Description
I'm aware the show is out now, but I haven't watched it yet. This is entirely canon divergent, as I've been working on this way before the show came out. I also don't care at all about sinners being unable to breed. This is my fanon, so I'm doing what I want.

Previous part:

------

"...and so that's why I need to do this," Charlie says, finishing her proposal to all who she gathered together in the vacant lobby. Luckily all of the hotel "patients" were holed up in their rooms, since it's later at night.

It's a collective silence, save for the occasional babbling from little Valerie or snort from Fat Nuggets, as everyone just takes in what Charlie told them all. Eve is alive, somewhere in Romania. And Charlie is allowed to go to Earth to search for her, and not only that, but bring friends along...It's a total shakeup that nobody was expecting. Nobody thought such a thing was possible, but yet it is.

"Are...you sure this is a good idea, Charlie?" Vaggie asks cautiously, being the voice of reason she tends to be. "I mean, is your uncle even trustworthy? Let alone your dad in his sincerity..."

Charlie looks at Vaggie, offended. "What? Vaggie, of course Gabriel is trustworthy! He may be a totally cool and laidback angel, but he would never do anything sneaky like that, to get his brother and I in trouble! And Dad...well, the way he spoke, I know he wasn't being deceitful. I know you're worried, Vaggie, but trust me. I wouldn't be talking to you guys about this if it wasn't possible or safe."

Seeing how determined Charlie is, Vaggie sighs and accepts the answer, hoping she's correct. "Well, do you know who you want to take with you, then?"

"Count me out," Husk grunts from where he's standing before Charlie can even say a word to anyone. "The last thing I wanna do is go back to Earth looking like how I did in life. I never wanna deal with that again." He doesn't elaborate, and the way he spoke makes the group know it's best not to pry.

"I can't go either," Niffty says politely, with her excitable tone. "I'd love to! But, well, the hotel is already a mess, and I couldn't possibly leave it unattended for more than a few hours; a few days is out of the question and unacceptable!"

Charlie purses her lips in understanding towards both the winged cat and the cyclops, before turning to Alastor. The Radio Demon regards her, his grin widening.

"Al, will you come along?" Charlie asks.

"Why, I'm honored, my dear!" the deer demon exclaims, acting modest. "I suppose I will. It will be interesting to see how much has changed since the 1930s!"

Charlie nods, but gives him a stern look, pointing at him. "By the way, Al: no misbehaving or trickery. You can't even if you wanted to, but still!"

Alastor lifts a hand in defense. "I give you my word."

Charlie slowly lowers her finger, glaring at him all the while, before breathing a sigh. She next turns towards Angel Dust and gives a twitch of the eye--a way to wink at him without making it obvious.

"Angel...?" she offers.

Angel Dust catches on and scoffs a fake attitude, trying not to smile as he continues to stroke his pet pig.. "Seriously? What am I, some kinda kid tah keep a leash on?"

"Please, Angel?" Charlie pushes, pouting, to which she gets an overexaggerated sigh.

"Fiiiiiiine," Angel Dust relents dramatically, which makes Charlie perk up.

"Alright! Now I just need one more person, and I know exactly who I want to ask," she continues.

Giving a determined exhale, she turns and walks over to Vixenia, who is still holding onto her daughter Valerie, and plants a hand firmly on the fox demoness' shoulder. Startled, she looks up at the princess.

"Vixenia, I want to take you along with us," Charlie says, smiling friendly. This surprises Vixenia tremendously, but she thankfully doesn't drop her daughter.

"W-what...?" she stammers. "You...you want me to come with you? Really? I--why...?"

Charlie gives a sympathetic look and gently squeezes Vixenia's shoulder.

"Well...I felt bad when I couldn't take you to the living world when you begged me a couple years back," she explains. "I didn't think it was possible, anyway. And besides, Dad said it's okay, despite the circumstances. As long as you don't try to interact with anyone from your original life, you're allowed to come. Anyway, think of it as me making it up to you for being unable to help back then."

Vixenia chews her lip, not sure what to think. She looks down at Valerie, who's busy reaching for one of Vixenia's bangs with one of her two pairs of arms, before she speaks.

"I-I'd love to, Charlie, but..." Vixenia says, "I have to stay with Valerie; she's only a little more than a year old. I can't just go off on some little adventure and leave her here unattended...I'm sorry."

Charlie deflates, but Alastor speaks up, a wide grin.

