"O-ho!"

The exclamation mixed with a laugh is interrupted by a twitch of his features---a small glitch on the flatscreen. Even at his most composed, he's never been unaffected by Alastor.

"I've been celebrating, alright! Of course, I would have celebrated more if you'd been less of a coward---but hey! Seeing you look that close to pissing yourself was a fine substitute." Vox is already getting worked up, but presentation isn't exactly his main concern right now. An affront to his well-crafted image is much less damning than not meeting Alastor where he stands. "Just one note---next time, you could stand to be a little more considerate and actually die."

The mixture of frustration and enthusiasm is genuine in spite of the fact that Vox would rather keep Alastor alive, the distortion in his voice rearing up in tandem with the smorgasbord of feelings that can't decide which of them is the most important. But Vox can't make that decision, either---he just doesn't bother.

"Either that or stop wasting my time."

Whether or not he upholds the day's schedule is something that remains entirely within Vox's jurisdiction; he'd only have to cut their conversation short. But he hasn't moved an inch.

It was a beautiful sight to watch Alastor come to in his trap. He watched in ecstasy as first pain registered in the demon, followed by a slow realization of where he was. It was absolutely delicious to watch him feebly struggle against the cables that bound him, his deep red claws useless against them. Perhaps more so was that when Alastor spoke, the filter to his voice was barely present, and fuck if that wasn't a turn on. He could hear the damn bastard himself!

He didn't hold back laughter as he strolled forward, triumph radiating with every step he took. "Why, it looks like you're finally caught, Al." He moved into his space, bending forward slightly to bring him eye level with the radio demon. "Looks like you're not as strong as you thought you were, dear old friend." He wanted to rub it in. Make sure Alastor knew that this time, he lost. He was at Vox's mercy and the thought of everything he wanted to do to him already had him drooling at his mouth.

He straightened up and carelessly reached for the bowtie around Alastor's neck, loosening it for him. "I thought it was time for us to catch up. There's so very much I'd like to do-- I mean, talk to you about." He tossed the bowtie aside, not caring where it landed on the floor of the control room.

Just for good measure, to reiterate there was no way for Alastor to escape this trap, he sank his claws straight into one of his shoulders. He pierced them through the fabric of his shirt, sinking them in as deep as they would reach and curled them in his flesh to elicit as much pain as possible. He leaned forward again to whisper in his ear, "Keep smiling, Al. You're being recorded." Sure enough, there was a blinking red light coming from one of the many televisions in the room as proof of a recording taking place.

Everything hurt! Slowly, he could feel himself coming back to reality. His body felt like I had been beaten, tossed around a few times, and then ran over. Ear tuffs giving the littlest of wiggles, claws moving ever so slightly, and eyes fluttering open. His perception wasn't quite there yet, while he waited for his eyes to focus again. What happened?

A soft groan escaped from his lips as he tried to move, but quickly realized he wasn't moving. Even with his clouded view, the demon could make the blue lights. Vox. Fuck! How could he forget about Vox?! Everything started to come more into view. The bright lights from the monitors around him, the silhouette of the insufferable prick.

Red eyes glew dangerously amongst the rest of the room, narrowing towards the issue in the room. His body screamed at him to do something, anything, while it still had a bit of daze to it from the left over electrical charges. Not to mention the dried lines of blood left from Vox's claws earlier. Gathering up the will to struggle, it got him no where. His own claws digits wrapped around the cables, trying to pull them down with the strength he had. Once again, it got him no where.

"What is the meaning of this?" His voice only having a hint of his filter to it, surprising even himself. "VOX, what have you d̶͍̼̠̗͌͊̾͌̈͜ő̴͔͕̦̫̄̒̈́̔͜͝n̴̨̎̔͑͑͗ē̷̡̧̠͉̝̏͝?" Panic slowly setting in a little more, looking around the room, seeing his coat thrown to the side, but his staff no where to be found. The cat and mouse game suddenly became real. His powers being suppressed coupled with the fact, the one way he was able to hide himself wasn't working how it normally did spelled trouble. His eyes turned to all the screens in front of him as his ear tuffs flattened against his head.

So in my “will-i-won’t-i” with Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss (where I procrastinate and don’t watch the shows and only absorb the content through TikTok, Tumblr and sometimes Twitter) I came across Staticmoth/ VoxVal.

I saw the scene with Angel and Valentino. His abuse and disgusting behavior. I have an idea on how this moth asshole behaves.

And I have seen some people think that their relationship would be toxic, that Vox and Val, if the predictions are correct and become (or are revealed to be) a couple, would beat the shit (physically, mentally and emotionally) out of each other on the regular, but I think the idea that him and Vox having a healthy relationship could be such a punch to the gut plot wise.

Because that would mean Valentino IS capable of understanding consent. He KNOWS what working with someone else means without disrespect. He FULLY knows what sex is supposed to be like.

But that’s is between equals. Vox? His equal. Fellow overlord.

Angel? His property. Why would he give a shit about his thing?

"So the Radio Guy's back. I don't think you noticed, I didn't at first. I was too busy being a much more interesting and important person. But fuck it, news is slow today I guess. I'm totally not worried about this guy and neither should you be. I totally wrecked his shit."

ALASTOR SKETCH DUMP WITH A DASH OF STATICRADIO

[boundlss]

"Hahahaha---if I want to know something? Good one! Whew, fuck, Alastor, you re-eally got me good there!"

Vox makes a show of his reaction the same way he makes a show of everything that isn't Alastor---by plastering the cold distance of corporate feeling over the top of it. Everything from the smug, superior way he crosses his arms to the distance he keeps is deliberate.

