    Summary

    “Alastor?” Vincent calls out more urgently. He doesn’t waste any time and swings the door open, stepping quickly into a narrow set of descending stairs. “Are you okay?”

    There’s a familiar iron tang in the air. He recognizes it well from the operating room. It’s blood and the smell thickens, permeating the air as he approaches the last step. Vincent’s heart pounds in his chest. For there to be that much blood-- he’s already rolling his sleeves up preparing for a massive injury.

    Alastor looks up at him, a furrow in his eyebrows. He’s wearing a white apron stained red. A meat cleaver in one hand. A human body laid out on the steel table in front of him, its two legs missing. The blood is still dripping. It hasn’t even started coagulating yet.

    Vincent’s breath stutters. He stares, not comprehending what this is; what he’s seeing.

    Alastor sighs and wipes his hands on his apron, setting the knife beside the body. “Oh, my dear, I wish you wouldn’t have come down here.’’
     
    Or Vox is on his way to a surgical conference and after a broken down car is picked up by a kind local to use his phone, unfortunately he stumbles across what happens in the basement.

    Summary

    New Orleans, 1926: In a world of ink, paper, and rigid social lines, 21 year old Vincent Whittman is still a shadow who’s chasing the light. A former copyboy with a grey streak in his hair and a revolutionary invention in his satchel: the future of sight and sound.
    After a brutal rejection from the city’s elite, Vincent finds an unexpected witness in Alastor: the magnetic Creole, King of Radio whose smile is as sharp as a razor and whose influence knows no bounds.
    A glass of Sazerac, a note hidden under a coaster, and a cryptic quote from Walt Whitman. Vincent wanted to change the world; Alastor might just be the one to help him burn the old one down.
    "Where do I sign?"

    Summary

    Luga just stared at him, her mask of indifference slipping into incredulity. “Sir,” she began slowly, “you are aware that those weddings are real, aren’t you?”

    “What?” Vox said, startling out of his trip down memory lane.

    Vox blinked at Luga. She didn’t blink back.

    With a growing cavern of ice freezing over the pit of his stomach, Vox said, “No, they’re not.”

    “Yes, they are.”

    ~*~

    Or: that time Vox and Alastor got drunk and had a vegas wedding, not realising it was legal.

    Summary

    When the other Vees don't show up to stop Vox, Alastor is forced to, once again, save the day himself. He offers to make Vox a deal. One martini in exchange for saving the world.

    Of course, every deal made in Hell has much more to it than what the words alone say. Their personal history with the cocktail goes back to the 1960's, a brand new sinner named Vincent getting the lay of Hell, a wide-smiling patron of the arts, and an utter refusal to ever define a relationship.

    It's a love story, if you squint.
