As much as I love Canon!Alastor being Justice-adjacent as a character, what if AU!Alastor was like Patience-adjacent as an opposite for his possibly canon sin of Wrath?

Maybe Alastor and his mother switch personalities?

Amelie is a single “widowed” mother with an ever present smile. She’s the belle of New Orleans music scene and a secret serial killer disposing of very bad people to make the world safer for her son.

Alastor is her gentle and loving son who too pure for the world. He idolises his mother and like her overcame many difficulties to become the most popular voice on radio. He is an figurative angel on Earth.

Hmmm, if we're going for opposite of Wrath, what if rather than the Angel of Justice he was the Angel of Mercy?

It could also come with darker implications and provide a reason for Alastor to believe he belongs in Hell; what if Alastor had killed once during the war, a friend and fellow soldier who was beyond saving, and so he chose to put him out of his misery? In Alastor's mind, he may have killed with good intentions, but it was still an unforgivable sin.

So imagine his shock when years later he dies and wakes up in Heaven! Doubly so when he realises that his maman is not up there too! Clearly, something is wrong here, he decides, and somehow he uses his radio frequencies to connect to Hell, and either Rosie, Roo or Roosie answer before forging a deal to get to Hell.

Ooh, for extra fun, what if he hides his angelic status in plain sight by claiming to be a Periton Sinner?
