It would ironically help humanize Lucifer to some of the rest of humanity to see the Devil fumble in front of his crush.

Give a funny picture though the angel was the one unconcerned with nudity and it was the Demon trying to help him keep his modesty. Conservative or traditionnal people are on their knees, seeing the Devil himself resisting the Temptation and acting like a gentleman

It will! Because everyone who has ever had a crush will imagine what would happen if they were suddenly before that crush and they were wet and naked and only wearing your coat, and they're like 'oh, yeah, the devil is acting the way anyone would.'

I'm wondering, for what reason angel alastor would be summoned in that au? Vox used the pretext to kill Lucifer so he would save humanity in The Summoning, which excuse he would use in his one?

And who would come to rescue alastor? Because I don't think he would modify the Summoning circle to invoke Lucifer here

I'm inclined to think Vox just fucks up lol. He's trying to summon a demon, gets an angel - and he wouldn't need anyone to rescue him he can just...step out of the circle.

Unless somehow Vox fucks up enough that it comes right back around and ends up successfully binding Alastor, in which case, depending on whether this is father or mother verse Alastor, things might go differently.

How does Mother verse Lucifer feel about Alastor treating him like before the apple (more or less, if he isn't provoking him like in the original timeline), teasing him, being cordial even though his other siblings either hate him, fear him or ignore him

Eh, if he was summoned naked, I bet Lucifer would use his wibgs to cover him or lend him his coat

Probably all wibbly - here is the most hated being in creation, and one of the people he loves doesn't hate him, is still happy to see him, asked for him to come help him - and oh no he's naked and ALASTOR doesn't realise thatHs not good/care but he does! here he'll just lend you his coat and oh no now Alastor is not just tall and pretty and naked and wet he is all those things while wearing Lucifer's coat.

And the nanny is not anyone! He's the famous(/infamous?) last known victim of the But her of the bayou so more and more people will inquire about him to try and understand why the Devil himself entrusted his daughter to him, not knowing it was Lilith who chose him

To be fair, it was actually ALASTOR who decided to be the Nanny!

And they will assume they know why when said Nanny starts growing and getting tendrils and the green light starts glowing as he kicks all their asses for DARING to come after Charlie.

People start doing research on Alastor, and the Butcher, and forming opinions and theories...

In the AU Alastor and Even have children together, there would be cults, group of right activists calling themselves/being called The Descendants of Alastor or something instead of Children of Adam, like it's a badge of honor

Imagine Bible zealots and racists face if Alastor shows himself as "PoC" (technically because he comes from time before discrimination of colour exist) and contradicting gender roles depending on which time period he appears before them.

Like before the nazi, pink was seen as a masculine colour and blue a feminine colour, and when pink became more popular with women, it was seen as a girly colour, and Alastor would offend their 'sensibilies' as pink is one of his main colours as angel

Even in the main verse where Alastor doesn't marry/have kids, there are probably cults and people claiming to be descended from him! And it would absolutely offend them - ooh, now I'm imagining an AU of the Summoning where Seraphim!Alastor is the one summoned.

[kitsunesongs]

I reread your canon-divergence story for Expired where Charlie and Alastor get summoned and I was thinking about how different it would be if it happened in double entry. With Alastor in heaven, he could be the one to calm down Lucifer.

Honestly, I daydreamed a whole mother-verse idea Alastor and Lucifer come down together because Lilith got summoned with Charlie, and Alastor looks at them and is like "Darlings, that circle prevents demons from leaving or entering. You, Charlie, were born to an angel and a human, and Lilith, you literally never died. Neither of you are demons. You can step right out of that circle."

And this Angel Alastor has spent like 10,000 years being bored in Heaven so while he DOES prevent Lucifer and Michael from slaughtering a guy on live TV, he would be like "punish him in a way that feels like a nightmare to him, but for outsiders watching, looks like entertainment. Give the kids at home a show!"

And Lucifer, dressed as a literal circus ringmaster, is like "OH I know EXACTLY what to do!" And just reality bends everything so that they're now in a circus tent, the cultists are dressed up like circus performers, their masks are gone, and the hostages are sitting down in nice seats watching the show as Lucifer begins announcing the performance. Gabriel getting behind the cameras like oh I gotta make this a cinematic masterpiece, this looks like it's gonna be FUN.

