Hey Guys I Got Consumed By The Media. These Are My Humble Offerings

"Night" Part one.

My headcanon - Val is really restless sleeper and kicks constantly but it's ok 'cause Vox is literally dead to the world (and creepy)

I need more information on the overlords of hell, if only because I have this whole thing in my head about how they each stand in for the seven deadly sins, and I don't have one for sloth and I need it so my brain will brrr.

I know it's probably not a new idea, but here's my reasoning:

wrath - camilla carmine. she's a weapons dealer, powerful and running things (much in the same way that satan is running things - at least while lucifer is mia). she and satan also both have this whole restrained anger thing about them which I think is a great parallel (although she's got more control than he does).

lust - obviously valentino and his porn empire. now, he's a darker side of the idea of lust than our good boy ozzie. he leans more into the concept that lust without consent is greed (which ties into one of my other overlords later, you'll see), but his power absolutely lies in controlling what's 'sexy' - like how angel's work seems to be dependent more on val's kinks than what's popular with the pride ring.

envy - hear me out, but it's vox. he's constantly amassing this empire, this power, which, yeah, could be read as greed, but he's doing it because he wants what others have. he wants to be a one of the big dicks of hell, to beat camilla and zestial and especially alastor. vox creating the vees is a way to push himself above the others because he wants them to want what he has. his shows, his apps, his beef with alastor in stayed gone, everything is designed to make people like him more than the other overlords, especially alastor. hence the big smiles and posturing for audiences - he doesn't need to do that for power - he already has that. he does that because he wants to be respected/liked more than the others are. and alastor has that with the other overlords - zestial and rosie like him, camilla respects him (at least enough to speak to him like an equal). vox is looked down upon by the other overlords, and he envies that power alastor has.

pride - I feel like it's obvious it's alastor. he's so self-assured to the point that he's dismissive of everyone around him, especially those who could be seen as a threat. he goes up against adam, the most powerful of the exterminators, seemingly without any concern that he might not be strong enough to stop him (to the point where alastor isn't even armed with any angelic steel.He has some in the shield, but not even his little summoned creatures carry angelic weapons against adam). and to that point, pride is alastor's downfall there - if he'd been better prepared, he could have taken adam out. but he refused to use weapons provided by another overlord. he's threatened by lucifer (the actual sin of pride) because he can provide charlie with things alastor can't, and alastor being charlie's go-to for advice and protection and her hotel's needs are what gives him power in their relationship. it's what he needs for his ulterior motives to succeed. also, pride going head to head with pride is the most on point thing possible for the seven deadly sins.

gluttony - this feels a little lazy honestly, but rosie. but she's a cannibal, and what is cannibalism if not people throwing away all their reasoning for the joy of the feast?

greed - velvette. she's got a whole material wealth thing about her. fashion/social media overlord, the latter of which is always tied to overconsumption (hello, watch any of those grwm tiktoks where they have like, outfits for their stanley cups and twenty-three step hand care regimes where most of it is completely unnecessary). she and val are the only ones of the overlords we see consistently changing their outfits, and as I mentioned above, I see val tied into this sin, too. not just because of the outfits, but because of the love potions. ozzie calls them artificial bullshit, and we see ads in Hazbin that show that val and vel make and sell them. I also think husk would have been the overlord 'of greed' back before he lost his soul to alastor, which also fits into my headcanon that with velvette being the youngest of the overlords and having died around the 2000s/2010s (I think?), husk probably lost power before she acheived overlord status with the vees, maybe even before she died, seeing as the other residents of the hotel don't seem to know who he was in his past, so maybe it's been a while since he fell off the map.

sloth - ??? we don't really have one for sloth? I don't think the gambling overlord would have fit here, so I don't think it was husk. and we don't know enough about zestial or the others for them to fit but it doesn't feel like zestial's vibe? like, the closest we have is him not wanting to fight the angels, but that was for lack of information, rather than laziness.

so please, season two, solidify this idea for me because I love the symmetry of it and it's killing me that sloth is unfulfilled.