"That's no problem at all, Vixenia," he interjects. "I assure you, Valerie will be in capable hands here at the hotel in our absence!"

"Huh?" Vixenia asks, lifting a confused brow at the deer demon. "Who? I know Vaggie isn't too crazy for kids and isn't good with them, she told me herself." To this, the moth demoness gives a confirming nod, also wondering where Alastor is going with his train of thought.

"I wasn't thinking of Vagatha," Alastor continues. He waves his hand over towards Husk, completely oblivious to what's going on as he's too busy drinking. "In fact, I propose dear old Husker to be the one to look after Valerie while we're gone!"

Husk spits out his drink, and he lets out a loud shriek of "WHAT!?" that is echoed by almost everyone else present as well. Alastor pays no mind to the shock and he chuckles, adjusting his monocle.

"Worry not, Valerie will be in capable hands," he says. "Despite his grouchy and seemingly careless alcoholic tendencies, Husker actually has a soft spot for children and is great with them! Isn't that right, ol' boy?"

Husk's face is flushed pink in embarrassment as he feels several unbelieving eyes face his direction. He grumbles and folds his arms. Niffty hops in place and waves one hand.

"It's true!" she exclaims peppily. "A few years ago, he had to work with some imp kids as part of losing a poker game to their dad, and he was the best babysitter ever!"

"Whatever," Husk mutters. "Just because it's true doesn't mean you have to tell it to the world...let alone make me a babysitter..."

"Husk...can I trust you to look after Valerie while we're gone...?" Vixenia asks, her voice and emotions guarded should he decline.

Husk is quiet for a while before finally sighing and resting his cheek in a palm, glancing at the young moth-vixen baby.

"I guess," he says in a voice less harsh, before turning his gaze to Alastor harshly. "But I expect a raise in this month's pay for this, got it, asshole?"

Alastor chuckles and walks over to the mother and daughter, patting the little one's head, which makes her babble in delight. "Yes, yes, I will make it so. I know you're reliable in this regard, that's why I made the suggestion." He turns his focus to Charlie. "And I'm sure your little friends, Razzle and Dazzle, were they?, can offer additional help if they need to."

Charlie nods. "If I ask them to, yes." She then turns her gaze back to Vixenia. "So...will you come along?"

Vixenia thinks on it a bit more, but decidedly nods, trying not to get too emotional. She gives Charlie a tight half-hug. "Thank you, Charlie..."

Alastor claps his hands together.

"Wonderful!" he proclaims. "Then it seems like everything is all settled. I will have to attend to some things, and schedule a few nights' worth of content to automatically broadcast during my absence. There's so much to do~!"

He strolls off, listing off things he has to settle before they all leave. Angel Dust just stretches and yawns obnoxiously.

"Weelllll, I'm gonna hit tha hay, I'm a bit tired," he says. "Two days ain't that far away, I got plenty ah time tah prepare. See ya, ladies."

He walks off as well, scratching his head sleepily with a hand that isn't holding Fat Nuggets. Eventually, they all start pouring out of the lobby, until just Charlie and Vaggie are left. Vaggie still has a guarded and worried expression. The Princess of Hell notices this, and looks at her friend with concern.

"Vaggie? What's wrong?" she asks. Vaggie avoids Charlie's eyes as she's asked this.

"Nothing," she answers quietly. "It's just...why do you have to keep taking Angel along? You've been taking him with you for things more often lately: the store, recruiting more hotel guests...and now this."

Charlie pauses, unsure of how to answer, let alone why Vaggie seems so upset.

"You...said it yourself, Vaggs," she says carefully, "I need to keep Angel 'in line.' Since this 'trip' is important for me, I need to bring backup. I can't leave Alastor here, because he could mess everything about my project up, since he's malicious and untrustworthy. Even though you have more positive feelings about Angel ever since the library incident, you still can't stand him in large doses. You understandably don't trust Husk or Niffty to run this place without it burning to the ground. You're the only 'responsible' choice left to stay behind. B-but if you wanted to come along, you're welcome to, though!"

Vaggie considers Charlie's answer a moment or two before shaking her head. "That's not...No, no, you're right. I'm sorry. I don't need to go, and I don't want to take that option away from Vixenia. It's no big deal."

Charlie gives her friend a sympathetic smile and shrug, to which Vaggie forces a smile in return.

"I'm...gonna go to bed too," the moth demoness says. "'night, Charlie."

