asking Val if Angel had quit. If that's been an option for Angel this whole time, why hasn't he done it yet? The answer is in the screenshot above: it's smoke and mirrors. Whilst the contract itself isn't airtight, Val's manipulation of Angel is what keeps him in place.

Alastor's chain on Husk: Cast-iron; damn near unbreakable. Husk is completely at Al's mercy.

Alastor's chain on Charlie: There isn't one, but we can see how their little favor quite literally forced her hand.

Rosie's chain on Alastor: Also not a chain, instead a leash. Doesn't look particularly strong, and that's because it never really was. Alastor could've backed out whenever, but he would've lost his powers along with it. Instead, he exploited a loophole that made Rosie break her end of the deal and was thus able to retain his powers.

It's one sided radioapple (Alastor isn't loved back) but mutual radiostatic (still tragically misunderstood though we gotta get through angst before they can rekindle)

Lucifer is more like Magne but not obsessed with Alastor for anything other than his Pure Heart as an ingredient in bypassing the Sinners curse of infertility (this means Charlie is you get than she is in canon)

Lucifer played a human white witch Al like a golden fiddle and had him falling in love over the course of a couple of years of careful manipulation and lies, only to then steal his virginity and his heart, and then emotionally devastated him so thoroughly it opened Alastor up to being influenced by the Root of All Evil

Roo loved him the moment her shadows touched him, she wants to keep him, she wants him to come down and be hers, except his soul is bound for heaven, so she whispers into him that if he wants someone who will love him forever and ever and ever unconditionally, he needs to sin, he should follow her instructions to summon one of her followers and then she'll make sure Rosie treats him right

He just doesn't want to be lonely anymore, his chest is so cold where his heart used to be, so he listens and does the summoning carefully, and Rosie helps him grow his own Apple tree

He takes a bite once it produces fruit and his Shadow starts to move

He listens to and obeys Roo's instructions and starts killing those he seems unworthy of the gift of life, meeting new acquaintances but never making any friends

Eventually he dies and wakes up in hell as a peryton, and he and Rosie are real friends and he owns his own soul and he can see and hear what others can't, he is the voice and eyes of his Mistress of Evil, he worships her and revels in the fun of being powerful for once in his existence

Decades after he dies he meets a picture box that charms him, who keeps up with him on the dance floor, who makes his chest feel *warm* for the first time since the Devil stole his Heart

He thinks he can be happy

But Vincent wants more

Vincent want his power

Vincent played the long game and Alastor was caught off guard, but he refuses to lose

Alastor lashes out and echoes the words that had haunted him since Lucifer revealed "Lucien" to be a lie

Vox hadn't fallen to despair like Alastor had that night, Vox had lashed out and they fought violently, the Strongest Sinner in Hell putting the second in his place

Their separation made Alastor's chest feel colder than even the loss of his Heart did

Lucifer meanwhile had slowly softened up once Charlie was born, a girl with a Pure Heart so bright it bled into even the Devil

He starts to feel guilty for what he did but he can't even recall the witch's name, besides there was nothing he could do to make up for stealing his Heart, no matter how bad Lu feels about it, he'd never undo it

He'd never choose anyone or anything over Charlie

When Alastor eventually sees the hotel on TV he recognizes his old mannerisms in Charlie and realizes what the Devil wanted his Heart for

Originally he went there intending to hurt her like his father hurt him, but after spending a few minutes with her, he changed his mind and decided he wanted to see her dream come true

This is SO ANGSTY - you know what would really dig it home for Lucifer?

Charlie didn't just inherit the pure heart and innocence and goodness, she literally inherited the PURE HEART - and someone tries to do to her what Lucifer did to Alastor, and as he holds her later as she sobs and shakes and feels so betrayed and hurt, he feels guilt and regret for the first time in millenia - and its also around this time he realised he had, actually, loved Alastor, he just hadn't realised it.

Lilith finds out what Lucifer did - to her baby's descendant, a White Witch who couldn't fight back - and leaves.

And when Lucifer goes to his daughters hotel - something about the hotelier is very familiar.

And then S2 arrived and was like "Actually, Alastor takes his tits out when he wants something from Vox and Vox immediately caves but then doesn't even do anything with it."

Hysterical.

Alastor is the one making it sexual instead and Vox is just there.

And this moment

Alastor goes from torn, tattas-out clothing back to his buttoned up immaculate clothes.

And since he clearly didn't have any free movement after the deal, SOMEONE had to repair and button his jacket and shirt.

You remember back in the Olden Days when Addict first came out and there was an influx fanart of Angel Dust and Alastor in eachother's roles?

What if we tried to make an updated version of that?

Angel Dust as the badass Mafia Overlord who decides to 'cozy up' with the Princess and her girlfriend's redemption project out of 'charity'- if the fact that Valentino made a show of openly mocking them live on TV and he wants to spite his ex-partner who tried to drug him that's none of their business. Angel isn't the Boogieman figure Canon!Alastor is, since he can't permanently kill without angelic steal or put his victim's screams on the radio, but he does have a large network of small businesses and grunts who will act as guards, maids, chefs and take inventory for the defenseless Hotel.

Also he brings in his washed up ex-Overlord boyfriend Husk to act as a bar tender.

Meanwhile, the Hotel's first client is Alastor, a popular singer and Radio Host owned by Voxtech- I mean, legally hired by Voxtech, who isn't interested in redemption so much as freeing himself from his abusive boyfriend and soul owner, Vinnie Vox, who owns the majority of Pentagram City's technology and media. Since Vox is a possessive bastard who outright lies about the tail Alastor absolutely has, there is no way in Hell he would have his deer making porn, but I think he would show him off while making extra cash. All of Hell can look, but none of them can touch!

So Alastor's version of Addict or Poison might be something like the song 'Spoken For' ft Kasane Teto.

Vaggi is the one leading the Redemption project in this AU, inspired by Charlie's kindness to her when the Princess saved her life; the Redemption is not only for the sinners but in hopes of redeeming herself after taking part in the Exterminations. Unlike Charlie, she is practical and straight forward in her interview so no singing, advertising it as a place you can go to for protection and shelter, but she loses her temper with Killjoy quicker than canon.

Charlie is still the Heart of the Hotel even if she is no longer the leader! She is the one to bring in Alastor, being reminded of her still missing mother when she sees him performing, and follows her girlfriend's lead in offering him protection when she sees him wandering the streets with a swollen cheek after being kicked out of his and Vox's apartment.

I think Vox would want him to look sweet and soft and also the blue is clearly a way to mark that Vox basically owns him and also also the blue glasses record everything Alastor sees so Vox can still spy if we want him to

(it's me Reni)

I couldn't stop the motivation to draw Alastor in the newest chapter in Tree of Sin. I love writing it but sometimes the urge to draw some art of my own writing hurts.
