Summary
Viktor still thinks of the house as Jayce’s house, the bed as Jayce’s bed, the pillows and blankets as Jayce’s pillows and Jayce’s blankets. He supposes there’s no point in training himself out of the habit, now; soon enough they will be Jayce’s blankets and Jayce’s bed and Jayce’s house again, and Viktor will only have been a temporary visitor, moving in and out of his life and soon enough forgotten.
****
(or: Viktor's dying. He doesn't tell his partner.)

Summary
Michelangelo believes Donnie is a good person, in spite of the impressions his brother might leave sometime. Almost everything the softshell does is to help and protect his family.
Not even discovering his brother has a terrifying new power does anything to sway this feeling, even if it leaves him a bit concerned.
But are good intentions really all that matter?

I didn’t want you to see me by sulkybender

Summary
“In the council chambers,” Jayce says. “In that other body. The puppet. I’d never seen you like that before.”
Viktor tenses, his throat sealing closed.
“You were so…” Jayce’s hands clench, like he’s trying to physically grab the idea he needs. “Confident,” he says. “And then later, when your mask broke, you were—you shrank from me. Like you didn’t want me to see you.”
“I don’t remember,” Viktor mumbles, lying, and Jayce looks at him sympathetically, with his warm earnest eyes. He takes Viktor’s thin hand between his.
“I guess I didn’t know you felt that way,” he says. “About your body.”

Summary
The start of Arcane Season 2 from Jayces’ perspective, delving into his thought process when he finds and tries to save Viktor post explosion, whilst he remembers promises he made to his partner long ago.
‘Jayce could feel his mind short-circuiting. Because despite everything- despite all of Viktor’s health scares and decline over the years- Jayce had truly, never considered what it would be like when his partner died.
Because he couldn’t. Because it wasn’t possible. It wasn’t conceivable.
And it definitely wasn’t happening now. ’

Summary
There was so much blood. He felt it flaking between his scales, the colour slowly turned darker as it deoxygenated.
He knew he should feel something. An emotional response to what has just occurred. Some explicable reason for why he felt numb.
He had just killed someone.
…He couldn't feel anything.

Summary
They hadn’t told him, but Donnie had eyes. He could observe it. He wasn’t asking for thanks or open appreciation— he knew people only did that when they wanted something more from him or wanted to hurt him. Knowing they were content without him because of his actions was all that mattered.
(He missed praise. He missed turtle piles, and pizza weeks, and movie nights where they watched his favorites and actually engaged with them. He missed karaoke and DDR and biweekly Powerpoint nights where he deliberately picked the most moronic topic to rant about like a madman, just to revel in the sound of Leo shrieking with laughter.
And God, he missed S.H.E.L.L.D.O.N, so so much. Something had broken in him when he’d found his AI chip in the rubble, unsalvageable. Something about the grief of it all had made everything feel worthless. Even if he yearned for it—that didn’t really matter anymore, did it? It was gone.)
(or: in the middle of building their new lair, donnie is cursed. not wanting to slow himself down, he resolves to keep it from his family.
little does he know, that is the exact problem that got him cursed in the first place.)

Unknowingly being built as weapons of war with enhanced physical resistances has been, up to this point, nothing but a perk. But it also means that they're immune to regular painkillers, something they only learn about when it's a little too late.

Summary
Lucifer had been in a sexual relationship with Alastor for a while now, and he hated that he didn’t hate it. It was fun, it was new and exciting, but it was also causing him to experience certain feelings he did NOT want to feel about the Radio Demon, thank you very much!
Fate(and Alastor) had other plans, however, and it seemed that perhaps he did not know the demon as well as he had originally thought. After their most recent bout of activities, Alastor suggested that they clean up together, the human way.
Lucifer agreed, only hoping that afterward Alastor may stay the night. He was so touch-starved, and Al was unlikely to stay any other way. However, as the night progresses, he gets the idea that Alastor’s true intentions are surprisingly much less nefarious than he thought they would be. If the non-sexual(unheard of for them!)touches and kisses were anything to go by. Oh, and the love songs the demon insists on singing. Not that he was complaining.
Shit. How did he get here?

Summary
Hurried footsteps approached him, heels clacking on the tile. He flinched, hating himself for it, and braced for the touch, a hand in his hair, or perhaps caressing his face, or running tenderly along his side.
None came. There was still a voice, but it sounded like it was coming to him through an ocean of water, waves crashing in his ears and obscuring most of the words. He did his best to listen, to make out meaning from the garbled sounds, and was able to pick out a few pieces-
“-there? Please- can hear- to me- blood coming from?- me, Dad!”
-Or-
Lucifer tries to take a shower. It goes just about as poorly as it possibly could.

Summary
Charlie has never exactly been great with social cues.
Not that she doesn’t understand them! Because she does. Most of the time. But she’s gotten a lot better at reading them after opening Hazbin Hotel. She’s learning little things about her staff in the process, too. Like how Husk’s pupils dilate whenever Angel says his name or how Cherri sometimes stares in the direction of Sir Pentious’ portrait without a single word.
Like how Alastor always shies away from touch but has lately been allowing light brushes of arms and very brief hugs.
Even now, he’s spinning her dad around by the shoulders to point out a decoration on the lobby wall, letting his hand linger on her dad’s arm and…and…
Wait. What?!
Since when has Alastor and her dad ever gotten along?

Summary
The battle is over, the hotel is being rebuilt, and everything is coming up roses, as much as anything can grow in Hell. There's just one thing that's taking up entirely too much of Lucifer's thoughts.
One thing or one person, and it's one hell of a distraction, no pun intended.
Lucifer was supposed to be working on rebuilding and Alastor was supposed to be sleeping. So far, neither of them are doing what they should be, no surprise, there, was it? Neither of them have ever been very good at doing what they've been told.
