So last night I had a dream abt Hazbin Hotel where Alastor just completely broke down.
I don’t remember all of the details, but what I do remember is that him and Charlie were walking down the streets. I don’t know why exactly, but Alastor was kind of upset abt something? Like, upset to the point where he was actually having trouble keeping the whole smile thing up.
Eventually, Charlie catches on and asks him what’s wrong. This man pulls her into like an alleyway or smth and starts BREAKING DOWN. I’m talking genuine tears, his smile is just gone, he’s leaning against the wall for support and trying to cover his face, etc.
Charlie was surprised at this. I can’t remember why Alastor was so upset, or if he told Charlie what was wrong, but regardless, Charlie gladly comforted him.
Ik this might not be the most canon thing that can happen with Alastor, ik he’s supposed to be like a big spooky evil overlord
But goddamn what I would GIVE to have Charlie and Alastor bond like this to the point where Alastor trusts her enough to show her his true emotions <333
in my defence i'm stupid as hell your honor

Sooo, lately, I have seen a few Hoof Trim Videos on TikTok, especially from Nate the hoof guy. And those got me thinking. We do have a few characters in Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss who have hooves. Mostly the imps but also Charlie and Alastor are seen with hooves.
I know Alastor has shoes on, and it could just be drawn on his shoes, but there is also a canon merch mouse pat that shows Alastor with hooves.
So I was wondering, do they need trims for their hooves? Are there professional hoof trimers in hell? I imagine it would be just like in reality that their hooves need regular trims just like nails, but it's hard to do yourself. Also just like in the videos I've watched, there could be issues like defects or something stuck in them, that has to be professionally treated.
Most videos I've seen are about cow hooves and I think most hooves in the show are goat-like hooves or for Alastor deer hooves, so I don't know if the procedures would be the same, but it's still fun to imagine the character going to a trimmer.
Since I'm a sucker for Alastor whump and I think he is someone who wouldn't admit he needs help, even if he is in obvious discomfort, I got a specific scenario stuck in my head. He wears shoes most of the time but his hooves still get defects from time to time. And sometimes he does walk around without his shoes, especially if no one is around to see him, or maybe just when around Rosie, because it actually is good to feel his feet on the bare ground in between.
Eventually, he actually gets a bad defect and something even gets stuck in there, but he ignores it at first. At some point, he starts to feel pressure in his hoof and it's harder to walk without some discomfort. Discomfort turns into pain and he starts to lame while walking. He is careful to not let anyone notice and even goes so far as to teleport everywhere even if it is just a few steps, just so he doesn't have to walk in front of others. But the rest of the hotel does figure out what's going on. When questioning him about it he just shrugs it off, but they, especially Charlie are not happy with that at all. During some activity, she somehow gets him to walk around and notices his lameness. She privately confronts him about it and assures him there is nothing to be ashamed of, after all, she has hooves too, and experiences issues like that herself as well. She offers to call her personal hoof trimer, Nate, but he refuses at first, saying he can take care of it himself. After some arguing, she convinces him to agree, if she promises to keep this a secret.
Imagine Alastors annoyance if the hoof trimmer tells him to lie on his stomach so the heel is on top because it's easier for him to work on the hoof. At first, he regrets agreeing to it, but as soon as he feels the pressure in his foot leaving he is instantly relieved. But then the trimmer puts a block on the other claw and puts a big wrap on, and Alastor is annoyed again because he realizes even if Charlie doesn't tell anyone this will be hard to hide. However the trimmer explains, that it won't be able to heal otherwise and he will come back to check on it in a few weeks. Alastor is not happy about that news, but goes along with it anyway, since he is at least not showing lameness anymore.
Now I'm also wondering what other kinds of ailments demons with animal forms could get, that are specific to the animal they are representing?

I brought you some Alastor and wine.
He's such a fucking dork
