Summary
The silence stretched between them then, thick and awkward. Not because they had nothing to say; because they had too much. Too many questions neither wanted to voice first. Too many unspoken rules from Hell suddenly meaningless here.
Vox finally stood, joints cracking in protest. Annoying. Stupid human body. “Look. All I know is we woke up like this. On Earth. Together. With all our memories and none of our powers. So, congratulations, deer boy, you’re stuck with me.”
Alastor pinched the bridge of his nose, inhaling sharply through his teeth. “Let me get this straight. I have been forcibly deposited into a mortal vessel, next to you, with no warning, no explanation, and no immediate means of escape?”
“That’s the gist,” Vox said.
Alastor stared at him.
Then laughed.
Or Alastor and Vox find themselves trapped in Purgatory with human bodies.

Summary
New Orleans, 1933.
Vincent Whittman’s assignment (punishment) seems simple enough: recruit Mr. Alastor Hartfelt, the city’s famed radio star.
But his trip derails the moment he meets the man dressed in a smile too sharp, with secrets too deep, and a presence that hums with something far beyond him.
One broken ritual binds them for decades, pulling them back to each other again and again, to the one soul neither can quite break away from. -

Summary
The voices began at night; trickling into Alastor’s mind as he lay awake listening to the sound of his father's drunken fury while he hid beneath the covers in his room. It had never crossed his mind until then to kill him; but when a gun is placed in his hands on one fateful hunting trip, the choice is made for him: One shot and blood on his hands for freedom.
Alastor and his mother can now finally turn a new page and leave the horror behind; but years later, when a robbery gone wrong ends with a body in the street, Alastor's bloodlust takes hold, marking the start of a bloody chapter in New Orleans' history led by the rise of it's most brutal and elusive serial killer yet.
Bodies begin to pile up, sending the city into states of terror that serve as stepping stones in Alastor's climb to the top as New Orleans' most popular radio host. By day, he is the voice that ensnares them over the airwaves with reports of the macabre, but by night, he's the one painting the streets in blood.
This newfound fame allows him to walk straight into the midst of the city's glamorous, sinful elite; but, just when he reaches the top, a murder he didn’t commit shatters his perfect game, and Alastor finds himself spiraling.

Summary
"Believe it, Sylvie. Because I broke him. I took the most incredibly kind, gentle person in existence, and I broke him without even trying."
When the TVA is attacked, Loki, Mobius, and Casey are forced onto the timeline: Earth, 1996. Mobius’ timeline. Waiting for rescue, this unlikely trio finds comfort (and trouble) in the human experience. Mobius and Loki find each other. But with his penchant for trouble, will Loki's lies tear them apart? More importantly, will Casey meet a fish?
This is part rom-com, part action/adventure, part drama! Prepare for some 90's nostalgia, a healthy romp in the sand, plenty of slow-burn pining, drunken confessions, misused magic, a full-fledged Mobius backstory, and trials that will test the strength of love.
SLOW BURN
