really wish Alastor's reason for staying in the hotel was still purely for entertainment value (and Charlie) like in the pilot. It was a neat little subversion that for such a creepy guy with an ominous backstory that you'd expect he'd only be there for nefarious purposes but no he's just there for a good laugh (and Charlie). It also made it seem really sweet in a way that out of all the demons that saw the live interview, he was the one who saw potential in her, found her the most entertaining thing in years and it really says a lot considering he went straight for the hotel not nearly hours later, memorized her entire song from one take from the interview, recorded it for snippets of her voice to play when he was looking at the royal family portrait when his eyes dropped to her and created a whole reprise of her song to dress her up and dance with her. Pilot Alastor was so obviously smitten with her and wish he brought that goofy, infatuated energy with him in the show.
PLEEEASE pilot!charlastor is my roman empire the way alastor was so smitten with charlie and went to such lengths to just charm her ...
regardless of his ulterior motives, the fact that he really did just see one clip of charlie and immediately move in with her is canon, and they can pry that from my cold dead hands, but i absolutely love how just ... completely over the top he was with her. because alastor is a flamboyant and dramatic guy, but within his first meeting with charlie, he's bringing out all the magic. he's singing and dancing with her, he's complimenting her, he's showing an interest in her we just don't see him give anyone else. he gets her down to her core, and shows that within ten seconds of meeting her, and why wouldn't he? she's genuinely herself, even if others disdain her, with the power to be cruel and choosing instead to be kind; she's energetic and fun and prone to the same song and dance he is, and alastor must have written mrs charlie the radio demon in his notes a hundred thousand times since he met her.
