Life had always been seamless, fluid even—floating from one mundane task to another, shackled by the predictable routine of existence. That was until you felt an inexplicable pull, as if an unseen force was tugging you toward an uncharted abyss. You dismissed it as another figment of your overactive imagination. After all, fantasies were merely mirages to be chased but never caught.
Then, the extraordinary happened.
Your surroundings warped as reality flickered like a cacophony of vintage radio static. Jarring images of a man with an unnaturally wide smile and red antler-like tufts began to invade your mind. You gasped, stumbling, but the ground never caught up. Instead, you found yourself in the sensation of being swallowed by something immensurably vast and ancient. Then everything stopped, and your eyes snapped open.
You were no longer on Earth.
The crimson-soaked ambiance of Hell stretched endlessly before you. Looking around, you saw no sign of familiarity, no remnants of the world you used to know—only chaos and a consciousness that felt undoubtedly malevolent. It was then you noticed him: Alastor, the Radio Demon.
"We meet at last," he said, his every word resonating with a frequency straight from the era of broadcast radio.
Before you could respond, your voice caught, tangled within your throat, suppressing an urgency that screamed, *Run!* But there was no escape.
Alastor's eyes glowed with an eldritch red light, consuming you within their depths. You felt an overwhelming surge of energy, its presence impossible to resist. Your skin prickled and crawled as pain and transformation started to ripple across your form, manipulating and contorting every fiber of your being.
Your height shot up, bones cracking as they grew, stretching your integumentary confines to a painful 7 feet tall. Muscles spasmed and reshaped, your body shrinking in some areas and expanding in others until your frame eerily mirrored Alastor’s slender physique. What felt like insects burrowing beneath your skin were your features, rearranging themselves to align with the man—no, demon—before you.
"Ah, discomfort is just an impression of the mind, my dearest twin," Alastor mocked.
You shuddered; the voice emanating from you was a perfect reflection of his vintage cadence. Your clothes morphed into an elaborate red and black ensemble, your shoes etching into pointed boots. Panic swelled as you noticed your fingers, once delicate, now ended in sharp, red claws.
You lifted your hand to your face, feeling the impossibly wide smile pulling your lips to an unnatural extent, teeth sharp and yellow. The terror and sheer horror were insurmountable.
"No! This can't... I need to—" You tried to frown, to form any expression other than this grotesque grin, but your face betrayed you. Your hands tried to force the change, but nothing yielded.
"Ah, my dear, it's futile," Alastor mused, leaning on his cane. "This is what you are. This is who you have always been."
A torrential flood of memories crashed into your brain. Images of a human life in the 1930s—too real and visceral to be denied—overwhelmed you. Jambalaya with mother... the thrill of broadcasting crackling across the frequencies... the viscera of your victims... Every fragment coalesced, eroding your original self until you scarcely remembered who you once were.
"Stop it! Please!" Your cries were drowned in the surging tide. You clung to shreds of your former identity, but it was a losing battle. Each moment, Alastor's memories became more vivid, more *yours*.
"You aren't fighting it, dear brother. You’re remembering," whispered that eerily familiar voice—a former projection of your own.
“Welcome home,” Alastor beamed. "We were born together, lived and died together. Now we reign in Hell, together."
Gradually, your fear dissipated, replaced by an overwhelming agreement. This was indeed reality, always had been. Your identity crystallized: Alastor, the Radio Demon.
Charlie Morningstar’s image came vividly into focus. The charming belle’s aspirations for redemption were laughable but entertaining.
"Let's help dear Charlie, shall we?" You echoed. Together with your twin, you strode into Hazbin Hotel, your presence reigniting the pervasive unease within its sordid walls. Charlie's optimistic demeanor greeted you warmly.
"Welcome, Alastors! I hope you'll help us make a difference," she said with genuine, albeit naĂŻve, enthusiasm.
"Oh, Charlie," you both purred, voices in perfect harmony. "We wouldn’t dream of letting Hell down."