Charlie gives a tiny wave and returns the sentiment, watching her friend leaving. She worries and wonders what's wrong with her, before ultimately deciding it's probably none of her business. Sighing, Charlie looks back down at the necklace again and a surge of excitement courses through her, along with the uneasiness of not knowing what exactly the next few days will bring.

------

So, here's part 5. Two parts at once, isn't that productive?

So as mentioned in the last part, Lucifer concedes and permits Charlie to go on this little pilgrimage to the living world to search for Eve, the mother of Cain, who is Charlie's older half-brother. And Lucifer gives her some rings to give to three friends as backup and security. I know I'm bending rules and stuff, but again, all of this is my own spin on the series and stuff, and I enjoy taking creative liberties, so whatever. Anyway, Charlie told the small huddle about things and her plans. She told them the basics what Lucifer told her in the past and all that. And so, a small team is assembled for the upcoming voyage.

Husk's comment about not wanting to go back is based off the fact I read on the wiki that Fautisse (is that how you spell their name?) mentioned Husk was very unattractive when he was alive, so here he doesn't want to relive those days as an "ugly old man." And the ones Charlie chooses are who will go. But Vaggie has some reservations about the development.

Charlie invites Angel, since they're in a secret relationship in my fanon. Another reason why Vaggis is a bit apprehensive is that lately she's had some worries about the nature of Angel's and Charlie's "friendship;" she wonders if there's something more going on in secret. As I said before in past stuff, in this AU, Vaggie (and Angel) is bisexual with a slight preference for her own gender, and she is only just best friends with Charlie...but has secret feelings for her, even if she hasn't admitted them yet. And her feelings for Charlie has made her begin to feel suspicious and jealous. Even if her suspicions are seemingly crazy.

And Charlie lastly offers my OC Vixenia to come along as a way to make up being unable to beforehand. Fans of mine are already aware of the page in my arc for Vixenia I did last year. And also because Charlie didn't even think it was possible to begin with. Vixenia is hesitant because her daughter is so young, but Alastor (who has become friends with her that initially started from pity upon learning about Vixenia's past circumstances, and has also become somewhat sentimental towards the little one) offers Husk to look after her, much to the cat's chagrin. Vaggie, I read last year on the wiki, is said to not be very motherly or good with kids, so. While she does help out with Valerie, she's not someone you'd come to for things like that.

The group disperses, but Vaggie voices a bit of her insecurity upon Charlie spending so much time with Angel lately, ever since the library incident (the event in my fanon which made Charliedust realize their feelings and get them together). Charlie, completely oblivious to Vaggie's feelings for her and confused about why she's so...odd about asking about it, tries to answer carefully. She's worried Vaggie will kick Angel Dust out or something. But Vaggie chooses to accept Charlie's answer.

While I have the general idea of this arc figured out, I still need to contemplate on the next parts so they're clearer. And consult my ghostwriter who's helped me with a lot of stuff lol. And the idea of Charliedust going on this voyage, and Alastor and Vixenia join alongside, was his, but I liked the idea enough to want to expand on it more. Back then, around November 2022 when my friend first suggested it, it was the thought both Charliedust and Vixastor were already couples, but not in this final product. While Alastor and Vixenia get together eventually (my fanon, so I ship what I want), they're still just friends at this point, but some small sparks here and there lately. I did like the original idea proposed, but then when I worked more on thinking, I remembered Valerie was young. So, since the wiki said Husk is good with, or at least has a soft spot for, kids, Alastor offers him to help look after the little one, which comes as a shock to everyone else, minus Niffty. Alastor's just helping out a friend~

I already have the group's human disguises figured out and designed. Angel's going to look mostly like how he did in 2016 concept art of human!Angel Viv did back then, albeit with my own interpretation of colors. I don't know for sure if the art of human!Alastor is just a popular fan interpretation that everyone decided to go with (kinda like how fuhnaf called the purple guy "Vincent" for years due to a popular fan interpretation/design, until Sister Location, and more lore, came out), or if it's legit, but I'm going with it. There's gonna be some liberties with his color scheme as well. As Lucifer said, it makes some changes to their former living appearances. And Vixenia will look mostly the same since she's the "newest" death. Rules can be tricky, but I don't care, it's fun to do what you want and adjust when necessary lol.