There are some things he can't control, but if Alastor is going to keep toying with him like this, then Vox isn't going to give him more than he has to.

"You can't hide anything from me. I don't care what you think the price is. I'LL FIGURE YOUR SHIT OUT." When it begins to border on hysterical, he reels himself back in. "Or, sure, you can keep living in your make-believe world where I'm not capable of digging up any patch of dirt you think you can keep secret."

"That depends on what exactly you're here for---but, seeing as you haven't told me that yet..." Vox trails off dismissively, pretending to be looking at something important on his phone. "... Just keeping the entire news and entertainment industry in Pentagram City running smoothly, why do you ask?"

Vox isn't as uninterested as he feigns being, of course, in Lucifer. Nor is he as unintimidated, but there's absolutely nothing that kills a good negotiation faster than letting the opposition know there's some way in which he has the upper hand. Not even the King of Hell should be an exception to that steadfast rule of business.

"Normally I'd tell you to make an appointment if you have something to discuss with me, but it must be important if someone of your station is showing up unannounced like this."

"I wouldn't date the Radio Dickhead if he was the last man in Pride."

Yes he would. Radio Dickhead would be his first choice. But he'll never admit that.

[countlessrealities]

"Alright, I fucking missed the horny day because someone kept me elsewhere all day, so...C'mon, this is Hell. There must be someone who's horny around here."

To sum it up, jump his bones. Or frames. Or cables. Whatever. Just do it.

"It seems to be a pass time for people here." Kaoru mused, gaze never leaving his book. The calligrapher may complain about Joe, but he tries not to complain at anything that he can't control.

"Oh, for Satan's sake. I am so fucking tired of the whining that is going on in the city." Vox groaned. "If I wanted to watch people bitch and moan, i'd watch reality tv, or gossip girl."

TLoVM epsiodes 4-6 - my initial thoughts (and theories?)

Allura calling out Perc'ahlia bullshit is primo

ZERXUS!!!

AWWW MY CALAMITY BABIES

Pike is and always will be a badass

Trickfoot mention! The Scan Man knows her family’s name reasoning? Interesting…

Yes! It’s the power of love that shakes folks every time, Pike. Get him with that family talk! (Zerxus I’m so sad!!)

What do YOU MEAN, Zerxus????? She has no idea what courses through her veins??

Yenk “his ascension???” THE WHISPERED ONE?!?! Are they connecting Zerxus to him???? (*takes out conspiracy theory board and connects red strings*)

Kima and Allura so cute and couple goals tbh

Aw their flashback- antagonistic allies to lovers is a great story!

Oh this FWB percahlia thing is gonna hurt so bad

The tree bursting from Vorugal!! Yay C1 Easter egg!

Vex and Percy being cute (idiots)

I knew it- the key is his “mansion”

Chateau beach episode?

Keyfish! C1 watchers knowww

Yes the bathtub scene lmao

Vaxleth is still pain - I’m pouring one out for the shippers (we can make it through!)

Aw Percy and Vex pillow talk and future talk (idiots- you are each other’s future)

Pikelan hug! Cuties!

Oh we’re so getting bard's lament this season

Whitestone attack !!! So soon?

Why has no one noticed Scanlan missing???? Omg this is gonna be important for later

Sun tree!! Noo!!!

(Side note: what if? What if??? Percy’s resurrection is only possible bc of The Dawn Father and that’s how Vex gets linked to The Dawn Father?? )

Yeah we’re so getting “Glintshore” at the end of ep 7 (bc of interviews hint and Ripley giving up Whitestone's location)

(Side note- what if Pike stays behind in Whitestone to wait for Scanlan when the rest of the team hunts down Ripley (or a smaller team) and that’s how we cannot get his resurrection right away? Or the hints being dropped about pikes faith being shaken? She’ll be unable to resurrect him?)

Yes we get a Raishan confrontation! Angry Kiki is best Kiki

Percy’s fear of losing Whitestone again (valid and this is totally setting up true love’s natural 20 “Whitestone still needs you”)

Percy determined to end Ripley…it’s episode 7 y’all it’s gotta be. Glintshore is coming…

OHHH AWWW Wasn’t someone [@ crithaus, not tagging I know who it is i just!! dont wanna spoil] JUST talking about us needing more art of Vex wearing tiaras?? awwwww how -

MOTHERFUCKER

NOOOOO NOT MY BABY GIRL LITTLE SWEET TINY VEX NOOOO

[crithaus]

Vax bc Liam cannot methinks help being extremely gay all the time, is the one to bring up elaina most often in far more humanizing terms which is par for the course because he brings her up so often

And vex doesn't much besides responding to Vax or the iconic "do you think this is what mother saw before she died?" and I got to wonder how often she just sits there at this tavern or that stump on her watch especially early on thinking about her and how proud or not Eli'd be of her. Like obviously Vex doesn't like herself at the beginning, she's greedy and mean and callous and had killed innocent people and is selfish and everyone but Vax expects that of her and they don't really care, but at the end of the day she's not just effortlessly good all the time like keyleth, who doesn't even have the decency to struggle at being good and kind and flush with likeable traits,

That's what syldor had wanted of her ofc, what she failed to bring him, so naturally he wishes she was a spot he could just bleach out, so then what would elaina think after all that hard work and sacrifice and the hope she'd had for the better life she and Vax would have with their father, if she knew vex had not only not lived up to anyone's expectations but had done worse

oh I bet it eats her up thinking about the possibility that elaina would be so deeply disappointed ohhh
