Summary
Alastor (40s) is a larger-than-life voice actor, known for his roles in critically acclaimed animations as well as Broadway runs. Though everyone knows his voice, his reclusive nature keeps him out of the news and away from the screen.
Vincent Whittman (30s) is a charismatic, up-and-coming actor who’s made himself at home in every medium: films, television, podcasting, music. He’s actively growing his following, constantly connecting with fans and making sure his name is everywhere.
In this parallel universe, both men are rewarded for their passion and talent with praise and acclaim. They have everything they could possibly want. And yet…neither can shake a gnawing itch inside. When the two find themselves playing opposite one another in a new animated series, how will they balance their curated presence with an unexpected curiosity?
Note: Chapter updates Sunday nights.
This fic is much more slow burn and plot-driven than my last one. Tags are based on the full outline but may be updated. Violence AND smut are slow burn. Hope you like it!

Summary
“I haven’t really been to a wedding where I’ve, uh… let loose. But, hey,” Dennis shrugged, “maybe I’m doing it wrong.”
“If I hadn’t already agreed to go to this conference, I’d offer to go with you,” Robby said casually. “Show you how it’s done. I’ve got a good track record as a plus-one, too.” Dennis had to say something. To interrupt. To shut this down. But what was he supposed to say? No, you can’t be my plus one, because I lied about my cousin, and there is no wedding, and it seems a little weird to bring a date to a fucking funeral– “Apparently parents love it when you bring home a doctor.”
And just like that, the bubble popped.
“I’m not gay,” Dennis snapped.
He had never hated the sound of his own voice as much as he did right then.
---
Or, Dennis is anxiously headed home for a "wedding" in Broken Bow, Nebraska, the details of which are increasingly fuzzy. Robby's got a medical conference in Omaha that same weekend. So they carpool. Seventeen hours both ways in an enclosed space with no way out except a tuck and roll. This'll go great.- Language:

Summary
When the other Vees don't show up to stop Vox, Alastor is forced to, once again, save the day himself. He offers to make Vox a deal. One martini in exchange for saving the world.
Of course, every deal made in Hell has much more to it than what the words alone say. Their personal history with the cocktail goes back to the 1960's, a brand new sinner named Vincent getting the lay of Hell, a wide-smiling patron of the arts, and an utter refusal to ever define a relationship.
It's a love story, if you squint.

Summary
He puts on a good show, Alastor will give him that, but it's just that—a show. Perching on the arm of the couch he watches listlessly, attention lingering on that unfading smile and the pale, dead eyes above it. Oh, they're creased at the corners, faintly lined with years and mirth, but—"Trust me," he says confidently, like he's the only thing that matters. In Vincent Whittman's world, he probably is.
Alastor turns off the television, jaw firmly set with a new kind of determination.
A young Alastor becomes entangled with an older TV star in more ways than he'd planned.