This piece was pretty fun to do, and for the second panel, I referenced the image of Charlie from the original preview banner on Amazon Prime from a couple weeks ago when it was listed early so you could (only) add it to your watch list. I wish I was better at making my OCs fit Viv's style more, but eh. I think they fit decently in regards to how I draw the canon folks myself. I also have a hard time making the eye farthest from the camera not look too small in comparison. Stupid 3/4 view. I just winged it with the background lol. However, I also had to trace Alastor's head from the Overlord meeting image from the initial release trailer, because I couldn't get it right for the life of me. I still think Angel's "hair" spreads out a little too far, but eh. If Viv can't always be consistent with character designs, then I suppose I can let it slide lol. Also, I have no idea how to draw Fat Nuggets. Like, one way is "simple" enough, but in terms of Angel holding his pet pig, the animal's anatomy is hard to figure out. Oh well, you get the idea as is. It also took me forever to correctly warp the wallpaper background to fit in regards to the perspective. Vaggie's pose was referenced from a 2017 image Viv did of her and Charlie dressed as Jack and Sally. I'm still annoyed that Vaggie's lineart is still blue like the pilot after all. Everything else looked like her lines were black as well, and only really Angel had the fancy lineart color. Oh well.

I swear to God, I'm going to find a million mistakes now despite spending hours on it. Then again, I already spend shitloads of hours on art already, and still later on find mistakes. Which is why I usually don't like to look at my art after it's been uploaded. However, I do think this came out good enough.

I do have the next part vaguely planned out. I just gotta give myself time to be motivated again. I've made myself burnt out from working so much on fanart lately, that I need to take a break for a couple weeks or so to give myself time to relax. Give me time to watch the show finally since I've been holding off until I submit stuff. Maybe watch some movies I've been wanting to watch again for a while, whatever, really. I just need a mental break because I've overworked myself as usual with fanart. That, and my depression is back with a vengeance and so my motivation and stuff has been decreased and all I want to do is just lie in bed. Meh.

Not sure which order this will be submitted, but this is currently the last description I'm typing. I've spent soooooooo many hours again writing descriptions. Geez. I even pre-wrote the stories for parts 4 and 5 and descriptions for my art load still took forever. I had to take a break and nap earlier because not only did I have work tonight (which is where I'm currently at to submit stuff using wifi...thank goodness for submit saving descriptions and stuff that you type!), and because I was having an awful, head splitting headache from too much screen time and once again, little to no sleep over the span of three days. XP

I'm sorry I write such detailed descriptions, and I can't just leave it at something simple like "look, I drew a duck lulz." But it wouldn't matter anyway. No matter how long or short I make my descriptions, people can't be assed to actually read before asking stupid questions or making stupid comments when it's most likely already addressed in the description...or the fact that the art is obviously an AU. Sorry if it seems bitchy, but I'm at my wit's end with so many stupid questions and comments lately, and I'm tired of answering the obvious, answering the same things, or getting ~oh so funny and amusing comments~, repeatedly. I can only be patient for so long.

Here's to hoping that finally watching HH won't make me lose motivation and become super discouraged to continue, since my anxiety about the show has been awful for over a year, even though my worries are unfounded and I'm sure I'll enjoy the show regardless. Yay for anxiety and paranoia.

I'm so glad you guys like my fanon, and I really hope you guys will still support my AU/fanon even now that the show is out.

Please don't yell at me for shipping choice. Vivziepop said fans can ship whatever they want and have fun, regardless of canon sexualities, and people shouldn't attack others for their shipping choices. Kthx.

Hazbin Hotel belongs to Vivziepop.
Vixenia and this AU belong to me.

So, here's part 5. Two parts at once, isn't that productive?

And Lucifer gives her some rings to give to three friends as backup and security. I know I'm bending rules and stuff, but again, all of this is my own spin on the series and stuff, and I enjoy taking creative liberties, so whatever.

She's worried Vaggie will kick Angel Dust out or something. But Vaggie chooses to accept Charlie's answer.

While I have the general idea of this arc figured out, I still need to contemplate on the next parts so they're clearer. And consult my ghostwriter who's helped me with a lot of stuff lol. And the idea of Charliedust going on this voyage, and Alastor and Vixenia join alongside, was his, but I liked the idea enough to want to expand on it more. Back then, around November 2022 when my friend first suggested it, it was the thought both Charliedust and Vixastor were already couples, but not in this final product. While Alastor and Vixenia get together eventually (my fanon, so I ship what I want), they're still just friends at this point, but some small sparks here and there lately. I did like the original idea proposed, but then when I worked more on thinking, I remembered Valerie was young. So, since the wiki said Husk is good with, or at least has a soft spot for, kids, Alastor offers him to help look after the little one, which comes as a shock to everyone else, minus Niffty. Alastor's just helping out a friend~

