✧˚. Somewhere to put all of my Helluva Boss/Hazbin Hotel gripes. And yes I'm inlcuding my little ocs, who will stop me?? VIV???˚.✧

Hey y'all, I'm Neela. I go by any pronouns (including it/its and any neos) and I'm a 22 year old aspiring writer!
Lets get something out of the way really quick, this is really just for fun and I'm not saying that the original shows are abysmal dogshit. What I am saying is that, to me, I am disappointed in both shows to some degree. IT IS SO FINE if you don't agree with me! Again, this is all in good fun and a personal exercise for me in my art/writing skills.
Nothing here is meant to devalue the work people have put into Hazbin or Helluva Boss, it's all just my take on things. Besides, I'm including my own silly little guys in certain parts of the rewrite.
WITH THAT OUT OF THE WAY- My favorite characters from Helluva Boss are Mammon, Fizz, and Stella and my favorites from Hazbin are Lute, Adam, and Charlie!

I am SO sick right now (give it up for day 14) but I am so unhappy with so many of my designs on here now. My art already looks so different and when I get better I fear I will have to restrain myself from starting over lmao
Very excited to tell y’all I’m opening commissions soon! And that my Vaggie, Velvet and Valentino designs are coming along really well!!! And I got a new! Working! Tablet! So production should go faster than when I was working with the mostly broken one! Yahoo!
At some point in my exhausted rambles I contradicted myself, final answer? Eve DID have to go through most of Charlie's pregnancy but Lucifer sorta hand waved the birth. He mostly did this for brownie points/to manipulate Eve.
CHAT I HAVE RETURNED LOOK AT MY LITTLE FELLERS!!! I actually really dislike Alastor's Big Demonic form but that's neither here nor there. I'll remake it soon I'm sure. (lie)

Okay, I've been putting off this post a bit just due to how little information we have on how Sinners work. Regardless, I do like how these two came out! So we'll start with the less heavy and much more anticipated Alastor!
For changes, I wanted to make him look more clearly mixed. It wouldn't be an issue of him being white-passing if there was more thought put into it (or if we had more diverse rep in the main cast) but I wanted to bring in more traits that represented that side while keeping his general vibe. So I made him have slightly darker skin/fur, wavy + darker hair to just get the idea across. I also put little radio-wave like streaks in his hair and stuck some antenna-antlers on his head. Other than that I kept his vibe much the same, very dapper dan and ALWAYS cheesing. I decided to pull the red out of him and make him entirely Sepia tone, just to make him really stand out against the world around him. I also just generally gave him more waist to work with, I think he deserves that much.
Power wise I kept him at the same scale, probably less summoning and much more brute force. As much as I like Alastor's air of control, I wanted him to really let loose. Get scary. He's a cannibal, have him eat some mfers more often. I think any important fights he will default to this scary, out of control monster, which again I will probably rework because I'm not satisfied with his current look. I like the idea that he normally just dances around people and uses his words until he has no choice, ideally instead of summoning people to fix/help the hotel, it's entirely Husk and Nifty's job.
I would also generally make Alastor a bigger deal among his peers/other overlords, they constantly undercut him for The Bit and its detrimental to him feeling like a character we should worry about. Alastor should have a larger presence in general, it SHOULD be a huge deal that he's back after seven years, esp if he's never taken a break like this. Other than that, I like his writing okay. I think he responds to things as he should and I like him getting humbled in the final act of season one.
As for Nifty, I have a lot of thoughts on her. For one I wanted to make her look a little less child-like, so I generally made her head smaller and gave her wider proportions. I love love love bugs so I didn't mind her original design, just wanted to lean into that a bit more. I based her look off of a damsel bug! I gave her these little wings on her hips that more so serve as a way to fall slowly or get a small jump boost that I really enjoy for her movement. I also gave her two antennae that are sorta droopy and slicked back. I also greenified her, specifically I wanted to use a lot of Scheele's green! Scheele's green used a lot of arsenic and copper in its base, which was wildly poisonous. I wanted to allude to her home life with her husband when she was alive being, ya know, toxic. I also powdered her whole design with asbestos. I wanted to keep her hopeless romantic bit, so I mixed in a bunch of soft elements into her outfit, while trying to hide the sharper parts under them (for the most part).
As for her personality, I think she stays much the same. Acts much less like how she does in Episode 6, when she's drunk and acting particularly childish in a way that... does not sit right. I think she's unhinged as she always is but maybe with hints of clarity around Alastor, who I think she sold her soul to willingly for protection.
This is where the Content Warning comes in! And it honestly is something I'm not too comfortable writing but I'll give the long and short of my ideas.
Nifty's past is full of pure 1950s tragedy. She grew up in a small town, worked at a diner for a stint, got with her high school sweetheart (she was a Sophomore and he was Senior), and eloped before she graduated. Couldn't seem to get pregnant, forced to move away from her family and in with her husband two towns over, her husband ends up being horrific (unshocking) and a slob. Nifty becomes obsessed with fixing messes around the house, honestly gets really good with mechanical things that she feels she shouldn't be good with, over the course of two years she's becoming less stable. A family history of "female hysteria" starts to really show it's hand in her behavior, until one day she finds her husband cheating on her with what is essentially a high schooler when they're both about 24-25. So naturally, she puts cough meds in his whiskey sour, stabs him repeatedly when he's half asleep, then kills herself by locking herself in the bathroom and drinking bleach.
I think Nifty adjusted really slowly to hell, very much easily taken advantage of and scared despite not entirely showing it. She hears Alastor on the radio in his prime and I think seeks him out for protection in exchange for service. The happy ending to this is that I think they genuinely become friends very quickly. :)
I WOULD talk about Alastor's past but I've seen Spoilers and I do want to see where they go before I expand on my version, but I'm confident we won't get much Nifty development.
Also the Height Chart was getting too big so I had to start separating them... WOE! MISERY!
Moving onto the Hazbin Hotel cast and ALL OF THAT soon! But I’m tempted to do more Heaven things, like make Saint Peter a furry and not white. And draw Lute.
Would Adam really hurt Eve? He loved her enough to leave the Garden untainted.. surely he searches for his love even after all this time?
Oh absolutely not. Regardless of how she’s changed he doesn’t have the heart for it. That’s his girl. That’s his wife. That’s his best friend. He could never do that.
However, that’s harder for Eve to understand after all of these years. Because what if he doesn’t forgive her for killing Cain? For leaving him alone? What if he found out that she slept with Lucifer? She doesn’t want to take the risk.
