Southern Comfort Food, Episode 18 - Red Beans and Rice Getting someone to idly graze on food while listening to some hot goss seems to work quite well! #SouthernComfortFoodComic #radioapple #MyArt

Alastor gossips at Lucifer’s bedside while Lucifer eats. Alastor’s mug reads: “Fawn’d of puns.”

Illustration of red beans and rice. Alastor and Lucifer talk offscreen.

Alastor: You finished over half the bowl! Good to see an increase in your appetite. Ate most of the beans too.

Lucifer: AYYY I guess I WAS hungry!

Alastor: Looks like Queen Belphegor will discharge you tomorrow at this rate.

Alastor: I’m proud of you.

Alastor kisses Lucifer’s hand, and Lucifer buries his face in his other hand, blushing furiously.

Alex @gildedoak.bsky.social · 10/12/2025

I think it was the bickering, followed by “Hell’s Greatest Dad” for me. “You both wanna be her dad??? Charlie can have two dads!!” And then they got up in each other’s face, and I went, “Now kiss.” ❤️

Southern Comfort Food, Episode 17 - Chicken and Dumplings Nothing like Old Reliable from Mama's cookbook. Especially when someone's sick! In my family, our go-to is Thai-style chicken rice soup, kind of like a congee, with sautéed garlic and cilantro. #southerncomfortfoodcomic #radioapple #myart

A colored illustration of a steaming bowl of chicken and dumpling soup.

Lucifer (offscreen): Ooh! Chicken and dumplings!

Alastor (offscreen): My mother used to make this for me when I was sick. Always seemed to work like magic.

Lucifer sits upright in his hospital bed, looking over at Alastor.

Lucifer: Can I ask what her name was?

Alastor (offscreen): Her name was Marguerite.

A young black woman stands proudly with her hands on her hips, smiling at the viewer. Her hair is in a Victorian up-do and she's wearing a white, long-sleeved blouse with a ruffles around the neckline, a red brooch, and a long, light blue skirt. She's framed by multiple white daisies.

A very belated Happy Birthday to SCF, which turned 1 on April 3rd! Thank you everyone for your support! I'm so happy that this silly series about making Southern food in Hell is able to make so many of you smile and share your own food-related stories. #southerncomfortfoodcomic #radioapple

Inked sketch of chibi Lucifer and Alastor holding a plate with a three-layer cake with frosting and a single candle on top. Text reads "Happy (Belated) 1 yr!"

An oldie but a goodie Tumblr Heritage post, brought to you by the resident fangirl who is here to cheer you through your artist’s/writer’s block or pesky bouts of imposter syndrome. #myart #hazbinhotelniffty

A old Tumblr post from “bontxt-deactivated20151125” that reads: “how do draw good” followed by a list of bullet points:
- fill 14 sketchbook
- bad stuff is good stuff bc you made stuff
- do you like sparkle??? Draw sparkle
- draw what make your heart do the smiley emote
- member to drink lotsa agua or else bad time
- don’t stress friend all is well
- your art is hot like potato crisps
- don’t let anyone piss on your good mood amigo
- if they do
- eat
- them

A pencil sketch of Niffty, who stands with a giant sketchbook filled with tabs under her left arm. In her right hand, she holds a pencil the way she would a knife, ready to stab someone. There’s a manic glint in her eye as she grins, showing off her sharp teeth. Above her head is a portion of a speech bubble.

They are!! Alastor also snuck a vaguely duck-shaped fluff on top of the banana pudding.

Southern Comfort Food, Episode 16 - Apple Butter/Honeysuckle Jam I’ve never had honeysuckle jam before but it sounds delightful! #radioapple #myart #southerncomfortfoodcomic

Panel 1: Alastor enters with a tray of food, along with his shadow, who waves at Lucifer.

Alastor: Up for a snack?

Lucifer: Al!

Panel 2: Closeup of a pair of dinner rolls shaped to look like birds. There are two green and white ramekins, one filled with a golden brown spread and one with a yellow jelly.

Lucifer: (offscreen) Are these… dinner roll ducks?

Alastor: (offscreen) Indeed! With apple butter or honeysuckle jam, depending on your preference.

Panel 3: Lucifer looks down at the food fondly. There’s a large bandage visible over the front of his throat.

Lucifer: Thank you Alastor, for the food. And for running the hotel while Charlie stayed with me. It means a lot.

Panel 4: Closeup of Lucifer’s face as Alastor’s hand enters the frame, cupping Lucifer’s face and pushing some of his hair from his eyes.

Panel 5: Alastor leans forward, kissing Lucifer on the forehead. Lucifer freezes, his hands hovering over the food.

Panel 6: Just outside Lucifer’s bedroom door, Niffty stands out in the hallway, cheering silently and looking slightly insane. Text above her head reads “Silent Victory Screech.” Inside, Alastor continues to cup Lucifer’s cheek. Lucifer looks like he’s blushing hard enough to combust.

Alastor: You’re welcome. (Heart emoji)
