MAINS/EXCLUSIVES & Major Canon Divergences under the cut
dni if you are homophobic, transphobic, racist, misogynist/misandrist, are an asexual/aromantic exclusionist, have an issue with neurodivergency, if you romanticize incest, or if you whitewash. I understand that this is Hell and in general it has all of these things and that they may appear in-character, but if you're like this out of character then I don’t have the patience for you.
essentially, don’t be a dick and don't be foul and we’ll be fine.

MAINS/EXCLUSIVES & Major Canon Divergences under the cut
Currently I'm still undecided on how connected to the fandom and series canon that I wish to be, so I'll simply be on the lookout for upcoming developments before making a decision. As it stands, my interpretation of alastor and how I write him will not change to fit canon unless something happens that meshes well with what I already have.
Major Canon Divergences (outside of anything to do with Angel Dust specifically)
My Alastor also does not look specifically like canon Alastor anymore, and I do have a reference sheet for him here.
My Alastor was not missing for 7 years; there was a brief point in time after his clash with Vox where Alastor left for a year or two max to investigate the nature of whatever being is holding his contract. His power had been forcefully bottlenecked and weakened during the confrontation and he retreated before he could have been killed.
My Alastor's contract is not a literal leash, rather it is a debt of souls that he is required to pay off to earn his freedom back; at least this is what he has been convinced of. This can visually manifest as the neon green glowing stitching that sometimes appears or by the same glowing strings hanging from his limbs. He's like a puppet.
The initial way he was collecting souls was as a Crossroads demon, but when they turned out to be too slow of a method he turned to clawing his way through the Overlords.
As far as Husk is concerned, Alastor largely leaves him to his own devices and only calls on him when he is cashing in a "favor" (such as helping out at the hotel with him). The actual leash is not something that is bound to Alastor directly but rather to the being holding HIS contract; Alastor does not directly own Husk's soul but Husk sure thinks that he does. Alastor is obnoxious and controlling and tends to use his reputation to get his way, but he is not outright abusive; it's all hollow threats.
He does not have the same posturing vitriol toward Lucifer as he does in canon; it's more a mild disdain stemming from his distaste for what he sees as "poor father figures"; he'd be much easier to win over than canon Alastor, but it's purely based on how Lucifer interacts with him.
Regardless of how Vox feels about Alastor NOW, when they first met and early on in their interactions Alastor was genuinely quite fond of him; one of the main reasons he's so bitter is because he felt that by evolving with the times and new technological advances, Vox was effectively leaving him behind and didn't need him anymore. Vox partnering with Valentino, someone he despises and would have absolutely been a target of his during his serial killer days, is just an additional spit in the face.
Alastor wants to tear off Val's wings and give them to Niffty for her collection.
The reason Alastor does not sleep often is because whatever ancient being is screwing with him will invade his nightmares, and he evades this by just. Not sleeping. Until he collapses. He is afraid.
UPDATE | As for the being that is holding Alastor's soul, I've come to the decision that it is Malvada, an ancient eldritch chaos being who, in Alastor's original Zoophobia canon, was Alastor's true father who abandoned Alastor in the wilds as a child simply because he did not want him. It fits in with his disdain for abusive or absentee father figures, though Alastor does not know for certain his connection to Malvada other than the creature was manipulating him through words and music, leading him down the road to becoming a killer and collector of souls. Along with being the creature that owns Alastor in one form or another, he is in fact Alastor's father/creator. He was raised as a human by a woman that found him abandoned in the woods, but he is not in fact human.
"That just sounds tedious. In my day, Adam just hunted something and roasted it over a fire until it wasn't raw anymore and ate that. Or he and Eve would have berries, nuts, those sorts of things that could be foraged easily."
"Cooking can be an art form in the right hands, as well. No one said you had to approve of it all, I can see where you're coming from. However, darling, you are the one that keeps invading the kitchen..."
"But that sounds like it would take longer, Alastor." Patience was not one of Michael's virtues and he does not have a problem with that. Why not do things the quickest and most efficiant way? "I don't think I enjoy this cooking thing. Why don't humans just eat all things raw? That is far more efficiant."
"Might take longer, but it's about the quality of the results rather than the speed of the process. Humans can't eat everything raw though, their weak little constitutions leave them getting ill frequently. So cooking has become rather necessary, and since becoming necessary it's also become just...an expectation, really."
"I've known him for over 70 years, darling, if he does any actual cooking on that cooking show I can't even assure anyone it would be edible. Could just be my trust issues talking, but still. You don't boil the apples in caramel, love. I feel like we should just spend a day in the kitchen cooking and baking together, then we can subject the residents to the results~"
"Darling, I adore you, but Vox does not cook, he just plays a chef on TV. You don't boil the caramel, you just need it to be melted enough to be able to just dip the apples in, just to coat them. You don't boil the apples in the caramel."
Hi, I do still exist. I just needed a mental break for a bit. I still log in every day and check up on everyone's lunacy, I'm just quiet. I love you guys.