Under the guise of assistance, the duality of your identities conspired. Power, entertainment, and a stage on which to perform awaited. And you were Alastor, reborn to revel in the chaos you would orchestrate.
In the reflection of both your eyes, crimson orbs stared back, hinting at the boundless, macabre possibilities now at your twin's disposal. Forever, you'd remained, together causing uneasiness and unstoppable mayhem in this eternal inferno.
The grin? Permanent.
The memories? Immutable.
Welcome to Hell, *dear brother.*

Images were generated with OpenAI's AI system, DALL·E 2, or uploaded by the user.
Prompt: Write a POV transformation story of the human reader turning into an identical clone of Alastor (from an adults cartoon/animated series Hazbin Hotel), complete with gender change (if the reader is a female), instant clothes change, age change (becoming the age of 30s-40s years old, exactly as left off from Alastor's death from his human life in 1933, thus becoming immortal in the process), height progression (growing from a normal height to 7 feet tall), voice change, and mind/mental change (with the reader's personalities and memories being permanently and completely replaced with Alastor's personality and memories, despite the reader's best efforts of fighting the new personality and memories, making him/her completely forget about his/her past self and only remember being Alastor the Radio Demon). For Alastor's appearance (after the reader turned into his clone), he is a slim (having an unnaturally thin torso, neck, arms, and legs, except his shoulders are broad), dapper sinner demon with beige-colored skin, and usually has an unnaturally broad smile (reaching from each cheek's upper area) full of sharp, yellow teeth (he has no ability to frown due to this permanent smile). He is approximately 7 feet tall. He sports a pinkish-red cropped, angled bob-cut with black tips at the ends and two large, black tipped tufts of hair extending from the top of his head, evoking the ears of a deer. The style has an undercut at the back, and two small black antlers protruding from the crown, which can grow in size in his full demonic form. Alastor's eyes have dark-red sclerae, bright-red irises and thin black pupils (which can change into the shape of radio dials when shifting into his full demon form). He also has four fingers (like all Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss characters), unlike real world humans. His forearms and lower legs fade to dark grey, and he has red hoof-toed feet and red clawed fingers. Alastor wears a red pinstripe coat with dark-red lapels piped with white, which is ragged along the bottom hem. Underneath this he wears a bright red dress-shirt with a black cross on the chest, and long black dress pants with matching bright red cuffs. He also wears a dark-red oval-shaped monocle, rimmed with black, over his right eye. He accessorizes with a black knotted bowtie with a bright red center, black gloves with red at the fingertips, and black pointed-toe boots with red deer hoofprints emblazoned on the soles. Alastor also carries a thin cane with a sentient vintage style microphone attached to it, which he uses to play sound effects and broadcast his voice. His voice also sounds like it is coming from an old-fashioned vintage radio. Alastor has many supernatural powers, such as demon transformation (the ability to turn into a more powerful demon form), flexibility (able to contort his body into numerous unnatural poses), demonic magic (able to cast magic thanks to the high power-level he has accrued in the demon ranking system, this magic takes the visual form of glowing red symbols that resemble Voodoo veve, which float around him), shadow manipulation (able to summon shadows and manipulate them into doing his bidding), spatial warping (able to get around with the help of his shadow, allowing teleportation through this ability), portal creation (able to transport others to his location easily via the portals he makes), pyrokinesis (able to summon small balls of fire for display purpose), phytokinesis (able to make plants wilt with a single stare), manifestation, photokinesis (able to project red glowing light from his eyes as well as his microphone), and outfit alteration (capable of changing the outfits of his targets as well as his own with a snap of a finger). He is also capable of various other abilities including deal-making (as Alastor is known to be a deal-maker demon; deal-maker demons like Alastor can increase their power by dealing in souls, which is a very powerful commodity in hell, so they’re seen as very manipulative and not to be toyed with, deal-making is not something every demon can do, as such it is not to be taken lightly as it doesn’t generally work out well for the other