I already have the group's human disguises figured out and designed. Angel's going to look mostly like how he did in 2016 concept art of human!Angel Viv did back then, albeit with my own interpretation of colors. I don't know for sure if the art of human!Alastor is just a popular fan interpretation that everyone decided to go with (kinda like how fuhnaf called the purple guy "Vincent" for years due to a popular fan interpretation/design, until Sister Location, and more lore, came out), or if it's legit, but I'm going with it. There's gonna be some liberties with his color scheme as well. As Lucifer said, it makes some changes to their former living appearances. And Vixenia will look mostly the same since she's the "newest" death. Rules can be tricky, but I don't care, it's fun to do what you want and adjust when necessary lol.

This piece was pretty fun to do, and for the second panel, I referenced the image of Charlie from the original preview banner on Amazon Prime from a couple weeks ago when it was listed early so you could (only) add it to your watch list. I wish I was better at making my OCs fit Viv's style more, but eh. I think they fit decently in regards to how I draw the canon folks myself. I also have a hard time making the eye farthest from the camera not look too small in comparison. Stupid 3/4 view. I just winged it with the background lol. However, I also had to trace Alastor's head from the Overlord meeting image from the initial release trailer, because I couldn't get it right for the life of me. I still think Angel's "hair" spreads out a little too far, but eh. If Viv can't always be consistent with character designs, then I suppose I can let it slide lol. Also, I have no idea how to draw Fat Nuggets. Like, one way is "simple" enough, but in terms of Angel holding his pet pig, the animal's anatomy is hard to figure out. Oh well, you get the idea as is. It also took me forever to correctly warp the wallpaper background to fit in regards to the perspective. Vaggie's pose was referenced from a 2017 image Viv did of her and Charlie dressed as Jack and Sally. I'm still annoyed that Vaggie's lineart is still blue like the pilot after all. Everything else looked like her lines were black as well, and only really Angel had the fancy lineart color. Oh well.

I swear to God, I'm going to find a million mistakes now despite spending hours on it. Then again, I already spend shitloads of hours on art already, and still later on find mistakes. Which is why I usually don't like to look at my art after it's been uploaded. However, I do think this came out good enough.

I do have the next part vaguely planned out. I just gotta give myself time to be motivated again. I've made myself burnt out from working so much on fanart lately, that I need to take a break for a couple weeks or so to give myself time to relax. Give me time to watch the show finally since I've been holding off until I submit stuff. Maybe watch some movies I've been wanting to watch again for a while, whatever, really. I just need a mental break because I've overworked myself as usual with fanart. That, and my depression is back with a vengeance and so my motivation and stuff has been decreased and all I want to do is just lie in bed. Meh.

Not sure which order this will be submitted, but this is currently the last description I'm typing. I've spent soooooooo many hours again writing descriptions. Geez. I even pre-wrote the stories for parts 4 and 5 and descriptions for my art load still took forever. I had to take a break and nap earlier because not only did I have work tonight (which is where I'm currently at to submit stuff using wifi...thank goodness for submit saving descriptions and stuff that you type!), and because I was having an awful, head splitting headache from too much screen time and once again, little to no sleep over the span of three days. XP

I'm sorry I write such detailed descriptions, and I can't just leave it at something simple like "look, I drew a duck lulz." But it wouldn't matter anyway. No matter how long or short I make my descriptions, people can't be assed to actually read before asking stupid questions or making stupid comments when it's most likely already addressed in the description...or the fact that the art is obviously an AU. Sorry if it seems bitchy, but I'm at my wit's end with so many stupid questions and comments lately, and I'm tired of answering the obvious, answering the same things, or getting ~oh so funny and amusing comments~, repeatedly. I can only be patient for so long.

Here's to hoping that finally watching HH won't make me lose motivation and become super discouraged to continue, since my anxiety about the show has been awful for over a year, even though my worries are unfounded and I'm sure I'll enjoy the show regardless. Yay for anxiety and paranoia.

I'm so glad you guys like my fanon, and I really hope you guys will still support my AU/fanon even now that the show is out.

Please don't yell at me for shipping choice. Vivziepop said fans can ship whatever they want and have fun, regardless of canon sexualities, and people shouldn't attack others for their shipping choices. Kthx.

Hazbin Hotel belongs to Vivziepop.
Vixenia and this AU belong to me.
