Welll........ Alastor warned you, Vox

[zaebeecee]

I see so much RadioStatic backstory of “they were friends but Alastor broke Vox’s heart” but I would like you to consider:

Vox, soon after his death and feeling lost and disconnected, seeking out other sinners with an interest in the only connecting point he has to others, media.

And, in doing so, he goes out of his way to make the acquaintance of the Radio Demon, the only overlord who seems to have the same passion for entertainment that Vox does himself.

And Alastor does not get approached by anyone, because everyone is terrified of him; his only real connection since his own death has been Rosie, and they bonded over cannibalism, not the art of entertainment.

But Vox wants to make his acquaintance, Vox wants to talk shop with him, and Alastor finally has someone with whom he can discuss storytelling and evolutions in broadcasting technology, someone he can stay up with all night who appreciates rye as much as he does and who listens to his infodumping with real rapt attention and who does his own infodumping in a way that Alastor finds compelling.

Alastor tells Vox all about what it was like during the birth and rise of radio and what it was like to run a radio program back during a time when it was the hot new thing.

And Vox teaches Alastor about television, and about writing serialized scripts meant to be seen and heard, and about filming and audio recording and costuming and set design.

And Alastor is subversive and forward-thinking, and he loves television; he loves seeing what beautiful and visual things can be done with the serialized stories he always loved writing for his radio program.

Vox is someone Alastor readily calls his friend.

But Vox is a capitalist, above all else, willing to throw away his artistic integrity and smother his own creativity in his eagerness to chase whatever is new because it is new, and Alastor watches that bright spark that had drawn him to Vox become buried under the weight of corporate greed.

And when Vox asks Alastor to join him, Alastor says no, because the Vox who asked for his partnership was not the same man that Alastor sat up all night with so many years, he was not the same man that Alastor wrote ridiculous scripts with, he was not the same man who approached Alastor without a hint of fear flickering on his screen and introduced himself with a cautious smile and a sincere compliment for his last broadcast.

Alastor says no, because this man is not his Vox; this man, instead, murdered his Vox and is wearing his skin like a grotesque costume.

Alastor says he hates television, because television reminds him of a time he almost permitted himself vulnerability, and can’t admit that it destroyed him.

What if, instead, Vox was the one who broke Alastor’s heart?

Author: MrAprilFools @mraprilfools CW: Period-typical Racism, Animal Abuse, Child Abuse, Graphic depictions of insects, F slur Summary: A story about Alastor's beginning's and how he ended up with the chain around his neck. In the confines of a prison he meets a devil, a god, or something else entirely that offers a deal too good to be true...

[sons-of-valentino-au]

I bet Alastor would take a sex slang literally...

Stayed gone but vox narrates his passive aggressive insecure ass scrolling text from the bottom of his broadcast 👊💥📺

[marmarjuni]

Just kiss already

[zaebeecee]

RadioDust and RadioStatic because Alastor is autistic, and Angel Dust and Vox make great stim toys

One is fluffy and bendy with different kinds of soft textures

One has buttons and switches and clicky fingers

and then he disappeared for seven years

Author: MrAprilFools Pairing: Vox/Alastor Rating/CW: Period-typical Racism, Animal Abuse, Child Abuse, Graphic depictions of insects, F slur, Cannibalism Summary: This memory begins on a hot sunny day in the early 1960s. Nestled in the grove of Rosie’s garden in the heart of Cannibal Town. An old memory, one that Alastor would recall on the muggy days when the rancorous din of the guests reached even the refuge of his tower. Hazy first, then clearer when he dares to close his eyes and remember. Filled in like a chalk outline until it was like staring back at one of those old silent films ages past. The anamnesis revived the prickle of the muggy weather stinging his skin through the multiple layers. The stuttered monotonous tone of the sprinklers when the White picket dream was once feasible. Even the incomprehensible screaming of Cannibal Children on their hunt.

The actors of that day were yours truly, Rosie, Vox, and Rosie’s late second husband: Cyril. An old Everyday, reduced to nostalgia.
