Summary
Vincent’s problem was always the same: he wants.
He wants, he wants, he wants. And no amount of getting or receiving will ever change that fact, will ever close the cavern inside of him that always wants more. Getting is secondary, underwhelming in comparison to the thrill of wanting. Of chasing. When he found something he wanted, he pursued it single-mindedly. He made a plan, he pulled his strings, he put every piece of the puzzle into place. That was when he was on top of the world. Receiving his prize was little more than a participation trophy, and by the time he got it he had usually already found another want. Want, want, want.
Sometimes, at night, he wondered if his luck would run out, and when. What happened when he met someone he couldn’t charm or bully into giving him what he wanted? Who was immune to his silver tongue, his clever quips, his flashy smile or a flirtatious bat of his mismatched eyes? What happened when he took a risk that didn’t pay off?
When Vincent takes a spring break trip to New Orleans to celebrate his upcoming college graduation, he may just find the answer to that question where he least expects it.
And it will alter the course of his life forever.

Summary
It wasn't the first time Alastor was trying to establish communication with the other side; he was a master at it by now. He had tried many times, with different sigils and rituals, but all of them had left him with empty hands. He just wanted to be able to make a deal so he could enjoy his afterlife, but instead, he ended up summoning a demon that is oddly fixated on him.
Or Alastor accidentally summons Vox for his deal, and now he has to deal with him.

Summary
My first podfic! I have a deep love of Rustycookies's fic called STATIC (a MurderMedia 1930's AU) and wanted to share that love with as many people as possible by recording it.
NEXT UPDATE: Sunday July 19th 2026
---Original fic Summary---
1933. New Orleans.
Vincent Whittman’s assignment (punishment) seems simple enough: recruit Mr. Alastor Hartfelt, the city’s famed radio star.
But his trip derails the moment he meets the man dressed in a smile too sharp, with secrets too deep, and a presence that hums with something far beyond him.
One broken ritual binds them for decades, pulling them back to each other again and again, to the one soul neither can quite break away from.Bookmarked by thebanddied

Summary
The wound on Alastor’s chest becomes badly infected and he’s unable to manage the pain even with drugs and alcohol. It gets to the point of him passing out in one of the hotel’s public spaces, unable to recover before he’s discovered by Charlie. Charlie drags Lucifer to Alastor’s side and tearfully begs Lucifer to save him. She’s having flashbacks to Pentious’s death and is terrified Lucifer might refuse out of spite towards Alastor and she just can’t lose another friend, she can’t!
Lucifer was never going to refuse, but the desperation and fear in his little girl’s voice breaks his heart all the same. Sure, he has his problems with the guy, but he wasn’t going to just leave Alastor for double dead. Who would he argue with over his morning coffee then? He overcompensates, just a tad, using his magic to not only mend the flesh but purge all foreign elements from the Sinner’s body…
Leaving behind a stranger with Alastor’s face and voice, but none of his demonic traits or abilities. Or memories.

Summary
In 1933 Alastor manages to summon a demon with a rectangular, glowing head who keeps staring at him like he can't decide between tearing him apart and worshipping him at his feet.
Meanwhile, Vox just blew up himself and the entire universe and suddenly stands before a second chance. He simply has no idea what that second chance entails.
In other words: The demon Vox and human Alastor time travel roadtrip fic that spiralled and suddenly gained a plot

A crash of two different worlds that shouldn't have crossed in the first place; or what happens when you force the walking moral compass of an angel to be the caretaker of the devil himself. Definitely not something that screams "happy ending".

Summary
Coyle tips your chin up with the blunt edge of his cattle-prod, its end still warm with the afterglow of electricity.
The leather of his jacket flexes as he braces one heavy boot atop your crumpled chest. The soulless, black lenses of his aviators betraying nothing.
“Ain’t no use fightin’ it,” he drawls in a thick, hungry purr. And it feels that his eyes stroke down your shape. Taking it all in. Fucking starving for it. “You're my whore in need’uh judgement, now. Been a bad dog, gone ‘n pissed me off.”
He sucks a charred drag from his cig, its ember burned across his lenses.
“Gonna have you pleadin’ fer mercy ‘fore I'm done.”
reader's gender is not specified ❤︎ names like 'whore', 'honey' and 'bad dog' are used

Summary
“I know you’re still adjusting,” he said, dropping to one knee again. “But our model is perfection and I can’t tolerate mistakes like that. This is what it takes to be a Vee.”
“I’m not. A Vee,” Alastor spat.
Vox chuckled. “You are now. The sooner you accept that, Al, the better off you’ll be.”
>───⇌••⇋───<
After years of servitude, there were only two options Alastor saw for himself: 1) being bound to his jailor forever, or 2) breaking his contract and finally being free.
He hadn't accounted for a third option.

“You Gods love playing games, don’t you?" Odysseus had a wild spark in his eyes. “Then let’s play, Poseidon. First one to beg loses. If I win, you let me go free. If you win, I'll stay your prisoner, and you can do whatever the hell you want with me.”
Poseidon stared at Odysseus for a long moment, and in an instant something finally clicked into place.
“You’re crazy, aren’t you?” Poseidon realized.

Summary
Odysseus, a grieving man, sets out to uncover the truth behind his family’s tragedy. Thalassinos - Poseidon cloaked in human skin - offers his aid, not out of kindness, but to witness the fall of the clever king once more. What seems to be a simple case turns out to be far more twisted than they anticipated. The deeper they dug, the more they descended into a maze of lies, strange coincidences, and blurred lines between present crimes and past sins. A past Odysseus has yet to remember...

Until one faithful evening; where he met an old foe, whom may be his friend now.

Though it has been years since he contacted Athena, or seen Hermes, or anyone for that matter, he knows it is this or nothing.
He forces his mouth open and with his remaining sanity he calls out,
“Poseidon!”
Wait, what?
_Odysseus decides to call out to Athena for help, but the name that leaves his mouth instead makes his head spin.

Summary
Something terrible happened to Alastor in his human life and when he wakes up in Hell, he finds himself as prey for the vicious sinners around him. Desperate, he makes a deal he comes to regret.
Vox is fascinated by the deadly, untouchable Radio Demon and somehow manages to charm the man who initially wanted his head. They strike up a friendship that leads to some fluttery feelings on both ends, but before anything can develop, Alastor's deal (and a certain moth-demon) cause complications.
Misunderstandings and broken hearts ensue, and a blossoming romance sours into something messy and hateful.
And then Alastor disappears for 7 years. When he returns, his fight with Adam leaves him wounded and vulnerable, and Vox decides that it's time to put an end to the man who destroyed both his heart and his afterlife.
But his complicated feelings for Alastor won't let him end his life and it turns out that they miss each other more than either of them realised. Can they salvage the ashes of their relationship, or will Valentino and questionable deals destroy them both?
