Summary:

Lucifer comes back changed from his ordeal in the weapon.

Alastor can't stand it. If the King of Hell can't stand on his own two feet, how is Alastor supposed to tear him down?

He tells himself he isn't helping. He's restoring what's his.

A/N: So I was initially thinking I'd take a break from Hazbin because the show accidentally triggered my trauma from my dad's very violent death in the ER some four months ago.

But then I thought... naaaaah. Let's put that trauma to better use. ^^;;;

I don't usually think of myself as the one who needs therapy. In fact I think it was mainly me who decided to drop out of therapy for several months awhile back. Our therapist has challenged me the past couple of sessions with writing and reflective assignments, and there's a surprising amount to deal with. Trauma I've been dissociated from. Issues I convinced myself were other system members' job to process. I'm not quite ready.
