    Summary

    Charlie isn't sure how she hasn't noticed it before, but now that she's seen it, it is so obvious : Alastor is in love.

    She decides to play matchmaker.

    As always, her ability to believe the best in people is both her greatest strength and her greatest weakness.

    Her matchmaking attempts lead to a cascading series of events, with opposing agendas and unintended consequences, which are often comical and sometimes serious.

    Summary

    After his successful rally, it's brought to Vox's attention that his approval rating is much lower than he thought. Hellborn outnumber Sinners to a significant degree and could easily overwhelm the entire realm should they choose to. The divide between the two groups guarantees that they won't listen to anything the Vee's tell them, and they don't care enough about the threat of Heaven to join the fight. However, they do care about one individual: Their King, Lucifer Morningstar. With the threat of losing to either Heaven or the denizens of Hell, Vox has to change course to get his throne. He just needs to give them a common enemy, someone to bring the rage out of both groups to unite them behind him.

    After all, there's more than one way to become a king.

    Or: Charlie messes up and desperately wants to fix things. Lucifer suffers from the repercussions of her actions. Vox accidentally becomes obsessed with the man he's trying to manipulate, and Alastor realizes he may actually have feelings. Not that he'll ever admit to them.

    Summary

    They beat Vox. They stopped his weapon. They saved Heaven and Hell.

    But there are still consequences to his actions. His, and Charlie's. Her father was hurt badly by the weapon, and no matter what she does, he won't wake up. She may have to face the fact that he could die, and the very last thing she'll ever have told him is to go away because he fucked things up for her enough.

    No. She refuses to accept that. She's going to make things better. No matter what it takes.

    Summary

    It’s… not like he wasn’t used to Alastor by now, in general. They had been around each other constantly since Mimzy’s club, dodging reporters from those Vees together, stamping out some reactionaries that came to attack after word got out and Alastor’s interview of him was broadcasted, fielding questions and concerns from Charlie… The shared spaces of the hotel were their shared spaces, and where they used to prod each other or avoid each other like the plague, they now hovered. Lingered a little longer before the inevitable bickering set back in. Righted the world into what it should be.

    But it was never this.
