Summary
“Every single thing a woman does in life,” Alastor's mother had told him, straightening his bowtie, smoothing his jacket, “it costs her something. Be it with a man, be it at her workplace, in her home…every single thing she does, it costs her. Don’t be what costs us extra, Alastor.”
And he’d sworn by that, time and time again. Women were allies, women were stuck in the same lot as he, disrespected and looked down upon for a simple fact of biology and genetics that they had no say in. Women also had to tread carefully, but more carefully than even he did on unstable footing, and if that meant he took his jacket off to make their pathway less muddy, so be it. What goes around, comes around. Women typically don’t want to betray him, because they’re even more afraid of being betrayed than he is.
Never once has he considered allowing a man to fall into that same category—not that Lucifer is a woman, simply worthy of the same consideration and care—but warily, gradually, that seems to be the case forming here, after reviewing all that he knows about Lucifer Morningstar, and carefully considering every note in his ledger.

Summary
Alastor knows his place in this life as a perpetual outsider, his presence a calculated and inconspicuous coincidence amongst other passing ships. Every time he is hailed by another, he considers them, measures their worth, and finds them wanting.
Lucifer Magne just might be the iceberg that makes him reconsider.
Now he just needs to keep the other boats borne back into the currents while he drowns.

Summary
Alastor doesn’t remember the first deal he made, but he does know it taught him many essential lessons.
Power keeps you safe. Comfort is temporary. Anything can be taken away.
He doesn’t expect this Hotel to be anything different, but neither do the rest of the residents.
(Aren’t they all fools.)