Lucifer picks up head cultist Vox by the ankle and flies up into the sky, and is like "Alright folks, for our opening act! Watch, as I guide my not-so-lovely and unwilling volunteer, blindfolded through three dangerous trials! First, the path of snakes! Presenting a path teeming with some of the most venomous animals known to the living, such as the Black Mamba, the Boomslang, the King Viper, and more!"

"Second, the den of jaguars! Now, I know lions are a classic, folks, but do keep in mind that jaguars have the strongest bite force of any wild cat on earth! Not only that, unlike lions, they're solitary and independent hunters— I imagine they're not too thrilled to be stuck together in the same cage! All my volunteer needs to do is walk in, feed each individual jaguar, and walk out!"

"And lastly, our final trial is simple! I'm sure you've all hear of this one before— the tightrope! Forty feet high, no safety net, and blindfolded, my volunteer will need to hold a pole with two filled water buckets on either end, and walk from one end of the rope to the other without spilling! Here's hoping he can keep his balance!"

My daydream ended with Vox falling on the third trial, and when he hit the ground, the ground transformed into basically a bounce house floor and he just sort of bounced a couple times while screaming his head off. Confetti popping into the air the second he met the ground.

I was just enamored with the idea of Lucifer punishing these murderous cultists on live television for the world to see (in a child-friendly way because the first man asked him to,) and it's just a genuinely fun and exciting circus performance for the people watching, while being a genuine psychological nightmare for the cultists.

I love this. This is absolutely what would happen, Alastor and Lilith and Charlie and Emily and Sera and Adam and Cain and Abel and Eve (yeah, Cain is in heaven in motherverse and so is Eve because that's the good timeline okay I don't make the rules Alastor saved them all from themselves) and Michael and the other Seraphim bar Gabriel who is broadcasting the whole thing and also the Exorcists who have never been to a circus before and they are eating popcorn and peanuts and drinking sodas and so is Jonah cause Alastor found them and got there in time to save him because no dead kids in my fics and they're having a great time.

The cultists are not having a great time but nobody cares about them.

Lucifer swings between being the ringmaster torturing Vox and the cultists and being the magician with the sexy assistant (Lilith) who calls for an audience member (Alastor) and they flirt wildly with him as they cut Vox in half, and then they go back to the circus acts. Alastor and Emily and Charlie get to pet the jaguars, and with Alastor there they are able to have Jonah pet them too.

Sooo... in the summoning AU, tied with the idea that Father-verse Alastor is able to kill Adam without even intending to because of a protective rage. I want Alastor to rip out some cultist throats for trying to murder a child in his presence. I want the world to see The First Man commit murder on live television because some cultists went too far. And I want Alastor to be totally unaffected by his actions. (This the Father-verse AU where Adam was brought back to life after Alastor killed him, not the one where he got his memories erased. Perhaps he recognizes Vox and is very grimly satisfied with being the one to end him.)

So, it would take a lot for Alastor to be able to even attack someone in Double Entry - he hasn't eaten the apple, he can't sin, and that means he can't do deliberate violence, even to defend himself, which is gonna cause him a LOT of problems later on. Key word there being deliberate. He killed Adam on pure instinct, with no thinking involved, and it sort of short circuited the lack of free will - so I think, if he saw Jonah dying, he'd heal him, but he wouldn't be driven to such mindless protective rage over someone hurting/killing a random child as he was over Cain because that was hurting ALASTOR'S CHILD and the mama bear instincts took over.

What he could and WOULD do is - just leave the circle. Heal Jonah, change the weapons of the cultists to flowers, step out of the circle, and just...SMILE at Vox. Whatcha gonna do now, old pal?

If the camera hasn't been tempered and modified to have colours, they can try to get away in whitewashing Alastor.

Alastor descend himself to correct and punish them

Alastor may have been forced to pass as white at time for his own safety, and for a job, but now he doesn't have to? There will be NO whitewashing he will ABSOLUTELY show up himself and snap at anyone who tries.