Canon songs that would be altered in the RAMverse:

Stayed Gone – Obviously. The change could be as simple and Val and Velvette taking over Vox's part and the tone being less fun and more threatening, or something more complicated. They wouldn't be going on Vox's propaganda campaign though, they'd just be squaring up to fight before Al starts taunting them over the radio. Might just stay between them and Al, but it could be fun to give Vox a chance to sing too, probably with Alastor.

It Starts With Sorry – Pentious isn't immediately caught in RAM, so if ISWS happens, it's months down the line. Would probably change significantly, since he chooses to defect from the Vees and might be willingly coming clean to Charlie.

Respectless – Val gets a guest verse since he decided to actually show up to the meeting on the off chance Alastor decided to show his face. His part is somewhere in between "bigging up Velvette" and "just straight up threatening Husk."

Finale – Vox is still a part of the hotel crew and sings with them during their verses. Val and Vel might be celebrating Alastor's supposed defeat and preparing to go rescue Vox (until Alastor shows back up at the last minute), or their part might be more serious, like Al's monologue.

murder on the dancefloor ~ ❤️ 🦋 📺

fanart i did a while ago that i forgot to post here oop

(I have a twt under the same name I'm more active there ❤️❤️)

This probably isn’t on Spotify, but I wanted to mention it anyway because it fit the vibe of this AU:

Eleanor Forte Lite - Video Killed The Radio Star (Cover) by Olivia Meower on YouTube

Aside from the lyrics being very fitting (just switch ‘video’ and ‘radio’) I am absolutely in LOVE with how Eleanor Forte eerily sings the song. It gives me the impression that Eleanor Forte murdered Hatsune Miku to steal her title of #1 Vocaloid.

At 2:03 - 2:12 when Eleanor Forte says “Hatsune Miku? Never heard of her. What is she, some kind of virus?” only adds to that theory. Especially love how the audio gets distorted and staticky from 3:17 - 3:37

The art that accompanies it is phenomenal! How Eleanor Forte stares dead-eyed at the camera is chilling. I especially like the fallen and beheaded Miku figurines in front of the TV (the fact that it’s a 50s style TV is the cherry on top). The entire video just gives me a sense of unease and mystery, like there’s a bigger, more horrific story lying underneath, just like this AU!!!

I can totally picture Alastor saying something like “Vox? Never heard of him. What is he, some kind of virus?”

Gave it a watch, it’s neat. Yes, I imagine Alastor gets immense satisfaction out of all the recent arrivals in Hell having no clue who Vox is and even some of the older sinners starting to forget about him. Condemning Vox to his former greatest fear, irrelevancy, is delicious for Al. For a while, Vox being so out-of-it that he doesn’t even register that he was once one of the most powerful overlords in Hell is delightful for Alastor, but as time goes on, he realizes that Vox being unable to understand the slight just renders it plain-old boring.

Should probably make a YouTube version of the playlist for those of you who don’t have Spotify…

They forgot to tell him

@voxaholic recommended me this song a few days ago and the lyrics are SUPER fitting, but I recently came up with something related specifically to the PV

1:02-1:10 : Alastor at the start of this AU. He's flicking through Vox's different heads and outfits from throughout the decades (the only option that's locked is Vox's human form), trying to assemble a version of Vox that's to his taste.

2:21-2:29 : Alastor after he realizes that he doesn't actually like the Vox he's created and tries to go back to the drawing board. However, as he flicks through the options, he discovers that everything is now locked.

2:30-2:37 : The interface starts corrupting. There are now no options, just Vox in his RAM look with a completely glitched out face.

LADIES, GENTLEMEN AND NON BINARY BESTIES…

WE NOW HAVE CONFIRMATION THAT THE TV MAN IS KISSABLE

REPEAT: THE TV MAN IS KISSABLE

I hc that Vox was a small-time Vaudeville child star for a few years when he was alive. Wonder if he'd ever have days where he really wants to perform for Val and Vel. Or tears up his room looking for his tap shoes. Or starts believing that Valentino and Velvette are his parents whenever they're forcing him to do something he really doesn't want to do.

Goddddd, the way Vox turned around and arched backwards into Val.... WHORE 🫵🏻 BOTTOM 🫵🏻🫵🏻🫵🏻
