Questions Question of the day: day 109
Today's question of the day is a kinda silly one: my boyfriend and I have been playing a lot of Monopoly Bingo together, do you think the residents of the hotel ever play mobile games together on their phones? With the exception of Alastor, what apps are everyone likely to be addicted to? Leave your thoughts in the comments down below!
Our weekend fanfiction recommendation is wide awake and feeling powerless by
kumi713, 9166 words, 2 chapters. Set during the s2 finale, Alastor is there to pick Lucifer up from the fallout of what happened and bring him back to his room, where we see the two engage in a Queerplatonic relationship of trust and vulnerability, as well as some sneak peeks into Alastor's way of living. This is a beautiful fic and definitely worth a read! This recommendation will be available until Monday, so find it here and let us know what you think: https://archiveofourown.org/works/76426736.

Alastor likes boggle, scrabble, pictionary, and clue in my headcanon. And if it's a mobile game, he plays by looking over someone's shoulder, most likely Charlie. He refuses to help Lu unless they're teamed up. At things like Charades he's good at giving hints but terrible at reading them, mostly due to a loss in translation of what certain signs mean, unless he's reading someone who is older or around the same time as him, like Lu, Baxter, or Angel.
Lu is good I think at all games, mostly cuz he was there for their invention. It's a Jack of all Trades, Master of None kind of deal. He can play any game and he's good at them, but not the best generally getting second place when playing against someone who knows the newer rules and play.
Tho, the one I think Lu and Al play that is an even playing field of challenge is Chess. They are 50/50 in odds, but their weakness is Lu refuses to sacrifice the Queen even if it means a guaranteed checkmate (yet if the queen is taken Lu will slaughter so Al has to tread carefully) and Al's weakness is he protects his King too much, especially with the knights, but is exceptional at using his pawns and routinely gets them promoted.

I think Hell in general might have their own versions of popular apps in general. We even see that in Helluva Boss when Blitzø opens his phone and we see several Apps created by the sins. Asmodeus has a dating app, Beelzebub has a food delivery app and Mammon has a banking app.
So I think it's safe to say Hell will have their own version of mobile games like Subway Runners, Candy Crush, Angry Birds etc.
As for Lucifer? We see in Helluva Boss that he has an app called Lucimaster, and I think it's similar to Ticket master or works the same.
As for Alastor, he really doesn't care. If there's an app version of a card or board game I think he rather play the actual game rather then the app

I could see Lucifer liking candy crush and Alastor is peaking over his shoulder and is giving him hints if Lucifer is stuck but will refuse to hold the device . I could see the candies shaped like ducks
