    Summary

    Summary

    “You’ve not done this before, right? Stabbed anyone, I mean.” Mr. Whittman asked a little shakily—the question already sounding answered for Alastor.

    “I have. But haven’t you? That work you made on the man’s gut wasn’t exactly good, but it wasn’t amateur enough to be your first time doing it. It’s funny how easily things work out—two friends, two murderers, two fellows out for lunch. It’s all the same, isn’t it?”

    Vincent inhaled a shaky breath and nodded, finally standing up from atop the body. He looked to Alastor—looked away—then looked back at him again. “I…I guess it is.”

    ---

    Alastor abruptly cancels an evening at the bar with Vincent to instead have a meeting with another man. Predictably, Vincent doesn't quite like being dissappointed, so he intends to do something about it.

    ...by breaking and entering. Obviously.

    Summary

    It really wasn’t important, and that was why Vox hadn’t asked. His business…acquaintance? Whatever they were was an enigma to him, another question he dared not ask, because Alastor was not a man who appreciated most of Vox’s questions.

    But day after day, the more Vox realized that in his entire time of knowing him, Alastor was really only doing one of two things, the question nagged in the back of his mind until it was sometimes the only thing he could think about during their rambling conversations.

    Besides killing people and hosting his radio broadcasts, what did Alastor even do?

    -

    In which Alastor teaches Vox how to dance and they both have feelings about it.

    Summary

    Vincent Whittman had never been the type to indulge in his most forbidden fantasies or deepest desires.

    Why should he?

    He already had everything that he could ever possibly need. The money, the fame, the women—what more could a man of his status ask for?

    He was satisfied.

    Or, at least, that’s what he had thought.

    That all changed the night he met Alastor.

    ───────

    Vincent and Alastor met in the most unlikely of places—a dingy queer bar in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania. And from the very first moment Vincent laid eyes on him, he was addicted.

    Addicted to his charm. Addicted to his voice. Addicted to his magnetic presence.

    And now that he’d had a taste—

    He wanted more.

    AKA my first attempt at writing a MurderMedia fanfic. This was originally supposed to be a oneshot, but I got a little carried away…

    Summary

    Vincent is struck with sudden adoration. He's never felt like this before. Alastor had peeled back the thin veneer of normality Vincent wears and hadn't reared back in disgust. If anything, he had driven down further, luxuriating in the unappealing, in the sickness.

    In 1934, Vincent arrives in New Orleans for his first job in television. Within a month, he begins following the every move of a local radio host. Fate guides the rest.
