Lucifer could never stand Alastor’s attitude; but when the Radio Demon shows up at the palace, nearly dead, on extermination day, he decides that maybe he isn’t so bad after all.
or;When Alastor arrives in Lucifer’s workroom, on death’s doorstep, the conversation that ensues paves the way for a romance they never expected. Together, they put together pieces of information that reveal a nefarious scheme that poses a direct threat to Hell and makes the hotel ground zero for a new, even worse conflict.
Alternate title: The five poisons Lucifer is immune to and the one that he isn't
AKA: Alastor tries to depose his competition and Lucifer is a good sport and maybe the real poison is the friends we made along the way.
The Golden Guard has been raised in the Titan's image all his life. He has always striven to fulfill His will, as told by His Mouthpiece, his uncle. Life has not been easy, but he's never expected it to be when following the righteous path.
And then he and his uncle are captured. Separated from Belos, the Golden Guard will do whatever it takes to free him so they can return to fulfilling the Titan's will—even if it means playing along with a "therapist" and giving himself a "name" and attempting to make "friends;" he'll do whatever it takes to get their guards down.
The only problem with this plan is that he wasn't expecting to like going along with his captors.