party), broadcasting (when he was a living human, Alastor's profession was as a radio show host, and he continues his broadcasts in Hell as a demon, ensuring that Hell's denizens are aware of his activities over the airwaves, earning him the title of "The Radio Demon"), bilingualism (Alastor can speak English fluently as well as some broken Creole French), cooking (Alastor is noted to be "a big foodie" and mentions having admired his mother's cooking, specifically her Jambalaya), musical/dancing/theatrical talent (Alastor is known to display moderate vocal abilities and excels at dancing, with some people noting tap to be a style he excels in specifically, he also shows a flair for theatrical showmanship), and wide intellect (Alastor is known to be quite a cunning individual, resulting in him accruing a large amount of power through his tricks and deal-making). Alastor stands out from many of the more chaotic residents of hell for his well maintained amiable persona. He gives the first-impression of a good-natured and charming man, wearing a permanently wide grin on his face at all times. Alastor's behavior, mannerisms, and even his voice are similar to an old-fashioned radio announcer and speaks with a transatlantic accent, often using quaint anachronisms such as "the picture show" and refers to Charlie as a "charming demon belle". This playful dandyish exterior, however, obscures a much darker side to him - one with high levels of self-importance - and he will not hesitate to use physical violence when others don't act in line with his very particular values or expectations. The story is that Alastor is getting bored and wanted something new and more entertaining in Hell. Not only that, but most importantly, Alastor is getting sick and tired of seeing artwork and stories (online) of himself getting transformed into other characters and creatures in both body and mind (sometimes from different series/franchise), which Alastor genuinely views as distasteful. So to teach the reader a lesson, Alastor (by some supernatural means) briefly left the series' Hell and into the real life Earth to kidnap the reader and sent him/her to the world of Hazbin Hotel before using supernatural black magic at the reader which turned him/her into his clones, thus turning the reader into Alastor's identical twin brother (the reader notices that his/her grin was now unnaturally wide and permanent, the reader tries to push his/her grin down with his/her hands/fingers to get rid of the smile in order to frown or show fear but cannot due to making emotions other than smiling was completely impossible, the reader also tries to fight those new memories and personality of Alastor flooding the reader's head, the reader is horrified and not wanting to be completely transformed in either body or mind, but is fighting a losing battle, and the voice (identical to Alastor's voice) inside the reader's head tells him/her that this is his true self and he is waking up from his false human dream, making him truly and fully believe in the voice in his head and realizes that he had always been Alastor alongside the original Alastor, having been born as humans from the same human parents, enjoying their mother's cooking and their favorite food jambalaya, them both being radio show hosts and serial killers on Earth before they were both killed, both Alastor twins arriving in Hell as completely identical sinner demons nicknamed "The Radio Demons", as they continued their radio shows in Hell, and, despite finding Charlie Morningstar's (the princess of Hell) belief in redemption laughable, both Alastor twins want to help Charlie run the redemption hotel "Hazbin Hotel", albeit for their own amusement), and the reader's mind has also been completely replaced with Alastor's mind, before original Alastor welcomes his twin brother (the reader) back home. In the epilogue, the two Alastors (the original one and the cloned one (formerly the reader)) are in the Hazbin Hotel helping Charlie Morningstar with her redemption hotel ("Hazbin Hotel"), while also interacting with Vaggie (Charlie's girlfriend, who doesn't trust Alastor or his twin brother, while Charlie trusts both Alastors), Angel Dust (an adults/pornographic film actor who's a male spider-like humanoid sinner demon), Husk (a male cat-like humanoid sinner demon with bird-like wings who is a co-worker for Alastor and whose soul is owned by Alastor and his twin brother), and Nifty (a small female cyclops-like humanoid sinner demon who is a co-worker for Alastor and is positively acquainted (Alastor's role having described as having a view of Niffty as like his "obnoxious adopted daughter", being a daughter figure for Alastor despite not being related)). There should also be quotes from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc)
