Summary

Summary
Jay wasn’t a complicated guy. He was dedicated to his crew and would do anything to help build their vision of the future. After the fall of the barrier and transitioning into college, perhaps he didn’t play as much of a part in that big picture as the others did, but he liked to think that he helped in his own way – all while protecting Mal’s reputation and maintaining the assets that made him valuable.
He’s used to grunt work, so when Mal asked him to start hanging out with Ben when she was too tired to or just needed some private Evie time, Jay didn’t mind it. After all, anyone claimed by his crew was crew in turn – it didn’t have to be more complicated than that.
It wasn’t a hard thing to do, so it was unlikely Jay would mess it up.
He could be kind of dumb though.
ALSO KNOWN AS: That time Jay works through his Isle conditioning in a world where it was no longer needed; learned how to analyze and establish boundaries and connect to people in a way that had never been expected or encouraged of him before. It was really hard.
But also really worth it.

Summary
Alastor lay awake in his bed, staring at the ceiling as he waited for Lucifer to get up. Three weeks was probably already far too long to be waiting to have this conversation, but he really didn’t want to talk about it. His ears pinned and he whined softly at even the anticipation of the talk, but he knew that he had to, and he should have long ago already.
OR
Alastor and Lucifer talk about what happened, and they have an announcement to make.

Summary
Korekiyo's hands protested loudly in pain, and his ribs ached, but for the first time in years, he finally felt like he had peace. Her voice - and most importantly, her presence - was gone, and for the first time in his life, all he was left with was the sounds of his hushed sobs and the slowly fading static in his brain. After all the dark that drowned him, it was such a despairingly light feeling that he couldn't help laughing through the tears. All of his pain and suffering, all those forgotten and repressed years and those horrid memories nipping at his heels - gone along with most of his hair.
---
Or: After a talk with Rantaro brings back old memories and feelings, Korekiyo realizes his life wasn't all sunshine and rainbows. As one might expect, he doesn't handle this well.
--
Alternatively: Another Korekiyo having another mental breakdown and cutting his hair fic bcus I can't get enough of those

Summary
The Appalachian Mountains are the perfect place to disappear. The wilderness is dense and tangled, and it’s easy for a simple ranger to fall through the cracks. Will was counting on that fact. After a month or so of working as a ranger, Will thought life may finally be looking up for him: he has a job he enjoys, a (state-provided) cabin to himself, and he’s even managed to make himself a friend! But there’s a storm brewing in the shadow of Mount Somnis, and it will put Will–as well as his reluctant companion Prospero–on a collision course with horrors beyond their wildest nightmares.

Summary
You are a sinner in Hell, and you want to die—permanently. You own nothing, not even your soul, and struggle every day just to exist. That is why you view the annual exterminations as your only hope and the last pardon from God to sinners.
When the day comes and you lie down with an exorcist angel hovering above you, you accept your fate with a serene smile on your face. Finally, you will be free.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?"
But your executioner just had to be the first man himself.
Killing sinners when they want it is not as fun, which is why Adam presents you with a deal—your kind likes those, right? He will kill you, but only if you are willing to listen to him spill everything that is weighing on his soul. Dead tell no tales, and Adam really needs someone to talk to.
