Thank you to my best friend, Bridgee2000, for letting me build on your idea! I hope you like how it turned out.

(Alastor x Human! Reader)

Summary: Alastor was never one for romance. Finding it pointless, and far too risky with his dark hobbies. Not to mention that now, he was a literal Demon Overlord, and who would ever want to be with someone like that?

But one day, when he's spying on humans, and thinking of ways to cause them trouble, he catches sight of you.

A human who instantly makes him feel an emotion that he thought he was incapable of ever experiencing.

Alastor sighed in satisfaction as an insane smile spread across his face, and he leaned back in his seat, having thoroughly enjoyed the carnage he'd just caused.

Initially, he hadn't planned to go full on Demon on the denizens of Hell today, wanting instead to just go about his personal business for once. But then some idiot, probably a new arrival, thought it would be wise to challenge his power, and try to act like they were some big shot Overlord themselves.

But Alastor had put a stop to that very quickly, and enjoyed every second of it. Even so, he couldn't help but feel... bored?

No, that didn't seem right.

He relished the title he held, and always took great delight in the terror that others faced when he decided to cause havoc.

Plus, helping Charlie with her hotel was also a good form of entertainment, so he had that as well.

So why was he feeling an odd sense of emptiness?

Tapping a clawed hand repeatedly on the desk in his broadcasting tower, Alastor then snapped his fingers, igniting a single flame in the palm of his hand, and watched with interest as the fire danced around his fingertips.

"Hm, perhaps it's time I see what the humans are up to... Maybe I'll pay one of them a visit, and give them the fright of their life." He thought, grinning mischievously as he recited an Eldritch chant, which resulted in the red and orange flame immediately turning bright green.

A moment after that, and it split down the middle, opening to reveal a window-like view of the living world, where countless different humans could be seen currently carrying on with their daily routines, unaware that they were being watched by a powerful Demon.

The Radio Demon continued watching with curiosity as the humans either walked with each other down a park path, occasionally stopping to look at flowers or feed the ducks that swam in a nearby pond, hurried to and from shops and office buildings, stopped in cafes for lunch, or spent time outdoors with their families.

However, it wasn't long before he began to feel that odd sensation again, and decided to change the view to inside a few of the surrounding buildings.

With a simple flick of his other hand, Alastor was now watching humans move about in their offices, watch picture shows or read in their homes, and play with their animal companions.

All of this was pretty mundane, but suddenly, his attention was drawn to one human in particular, and he froze, watching with intent as she appeared in the living room of her home, pushed her bangs to the side, and withdrew two long katana blades from a black case before getting into a fighting stance in front of a training dummy.

You took in a deep breath as you closed your eyes, taking a mental note of your surroundings before reciting your favorite mantra, and striking the dummy with smooth and precise attacks.
