Overlord Angel Dust AU
Life has a funny way of working out. Alive, Anthony was a mafia brat who killed his dad, died of a drug overdose, and went right to Hell where he cut ties to his mafia origins and got into sex work.
Well, one of his customers happened to be a very rich sinner who was so impressed with his skills that word spread, Angel got so much business his pimp eventually retired and handed him the stable, and Angel rose in the ranks pretty quickly.
Becoming an overlord was not something he anticipated, but here we are. Overlord of the adult industry, actor in and producer of multiple successful films, moonlights as a drag queen and a singer as well. Angel just really likes to entertain and if he can make money and be powerful while doing so, why not?
He's also a decent boss to his stable. But he's also crude, crass, a huge slut, and addicted to drugs. The fact that he treats his people well is a bug, not a feature.
In any event, he's just leaving a club after a drag performance. Sadly, he didn't see anyone there who caught his fancy for the evening, so he's calls his driver to take him somewhere else.
Ten minutes later he's still waiting. Angel grumbles, wondering if he's going to have to have a talk with the guy, what's the hold-up? Then he sees the car stuck waiting for...some assholes fighting in the middle of the street.
"Oh, for fuck's sake!"

Using the only skills he had, he quickly rose to power as the Gambling Overlord. And then his luck turned, and he lost it all, reduced to an errand boy.
This particularly shitty night, he'd bumped into some loan sharks who he knew from the old days, who he'd thrown out of his casino. They're now finding it absolutely hilarious that he's on a rope, and decide to get some revenge for being kicked out of the gambling district years ago.
Husk is holding his own, using playing cards and exploding dice as weapons, but a few well-placed shots are getting to his wings, severely limiting his mobility.
no subject
(Also he may be siding with the one guy. He's...not a fan of people being ganged up on. No, he won't explain why.)
"Okay, who wants a letter from my Chicago Typewriter?!" he shouts, pulling out a pair of tommy guns and firing at the sharks. Up close, he recognizes the exploding dice and playing cards.
Wait, seriously? That's him?
no subject
After a bit, he lands, catching his breath, and leaning on a light pole. Glancing over at his helper, he raises an eyebrow. That's... the porn overlord. What the crap.
"Thanks for the help."
no subject
"Aint you the gambling overlord who lost it all thanks to Freakyface? What happened, you owe those guys money or somethin'?"
no subject
"Nah. I kicked them outta my casino years ago. Can't stand those predatory fuckers." He shrugs. "Now they just wanted revenge, I guess. Not that their business really suffered all that much, they still have plenty of idiots who are linin' up to get money from them."

Figuring this is set well pre-Alastor's 7 year hiatus
Yup. That works for me.

The porn overlord has some nasty vices
Tonight he may have gotten a little carried away and had too much fun at a wrap party for one of his movies. It's been a long one, what they'd call "development hell" and "troubled production" up there - actors being replaced, one director being fired for turf war bullshit, script revisions, it was an ordeal. The finished product was worth it, though, and Angel treated himself to plenty of Bolivian Marching Powder as compensation for all the struggles.
Bad thing: He's pretty fucked up, and the last time he did this much, the crash was Not Fun.
no subject
He was mostly staying to the side of the party, watching everyone interact (both sexily and not) with an amused expression. However, when he sees the Overlord of the Hour wobbling slightly, he's at his side quickly.
"Angel? You ok?" He's seen crashes before, and he has a feeling there's going to be a big one, considering the amount of powder that's around this room.
no subject
A few whispers of what's the fallen overlord doing here or Husk's connection to Alastor, but no one's tried to make him feel unwelcome. In fact...quite a few of them tried to hit on Husk, and Angel doesn't know why that bothers him.
no subject
He takes one of Angel's arms and guides him to a sofa off to the side. "Can't have the powerful Overlord falling over in the middle of his own party, can we?"

Premiere night
It's a wild scenario, but the actors had a blast making it. Angel's getting ready as Husk stops by, just like they'd planned.
Re: Premiere night
He stops at a flower vendor and gets a single rose for Angel, all he can really afford. Thank fuck Al is off doing... Alastor things tonight and he should be able to have a peaceful evening. When he gets to the building, he has the doorman call up to let Angel know he's there.

The radio show has been put on hiatus
Normally Angel would just shrug it off, but that was before he met Husk, who Alastor owns. He makes it through about 15 minutes of the meeting before pretending there's some kind of emergency at the studio and hightails it out of there.
Somehow his roadster survives the manic drive to Husk's apartment building, and he only hits one person. Luckily it's just Travis and he survives.
Fuck, please be there...!

A face from the past
"Sorry, babe," he mutters, "I know you hated these things back when you were an overlord." But once they get there, Angel's not the only one who brought a partner. Vox arrived early, and he's got a very tall moth clinging to his arm. "Aw, fuck."
"It's him!" the moth cries out. "Vox, that's the one I told you about, he fired me for asking for bigger roles!" Angel facepalms. Valentino hadn't just asked, he'd offered to sleep with Angel knowing that wasn't how his studio worked. Dirtybadwrong was fine for his movies, but not offscreen.
no subject
"Did he think that the porn overlord wouldn't be at an Overlord meeting?" Husk runs a hand down his face. "The air must be thinner up there, cause he seems to be missing some brain cells."
no subject
"Who rightfully tossed you out for being a creep?" Angel cuts him off. "Look, you knew damn well I didn't go in for that casting couch shit. I was tryin' to be decent!"
no subject
"Yeah, listen to your TV. He's got a point." Husk snorts, and pulls out a chair for Angel, sitting down next to him. In theory, he has double right to be here, considering Al isn't around, and he is an Overlord with power, and Husk is his second as well.

In which the Porn Overlord and his kitty boyfriend meet a Princess
Then one day he sees that homophobic bitch from 666 news mocking and humiliating someone on TV - no, not just anyone. The Princess of Hell because apparently some people are fucking idiots who want to get their asses kicked. Or don't care. Either way, the Princess bursts into a song and dance about a rainbow inside every demon and how sinners can totally be redeemed at a place called the Happy Hotel.
It's so over the top Angel can't help it, he starts laughing so hard he startles Fat Nuggets.

"Angel? What's up?"

He sighs, shaking his head. "Also, how the hell did she get to be so... innocent? That is... wow."
A pause. "You know, I think Al might have mentioned something about this. He's been talking about some hotel he's been working with."
