After the battle with Heaven, Alastor is left with a wound unlike anything he's experienced before. As his condition worsens, he's forced to confront something he's spent his entire existence avoiding: accepting help.
Lucifer has been alone since his fall from Heaven, made worse by Lilith and Charlie leaving. Unexpectedly, he finds comfort in one of Hell's most feared Overlords.
As Alastor and Lucifer become increasingly intertwined, they'll have to decide whether to keep hiding behind the defenses that kept them alive, or risk letting someone else see what's underneath.
Two stubborn demons. An unreasonable amount of banter. Questionable decisions. And, eventually, learning what it means to let someone stay.
This fic contains my own interpretations of the characters, identities, relationships, and mental health. Not everything follows canon, and that's intentional.
Alastor: Asexual, not aromantic. PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, and trichotillomania.
Lucifer: Bisexual. PTSD, ASD, and OCD.
These are fictional interpretations and are not intended to represent everyone's experience.
Contains: injury, anxiety/panic attacks, brief domestic violence and child abuse, M/M, F/F, fluff, angst, banter, and Hazbin Hotel characters.
⚠️ IMPORTANT FOR RETURNING READERS
This story began in 2024, and a LOT has changed since then. I've rewritten and reworked major parts of the plot, characters, and Alastor and Lucifer's relationship. Please reread the previous chapters before continuing!
