    Summary

    “Good cooking comes from the heart!” Charlie had told them all after the group cooking disaster, her guileless eyes bright and fingers spread wide in emphasis. “It’s about taking all the love you feel inside and sharing it with the people closest to you. It’s about caring!”

    Alastor had laughed and laughed and laughed because his cooking is exquisite, and he had nothing in his chest but buzzing static and dead air and the cold skeletal lattice of a radio tower. “Don’t be ridiculous,” he’d said, utterly confident and completely unaware of the suffering that was to come. “Good cooking doesn’t come from something as trite as love. It comes from hunger.”

    Or: Alastor cooks for the hotel.

    Summary

    For the first twelve years of his life, Klaus' powers were barely useful as he was unable to see nor hear any more of the dead than shadowy figures or unintelligible voices. It was only after he took a rather nasty tumble down the stairs and broke his jaw, prompting Reginald to allow Klaus to be given a small dose of morphine, that he was able to fully connect to the plane between the living and the dead.

    An AU in which drugs have the opposite effect on Klaus' powers.
